     (d) The failure of any Lender to make a Loan required to be made by it as part of any Borrowing hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on the date of the Borrowing.

     (c) Each Lender shall record the date, amount and maturity of each Loan made by it and the date and amount of each payment of principal made by the Borrower with respect thereto, and each Lender receiving a Note pursuant to this Section, if such Lender so elects in connection with any transfer or enforcement of any Note, may endorse on the schedule forming a part thereof appropriate notations to evidence the foregoing information with respect to each such Loan then outstanding; provided that neither the failure of such Lender to make any such recordation or endorsement nor any error therein shall affect the

obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any Note. Such Lender is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Borrower so to endorse any Note and to attach to and make a part of any Note a continuation of any such schedule as and when required.

(a) Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from the date such Loan is made until it becomes due, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Base Rate Margin for such day. Such interest shall be payable at maturity, quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Date prior to maturity and, with respect to the principal amount of any Base Rate Loan converted to a Euro-Dollar Loan, on the date of such conversion. Any overdue principal of or interest on any Base Rate Loan shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day.

     (b) Each Euro-Dollar Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day during each Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Euro-Dollar Margin for such day plus the London Interbank Offered Rate applicable to such Interest Period. Such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period on the last day thereof and, if such Interest Period is longer than three months, at intervals of three months after the first day thereof.

     The “London Interbank Offered Rate” applicable to any Interest Period means the rate appearing on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (or on any successor or substitute page of such page) providing rate quotations comparable to those currently provided on such page of such page, as determined by the Administrative Agent from time to time for purposes of providing quotations of interest rates applicable to dollar deposits in the London interbank market) at approximately 11:00 A.M., London time, two Euro-Dollar Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period, as the rate for Dollar deposits with a maturity comparable to such Interest Period. In the event that such rate is not available at such time for any reason, then the “London Interbank Offered Rate” for such Interest Period shall be the average (rounded upward, if necessary, to the next higher 1/100 of 1%) of the respective rates per annum at which deposits in dollars are offered by each of the Reference Banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 A.M. (London time) two Euro-Dollar Business Days before the first day of such Interest Period in an amount approximately equal to the principal amount of the Euro-Dollar Loan of such Reference Bank to which such Interest Period is to apply and for a period of time comparable to such Interest Period.

     (c) Any overdue principal of or interest on any Euro-Dollar Loan shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the higher of (i) the sum of 2% plus the Applicable Euro-Dollar Margin for such day plus the average (rounded upward, if necessary, to the next higher 1/100 of 1%) of the respective rates per annum at which one day (or, if such amount due remains unpaid more than three Euro-Dollar Business Days, then for such other period of time not longer than three months as the Administrative Agent may select) deposits in dollars in an amount approximately equal to such overdue payment due to each of the Reference Banks are offered by such Reference Bank in the London interbank market for the applicable period determined as provided above and (ii) the sum of 2% plus the Applicable Euro-Dollar Margin for such day plus the London Interbank Offered Rate applicable to such Loan at the date such payment was due.

     (d) Subject to Section 8.02 and 8.03, each Competitive Bid LIBOR Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for the Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the London Interbank Offered Rate for such Interest Period (determined in accordance with Section 2.07(b) as if the related Competitive Bid LIBOR Borrowing were a Committed Euro-Dollar Borrowing) plus (or minus) the Competitive Bid Margin quoted by the Lender making such Loan in accordance with Section 2.07(b). Each Competitive Bid Absolute Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for the Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the Competitive Bid Absolute Rate quoted by the Lender making such Loan in accordance with Section 2.03. Such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period on the last day thereof and, if such Interest Period is longer than three months, at intervals of three months

after the first day thereof. Any overdue principal of or interest on any Competitive Bid Loan shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the Base Rate for such day.

     (e) The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Loans hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the participating Lenders of each rate of interest so determined, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

     (f) Each Reference Bank agrees to use its best efforts to furnish quotations to the Administrative Agent as contemplated by this Section. If any Reference Bank does not furnish a timely quotation, the Administrative Agent shall determine the relevant interest rate on the basis of the quotation or quotations furnished by the remaining Reference Bank or Banks or, if none of such quotations is available on a timely basis, the provisions of Section 8.01 shall apply.

     Section 2.08. Mandatory Termination of Commitments. (a) The Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Termination Date.

     (b) The Term Commitments shall terminate at the close of business on the earlier of (i) the Effective Date and (ii) April 4, 2011, if the Effective Date shall not have occurred on or before such date.

     Section 2.09. Optional Prepayments. (a) Subject in the case of any Euro-Dollar Borrowing to Section 2.14, the Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:30 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of such prepayment, prepay any Group of Base Rate Loans (or any Competitive Bid Borrowing bearing interest at the Base Rate pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03) or upon at least three Euro-Dollar Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, prepay any Group of Euro-Dollar Loans, in each case in whole at any time, or from time to time in part in amounts aggregating $5,000,000 or any larger multiple of $1,000,000 by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment. Each such optional prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the Loans of the several Lenders included in such Group of Loans (or Borrowing).

     (b) Optional prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to subsection (a) above shall be applied pro rata against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of Term Loans under Section 2.06(b).

     (c) Except as provided in subsection (a) above, the Borrower may not prepay all or any portion of the principal amount of any Competitive Bid Loan prior to the maturity thereof.

     (d) Upon receipt of a notice of prepayment pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender of the contents thereof and of such Lender’s ratable share of such prepayment and such notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrower; provided, however, that a notice of prepayment may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of the proceeds from the issuance of other Debt, in which case such notice of prepayment may be revoked by the Borrower if such condition is not satisfied.

     Section 2.10. General Provisions as to Payments. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment of principal of, and interest on, the Loans, of Letter of Credit Liabilities and of fees hereunder, not later than 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date when due, in funds immediately available in New York City, to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.02. If a Fed-Wire reference or tracer number has been received, from the Borrower or otherwise, by the Administrative Agent by that time the Borrower will not be penalized for a payment received after 2:00 P.M. (New York City time). The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its ratable share of each such payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Base Rate Loans or Letter of Credit Liabilities or of fees shall be due on a day which is not a Domestic Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Domestic Business Day. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Euro-Dollar Loans shall be due on a day which is not a Euro-Dollar Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Euro-Dollar Business Day unless such Euro-Dollar Business Day falls in another calendar month, in which case the date for payment thereof shall be the next preceding Euro-Dollar Business Day. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Competitive Bid Loans shall be due on a day which is not a Euro-Dollar Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Euro-Dollar Business Day. If the date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time.

     (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have so made such payment, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

     (c) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), Section 2.10(b) or Section 2.16(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

     Section 2.11. Fees. (a) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Revolving Lenders ratably a facility fee at the Facility Fee Rate (determined daily in accordance with the Pricing Schedule) on the daily aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Exposures. Such facility fee shall accrue from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date that the Revolving Credit Exposures are reduced to zero.

     (b) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (i) for the account of the Revolving Lenders ratably a letter of credit fee accruing daily on the aggregate amount available for drawing under all outstanding Letters of Credit at the Letter of Credit Fee Rate (determined daily in accordance with the Pricing Schedule) and (ii) for the account of each Issuing Lender a letter of credit fronting fee accruing daily on the aggregate amount available for drawing under all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender at a rate per annum mutually agreed from time to time by the Borrower and such Issuing Lender.

     (c) Accrued fees under this Section shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Date and on the date of termination of the Revolving Commitments in their entirety (and, if later, the date the Revolving Credit Exposures are reduced to zero).

     Section 2.12. Reduction or Termination of Revolving Commitments. During the Revolving Credit Period, the Borrower may, upon at least three Domestic Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, (i) terminate the Revolving Commitments at any time, if the Total Outstanding Revolving Amount is equal to zero at such time or (ii) ratably reduce from time to time by an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments in excess of the Total Outstanding Revolving Amount at such time.

     Section 2.13. Method of Electing Interest Rates. (a) The Loans included in each Committed Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the type of rate specified by the Borrower in the applicable Notice of Committed Borrowing. Thereafter, the Borrower may from time to time elect to change or continue the

type of interest rate borne by each Group of Loans (subject in each case to the provisions of Article 8 and the last sentence of this subsection(a)), as follows:

     (i) if such Loans are Base Rate Loans, the Borrower may elect to convert such Loans to Euro-Dollar Loans as of any Euro-Dollar Business Day and

     (ii) if such Loans are Euro-Dollar Loans, the Borrower may elect to convert such Loans to Base Rate Loans or elect to continue such Loans as Euro-Dollar Loans for an additional Interest Period, subject to Section 2.14 in the case of any such conversion or continuation effective on any day other than the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Loans.

     Each such election shall be made by delivering a notice (a “Notice of Interest Rate Election”) to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon. (New York City time) on the third Euro-Dollar Business Day before the conversion or continuation selected in such notice is to be effective. A Notice of Interest Rate Election may, if it so specifies, apply to only a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the relevant Group of Loans; provided that (i) such portion is allocated ratably among the Loans comprising such Group of Loans and (ii) the portion to which such notice applies, and the remaining portion to which it does not apply, are each $5,000,000 or any larger multiple of $1,000,000. If no such notice is timely received prior to the end of an Interest Period, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected that all Loans having such Interest Period be converted to Base Rate Loans at the end of such Interest Period.

     (b) Each Notice of Interest Rate Election shall specify:

     (i) the Group of Loans (or portion thereof) to which such notice applies;

     (ii) the date on which the conversion or continuation selected in such notice is to be effective, which shall comply with the applicable clause of subsection (a) above;

     (iii) if the Loans comprising such Group are to be converted, the new type of Loans and, if the Loans being converted are to be Euro-Dollar Loans, the duration of the next succeeding Interest Period applicable thereto; and

     (iv) if such Loans are to be continued as Euro-Dollar Loans for an additional Interest Period, the duration of such additional Interest Period.

     Each Interest Period specified in a Notice of Interest Rate Election shall comply with the provisions of the definition of Interest Period.

     (c) Upon receipt of a Notice of Interest Rate Election from the Borrower pursuant to subsection (a) above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender of the contents thereof and such notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrower.

     (d) An election by the Borrower to change or continue the rate of interest applicable to any Group of Loans pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a “Borrowing” subject to the provisions of Section 3.02.

     Section 2.14. Funding Losses. If the Borrower makes any payment of principal with respect to any Fixed Rate Loan or any Fixed Rate Loan is converted (pursuant to Article 2, 6 or 8 or otherwise) on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto, or the last day of an applicable period fixed pursuant to Section 2.07(c), or if the Borrower fails to borrow, prepay, convert or continue any Fixed Rate Loans after notice has been given to any Lender in accordance with Section 2.04(a), 2.09 or 2.13 the Borrower shall reimburse each affected Lender within 30 days after demand for any resulting loss or expense incurred by it, including (without limitation) any loss incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third parties, but excluding loss of margin for the period after any such payment or conversion or failure to borrow, prepay, convert or continue, provided that such Lender shall have delivered to the Borrower a certificate as to the amount of such loss or expense, which certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

     Section 2.15. Computation of Interest and Fees. The facility fee paid pursuant to Section 2.11 and interest based on the Prime Rate hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All other interest and fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

     Section 2.16. Letters of Credit.

     (a) Commitment to Issue Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Issuing Lender agrees to issue Letters of Credit from time to time before the Letter of Credit Termination Date upon the request of the Borrower; provided that, immediately after each Letter of Credit is issued (i) the Total Outstanding Revolving Amount shall not exceed the Total Revolving Commitments and (ii) the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not exceed $50,000,000. Upon the date of issuance by an Issuing Lender of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have sold to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have purchased from the Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit and the related Letter of Credit Liabilities in the proportion of its Applicable Percentage.

     (b) Method for Issuance; Terms; Extensions.

     (i) The Borrower shall give the Issuing Lender notice at least three Domestic Business Days (or such shorter notice as may be acceptable to the Issuing Lender in its discretion) prior to the requested issuance of a Letter of Credit (or, in the case of renewal or extension, prior to the Issuing Lender’s deadline for notice of nonextension) specifying the date such Letter of Credit is to be issued, and describing the terms of such Letter of Credit and the nature of the transactions to be supported thereby (such notice, including any such notice given in connection with the extension of a Letter of Credit, a “Notice of Issuance”). Upon receipt of a Notice of Issuance, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the contents thereof and of the amount of such Revolving Lender’s participation in such Letter of Credit.

     (ii) The obligation of the Issuing Lender to issue each Letter of Credit shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Article 3, be subject to the conditions precedent that such Letter of Credit shall be in such form and contain such terms as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Lender and that the Borrower shall have executed and delivered such other customary instruments and agreements relating to such Letter of Credit as the Issuing Lender shall have reasonably requested; provided, however, that each Issuing Lender agrees that in the event of any inconsistency between such instruments and agreements and this Agreement the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail. The Borrower shall also pay to the Issuing Lender for its own account issuance, drawing, amendment, settlement and extension charges, if any, in the amounts and at the times as agreed between the Borrower and the Issuing Lender.

     (iii) The extension or renewal of any Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be an issuance of such Letter of Credit, and if any Letter of Credit contains a provision pursuant to which it is deemed to be extended unless notice of termination is given by the Issuing Lender, the Issuing Lender shall timely give such notice of termination unless it has theretofore timely received a Notice of Issuance and the other conditions to issuance of a Letter of Credit have also theretofore been met with respect to such extension. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or before the close of business on the date that is one year after such Letter of Credit is issued (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension); provided that (i) a Letter of Credit may contain a provision pursuant to which it is deemed to be extended on an annual basis unless notice of termination is given by the Issuing Lender and (ii) in no event will a Letter of Credit other than the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ County Letter of Credit expire (including pursuant to a renewal or extension thereof) on a date later than the Letter of Credit Termination Date; provided that the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize its obligations with

respect to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ County Letter of Credit not later than the Termination Date. Upon and subject to the posting of such Cash Collateral, the obligations of the Revolving Lenders in respect of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ County Letter of Credit shall terminate, and fees in respect thereof shall be payable solely for the account of the Issuing Lender.

     (c) Payments; Reimbursement Obligations.

     (i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and each Revolving Lender as to the amount to be paid as a result of such demand or drawing and the date such payment is to be made by the Issuing Lender (the “Payment Date”). The Borrower shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any amounts paid by the Issuing Lender upon any drawing under any Letter of Credit, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind. Such Reimbursement Obligation shall be due on the Payment Date; provided that no such payment shall be due from the Borrower any earlier than the date of receipt by it of notice of its obligation to make such payment (or, if such notice is received by the Borrower after 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on any date, on the next succeeding Domestic Business Day); and provided further that if and to the extent any such Reimbursement Obligation is not paid by the Borrower in accordance with this clause (i) or clause (ii) below on the Payment Date, then (irrespective of when notice thereof is received by the Borrower), such Reimbursement Obligation shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day from and including the Payment Date to but not including the date such Reimbursement Obligation is paid in full or converted to Base Rate Revolving Loans pursuant to clause (ii) below, at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Base Rate Revolving Loans for such day.

     (ii) If the Revolving Commitments remain in effect on the Payment Date, such Reimbursement Obligation shall, if and to the extent that the amount of such Reimbursement Obligation would be permitted as a Borrowing of Committed Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 3.02, and unless the Borrower otherwise instructs the Administrative Agent by not later than 11:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the Payment Date, convert automatically to Base Rate Revolving Loans on the Payment Date. The Administrative Agent shall, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Administrative Agent so to act on its behalf), give notice no later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on such date requesting each Revolving Lender to make, and each Revolving Lender hereby agrees to make, a Base Rate Loan, in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Reimbursement Obligation with respect to which such notice relates. Each Revolving

Lender shall make such Loan available to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.02 in immediately available funds, not later than 2:00 P.M. (New York City time), on the date specified in such notice. The Administrative Agent shall pay the proceeds of such Loans to the Issuing Lender, which shall immediately apply such proceeds to repay the Reimbursement Obligation.

     (iii) To the extent a Reimbursement Obligation is not refunded by a Revolving Lender pursuant to clause (ii) above, such Revolving Lender will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, immediately upon the Issuing Lender’s demand at any time during the period commencing after such Reimbursement Obligation arises until reimbursement therefor in full by the Borrower, an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Reimbursement Obligation, together with interest on such amounts for each day from the date of the Issuing Lender’s demand for such payment (or, if such demand is made after 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on such date, from the next succeeding Domestic Business Day) to the date of payment by such Revolving Lender of such amount at a rate of interest per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate for the first three Domestic Business Days after the date of such demand and thereafter at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate for each additional day. The Issuing Lender will pay to each Revolving Lender ratably all amounts received from the Borrower for application in payment of its Reimbursement Obligations in respect of any Letter of Credit, but only to the extent such Revolving Lender has made payment to the Issuing Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit pursuant hereto; provided that in the event such payment received by the Issuing Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Lender will return to the Issuing Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by the Issuing Lender.

     (d) Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Borrower and each Revolving Lender under subsection (c) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under all circumstances whatsoever, including without limitation the following circumstances:

     (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any Letter of Credit or any document related hereto or thereto;

     (ii) the use which may be made of the Letter of Credit by, or any acts or omission of, a beneficiary of a Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom the beneficiary may be acting);

     (iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other rights that the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary of a Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom the beneficiary may be acting), any

Revolving Lender (including the Issuing Lender) or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement or the Letter of Credit or any document related hereto or thereto or any unrelated transaction;

     (iv) any statement or any 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 whatsoever;

     (v) payment under a Letter of Credit against presentation to the Issuing Lender of documents that do not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit;

     (vi) any termination of the Revolving Commitments prior to, on or after the Payment Date for any Letter of Credit, whether at the scheduled termination thereof, by operation of Section 6.01 or otherwise; or

     (vii) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by any Revolving Lender (including the Issuing Lender), the Administrative Agent or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this subsection (viii), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to the Borrower’s or the Revolving Lender’s obligations hereunder;

provided, that this Section 2.16(d) shall not limit the rights of the Borrower under Section 2.16(e)(ii).

     (e) Indemnification; Expenses.

     (i) The Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds harmless each Revolving Lender (including each Issuing Lender) and the Administrative Agent from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which it may reasonably incur in connection with a Letter of Credit issued pursuant to this Section 2.16; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Revolving Lender (including the Issuing Lender) or the Administrative Agent, for any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses (i) to the extent such indemnification relates to relationships between or among each of, or any of, the Revolving Lenders (including each Issuing Lender), the Administrative Agent or any Assignee or Participant or (ii) to the extent found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person or the bad faith breach by such Person of any of its material obligations hereunder.

     (ii) None of the Revolving Lenders (including, subject to the proviso below, an Issuing Lender) nor the Administrative Agent nor any

of their officers or directors or employees or agents shall be liable or responsible, by reason of or in connection with the execution and delivery or transfer of or payment or failure to pay under any Letter of Credit, including without limitation any of the circumstances enumerated in subsection (d) above; provided that, notwithstanding Section 2.16(d), the Borrower shall have a claim for direct (but not consequential) damage suffered by it, to the extent finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by (x) the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in determining whether documents presented under any Letter of Credit complied with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (y) the Issuing Lender’s failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of documents strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit. 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, the Issuing Lender may, in its 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.

     (iii) Nothing in this subsection (e) is intended to limit the obligations of the Borrower under any other provision of this Agreement. To the extent the Borrower does not indemnify an Issuing Lender as required by this subsection, the Revolving Lenders agree to do so ratably in accordance with their Applicable Percentages.

     (f) Stop Issuance Notice. If the Required Revolving Lenders reasonably determine at any time that the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 would not be satisfied in respect of a Borrowing at such time, then the Required Revolving Lenders may request that the Administrative Agent issue a “Stop Issuance Notice”, and the Administrative Agent shall issue such notice to each Issuing Lender. Such Stop Issuance Notice shall be promptly withdrawn upon a determination by the Required Revolving Lenders that the circumstances giving rise thereto no longer exist. No Letter of Credit shall be issued while a Stop Issuance Notice is in effect. The Required Revolving Lenders may request issuance of a Stop Issuance Notice only if there is a reasonable basis therefor, and shall consider reasonably and in good faith a request from the Borrower for withdrawal of the same on the basis that the conditions in Section 3.02 are satisfied, provided that the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders may and shall conclusively rely upon any Stop Issuance Notice while it remains in effect.

     Section 2.17. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

     (a) Fees shall cease to accrue on the unused portion of the Revolving Commitment (if any) of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(a).

     (b) The Credit Exposure(s) of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders, the Required Revolving Lenders or the Required Term Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.07); it being understood that this clause (b) shall not affect the rights of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification under Section 9.07(a)(i), Section 9.07(a)(ii) or Section 9.07(a)(iii).

     (c) If such Lender is a Revolving Lender and any Letter of Credit Liabilities exist at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then:

     (i) provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all or a portion of the Letter of Credit Liabilities of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages, but only to the extent that the sum of all Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders’ Outstanding Revolving Committed Amounts plus such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities does not exceed the total of all Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders’ Revolving Commitments;

     (ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, within one Domestic Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent, Cash Collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Lender only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) until the earlier of the first date upon which (A) such Letter of Credit Liabilities shall no longer be outstanding, (B) such Lender shall no longer be a Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether pursuant to this Section 2.17 or Section 9.01 hereof), and (C) such Defaulting Lender shall provide Cash Collateral in respect of such Letter of Credit Liabilities.

     (e) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and (in the case of a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender) each Issuing Lender agree that such Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then (i) such Lender shall cease to be Defaulting Lender and (ii) if such Lender is a Revolving Lender, the Letter of Credit Liabilities of the Revolving Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Revolving Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Revolving Lender to hold such Revolving Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no cessation of such Lender’s Defaulting Lender status hereunder will constitute a waiver or release of

any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

then, and in every such event, the Administrative Agent shall, if requested by the Required Lenders (or, in the case of (i), after termination of the Term Commitments, if so requested by the Required Revolving Lenders), (i) by notice to the Borrower terminate the Commitments and they shall thereupon terminate, and (ii) by notice to the Borrower declare the Loans, interest accrued thereon and all other amounts payable hereunder to be, and the same shall thereupon become, immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower; provided that in the event of (A) the filing by the Borrower of a petition, or (B) an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower, in each case under the federal bankruptcy laws as now or hereafter in effect, without any notice to the Borrower or any other act by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, the Commitments shall thereupon terminate and the Loans, interest accrued thereon and all other amounts payable hereunder shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.

ARTICLE 7
The Administrative Agent

     Section 7.01. Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the Notes as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not commence any legal action or proceeding before a court of law on behalf of any Lender without such Lender’s prior written consent.

     Section 7.02. Administrative Agent and Affiliates. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Borrower as if it were not the Administrative Agent. The term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless expressly indicated, include JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) in its capacity as a Lender.

     Section 7.03. Action by Administrative Agent. The obligations of the Administrative Agent hereunder are only those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action with respect to any Default, except as expressly provided in Article 6.

     Section 7.04. Consultation with Experts. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.

     Section 7.05. Liability of Administrative Agent. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in connection herewith (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with this Agreement or any borrowing hereunder; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of the Borrower; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article 3, except receipt of items required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, the Notes or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection herewith.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

     Section 7.06. Indemnification. Each Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its Credit Exposure, indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.

     Section 7.07. Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking any action under this Agreement.

     Section 7.08. Successor Administrative Agents. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Borrower shall, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, have the right, with the consent of the Required Lenders, to appoint any of the Lenders as a successor Administrative Agent. In the event that a Default has occurred and is continuing, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint the successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed, and shall have

accepted such appointment, within 60 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as an Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder as Administrative Agent. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent.

     Section 7.09. Administrative Agent’s Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account fees in the amounts and at the times previously agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

     Section 7.10. Other Agents. Nothing in this Agreement shall impose upon any Agent other than the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as such an Agent, any obligation or liability whatsoever.

ARTICLE 8
Change in Circumstances

     Section 8.01. Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy. (a) If after (x) the date hereof, in the case of any Committed Loan or Letter of Credit or any obligation to make Committed Loans or issue or participate in any Letter of Credit, or (y) the date of the related Competitive Bid Quote, in the case of any Competitive Bid Loan, a Change in Law shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, assessment (excluding any taxes or similar assessments, which shall be governed exclusively by Section 8.04) or similar requirement (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System pursuant to Regulation D or otherwise, as herein provided) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or shall impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting its Fixed Rate Loans, its Note or its obligations to make Fixed Rate Loans or its obligations hereunder in respect of Letters of Credit and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) of making or maintaining any Fixed Rate Loan or of issuing or participating in any Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or under its Note, by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then, within 15 days after written demand therefor made through the

Administrative Agent, in the form of the certificate referred to in Section 8.01(c), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such compensation with respect to any period prior to the 30th day before the date of any such demand.

     (b) Without limiting the effect of Section 8.01(a) (but without duplication), if any Lender determines at any time after the date on which this Agreement becomes effective that a Change in Law will have the effect of increasing the amount of capital required to be maintained by such Lender (or its Parent) based on the existence of such Lender’s Loans, Commitment and/or other obligations hereunder, then the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, within 15 days after its written demand therefor made through the Administrative Agent in the form of the certificate referred to in Section 8.01(c), such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender for any reduction in the rate of return on capital of such Lender (or its Parent) as a result of such increased capital requirement; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such compensation with respect to any period prior to the 30th day before the date of any such demand; provided further, however, that to the extent (i) a Lender shall increase its level of capital above the level maintained by such Lender on the date of this Agreement and there has not been a Change in Law or (ii) there has been a Change in Law and a Lender shall increase its level of capital by an amount greater than the increase attributable (taking into consideration the same variables taken into consideration in determining the level of capital maintained by such Lender on the date of this Agreement) to such Change in Law, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount or amounts under this Agreement with respect to any such increase in capital. Thus, for example, a Lender which is “adequately capitalized” (as such term or any similar term is used by any applicable bank regulatory agency having authority with respect to such Lender) may not require the Borrower to make payments in respect of increases in such Lender’s level of capital made under the circumstances described in clause (i) or (ii) above which improve its capital position from “adequately capitalized” to “well capitalized” (as such term or any similar term is used by any applicable bank regulatory agency having authority with respect to such Lender).

     (c) Each Lender will promptly notify the Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date on which this Agreement becomes effective, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 8.01 and will designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the sole judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. A certificate of any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 8.01 and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and setting forth the basis for the determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In

determining such amount, such Lender shall act reasonably and in good faith, and may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

     Section 8.02. Substitute Rate. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, in the case of Euro-Dollar Loans or Competitive Bid LIBOR Loans, within two Euro-Dollar Business Days prior to the first day of an Interest Period none of the Reference Banks is, for any reason whatsoever, being offered Dollars for deposit in the relevant market for a period and amount relevant to the computation of the rate of interest on a Fixed Rate Loan for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Euro-Dollar Loans or Competitive Bid LIBOR Loans or, failing that, any such request for Euro-Dollar Loans will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and any affected Competitive Bid LIBOR Loans shall bear interest for the Interest Period applicable thereto at the Base Rate.

     Section 8.03. Illegality. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if, after the date on which this Agreement becomes effective, a Change in Law shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to (i) honor any Commitment it may have hereunder to make any Euro-Dollar Loan, then such Commitment shall be suspended, or (ii) maintain any Euro-Dollar Loan, then all Euro-Dollar Loans of such Lender then outstanding shall be converted into Base Rate Loans as provided in Section 8.03(b), and any remaining Commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Euro-Dollar Loans (but not other Loans) shall be immediately suspended, in either case until such Lender may again make and/or maintain Euro-Dollar Loans (as the case may be), and borrowings from such Lender, at a time when borrowings from the other Lenders are to be of Euro-Dollar Loans, shall be made, simultaneously with such borrowings from the other Lenders, by way of Base Rate Loans. Upon the occurrence of any such change, such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), and shall furnish to the Borrower in writing evidence thereof certified by such Lender. Before giving any notice pursuant to this Section 8.03, such Lender shall designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the sole reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

     (b) Any conversion of any outstanding Euro-Dollar Loan or an outstanding Competitive Bid Loan which is required under this Section 8.03 shall be effected immediately (or, if permitted by applicable law, on the last day of the Interest Period therefor).

     (c) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if, after the date on which any Competitive Bid LIBOR Loan is made, a Change in Law shall make it unlawful or impossible for the applicable Lender to maintain such Competitive Bid LIBOR Loan for the remaining term of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), and such Competitive

Bid LIBOR Loan shall bear interest at the Base Rate for the balance of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

     Section 8.04. Taxes on Payments. (a) All payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be made free and clear of and without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any present and future taxes, assessments or governmental charges imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender by the United States, or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (“Taxes”), excluding, in the case of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, (w) Taxes imposed on its net income, branch profit taxes and franchise or similar Taxes imposed in lieu of net income Taxes by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which it is organized or doing business (other than solely pursuant to this Agreement) or in which its principal office is located or, in the case of any Lender, in which its Applicable Lending Office is located, (x) backup withholding tax that is required by Section 3406 of the Internal Revenue Code (or any successor provision thereto) to be withheld from amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, (y) any withholding tax that is attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with Sections 8.04(d) and (h) and Taxes or special assessments of any kind measured by or imposed as a result of the extent and nature of the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s activities, assets, liabilities, leverage, other exposures to risk, or other similar factors and (z) Taxes imposed pursuant to FATCA (all such non-excluded Taxes being hereinafter called “Indemnified Taxes”), except as expressly provided in this Section 8.04. If any Indemnified Taxes are imposed and required by law to be deducted or withheld from any amount payable by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent (the “Withholding Agent”) to the Administrative Agent or to any Lender, then (1) the Borrower shall increase the amount of such payment so that the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, will receive a net amount (after deduction of all Indemnified Taxes) equal to the amount due hereunder, (2) the Withholding Agent shall pay such Indemnified Taxes to the appropriate Governmental Authority for the account of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and (3) as promptly as possible thereafter, the Withholding Agent shall send the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, evidence of original or certified copy of a receipt showing payment thereof, together with such additional documentary evidence as such Lender may from time to time reasonably require. If the Borrower fails to perform its obligations under (2) or (3) above, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable as a result of any such failure.

     (b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender against any present or future transfer taxes, stamp or documentary taxes, excise or property taxes, assessments or charges made by any Governmental

Authority by reason of the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of this Agreement or any Notes (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

     (c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after 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 8.04) payable or paid by such Administrative Agent or Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, 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 (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     (d) Subject to subsection (d) below, each Lender that is a foreign person (i.e. a person who is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) agrees to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), unless the Lender is not legally entitled to do so, whichever of the following is applicable: (i) duly executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, (ii) duly executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, (iii) in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate, in substantially the form of Exhibit G, or any other form approved by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to the effect that such Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code and (y) duly executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, (iv) in the case of a Lender that is not the beneficial owner of payments made under this Agreement (including a partnership) (A) executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (B) the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), and (v) of this paragraph (d) that would be required of each beneficial owner (or partner) if the beneficial owner (or partner) were a Lender; provided, however, that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more of its partners are claiming the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, the Lender may provide the certificate required under paragraph (iii) above on behalf of such partners; and (v) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by

applicable law to permit Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. The Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall each be entitled to rely on such forms in its possession until receipt of any revised or successor form pursuant to the preceding sentence.

     (e) If a Lender (including the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender) at the time it first becomes a party to this Agreement (or because of a change in an Applicable Lending Office) is subject to a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Indemnified Taxes, except to the extent that, pursuant to Section 8.04(a), amounts with respect to such Taxes were payable either to such Lender’s assignor immediately before such Lender became a party hereto or to such Lender immediately before it changed its Applicable Lending Office.

     (f) If the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Lender (including the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender) pursuant to this Section 8.04, then such Lender will change the jurisdiction of one or more Applicable Lending Offices so as to eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue if such change, in the judgment of such Lender, does not result in an unreimbursed cost and is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

     (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 8.04 (including additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section 8.04), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any 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 to such indemnified party pursuant to the previous sentence (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.04(g), in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 8.04(g) if such payment would place such indemnified party in a less favorable position (on a net after-Tax basis) than such indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section 8.04(g) 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 deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

     (h) Any Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of Internal Revenue Service form W-9 certifying, to the extent such Lender is legally entitled to do so, that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax.

     (i) If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement or any Assignment and Assumption would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 8.04(i), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

     (j) Each Lender shall severally indemnify (i) the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) and (ii) the Borrower for any Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes), in each case attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, respectively, in connection with this Agreement, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 15 days from the date the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, respectively, makes demand therefor.

Dollar Loans has been suspended or (3) if a Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower shall have the right to terminate the Commitment in full of such Lender (a “Retiring Lender”) (if still in existence) and to prepay all outstanding Loans of such Lender. Such termination and/or prepayment pursuant to this Section 9.01(a) shall be effective on the tenth Domestic Business Day following the date of a notice thereof to the Retiring Lender through the Administrative Agent, subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

     (i) in the event that on such effective date there shall be any Loan(s) of the Retiring Lender outstanding hereunder, the Borrower shall have prepaid on such date (x) the aggregate principal amount of such Loan(s) and (y) if and to the extent necessary, an additional aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans of the other Lenders such that, after giving effect to clause (iii) below, no Lender’s Outstanding Revolving Committed Amount shall exceed its Revolving Commitment and the Total Outstanding Revolving Amount shall not exceed the Total Revolving Commitments;

     (ii) in addition to the payment of the principal of the Loans held by the Retiring Lender pursuant to clause (i) above, the Borrower shall have paid such Retiring Lender all accrued interest thereon, and facility fee and any other amounts then payable to it hereunder, including, without limitation, all amounts payable by the Borrower to such Lender under Section 2.14 by reason of the prepayment of Loans pursuant to clause (i) with respect to the period ending on such effective date; provided that the provisions of Section 8.01, Section 8.04 and Section 9.04 shall survive for the benefit of any Retiring Lender; and

     (iii) in the case of termination of a Revolving Commitment, the respective Letter of Credit Liabilities of the Lenders shall be redetermined as of the effective date of such termination.

     (b) In lieu of the termination of a Lender’s Commitment and/or prepayments of its Loans pursuant to Section 9.01(a), the Borrower may notify the Administrative Agent that the Borrower desires to replace such Retiring Lender with a new bank or banks (which may be one or more of the Lenders), which will purchase the Loans and (in the case of a Revolving Lender) assume the Commitment and Letter of Credit Liabilities of the Retiring Lender. Upon the Borrower’s selection of a bank to replace a Retiring Lender, such bank’s agreement thereto and the fulfillment of the conditions to assignment and assumption set forth in Section 9.08(c)(iii) such bank shall become a Lender hereunder for all purposes in accordance with Section 9.08(c)(iii).

(a) All notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder shall be in writing (including bank wire, telex, facsimile transmission or similar writing) and shall be given to such party: (i) in the case of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at its address, facsimile number or telex number set forth on the signature pages hereof, (ii) in the case of any Lender, at its address, facsimile number or telex number set forth in its Administrative Questionnaire or (iii) in the case of any party, such other address, facsimile number or telex number as such party may hereafter specify for the purpose by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective (x) if given by telex, when such telex is transmitted to the telex number specified in this Section and the appropriate answerback is received, (y) if given by facsimile transmission, when transmitted to the facsimile number specified in this Section and confirmation of receipt is received or (z) if given by any other means, when delivered at the address specified in this Section.

     (b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Article 2 if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

     (c) Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement); provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

     Section 9.03. No Waivers. No failure or delay by either Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

     Section 9.04. Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of special counsel for the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation of this Agreement and (ii) if an Event of Default occurs, all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, in connection with such Event of Default and collection and other enforcement proceedings resulting therefrom.

     (b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, their respective affiliates and the respective directors, officers, Administrative Agents and employees of the foregoing (each an “Indemnitee”) and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs and reasonable expenses of any kind, including, without limitation, the reasonable, documented fees and disbursements of counsel, incurred by such Indemnitee in response to or in defense of any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding brought or threatened against the Administrative Agent or any Lender relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any actual or proposed use of proceeds of Loans; provided that no Indemnitee shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder (i) to the extent such indemnification relates to relationships between or among each of, or any of, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any Assignee or Participant or (ii) for such Indemnitee’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct or any bad faith breach by such Indemnitee of any of its material obligations hereunder as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

     Section 9.05. Pro Rata Treatment. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement with respect to Competitive Bid Loans or otherwise, (a) each borrowing from, and change in the Commitments of, the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to their respective Commitments, and (b) each payment and prepayment on any Group of Loans shall be made to all applicable Lenders, pro rata in accordance with the unpaid principal amount of such Loans held by each of them.

     Section 9.06. Sharing of Set-offs. Each Lender agrees that if it shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount then due with respect to the Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities held by it which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the aggregate amount then due with respect to the Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities held by such other Lender, the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall purchase such participations in the Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities held by the other Lenders, and such other adjustments shall be made, as may be required so that all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders pro rata; provided nothing in this Section shall impair the right of any Lender to exercise any right of set-off or counterclaim it may have and to apply the amount subject to such exercise to the payment of indebtedness of the Borrower other than its indebtedness under this Agreement.

     Section 9.07. Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of this Agreement or the Notes may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Borrower and the Required Lenders (and, if the rights or duties of any Agent or Issuing Lender are affected thereby, by it). Notwithstanding the foregoing,

     (a) no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by all affected Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender if and as provided in Section 2.17 or as otherwise set forth in this Section 9.07),

     (i) increase any Commitment,

     (ii) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on any Loan or the amount to be reimbursed in respect of any Letter of Credit or any interest thereon or any fees hereunder,

     (iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on any loan or for reimbursement in respect of any Letter of Credit or interest thereon or any fees hereunder or for termination of any Commitment;

     (iv) amend Section 9.08(c) to impose any additional requirements for Lender assignments;

     (v) subordinate the obligations of the Borrower hereunder in right of payment to any other Debt of the Borrower; or

     (vi) amend this Section 9.07, or any defined term used herein, so as to change the percentage of the aggregate amount of Credit Exposures which shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action under this Section or any other provision of this Agreement;

     (b) any amendment or waiver which affects solely the rights and obligations of the Revolving Lenders (including without limitation any amendment or waiver of the conditions specified in Section 3.02 at any time subsequent to the Effective Date) shall be effective if and only if such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Borrower and the Required Revolving Lenders;

     (c) any amendment or waiver which affects solely the rights and obligations of the Term Lenders shall be effective if and only if such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Borrower and the Required Term Lenders;

     (d) this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) to permit the

refinancing or replacement of all Revolving Commitments with a replacement facility under this Agreement (a “Replacement Revolving Credit Facility”); provided that (a) the aggregate amount of commitments under such Replacement Revolving Credit Facility shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the replaced Revolving Commitments, (b) the maturity date of such Replacement Revolving Credit Facility shall not be earlier than the Termination Date and (c) the terms of such Replacement Revolving Credit Facility shall not adversely affect the Term Loans (it being agreed that the pricing terms of a Replacement Revolving Credit Facility shall not be deemed to adversely affect the Term Loans). The Administrative Agent shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to a Replacement Revolving Credit Facility. For the avoidance of doubt, a Replacement Revolving Credit Facility shall not require the consent of any Person other than the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing such Replacement Revolving Credit Facility;

     (e) this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Facility (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all Term Loans with a replacement facility under this Agreement (a “Replacement Term Facility”); provided that (a) the aggregate amount of loans under such Replacement Term Facility shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the refinanced Term Loans, (b) the maturity date and weighted average life of such Replacement Term Facility shall not be earlier or shorter than the refinanced Term Loans and (c) the terms of such Replacement Term Facility shall not adversely affect the Revolving Credit Exposures (it being agreed that the pricing terms of a Replacement Term Facility shall not be deemed to adversely affect the Revolving Credit Exposures). The Administrative Agent shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to a Replacement Term Facility. For the avoidance of doubt, a Replacement Term Facility shall not require the consent of any Person other than the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Facility; and

     (f) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, make one or more offers (each, a “Loan Modification Offer”) to all Revolving Lenders or Term Lenders, as applicable, to make one or more amendments or modifications to (A) allow the maturity and scheduled amortization of the Loans and/or Commitments of Accepting Lenders (as defined below) to be extended and (B) increase the pricing with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Accepting Lenders (“Permitted Amendments”) pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Permitted Amendment is requested to become effective. Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments of the Lenders that accept the applicable Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the “Accepting Lenders”) and, in the case of any Accepting Lender, only with

respect to such Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments as to which such Lender’s acceptance has been made. The Borrower and each Accepting Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an agreement containing the terms of the Permitted Amendments (a “Loan Modification Agreement”) and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the acceptance of the Permitted Amendments and the terms and conditions thereof. The Administrative agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Loan Modification Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Loan Modification Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Permitted Amendment evidenced thereby and only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Accepting Lenders as to which such Lenders’ acceptance has been made.

     Section 9.08. Successors and Assigns; Participations; Novation. (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided that, except in accordance with Section 5.04 and 5.07, the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of all Lenders.

     (b) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, but upon prior written notification to the Borrower, at any time sell to one or more Eligible Institutions (each a “Participant”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, the Commitment of such Lender hereunder, the Letter of Credit Liabilities of such Lender and any other interest of such Lender hereunder; provided that no prior notification to the Borrower is required in connection with the sale of a participating interest in a Competitive Bid Loan. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of its Note or Notes, if any, for all purposes under this Agreement and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Borrower hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such participation agreement may provide that such Lender will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of Section 9.07(a) affecting such Participant without the consent of the Participant; provided further that such Participant shall be bound by any waiver, amendment or other decision that all Lenders shall be required to abide by pursuant to a vote by Required Lenders. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.08(d), the Borrower agrees that each

Participant shall, to the extent provided in its participation agreement, be entitled (through the applicable Lender) to the benefits of Article 8 with respect to its participating interest; provided that such Participant shall be subject to Section 9.10 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an 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 this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or, if different under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code. 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 purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by subsection (c) or (f) below shall be given effect for purposes of this Agreement only to the extent of a participating interest granted in accordance with this subsection (b).

     (c) (i) Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more Eligible Institutions (each an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes. Each Assignee shall assume all such rights and obligations pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement. In no event shall (A) the Credit Exposure of any Class of a transferor Lender or a transferee Lender (together with the Credit Exposure of such Class of any affiliate of such Lender), after giving effect to any sale pursuant to this subsection (c), be less than $5,000,000, except as may result upon the transfer by a Lender of its Credit Exposure of any Class in its entirety, or (B) any sale pursuant to this subsection (c) result in the transferee Lender (together with its affiliates) holding more than 35% of the aggregate Credit Exposures, except to the extent that the Borrower and the Administrative Agent’s consent to such sale.

     (ii) No interest may be sold by a Lender pursuant to this subsection (c) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders (solely in the case of Revolving Credit Exposure) and, so long as no Event of Default shall exist at the time, the Borrower, which consents, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided however that sales to an affiliate of such Lender, or to another Lender, will not require the consent of the Borrower. For the purposes of this subsection (c)(ii), the withholding of consent by the Borrower shall not be deemed unreasonable if based solely upon the Borrower’s desire to (A) balance relative loan exposures to such Eligible

Institution among all credit facilities of the Borrower or (B) avoid payment of any additional amounts payable to such Eligible Institution under Article 8 which would arise from such assignment. The Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by notice to the Administrative Agent within five Domestic Business Days after having received notice thereof.

     (iii) Upon (A) execution of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, (B) delivery by the transferor Lender of an executed copy thereof, together with notice that the payment referred to in clause (C) below shall have been made, to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and (C) payment by such Assignee to such transferor Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto with a Credit Exposure as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, and the transferor Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a correspondent extent, and no further consent or action by the Borrower, the Lenders or the Administrative Agents shall be required to effectuate such transfer. Each Assignee shall be bound by any waiver, amendment or other decision that all Lenders shall be required to abide by pursuant to a vote by Required Lenders.

     (iv) Upon the consummation of any transfer to an Assignee pursuant to this subsection (c), the transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that, if requested by the transferor Lender or the Assignee, a new Note or Notes shall be delivered from the Borrower to the transferor Lender and/or such Assignee. In connection with any such assignment, the Assignee or the transferor Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent an administrative fee for processing such assignment in the amount of $3,500.

     (d) No Assignee, Participant or other transferee (including any successor Applicable Lending Office) of any Lender’s rights shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 8.01 than such Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred, unless such transfer is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent or by reason of the provisions of Section 8.01 or Section 8.03 requiring such Lender to designate a different Applicable Lending Office under certain circumstances or at a time when the circumstances giving rise to such greater payment did not exist.

     (e) Each Lender may, upon the written consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, disclose to any Participant or Assignee (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrower that has been delivered to such Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or

that has been delivered to such Lender by the Borrower in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation prior to entering into this Agreement, subject in all cases to agreement by such Transferee or prospective Transferee to comply with the provisions of Section 9.15.

     (f) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 9.08 to the contrary, any Lender may assign or pledge any of its rights and interests in the Loans to a Federal Reserve Bank without the consent of the Borrower.

     Section 9.09. Visitation. Subject to restrictions imposed by applicable security clearance regulations, the Borrower will upon reasonable notice permit representatives of any Lender at such Lender’s expense to visit any of its major properties.

     Section 9.10. Collateral.
