have executed the Guaranty of the Subsidiary Letters of Credit as well as such
other documents as the applicable Issuing Bank and/or Administrative Agent may
reasonably request (and shall have reaffirmed such guaranty from time to time
upon Administrative Agent’s request). All waivers and releases made

Credit.

Upon
receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a
drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall

on the next succeeding Business Day in an amount equal to the amount of
such drawing (the “Unreimbursed
Amount”) together with interest at the rate applicable to Reference
Rate Borrowings. If Borrower fails to so reimburse such Issuing Bank by
such time, then Administrative Agent shall withdraw funds from the
Collateral Cash Accounts in an amount equal to the sum of such
Unreimbursed Amount plus any interest and fees payable in respect thereof,
and shall remit such amounts to such Issuing Bank and Lenders, as
applicable, on behalf of Borrower, and Borrower hereby, and each other
Cash Pledgor (by each such Person’s execution of the applicable Account
Guaranty and Security Agreement), irrevocably authorizes and directs
Administrative Agent to remit such funds to such Issuing Bank on behalf of
Borrower. If for any reason any Unreimbursed Amount cannot be
funded from the Collateral Cash Accounts, then Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the Unreimbursed Amount,
and the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. In such
event, Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Reference Rate
Borrowing to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the
Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the limitations specified in Section
3.1 (other than the limitations set forth in clause (i) of Section
3.1(a)), but subject to the conditions set forth in Article
6 (other than the delivery of a Request for
Borrowing). Notwithstanding anything contained in this
Agreement to the contrary, on and after the Eighth Amendment Effective
Date, any such Reference Rate Borrowing under this Section 3.9
shall be due and payable immediately on the day of such
Borrowing. Any notice given by an Issuing Bank or
Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section
3.9(g)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in
writing; provided
that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect
the conclusiveness or binding effect of such
notice.

of all Letters of Credit and payment in full of all draws thereunder, and all
other Obligations then due and owing, the amounts then on deposit in or credited
to the Collateral Cash Accounts and any interest accrued thereon shall then be
returned to Borrower or the applicable Cash Pledgors (to the extent any funds
remain in the Collateral Cash Accounts after application of such funds as
provided above). Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, maintenance by Borrower or any other Cash
