If the Administrative Agent and all the Lenders consent to making Eurocurrency Rate Loans in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Company and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternate Currency hereunder for purposes of any Borrowings of Eurocurrency Rate Loans; and if the Administrative Agent and an Issuing Bank consent to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Company and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternate Currency hereunder for purposes of any Letter of Credit issuances by such Issuing Bank. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for an additional currency under this Section 1.07, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Company.

(a) Each obligation of the Borrowers to make a payment denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the date hereof shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of such adoption (in accordance with the EMU Legislation). If, in relation to the currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the London interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention or practice with effect from the date on

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

which such member state adopts the Euro as its lawful currency; provided that if any Borrowing in the currency of such member state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Borrowing, at the end of the then current Interest Period.

(b) Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent and the Company may agree from time to time and specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the Euro.

If the Total Committed Increase is less than $10,000,000, then the Total Commitments shall not be changed.

(vi) The Total Committed Increase shall be allocated among New Lenders having Proposed New Commitments and Lenders having Proposed Increased Commitments as follows:

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

Bank’s Proposed Increased Commitment (if any) determined pursuant to clause (y) above and representing an increased Multicurrency Swing Loan Commitment to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Proposed Increased Commitments representing an increased Total Multicurrency Swing Loan Commitment.

(vii) No increase in the Commitments contemplated hereby shall become effective until the Administrative Agent shall have received (x) Revolving Loan Notes payable by each of the Borrowers to each New Lender and each Increasing Lender that has requested Notes and (y) evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (including an update of paragraphs 2 and 4 of the opinion of counsel provided pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(iv)) that such increases in the Commitments, and borrowings thereunder, have been duly authorized.

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

(i) Base Rate Loans, Swing Loans in Dollars and Letter of Credit Loans. If such Loan is either a Revolving Loan, a Swing Loan that is denominated in Dollars or a Letter of Credit Loan which, in each case, bears interest at the Base Rate, a rate per annum equal at all times to the Base Rate in effect from time to time, payable on (A) each Quarterly Date while such Revolving Loan or Swing Loan is outstanding or (B) the last day of each month during which such Letter of Credit Loan is outstanding, and in each case, on the date such Revolving Loan, Swing Loan or Letter of Credit Loan shall be paid in full.

(ii) Multicurrency Swing Loans. If such Loan is a Swing Loan that is (x) denominated in Sterling, a rate per annum equal at all times to the Sterling Swing Loan Rate in effect from time to time and (y) denominated in Euros, a rate per annum equal at all times to the Euro Swing Loan Rate in effect from time to time, in each case payable on each Quarterly Date while such Swing Loan is outstanding and on the date such Swing Loan shall be paid in full.

(iii) Eurocurrency Rate Loans. If such Loan is a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Loan to the sum of the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin, payable on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, at three-month intervals following the first day of such Interest Period.

(iv) Competitive Bid Loans. If such Loan is a Competitive Bid Loan, a rate of interest for such Competitive Bid Loan specified by the Lender making such Competitive Bid Loan in its notice with respect thereto delivered pursuant to Section 3.02, payable on the interest payment date or dates specified by the Company for such Competitive Bid Loan in the related Notice of Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing delivered pursuant to Section 3.02 and as provided in the Competitive Bid Loan Note, if any, evidencing such Competitive Bid Loan.

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

annum equal at all times to two percentage points (2%) per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on Base Rate Loans pursuant to clause (a)(i) above.

SECTION 2.09 Interest Rate Determinations.

(a) [Intentionally omitted].

(b) The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Company and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of Section 2.08(a)(i), (ii) and (iii).

(c) If in connection with any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a Conversion to a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a request for a Multicurrency Swing Loan, the Administrative Agent determines that (i) deposits in the relevant Currency are not being offered to prime banks in the London interbank market or other applicable offshore interbank market for such Currency for the applicable Interest Period or in the applicable amounts, or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Multicurrency Swing Loan in the relevant Currency or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Company and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders or the Multicurrency Swing Loan Banks, as the case may be, to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Multicurrency Swing Loans, as applicable, in the affected Currency or Currencies shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Rate Loans, Multicurrency Swing Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurocurrency Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of Swing Loans or a Borrowing of, or Conversion to, Eurocurrency Rate Loans, in each case, in the affected Currency or Currencies or, failing that, solely in the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan denominated in Dollars, will be deemed to have Converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing (but subject to the ability of a Borrower to revoke any request), in the case of a pending request for a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Conversion in an Alternate Currency as to which the Administrative Agent has made the determination described in the first sentence of this section, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Company and the Lenders, may establish an alternative interest rate that reflects the all-in-cost of funds to the Administrative Agent (assuming for this limited purpose that the Administrative Agent is acting as a Lender) for funding Loans in the applicable Currency and amount, and with the same Interest Period as the Eurocurrency Rate Loan requested to be made or Converted, as the case may be (the “Impacted Loans”) and adjust the Applicable Margin as may be necessary to preserve the existing differentials between the underlying reference rate and Eurocurrency Rate Loans in such Currency, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (x) the Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under the first sentence of this section, (y) the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent and the Company that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the Impacted Loans, or (z) any Lender

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

determines that any applicable law has made it unlawful, or that any applicable governmental authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any applicable governmental authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Administrative Agent and the Company written notice thereof.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Lender whose Termination Date falls prior to the last day of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Loan (a “Relevant Lender”) shall participate in such Loan. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Relevant Lender shall (i) participate in a Borrowing of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan having an initial Interest Period ending after such Lender’s Termination Date, (ii) have any outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Loan continued for a subsequent Interest Period if such subsequent Interest Period would end after such Lender’s Termination Date or (iii) have any outstanding Base Rate Loan Converted into a Eurocurrency Rate Loan if such Eurocurrency Rate Loan would have an initial Interest Period ending after such Lender’s Termination Date. If any Relevant Lender has outstanding a Eurocurrency Rate Loan that cannot be continued for a subsequent Interest Period pursuant to clause (ii) above or has outstanding a Base Rate Loan that cannot be Converted into a Eurocurrency Rate Loan pursuant to clause (iii) above, such Lender’s ratable share of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan (in the case of said clause (ii)) shall be repaid by the relevant Borrower on the last day of its then current Interest Period and such Lender’s ratable share of such Base Rate Loan (in the case of said clause (iii)) shall be repaid by the relevant Borrower on the day on which the Loans of Lenders unaffected by said clause (iii) are so Converted. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrowers may fund the repayment of the Relevant Lenders’ ratable shares of such Eurocurrency Rate Loans and Base Rate Loans by borrowing from Lenders hereunder that are not Relevant Lenders.

SECTION 2.10 Prepayments.

(a) The Borrowers shall have no right to prepay any principal amount of any Revolving Loan or Swing Loan other than as provided in subsection (b) below. Unless otherwise agreed by the relevant Lender in its sole discretion, no Borrower shall have the right to prepay any principal amount of any Competitive Bid Loan of such Lender except on the terms specified by the Company for such Competitive Bid Loan in the related Notice of Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing delivered pursuant to Section 3.02 and set forth in the Competitive Bid Loan Note, if any, evidencing such Competitive Bid Loan.

(b) Each Borrower may without premium or penalty, (i) upon at least the number of Business Days’ prior notice specified in the first sentence of Section 3.01(a) with respect to any Revolving Loan of the same Type, (ii) upon notice by no later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of prepayment of any Swing Loan denominated in Dollars, or (iii) upon notice by no later than 11:00 AM (London time) one Business Day prior to the date of prepayment of any Multicurrency Swing Loan, in any case given to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given, such Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amounts of the Loans made to such Borrower comprising part of the same Revolving Loan Borrowing or Swing Loan Borrowing, as the case may be, in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided that the Company may condition any such notice upon the consummation of an acquisition, disposition, financing or other event; provided further, however, that (x) each partial prepayment (other than any prepayment of any Swing Loan) shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or the Foreign Currency Equivalent of such respective amounts in the case of Loans denominated in an Alternate Currency) and (y) if any prepayment of any Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be made on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period for such Loans (or on a date which is not the maturity date of such Swing Loans), such Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing to each Lender pursuant to Section 9.04(c) so long as such Lender makes written demand upon such Borrower therefor (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent) within 20 Business Days after such prepayment.

(c) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, if so requested in writing by the Required Lenders through the Administrative Agent within sixty (60) days after the Company notifies the Administrative Agent of the occurrence of such Change of Control, (i) the Company shall, on a day not later than five Business Days after the date of such request, prepay and/or cause to be prepaid the full principal of and interest on the Loans and all other amounts whatsoever payable under this Agreement (including without limitation amounts payable under Section 9.04(c) as a result of such prepayment) and provide cash collateral for all outstanding Letters of Credit as provided in Section 7.02 (as if an Event of Default had occurred and was continuing) and (ii) the Commitments shall, on the date of such request, forthwith terminate.

(d) If (i) the obligations of the Company under Article X with respect to any outstanding Guaranteed Obligations owing by any Designated Borrower (herein, the “Affected Borrower”) shall for any reason (x) be terminated, (y) cease to be in full force and effect or (z) not be the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, and (ii) such condition continues unremedied for 15 days after written notice thereof shall have been given to the Company by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, then the Affected Borrower shall, no later than the 15th day after the date of such notice, prepay (and the Company shall cause to be prepaid) the full principal of and interest on the Loans owing by such Affected Borrower and all other amounts whatsoever payable hereunder by such Affected Borrower (including, without limitation, all amounts payable under Section 9.04(c) as a result of such prepayment).

SECTION 2.11 Payments and Computations.

(a) All payments of principal of and interest on each Loan in a particular Currency shall be made in such Currency except all payments of principal of and interest on each Letter of Credit Loan denominated in an Alternate Currency shall be made in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Alternate Currency payment amount.

(b) (i) All payments of principal of and interest on the Loans and all other amounts whatsoever payable by a Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be made in Same Day Funds, without condition or deduction for any setoff, defense, recoupment or counterclaim, to the Administrative Agent’s Account for the relevant Currency, not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) (in the case of amounts payable in Dollars) or 11:00 A.M. Local Time in the location of the Administrative Agent’s Account (in

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

the case of amounts payable in an Alternate Currency), on the day when due, provided that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States, and, if, for any reason, any Borrower is prohibited by any law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternate Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Alternate Currency payment amount; provided further that if a new Loan is to be made by any Lender to any Borrower on a date on which such Borrower is to repay any principal of an outstanding Loan of such Lender in the same Currency, such Lender shall apply the proceeds of such new Loan to the payment of the principal to be repaid and only an amount equal to the difference between the principal to be borrowed and the principal to be repaid shall be made available by such Lender to the Administrative Agent as provided in Article III or paid by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.11, as the case may be.

(ii) The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.09(d), 2.12, 2.15(c) or 3.05) to the Lenders entitled thereto for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(iii) Upon its acceptance of an Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(d), from and after the effective date specified in such Acceptance the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in respect of the interest assigned or assumed thereby to the Lender assignee or New Lender thereunder (as the case may be). The parties to each Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.

(c) All computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate (other than with respect to Base Rate Loans) will be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that (i) with respect to any Loan denominated in Sterling such computations will be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 days and (ii) with respect to any Loan denominated in an Alternate Currency (other than Sterling and Euro) such computations will be made by the Administrative Agent in accordance with market practice for such Alternate Currency, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable. All computations of interest in respect of Base Rate Loans and of facility fees and letter of credit commission will be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(d) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

computation of payment of interest, facility fee, or letter of credit commission, as the case may be; provided, however, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Rate Loans to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

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

(f) Anything in Sections 2.07 or 2.08 to the contrary notwithstanding, and without prejudice to Sections 2.08(b) or 7.01(a), if any Borrower shall fail to pay any principal or interest denominated in an Alternate Currency within one Business Day after the due date therefor in the case of principal and three Business Days after the due date therefor in the case of interest (without giving effect to any acceleration of maturity under Article VII), the amount so in default shall automatically be redenominated in Dollars on the day one Business Day after the due date therefor in the case of a principal payment and three Business Days after the due date therefor in the case of an interest payment in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such principal or interest.

SECTION 2.12 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by each Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.11, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender (which for all purposes of this Section 2.12 shall include each Issuing Bank) and the Administrative Agent, taxes imposed on or measured by its net income (including alternative minimum taxable income), franchise taxes imposed on it, by any jurisdiction under the laws of which such Person is organized or in which such Person is resident or doing business, or any political subdivision thereof and any United States federal withholding tax that would not have been imposed but for a failure by a Lender (or any financial institution through which any payment is made to such Lender) to comply with the procedures, certifications, information reporting, disclosure, or other related requirements of FATCA (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If any Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents to any such Person, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.12) such Person receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, each Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) Each Borrower will indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.12) paid in good faith by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including, without limitation, penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted; provided, however, that (i) no Borrower shall be liable to any Person, as the case may be, for any liability arising from or with respect to Taxes or Other Taxes, which results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, (ii) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each Borrower in contesting any Taxes or Other Taxes which such Borrower reasonably deems to be not correctly or legally asserted or otherwise not due and owing and (iii) no Borrower shall be liable to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, for any such liability arising prior to the date 120 days prior to the date on which such Person first makes written demand upon such Borrower for indemnification therefor. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor.

(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes by a Borrower, such Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(e) (i) Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Bank and on the date of the Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event within the control of such Lender (including a change in Applicable Lending Office but not including a change in law) requiring a change in the most recent form so delivered by it, and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by the Company (but only so long thereafter as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Company with either Internal Revenue Service form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying in the case of form W-8BEN that such Lender is either (i) entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party that reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments under this Agreement or (ii) a Portfolio Interest Eligible Non-Bank (as defined below) or certifying in the case of form W-8ECI that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States. If the form provided by a Lender at the time such Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement indicates

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero (or if such Lender cannot provide at such time such form because it is not entitled to reduced withholding under a treaty and the payments are not effectively connected income), withholding tax at such rate (or at the then existing U.S. statutory rate if the Lender cannot provide such a form) shall be considered excluded from “Taxes” as defined in Section 2.12(a) unless and until such Lender provides the appropriate form certifying that a zero rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such zero rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such form; provided, however, that, if at the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender assignee becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender assignor was in compliance with the provisions of Section 9.07(h) and was entitled to payments under Section 2.12(a) in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term “Taxes” shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States interest withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender assignee on such date. If any form or document referred to in this Section 2.12(e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by Internal Revenue Service form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, that the relevant Lender considers to be confidential, such Lender shall give notice thereof to the Company and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information. For purposes of this paragraph (e) the term “Portfolio Interest Eligible Non-Bank” means a Lender that certifies in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower that (i) it is not a bank within the meaning of Code section 881(c)(3)(A), (ii) it is not a 10% shareholder of any Borrower within the meaning of Code section 881(c)(3)(B) and (iii) it is not a controlled foreign corporation related to any Borrower within the meaning of Code section 881(c)(3)(C).

(ii) In addition, upon the reasonable request of the Company (through the Administrative Agent) on behalf of any Borrower that is not a U.S. Borrower, each Lender will use all reasonable efforts to provide to such Borrower (if it can do so without material cost to such Lender) such forms or other documentation as may be requested by such Borrower in order to cause interest on Loans to such Borrower, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to be subject to a reduced rate of withholding under the laws of the jurisdiction of organization of such Borrower; and if any such form or document requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof, that the relevant Lender considers to be confidential, such Lender shall give notice thereof to the Company and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information.

(f) For any period with respect to which a Person that is required pursuant to Section 2.12(e) to provide a Borrower with any documentation described therein but has failed to provide a Borrower with such documentation or notice that it cannot provide such form or other documentation (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring subsequent to the date on which a form or other documentation originally was required to be provided, or if such form or other documentation otherwise is not required under the first sentence of subsection (e) above), such Person shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 2.12(a) with respect to Taxes; provided, however, that should a Lender become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form or other documentation required hereunder, the relevant

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

Borrower shall take such steps as the Lender shall reasonably request to assist the Lender to recover such Taxes.

(g) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(h) Notwithstanding any contrary provisions of this Agreement, in the event that a Lender that originally provided such form or other documentation as may be required under Section 2.12(e) thereafter ceases to qualify for complete exemption from withholding tax, such Lender may assign its interest under this Agreement to any Eligible Assignee and such assignee shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Section 2.12 as the assignor provided that the rate of withholding tax applicable to such assignee shall not exceed the rate then applicable to the assignor.

(i) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrowers hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrowers contained in this Section 2.12 shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and the termination of the Commitments.

(j) If a Borrower is required to pay any Lender any Taxes under Section 2.12(c), such Lender shall be an “Affected Person”, and the Company shall have the rights set forth in Section 3.08 to replace such Affected Person.

(k) 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 or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (k), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause (k), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

SECTION 2.13 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Revolving Loans, the Swing Loans or the Letter of Credit Loans made by it (other than pursuant to Section 2.09(d), 2.12, 2.15(c), 3.05, 3.08 or 9.04(c)) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Revolving Loans, the Swing Loans or the Letter of Credit Loans obtained by all such Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

such other Lenders such participations in the Revolving Loans, the Swing Loans or the Letter of Credit Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them, provided, however, that, (x) if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered and (y) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (i) any payment made by or on behalf of a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender). Each Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.13 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 2.14 Conversion of Revolving Loans.

(a) Optional. Each Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on (x) the third (or the fourth, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in an Alternate Currency) Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion into Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (y) the first Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion into Base Rate Loans, and, in each case, subject to the provisions of Section 3.05, Convert all or any portion of the Revolving Loans of one Type in the same Currency comprising the same Revolving Loan Borrowing into Revolving Loans of the other Type in the same Currency; provided, however, that any Conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Loans into Base Rate Loans shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Loans and any Conversion of Base Rate Loans into Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 3.01(b). Each such notice of Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Revolving Loans to be Converted and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the duration of the initial Interest Period for such Revolving Loans. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrowers.

(b) Mandatory. If the Company shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Loans in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Company and the Lenders, whereupon each such Eurocurrency Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, if it is a Eurocurrency Rate Loan denominated in Dollars, Convert into a Base Rate Loan or if it is a Eurocurrency Rate Loan denominated in a Currency other than Dollars, be continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loan in its original Currency with an Interest Period of one month.

(c) Conversions Generally. Each Borrower and the Lenders hereby acknowledge that Conversions pursuant to this Section 2.14 do not constitute Borrowings and,

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

accordingly, do not result in the remaking of any of the Company’s representations and warranties pursuant to Section 4.02 or Section 4.03.

SECTION 2.15 Extension of Termination Date.

(a) The Company may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders) not less than 45 days and not more than 90 days prior to each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the Effective Date (each anniversary, an “Anniversary Date”), request that each Lender extend such Lender’s Termination Date to the date (the “New Termination Date”) that is one year after the then Final Termination Date. Each Lender, acting in its sole discretion, shall, by written notice to the Administrative Agent given no later than the date (the “Consent Date”) that is 20 days prior to the relevant Anniversary Date (provided that, if such date is not a Business Day, the Consent Date shall be the next succeeding Business Day), advise the Administrative Agent as to:

(1) whether or not such Lender agrees to such extension of its Termination Date (each Lender so agreeing to such extension being an “Extending Lender”); and

(2) only if such Lender is an Extending Lender, whether or not such Lender also irrevocably offers to increase the amount of its Commitment (each Lender so offering to increase its Commitment being an “Increasing Lender” as well as an Extending Lender) and, if so, the amount of the additional Commitment such Lender so irrevocably offers to assume hereunder (such Lender’s “Proposed Additional Commitment”).

Each Lender that determines not to extend its Termination Date (a “Non-Extending Lender”) shall notify the Administrative Agent (which shall notify the Lenders) of such fact promptly after such determination but in any event no later than the Consent Date, and any Lender that does not advise the Administrative Agent in writing on or before the Consent Date shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Lender and (without limiting the Company’s rights under Section 2.15(c)) shall have no liability to the Company in connection therewith. The election of any Lender to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Lender to so agree. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Company of each Lender’s determination under this Section 2.15(a) no later than the date 15 days prior to the relevant Anniversary Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the next preceding Business Day).

(b) (i) If all of the Lenders are Extending Lenders, then, effective as of the Consent Date, the Termination Date of each Lender shall be extended to the New Termination Date, and the respective Commitments of the Lenders will not be subject to change at such Consent Date pursuant to this Section 2.15.

(ii) If and only if the sum of (x) the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Extending Lenders plus (y) the aggregate amount of the Proposed Additional Commitments of the Increasing Lenders (such sum, the “Extending Commitments”) shall be equal to at least 50% of the then Total Commitments, then:

(1) effective as of the Consent Date, the Termination Date of each Extending Lender shall be extended to the New Termination Date;

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

(2) the Company shall (so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing) have the right, but not the obligation, to take either of the following actions with respect to each Non-Extending Lender during the period commencing on the Consent Date and ending on the immediately succeeding Anniversary Date:

(X) the Company may elect by notice to the Administrative Agent and such Non-Extending Lender that the Termination Date of such Non-Extending Lender be changed to a date (which date shall be specified in such notice) on or prior to such immediately succeeding Anniversary Date (and, upon the giving of such notice, the Termination Date of such Non-Extending Lender shall be so changed); or

(Y) the Company may replace such Non-Extending Lender as a party to this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.15(c); and

(3) the Administrative Agent shall notify the Issuing Banks and the Swing Loan Banks of the New Termination Date and the Lenders whose Termination Dates are the New Termination Date and each Issuing Bank and each Swing Loan Bank shall determine whether or not, acting in its sole discretion, it shall elect to extend its Termination Date to the New Termination Date and shall so notify the Administrative Agent, at which time such Issuing Bank’s obligation to issue Letters of Credit pursuant to Sections 2.04 and 3.04 shall be extended to the date that is 30 days prior to the New Termination Date and such Swing Loan Bank’s obligation to make Swing Loans to the Borrowers pursuant to Sections 2.03 and 3.03 shall be extended to the date that is 15 Business Days prior to the New Termination Date.

(iii) If neither of the conditions specified in clause (i) or clause (ii) of this Section 2.15(b) is satisfied, then neither the Termination Date nor the Commitment of any Lender will change pursuant to this Section 2.15 on such Consent Date, and the Company will not have the right to take any of the actions specified in Section 2.15(b)(ii)(2).

(c) Replacement by the Company of Non-Extending Lenders pursuant to Section 2.15(b)(ii)(2)(Y) shall be effected as follows (certain terms being used in this Section 2.15(c) having the meanings assigned to them in Section 2.15(d)) on the relevant Assignment Date:

(1) the Assignors shall severally assign and transfer to the Assignees, and the Assignees shall severally purchase and assume from the Assignors, all of the Assignors’ rights and obligations (including, without limitation, the Assignors’ respective Commitments) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents;

(2) each Assignee shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for account of the Assignors, an amount equal to such Assignee’s Share of the

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans then held by the Assignors;

(3) the Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for account of the Assignors, all interest, fees and other amounts (other than principal of outstanding Loans) then due and owing to the Assignors by the Company hereunder (including, without limitation, payments due such Assignors, if any, under Sections 2.12, 3.05 and 9.04(c)); and

(4) the Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for account of the Administrative Agent the $3,500 processing and recordation fee for each assignment effected pursuant to this Section 2.15(c).

The assignments provided for in this Section 2.15(c) shall be effected on the relevant Assignment Date in accordance with Section 9.07 and pursuant to one or more Assignments and Acceptances. After giving effect to such assignments, each Assignee shall have a Commitment hereunder (which, if such Assignee was a Lender hereunder immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment, shall be in addition to such Assignee’s existing Commitment) in an amount equal to the amount of its Assumed Commitment representing a Commitment. Upon any such termination or assignment, such Assignee shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be obligated under Section 8.05 and be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.04, as well as to any fees and other amounts accrued for its account under Sections 2.05, 2.12 or 3.05 and not yet paid.

(d) For purposes of this Section 2.15 the following terms shall have the following meanings (such meanings to be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of the terms defined):

“Assigned Commitments” means the Commitments of Non-Extending Lenders to be replaced pursuant to Section 2.15(b)(ii)(2)(Y).

“Assignees” means, at any time, Increasing Lenders and, if the Assigned Commitments exceed the aggregate amount of the Proposed Additional Commitments, one or more New Lenders.

“Assignment Date” means the Anniversary Date or such earlier date as shall be acceptable to the Company, the relevant Assignors, the relevant Assignees and the Administrative Agent.

“Assignors” means, at any time, the Lenders to be replaced by the Company pursuant to Section 2.15(b)(ii)(2)(Y).

The “Assumed Commitment” of each Assignee shall be determined as follows:

(a) If the aggregate amount of the Proposed Additional Commitments of all of the Increasing Lenders shall exceed the aggregate amount of the Assigned Commitments, then (i) the amount of the Assumed Commitment of each Increasing Lender shall be equal to (x) the aggregate amount of the Assigned Commitments multiplied by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to such Increasing Lender’s Commitment as

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

then in effect and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of the Commitments of all Increasing Lenders as then in effect; and (ii) no New Lender shall be entitled to become a Lender hereunder pursuant to Section 2.15(c) (and, accordingly, each New Lender shall have an Assumed Commitment of zero).

(b) If the aggregate amount of the Proposed Additional Commitments of all of the Increasing Lenders shall be less than or equal to the aggregate amount of the Assigned Commitments, then: (i) the amount of the Assumed Commitment of each Increasing Lender shall be equal to such Increasing Lender’s Proposed Additional Commitment; and (ii) the excess, if any, of the aggregate amount of the Assigned Commitments over the aggregate amount of the Proposed Additional Commitments shall be allocated among New Lenders in such a manner as the Company and the Administrative Agent may agree.

“Share” means, as to any Assignee, a fraction the numerator of which is equal to such Assignee’s Assumed Commitment and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of the Assumed Commitments of all the Assignees.

SECTION 2.16 Borrowings by Designated Borrowers.

(a) The Company may, at any time or from time to time, upon not less than five Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, designate one or more Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries as Borrowers hereunder by furnishing to the Administrative Agent a letter (a “Designation Letter”) in duplicate, in substantially the form of Exhibit F-1, duly completed and executed by the Company and such Subsidiary. Upon the effectiveness of any such designation of a Subsidiary as provided in Section 2.16(c), such Subsidiary shall be a Designated Borrower and a Borrower entitled to borrow Revolving Loans, Swing Loans and Competitive Bid Loans and to request the issuance of Letters of Credit on and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of each such designation by the Company and the identity of the respective Subsidiary.

(b) Following the delivery of a Designation Letter pursuant to Section 2.16(a), if the policies and procedures of the Administrative Agent or any Lender require it to comply with “know your customer” or similar identification procedures in connection with the designation of such Designated Borrower, the Company shall, promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, supply such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in order for the Administrative Agent or such Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with the results of all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations. In addition, as soon as practicable, and in any event not later than five Business Days after the Company’s delivery of the Designation Letter, any Lender that has not determined that it is legally permitted to lend to, establish credit for the account of and/or do business with such Designated Borrower directly or through an assignment to an Affiliate of such Lender pursuant to Section 9.07 (a “Designated Lender”) shall so notify the Company and the Administrative Agent in writing. If a Designated Lender has so notified the Company and the Administrative Agent, the Company may at its option notify the Administrative Agent and

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

such Designated Lender that the Commitments of such Designated Lender shall be terminated; provided that such Designated Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company or the relevant Designated Borrower (in the case of all other amounts).

(c) A Designation Letter shall become effective on the seventh Business Day following delivery thereof unless a Lender has identified itself as a Designated Lender within the time period specified in Section 2.16(b), in which case, the Designation Letter for such Subsidiary will not be effective unless and until either the Commitments of each Designated Lender have been terminated in accordance with Section 2.16(b) or all Lenders cease to be Designated Lenders with respect to such Designated Subsidiary.

(d) So long as all principal of and interest on all Loans made to any Designated Borrower have been paid in full, the Company may terminate the status of such Borrower as a Borrower hereunder by furnishing to the Administrative Agent a letter (a “Termination Letter”) in substantially the form of Exhibit F-2, duly completed and executed by the Company. Any Termination Letter furnished hereunder shall be effective upon receipt by the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify the Lenders, whereupon the Lenders shall promptly deliver to the Company (through the Administrative Agent) the Notes, if any, of such former Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delivery of a Termination Letter with respect to any Borrower shall not terminate (i) any obligation of such Borrower that remains unpaid at the time of such delivery (including without limitation any obligation arising thereafter in respect of such Borrower under Section 2.12 or 3.05) or (ii) the obligations of the Company under Article X with respect to any such unpaid obligations.

SECTION 2.17 Evidence of Debt. The Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans and other obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender to a Borrower made through the Administrative Agent, such Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Revolving Loan Note and/or a Competitive Bid Loan Note, as applicable, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans to such Borrower in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to a Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount, currency and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

ARTICLE III

MAKING THE LOANS AND ISSUING THE LETTERS OF CREDIT

SECTION 3.01 Making the Revolving Loans.

(a) Each Revolving Loan Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than (x) 12:00 noon (New York City time, or, in the case of a Borrowing in an Alternate Currency, London time) on the third (or, in the case of a Borrowing to be denominated in an Alternate Currency other than Dollars, Sterling or Euros, fourth) Business Day prior to the date of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan Borrowing, and (y) 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day of a Base Rate Loan Borrowing, by the Company (on its own behalf and on behalf of any Designated Borrower) to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier/fax, telex, cable or electronic mail. Each notice of a Revolving Loan Borrowing (a “Notice of Revolving Loan Borrowing”) shall be made in writing, or orally and confirmed immediately in writing, by telecopier/fax, telex, cable or electronic mail, in substantially the form of Exhibit B-1 hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Revolving Loan Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) Currency and Type of Revolving Loan comprising such Revolving Loan Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Revolving Loan Borrowing, (iv) in the case of a Revolving Loan Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the Interest Period for each such Revolving Loan, and (v) the name of the Borrower (which shall be the Company or a Designated Borrower). Each Lender shall (A) before 11:00 A.M. Local Time on the date of such Borrowing (in the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan Borrowing) and (B) before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing (in the case of a Base Rate Loan Borrowing), make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account for the relevant Currency in Same Day Funds, such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing; provided that, with respect to Borrowings of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, no Lender having a Termination Date prior to the last day of the initial Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall participate in such Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the relevant Borrower in such manner as the Administrative Agent and the Company may agree; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall first make a portion of such funds equal to the aggregate principal amount of any Swing Loan and Letter of Credit Loans as to which a Borrower has received timely notice made by the Dollar Swing Loan Banks, the Multicurrency Swing Loan Banks or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, and by any other Lender and outstanding on the date of such Revolving Loan Borrowing, plus interest accrued and unpaid thereon to and as of such date, available to the relevant Swing Loan Banks or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, and such other Lenders for repayment of such Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Loans.

(b) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may not select Eurocurrency Rate Loans for any Revolving Loan Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Revolving Loan Borrowing is less than $5,000,000 or the Foreign Currency Equivalent thereof.

(c) Subject to Sections 2.09(c) and 3.06, each Notice of Revolving Loan Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Company and the relevant Borrower. In the

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

case of any Revolving Loan Borrowing by a Borrower which the related Notice of Revolving Loan Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, such Borrower shall indemnify each relevant Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Revolving Loan Borrowing for such Revolving Loan Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Revolving Loan to be made by such Lender as part of such Revolving Loan Borrowing when such Revolving Loan, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the time any Revolving Loan Borrowing is required to be made that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Revolving Loan Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Revolving Loan Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 3.01 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the relevant Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to Revolving Loans comprising such Revolving Loan Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate, provided that such Borrower retains its rights against such Lender with respect to any damages it may incur as a result of such Lender’s failure to fund, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall such Borrower be liable to such Lender or any other Person for the interest payable by such Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this sentence. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan as part of such Revolving Loan Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

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

(f) Each Lender at its option may make any Eurocurrency Rate Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Eurocurrency Rate Loan (and in the case of an Affiliate, the provisions of Sections 2.09(c), 2.12, 3.09 and 9.04(c) shall apply to such Affiliate to the same extent as to such Lender); provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Company or the relevant Designated Borrower to repay such Eurocurrency Rate Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

SECTION 3.02 Making the Competitive Bid Loans.

(a) The Company (on its own behalf and on behalf of any Designated Borrower) may request a Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing under this Section 3.02 by delivering to the Administrative Agent a notice (made in writing, or orally and confirmed immediately in writing, by telecopier/fax, telex, cable or electronic mail) of a Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing (a “Notice of Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing”), in substantially the form of Exhibit B-2 hereto, specifying the date (which shall be a Business Day) and aggregate amount of the proposed Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing, the Currency thereof, the maturity date for repayment of each Competitive Bid Loan to be made as part of such Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing (which maturity date may not be later than 180 days or six months, as applicable, after the date of such Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing (or, if earlier, the Final Termination Date)), the interest payment date or dates relating thereto, the name of the Borrower (which shall be the Company or a Designated Borrower), and any other terms to be applicable to such Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing, not later than (i) 10:00 A.M. New York (or, in the case of a Borrowing in an Alternate Currency, London) time at least one Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing, if the Company shall specify in the Notice of Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing that the rates of interest to be offered by the Lenders shall be fixed rates per annum and (ii) 12:00 noon New York (or, in the case of a Borrowing in an Alternate Currency, London) time at least four Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing, if the Company shall instead specify in the Notice of Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing a floating rate basis to be used by the Lenders in determining the rates of interest to be offered by them. The Administrative Agent shall in turn promptly notify each Lender of each request for a Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing received by it from the Company by sending such Lender a copy of the related Notice of Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing.

(b) Each Lender may, if, in its sole discretion, it elects to do so, irrevocably offer to make one or more Competitive Bid Loans to a Borrower as part of such proposed Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing at a rate or rates of interest specified by such Lender in its sole discretion, by notifying the Administrative Agent (which shall give prompt notice thereof to the Company), before 10:00 A.M.

New York (or, in the case of a Borrowing in an Alternate Currency, London) time on the date on which notice of such election is to be given to the Administrative Agent by the other Lenders. If any Lender shall elect not to make such an offer, such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, before 10:00 A.M. New York (or, in the case of a Borrowing in an Alternate Currency, London) time on the date on which notice of such election is to be given to

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

the Administrative Agent by the other Lenders, and such Lender shall not be obligated to, and shall not, make any Competitive Bid Loan as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing; provided that the failure by any Lender to give such notice shall not cause such Lender to be obligated to make any Competitive Bid Loan as part of such proposed Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing.

(c) The Company shall, in turn, (i) before 11:30 A.M. New York (or, in the case of a Borrowing in an Alternate Currency, London) time on the date of such proposed Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing, in the case of a Notice of Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing delivered pursuant to clause (i) of paragraph (a) above and (ii) before 1:00 P.M. New York (or, in the case of a Borrowing in an Alternate Currency, London) time three Business Days before the date of such proposed Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing, in the case of a Notice of Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing delivered pursuant to clause (ii) of paragraph (b) above, either:

(A) cancel such Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent notice to that effect, or

(B) accept one or more of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to paragraph (b) above, in its sole discretion, by giving notice to the Administrative Agent of the amount of each Competitive Bid Loan (which amount shall be equal to or greater than the minimum amount, and equal to or less than the maximum amount, notified to the Company by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Lender for such Competitive Bid Loan pursuant to paragraph (b) above) to be made by each Lender as part of such Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing, and reject any remaining offers made by Lenders pursuant to paragraph (b) above by giving the Administrative Agent notice to that effect.

(d) If the Company notifies the Administrative Agent that such Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing is canceled pursuant to paragraph (c)(A) above, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders and such Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing shall not be made.

(e) If the Company accepts one or more of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to paragraph (c)(B) above, the Administrative Agent shall in turn promptly notify (i) each Lender that has made an offer as described in paragraph (b) above, of the date and aggregate amount of such Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing and whether or not any offer or offers made by such Lender pursuant to paragraph (b) above have been accepted by the Company, (ii) each Lender that is to make a Competitive Bid Loan as part of such Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing, of the amount of each Competitive Bid Loan to be made by such Lender as part of such Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing, and (iii) each Lender that is to make a Competitive Bid Loan as part of such Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing, upon receipt, that the Administrative Agent has received forms of documents appearing to fulfill the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV. Each Lender that is to make a Competitive Bid Loan as part of such Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing shall, before 1:00 P.M. New York (or, in the case of a Borrowing in an Alternate Currency, London) time on the date of such Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing specified in the notice received from the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence or any later time when such Lender shall have received notice from

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV and after receipt by the Administrative Agent of such funds, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the relevant Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s aforesaid address. Promptly after each Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing the Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the amount of the Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing, the consequent Competitive Bid Loan Outstandings and the dates upon which such Competitive Bid Loan Outstandings commenced and will terminate.

(f) Following the making of each Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing, the Company shall be in compliance with the limitation set forth in the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.02(a).

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.02 or in the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.02, no Lender whose Termination Date occurs prior to the maturity date for any Competitive Bid Loan requested in a Notice of Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing shall be entitled to receive or to make a quote pursuant to such Notice of Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing or otherwise to participate in such Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing.

(h) Upon the occurrence of each Competitive Bid Loan made as part of any Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing, the available Commitment of each Lender (whether or not such Lender made such Competitive Bid Loan as part of such Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing) shall be reduced and deemed used for all purposes by an amount equal to its pro rata share (determined based on the aggregate Commitments of all Lenders having Termination Dates on or after the scheduled maturity of such Competitive Bid Loan) of the aggregate Dollar amount (or Dollar Equivalent, as the case may be) of such Competitive Bid Loan, it being understood that the making by any Lender of a Competitive Bid Loan as part of any Competitive Bid Loan Borrowing shall not affect such Lender’s several obligation to make Loans in connection with future requests therefor by a Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof.

SECTION 3.03 Making the Swing Loans, Etc.

(a) Each Swing Loan Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be made on oral notice, given not later than 2:00 P.M.

Each Lender’s obligation to make such payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Loan Banks under this paragraph (c), and the Swing Loan Banks’ right to receive the same, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, the failure of any other Lender to make its payment under this paragraph (c), the financial condition of the Company (or any other Person), the existence of any Default, the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Article IV to be satisfied, or the termination of the Commitments. Each such payment to a Swing Loan Bank shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender agrees to purchase its pro rata share of such outstanding Swing Loans as described above on (i) the Business Day on which demand therefor is made by such Swing Loan Banks, provided that notice of such demand is

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on such Business Day or (ii) the first Business Day next succeeding such demand if notice of such demand is given after such time. Upon any such assignment by such Swing Loan Banks to any other Lender of a portion of such Swing Loan Banks’ Swing Loans, each Swing Loan Bank making such assignment represents and warrants to such other Lender that such Swing Loan Bank is the legal and beneficial owner of such interest being assigned by it, but makes no other representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to such Swing Loan, the Loan Documents or any party thereto. If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have so made the amount of such Swing Loan available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Swing Loan Banks forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of demand by such Swing Loan Banks until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount for the account of such Swing Loan Banks, such amount so paid in respect of principal shall constitute a Swing Loan by such Lender for purposes of this Agreement, and the outstanding principal amount of the Swing Loans made by such Swing Loan Banks shall be reduced by such amount pro rata.

(i) Each Letter of Credit issued after the date hereof shall be issued upon notice, given not later than 11:00 A.M.

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the relevant Issuing Bank a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to its pro rata share thereof. In the event and to the extent that the provisions of any Letter of Credit Agreement shall conflict with this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern.

(iii) Each Issuing Bank shall furnish (A) to the Administrative Agent and the Company on the first Business Day of each month a written report summarizing the issuance and expiration dates of Letters of Credit issued during the preceding month and drawings during such month under all Letters of Credit and, with respect to Letters of Credit issued in an Alternate Currency, any revaluations thereof and (B) to the Administrative Agent and the Company on the first Business Day of each fiscal quarter a written report setting forth the average daily aggregate Available Amount during the preceding fiscal quarter of all Letters of Credit, including the Currency of each thereof.

(b) Drawing and Reimbursement.

(i) The payment by any Issuing Bank of a draft drawn under any Letter of Credit shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement the making by such Issuing Bank of a Letter of Credit Loan.

(ii) Upon written demand by the Issuing Bank who issued such Letter of Credit, with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent, each other Lender shall purchase from such Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank shall sell and assign to each such other Lender, such other Lender’s pro rata share of such outstanding Letter of Credit Loan as of the date of such purchase, by making available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank, by deposit to the Administrative Agent’s Account, in Same Day Funds, an amount equal to the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Letter of Credit Loan to be purchased by such Lender (or, in the case of a Letter of Credit Loan denominated in an Alternate Currency, the Dollar Equivalent thereof on such date). The Company (for itself and on behalf of each other account party) hereby agrees to each such sale and assignment.

(iii) Each Lender’s obligations to make such payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Issuing Bank under this paragraph (b), and each Issuing Bank’s right to receive the same, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, the failure of any other Lender to make its payment under this paragraph (b), the financial condition of the Company (or any other account party), the existence of any Default, the failure of any of the conditions set forth in

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

Article IV to be satisfied, or the termination of the Commitments; provided, that no Lender shall be obligated to make such payments in respect of any Letter of Credit after such Lender’s scheduled Termination Date.

(iv) Each Lender agrees to purchase its pro rata share of an outstanding Letter of Credit Loan on (i) the Business Day on which demand therefor is made by an Issuing Bank, provided notice of such demand is given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on such Business Day or (ii) the first Business Day next succeeding such demand if notice of such demand is given after such time.

(v) Upon any such assignment by an Issuing Bank to any other Lender of a portion of a Letter of Credit Loan, such Issuing Bank represents and warrants to such other Lender that such Issuing Bank is the legal and beneficial owner of such interest being assigned by it, but makes no other representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to such Letter of Credit Loan, the Loan Documents or any party hereto.

(vi) If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have so made the amount of such Loan available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of demand by an Issuing Bank until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

(vii) If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount for the account of an Issuing Bank on any Business Day, such amount so paid in respect of principal shall constitute a Letter of Credit Loan made by such Lender on such Business Day for purposes of this Agreement, and the outstanding principal amount of the Letter of Credit Loan made by such Issuing Bank shall be reduced by such amount on such Business Day.

(c) Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement, any Letter of Credit Agreement and any other agreement or instrument relating to any Letter of Credit (and the obligations of each Lender to purchase portions of Letter of Credit Loans pursuant to paragraph (b) above) shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Letter of Credit Agreement and such other agreement or instrument under all circumstances, including, without limitation, the following circumstances (it being understood that any such payment by the Company is without prejudice to, and does not constitute a waiver of, any rights the Company might have or might acquire as a result of the payment by an Issuing Bank or any Lender of any draft or the reimbursement by the Company thereof):

SECTION 3.06 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender or Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, shall notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law, rule or regulation or treaty makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make or participate in Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Swing Loans, as the case may be, or to fund, participate in or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Swing Loans hereunder, as the case may be, then, subject to the provisions of Section 3.08, (i) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender or Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, making, funding, participating in or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Multicurrency Swing Loans, the obligation of such Lender to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans hereunder and participate in Multicurrency Swing Loans or the obligations of such Swing Loan Bank to make Multicurrency Swing Loans hereunder, as the case may be, shall be suspended until the first date on which the circumstances causing such suspension cease to exist and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender or Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender or Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender or Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Administrative Agent and the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Company shall, upon demand from such Lender or Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay, or cause to be prepaid all Eurocurrency Rate Loans of such Lender or all Multicurrency Swing Loans of such Swing Loan Bank, or, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, convert all Eurocurrency Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender or Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Swing Loan, as applicable, to such day, or immediately, if such Lender or Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Swing Loans, as applicable, (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender or Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender or Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender or Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, that it is no longer illegal for such Lender or Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate and (z) such Lender or such Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, shall be an “Affected Person”, and the Company shall have the right set forth in Section 3.08 to replace such Affected Person. In the event of such a suspension, such Lender or such Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, shall review the circumstances giving rise to such suspension at least weekly

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

and shall notify the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Loan Banks and the Lenders promptly of the end of such suspension, and thereafter the Company shall be entitled to borrow Eurocurrency Rate Loans from such Lender or to borrow Multicurrency Swing Loans from such Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be.

SECTION 3.07 Reasonable Efforts to Mitigate. Each Lender and each Swing Loan Bank shall use its reasonable best efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to minimize any amounts payable by the Company under Section 3.05 and to minimize any period of illegality described in Section 3.06. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender and each Swing Loan Bank agrees that, to the extent reasonably possible to such Lender or such Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, it will change its Eurocurrency Lending Office if such change would eliminate or reduce amounts payable to it under Section 3.05 or eliminate any illegality of the type described in Section 3.06, as the case may be. Each Lender and each Swing Loan Bank further agrees to notify the Company promptly, but in any event within five Business Days, after such Lender or such Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, learns of the circumstances giving rise to such a right to payment or such illegality have changed such that such right to payment or such illegality, as the case may be, no longer exists.

SECTION 3.08 Right to Replace Affected Person or Lender.

(a) Replacement by the Company. In the event (x) the Company is required to pay any Taxes with respect to an Affected Person pursuant to Section 2.12(c) or any amounts with respect to an Affected Person pursuant to Section 3.05, or receives a notice from an Affected Person pursuant to Section 3.06, or is required to make a payment to any Lender (which Lender shall be deemed to be an “Affected Person” for purposes of this Section 3.08(a)) under Section 9.15 or (y) if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Company may elect (i) if, in the case of clause (x), such amounts continue to be charged or such notice is still effective, to replace such Affected Person as a party to this Agreement or (ii) to replace such Defaulting Lender as a party to this Agreement, provided that, concurrently therewith, (i) another financial institution which is an Eligible Assignee and is reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Administrative Agent (or if the Lender then serving as Administrative Agent is the Person to be replaced and the Administrative Agent has resigned its position, the Lender becoming the successor Administrative Agent) and satisfactory to the Issuing Banks, shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash and at par the Loans of such Affected Person or Defaulting Lender, as applicable, pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance and to become a Lender or a Swing Loan Bank, as the case may be, for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations (including all outstanding Loans) of such Affected Person or Defaulting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of Section 9.07 applicable to assignments (other than clause (a)(iv) thereof), and (ii) the Company shall pay to such Affected Person or Defaulting Lender, as applicable, in Same Day Funds on the day of such replacement all interest, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Affected Person or Defaulted Lender, as applicable, by the Company hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due such Affected Person under Section 2.12, costs incurred under Section 3.05 or Section 9.15 and payments owing under Section 9.04(c). A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

(b) Replacement by the Issuing Banks. In the event that S&P and ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ shall, after the date that any Person becomes a Lender, downgrade the long-term certificate of deposit ratings of such Lender, and the resulting ratings shall be below BBB- and Baa3, respectively, or the equivalent, then the Issuing Banks shall in consultation with the Company have the right, but not the obligation, at their own expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to replace such Lender with an Eligible Assignee, and such Lender hereby agrees to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.07 (other than clause (a)(iv) thereof)) all the interests, rights and obligations in respect of its Commitment to an Eligible Assignee; provided, however, that (x) no such assignment shall conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any governmental authority and (y) the Issuing Banks or such Eligible Assignee, as the case may be, shall pay to such Lender in Same Day Funds on the date of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans made by such Lender hereunder and all other amounts accrued for such Lender’s account or owed to it hereunder. Upon any such termination or assignment, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be obligated under Section 8.05 (with respect to actions taken or omitted by an Agent prior to such termination or assignment or claims, damages, losses, liabilities or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever incurred or otherwise arising prior to such termination or assignment which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against an Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement) and be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.04, as well as to any fees and other amounts accrued for its account under Sections 2.05, 2.12 or 3.05 and not yet paid.

SECTION 3.09 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans shall be available (and each Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) for general corporate purposes (including, without limitation, capital expenditures, commercial paper backup and to finance acquisitions and share repurchases) of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided that neither any Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall have any responsibility for the use of any of the proceeds of Loans; provided further that the proceeds of a Swing Loan shall not be used to repay another Swing Loan.

SECTION 3.10 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 9.01.

(ii) [Intentionally omitted].

(iii) Certain Fees. That Defaulting Lender shall (x) not be entitled to receive any facility fee pursuant to Section 2.05(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Company shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive such fees as are provided in Section 2.05(b).

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

(iv) Reallocation to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit, Letter of Credit Loans or Swing Loans pursuant to Sections 3.03 and 3.04, the pro rata share of each non-Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letters of Credit, Letter of Credit Loans or Swing Loans shall be computed without giving effect to the applicable Commitment(s) of that Defaulting Lender; provided, that, (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit, Letter of Credit Loans and Swing Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the portion of the Total Outstanding attributable to that Lender.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Loan Banks and the Issuing Banks agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit, Letter of Credit Loans and Swing Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders (without giving effect to Section 3.10(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Company while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 3.11 Cash Collateral.

(a) Certain Credit Support Events. If, as of the Termination Date, any Letter of Credit Outstandings or Swing Loan Outstandings remain outstanding for any reason, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swing Loan Banks, the Company shall immediately Cash Collateralize the then Letter of Credit Outstandings in an amount equal to 103% of (i) the Available Amount of each Letter of Credit then outstanding in the Currency of such Letter of Credit and (ii) the outstanding principal amount of each Letter of Credit Loan in the Currency of such Loan and the then Swing Loan Outstandings in an aggregate amount equal to 103% of the outstanding principal amount of each Swing Loan in the Currency of such Swing Loan. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent or an Issuing Bank, if such Issuing Bank has made a Letter of Credit Loan, the Company shall immediately Cash Collateralize such Letter of Credit Loan in an amount equal to 103% of the outstanding principal amount of such Letter of Credit Loan in the Currency of such Loan. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, immediately upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swing Loan Banks, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 3.10(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender).

(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America. The Company, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders (including the Swing Loan Banks), and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in such Cash Collateral, including all cash, deposit accounts and balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 3.11(c). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the Company or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 3.11 in respect of Letters of Credit or Swing Loans shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific Letter of Credit Outstanding, Swing Loans, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(d) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 9.07)) or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of the Company shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section 3.11 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 7.02), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Issuing Bank or Swing Loan Bank, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

SECTION 7.02 Actions in Respect of the Letters of Credit Upon Event of Default; L/C Cash Collateral Account; Investing of Amounts in the L/C Cash Collateral Account; Release.

(a) Upon (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (ii) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 7.01 to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Loans due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.01, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, irrespective of whether it is taking any of the actions described in Section 7.01 or otherwise, make demand upon the Company to, and forthwith upon such demand the Company will, pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders in Same Day Funds at the Administrative Agent’s office designated in such demand, for deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account, an amount equal to 103% of (x) the Available Amount of each Letter of Credit then outstanding in the Currency of such Letter of Credit and (y) the outstanding principal amount of each Letter of Credit Loan in the Currency of such Loan. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that any funds held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account are subject to any equal or prior right or claim of any Person other than any Agent and the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit, the Company will, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account, an amount equal to the excess of (1) such aggregate Available Amount over (2) the total amount of funds, if any, then held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account that the Administrative Agent determines to be free and clear of any such equal or prior right and claim.

(b) The Company hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to open at any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default a non-interest bearing account with the Administrative Agent at its address designated in Section 9.02 in the name of the Company but in connection with which the Administrative Agent shall be the sole entitlement holder or customer (the “L/C Cash Collateral Account”), and hereby pledges and assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders a security interest in the following collateral (the “L/C Cash Collateral Account Collateral”):

(i) the L/C Cash Collateral Account, all funds held therein and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time representing or evidencing the investment of funds held therein,

(ii) all L/C Cash Collateral Account Investments from time to time, and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time representing or evidencing the L/C Cash Collateral Account Investments,

(iii) all notes, certificates of deposit, deposit accounts, checks and other instruments from time to time delivered to or otherwise possessed by the

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

Administrative Agent for or on behalf of the Company in substitution for or in addition to any or all of the then existing L/C Cash Collateral Account Collateral,

(iv) all interest, dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the then existing L/C Cash Collateral Account Collateral, and

(v) all proceeds of any and all of the foregoing L/C Cash Collateral Account Collateral.

(c) If requested by the Company, the Administrative Agent will, subject to the provisions of clause (e) below, from time to time (i) invest amounts on deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account in such notes, certificates of deposit and other debt instruments as the Company may select and the Administrative Agent may approve and (ii) invest interest paid on the notes, certificates of deposit and other instruments referred to in clause (i) above, and reinvest other proceeds of any such notes, certificates of deposit and other instruments which may mature or be sold, in each case in such notes, certificates of deposit and other debt instruments as the Company may select and the Administrative Agent may approve (the notes, certificates of deposit and other instruments referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above being collectively “L/C Cash Collateral Account Investments”). Interest and proceeds that are not invested or reinvested in L/C Cash Collateral Account Investments as provided above shall be deposited and held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account.

(d) Upon such time as (i) the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit is reduced to zero and such Letters of Credit are expired or terminated by their terms and all amounts payable in respect thereof, including but not limited to principal, interest, commissions, fees and expenses, have been paid in full in cash, and (ii) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent will pay and release to the Company or at its order (a) accrued interest due and payable on the L/C Cash Collateral Account Investments and in the L/C Cash Collateral Account, and (b) the balance remaining in the L/C Cash Collateral Account after the application, if any, by the Administrative Agent of funds in the L/C Cash Collateral Account to the payment of amounts described in clause (i) of this subsection (d).

(e) (i) The Administrative Agent may, without notice to the Company except as required by law and at any time or from time to time, charge, set-off and otherwise apply all or any part of the L/C Cash Collateral Account against the obligations of the Company in respect of Letters of Credit (collectively, the “L/C Cash Collateral Account Obligations”) or any part thereof. The Administrative Agent agrees to notify the Company promptly after any such set-off and application, provided that the failure of the Administrative Agent to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

(ii) The Administrative Agent may also exercise in respect of the L/C Cash Collateral Account Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York at that time (the “UCC”) (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected L/C Cash Collateral Account Collateral), and may also, without notice except as specified below, sell the L/C Cash Collateral Account Collateral or any part thereof in one or

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable. Each Borrower agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days’ notice to such Borrower of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of L/C Cash Collateral Account Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

(iii) Any cash held by the Administrative Agent as L/C Cash Collateral Account Collateral and all cash proceeds received by the Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the L/C Cash Collateral Account Collateral may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for, and/or then or at any time thereafter be applied in whole or in part by the Administrative Agent against, all or any part of the L/C Cash Collateral Account Obligations in such order as the Administrative Agent shall elect. Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by the Administrative Agent and remaining after payment in full of all the L/C Cash Collateral Account Obligations shall be paid over to the Company or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

(f) Upon the permanent reduction from time to time of the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit in accordance with the terms thereof, the Administrative Agent shall release to the Company amounts from the L/C Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal to each such permanent reduction; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to reduce the funds or other L/C Cash Collateral Account Collateral then held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account below that level that the Administrative Agent reasonably determines is required to be maintained after taking into consideration any rights or claims of any Persons other than the Administrative Agent.

(g) In furtherance of the grant of the pledge and security interest pursuant to this Section 7.02, the Company hereby agrees with each Lender, each Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent that the Company shall give, execute, deliver, file and/or record any financing statement, notice, instrument, document, agreement or other papers that may be necessary or desirable (in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent) to create, preserve, perfect or validate the security interest granted pursuant hereto or to enable the Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights hereunder with respect to such pledge and security interests.

Each party hereto agrees that the Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders, the Swing Loan Banks and the Issuing Banks by posting the Communications on IntraLinks or another similar website, if any, to which each Lender and the Administrative Agent have access (the “Platform”). Nothing in this Section 9.02 shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent to make the Communications available to the Lenders, the Swing Loan Banks and the Issuing Banks in any other manner specified in this Agreement.

(iii) E-mail Notification to Lenders. Each Lender, each Swing Loan Bank and each Issuing Bank agrees that e-mail notice to it (at the address provided pursuant to the next sentence and deemed delivered as provided in the next paragraph) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of such Communications to such Lender for purposes of this Agreement. Each Lender, each Swing Loan Bank and each Issuing Bank agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record an effective e-mail address for such Lender, such Swing Loan Bank or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission, and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Bank to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Bank. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Bank). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof.

The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and each Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender.

The Administrative Agent shall provide the Company with a copy of the Register upon request.

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

(e) (i) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee representing that it is an Eligible Assignee, together with any Revolving Loan Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit C-1 hereto, (1) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (2) record the information contained therein in the Register and (3) give prompt notice thereof to the Company. Within five Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the relevant Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in exchange for any surrendered Revolving Loan Note or Notes a new Revolving Loan Note to the order of such Eligible Assignee in an amount equal to the Commitments assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and a new Revolving Loan Note to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Commitments retained by it hereunder.

100

any fees or other amounts payable to the Lenders hereunder, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder. Each Lender shall provide the Company with a list of entities party to all Participation Agreements with such Lender upon request.

(g) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information, including Confidential Information, relating to the Borrowers furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers; provided that, prior to any such disclosure of Confidential Information, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall be informed of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and shall agree to (i) preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information relating to the Borrowers received by it from such Lender and (ii) be bound by the provisions of Section 9.11.

(h) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Section 9.07, no Lender may assign its interest to an Eligible Assignee if, as of the effective date of such assignment, such assignment would increase the amount of Taxes, Other Taxes or increased costs payable under Sections 2.12 or 3.05, respectively.

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time and without the consent of the Administrative Agent or any Borrower create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Loans owing to it and any Notes held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or in favor of another central bank.

(j) No Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender.

SECTION 9.08 No Liability of the Issuing Banks. Each Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. Neither any Issuing Bank nor any of their respective officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the use that may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by any Issuing Bank against presentation of documents that do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to the Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit, except that each Borrower shall have a claim against an Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank shall be liable to such Borrower, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by such Borrower that were caused by (i) such Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence in determining whether documents presented under any Letter of Credit comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit or (ii) such Issuing Bank’s willful failure to make lawful payment under a Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a draft and certificates strictly complying with the terms and conditions of

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

101

the Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each Issuing Bank acting in good faith 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.

SECTION 9.09 Governing Law. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.

SECTION 9.10 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telecopier/fax or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.11 Confidentiality. (a) None of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender shall disclose any Confidential Information to any Person without the consent of the Company, other than (i) to such Person’s Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, auditors and advisors of such Person or such Person’s Affiliates, (ii) to a proposed assignee, a proposed participant or a proposed counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap, securitization, or derivative transaction referencing or involving any of its rights or obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, or to any credit insurance provider relating to the Borrower and its obligations; provided that prior to any such disclosure, the proposed assignee, participant or counterparty (or its advisors), or credit insurance provider, as applicable, shall deliver to the Company a written agreement to preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information to the extent required by this Agreement, and then only on a confidential basis, (iii) as required by any law, rule or regulation or judicial process, (iv) in connection with any litigation to which any Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent is a party or in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document (provided that, in the case of this clause (iv), such Lender, such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, uses reasonable efforts under the circumstances to obtain reasonable assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded to such information in connection with such litigation or exercise) and (v) as requested or required by any state, federal or foreign authority or examiner regulating banks or banking or any aspects of any Lender’s, any Issuing Bank’s or any of their respective Affiliates’ activities.

(b) Each of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender acknowledges that (i) it may receive Confidential Information pursuant to this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents, (ii) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of such Confidential Information and (iii) it will handle such Confidential Information in accordance with applicable law, including United States Federal and state securities laws.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, no Borrower shall have any obligation under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to furnish any information other than Confidential Information.

SECTION 9.12 Jurisdiction, Etc.

(a) Each of the parties hereto (and each Designated Borrower, by its acceptance of the proceeds of Loans made to it) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

102

and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto and each Designated Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the parties hereto and each Designated Borrower agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(b) Each of the parties hereto and each Designated Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto and each Designated Borrower hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

SECTION 9.13 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, EACH ISSUING BANK AND EACH OF THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE LOANS, THE LETTERS OF CREDIT OR THE ACTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY ISSUING BANK OR ANY LENDER IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.

SECTION 9.14 Judgment Currency. This is an international loan transaction in which the specification of Dollars or an Alternate Currency, as the case may be (the “Specified Currency”), any payment in New York City or the country of the Specified Currency, as the case may be (the “Specified Place”), is of the essence, and the Specified Currency shall be the currency of account in all events relating to Loans denominated in the Specified Currency. The payment obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be discharged by an amount paid in another currency or in another place, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, to the extent that the amount so paid on conversion to the Specified Currency and transfer to the Specified Place under normal banking procedures does not yield the amount of the Specified Currency at the Specified Place due hereunder. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in the Specified Currency into another currency (the “Second Currency”), the rate of exchange which shall be applied shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the Specified Currency with the Second Currency on the Business Day next preceding that on which such judgment is rendered. The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (an “Entitled Person”) shall, notwithstanding the rate of exchange actually applied in rendering such judgment, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Entitled Person of any sum adjudged to be due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents in the Second Currency such Entitled Person may in accordance with normal

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

103

banking procedures purchase and transfer to the Specified Place the Specified Currency with the amount of the Second Currency so adjudged to be due; and each Borrower hereby, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, agrees to indemnify such Entitled Person against, and to pay such Entitled Person on demand in the Specified Currency, any difference between the sum originally due to such Entitled Person in the Specified Currency and the amount of the Specified Currency so purchased and transferred.

SECTION 9.15 European Monetary Union.

(a) Payments by the Administrative Agent Generally. With respect to the payment of any amount denominated in Euros, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any of the Borrowers, any of the Multicurrency Swing Loan Banks or any of the Lenders in any way whatsoever for any delay, or the consequences of any delay, in the crediting to any account of any amount required by this Agreement to be paid by the Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent shall have taken all relevant steps to achieve, on the date required by this Agreement, the payment of such amount in immediately available, freely transferable, cleared funds (in Euros) to the account of any Borrower, any Swing Loan Bank or any Lender in the Principal Financial Center in the Participating Member State which such Borrower, such Swing Loan Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, shall have specified for such purpose. For the purposes of this paragraph, “all relevant steps” means all such steps as may be prescribed from time to time by the regulations or operating procedures of such clearing or settlement system as the Administrative Agent may from time to time determine for the purpose of clearing or settling payments in Euros.

(b) Other Consequential Changes. Without prejudice to the respective liabilities of the Borrowers to the Lenders and the Multicurrency Swing Loan Banks and the Lenders and the Multicurrency Swing Loan Banks to the Borrowers under or pursuant to this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Section, each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably specify to be necessary or appropriate to reflect the introduction of or changeover to Euros in Participating Member States.

SECTION 9.16 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the names and addresses of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrowers in accordance with said Act. Each Borrower shall, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Act.

SECTION 9.17 Original Notes. On the Effective Date, the Original Note, if any, held by each Lender shall be deemed to be cancelled and, if such Lender has requested a Revolving Note hereunder, amended and restated by the Revolving Loan Note delivered hereunder on or about the Effective Date (regardless of whether any Lender shall have delivered to the Company for cancellation the Original Note held by it). Each Lender, whether or not

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

104

requesting a Revolving Loan Note hereunder, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the Original Note held by it to the Company for cancellation and/or amendment and restatement. All amounts owing under, and evidenced by, the Original Notes as of the Effective Date shall continue to be outstanding hereunder, and shall from and after the Effective Date, if requested by the Lender holding such Original Note, be evidenced by the Revolving Loan Notes, and shall in any event be evidenced by, and governed by the terms of, this Agreement. Each Lender hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, actions or claims that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Company arising out of such Lender’s failure to deliver the Original Note held by it to the Company for cancellation, subject to the condition that the Company shall not make any payment to any Person claiming to be the holder of such Original Note unless such Lender is first notified of such claim and is given the opportunity, at such Lender’s sole cost and expense, to assert any defenses to such payment.

SECTION 9.18 Survival. To the extent the Existing Credit Agreement provides that certain terms survive the termination of the Existing Credit Agreement or survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable thereunder, then such terms shall survive the amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement.

SECTION 9.19 Amendment and Restatement. As of the Effective Date, the Commitments of certain Lenders under (and as defined in) the Existing Credit Agreement shall be terminated by the Company (such Lenders, the “Departing Lenders”). The remaining Lenders under (and as defined in) the Existing Credit Agreement shall be Banks under this Agreement with Commitments as set forth on the signature pages hereof. By its execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Bank that was a Lender under (and as defined in) the Existing Credit Agreement hereby consents to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and to the non-pro rata reduction of Commitments (under and as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) occurring on the Effective Date as a result of the termination of the Commitments of the Departing Lenders, and the concurrent repayment in full of all loans and other obligations owing (whether or not due) to the Departing Lenders. On the Effective Date, effective immediately following such termination and repayment, the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended, restated and superseded in its entirety by this Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (a) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, whether executed and delivered in connection herewith or otherwise, do not constitute a novation, payment and reborrowing, or termination of the obligations of the Company and the other Borrowers under the Existing Credit Agreement as in effect prior to the Effective Date (except with respect to the Departing Lenders, except that the provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement that by their express terms survive the termination of the Existing Credit Agreement shall continue for the Departing Lenders) and (b) such obligations are in all respects continuing (as amended and restated hereby) with only the terms thereof being modified as provided in this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, after giving effect to the Departing Lender Commitment terminations and repayments, (i) all “Loans” outstanding under (and as defined in) the Existing Credit Agreement shall on the Effective Date become Loans hereunder, (ii) all “Letters of Credit” under (and as defined in) the Existing Credit Agreement shall on the Effective Date become Letters of Credit hereunder and (iii) all other obligations outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement shall on the Effective Date be obligations under this Agreement.

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

105

SECTION 9.20 Electronic Execution of Assignments and Other Documents. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Acceptance or in any amendment or other modification hereof (including waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

SECTION 9.21 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.21, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Bank or a Swing Loan Bank, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

SECTION 9.22 No Advisory or Fiduciary Duty. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each of the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrowers and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and each Agent, Lender and their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, (B) each of the Borrowers has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, (C) each of the Borrowers is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents and (D) each Agent, Lender and their respective Affiliates may have economic interest that conflict with those of the Borrowers, their stockholders and/or their Affiliates; (ii) (A) the Administrative Agent and each Lender each is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for any Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any obligation to any Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and their respective Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to any Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Borrowers hereby waives and releases any claims that it

106

may have against the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We refer to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of July 18, 2013 (said agreement, as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, being the “Credit Agreement”) among Marriott International, Inc., Bank of America, N.A., in its capacity as Administrative Agent, and certain Lenders parties thereto, a copy of which has been furnished to you, pursuant to which we will, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, make Loans from time to time in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding $ (or the equivalent in an Alternate Currency). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement, except that as used herein, the term “Loans” shall refer to Loans* made from time to time by us to Borrowers pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

Interest (as defined in Section 1(b) below) of the aggregate principal amount of such Loans in [Currency] and in same day funds [plus accrued interest and fees to the Effective Date]. We will, promptly upon our receipt of this purchase price from you, send you a participation certificate, in substantially the form of Exhibit A, confirming and evidencing your Participation in the Loan(s) outstanding on the date hereof.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, “Purchased Interest” means at any time a fraction, expressed as a percentage, obtained by dividing (i) the Participation Amount (reduced by payments of principal to which you are entitled pursuant to Section 2(a)(v) and by the amount of such Participation Amount repurchased pursuant to the final sentence of this Section 1(b)) by (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans which are or may in the future be held by us at such time. As of the date hereof, the Purchased Interest is %. You acknowledge that as a result of assignments made by or to us pursuant to Section 9.07 of the Credit Agreement, your Purchased Interest is subject to change from time to time.

C2-2

application (net of any sharing thereof with other lenders required under the Credit Agreement), determined as follows:

(i) in the case of interest on the Base Rate Loans, we will pay over to you your Purchased Interest thereof, calculated for each Base Rate Loan by applying a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate for that Base Rate Loan plus %;

(ii) in the case of interest on the Eurocurrency Rate Loans, we will pay over to you your Purchased Interest thereof, calculated for each Eurocurrency Rate Loan by applying the rate of [ ] [a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Eurocurrency Rate for that Eurocurrency Rate Loan plus %], whether or not that rate is the same as the rate applicable to [the Eurocurrency Rate Loans] [that Eurocurrency Rate Loan under the Credit Agreement], accruing for each Eurocurrency Rate Loan while a Participation in that Loan is held by you;

[(iii) in the case of fees paid to us pursuant to Sections 2.05(a) and (b)(i) of the Credit Agreement, we will pay over to you your Purchased Interest thereof, calculated at , accruing from ; and]

(b) All computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate (other than with respect to Base Rate Loans) will be made on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that (i) with respect to any Loan denominated in Sterling such computations will be made on the basis of a year of 365 days and (ii) with respect to any Loan denominated in an Alternate Currency (other than Sterling and Euro) such computations will be made in accordance with market practice for such Alternate Currency, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable.

Any determination made by us as to the allocation of payments received or amounts applied to your Participation in the Loan(s) shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent and

JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. and ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Bank N.A., as Co-Syndication Agents

under the Credit Agreement referred to below

and

The Lenders from time to time party to the Credit Agreement

Re:

$2,000,000,000 Revolving Credit Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This opinion letter is furnished to you pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(iv) of the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of July 18, 2013 (the “Credit Agreement”) among Marriott International, Inc. (the “Company”), Bank of America, N.A., in its capacity as Administrative Agent, and certain Lenders parties thereto. Except as otherwise indicated herein, capitalized terms used in this opinion letter are defined as set forth in the Credit Agreement.

I am Vice President and Assistant General Counsel of the Company. In that capacity I, together with other attorneys in the Company’s Law Department who have given substantive attention to the representation described in this paragraph (collectively, “we”) have acted as legal counsel of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and as such have acted on their behalf in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company of the Credit Agreement and the Notes (collectively, the “Credit Documents”).

In that connection, we have examined (i) the Credit Documents; (ii) the certificate of incorporation of the Company, as amended through the date hereof, and the by-laws of the Company, as now in effect (collectively, the “Constituent Documents”); and (iii) the documents furnished by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to Section 4.01 of the Credit Agreement. We have also examined originals, or copies certified to our satisfaction, of (i) the agreements, instruments and documents that affect or purport to affect the obligations of the Company under the Credit Documents or the right of the Company to borrow money and the other transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement, and (ii) such other corporate records of the Company, certificates of public officials and of officers of the Company, and agreements, instruments and other documents as we have deemed necessary and appropriate as a basis for the opinions expressed below.

D-1

In our examination of the documents referred to above, we have assumed, as to all parties other than the Company, (i) the genuineness of all signatures, the conformity to the original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies, the authenticity of the documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to the executed copies of all documents submitted to us as execution copies, and (ii) the due authorization, execution and delivery of the documents, pursuant to full power, authority and legal right, and the validity and enforceability of the documents against such parties.

In giving the opinions set forth below, we have also relied upon representations as to matters of fact (but not as to matters of law) made by the Company in Section 5.01 of the Credit Agreement.

We do not purport to express any opinion herein concerning the laws of any jurisdiction other than the District of Columbia, the State of Delaware (but only insofar as set forth in the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware) and the Federal laws of the United States of America.

In connection with our opinions qualified by “known to us”, “to our knowledge” or a similar phrase to qualify a statement in this opinion letter means that those attorneys in the Law Department who have given substantive attention to the representation described in the first introductory paragraph of this opinion letter do not have current actual knowledge that the statement is incorrect. Such terms do not include any knowledge of other attorneys in the Law Department or any constructive or imputed notice of any matters or item or information.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

1. The Company (a) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, (b) is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation in each other jurisdiction in which its ownership or lease of property or the conduct of its business requires it to so qualify or be licensed except where the failure to so qualify or be licensed would not have a Material Adverse Effect and (c) has all requisite corporate power and authority to own or lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted except where the failure to do so would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

2. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Credit Documents, and the borrowings by the Company under the Credit Agreement, are within the corporate powers of the Company and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company, and do not (A) contravene the Constituent Documents, (B) violate the applicable provisions of any law, rule, regulation (including, without limitation, Regulation U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) or any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award that names the Company and is specifically directed to the Company or its property, (C) conflict with or result in the breach of, or constitute a default under, any agreement or instrument pertaining to borrowed money binding on or, to the best of our knowledge,

D-2

affecting the Company, or (D) result in or require the creation or its imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any of the properties of the Company.

3. Except as have been obtained, no authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body or any other third party is required for the due execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Credit Documents, except and to the extent that any failure to obtain such authorization, approval or other action would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

4. Each Credit Document has been duly executed and delivered by the Company.

under the Credit Agreement referred to below

and

The Lenders from time to time party to the Credit Agreement

Re:

Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of July 18, 2013 (the “Credit Agreement”) among Marriott International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Bank, National Association, as co- syndication agents and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of, and the transactions contemplated by, the Credit Agreement. This opinion is delivered to you pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(v) of the Credit Agreement. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.

In connection with the opinions expressed below, we have examined the following documents:

(1)

the Credit Agreement; and

(2)

the Notes listed on Annex I hereto.

The items referred to in clauses (1) and (2) above are referred to herein collectively as the “Credit Documents.

In addition to the Credit Documents, we have examined such other documents and records and questions of law as we deem necessary for the purposes of this opinion. In making the foregoing examinations, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of each person signatory to any of the documents reviewed by us, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies. We have also assumed that, as to factual matters, all

E-1




Bank of America, N. A., as Administrative Agent, et al.	2	, 2013

representations and warranties made in the Credit Documents were and are true, correct and complete.

In rendering the opinions expressed herein with respect to each Person that is a party to any Credit Document, we have assumed that: (i) it has the requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the Credit Documents to which it is a party; (ii) the execution, delivery and performance by it of the Credit Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all requisite action and such Credit Documents have been duly executed and delivered on its behalf by one or more duly authorized officers thereof; (iii) it has been duly organized and is validly existing and is in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization; (iv) the execution, delivery and performance by it of the Credit Documents to which it is a party do not violate (A) any provisions of law, regulation or treaty applicable to it or public policy, in each case in the jurisdiction where it is organized, (B) any provision of its organizational documents or (C) any order, judgment or decree of any court or other governmental authority binding on it; and (v) no approval, authorization or other action by, or filing with, any governmental authority in the jurisdiction of its organization is required for the valid execution, delivery or performance by it of any of the Credit Documents to which it is a party, except for such approvals, authorizations, actions and filings as have been obtained, taken or made, as the case may be. We also have assumed that the Credit Documents are valid and binding obligations of each of the parties thereto other than the Company, enforceable against each such party in accordance with their respective terms.

The laws covered by the opinions expressed herein are limited to the Laws of the State of New York which, in each case, in the exercise of customary professional diligence would reasonably be recognized as applicable directly to the Company (excluding in any event provisions of state law that correspond to Sections 547 and 548 of the federal bankruptcy code, any anti-fraud, antitrust, securities, tax or trade regulation laws and laws relating to the right of any Lender to receive or retain any payment of indebtedness if such payment is found to be voidable under any applicable insolvency or similar statute) (collectively, the “Opining Laws”). For purposes of this opinion letter, the “Law” of a jurisdiction means such jurisdiction’s statutes, the judicial and administrative decisions of such jurisdiction, and the rules and regulations of the governmental agencies of such jurisdiction, but excluding the statutes and ordinances, the administrative decisions, and the rules and regulations of counties, towns, municipalities, and special political subdivisions (whether created or enabled through legislative action at the federal, state or regional level) and judicial decisions to the extent that they deal with any of the foregoing excluded items.

Based upon the foregoing, and upon an examination of such questions of law as we have considered necessary or appropriate, and subject to the assumptions, exceptions, qualifications and limitations set forth herein, it is our opinion that:

1. The execution and delivery by the Company of the Credit Documents and the performance of its obligations thereunder will not contravene, assuming that proceeds of

E-2




Bank of America, N. A., as Administrative Agent, et al.	3	, 2013

borrowings will be used in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, any of the Opining Laws.

2. Each Credit Document constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights (including, without limitation, fraudulent transfer laws) and general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

The foregoing opinions are subject to the qualification that the enforceability of certain rights, remedies, waivers and submissions provided in the Credit Documents may be unavailable or limited by certain laws and judicial decisions. In respect of such qualification, however, we are of the opinion that such laws and judicial decisions do not, subject to the other exceptions and limitations contained in this opinion letter, make the remedies generally afforded by the Credit Documents inadequate to permit enforcement of the indebtedness arising thereunder.

We note that rights, remedies and other provisions of any Credit Documents that permit any Person thereunder to take action or make determinations, or to benefit from indemnities and similar undertakings of the Company, may be subject to a requirement that such action be taken or such determinations be made, and that any action or inaction by such Person which may give rise to a request for payment under such an undertaking be taken or not taken, on a reasonable basis and in good faith.

We have assumed that the Lenders and the Administrative Agent will enforce each Credit Document in compliance with the provisions thereof and all requirements of applicable law.

This opinion and the contents hereof constitute information subject to the confidentiality provisions of the Credit Agreement, and may not be used, circulated, quoted or furnished to any Person except in accordance with said Section. This opinion is being furnished to you solely for the purpose set out above and is not to be relied upon for any other purpose. This opinion may not be relied upon by any other Person for any purpose without our prior written consent.

Very truly yours,

The Designated Borrower hereby agrees that this Designation Letter, the Credit Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York. The Designated Borrower hereby submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and of any New York state court sitting in New York City for the purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Designation Letter, the Credit Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby. The Designated Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Designated Borrower further agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding brought in New York may be made upon it by service upon the Company at the “Address for Notices” specified below its name on the signature pages to the Credit Agreement.

THE DESIGNATED BORROWER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS DESIGNATION LETTER, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY.
