Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”. The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”.

Any division of a limited liability company shall constitute a separate Person hereunder and under any other Financing Document (and each division of any limited liability company that is a Subsidiary, Affiliate, joint venture or any other like term shall also constitute such a Person or entity).

Section 1.04 Accounting Terms; GAAP. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP, as in effect from time to time; provided that, if the Borrower notifies the Senior Facility Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the Effective Date in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Senior Facility Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in a manner satisfactory to the Borrower and the Required Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event of an

38

accounting change requiring all leases to be capitalized, only those leases (assuming for purposes hereof that they were in existence on the Effective Date) that would constitute Capital Leases on the Effective Date shall be considered Capital Leases and all calculations and deliverables under this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall be made or delivered, as applicable, in accordance therewith.

Section 1.07 Negative Covenant Compliance and Other Calculations. For purposes of determining whether Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries comply with any exception to Article VI (Negative Covenants) (other than Section 6.07 (Debt Service Coverage Ratio)) where compliance with any such exception is based on a financial ratio or metric being satisfied as of a particular point in time, it is understood that (a) compliance shall be measured at the time when the relevant event is undertaken, as such financial ratios and metrics are intended to be “incurrence” tests and not “maintenance” tests and (b) correspondingly, any such ratio and metric shall only prohibit Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries from creating, incurring, assuming, suffering to exist or making, as the case may be, any new, for example, Liens, Indebtedness or Investments, but shall not result in any previously permitted, for example, Liens, Indebtedness or Investments ceasing to be permitted hereunder. For avoidance of doubt, with respect to determining whether Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries comply with any negative covenant in Article VI (Negative Covenants) (other than Section 6.07 (Debt Service Coverage Ratio)), to the extent that any obligation, transaction or action could be attributable to more than one exception to any such negative covenant, Borrower may categorize or re-categorize all or any portion of such obligation, transaction or action to any one or more exceptions to such negative covenant that permit such obligation, transaction or action.

Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and re-borrow Revolving Loans.

Section 2.02 Loans and Borrowings.

(a) Each Revolving Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Revolving Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.

(b) Subject to Section 2.15, each Revolving Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Swing Line Loan shall be an ABR Loan or LMIR Loan as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000.

Each Swing Line Loan shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of ten (10) Eurodollar Revolving Borrowings outstanding.

40

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

Section 2.03 Requests for Revolving Borrowings. To request a Revolving Borrowing, the Borrower shall provide the Senior Facility Agent a fully executed Borrowing Request by e-mail, or facsimile or notify the Senior Facility Agent by telephone, to be promptly confirmed by e-mail or facsimile of a fully executed Borrowing Request, (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing; provided that any such notice of an ABR Borrowing to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.05(e) may be given not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and, if telephonic, shall be confirmed promptly by e-mail or facsimile to the Senior Facility Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Senior Facility Agent and signed by the Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

If no election as to the Type of Revolving Borrowing is specified, then the requested Revolving Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

Section 2.04 Swing Line Loans.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make Swing Line Loans to the Borrower from time to time during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in the Swing Line Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding its Commitment; provided that the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to make a Swing Line Loan to refinance an outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swing Line Loans.

(b) To request a Swing Line Loan, the Borrower shall provide the Senior Facility Agent a fully executed Borrowing Request by e-mail, or facsimile or notify the Senior Facility Agent by telephone, to be promptly confirmed by e-mail or facsimile of a fully executed Borrowing Request, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swing Line Loan. Each such Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) of the Swing Line Loan, the amount of the requested Swing Line Loan and whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a LMIR Borrowing. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing of Swing Line Loans is specified, then the requested Borrowing of Swing Line Loans shall be an ABR Borrowing. The Swing Line Lender shall make each Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower by means of a credit or wire transfer of funds, as applicable, to an account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in writing to the Swing Line Lender (or, in the case of a Swing Line Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e), by remittance to the Issuing Bank) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swing Line Loan.

(c) The Swing Line Lender may by written notice given to the Senior Facility Agent not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day require the Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swing Line Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swing Line Loans in which Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Senior Facility Agent will give notice thereof to each Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swing Line Loan or Loans. Each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Senior Facility Agent, for the account of the Swing Line Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swing Line Loan or Loans. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or any reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Senior Facility Agent shall promptly pay to the Swing Line Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Senior Facility Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swing Line Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swing Line Loan shall be made to the Senior Facility Agent and not to the Swing Line Lender. Any amounts received by the Swing Line Lender from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swing Line Loan after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Senior Facility Agent; any such amounts received by the Senior Facility Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Senior Facility Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swing Line Lender, as their interests

42

may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swing Line Lender or to the Senior Facility Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swing Line Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

(A) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account or for the account of any of its Subsidiaries (subject to a sublimit of $100,000,000 in the aggregate for Letters of Credit issued for the benefit of any Unrestricted Subsidiaries), in a form reasonably acceptable to the Senior Facility Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period and (B) the Existing LC Issuing Banks and the Borrower hereby acknowledge and agree that certain letters of credit listed on Schedule 2.05 have been issued prior to the date hereof pursuant to the Existing Working Capital Facility Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, an Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Bank) to an Issuing Bank and the Senior Facility Agent (not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) an executed issuance notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day, but in no event later than the date that occurs five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date), amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit.

A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the aggregate outstanding amount of Letters of Credit issued by the relevant Issuing Bank shall not exceed such Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Commitment and (ii) the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the total Commitments.

43

Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension, it being understood that such Letter of Credit may provide for automatic extensions of such expiration date for additional periods of one year) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date, other than with the consent of the applicable Issuing Bank and unless cash collateral, as set forth in Section 2.05(k) below, shall have been granted to the applicable Issuing Bank as security therefor no later than the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit, in a manner reasonably acceptable to such Issuing Bank, in which event such cash collateralized Letter of Credit shall not have an expiration date later than one year after the Maturity Date.

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby sells to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Senior Facility Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Promptly following receipt of a notice from the Borrower requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.05(b), the Senior Facility Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s participation in such Letter of Credit.

(e) Reimbursement.

(i) If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Senior Facility Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice (each such date, an “Honor Date”); provided that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or Section 2.04 that such payment be financed with an Revolving Loan or a Swing Line Loan (and either such Loan shall be an ABR Loan) in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Revolving Loan or Swing Line Loan. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due in respect of an LC Disbursement occurring on or prior to the Maturity Date, the Senior Facility Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such

44

Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof (for the avoidance of doubt, no Lender shall have any obligation with respect to any LC Disbursement occurring after the Maturity Date). Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Senior Facility Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Senior Facility Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Senior Facility Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Senior Facility Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear.

(ii) Each Lender shall, upon receiving any notice pursuant to Section 2.05(e)(i), make funds available (and the Senior Facility Agent may apply cash collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank at the principal office designated by such Issuing Bank in an amount equal to such Lender’s LC Exposure not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the applicable Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Senior Facility Agent and Borrower), whereupon, each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan that is a ABR Loan to Borrower in such LC Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Senior Facility Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply

45

with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), each Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, each Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Senior Facility Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by e-mail or facsimile), e-mail or facsimile of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.14(d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Senior Facility Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank, and the successor Issuing Bank (provided that no consent of the replaced Issuing Bank will be required if the replaced Issuing Bank has no Letters of Credit or LC Disbursements with respect thereto outstanding, and replacement of an Issuing Bank may include replacement with another existing Issuing Bank). The Senior Facility Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.11(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank and the other Issuing Banks, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks and the other Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

46

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Senior Facility Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, the Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Senior Facility Agent, in the name of the Senior Facility Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to 102% of the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Article VII. Such deposit shall be held by the Senior Facility Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Senior Facility Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Funds held in such account shall be invested in money market funds of the Senior Facility Agent or in another investment if mutually agreed upon by the Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent, but the Senior Facility Agent shall have no other obligation to make any other investment of the funds therein. The Senior Facility Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in such account and shall be deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Senior Facility Agent accords its own property, it being understood that the Senior Facility Agent shall not have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any such funds. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Senior Facility Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which such Issuing Bank has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of the Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default as described above, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

(k) Letter of Credit Collateral Account. In the event any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding according to its terms after the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Senior Facility Agent, on or before the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit, an amount equal to 102% (or such other amount as may have been agreed with the Issuing Bank) of the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to be held in a special interest bearing cash collateral account pledged to the Senior Facility Agent for the benefit of the Issuing Bank that issued such Letter of Credit (the “Letter of Credit Collateral Account”). The Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent shall establish the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and the Borrower shall execute all documents and agreements that the Senior Facility Agent

47

reasonably requests in connection therewith to establish the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and grant the Senior Facility Agent a first priority security interest in such account and the funds therein. The Borrower hereby pledges to the Senior Facility Agent and grants the Senior Facility Agent a security interest, for the benefit of the Issuing Banks described above in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, whenever established, in all funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account from time to time, and in all proceeds thereof as security for the payment of the Borrower’s obligations to reimburse the Issuing Bank for amounts drawn on Letters of Credit expiring after the Maturity Date. Funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall be held as cash collateral for obligations described in this Section 2.05 and promptly applied by the Senior Facility Agent at the request of the Issuing Bank to any reimbursement or other obligations under Letters of Credit that exist or occur in the future during such time as the Borrower has any outstanding obligations to such Issuing Bank. To the extent that any surplus funds are held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account above the undrawn amount of any outstanding Letters of Credit, during the existence of an Event of Default, the Senior Facility Agent may (A) hold such surplus funds in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account as cash collateral or (B) apply such surplus funds to satisfy the secured obligations of the Borrower. If no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Senior Facility Agent shall release to the Borrower at the Borrower’s written request any funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account above the amount required by this Section. Funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall be invested in money market funds of the Senior Facility Agent or in another investment if mutually agreed upon by the Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent, but the Senior Facility Agent shall have no other obligation to make any other investment of the funds therein. The Senior Facility Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and shall be deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Senior Facility Agent accords its own property, it being understood that the Senior Facility Agent shall not have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any such funds. The Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent shall execute all documents and agreements that the applicable Issuing Bank requests to transfer the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, the first priority security interest in such account and the funds therein to such Issuing Bank on the Maturity Date.

(l) Existing Letters of Credit. Each Existing Letter of Credit shall be subject to the same terms and conditions herein as a Letter of Credit and shall constitute a Letter of Credit for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents. At the request of any Existing LC Issuing Bank, the Borrower and such Existing LC Issuing Bank shall amend the applicable Existing Letter of Credit as necessary to reflect the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.06 Funding of Borrowings.

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 1:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of the Senior Facility Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that (i) Loans comprising an ABR Borrowing made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.05(e) shall be made by 2:00 p.m., New York City time, and (ii) Swing Line Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. The Senior Facility Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by

48

promptly crediting or transferring by wire the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans or any Swing Line Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Senior Facility Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank.

(b) Unless the Senior Facility Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Senior Facility Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Senior Facility Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available at such time in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Senior Facility Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Senior Facility Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Senior Facility Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Senior Facility Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Senior Facility Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing and the Senior Facility Agent shall promptly refund any amount paid by the Borrower to the Senior Facility Agent as provided in this clause (including interest thereon to the extent paid by the Borrower); provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligations hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Senior Facility Agent or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default of such Lender hereunder.

Section 2.07 Interest Elections.

(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swing Line Loans, which may not be converted or continued.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Senior Facility Agent of such election by telephone, e-mail or facsimile by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and, if telephonic, shall be confirmed promptly by e-mail or facsimile to the Senior Facility Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Senior Facility Agent and signed by the Borrower.

49

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

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

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

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

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

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

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

(e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Senior Facility Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

Section 2.08 Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

(a) Unless previously terminated in accordance with the terms hereof, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

(b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Commitments.

50

(c) The Borrower shall notify the Senior Facility Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Senior Facility Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Senior Facility Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments.

Section 2.09 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Senior Facility Agent for the account of each Lender then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the Maturity Date and (ii) to the Senior Facility Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender then unpaid principal amount of each Swing Line Loan on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the fifth (5^th) Business Day after such Swing Line Loan is made.

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

(c) The Senior Facility Agent shall maintain the Register and accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Senior Facility Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The Register and the entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Senior Facility Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the case of any conflict between the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c), the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) shall control.

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a Promissory Note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Promissory Note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns). Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Promissory Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more Promissory Notes payable to the payee named therein (or, if such Promissory Note is a registered Promissory Note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

51

Section 2.10 Voluntary Prepayment of Loans.

(a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section.

(b) The Borrower shall notify the Senior Facility Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender) by telephone (confirmed by e-mail or facsimile), e-mail or facsimile of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swing Line Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided, a notice of prepayment delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Senior Facility Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. provided, further that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.08. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Senior Facility Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.14.

Section 2.11 Mandatory Prepayment of Loans.

(a) Asset Sales.

Concurrently with any prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(a), 2.11(b) or 2.11(c), the Borrower shall deliver to Senior Facility Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer demonstrating the calculation of the amount of the applicable net proceeds. In the event that the Borrower shall subsequently determine that the actual amount received exceeded the amount set forth in such certificate, the Borrower shall promptly make an additional prepayment of the Loans, and the Borrower shall concurrently therewith deliver to Senior Facility Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer demonstrating the derivation of such excess.

Section 2.12 Application of Prepayments.

(a) Application of Voluntary Prepayments. With respect to each prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.10, on the date specified in the notice of prepayment delivered pursuant to Section 2.10(b), such prepayment of the Loans shall be applied as directed by the Borrower.

54

provided, however, any participation fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided cash collateral satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.21(a) shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Applicable Percentages allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.21(a)(iv), with the balance of such fee, if any, paid to such Issuing Bank for its own account, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate set forth in the Fee Letter of such Issuing Bank, on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to un-reimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as each Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand.

The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate, the LIBOR Market Index Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Senior Facility Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.15 Effect of Benchmark Replacement.

(a) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Financing Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Senior Facility Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace LIBOR with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Senior Facility Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower so long as the Senior Facility Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Senior Facility Agent written notice that such Required Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of LIBOR with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section titled “Effect of Benchmark Transition Event” will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

The Senior Facility Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Senior Facility Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section titled “Effect of Benchmark Transition Event,” including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section titled “Effect of Benchmark Transition Event.”

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

Section 2.16 Increased Costs.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.18 (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), if any Change in Law shall:

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

(ii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or

(iii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its Loans, Loan principal, Letters of Credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

57

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, Issuing Bank or other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, Issuing Bank or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, upon the request of such Lender, Issuing Bank or other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, Issuing Bank or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, Issuing Bank or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company would have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or amounts was determined shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or such Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

Section 2.17 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10(b) and is revoked

58

in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.20, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

Section 2.18 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any Financing Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

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

(c) Without duplication of Section 2.18(a) or (b), the Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.18) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (except to the extent that such amounts were imposed or increased as a result of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Senior Facility Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Senior Facility Agent), or by the Senior Facility Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

59

(d) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Senior Facility Agent, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Senior Facility Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.04(c)(iii) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Senior Facility Agent in connection with any Financing Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Senior Facility Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Senior Facility Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Financing Document or otherwise payable by the Senior Facility Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Senior Facility Agent under this paragraph (d).

(e) As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.18, the Borrower shall deliver to the Senior Facility Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Senior Facility Agent.

(f) (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Financing Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent, at the time such Person becomes a party to this Agreement and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Senior Facility Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholdings or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Senior Facility Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Senior Facility Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.18(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

60

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

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Senior Facility Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

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

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

(III) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 to the effect that (A) such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (B) the interest payments in question are not effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business conducted by such Foreign Lender (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or applicable successor form); or

(IV) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Foreign Lender is a partnership or participating Lender granting a typical participation), executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or applicable successor form), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 or Exhibit E-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more beneficial owners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-4 on behalf of each such beneficial owner;

61

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

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

(E) if the Senior Facility Agent is a U.S. Person, it shall deliver two executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that it is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax. Otherwise, the Senior Facility Agent (including any successor Senior Facility Agent that is not a U.S. Person) shall deliver two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (with respect to any payments to be received on its own behalf) and IRS Form W-8IMY (for all other payments) certifying that it is a “U.S. branch” within the meaning of US Treasury Regulation Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv)(A) or a “Qualified Intermediary” that assumes primary withholding responsibility under Chapter 3 and Chapter 4 of the Code and for Form 1099 reporting and backup withholding and that the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business in the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Borrower to be treated as a U.S. Person with respect to such payments (and the Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent agree to so treat the Senior Facility Agent as a U.S. Person with respect to such payments), with the effect that the Borrower can make payments to the Senior Facility Agent without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States.

62

(iii) As a condition to becoming a party to this Agreement, at or before the Effective Date, each Lender shall provide the Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent with the applicable IRS Form W-9 or W-8. Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.18 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.18), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, under this Section 2.18 with respect to the Taxes or other amounts giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it reasonably deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h) For purposes of this Section 2.18, references to a Lender shall include the Senior Facility Agent and any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable Law” shall include FATCA.

Section 2.19 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.16, Section 2.17 or Section 2.18, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Senior Facility Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Senior Facility Agent at its offices at Bank of America NA, ABA No. 026 009 593, Swift Code: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Account No. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Attn: The Bank of Nova Scotia, Ref: Sabine Pass Liquefaction, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender as expressly

63

provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Section 2.16, Section 2.17, Section 2.18 and Section 10.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Senior Facility Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. Other than as provided in the definition of Interest Period, if any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars.

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

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swing Line Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swing Line Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swing Line Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swing Line Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or Participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Senior Facility Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Senior Facility Agent for the account of the Lenders or an Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Senior Facility Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in

64

accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Senior Facility Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Senior Facility Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Senior Facility Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04, Section 2.05(e), Section 2.06(b), Section 2.19(d) or Section 10.03(c), then the Senior Facility Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Senior Facility Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

Section 2.20 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts to avoid the imposition of any Taxes or other increased amounts for which the Borrower is required to pay pursuant to Section 2.16 or Section 2.18; provided, however, that such efforts shall not require the Lender or any Issuing Banks to incur any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any material respect. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.16, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.16 or Section 2.18, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If (i) any Lender (an “Increased Cost Lender”) requests compensation under Section 2.16, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18 such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five Business Days after Borrower’s request for such withdrawal, (ii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (iii) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 10.02(b) or (iv) the consent of Required Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each a “Dissenting Lender”) whose consent is required shall not have been obtained, then, with respect to each such Increased Cost Lender, Defaulting Lender or Dissenting Lender (the “Terminated Lender”), the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Senior Facility Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate (and such Lender agrees to assign and delegate), without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04),

65

all its outstanding Loans, participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans, and its Commitment, if any, in full to one or more Eligible Assignees that shall assume all such obligations (a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.04; provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Senior Facility Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender (in each case, unless such assignment would not require such consent under Section 10.04), in each case, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (ii) on the date of such assignment, the Replacement Lender shall pay to Terminated Lender an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Terminated Lender, (B) an amount equal to all unreimbursed drawings that have been funded by such Terminated Lender, together with all then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time and (C) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.12 (Fees) (but, in the case of any Defaulting Lender, subject to Section 2.13; (iii) on the date of such assignment, the Borrower shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Sections 2.16, 2.17, or 2.18 or otherwise, as if it were a prepayment (without regard to any pro rata payment obligation in respect of any other Loans); (iv) in the event such Terminated Lender is a Dissenting Lender, each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender was a Dissenting Lender; and (v) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for payment under Section 2.16 or Section 2.18, or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.18, such assignment will result in a reduction of such payments; provided, Borrower may not make such election with respect to any Terminated Lender that is also an Issuing Bank, unless, prior to the effectiveness of such election, Borrower shall have caused the outstanding Letters of Credit issued thereby to be cancelled. Upon the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender and the termination of such Terminated Lender’s Commitments, if any, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender. Each Lender agrees that if Borrower exercises its option hereunder to cause an assignment by such Lender as a Terminated Lender, such Lender shall, promptly after receipt of written notice of such election, execute and deliver all documentation necessary to effectuate such assignment in accordance with Section 10.04. In the event that a Lender does not comply with the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence within one Business Day after receipt of such notice, each Lender hereby authorizes and directs the Senior Facility Agent to execute and deliver such documentation as may be required to give effect to an assignment in accordance with Section 10.04 on behalf of a Terminated Lender and any such documentation so executed by the Senior Facility Agent shall be effective for purposes of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 10.04. A Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender or a Dissenting Lender) shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Nothing in this Section 2.20 shall be deemed to prejudice any rights that the Borrower or any Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender may have against any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender.

66

Section 2.21 Increase of Commitments.

(a) If no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of delivery of the Commitment Increase Notice (as defined below), the Borrower may at any time and from time to time request an increase of the aggregate Commitments by notice to the Senior Facility Agent in writing of the amount of such proposed increase (such notice, a “Commitment Increase Notice”); provided, however, that (i) each such increase shall be at least $10,000,000, (ii) the cumulative increase in Commitments after the Effective Date pursuant to this Section 2.21 shall not exceed $800,000,000 without the approval of the Required Lenders, (iii) the Commitment of any Lender may not be increased without such Lender’s consent and (iv) any Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender with LC Exposure or Swing Line Exposure at the time of the contemplated increase of Commitments shall have consented to such increase of commitments (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and such consent shall be deemed to have been given if any applicable Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender fails to respond within five (5) Business Days of the Borrower’s delivery of any Commitment Increase Notice. Following any Commitment Increase Notice, the Borrower may, in its sole discretion, but with the consent of the Senior Facility Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender as to any Person that is not at such time a Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), offer to any existing Lender or to one or more additional banks or financial institutions the opportunity to participate in all or a portion of the increased Commitments pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) below, as applicable. Promptly and in any event within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice from the Borrower of its desire to offer such increased Commitments to certain existing Lenders, to the additional banks or financial institutions identified therein or such additional banks or financial institutions identified by the Senior Facility Agent and approved by the Borrower, the Senior Facility Agent shall notify such proposed lenders of the opportunity to participate in all or a portion of such increased Commitments.

(b) Any Lender that accepts an offer to it by the Borrower to increase its Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.21 shall, in each case, execute a Commitment Increase Agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, with the Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent, whereupon such Lender shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement with respect to the full amount of its Commitment as so increased, and the definition of Commitment in Section 1.01 and Schedule 2.01 hereof shall be deemed to be amended to reflect such increase. No Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to increase its Commitment. Each Commitment Increase Agreement shall be irrevocable and shall be effective upon notice thereof by the Senior Facility Agent at the same time as that of all other increasing Lenders.

(c) Any additional bank or financial institution that the Borrower selects to offer participation in the increased Commitments shall execute and deliver to the Senior Facility Agent a New Lender Agreement (a “New Lender Agreement”), in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D, setting forth its Commitment, and upon the effectiveness of such New Lender Agreement, such bank or financial institution (a “New Lender”) shall become a Lender for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement, and the signature pages hereof shall be deemed to be amended to add the name of such New Lender and the definition of Commitment in Section 1.01 and Schedule 2.01 hereof shall be deemed amended to increase the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders by the Commitment of such New Lender, provided that the Commitment of any New Lender shall be an amount not less than $10,000,000. Each New Lender Agreement shall be irrevocable and shall be effective upon notice thereof by the Senior Facility Agent at the same time as that of all other New Lenders.

67

(d) The effectiveness of any Commitment Increase Agreement or New Lender Agreement shall be contingent upon receipt by the Senior Facility Agent of corporate resolutions of the Borrower in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Senior Facility Agent. Once a Commitment Increase Agreement or New Lender Agreement becomes effective, the Senior Facility Agent shall reflect the increases in the Commitments effected by such agreements by appropriate entries in the Register.

(e) Upon and after the effective date of any increase in the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.21 (the “Re-Allocation Date”), additional Revolving Loans shall be made pro rata based on the respective Commitments of the Lenders in effect on or after such Re-Allocation Date, and continuations of Loans outstanding on such Re-Allocation Date shall be effected by repayment of such Loans on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto or, in the case of ABR Loan, on the date of such increase based on the respective Commitments in effect prior to the Re-Allocation Date, and the making of new Loans of the same Type pro rata based on the respective Commitments in effect on and after such Re-Allocation Date.

(f) If on any Re-Allocation Date there is an unpaid principal amount of Eurodollar Loans, such Eurodollar Loans shall remain outstanding with the respective holders thereof until the expiration of their respective Interest Periods (unless the Borrower elects to prepay any thereof in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement), and interest on and repayments of such Eurodollar Loans will be paid thereon to the respective Lenders holding such Eurodollar Loans pro rata based on the respective principal amounts thereof outstanding.

Section 2.22 Extensions of Maturity Date; Removal of Lenders.

(a) Subject to the remaining terms and provisions of this Section 2.22, the Borrower may make one or more offers to each Lender to extend the Maturity Date (each an “Extension Offer” and any Loans subject to such extended Maturity Date, “Extended Loans”). In connection with the exercise of an Extension Offer, the Borrower may, by written notice to the Senior Facility Agent (a “Notice of Extension”) given not later than thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date, advise the Lenders that it requests an extension of the Maturity Date (such then effective Maturity Date being the “Existing Maturity Date”) by the period specified in such Notice of Extension. The Senior Facility Agent will promptly, and in any event within five

(5) Business Days of the receipt of any such Notice of Extension, notify the Lenders of the contents of each such Notice of Extension. Further, the Borrower may, by giving notice to the Senior Facility Agent and a given Defaulting Lender, elect to prepay the Loans and terminate the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender, without premium or penalty, at which time such Defaulting Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” hereunder.

(b) Each Notice of Extension shall (i) be irrevocable and (ii) constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that (A) no Event of Default or Default has occurred and is continuing, and (B) the representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such Notice of Extension, except to the extent any such representation or warranty is stated to relate to an earlier date in which case such representation and warranty will be true and correct as of such earlier date; provided, that the aforementioned materiality qualifier shall not apply to the extent any representations and warranties contain a materiality qualifier within such representation and warranty.

68

(c) In the event a Notice of Extension is given to the Senior Facility Agent as provided in Section 2.22(a) and the Senior Facility Agent notifies a Lender of the contents thereof, such Lender shall, on or before the day that is ten (10) days following the date of Senior Facility Agent’s receipt of said Notice of Extension, advise the Senior Facility Agent in writing whether or not such Lender consents to the extension requested thereby (the “Consenting Lenders”) and if any Lender fails so to advise the Senior Facility Agent, such Lender shall be deemed to have not consented to such extension.

(d) Extended Loans shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement (which, except to the extent expressly contemplated by the penultimate sentence of this Section 2.22 and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 10.02, shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the Consenting Lenders with respect to the Extended Loans) executed by the Loan Parties, the Senior Facility Agent and the Consenting Lenders.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, on any date on which any existing Loans are converted to extend the related scheduled maturity date(s) in accordance with clause (a) above, in the case of the existing Loans of each Consenting Lender, the aggregate principal amount of such existing Loans shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Loans so converted by such Consenting Lender on such date, and the Extended Loans shall be established as a separate class of Loans (together with any other Extended Loans so established on such date).

(f) The Senior Facility Agent and the Lenders hereby (i) consent to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.22 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any principal, interest, fees, or premium in respect of any Extended Loans on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Amendment) and (ii) hereby waive any requirement to obtain the consent of the Required Lenders for any Extension Amendment that is effectuated pursuant to Section 2.22(b).

(g) No conversion of Loans pursuant to any Extension Amendment in accordance with this Section 2.22 shall (i) constitute a voluntary or mandatory payment or prepayment for purposes of this Agreement or (ii) be made if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

Section 2.23 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 10.02.

69

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Senior Facility Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Senior Facility Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Senior Facility Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Senior Facility Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Banks or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Senior Facility 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 Swing Line Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Senior Facility Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Senior Facility Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained 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 exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower 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 Loans or unreimbursed LC Disbursements in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or LC Disbursements were made or created at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Disbursements owed to, 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 2.21(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 (x) shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.13(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive participation fees as provided in Section 2.11(b).

70

(iv) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, (A) the LC Exposure and Swing Line Exposure (if any) of such Defaulting Lender will be reallocated (effective no later than one Business Day after the Senior Facility Agent has actual knowledge that such Lender has become a Defaulting Lender) among the non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments (calculated as if the Defaulting Lender’s Commitment was reduced to zero and each non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment had been increased proportionately); provided that the sum of such non-Defaulting Lender’s exposure may not in any event exceed the Commitment of such Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation; and (B) 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 Loans pursuant to Section 2.04 and 2.05, the “Applicable Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided, that, (i) 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 exists; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans 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 Loans of that Lender. Subject to Section 10.18, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v) Cash Collateral; Repayment of Swing Line Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Senior Facility Agent may, or shall at the direction of the relevant Issuing Bank and/or Swing Line Lender, demand that the Borrower, and the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under Law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Exposure of such Defaulting Lender in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated portion of the Swing Line Exposure of such Defaulting Lender, (y) second, cash collateralize the LC Exposure of the Defaulting Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05(j) in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated portion of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender or (z) make other arrangements satisfactory to the Senior Facility Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Lender in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Senior Facility Agent, Swing Line Lender and the Issuing Banks agree in writing that any Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Senior Facility 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 any cash collateral), the LC Exposure and the Swing Line Exposure of the other Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Senior Facility Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.23(a)(iv)),

71

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 Borrower 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.

(c) New Swing Line Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan and (ii) the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

Section 2.24 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Financing Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Permitted Hedging Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Financing Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Financing Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Financing Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

(b) As used in this Section 2.24, the following terms have the following meanings:

72

(i) “BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such part.

(ii) “Covered Entity” means any of the following:

(A) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §252.82(b);

(B) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §47.3(b); or

(C) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §382.2(b).

(iii) “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

(iv) “QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).

Section 2.25 LIBOR Lending Unlawful. In the event that it becomes unlawful or, by reason of a Change in Law, any Lender is unable to honor its obligation to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans, then such Lender will promptly notify the Borrower of such event (with a copy to the Senior Facility Agent) and such Lender’s obligation to make or to continue Eurodollar Loans, or to convert ABR Loans into Eurodollar Loans, as the case may be, shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain Eurodollar Loans. During such period of suspension, the Loans that would otherwise be made by such Eurodollar Lender as Eurodollar Loans shall be made instead by such Lender as ABR Loans and each Eurodollar Loan made by such Lender and outstanding will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor if such Loan may lawfully remain outstanding until the end of such Interest Period, and otherwise immediately, convert into an ABR Loan. At the Borrower’s request, each Lender shall use reasonable efforts, including using reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans or to assign its rights and obligations under the Financing Documents to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate or avoid such illegality and (b) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(s) the incurrence by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (s), not to exceed $250,000,000.

89

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 6.01, in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Indebtedness pursuant to clauses (a) through (s) of this Section 6.01, the Borrower will be permitted to classify or divide such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify or redivide all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 6.01. The accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification of preferred stock as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 6.01; provided, in each such case, that the amount of any such accrual, accretion or payment is included in Debt Service of the Borrower as accrued. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6.01, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this Section 6.01 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values.

The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be:

(i) the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount;

(ii) in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the least of:

(A) the Fair Market Value of such asset at the date of determination;

(B) the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person; and

(C) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness.

Section 6.02 Liens. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create, assume, incur, permit or suffer to exist any Lien upon the Collateral, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, except for the Permitted Liens.

Section 6.03 Fundamental Changes.

(a) Neither the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary will merge or consolidate with or into any other Person, or sell, transfer or otherwise Dispose of (in one transaction or in a series of transactions) all or substantially all of its assets, except that, if at the time thereof and immediately after giving effect thereto no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(i) any Person may merge or consolidate with or into (i) the Borrower, provided that the Borrower shall be the surviving Person or (ii) any one or more Restricted Subsidiaries of the Borrower, provided that a Restricted Subsidiary shall be the surviving Person;

90

(ii) any Restricted Subsidiary may sell, transfer or otherwise Dispose of (in one transaction or in a series of transactions) all or substantially all of its assets to the Borrower or to another Restricted Subsidiary;

(iii) any Restricted Subsidiary may sell, transfer or otherwise Dispose of assets or merge or consolidate with or into another Person, in each case, which transaction is not otherwise permitted by any other clause of this Section, provided that the aggregate book value of all assets sold, transferred or otherwise Disposed of in reliance upon this clause (c) in any fiscal year shall not exceed 10% of Consolidated Total Assets as reflected in the Borrower’s audited consolidated balance sheet delivered for the most recently ended fiscal year; and

(iv) the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary may sell, transfer or otherwise Dispose of any assets related to its ammonia business.

(b) Neither the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary shall dissolve, liquidate, or take any action to amend or modify its Organizational Documents where such amendment would be adverse in any material respect to the Lenders and Issuing Banks.

Section 6.04 Asset Sales.

(a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

(i) the Borrower (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale equal to the greater of (A) the Fair Market Value of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise Disposed of and (B) an amount equal to the invested cost of the assets sold or otherwise Disposed of, less depreciation; and

(ii) at least 90% of the consideration therefor received by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash, Cash Equivalents or replacement assets or a combination thereof. For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

(A) any liabilities, as shown on the Borrower’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent consolidated balance sheet (or as would be shown on the Borrower’s consolidated balance sheet as of the date of such Asset Sale) (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Senior Debt or any Guarantee of the Senior Debt) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a written novation agreement that releases the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability therefor; and

(B) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Borrower or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents within 90 days after such Asset Sale, to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received in that conversion.

91

(b) Within 360 days after the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Borrower (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) may apply an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds:

(i) to repay Senior Debt in accordance this Agreement; or

(ii) to make any capital expenditure or to purchase replacement assets (or enter into a binding agreement to make such Capital Expenditure or to purchase such replacement assets); provided that (A) such capital expenditure or purchase is consummated within the later of (i) 360 days after the receipt of the Net Cash Proceeds from the related Asset Sale and (ii) 180 days after the date of such binding agreement and (B) if such capital expenditure or purchase is not consummated within the period set forth in subclause (A), the amount not so applied will be deemed to be Excess Proceeds.

(c) Pending the final application of any Net Cash Proceeds, the Borrower may repay Revolving Loans or otherwise invest the Net Cash Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Agreement and the Indentures.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the sale, conveyance or other Disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be governed by the provisions of Section 6.03 and not by the provisions of this Section 6.04.

Section 6.05 Project Documents and Fundamental Government Approvals.

(a) Each of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall comply in all material respects with its payment and other material obligations under the Material Project Documents and Fundamental Government Approvals, except where the failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) The Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall notify the Senior Facility Agent (i) when entering into or terminating any Material Project Documents and provide a copy of any such contract to the Senior Facility Agent in the form delivered to the 4(a)(2) Indenture Trustee and the 144A Indenture Trustee under the Indentures and (ii) promptly upon obtaining Knowledge thereof, of any Material Adverse Effect in the status of any Fundamental Government Approval.

(c) Each of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not agree to any material amendment or termination of any Material Project Document to which it is or becomes a party unless (i) a copy of such amendment or termination in the form delivered to the 4(a)(2) Indenture Trustee and the 144A Indenture Trustee under the Indentures has been delivered to the Senior Facility Agent at least 5 days in advance of the effective date thereof along with a certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower certifying that the proposed amendment or termination could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) the Borrower has obtained the consent of the Required Lenders to such amendment or termination.

92

Section 6.06 Restricted Payments. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make or agree to make, directly or indirectly, any Restricted Payments unless on the Restricted Payment Date each of the following conditions has been satisfied:

(a) no Default under Section 7.01(a) or any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as of the Restricted Payment Date or would occur as a result of the Restricted Payment;

(b) on and as of the applicable Calculation Date with respect to such Restricted Payment Date, (i) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the Calculation Period ended on the applicable Calculation Date is at least 1.25 to 1.0, and (ii) the Projected Debt Service Coverage Ratio commencing on the first day after such Calculation Date is at least 1.25 to 1.0 for the upcoming twelve month period, provided that the Borrower may, at its option, exclude any Debt Service that (x) was pre-funded by the incurrence of Indebtedness, one of the use of proceeds of which was expressly for this purpose or (y) will be funded as part of scheduled draws pursuant to the express terms of Indebtedness to be incurred during such upcoming twelve month period; and provided, further that, if the Borrower shall have excluded each month in the relevant Calculation Period from the calculation of the Debt Service Coverage Ratio pursuant to the definition of Debt Service Coverage Ratio due to a Force Majeure Event, only subclause (ii) of this clause (b) shall apply;

(c) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Senior Facility Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower (i) to the effect that all conditions for a Restricted Payment on the Restricted Payment Date have been satisfied, and (ii) setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations for computing each of the Debt Service Coverage Ratio (including, if applicable, identifying any months in which the Cash Flow Available for Debt Service and the aggregate amount required to service the Borrower’s Debt Service has been excluded in respect of a Force Majeure Event) and the Projected Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the relevant periods and stating that such calculations were prepared in good faith and were based on reasonable assumptions; and

(d) if the Borrower has been subject to a Force Majeure Event for greater than twelve consecutive months and has relied on the second proviso in the definition of Debt Service Coverage Ratio to make Restricted Payments during such twelve-month period, at least three consecutive months shall have elapsed without any Force Majeure Event before the Borrower may make Restricted Payments.

Subject to the Accounts Agreement, the Borrower may make Restricted Payments not more frequently than once per calendar month.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above and provided that no Default under Section 7.01(a) or any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as of the applicable Restricted Payment Date or would occur as a result of the Restricted Payment, the Borrower may make a Restricted Payment to the Pledgor or Sponsor to make the payment described in clause (b) of Permitted Payments to Sponsor; provided, however, that the amount so distributed for the relevant taxable year shall not exceed the net taxable income of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries multiplied by the maximum combined income tax rate applicable to an individual or corporation residing in any jurisdiction within the United States.

93

Section 6.07 Debt Service Coverage Ratio.

(a) The Borrower shall not permit the Debt Service Coverage Ratio as of the end of any fiscal quarter from and following the Initial Quarterly Payment Date to be less than 1.15 to 1.00. Not later than twenty (20) Business Days (as extended by the Senior Facility Agent, in its reasonable discretion) following the last day of each fiscal quarter following the Initial Quarterly Payment Date, the Borrower shall calculate and deliver to the Senior Facility Agent its calculation of the Debt Service Coverage Ratio. The Senior Facility Agent shall notify the Borrower in writing of any reasonable corrections which should be made to such Debt Service Coverage Ratio calculations, within ten (10) Business Days of receipt. The Borrower shall incorporate all such reasonable corrections, changes or adjustments consistent with the terms of this Agreement.

(b)

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 6.07(a), if Borrower fails to comply with Section 6.07(a), then until the 10th Business Day after delivery of the calculations specified in Section 6.07(a), Borrower shall have the right to receive cash equity contributions (directly or indirectly) from one or more of its parent companies in an aggregate amount equal to the amount that, if added to Cash Flows for the relevant period, would have been sufficient to cause compliance with Section 6.07(a) for such measurement period (an “Equity Cure”).

(ii) Borrower shall give the Senior Facility Agent written notice (the “Cure Notice”) of an Equity Cure on or before the day the Equity Cure is consummated. Borrower shall not be entitled to exercise the Equity Cure more than two times within any consecutive four fiscal quarters or more than five times in total.

(iii) Upon the delivery by Borrower of a Cure Notice, no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to exist pursuant to Section 6.07(a) (and any such Default or Event of Default shall be retroactively considered not to have existed or occurred). If the Equity Cure is not consummated within ten (10) Business Days after delivery of the calculations specified in Section 6.07(a), each such Default or Event of Default shall be deemed reinstated.

(iv) The cash amount received by Borrower pursuant to exercise of the right to make an Equity Cure shall be added to Cash Flows for the last quarter of the immediately preceding measurement period solely for purposes of recalculating compliance with Section 6.07(a) for such measurement period and of calculating the Debt Service Coverage Ratio as of the end of the next three following measurement periods; except as set forth in this Section 6.07(b) and the definition of “Cash Flows”, the Equity Cure may not be used in any other calculation for purposes of any provision under this Agreement, including Section 6.06(b). For the avoidance of doubt, an Equity Cure shall be deemed to be made on the last Business Day of the relevant measurement period even if such Equity Cure is made after such date.

94

Section 6.08 Transactions with Affiliates.

(a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into any transaction that is otherwise permitted hereunder with or for the benefit of an Affiliate (including Guarantees and assumptions of obligations of an Affiliate) (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or consideration with respect to a single transaction or a series of related transactions, in excess of $25,000,000, except:

(i) to the extent required by applicable law;

(ii) to the extent required or contemplated by the Material Project Documents or any other Project Document in existence on the Effective Date;

(iii) upon terms no less favorable to the Borrower than would be obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate, or, if no comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate is available, then on terms that are determined by the board of directors of the Borrower to be fair in light of all factors considered by said board of directors to be pertinent to the Borrower;

(iv) for any Project processing, facilities sharing, use or similar agreement with an Affiliate of the Borrower; provided, if applicable for the recovery by the Borrower, that the terms of such agreement provide for the recovery of at least the incremental Operation and Maintenance Expenses associated with operations pursuant to such agreement and the Borrower has entered into the required Security Documents; and

(v) Subordinated Indebtedness between or among the Borrower, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and/or any of their Affiliates.

Prior to entering into any agreement with an Affiliate involving aggregate consideration in excess of $50,000,000, the Borrower shall deliver to the Senior Facility Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower as to the satisfaction of the applicable condition set forth in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) of this Section 6.08(a).

(b) The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of Section 6.08(a):

(i) any employment agreement, employee benefit plan, officer or director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and payments pursuant thereto;

(ii) transactions between or among the Borrower and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries;

95

(iv) payment of reasonable directors’ fees to Persons who are not otherwise Affiliates of the Borrower;

(v) any issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Borrower to Affiliates of the Borrower;

(vi) any (A) Permitted Investments or (B) Restricted Payments that do not violate Section 6.06;

(vii) Permitted Payments to Sponsor;

(viii) any contracts, agreements or understandings existing as of the Effective Date or disclosed in the offering memorandum, and any amendments to or replacements of such contracts, agreements or understandings so long as any such amendment or replacement is not more disadvantageous to the Borrower or to the Lenders in any material respect than the original agreement as in effect on the Effective Date; and

(ix) subject to Section 6.01(a), any assignment, novation or transfer of any Train Five LNG Sales Agreement, any Train Six LNG Sales Agreement or the CMI LNG Sale and Purchase Agreement by the Borrower to an Affiliate of the Borrower and any related agreements.

Section 6.09 Business Activities. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, engage in any business or activities other than the Permitted Businesses, except to such extent as would not be material to the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

Section 6.10 Investments. No Loan Party shall make any Investment in any Person, except:

(a) any Permitted Investments; and

(b) (i) Investments made after the Closing Date in any Loan Party, (ii) Investments in any Unrestricted Subsidiary not to exceed $100,000,000 plus any amounts that are available to be distributed by Borrower pursuant to Section 6.06.

Section 6.11 Accounts. No Loan Party shall open or have any deposit accounts or securities accounts (each as defined in the UCC) other than (a) the Accounts, (b) Excluded Unsecured Accounts, and (c) any other deposit accounts or securities accounts; provided that within thirty (30) days of opening any such account in the foregoing clause (c), the applicable Loan Party shall deliver a Control Agreement to the Common Security Trustee.

97

102

After the Senior Facility Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Senior Facility 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 it was acting as Senior Facility Agent.

103

Section 8.07 Non-Reliance on Senior Facility Agent.

Section 8.08 Certain ERISA Matters.

(a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of the Senior Facility Agent, the Common Security Trustee, the Coordinating Lead Arranger and each of their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of 29 CFR § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) of one or more Employee Benefit Plans in connection with the Loans or the Commitments;

(ii) the prohibited transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable so as to exempt from the prohibitions of ERISA Section 406 and Code Section 4975, such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement;

(iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement; or

(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Senior Facility Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

104

(b) In addition, unless sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or such Lender has not provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of the Senior Facility Agent, the Common Security Trustee, the Coordinating Lead Arranger and each of their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower or any other Loan Party, that none of the Senior Facility Agent, the Common Security Trustee, the Coordinating Lead Arranger or their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Senior Facility Agent under this Agreement, any Financing Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto).

ARTICLE IX

Guarantee

Section 9.01 Guarantee of the Obligations. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.02, the Restricted Subsidiaries jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee to the Senior Facility Agent for the ratable benefit of the Beneficiaries the due and punctual payment in full of all Obligations, when the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a) or any equivalent provision in any applicable jurisdiction) (each, a “Guaranteed Obligation” and, collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

Section 9.02 Contribution by Guarantors. All Restricted Subsidiaries desire to allocate among themselves (collectively, the “Contributing Guarantors”), in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guarantee. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Restricted Subsidiary (a “Funding Guarantor”) under this Guarantee such that its Aggregate Payments exceeds its Fair Share as of such date, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each Contributing Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date. “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Contributing Guarantor to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors multiplied by (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under this Guarantee in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under this Guarantee that would not render its obligations hereunder or thereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of the United States Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state law; provided, solely for purposes of calculating the “Fair Share Contribution Amount” with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this Section 9.02, any assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (1) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of this Guarantee (including in respect of this Section 9.02),

105

minus (2) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor from the other Contributing Guarantors as contributions under this Section 9.02. The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor. The allocation among Contributing Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this Section 7.2 shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Contributing Guarantor hereunder. Each Restricted Subsidiary is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 9.02.

Section 9.03 Payment by Guarantors. Subject to Section 9.02, the Restricted Subsidiaries hereby jointly and severally agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Beneficiary may have at law or in equity against any Restricted Subsidiary by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of Borrower to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a) or any equivalent provision in any applicable jurisdiction), the Restricted Subsidiaries will upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in Cash, to the Senior Facility Agent for the ratable benefit of the Beneficiaries, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for Borrower becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code or other similar legislation in any jurisdiction, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against Borrower for such interest in the related bankruptcy case) and all other Guaranteed Obligations then owed to Beneficiaries as aforesaid.

Section 9.04 Liability of Guarantors Absolute. Each Restricted Subsidiary agrees that its obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Restricted Subsidiary agrees as follows:

(a) this Guarantee is a guarantee of payment when due and not of collectability. This Guarantee is a primary obligation of each Restricted Subsidiary and not merely a contract of surety;

(b) the Senior Facility Agent may enforce this Guarantee upon the occurrence of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between the Borrower and any Beneficiary with respect to the existence of such Event of Default;

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

106

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

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

(f) this Guarantee and the obligations of Restricted Subsidiaries hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations), including the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not any Restricted Subsidiary shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (i) any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Financing Documents, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guarantee of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations;

107

(ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to events of default) hereof, any of the other Financing Documents or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guarantee or security for the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case whether or not in accordance with the terms hereof or such Financing Document or any agreement relating to such other guarantee or security; (iii) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the application of payments received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the other Financing Documents or from the proceeds of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as collateral for indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations) to the payment of indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though any Beneficiary might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) any Beneficiary’s consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of Borrower, or any of its Subsidiaries and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) any defenses, set offs or counterclaims which Borrower may allege or assert against any Beneficiary in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury; and (viii) any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Restricted Subsidiary as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Section 9.05 Waivers by Guarantors. Each Restricted Subsidiary hereby waives, for the benefit of Beneficiaries: (a) any right to require any Beneficiary, as a condition of payment or performance by such Restricted Subsidiary, to (i) proceed against Borrower, any other guarantor (including any other Restricted Subsidiary) of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Borrower, any such other guarantor or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Beneficiary in favor of any Loan Party or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Beneficiary whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary from any cause other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon any Beneficiary’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith; (e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of such Restricted Subsidiary’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Restricted Subsidiary’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Beneficiary protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance hereof,

108

notices of default hereunder or under any Financing Document, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to Borrower and notices of any of the matters referred to in Section 9.04 and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms hereof.

Section 9.06 Guarantors’ Rights of Subrogation, Contribution, Etc. Until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, each Restricted Subsidiary hereby waives, any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Restricted Subsidiary now has or may hereafter have against Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary or any of its assets in connection with this Guarantee or the performance by such Restricted Subsidiary of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Restricted Subsidiary now has or may hereafter have against Borrower with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that any Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against Borrower, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Beneficiary. In addition, until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, each Restricted Subsidiary shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution such Restricted Subsidiary may have against any other guarantor (including any other Restricted Subsidiary) of the Guaranteed Obligations, including any such right of contribution as contemplated by Section 9.02. Each Restricted Subsidiary further agrees that, to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Restricted Subsidiary may have against Borrower or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Restricted Subsidiary may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights any Beneficiary may have against Borrower, to all right, title and interest any Beneficiary may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right any Beneficiary may have against such other guarantor. If any amount shall be paid to any Restricted Subsidiary on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights at any time when all Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been finally and paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for the Senior Facility Agent on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to the Senior Facility Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 9.07 Subordination of Other Obligations. Any Indebtedness of Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary now or hereafter held by any Restricted Subsidiary (an “Obligee Guarantor”) is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such Indebtedness collected or received by the Obligee Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall be held in trust for the Senior Facility Agent on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to the Senior Facility Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof.

109

Section 9.08 Continuing Guarantee. This Guarantee is a continuing guarantee and shall remain in effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled. Each Restricted Subsidiary hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guarantee as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations.

Section 9.09 Authority of Guarantors or Borrower. It is not necessary for any Beneficiary to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Restricted Subsidiary or Borrower or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them.

Section 9.10 Financial Condition of Borrower. Any Credit Extension may be made to Borrower or continued from time to time, and any Permitted Hedging Agreements may be entered into from time to time, in each case without notice to or authorization from any Restricted Subsidiary regardless of the financial or other condition of Borrower at the time of any such grant or continuation or at the time such Permitted Hedging Agreement is entered into, as the case may be. No Beneficiary shall have any obligation to disclose or discuss with any Restricted Subsidiary its assessment, or any Restricted Subsidiary’s assessment, of the financial condition of Borrower. Each Restricted Subsidiary has adequate means to obtain information from Borrower on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of Borrower and its ability to perform its obligations under the Financing Documents, and each Restricted Subsidiary assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of Borrower and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Restricted Subsidiary hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any Beneficiary to disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or conditions of Borrower now known or hereafter known by any Beneficiary.

Section 9.11 Bankruptcy, Etc.

(a) So long as any Guaranteed Obligations remain outstanding, no Restricted Subsidiary shall, without the prior written consent of Senior Facility Agent acting pursuant to the instructions of Required Lenders, commence or join with any other Person in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency case or proceeding of or against Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary. The obligations of Restricted Subsidiaries hereunder shall not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or terminated by any case or proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary or by any defense which Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or administrative body resulting from any such proceeding.

(b) Each Restricted Subsidiary acknowledges and agrees that any interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which accrues after the commencement of any case or proceeding referred to in clause (a) above (or, if interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of such case or proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guaranteed Obligations if

110

such case or proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guaranteed Obligations because it is the intention of Restricted Subsidiaries and Beneficiaries that the Guaranteed Obligations which are guaranteed by Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant hereto should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order which may relieve Borrower of any portion of such Guaranteed Obligations. Restricted Subsidiaries will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar Person to pay Senior Facility Agent, or allow the claim of the Senior Facility Agent in respect of, any such interest accruing after the date on which such case or proceeding is commenced.

(c) In the event that all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid by Borrower, the obligations of Restricted Subsidiaries hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) are rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from any Beneficiary as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments which are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guaranteed Obligations for all purposes hereunder.

Section 9.12 Discharge of Guarantee Upon Sale of Guarantor. If all of the Equity Interests of any Restricted Subsidiary or any of its successors in interest hereunder shall be sold or otherwise Disposed of (including by merger or consolidation) in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof to any party other than a Loan Party, then the Guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary or such successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by any Beneficiary or any other Person effective as of the time of such Asset Sale.

Section 9.13 Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 9.13 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 9.13, or otherwise under this guaranty, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 9.13 shall remain in full force and effect until the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or have been cancelled or cash collateralized in an amount equal to 102% of the amount of LC Exposure thereof. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 9.13 constitute, and this Section 9.13 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Section 10.02 Waivers; Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay by the Senior Facility Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Senior Facility Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have under the other Financing Documents and at law. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Senior Facility Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Subject to Section 10.02(c) below, neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) increase the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Bank without the written consent of such Issuing Bank, (iii) waive or reduce the principal amount of any Loan or the Borrower’s reimbursement obligation to the Issuing Bank following an LC Disbursement or waive or reduce

112

the rate of interest thereon (other than waivers of interest due under Section 2.16(d)), or waive or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender or Issuing Bank affected thereby, (iv) except as provided in Section 2.22, postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or the Borrower’s reimbursement obligation to the Issuing Bank following an LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment or Letter of Credit Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender and Issuing Bank affected thereby, (v) change Section 2.19(b) or Section 2.19(c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (vi) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders,” “LC Exposure,” “Revolving Credit Exposure,” “Swing Line Exposure,” and “Applicable Percentage” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, (vii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or all or substantially all of the Restricted Subsidiaries from their guaranty obligations under Article IX without the written consent of all Lenders and Issuing Banks (provided that, this clause (vii) shall not apply with respect to any Restricted Subsidiary that is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with this Agreement) or (viii) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Loan Party of any of its rights and obligations under any Financing Document, without the written consent of all Lenders, except with respect to any such assignment or transfer resulting from any transactions permitted by Section 6.03; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Senior Facility Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swing Line Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Senior Facility Agent, each Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended nor amounts owed to such Lender reduced (other than by payment) or the final maturity thereof extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent (1) of all Lenders or (2) of each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Financing Document, the Borrower, the Senior Facility Agent and the Common Security Trustee may, without the need to obtain consent of any other Lender or Issuing Bank, enter into an amendment to this Agreement and the other Financing Documents to (i) effectuate any Permitted Indebtedness satisfying the conditions of Section 6.01, (ii) permit the extensions of credit from time to time thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, as applicable, and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof (including, by administrative modifications to the “Required Lender” definition and related definitions), (iii) to permit the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to the terms of Section 2.15 or (iv) (x) correct or cure any ambiguities, errors, omissions, mistakes, inconsistencies or defects jointly identified by the Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent, (y) to effect administrative changes of a technical or immaterial nature, or (z) to fix incorrect cross-references or similar inaccuracies in this Agreement or the applicable Financing Document.

Section 10.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Senior Facility Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and their respective Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Norton ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ US LLP and one local counsel to the Senior Facility Agent and the Common Security Trustee in each jurisdiction in which security over property of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries has or will be granted in connection with the Transactions; provided that in the event of an actual or potential conflict of interest, the affected Persons shall be entitled to reimbursement of the actual, reasonable and documented fees, expenses and disbursements of one additional counsel) in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Banks in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Senior Facility Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Norton ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ US LLP and one local counsel to the Senior Facility Agent and the Common Security Trustee in each jurisdiction in which security over property of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries has or will be granted in connection with the Transactions (in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit; provided that in the event of an actual or potential conflict of interest, the affected Persons shall be entitled to reimbursement of the actual, reasonable and documented fees, expenses and disbursements of one additional counsel.

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Senior Facility Agent, the Lead Arrangers, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any liability (including any liability for damages, costs of environmental

114

remediation, fines, penalties or indemnities) of the Borrower or any Subsidiary resulting from or based upon the generation, use, handling, transportation, storage, treatment or disposal of any Hazardous Materials, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any Subsidiary and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (i) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from (A) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or (B) the material breach of such Indemnitee of its express obligations under this Agreement or any Financing Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) arise out of a dispute that is brought by an Indemnitee against another Indemnitee (other than against the Senior Facility Agent in its capacity as such) not involving any act or omission by the Borrower or its Affiliates. This Section 10.03(b) shall not apply to any Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses from any non-tax claim.

(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Senior Facility Agent, the Common Security Trustee, any Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender, any sub-agent thereof, or any Related Party of any of the foregoing under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Senior Facility Agent, the Common Security Trustee, such Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Lender, any sub-agent thereof, or any Related Party of any of the foregoing as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (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 Senior Facility Agent, the Common Security Trustee, such Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Lender or any sub-agent thereof in its capacity as such. The obligations of the Lenders to make payments pursuant to this Section 11.03(c) are several and not joint and shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. The failure of any Lender to make payments on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to do so.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each party to this Agreement agrees not to assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any other party to this Agreement, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement and the other Financing Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby and thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided, that the foregoing limitation shall not be deemed to impair or affect the indemnification obligations of the Borrower under the Financing Documents.

115

(e) No Person indemnified under this Agreement shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Financing Documents or the transaction contemplated hereby or thereby.

(f) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten (10) days after written demand therefor.

Section 10.04 Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) no Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender, the Issuing Banks, and the Senior Facility Agent (and any attempted assignment or transfer by such Loan Party without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Senior Facility Agent, the Common Security Trustee, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) (i) Any Lender may assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment, its participations in Letters of Credit, and the Loans at the time owing to it) to:

(A) any Person meeting the criteria of clause (i) of the definition of the term of “Eligible Assignee” upon the giving of notice to Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent; provided, that in the case of any assignment pursuant to this clause (A), the assignee shall have the Required Rating;

(B) any Person (x) meeting the criteria of clause (ii) of the definition of the term of “Eligible Assignee” or (y) not satisfying the Required Ratings requirement in clause (A) above, in either case, upon giving of notice to Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent.

provided, that any assignment pursuant to paragraph (b)(i)(B) above shall not be effective without the prior written consent of:

(I) so long as no Event of Default under Sections 7.01(a) or (h) has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower, provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Senior Facility Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received written notice thereof;

(II) the Senior Facility Agent; and

116

(III) the Swing Line Lender and each Issuing Bank.

(ii) Assignments pursuant to paragraph (b)(i) above shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) except in the case of an assignment to an assignee satisfying the criteria in clause (i) of “Eligible Assignee” or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment, its participations in Letters of Credit, or Loans, the sum of the amount of the Commitment, participations in Letters of Credit, and Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Senior Facility Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent otherwise consent;

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s unused Commitments, participations in Letters of Credit and outstanding Loans and rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Senior Facility Agent an Assignment and Assumption, and the assignee to each assignment shall deliver to the Senior Facility Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500;

(D) the assignee, if it is not be a Lender prior to such assignment, shall deliver to the Senior Facility Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and all documentation and other information required by bank regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” requirements;

(E) 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 Senior Facility Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Senior Facility Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Senior Facility Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. 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; and

117

(F) no assignment shall be made to (i) to any Loan Party, the Sponsor, or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of any of the foregoing, (ii) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Affiliates, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (ii), or (iii) to a natural Person.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16, Section 2.17, Section 2.18 and Section 10.03 with respect to the period during which it was a Lender); provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv) The Senior Facility Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). In addition, the Senior Facility Agent shall maintain in the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Senior Facility Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

118

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Senior Facility Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04, Section 2.05(d), Section 2.05(e), Section 2.06(b), Section 2.19(d) or Section 10.03(c), the Senior Facility Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Senior Facility Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, a Defaulting Lender or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Senior Facility Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16, Section 2.17 and Section 2.18 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.18(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.18(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.19(c) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16 or Section 2.18 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.

(iii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Financing Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have the obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any

119

Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Financing Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purpose of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank and other central banks, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

Section 10.05 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Senior Facility Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 2.16, Section 2.17, Section 2.18 and Section 10.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the Transactions, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

Section 10.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Senior Facility Agent and the Lenders 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 of this Agreement by telecopy or electronic photocopy (i.e., “PDF”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

120

Section 10.07 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.07, 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 Senior Facility Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 10.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (i) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Senior Facility Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.23 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 Senior Facility Agent and the Lenders, and (ii) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Senior Facility Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

Section 10.09 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.
