(c) Computation of Interest and Fees. All interest and fees shall be calculated on the basis of actual days elapsed, but computed as if each calendar year consisted of 360 days, subject to limitations of the Highest Lawful Rate. Each determination by Administrative Agent of the Base Rate shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding.

(d) Recapture of Interest Lost as a Result of Interest Limitations. If at any time the rate of interest applicable to any Loan exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the rate of interest which such Loan bears shall be limited to the Highest Lawful Rate, but, notwithstanding any subsequent reductions in the Applicable Rate, the rate of interest which such Loan bears shall not thereafter be reduced below the Highest Lawful Rate until such time as the total amount of interest accrued on such Loan equals the amount of interest which would have accrued if the Applicable Rate had at all times been in effect.

The Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary.

(g) The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank.

Section 2.15 Method of Payment

. All payments of principal, interest, fees and other amounts to be made by Borrower, Parent or any Subsidiary under this Agreement or any other Loan Paper shall be made via wire transfer of funds to Administrative Agent for the account of each Bank’s Applicable Lending Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim, not later than 12:00 noon (Dallas, Texas time) on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day). Borrower or such other Person shall, at the time of making each such payment, specify to Administrative Agent the sums payable by such Person under this Agreement or the other Loan Document to which each such payment is to be applied (and in the event that such Person fails to so specify, or if an Default has occurred and is continuing or if a Potential Default would exist after the making of such payment, Administrative Agent may apply such payment to such Person’s Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and other Obligations in such order and manner as Administrative Agent may elect, subject to Section 2.16). Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default, all proceeds of any Collateral and all other funds of Borrower, Parent or any Subsidiary in the possession of Administrative Agent or any Bank may be applied by Administrative Agent to the Obligations in such order and manner as Administrative Agent may elect, subject to the provisions of Section 2.16. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Default has occurred and is continuing, Administrative Agent and the Banks agree among themselves that all such payments, proceeds and funds, shall be applied (or, in the case of Letter of Credit Liabilities consisting of the undrawn face amount of Letters of Credit, held by Administrative Agent as cash collateral for application against) pro rata to the Outstanding Revolving Credit. Each payment received by Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Paper for the account of the Bank shall be paid promptly to such Bank, in immediately available funds, for the account of such Bank’s Applicable Lending Office. Whenever any payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Paper shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of interest and commitment fee, as the case may be.

Section 2.16 Pro Rata Treatment

. Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement: (a) each Loan shall be made by the Banks under Section 2.1, each payment of commitment fees under Section 2.11 shall be made for the account of the Banks, and each termination or reduction of the Commitments under Section 2.13 shall be applied to the appropriate Commitments of the applicable Banks, pro rata according to the respective unused Commitments; (b) the making of Loans shall be made pro rata among the Banks according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (c) each payment and prepayment by Borrower of principal of or interest on Loans shall be made to Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of such Loans held by such Banks; and (d) the Banks (other than the Issuing Bank) shall purchase participations in the Letters of Credit pro rata in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share.

Section 2.17 Sharing of Payments, Etc.

If a Bank shall obtain payment of any principal of or interest on any of the Obligations due to such Bank hereunder through the exercise of any right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar right, or otherwise, it shall promptly purchase from the other Banks participations in the Obligations held by the other Banks in such amounts, and make such adjustments from time to time, as shall be equitable to the end that all Banks shall share pro rata in accordance with the unpaid principal and interest on the Obligations then due to each of them. To such end, all Banks shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter rescinded or must otherwise be restored. Each of Borrower, Parent and the Subsidiaries agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Bank so purchasing a participation in the Obligations by the other Banks may exercise all rights of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were a direct holder of Obligations in the amount of such participation. Nothing contained herein shall require any Bank to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Bank to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness, liability or obligation of Borrower, Parent or any of the Subsidiaries.

Section 2.18 Non-Receipt of Funds by Administrative Agent

. Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by a Bank or Borrower (“Payor”) prior to the date on which such Bank is to make payment to Administrative Agent of the proceeds of a Loan to be made by it hereunder or Borrower is to make a payment to Administrative Agent for the account of one or more of Banks, as the case may be (such payment being herein called the “Required Payment”), which notice shall be effective upon receipt, that Payor does not intend to make the Required Payment to Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may assume that the Required Payment has been made and may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make the amount thereof available to the intended recipient on such date and, if Payor has not in fact made the Required Payment to Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand, pay to Administrative Agent the amount made available to it together with interest thereon in respect of the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by Administrative Agent until the date Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate for such period.

Section 2.19 Withholding Taxes.

(a) All payments by Borrower of principal of and interest on the Loans and the Letter of Credit Liabilities and of all fees and other amounts payable under the Loan Papers shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction by reason of, any present or future taxes, levies, duties, imposts, assessments or other charges levied or imposed by any Tribunal (other than any taxes imposed on the taxable income of Administrative Agent or any Bank or any lending office of Administrative Agent or such Bank by any jurisdiction in which Administrative Agent or such Bank or any such lending office is located). If any such taxes, levies, duties, imposts, assessments or other charges are so levied or imposed, upon Borrower receiving written notice of the detailed calculation of same Borrower will (i) make additional payments in such amounts so that every net payment of principal of and interest on the Loans and the Letter of Credit Liabilities and of all other amounts payable by it under the Loan Papers, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any such present or future taxes, levies, duties, imposts, assessments or other charges (including any tax imposed on or measured by taxable income of a Bank attributable to payments made to or on behalf of a Bank pursuant to this Section 2.19 and any penalties or interest attributable to such payments), will not be less than the amount provided for herein or therein absent such withholding or deduction (provided that Borrower shall not have any obligation to pay such additional amounts to any Bank to the extent that such taxes, levies, duties, imposts, assessments or other charges are levied or imposed by reason of the failure of such Bank to comply with the provisions of Section 2.20), (ii) make such withholding or deduction, and (iii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Tribunal in accordance with applicable Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower will, upon written request of any Bank, reimburse each such Bank for the amount of (A) such taxes, levies, duties, imports, assessments or other charges so levied or imposed by any Tribunal and paid by such Bank as a result of payments made by Borrower under or with respect to the Loans, other than such taxes, levies, duties, imports, assessments and other charges previously withheld or deducted by Borrower which have previously resulted in the payment of the required additional amount to Bank, and (B) such taxes, levies, duties, assessments and other charges so levied or imposed with respect to any Bank reimbursement under the foregoing clause (A), so that the net amount received by such Bank (net of payments made under or with respect to the Loans and the Letter of Credit Liabilities) after such reimbursement will not be less than the net amount such Bank would have received if such taxes, levies, duties, assessments and other charges on such reimbursement had not been levied or imposed. Borrower shall furnish promptly to Administrative Agent for distribution to each affected Bank, upon request of each such Bank, official receipts evidencing any such payment, withholding or reduction.

(b) Upon Borrower receiving written notice of the charging of same (including a detailed calculation of same), Borrower will indemnify Administrative Agent and each Bank (without duplication) against, and reimburse Administrative Agent and each Bank for, all present and future taxes, levies, duties, imposts, assessments or other charges (including interest and penalties) levied or collected (whether or not legally or correctly imposed, assessed, levied or collected), excluding, however, any taxes imposed on the overall taxable income of Administrative Agent or such Bank or any lending office of Administrative Agent or such Bank by any jurisdiction in which Administrative Agent or such Bank or any such lending office is located, on or in respect of this Agreement, any of the Loan Papers or the Obligations or any portion thereof (“reimbursable taxes”). Any such indemnification shall be on an after-tax basis, taking into account any such reimbursable taxes imposed on the amounts paid as indemnity.

(c) If and to the extent actually known by such Bank, each Bank will use reasonable efforts to notify Borrower and Administrative Agent, in a reasonably prompt fashion after such assignment is made, of any assignment of the Commitment or the Loans by such Bank to an Eligible Assignee which is subject to a withholding tax that will impose any payment obligation upon Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.19. Each Bank will use reasonable efforts to notify Borrower and Administrative Agent of any amounts to be paid by Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.19 in a reasonably prompt fashion after such Bank becomes aware of the circumstances which require the payment of such amounts by Borrower.

Section 2.20 Withholding Tax Exemption

. Each Bank that is not incorporated or otherwise formed under the Laws of the U.S. or a state thereof agrees that it will, prior to or on or about the Closing Date or the date upon which it becomes a party to this Agreement, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form 1001, 4224 or W-8, as appropriate, certifying in any case that such Bank is entitled to receive payments from Borrower under any Loan Paper without deduction or withholding of any U.S. federal income taxes. Each Bank which so delivers a Form 1001, 4224 or W-8 further undertakes to deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent two additional copies of such form (or a successor form) on or before the date such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form so delivered by it, and such amendments thereto or extensions or renewals thereof as may be reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, in each case certifying that such Bank is entitled to receive payments from Borrower under any Loan Paper without deduction or withholding of any U.S. federal income taxes, unless an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, Law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Bank from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Bank advises Borrower and Administrative Agent that it is not capable of receiving such payments without any deduction or withholding of U.S. federal income tax.

Section 2.21 Reinstatement of Obligations

. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Paper, if the payment of any amount of principal of or interest with respect to the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations or any other amount of the Obligations, or any portion thereof, is rescinded, voided or must otherwise be refunded by Administrative Agent, any Bank or Issuing Bank upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries or otherwise for any reason whatsoever, then each of (a) the Obligations, (b) the Loan Papers (including, without limitation, this Agreement, the Notes, the Guaranty Agreements and the Security Agreement), (c) the indebtedness, liabilities and obligations of Borrower, Parent and the Subsidiaries under the Loan Papers, and (d) all Liens for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Banks created under or evidenced by the Loan Papers, will be automatically reinstated and become automatically effective and in full force and effect, all to the extent that and as though such payment so rescinded, voided or otherwise refunded had never been made.

Section 2.22 Capital Adequacy

. If, after the Closing Date, any Bank shall have determined that the adoption or implementation of any applicable Law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any central bank or other Tribunal charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Bank (or its parent) with any guideline, request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any central bank or other Tribunal, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Bank’s (or its parent’s) capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or the transactions contemplated hereby to a level below that which such Bank (or its parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, implementation, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Bank’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, within ten Business Days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to Administrative Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank (or its parent) for such reduction. A certificate of such Bank claiming compensation under this Section 2.22, and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error, provided that the determination thereof is made on a reasonable basis. In determining such amount or amounts, such Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

Each Bank, Borrower and the other Companies agree that Administrative Agent is not a fiduciary for the Banks or for Borrower or any other Company but simply is acting in the capacity described herein to alleviate administrative burdens for all parties hereto and that Administrative Agent has no duties or responsibilities to the Banks, Borrower or any other Company except those expressly set forth herein.

Each Bank, Borrower and the other Companies agree that Collateral Agent is not a fiduciary for the Banks or for Borrower or any other Company but simply is acting in the capacity described herein to alleviate administrative burdens for all parties hereto and that Collateral Agent has no duties or responsibilities to the Banks, Borrower or any other Company except those expressly set forth herein.

Each of the Banks agrees to immediately reimburse Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for any amount so advanced on its behalf by Administrative Agent. If any such reimbursement is not made in immediately available funds on the same day on which Administrative Agent shall have made any such amount available on behalf of any Bank, such Bank shall pay interest to Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to Administrative Agent’s cost of obtaining overnight funds in the Dallas Federal Funds market. All amounts to be paid to any of the Banks by Administrative Agent shall be credited to the Banks, forthwith after collection by Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds either by wire transfer or deposit in such Bank’s account with Administrative Agent, or as such Bank and the Administrative Agent shall from time to time agree.

Borrower and the Companies expressly consent to the foregoing arrangements and agree that any Bank or Banks holding (or deemed to be holding) a participation in any of the Loans or other Obligations may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by Borrower or any other Company to such Bank.

Section 9.17 Effect of Investigations

. All covenants, agreements, undertakings, representations and warranties. made in any of the Loan Papers shall survive all closings under the Loan Papers and, except as otherwise indicated, shall not be affected by any investigation made by any party.

Section 9.18 GOVERNING LAW; VENUE; SERVICE OF PROCESS.

(b) CHAPTER 346 OF THE TEXAS FINANCE CODE SHALL NOT APPLY TO THE REVOLVING CREDIT LOANS.

(c) ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST ANY COMPANY UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY OF THE LOAN PAPERS MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN DALLAS COUNTY, TEXAS.

ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY ANY COMPANY AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK, OR ANY BANK SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN A COURT LOCATED IN DALLAS COUNTY, TEXAS.

Section 9.19 Maximum Interest Rate.

(a) No interest rate specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Paper shall at any time exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If at any time the interest rate (the “Contract Rate”) for any Obligation shall exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, thereby causing the interest accruing on such Obligation to be limited to the Highest Lawful Rate, then any subsequent reduction in the Contract Rate for such Obligation shall not reduce the rate of interest on such Obligation below the Highest Lawful Rate until the aggregate amount of interest accrued on such Obligation equals the aggregate amount of interest which would have accrued on such Obligation if the Contract Rate for such Obligation had at all times been in effect.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Papers, none of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Papers shall ever .be construed to create a contract or obligation to pay interest at a rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate; and neither any Agent nor any Bank shall ever charge, receive, take, collect, reserve or apply, as interest on the Obligations, any amount in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate. The parties hereto agree that any interest, charge, fee, expense or other obligation provided for in this Agreement or in the other Loan Papers which constitutes interest under applicable Law shall be, ipso facto and under any and all circumstances, limited or reduced to an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of such interest, charge, fee, expense or other obligation that would be payable in the absence of this Section 9.19(b) or (ii) an amount, which when added to all other interest payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Papers, equals the Highest Lawful Rate. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Agent or any Bank ever contracts for, charges, receives, takes, collects, reserves or applies as interest any amount in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, such amount which would be deemed excessive interest shall be deemed a partial payment or prepayment of principal of the Obligations and treated hereunder as such; and if the Obligations, or applicable portions thereof, are paid in full, any remaining excess shall promptly be paid to the Borrower, Parent or Subsidiary (as appropriate). In determining whether the interest paid or payable, under any specific contingency, exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the parties hereto shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, (i) characterize any nonprincipal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the Obligations, or applicable portions thereof, so that the interest rate does not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate at any time during the term of the Obligations; provided that, if the unpaid principal balance is paid and performed in full prior to the end of the full contemplated term thereof, and if the interest received for the actual period of existence thereof exc ▇▇▇▇ the Highest Lawful Rate, the Agents and/or the Banks, as appropriate, shall refund to the applicable Person the amount of such excess and, in such event, the Agents and the Banks shall not be subject to any penalties provided by any Laws for contracting for, charging, receiving, taking, collecting, reserving or applying interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate.

Section 9.20 Invalid Provisions

. If any provision of any of the Loan Papers is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future Laws effective during the term thereof, such provision shall be fully severable; the appropriate Loan Papers shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part thereof; and the remaining provisions thereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance therefrom. Furthermore, in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there shall be added automatically as a part of such Loan Papers a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid and enforceable.

Section 9.21 Entirety and Amendments

Each Bank and each holder of a Note shall be bound by any waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this Section regardless of whether its Note shall have been marked to make reference thereto, and any consent by any Bank or holder of a Note pursuant to this Section shall bind any person subsequently acquiring a Note from it, whether or not such Note shall have been so marked.
