2.2.1 The Company may notify the Administrative Agent prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day of the Company’s request to incur, on that day, a Revolving Advance hereunder. Should any amount required to be paid as interest hereunder, or as fees or other charges under this Agreement or any other agreement with any Agent or Lenders, or with respect to any other Obligation under this Agreement, become due, the same shall be deemed a request for a Revolving Advance maintained as a Floating Rate Loan as of the date such payment is due, in the amount required to pay in full such interest, fee, charge or Obligation, and such request shall be irrevocable.

2.2.2 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.2.1 above, in the event the Company desires to obtain a Term Benchmark Loan for any Advance (other than a Swing Loan), the Company shall give the Administrative Agent written notice by no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day

48

which is three (3) Business Days prior to the date such Term Benchmark Loan is to be borrowed, specifying (i) the date of the proposed borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the type of borrowing and the amount of such Advance to be borrowed, which amount shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 thereafter, and (iii) the duration of the first Interest Period therefor. Interest Periods for Term Benchmark Loans shall be for one, three or six months; provided that, if an Interest Period would end on a day that is not a Business Day, it shall end on the next succeeding Business Day unless such day falls in the next succeeding calendar month in which case the Interest Period shall end on the next preceding Business Day. Any Interest Period that begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month (or a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the last calendar month of such Interest Period) shall end on the last Business Day of the last calendar month of such Interest Period. Upon the existence of an Event of Default, and during the continuation thereof, at the option of the Administrative Agent or at the direction of the Required Lenders, no Term Benchmark Loan shall be made available to the Company. After giving effect to each requested Term Benchmark Loan, including those which are converted from a Floating Rate Loan under Section 2.2.5 below, there shall not be outstanding more than eight (8) Term Benchmark Loans, in the aggregate at any time.

2.2.3 Each Interest Period of a Term Benchmark Loan shall commence on the date such Term Benchmark Loan is made and shall end on such date as the Company may elect as set forth in Section 2.2.2 above; provided that no Interest Period shall end after the last day of the Term.

The Company shall elect the duration of each succeeding Interest Period by giving irrevocable written notice to Agent of such duration not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day which is three (3) Business Days prior to the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan. If the Administrative Agent does not receive timely notice of the Interest Period elected by the Company, the Company shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Term Benchmark Loan to a Floating Rate Loan as of the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan subject to Section 2.2.5 below.

2.2.5 The Company may, on the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period applicable to any outstanding Term Benchmark Loan, or on any Business Day with respect to Floating Rate Loans, convert any such Term Benchmark Loan into a Floating Rate Loan in the same aggregate principal amount; provided that any conversion of a Term Benchmark Loan shall be made only on the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan; provided, further, that while a Default or an Event of Default exists, at the written election of the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders, the Company shall not be permitted to convert to a Term Benchmark Loan. If the Company desires to convert a Term Benchmark Loan or a Floating Rate Loan, the Company shall give the Administrative Agent written notice by no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) (i) on the day which is three (3) Business Days prior to the date on which such conversion is to occur with respect to a conversion from a Floating Rate Loan to a Term Benchmark Loan, or (ii) on the day which is one (1) Business Day prior to the date on which such conversion is to occur (which date shall be the last Business Day of the Interest Period for the applicable Term Benchmark Loan) with respect to a conversion from a Term Benchmark Loan to a Floating Rate Loan, specifying, in each case, the date of such conversion, the Term Benchmark Loan(s) or Floating Rate Loan(s) to be converted and if the conversion is to a Term Benchmark Loan, the duration of the first Interest Period therefor.

2.2.7 The Company shall indemnify the Agents and Lenders and hold the Agents and Lenders harmless from and against any and all losses or expenses that the Agents and Lenders may sustain or incur as a consequence of any prepayment, conversion of or any default by the Company in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Term Benchmark Loan or failure by the Company to complete a borrowing of, a prepayment of or conversion of or to a Term Benchmark Loan after notice thereof has been given, including, but not limited to, any interest payable by Agents or Lenders to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its Term Benchmark Loans hereunder. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by any Agent or any Lender to the Company shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

2.2.8 Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any applicable Law, treaty, regulation or directive, or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, including without limitation any Change in Law, shall make it unlawful for Lenders or any Lender (for purposes of this Section 2.2.8, the term “Lender” shall include any Lender and the office or branch where any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender makes or maintains any Term Benchmark Loans) to make or maintain its Term Benchmark Loans, the obligation of Lenders (or such affected Lender) to make Term Benchmark Loans hereunder shall forthwith be cancelled and the Company shall, if any affected Term Benchmark Loans are then outstanding, promptly upon request from the Administrative Agent, either pay all such affected Term Benchmark Loans or convert such affected Term Benchmark Loans into Floating Rate Loans. If any such payment or conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan is made on a day that is not the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan, the Company shall pay the Administrative Agent, upon the Administrative Agent’s request, such amount or amounts set forth in Section 2.2.7 above. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the Company shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

The provisions set forth herein shall apply as if each Lender or its participants had match funded any Obligation as to which interest is accruing based on the Term Benchmark Rate by acquiring Benchmark deposits for each Interest Period in the amount of the Term Benchmark Loans.

2.3.1 All Advances shall be disbursed from whichever office or other place the Administrative Agent may designate from time to time and, together with any and all other Obligations of the Loan Parties to the Administrative Agent or Lenders, shall be charged to the Company’s Account on the Administrative Agent’s books. The proceeds of each Revolving Advance or Swing Loan requested by the Company or deemed to have been requested by the Company under Section 2.2.1, 2.3.3 or 2.26 hereof shall, (i) with respect to requested Revolving Advances, to the extent Lenders make such Revolving Advances in accordance with Section 2.2.1, 2.3.3 or 2.26 hereof, and with respect to Swing Loans made upon any request or deemed request by the Company for a Revolving Advance to the extent Swing Loan Lender makes such Swing Loan in accordance with Section 2.7(b) hereof, be made available to the Company on the day so requested by way of credit to the Company’s operating account at PNC, or such other bank as the Company may designate following notification to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available federal funds or other immediately available funds or, (ii) with respect to Revolving Advances deemed to have been requested by the Company or Swing Loans made upon any deemed request for a Revolving Advance by the Company, be disbursed to the Administrative Agent to be applied to the outstanding Obligations giving rise to such deemed request. The Company may use the Revolving Advances and Swing Loans by borrowing, prepaying and re-borrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.

2.3.2 Each borrowing of Revolving Advances shall be advanced according to the applicable Revolving Commitment Percentages of Revolving Lenders (subject to any contrary terms of Section 2.17). Each borrowing of Swing Loans shall be advanced by Swing Loan Lender alone.

2.3.3 Promptly after receipt by the Administrative Agent of a request or a deemed request for a Revolving Advance pursuant to Section 2.2.1 hereof and, with respect to Revolving Advances, to the extent the Administrative Agent elects not to provide a Swing Loan or the making of a Swing Loan would result in the aggregate amount of all outstanding Swing Loans exceeding the maximum amount permitted in Section 2.7(a) hereof, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of its receipt of such request specifying the information provided by the Company and the apportionment among Lenders of the requested Revolving Advance, as determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Lender shall remit the principal amount of each Revolving Advance to the Administrative Agent such that the Administrative Agent is able to, and the Administrative Agent shall, to the extent the applicable Lenders have made funds available to it for such purpose and subject to Section 4.2 hereof, fund such Revolving Advance to the Company in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Payment Office prior to the close of business, on the applicable borrowing date; provided that if any applicable Lender fails to remit such funds to the Administrative Agent in a timely manner, the Administrative Agent may elect in its sole discretion to fund with its own funds the Revolving Advance of such Lender on such borrowing date, and such Lender shall be subject to the repayment obligation in Section 2.3.4 hereof.

2.3.4 Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by telephone, confirmed in writing, by any Revolving Lender that such Lender will not make the amount which would constitute its applicable Revolving Commitment Percentage of the requested Revolving Advance available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) assume that such Lender has made such amount available to Agent on such date in accordance with Section 2.3.3 hereof and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company a corresponding amount. The Administrative Agent will endeavor to notify the Company of its receipt of any such notice from a Lender. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its applicable Revolving Commitment Percentage of the requested Revolving Advance available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Company severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Company through but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of (A) (x) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days) during such period as

51

quoted by the Administrative Agent, times (y) such amount or (B) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Company, the Floating Rate. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Revolving Advance to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Advance. Any payment by the Company shall be without prejudice to any claim the Company may have against a Revolving Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender or the Company with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.3.4 shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error.

2.3.5 If any Lender or Participant (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Advances, or interest thereon, or receive any Collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by set-off) in a greater proportion than any such payment to and Collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Advances, or interest thereon, and such greater proportionate payment or receipt of Collateral is not expressly permitted hereunder, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participation in such portion of each such other Lender’s Advances, or shall provide such other Lender with the benefits of any such Collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such Collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the other Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Company consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s Advances may exercise all rights of payment (including rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion, and the obligations owing to each such purchasing Lender in respect of such participation and such purchased portion of any other Lender’s Advances shall be part of the Obligations secured by the Collateral, and the obligations owing to each such purchasing Lender in respect of such participation and such purchased portion of any other Lender’s Advances shall be part of the Obligations secured by the Collateral.

2.4. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Repayment of Advances.

2.4.1 The Revolving Advances and Swing Loans shall be due and payable in full on the last day of the Term subject to earlier prepayment as herein provided.

2.5.1 If, for any day in each calendar quarter during the Term, the daily unpaid balance of the sum of Revolving Advances plus Swing Loans plus the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit (the “Usage Amount”) does not equal the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount, then the Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of Revolving Lenders based on their Revolving Commitment Percentages, a fee at a rate per annum equal to (i) 0.50% if the Usage Amount is greater than 50% of the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount and (ii) 0.75% (the “Applicable Unused Line Fee Rate”) if the Usage Amount is less than or equal to 50% of the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount, in each case, for each such day on the amount by which the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount on such day exceeds such Usage Amount (the “Unused Line Fee”). The Unused Line Fee shall be payable to the Administrative Agent in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter with respect to each day in the previous calendar quarter, and on the last day of the Term with respect to each day in the previous calendar quarter or portion thereof ending on such date, as applicable.

2.5.2 The Company agrees to pay (or cause to be paid) to the Administrative Agent such fees as separately agreed to in writing (including pursuant to the Agent Fee Letter and the True Up Fee Letter) by the Company and the Administrative Agent and/or its Affiliates.

2.6.1 The Company may at any time and from time to time prepay Floating Rate Loans, in whole or in part upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, specifying the date and amount of prepayment; provided that such prepayment obligation may be conditioned on the occurrence of any subsequent event.

Any such reduction shall be permanent.

(b) On and after the Closing Date, if the Company or any Subsidiary shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale Prepayment Event or Recovery Event (or series of related Asset Sale Prepayment Events or Recovery Events) then an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied on or prior to the fifth Business Day after such receipt (or in the case of an Asset Sale Prepayment Event or Recovery Event (or series of related Asset Sale Prepayment Events or Recovery Events) in an amount less than or equal to $50,000,000, on or prior to the date five Business Days after the date the financial statements for the fiscal quarter in which the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds for all such Asset Sale Prepayment Events or Recovery Events for the four consecutive fiscal quarter period ending with such fiscal quarter exceed $50,000,000 are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(i) or (ii)), toward the prepayment of the Advances as set forth in Section 2.6.9.

Prepayments from, and, without duplication, of amounts equal to, Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale Prepayment Event or Recovery Event by a Foreign Subsidiary (“Net Foreign Proceeds”) (to the extent otherwise required) will be limited, subject to the below, to the extent (x) the repatriation of Foreign Subsidiaries’ funds to fund such prepayments is prohibited, restricted or delayed by applicable laws or (y) repatriation of Foreign Subsidiaries’ funds to fund such prepayment could reasonably be expected to result in material adverse tax consequences to the Company and its Subsidiaries. All mandatory prepayments are subject to permissibility under (a) in the case of Foreign Subsidiaries, local law restrictions (such as restrictions relating to financial assistance, corporate benefit, restrictions on upstreaming of cash intra-group and the fiduciary and statutory duties of the directors of the relevant Subsidiaries) and (b) with respect to non-Wholly Owned Subsidiaries, organizational document restrictions, to the extent not created in contemplation of such prepayments. The non-application of any such mandatory prepayment amounts in compliance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default and such amounts shall be available for working capital purposes of the Company and its Subsidiaries, so long as, if the Net Foreign Proceeds exceed $50,000,000, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall make a prepayment hereunder as otherwise required under this Section 2.6.5 within two hundred seventy (270) days after receipt of such Net Foreign Proceeds (or such later date as agreed to by the Administrative Agent) in an amount equal to the amount of such Net Foreign Proceeds in excess of $50,000,000. The Company will undertake to use commercially reasonable efforts to overcome or eliminate any such restrictions and/or minimize any such costs of prepayment (subject to the considerations above) to make the relevant payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any prepayments made after application of the above provisions shall be net of any costs, expenses or taxes incurred by the Company and its Subsidiaries or any of its Affiliates or equity partners and arising as a result of compliance with this paragraph.

2.6.6 Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest and premium, if any, on the amount prepaid to the date of prepayment and any amounts payable under Section 3.3 in connection with such payment. Each conversion (other than a conversion of a Floating Rate Loan to a Term Benchmark Loan) pursuant to Section 2.2.5 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the amount converted to the date of conversion and any amounts payable under Section 3.3 in connection with such conversion.

2.6.7 [Reserved].

54

2.6.8 [Reserved].

2.6.9 All prepayments of the Advances shall be applied to the Advances (including cash collateralization of all Obligations relating to any outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.32.2 hereof).

2.6.10 [Reserved].

2.6.11 Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.6, any Revolving Lender may elect not to accept its pro rata portion of any amount prepaid under Section 2.6.5 pursuant to procedures reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, in which case such declined amounts shall be retained by the Company.

2.6.12 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent may, at its option, reduce the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount in connection with the application of any prepayment resulting from an Asset Sale Prepayment Event or Recovery Event to an amount that is proportionate to any reduction in the Company’s EBITDA determined on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to such Asset Sale Prepayment Event or Recovery Event; provided, however, if, at the time of such application of any prepayment resulting from such Asset Sale Prepayment Event or Recovery Event, (i) no Default or Event of Default exists and (ii) assuming the Usage Amount equals the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount, the Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance, on a Pro Forma Basis, with the financial covenants set forth in Section 6.33, the Administrative Agent shall not have the option to reduce the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount.

2.7. Swing Loans.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in order to minimize the transfer of funds between Revolving Lenders and the Administrative Agent for administrative convenience, the Administrative Agent, Revolving Lenders and Swing Loan Lender agree that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement, Swing Loan Lender may, at its election and option made in its sole discretion cancelable at any time for any reason whatsoever, make swing loan advances (“Swing Loans”) available to the Company as provided for in this Section 2.7 at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date to, but not including, the last day of the Term, in an aggregate principal amount up to but not in excess of the Maximum Swing Loan Advance Amount, provided that the outstanding aggregate principal amount of Swing Loans and the Revolving Advances at any one time outstanding shall not exceed an amount equal to the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount less the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit. All Swing Loans shall be Floating Rate Loans only. The Company may borrow (at the option and election of Swing Loan Lender), repay and re-borrow (at the option and election of Swing Loan Lender) Swing Loans and Swing Loan Lender may make Swing Loans as provided in this Section 2.7 during the period between Settlement Dates. All Swing Loans shall be evidenced by a secured promissory note (the “Swing Loan Note”) substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C hereto. Swing Loan Lender’s agreement to make Swing Loans under this Agreement is cancelable at any time for any reason whatsoever and the making of Swing Loans by Swing Loan Lender from time to time shall not create any duty or obligation, or establish any course of conduct, pursuant to which Swing Loan Lender shall thereafter be obligated to make Swing Loans in the future.

55

(b) Upon either (i) any request by the Company for a Revolving Advance made pursuant to Section 2.2.1 hereof or (ii) the occurrence of any deemed request by the Company for a Revolving Advance pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.2.1 hereof, Swing Loan Lender may elect, in its sole discretion, to have such request or deemed request treated as a request for a Swing Loan, and may advance same day funds to the Company as a Swing Loan; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided for herein, Swing Loan Lender may not make Swing Loans if Swing Loan Lender has been notified by the Administrative Agent or by Required Lenders that one or more of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.2 hereof have not been satisfied or the Revolving Commitments have been terminated for any reason.

(c) Upon the making of a Swing Loan (whether before or after the existence of a Default or an Event of Default and regardless of whether a Settlement has been requested with respect to such Swing Loan), each Revolving Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from Swing Loan Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Swing Loan in proportion to its Revolving Commitment Percentage. Swing Loan Lender or the Administrative Agent may, at any time, require the Revolving Lenders to fund such participations by means of a Settlement as provided for in Section 2.3.5 hereof. From and after the date, if any, on which any Revolving Lender is required to fund, and funds, its participation in any Swing Loans purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Revolving Lender its Revolving Commitment Percentage of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Swing Loan; provided that no Revolving Lender shall be obligated in any event to make Revolving Advances in an amount in excess of its Revolving Commitment Amount minus its Participation Commitment (taking into account any reallocations under Section 2.17 hereof) of the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit.

(d) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of Swing Loan Lender, shall demand settlement (a “Settlement”) of all or any Swing Loans with Revolving Lenders on at least a weekly basis, or on any more frequent date that the Administrative Agent elects or that Swing Loan Lender at its option exercisable for any reason whatsoever may request, by notifying Revolving Lenders of such requested Settlement by facsimile, telephonic or electronic transmission no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of such requested Settlement (the “Settlement Date”). Subject to any contrary provisions of Section 2.17 hereof, each Revolving Lender shall transfer the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the outstanding principal amount (plus interest accrued thereon to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent) of the applicable Swing Loan with respect to which Settlement is requested by the Administrative Agent, to such account of the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent may designate not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Settlement Date if requested by the Administrative Agent by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time), otherwise not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the next Business Day. Settlements may occur at any time notwithstanding that the conditions precedent to making Revolving Advances set forth in Section 4.2 hereof have not been satisfied or the Revolving Commitments shall have otherwise been terminated at such time. All amounts so transferred to the Administrative Agent shall be applied against the amount of outstanding Swing Loans and, when so applied shall constitute Revolving Advances of such Revolving Lenders accruing interest as Floating Rate Loans. If any such amount is not transferred to the Administrative Agent by any Revolving Lender on such Settlement Date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender together with interest thereon as specified in Section 2.3.4 hereof.

56

2.8. Interest Rates, Interest Payment Dates; Interest and Fee Basis.

(a) Each Floating Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the date such Advance is made or is converted from a Term Benchmark Loan into a Floating Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.2.5 to but excluding the date it becomes due or is converted into a Term Benchmark Loan pursuant to Section 2.2.5 hereof, at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate for such day. Each Term Benchmark Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Term Benchmark Rate determined for such Interest Period.

(b) Interest accrued on each Floating Rate Loan shall be payable on each Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date and at maturity. Interest accrued on each Term Benchmark Loan shall be payable on the last day of its applicable Interest Period, on any date on which the Term Benchmark Loan is repaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest accrued on each Term Benchmark Loan having an Interest Period longer than three months shall also be payable on the last day of each three-month interval during such Interest Period.

(c) Interest shall be payable for the day an Advance is made but not for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is received prior to 1:00 p.m. (local time) at the place of payment. If any payment of principal of or interest or fee on an Advance shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, except as otherwise provided in the definition of Interest Period, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a principal payment, such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment.

(d) All interest and fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period such interest or fee is payable over a year comprised of 360 days or, in the case of Floating Rate Loans based on the Prime Rate, 365/366 days.

(e) Changes in the rate of interest on that portion of any Advance maintained as a Floating Rate Loan will take effect simultaneously with each change in the Alternate Base Rate. Each Term Benchmark Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from and including the first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined as applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan.

2.9. Rates Applicable After An Event of Default. During the existence of any Specified Event of Default, at the option of the Administrative Agent or at the direction of Required Lenders (or, in the case of any Event of Default under Section 7.6 or 7.7, immediately and automatically upon the existence of any such Event of Default without the requirement of any affirmative action by any party), the Obligations shall bear interest at the rate otherwise applicable to such Obligations plus 2.00% per annum.

2.10. Pro Rata Payment, Method of Payment; Proceeds of Collateral.

(a) [Reserved].

(b) Application of Proceeds of Collateral and Guaranty. All amounts received under any Guaranty and all proceeds received by the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent from the sale or other liquidation of the Collateral when an Event of Default exists shall first be applied as payment of the accrued and unpaid fees of the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent hereunder and then to all other unpaid or unreimbursed Obligations (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in accordance with Section 10.6) and any Protective Advances funded by any Agent with respect to the Collateral under or pursuant to the terms of this Agreement owing to (a) the Administrative Agent in its capacity as Administrative Agent and (b) the Collateral Agent

57

in its capacity as Collateral Agent, and then any remaining amount of such proceeds shall be distributed as follows:

(i) first, to the Swing Loan Lender for the payment of all of the Obligations consisting of accrued interest and the outstanding principal amount of Swing Loans;

(ii) second, to the Secured Parties (other than Defaulting Lenders), pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid amounts of Obligations (other than interest in respect of Swing Loans paid pursuant to clause (i) above) then owing to such Secured Parties, including Cash Management Obligations and Hedge Obligations (to the extent reserves for such Cash Management Obligations and Hedge Obligations have been established by the Administrative Agent) and the payment or cash collateralization of any outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with Section 2.32.2, until all the Obligations then owing to such Secured Parties have been paid and satisfied in full in cash;

(iii) third, to the Secured Parties (other than Defaulting Lenders), pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid amounts of all other Obligations arising under this Agreement, under the other Loan Documents or otherwise which shall have become due and payable and not repaid pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above;

(iv) fourth, to the Defaulting Lenders, pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid amounts of Obligations then owing, until all the Obligations then owing have been paid and satisfied in full in cash;

(v) fifth, to the Person entitled thereto as directed by the Company or as otherwise determined by applicable law or applicable court order.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.10(b), (a) no Swap Obligations of any Non-Qualifying Party shall be paid with amounts received from such Non-Qualifying Party under its Guaranty (including sums received as a result of the exercise of remedies with respect to such Guaranty) or from the proceeds of such Non-Qualifying Party’s Collateral if such Swap Obligations would constitute Excluded Hedge Liabilities, provided, however, that to the extent possible appropriate adjustments shall be made with respect to payments and/or the proceeds of Collateral from other Loan Parties that are Eligible Contract Participants with respect to such Swap Obligations to preserve the allocation to Obligations otherwise set forth above in this Section 2.10(b); and (b) to the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause (ii) above are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit, such amounts shall be held by the Administrative Agent as cash collateral for the Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.32.2 and applied (I) first, to reimburse Issuer from time to time for any drawings under such Letters of Credit and (II) then, following the expiration of all Letters of Credit, to all other Obligations of the types described in clauses (ii) and (iii) of above in the manner provided in this Section 2.10(b).

(c) Noncash Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if the Collateral Agent shall ever acquire any Collateral through foreclosure or by a conveyance in lieu of foreclosure or by retaining any of the Collateral in satisfaction of all or part of the Obligations or if any proceeds of Collateral received by the Collateral Agent to be distributed and shared pursuant to this Section 2.10 are in a form other than immediately available funds, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to remit any share thereof under the terms hereof and the Secured Parties shall only be entitled to their undivided interests in the Collateral or noncash proceeds as

58

determined by clause (b) of this Section 2.10. The Secured Parties shall receive the applicable portions (in accordance with the foregoing clause (b) of this Section 2.10) of any immediately available funds consisting of proceeds from such Collateral or proceeds of such noncash proceeds so acquired only if and when received by the Collateral Agent in connection with the subsequent disposition thereof. While any Collateral or other property to be shared pursuant to this Section is held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this clause (c), the Collateral Agent shall hold such Collateral or other property for the benefit of the Secured Parties and all matters relating to the management, operation, further disposition or any other aspect of such Collateral or other property shall be resolved by the agreement of the Required Lenders.

(d) Return of Proceeds. If at any time payment, in whole or in part, of any amount distributed by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent hereunder is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent as a preference, fraudulent conveyance, or otherwise under any bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar law, then each Person receiving any portion of such amount agrees, upon demand, to return the portion of such amount it has received to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (as applicable).

(e) Insufficient Funds. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all Obligations then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied, consistent with Section 2.10(b), (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

2.11. Statement of Account. The Administrative Agent shall maintain, in accordance with its customary procedures, a loan account (“Company’s Account”) in the name of the Company in which shall be recorded the date and amount of each Advance made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders and the date and amount of each payment in respect thereof; provided, however, the failure by the Administrative Agent to record the date and amount of any Advance shall not adversely affect the Administrative Agent or any Lender. Each month, the Administrative Agent shall send to the Company a statement showing the accounting for the Advances made, payments made or credited in respect thereof, and other transactions between the Administrative Agent, Lenders and the Company during such month. The monthly statements shall be deemed correct and binding upon the Company in the absence of manifest error and shall constitute an account stated between Lenders and the Company unless the Administrative Agent receives a written statement of the Company’s specific exceptions thereto within forty-five (45) days after such statement is received by the Company. The records of the Administrative Agent with respect to the Company’s Account shall be conclusive evidence absent manifest error of the amounts of Advances and other charges thereto and of payments applicable thereto.

2.12. Payment of Obligations. At the written election of the Company (which may be via email), the Administrative Agent may charge to Company’s Account as a Revolving Advance or, at the discretion of Swing Loan Lender, as a Swing Loan (i) all payments with respect to any of the Obligations required hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including without limitation principal payments, payments of interest, payments of Letter of Credit Fees and all other fees provided for hereunder and payments under Section 10.6 hereof) as and when each such payment shall become due and payable (whether as regularly scheduled, upon or after acceleration, upon maturity or otherwise) and (ii) any sums expended by the Administrative Agent or any Lender due to any Loan Party’s failure to perform or comply in all material respects (after being requested to do so, to the extent such request is expressly required under this Agreement) with its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and all amounts so charged shall be added to the Obligations and shall be secured by the Collateral. To the extent Revolving

59

Advances are not actually funded by the other Lenders in respect of any such amounts so charged, all such amounts so charged shall be deemed to be Revolving Advances made by and owing to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to all rights (including accrual of interest) and remedies of a Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to such Revolving Advances.

2.13. Repayment of Excess Advances(a) . If at any time the aggregate balance of outstanding Revolving Advances, Swing Loans and/or Advances taken as a whole exceeds the maximum amount of such type of Advances and/or Advances taken as a whole (as applicable) permitted hereunder, such excess Advances shall be immediately due and payable without the necessity of any demand, at the Payment Office, whether or not a Default or an Event of Default exists at such time.

2.14. [Reserved].

2.15. [Reserved].

2.16. [Reserved].

2.17. Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in the event any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, all rights and obligations hereunder of such Defaulting Lender and of the other parties hereto shall be modified to the extent of the express provisions of this Section 2.17 so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

(b) (i) Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Section 2.17, Revolving Advances shall be made pro rata from Revolving Lenders which are not Defaulting Lenders based on their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages, and no Revolving Commitment Percentage of any Lender or any pro rata share of any Revolving Advances required to be advanced by any Lender shall be increased as a result of any Lender being a Defaulting Lender. Amounts received in respect of principal of any type of Revolving Advances shall be applied to reduce such type of Revolving Advances of each Revolving Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender) in accordance with their Revolving Commitment Percentages; provided, that, the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments received by the Administrative Agent for Defaulting Lender’s benefit, nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder (including any principal, interest or fees). Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender shall instead be paid to or retained by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may hold and, in its discretion, re-lend to the Company the amount of such payments received or retained by it for the account of such Defaulting Lender.

(ii) Fees pursuant to Section 2.5.1 hereof shall cease to accrue in favor of such Defaulting Lender.

(iii) If any Swing Loans are outstanding or any Letters of Credit (or drawings under any Letter of Credit for which Issuer has not been reimbursed) are outstanding or exist at the time any such Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then:

(A) such Defaulting Lender’s Participation Commitment in the outstanding Swing Loans and of the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall be reallocated among Revolving Lenders which are Non-Defaulting Lenders in proportion to the respective Revolving Commitment Percentages of such Non-Defaulting Lenders to the

60

extent (but only to the extent) that (x) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate sum of outstanding Revolving Advances made by any such Revolving Lender that is a Non-Defaulting Lender plus such Revolving ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s reallocated Participation Commitment in the outstanding Swing Loans plus such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s reallocated Participation Commitment in the aggregate Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit to exceed the Revolving Commitment Amount of any such Non-Defaulting Lender, and (y) no Default or Event of Default exists at such time;

(B) if the reallocation described in clause (A) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Company shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay any outstanding Swing Loans that cannot be reallocated, and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of Issuer, the Company’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Participation Commitment in the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all Letters of Credit (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (A) above) in accordance with Section 2.5.1 hereof for so long as such Obligations are outstanding;

(C) if the Company cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Participation Commitment in the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all Letters of Credit pursuant to clause (B) above, the Company shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.5.1 hereof with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of Maximum Undrawn Amount of all Letters of Credit during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Participation Commitment in the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all Letters of Credit are cash collateralized;

(D) if Defaulting Lender’s Participation Commitment in the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all Letters of Credit is reallocated pursuant to clause (A) above, then the fees payable to Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 2.5.1 hereof shall be adjusted and reallocated to Revolving Lenders which are Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with such reallocation; and

(E) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Participation Commitment in the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all Letters of Credit is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clauses (A) or (B) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of Issuer or any other Lender hereunder, all Letter of Credit Fees payable under Section 2.5.1 hereof with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all Letters of Credit shall be payable to the Issuer (and not to such Defaulting Lender) until (and then only to the extent that) such Participation Commitment in the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all Letters of Credit is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

(F) so long as any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, Swing Loan Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Loans and Issuer shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless Swing Loan Lender or such Issuer, as applicable, is satisfied that the related exposure and Defaulting Lender’s Participation Commitment in the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all Letters of Credit and all Swing Loans (after giving effect to any such issuance, amendment, increase or funding) will be fully allocated to Revolving Lenders which are Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral for such Letters of Credit will be provided by the Company in accordance with clause (A) and (B) above, and participating interests in any newly made Swing Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among Non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.17(b)(iii)(A) above (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

61

(c) A Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to give instructions to the Administrative Agent or to approve, disapprove, consent to or vote on any matters relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and all amendments, waivers and other modifications of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be made without regard to a Defaulting Lender and, for purposes of the definition of “Required Lenders”, a Defaulting Lender shall not be deemed to be a Lender, to have any outstanding Advances or a Revolving Commitment Percentage; provided, that this clause (c) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification described in clauses (i) or (ii) of Section 8.2.1(a) hereof.

(d) Other than as expressly set forth in this Section 2.17, the rights and obligations of a Defaulting Lender (including the obligation to indemnify the Agents) and the other parties hereto shall remain unchanged. Nothing in this Section 2.17 shall be deemed to release any Defaulting Lender from its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall alter such obligations, shall operate as a waiver of any default by such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or shall prejudice any rights which the Company, any Agent or any Lender may have against any Defaulting Lender as a result of any default by such Defaulting Lender hereunder.

(e) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Company, Swing Loan Lender and Issuer agree in writing that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, and, if such cured Defaulting Lender is a Revolving Lender, then Participation Commitments of Revolving Lenders (including such cured Defaulting Lender) of the Swing Loans and Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall be reallocated to reflect the inclusion of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Revolving Commitment, and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Advances of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Revolving Advances in accordance with its Revolving Commitment Percentage.

(f) If Swing Loan Lender or Issuer has a good faith belief that any Revolving Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, Swing Loan Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Loans and Issuer shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless Swing Loan Lender or Issuer, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Company or such Lender, satisfactory to Swing Loan Lender or Issuer, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.

2.18. Guaranties.

(a) [Reserved].

(b) On and after the Closing Date, within 45 days (or such longer period of time contemplated by the Collateral and Guarantee Requirements or as the Administrative Agent shall agree) after delivery (or date of required delivery) of each set of applicable financial statements pursuant to Sections 6.1(i) and (ii) and with respect to any Person that becomes a Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) after the Closing Date, within 45 days of such Person becoming a Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary), the Company shall take all actions (if any) required to be taken to satisfy the Collateral and Guarantee Requirements with respect to each Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) such that all Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiaries (other than Excluded Subsidiaries) are Guarantors as of such date.

62

(c) In connection with the delivery of any such Guaranties and Security Documents and the satisfaction of the Collateral and Guarantee Requirements, at the written request of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, the Company shall provide such other documentation to the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, including, without limitation, one or more opinions of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, corporate documents and resolutions, which in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent is necessary or advisable in connection therewith.

2.19. [Reserved].

2.20. Alternate Rate of Interest.

(a) Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of this Section 2.20, if:

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Loan, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (including because the Term SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis) for such Interest Period; or

(ii) Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant maturity are not available, with respect to an outstanding Term Benchmark Loan, a proposed Term Benchmark Loan, or a proposed conversion of a Floating Rate Loan into a Term Benchmark Loan; or

(iii) the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines that the making, maintenance or funding of any Term Benchmark Loan has been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by Administrative Agent or such Lender in good faith with any applicable Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or with any request or directive of any such Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), or

(iv) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Loan, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate and such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Advances (or its Advances) included in such Advance for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Company and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Company delivers a new conversion/continuation notice in accordance with the terms of Section 2.7, for Advances denominated in Dollars, any conversion/continuation notice that requests the conversion of any Advance to, or continuation of any Advance as, a Term Benchmark Loan in Dollars shall instead be deemed to be a conversion/continuation notice for a Floating Rate Loan; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Advance, then all other Types of Advance shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan is outstanding on the date of the Company’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.20(a) with respect to such Term Benchmark Loan, then until (x) the Administrative Agent

63

notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Company delivers a new conversion/continuation notice in accordance with the terms of Section 2.7, any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Advance, be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Floating Rate Loan on such day.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” with respect to Dollars for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

(c) In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the other Loan Documents, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(d) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Company of (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (e) below and (y) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.20, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.20.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has provided a public statement

64

or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(f) Upon the Company’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Company may revoke any request for a conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, either the Company will be deemed to have converted any request for a continuation of a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars into a request for a conversion to a Floating Rate Loan. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan is outstanding on the date of the Company’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to such Term Benchmark Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement is implemented pursuant to this Section 2.20, any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Advance, be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Floating Rate Loan on such day.

2.21. [Reserved].

2.22. [Reserved].

2.23. Letters of Credit.

2.23.1 Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the applicable Issuer shall issue or cause the issuance of standby and/or trade letters of credit denominated in Dollars (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Company except to the extent that the issuance thereof would then cause the sum of (i) the outstanding Revolving Advances plus (ii) the outstanding Swing Loans, plus (iii) the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, plus (iv) the Maximum Undrawn Amount of the Letter of Credit to be issued to exceed the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount. The Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall not exceed in the aggregate at any time the Letter of Credit Sublimit. All disbursements or payments related to Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Floating Rate Loans consisting of Revolving Advances and shall bear interest at the Floating Rate. Letters of Credit that have not been drawn upon shall not bear interest (but fees shall accrue in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit as provided in Section 2.32.2).

2.23.2 Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, no Issuer shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if (a) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuer from issuing any Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to such Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuer shall prohibit, or request that such Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuer with respect to the Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date, and which such Issuer in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ material to it, or (b) the issuance of the Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuer applicable to letters of credit generally.

65

2.24. Issuance of Letters of Credit.

2.24.1 The Company may request any Issuer to issue or cause the issuance of a Letter of Credit by delivering to such Issuer, with a copy to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office, prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time), at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as agreed to by such Issuer and the Administrative Agent) prior to the proposed date of issuance, such Issuer’s form of Letter of Credit Application (the “Letter of Credit Application”) completed to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent and such Issuer; and, such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as the Administrative Agent or such Issuer may reasonably request. No Issuer shall issue any requested Letter of Credit if such Issuer has received notice from the Administrative Agent or any Lender that one or more of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.2 hereof have not been satisfied or the Revolving Commitments have been terminated for any reason.

2.24.2 Each Letter of Credit shall, among other things, (a) provide for the payment of sight drafts, other written demands for payment or acceptances of usance drafts when presented for honor thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof and when accompanied by the documents described therein, and (b) have an expiry date not later than twelve (12) months after such Letter of Credit’s date of issuance and in no event later than the last day of the Term, unless the Administrative Agent, Issuer and the Company agree for such Letter of Credit to be cash collateralized immediately upon the expiration of the Term, pursuant to Section 2.32.2 hereof. Each standby Letter of Credit shall be subject either to the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time a Letter of Credit is issued (the “UCP”) or the International Standby Practices (International Chamber of Commerce Publication Number 590), or any subsequent revision thereof at the time a standby Letter of Credit is issued, as determined by the applicable Issuer, and each trade Letter of Credit shall be subject to the UCP. In addition, no trade Letter of Credit may permit the presentation of an ocean bill of lading that includes a condition that the original bill of lading is not required to claim the goods shipped thereunder.

2.24.3 The Administrative Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to notify Lenders of the request by the Company for a Letter of Credit hereunder.

2.25. Requirements For Issuance of Letters of Credit.

2.25.1 The Company shall authorize and direct the applicable Issuer to name the Company or a Subsidiary as the “Applicant” or “Account Party” of each Letter of Credit. If the Administrative Agent is not the Issuer of any Letter of Credit, the Company shall authorize and direct the applicable Issuer to deliver to Administrative Agent all agreements, documents or instruments and property received by such Issuer pursuant to such Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon Administrative Agent’s instructions and agreements with respect to all matters arising in connection with such Letter of Credit, and the application therefor.

2.25.2 In connection with all trade Letters of Credit issued or caused to be issued by any Issuer under this Agreement, the Company hereby appoints each Issuer, or its designee, as its attorney, with full power and authority if an Event of Default shall exist: (i) to sign and/or endorse the Company’s name upon any warehouse or other receipts, and acceptances; (ii) to sign the Company’s name on bills of lading; (iii) to clear inventory through the United States of America Customs Department

66

(“Customs”) in the name of the Company or such Issuer or such Issuer’s designee, and to sign and deliver to Customs officials powers of attorney in the name of the Company for such purpose; and (iv) to complete in such the Company’s name or in the name of such Issuer or its designee, any order, sale or transaction, obtain the necessary documents in connection therewith, and collect the proceeds thereof. Neither the Administrative Agent, nor any Issuer nor their attorneys will be liable for any acts or omissions nor for any error of judgment or mistakes of fact or law, except for the Administrative Agent’s, any Issuer’s or their respective attorneys’ bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable as long as any Letters of Credit remain outstanding.

2.26. Disbursements, Reimbursement.

2.26.1 Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the applicable Issuer a participation in each Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Maximum Undrawn Amount of such Letter of Credit (as in effect from time to time) and the amount of such drawing, respectively.

2.26.2 In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the applicable Issuer will promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Company. Regardless of whether the Company shall have received such notice, the Company shall reimburse such Issuer in an amount equal to the amount so paid by such Issuer (such obligation to reimburse such Issuer shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”) prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on each date that an amount is paid by such Issuer under such Letter of Credit (each such date, a “Drawing Date”). In the event the Company fails to reimburse such Issuer for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Drawing Date, such Issuer will promptly notify the Administrative Agent and each Revolving Lender thereof, and the Company shall be automatically deemed to have requested that a Revolving Advance maintained as a Floating Rate Loan be made by Lenders to be disbursed on the Drawing Date under such Letter of Credit, and Revolving Lenders shall be unconditionally obligated to fund such Revolving Advance (all whether or not the conditions specified in Section 4.2 hereof are then satisfied or the Revolving Commitments have been terminated for any reason) as provided for in Section 2.26.3 below. Any notice given by any Issuer pursuant to this Section 2.26.2 may be oral if promptly confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such a confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

2.26.3 Each Revolving Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.26.2 above make available to the applicable Issuer through the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office an amount in immediately available funds equal to its Revolving Commitment Percentage (subject to any contrary provisions of Section 2.17 hereof) of the amount of the drawing, whereupon the participating Lenders shall (subject to Section 2.26.4 hereof) each be deemed to have made a Revolving Advance maintained as a Floating Rate Loan to the Company in that amount. If any Revolving Lender so notified fails to make available to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Issuer, the amount of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of such amount by 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Drawing Date, then interest shall accrue on such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s obligation to make such payment, from the Drawing Date to the date on which such Lender makes such payment (a) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate during the first three (3) days following the Drawing Date and (b) at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Revolving Advances maintained as a Floating Rate Loan on and after the fourth day following the Drawing Date. The Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuer will promptly give notice of the occurrence of the Drawing Date, but failure of Administrative Agent or such Issuer to give any such notice on the Drawing Date or in sufficient time to enable any Revolving Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligations under this Section 2.26.3, provided that such Lender shall not be obligated to pay interest as provided in this Section 2.26.3 until and commencing from the date of receipt of notice from Administrative Agent or such Issuer of a drawing.

67

2.26.4 With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted into a Revolving Advance maintained as a Floating Rate Loan to the Company in whole or in part as contemplated by Section 2.26.2, because of the Company’s failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 hereof (other than any notice requirements) or for any other reason, the Company shall be deemed to have incurred from the Administrative Agent a borrowing (each a “Letter of Credit Borrowing”) in the amount of such drawing. Such Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate per annum applicable to a Revolving Advance maintained as a Floating Rate Loan. Each applicable Lender’s payment to Agent pursuant to Section 2.26.3 shall be deemed to be a payment in respect of its participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing and shall constitute a “Participation Advance” from such Lender in satisfaction of its Participation Commitment in respect of the applicable Letter of Credit under this Section 2.26.

2.26.5 Each Lender’s Participation Commitment in respect of the Letters of Credit shall continue until the last to occur of any of the following events: (a) Issuers cease to be obligated to issue or cause to be issued Letters of Credit hereunder; (b) no Letter of Credit issued or created hereunder remains outstanding and uncanceled; and (c) all Persons (other than the Company) have been fully reimbursed for all payments made under or relating to Letters of Credit.

2.27. Repayment of Participation Advances.

2.27.1 Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Administrative Agent for the account of Issuer of immediately available funds from the Company (a) in reimbursement of any payment made by Issuer or the Administrative Agent under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any ▇▇▇▇▇▇ has made a Participation Advance to the Administrative Agent, or (b) in payment of interest on such a payment made by Issuer or the Administrative Agent under such a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent will pay to each Revolving Lender, in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent, the amount of such Revolving ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of such funds, except the Administrative Agent shall retain the amount of the Revolving Commitment Percentage of such funds of any Revolving Lender that did not make a Participation Advance in respect of such payment by the Administrative Agent (and, to the extent that any of the other Revolving Lenders have funded any portion such Defaulting Lender’s Participation Advance in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.17, the Administrative Agent will pay over to such Non-Defaulting Lenders a pro rata portion of the funds so withheld from such Defaulting Lender).

2.27.2 If Issuer or the Administrative Agent is required at any time to return to the Company, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any insolvency proceeding, any portion of the payments made by the Company to Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.27.1 in reimbursement of a payment made under the Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each applicable Lender shall, on demand of the Administrative Agent, forthwith return to Issuer or the Administrative Agent the amount of its Revolving Commitment Percentage of any amounts so returned by Issuer or the Administrative Agent plus interest at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

2.28. Documentation. The Company agrees to be bound by the terms of the Letter of Credit Application and by Issuer’s interpretations of any Letter of Credit issued on behalf of the Company and by Issuer’s written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though Issuer’s interpretations may be different from the Company’s own. In the event of a conflict between the Letter of

68

Credit Application and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern. It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment or order), Issuer shall not be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following the Company’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto.

2.29. Determination to Honor Drawing Request. In determining whether to honor any request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, Issuer shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit and that any other drawing condition appearing on the face of such Letter of Credit has been satisfied in the manner so set forth.

2.30. Nature of Participation and Reimbursement Obligations. The obligation of each Revolving Lender in accordance with this Agreement to make the Revolving Advances or Participation Advances as a result of a drawing under a Letter of Credit, and the obligations of the Company to reimburse Issuer upon a draw under a Letter of Credit, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.30 under all circumstances, including the following circumstances:

(a) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender or the Company, as the case may be, may have against Issuer, the Administrative Agent, the Company or such Lender, as the case may be, or any other Person for any reason whatsoever;

(b) the failure of the Company or any other Person to comply, in connection with a Letter of Credit Borrowing, with the conditions set forth in this Agreement for the making of a Revolving Advance, it being acknowledged that such conditions are not required for the making of a Letter of Credit Borrowing and the obligation of Lenders to make Participation Advances under Section 2.26;

(c) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit;

(d) any claim of breach of warranty that might be made by the Company, the Administrative Agent, Issuer or any Lender against the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, or the existence of any claim, set-off, recoupment, counterclaim, cross-claim, defense or other right which the Company, the Administrative Agent, Issuer or any Lender may have at any time against a beneficiary, any successor beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit or assignee of the proceeds thereof (or any Persons for whom any such transferee or assignee may be acting), Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured);

(e) the lack of power or authority of any signer of (or any defect in or forgery of any signature or endorsement on) or the form of or lack of validity, sufficiency, accuracy, enforceability or genuineness of any draft, demand, instrument, certificate or other document presented under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, or any fraud or alleged fraud in connection with any Letter of Credit, or the transport of any property or provision of services relating to a Letter of Credit, in each case even if Issuer or any of Issuer’s Affiliates has been notified thereof;

69

(f) payment by Issuer under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which is forged or does not fully comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit (provided that the foregoing shall not excuse Issuer from any obligation under the terms of any applicable Letter of Credit to require the presentation of documents that on their face appear to satisfy any applicable requirements for drawing under such Letter of Credit prior to honoring or paying any such draw);

(g) the solvency of, or any acts or omissions by, any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or any other Person having a role in any transaction or obligation relating to a Letter of Credit, or the existence, nature, quality, quantity, condition, value or other characteristic of any property or services relating to a Letter of Credit;

(h) any failure by Issuer or any of Issuer’s Affiliates to issue any Letter of Credit in the form requested by the Company, unless the Administrative Agent and Issuer have each received written notice from the Company of such failure within three (3) Business Days after Issuer shall have provided the Administrative Agent and the Company a copy of such Letter of Credit and such error is material and no drawing has been made thereon prior to receipt of such notice;

(i) the occurrence of any Material Adverse Effect;

(j) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any party thereto;

(k) the occurrence or continuance of an insolvency proceeding with respect to any Loan Party;

(l) the fact that a Default or an Event of Default exists;

(m) the fact that the Term shall have expired or this Agreement or the Revolving Commitments have been terminated; and

(n) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

2.31. Liability for Acts and Omissions.

2.31.1 As between the Company, on the one hand, and Issuer, Swing Loan Lender, the Administrative Agent and Lenders, on the other hand, the Company assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Issuer shall not be responsible for: (a) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if Issuer or any of its Affiliates shall have been notified thereof); (b) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (c) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of the Company against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among the Company and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (d) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, facsimile or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (e) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (f) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds

70

thereof; (g) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (h) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Issuer, including any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto Governmental Authority, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of Issuer’s rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall relieve Issuer from liability for Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment or order) in connection with actions or omissions described in such clauses (a) through (h) of such sentence. In no event shall Issuer or its Affiliates be liable to any Loan Party for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit.

2.31.2 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Issuer and each of its Affiliates: (a) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by Issuer or such Affiliate to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit; (b) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit; (c) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by Issuer or its Affiliates; (d) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (e) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located; and (f) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on Issuer or its Affiliates in any way related to any order issued at the applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a steamship agent or carrier or any document or instrument of like import (each an “Order”) and honor any drawing in connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject of such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit.

2.31.3 In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by Issuer under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith and without gross negligence (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment or order), shall not put Issuer under any resulting liability to the Company, the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

2.32. Letter of Credit Fees; Cash Collateral.

2.32.1 The Company shall pay (x) to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of Revolving Lenders, fees for each outstanding Letter of Credit for the period from and excluding the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to and including the date of expiration or termination, equal to the daily face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit multiplied by the Applicable Margin for Term Benchmark Loans, such fees to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed and to be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each calendar quarter and on the last day of the Term, and (y) to the applicable Issuer, a fronting fee in the amount of one eighth of one percent (0.125%) per annum times the daily face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit for the period from and excluding the date of issuance of same to and including the date of expiration or termination, to be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each calendar quarter and on the last

71

day of the Term (all of the foregoing fees, the “Letter of Credit Fees”). In addition, the Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Issuer, any and all reasonable and customary administrative, issuance, amendment, payment and negotiation charges with respect to Letters of Credit and all fees and expenses as agreed upon by Issuer and the Company in connection with any Letter of Credit, including in connection with the opening, amendment or renewal of any such Letter of Credit and any acceptances created thereunder, all such charges, fees and expenses, if any, to be payable on demand. All such charges shall be deemed earned in full on the date when the same are due and payable hereunder and shall not be subject to rebate or pro-ration upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason. Any such charge in effect at the time of a particular transaction shall be the charge for that transaction, notwithstanding any subsequent change in Issuer’s prevailing charges for that type of transaction. During the existence of a Specified Event of Default, at the option of Administrative Agent or at the direction of the Required Lenders (or, in the case of any Event of Default under Sections 7.6 or 7.7, immediately and automatically upon the existence of any such Event of Default without the requirement of any affirmative action by any party), the Letter of Credit Fees described in clause (x) of this Section 2.32.1 shall be increased by an additional two percent (2.0%) per annum.

2.32.2 At any time during the existence of an Event of Default, at the option of the Administrative Agent or at the direction of the Required Lenders (or, in the case of any Event of Default under Sections 7.6 or 7.7 hereof, immediately and automatically upon the existence of such Event of Default, without the requirement of any affirmative action by any party), or on the last day of the Term or any other termination of this Agreement (and also, if applicable, in connection with any mandatory prepayment under Section 2.6.5 hereof), the Company will cause cash to be deposited and maintained in an account with the Administrative Agent, as cash collateral, in an amount equal to one hundred and five percent (105%) of the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, and the Company hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in its discretion, on the Company’s behalf and in the Company’s name, to open such an account and to make and maintain deposits therein, or in an account opened by the Company, in the amounts required to be made by the Company, out of the proceeds of receivables or other Collateral or out of any other funds of the Company coming into any ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s possession at any time. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, invest such cash collateral (less applicable reserves) in such short-term money-market items as to which the Administrative Agent and the Company mutually agree (or, in the absence of such agreement, as the Administrative Agent may reasonably select) and the net return on such investments shall be credited to such account and constitute additional cash collateral, or the Administrative Agent may (notwithstanding the foregoing) establish the account provided for under this Section 2.32.2 as a non-interest bearing account and in such case the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation (and the Company hereby waive any claim) under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code or under any other applicable Law to pay interest on such cash collateral being held by the Administrative Agent. The Company shall not withdraw amounts credited to any such account except upon the occurrence of all of the following: (x) Payment in Full of all of the Obligations; (y) expiration of all Letters of Credit; and (z) termination of the Commitments and of this Agreement. The Company hereby assigns, pledges and grants to the Administrative Agent, for its benefit and the ratable benefit of Issuer, Lenders and each other Secured Party, a continuing security interest in and to and Lien on any such cash collateral and any right, title and interest of the Company in any deposit account, securities account or investment account into which such cash collateral may be deposited from time to time to secure the Obligations, specifically including all Obligations with respect to any Letters of Credit. The Company agrees that upon the coming due of any Reimbursement Obligations (or any other Obligations, including Obligations for Letter of Credit Fees) with respect to the Letters of Credit, the Administrative Agent may use such cash collateral to pay and satisfy such Obligations.

(a) In the event that any Agent, Swing Loan Lender or any Lender shall have determined that any applicable Law or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any Change in Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Agent, Swing Loan Lender, Issuer or any Lender (for purposes of this Section 3.1, the term “Lender” shall include each Agent, Swing Loan Lender, Issuer or any Lender and any corporation or bank controlling any Agent, Swing Loan Lender or any Lender and the office or branch where Agent, Swing Loan Lender or any Lender (as so defined) makes or maintains any Term Benchmark Loans) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on any Agent, Swing Loan Lender or any Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder (including the making of any Swing Loans) to a level below that which such Agent, Swing Loan Lender or such Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration each Agent’s, Swing Loan Lender’s and each Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by any Agent, Swing Loan Lender or any Lender to be material, then, from time to time, the Company shall pay upon demand to such Agent, Swing Loan Lender or such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Agent, Swing Loan Lender or such Lender for such reduction. In determining such amount or amounts, such Agent, Swing Loan Lender or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging or attribution methods. The protection of this Section 3.1 shall be available to each Agent, Swing Loan Lender and each Lender regardless of any possible contention of invalidity or inapplicability with respect to the applicable Law, rule, regulation, guideline or condition.

(b) A certificate of such Agent, Swing Loan Lender or such Lender setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate such Agent, Swing Loan Lender or such Lender with respect to Section 3.1(a) hereof when delivered to the Company shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

3.2. Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender;

(ii) impose on any Lender any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or the Advances made by such Lender; or

(iii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes on its loans, loan principal, commitments, or other obligations hereunder, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes; and (B) Excluded Taxes);

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making or maintaining any Advance or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Advance or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such other Recipient hereunder, whether of principal, interest or otherwise, then the Company will pay to such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

73

(b) If any Change in Law regarding capital requirements or liquidity has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Advances made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Company will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 3.2 shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Subject to paragraph (d) of this Section 3.2, the Company shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate, absent manifest error, within 30 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Company shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 3.2 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

3.3. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Term Benchmark Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked and is revoked) or (d) the assignment of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 3.5, then, in any such event, the Company shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof.

3.4. Withholding of Taxes; Gross-Up. (a) Each payment by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, unless such deduction or withholding is required by applicable law. If any Withholding Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it is so required to deduct or withhold Taxes, then such Withholding Agent may so deduct or withhold and shall timely pay the full amount of Taxes deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the amount payable by such Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that, net of such deduction or withholding (including such deduction or withholding applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 3.4), the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

74

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law or timely reimburse the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent for the payment of any Other Taxes they were required to pay by law or by a relevant Governmental Authority in respect of this Agreement.

(c) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Indemnification by the Loan Parties. Each applicable Loan Party shall indemnify each Recipient for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes that are paid or payable by such Recipient in connection with any Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on amounts paid or payable under this Section 3.4(d)) 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. The indemnity under this Section 3.4(d) shall be paid within 10 days after demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the applicable Loan Party 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.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 3.4(e) shall be paid within 10 days after demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (as applicable) to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (as applicable) under this paragraph (e).

(f) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Company or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.4(f)(ii)(A) through (E) and Section 3.4(f)(iii) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

75

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Company is a U.S. Person, each Lender shall, if it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies reasonably requested by the Company and the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ becomes a party hereto, ▇▇▇▇ completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) in the case of a Lender that is a U.S. Person, IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;

(B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (1) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (2) with respect to any other applicable payments under this Agreement, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(C) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender for whom payments under this Agreement constitute income that is effectively connected with such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States, IRS Form W-8ECI;

(D) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code both (1) IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, and (2) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto (a “U.S. Tax Certificate”) to the effect that such Lender is not (a) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (b) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Company within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code and (c) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code;

(E) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not the beneficial owner of payments made under any Loan Document (including a partnership or a participating Lender) (1) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (2) the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) and (F) of this paragraph (f)(ii) and in paragraph (f)(iii) that would be required of each such beneficial owner or partner of such partnership if such 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 Code, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Certificate on behalf of such partners; or

(F) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender, any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation necessary to enable the Company or the Administrative Agent to determine the amount of Tax (if any) required by law to be withheld or deducted.

76

(iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company and the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 3.4(f)(iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. 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 3.4 (including additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section 3.4), 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 3.4 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 preceding sentence (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.4(g), in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 3.4(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 Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld, or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 3.4(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) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.4 shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations under any Loan Document.

3.5. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Recipient requests compensation under Section 3.2, or if a Loan Party is required to pay any additional amount to any Recipient or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Recipient pursuant to Section 3.4, then such Recipient shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and

77

obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Recipient, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.2 or 3.4, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Recipient to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Recipient. The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Recipient in connection with any such designation or assignment including the $3,500 fee contemplated by Section 13.1(b).

(b) If any Lender (i) shall become affected by any of the changes or events described in Section 3.2 or 3.4 and the Company is required to pay additional amounts or make indemnity payments with respect to the Lender thereunder, (ii) is a Defaulting Lender, (iii) [reserved], or (iv) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 8.2 or any other provision of any Loan Document requires the consent of all Lenders or all affected Lenders and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent (any such Lender being hereinafter referred to as a “Departing Lender”), then in such case, the Company may, upon at least five Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent and such Departing Lender (or such shorter notice period specified by the Administrative Agent), designate a replacement lender reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (a “Replacement Lender”) to which such Departing Lender shall, subject to its receipt (unless a later date for the remittance thereof shall be agreed upon by the Loan Party and the Departing Lender) of all amounts then owed to such Departing Lender under Sections 3.2 or 3.4, if any, assign all (but not less than all) of its interests, rights, obligations, Advances and Commitments hereunder; provided, that the Departing Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the Replacement Lender (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts). Upon any assignment by any Lender pursuant to this Section 3.5 becoming effective, the Replacement Lender shall thereupon be deemed to be a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement (unless such Replacement Lender was, itself, a Lender prior thereto) and such Departing Lender shall thereupon cease to be a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder (other than pursuant to Section 3.2 or 3.4 and Section 10.6).

(c) Notwithstanding any Departing Lender’s failure or refusal to assign its rights, obligations, Advances and Commitments under this Section 3.5, the Departing Lender shall cease to be a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and the Replacement Lender shall be substituted therefor upon payment to the Departing Lender by the Replacement Lender of all amounts set forth in paragraph (b) of this Section 3.5 without any further action of the Departing Lender.

The Company represents and warrants to the Lenders, the Agents and the Issuer on the Closing Date and each other date such representations and warranties are made pursuant to the Loan Documents, that:

5.1. Corporate Existence and Standing. The Company, each Loan Party and, other than as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each of their Subsidiaries is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, unlimited liability company or other organization, duly organized or incorporated and validly existing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization or incorporation and has all requisite corporate, partnership, company or similar authority to conduct its business as presently conducted (in each case, in the case of Foreign Subsidiaries, to the extent such legal concepts are applicable thereto).

The execution and delivery by each Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by proper corporate or other applicable company proceedings. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto. Each Loan Document constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity.

81

5.3. No Conflict; Government Consent. Neither the execution and delivery by the Loan Parties of the Loan Documents, nor the consummation of the transactions therein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions thereof will violate any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or award binding on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s Organizational Documents or the provisions of any material indenture, instrument or agreement to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or is subject, or by which it, or its Property, is bound, or conflict with or constitute a default thereunder, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than any Permitted Lien) in, of or on the Property of the Company or a Subsidiary pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, instrument or agreement. Other than those that have been obtained, no order, consent, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, or other action in respect of any Governmental Authority is required to authorize, or is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of, or the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of, any of the Loan Documents.

5.4. Financial Statements. The Company has delivered the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and statements of income, stockholders equity and cash flows (i) as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, reported on by KPMG, independent public accountants, and (ii) as of and for the fiscal month and the portion of the fiscal year ended November 30, 2023.

All financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of Section 6.1 or Article IV on and after the Closing Date were prepared in accordance with GAAP in effect on the date such statements were prepared and fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial condition and operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than in the case of annual financial statements, subject to the absence of footnotes and year-end audit adjustments).

5.5. Material Adverse Change. Since November 30, 2023, there has been no change in the business, Property, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.6. Taxes. Each of the Company and each of the Company’s Subsidiaries has filed all United States federal tax returns and all other tax returns that are required to be filed with any Governmental Authority and has paid all Taxes required to be paid by it, except (i) such Taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with GAAP and as to which no Lien (other than Permitted Liens) exists or (ii) where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect. No tax Liens have been filed and no claims are being asserted with respect to any such Taxes, other than Permitted Liens.

5.7. Litigation and Guarantee Obligations. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.7 hereto, there is no litigation, arbitration or proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of any of the Company’s executive officers, any governmental investigation or inquiry pending or any litigation, arbitration, governmental investigation, proceeding or inquiry threatened in writing against or affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which seeks to prevent, enjoin or delay the making of the Advances.

8.2.7 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, guarantees, collateral documents and related documents executed by Loan Parties in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (as applicable) and may be, together with any other Loan Document, entered into, amended, supplemented or waived, without the consent of any other person, by the applicable Loan Party or Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (as applicable), as required hereunder or

111

each acting at the direction of the Required Lenders, to (A) effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, (B) as required by local law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable Requirements of Law, or (C) to cure ambiguities, omissions, mistakes or defects or to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

8.2.8 [Reserved].

8.2.9 Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, for purposes of any provision herein or in any other Loan Document that requires or permits an Agent to act at the direction of the Required Lenders, the Agent shall be entitled (but not obligated) to approve and/or take such action (and shall be deemed to be acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) if an Agent has provided notice to the Lenders of such contemplated document, instrument, agreement, request or extension and has not received written notice of objection from the Lenders constituting the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days of providing such notice; provided however, that this Section 8.2.9 shall not apply for purposes of any provision contained herein or in any other Loan Document relating to the enforcement of rights and/or remedies as a result of the existence of a Default or Event of Default.

8.2.10 The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized by the Lenders, at any time in the Administrative Agent’s reasonable discretion, regardless of (a) the existence of a Default or an Event of Default, (b) whether any of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 hereof have not been satisfied or the Revolving Commitments have been terminated for any reason, or (c) any other contrary provision of this Agreement, to make Revolving Advances to Company on behalf of Revolving Lenders which the Administrative Agent, in its reasonable business judgment, deems necessary or desirable (i) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, or (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Advances and other Obligations (“Protective Advances”); provided, however, that the consent of the Company shall be required for any Protective Advance unless an Event of Default exists and the Administrative Agent has provided notice to the Company of such Protective Advance. Revolving Lenders shall be obligated to fund such Protective Advances and effect a settlement with the Administrative Agent therefor upon demand of the Administrative Agent in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages. To the extent any Protective Advances are not actually funded by the other Revolving Lenders as provided for in this Section 8.2.10, any such Protective Advances funded by the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be Revolving Advances made by and owing to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to all rights (including accrual of interest) and remedies of a Revolving Lender with respect to such Revolving Advances.

8.3. Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, and the making of an Advance notwithstanding the existence of an Event of Default or the inability of the Company to satisfy the conditions precedent to such Advance shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence. Any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Lenders required pursuant to Section 8.2 (or the Administrative Agent with the written consent of the Lenders required pursuant to Section 8.2), and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All remedies contained in the Loan Documents or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders until the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity or reimbursement obligations for which no claim has been asserted) have been Paid in Full.

10.8. Non-liability of Agents and Lenders. The relationship between the Company and the Lenders shall be solely that of borrower and lender.

114

therewith, except to the extent it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable order that such losses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or material breach of any of the Loan Documents by, the party from which recovery is sought. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and the Company hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue for, any special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages suffered by the Company in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the Loan Documents, the Transactions or the other transactions contemplated thereby.

(a) Each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and be instructed and agree to keep such Information confidential), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or by applicable laws or regulations, (iii) to the extent required by any subpoena or similar legal process, provided, however, to the extent permitted by applicable law and if practical to do so under the circumstances, that the Person relying on this clause (iii) shall provide the Company with prompt notice of any such required disclosure so that the Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy, and in the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, such Person will furnish only that portion of the Information which is legally required, (iv) to any other party to this Agreement, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.9, to any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Company and its obligations, (vii) as permitted by Section 13.2 hereof, (viii) with the consent of the Company or (ix) to the extent such Information (1) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.9 or any agreement contemplated by this Section 10.9 or (2) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company (and not in breach of this Section 10.9 or any agreement contemplated by this Section 10.9). For the purposes of this Section 10.9, “Information” means all information received from the Company or any Subsidiary relating to the Company or any Subsidiary or their business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company or any Subsidiary and other than information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 10.9 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

(b) Notwithstanding the above, nothing in any Loan Document shall prevent disclosure of any confidential information or other matter to the extent that preventing that disclosure would otherwise cause any transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents.

(c) EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 10.9(a) FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE COMPANY AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT

115

HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

(d) NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY HEREIN, EACH OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT AND THE LENDERS ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SOME OR ALL OF THE INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 10.9(a) IS OR MAY BE PRICE SENSITIVE INFORMATION AND THAT THE USE OF SUCH INFORMATION MAY BE REGULATED OR PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LEGISLATION INCLUDING SECURITIES LAWS RELATING TO ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ AND EACH OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT AND THE LENDERS UNDERTAKES NOT TO USE ANY INFORMATION FOR ANY UNLAWFUL PURPOSE.

(e) ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE COMPANY, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE COLLATERAL AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE COMPANY, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE COLLATERAL AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW.

10.10. Non-reliance. Each Lender hereby represents that it is not relying on or looking to any Margin Stock for the repayment of the Advances provided for herein.

10.12. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Advance, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Advance under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Advance in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Advance hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Advance but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 10.12 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Advances shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

10.13. Publicity. Each Loan Party and each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to make appropriate announcements of the financial arrangement entered into among the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and Lenders, including announcements which are commonly known as tombstones,

116

in such advertising, print media and promotional materials (including, without limitation, on any of the Administrative Agent’s websites) and to such selected parties as the Administrative Agent shall in its reasonable discretion deem appropriate, so long as prior to the first use of any material created with respect thereto, the Company has approved the form of such material and the Administrative Agent has not received a notice from the Company to no longer distribute such material.

(b) Written Release. The Collateral Agent is authorized to release of record, and shall release of record, any Liens encumbering any Collateral that is the subject of a Disposition described in clause (a) above upon an Authorized Officer of the Company certifying in writing to the Collateral Agent that the proposed Disposition of Collateral is not to a Loan Party and is permitted under Section 6.14. To the extent the Collateral Agent is required to execute any release documents in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the Collateral Agent shall do so promptly upon request of the Company without the consent or further agreement of any Secured Party.

under clause (i): (A) the Company is subject to a proceeding of the type described in Section 7.6 or 7.7, or (B) the Collateral Agent is applying the proceeds of Collateral in accordance with Section 2.10(b), then the Collateral Agent shall not release its Liens until the termination in full of the Commitments and the Payment in Full of all Obligations.

(d) Authorized Release of Guarantors. If the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Company requesting the release of a Guarantor, certifying that the Administrative Agent is authorized to release such Guarantor because (x) the Capital Stock issued by such Guarantor have been disposed of to a Person other than a Loan Party in a transaction permitted by Section 6.14 (or with the consent of the Required Lenders pursuant to Section 8.2) or (y) such Guarantor is no longer required to provide a Guaranty pursuant to Section 2.18 (including, but not limited to, the release upon or after the Closing Date of any Guarantor that is an Excluded Subsidiary), then the Collateral Agent is irrevocably authorized by the Secured Parties, without any consent or further agreement of any Secured Party to release the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent to secure the Obligations in the assets of such Guarantor and release such Guarantor from all obligations under the Loan Documents; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents solely by reason of such Guarantor ceasing to be a Wholly Owned Subsidiary unless such Guarantor ceases to be a Wholly Owned Subsidiary as a result of a sale, issuance or transfer of Equity Interests to a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Company and such sale or transfer is made for a bona fide business purpose of the Company and its Subsidiaries and not for the primary purpose of evading the requirements of Sections 2.18, 6.9 and 6.12. To the extent the Collateral Agent is required to execute any release documents in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the Collateral Agent shall do so promptly upon request of the Company without the consent or further agreement of any Secured Party.

(e) Intercreditor Arrangements.

(i) Each Agent is authorized to enter into or amend any intercreditor or Subordination Agreement with respect to Indebtedness that is (A) required or permitted to be subordinated hereunder and/or (B) secured by ▇▇▇▇▇ (other than Liens on Collateral contemplated to rank senior or on an equal priority basis with the Liens securing the Obligations) and which Indebtedness contemplates or would necessitate an intercreditor, subordination or collateral trust agreement (any such agreement, an “Additional Agreement”), and the Secured Parties acknowledge that the Additional Agreements are binding upon them. Each Secured Party (a) agrees that it will be bound by, and will not take any action contrary to, the provisions of any Additional Agreement and (b) hereby authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into the Additional Agreements and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Obligations to the provisions thereof.

(ii) [Reserved].

11.10. Perfection by Possession and Control. The Collateral Agent hereby appoints each of the other Lenders to serve as bailee to perfect the Collateral Agent’s Liens in any Collateral (other than deposit, securities or commodity accounts) in the possession of any such other Lender and each Lender possessing any such Collateral agrees to so act as bailee for the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof.

11.11. Lender Affiliates Rights. By accepting the benefits of the Loan Documents, any Person (other than a party hereto) (a “non-Party Secured Party”) that is owed any Obligation is bound by the terms of the Loan Documents. But notwithstanding the foregoing: (a) neither any Agent, any Lender nor any Loan Party

120

shall be obligated to deliver any notice or communication required to be delivered to any Lender under any Loan Documents to any non-Party Secured Party and (b) no non-Party Secured Party that is owed any Obligation shall be included in any voting determinations under the Loan Documents or entitled to consent to, reject, or participate in any manner in any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document. No Agent shall have any liabilities, obligations or responsibilities of any kind whatsoever to any non-Party Secured Party who is owed any Obligation. The Agents shall deal solely and directly with the parties to the Loan Documents in connection with all matters relating to the Loan Documents. The Obligation owed to any non-Party Secured Party that is an Affiliate of a Lender (or a Person that was a Lender at the time of designation of any such obligation as an Obligation) shall be considered the Obligation of its related Lender for all purposes under the Loan Documents and such Lender shall be solely responsible to the other parties hereto for all the obligations of such Affiliate under any Loan Document.

11.12. [Reserved].

11.13. Actions in Concert. Notwithstanding anything contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Company, each Agent and each Lender hereby agree that (A) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral under any Security Documents or to enforce the guarantee set forth in any Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under any Guaranty and the Security Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (as applicable) for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof and (B) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Secured Party in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing), shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold in any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale.

11.14. Additional Exculpatory Provisions.

(a) Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent:

(i) shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it, in each case, in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment. The Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent in writing by the Company or a Lender;

(ii) shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into: (1) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (2) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (3) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the existence of any Default or Event of Default; (4) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document (5) the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien on the Collateral or the existence, value or sufficiency of the Collateral or to ensure that any Liens granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document have been or will continue to be properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected or

121

enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or (6) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein or any other Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any responsibility, for or liability with respect to, monitoring compliance of any other party to the Loan Documents or any other document related hereto or thereto. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duty to monitor the value or rating of any Collateral on an ongoing basis. Other than in respect of legal or arbitration proceedings relating to the perfection, preservation or protection of rights under the Security Documents or enforcement of the Collateral or Security Documents, the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent are not authorized to act on behalf of a Lender (without first obtaining that ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s prior written consent) in any legal or arbitration proceedings relating to this Agreement or any Loan Document;

(iii) shall be accountable for the use or application by any Person of disbursements properly made by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in conformity with the provisions of the Loan Documents or of moneys received from the Loan Parties; or

(iv) shall be required to take any action, perform any duties or responsibilities or exercise any rights, powers, authorities or discretions that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may lead it to expend its own funds or expose it to liability (financial or otherwise) or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law (for the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may refrain from acting in accordance with any instructions of any Lender or group of Lenders until it has received any indemnification and/or security that it may in its discretion require (which may be greater in extent than that contained in the Loan Documents and which may include payment in advance) for any cost, loss or liability which it may incur in complying with those instructions).

(b) The Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to request written instructions, or clarification of any instruction, from the Required Lenders (or, if the relevant Loan Document stipulates the matter is a decision for any other Lender or group of Lenders, from that Lender or group of Lenders) as to whether, and in what manner, it should exercise or refrain from exercising any right, power, authority or discretion and the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent may refrain from acting unless and until it receives those written instructions or that clarification. In the absence of written instructions, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent, as applicable, may act (or refrain from acting) as it considers to be in the best interests of the Lenders. If in the administration of the Loan Documents the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, such Agent (unless other evidence shall be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, conclusively rely upon instructions from the Required Lenders.

(c) In no event shall the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services.

122

(d) None of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for any unsuitability, inadequacy, expiration or unfitness of any security interest created hereunder or pursuant to any other security documents pertaining to this matter nor shall it be obligated to make any investigation into, and shall be entitled to assume, the adequacy and fitness of any security interest created hereunder or pursuant to any other security document pertaining to this matter.

(e) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto and the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords similar collateral and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee.

11.15. [Reserved].

11.16. Erroneous Payments.

(a) If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender, Issuer or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Issuer or Secured Party (any such Lender, Issuer, Secured Party or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, Issuer, Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender, Issuer or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice from the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender, Issuer or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Issuer or Secured Party hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in an amount different than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or

123

repayment (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender, Issuer or Secured Party, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:

(i) (A) In the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii) such Lender, Issuer or Secured Party shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 11.16(b).

(c) Each Lender, Issuer or Secured Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, Issuer or Secured Party under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender, Issuer or Secured Party from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

(d) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender or Issuer that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”)), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender or Issuer at any time, (i) such Lender or Issuer shall be deemed to have assigned its loans (but not its commitments) of the relevant class with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the loans (but not commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Company) deemed to execute and deliver an assignment and assumption with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender or Issuer shall deliver any Notes evidencing such loans to the Company or the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender or Issuer, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender or assigning Issuer shall cease to be a Lender or Issuer, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender or assigning Issuer and (iv) the Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender or Issuer shall be reduced

124

by the net proceeds of the sale of such loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender or Issuer (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender or Issuer and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender, Issuer or Secured Party under the Loan Documents with respect to such Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency.

(e) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Company or any Guarantor, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Company or any Guarantor for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(f) Except as provided in clause (c) above, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation, waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(g) Each party’s obligations under this Section 11.16 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, the termination of all of the commitments and/or repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

11.17. Right to Indemnity. Each Lender, in proportion to its respective portion of the outstanding Advances and its respective Participation Commitments in the outstanding Letters of Credit and outstanding Swing Loans (or, if no Advances are outstanding, pro rata according to the percentage that its Revolving Commitment Amount constitutes of the total aggregate Revolving Commitment Amounts) (its “Pro Rata Share”), severally agrees to indemnify each Agent and each of its Affiliates, and each of the foregoing’s officers, partners, directors, trustees, employees, advisors, agents and sub-agents, to the extent that such Agent shall not have been reimbursed by any Loan Party (but without limiting such Loan Party’s reimbursement obligations hereunder), for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including fees and disbursements of financial and legal advisors) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent or any of its Affiliates, or any of the foregoing’s officers, partners, directors, trustees, employees, advisors, agents or sub-agents, in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or otherwise in its capacity as such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction. If any indemnity furnished to any Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty,

125

action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement in excess of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Pro Rata Share thereof; and provided further this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement described in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence. Without limiting the foregoing, each ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to reimburse the Agents promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including fees, expenses and disbursements of financial and legal advisors) incurred by the Agents in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of its rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, to the extent that the Agents are not reimbursed for such expenses by the Company or another Loan Party. Amounts payable pursuant to this Section 11.17 shall be payable on demand.

11.18. Certain ERISA Matters.

(a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person become a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, any Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Company or any Guarantor, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Advances, the Letters of Credit, the Revolving Commitments or this Agreement,

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

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

126

(b) In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, any Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Company or any Guarantor, that no Agent is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Advances, the Letters of Credit, the Revolving Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by any Agent under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other documents related hereto or thereto).

The agreements in this Article XI shall survive the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.

ARTICLE XII

SETOFF; ADJUSTMENTS AMONG LENDERS

12.1. Setoff. In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of the Lenders under applicable law, if any Event of Default exists, any and all deposits (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by any Lender to or for the credit or account of the Company may be offset and applied toward the payment of the Obligations owing by the Company; provided, that if any Defaulting Lender shall exercise such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.17 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

12.2. Ratable Payments. If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it upon its Obligations owing from the Company (other than payments received pursuant to Section 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 10.6 or as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Lender on its Obligations owing from the Company, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of the Advances to the Company held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its ratable proportion of Advances to the Company. If any Lender, whether in connection with setoff or amounts which might be subject to setoff or otherwise, receives any protection for its Obligations or such amounts which may be subject to setoff from or with respect to the Company, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to take such action necessary such that all Lenders share in the benefits of such protection ratably in proportion to their Obligations owing by the Company. In case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made.

127

To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.1 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 12.2 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts of and stated interest on each Participant’s interest in the Advances or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(d) No Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.2 or 3.4 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from

130

a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority, and this Section 13.1 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

13.2. Dissemination of Information. The Company authorizes each Lender to disclose, solely in compliance with applicable laws, to any Participant or potential assignee or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Loan Documents and the creditworthiness of the Company and its Subsidiaries (including the Disqualified Lender list), provided that each Transferee and prospective Transferee agrees to be bound by Section 10.9.

ARTICLE XVII

CERTAIN ADDITIONAL MATTERS

17.1. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

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

135

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

ARTICLE XVIII
