The Credits

SECTION 2.01. Commitments. (a) Term Loans. Each Term Lender, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, severally and not jointly with the other Term Lenders, agrees to make on the Effective Date a single Term Loan to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed such Term Lender’s Term Loan Commitment. Once prepaid or repaid, no Term Loan may be re-borrowed.

(b) Revolving Credit Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Revolving Credit Lender, severally and not jointly with the other Revolving Credit Lenders, agrees to make revolving credit Loans (the “Revolving Credit Loans”) to the Borrower

from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and re-borrow Revolving Credit Loans.

(c) Incremental Credit Extensions. The Borrower may from time to time after the Effective Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent, request one or more additional tranches of term loans (the “Incremental Term Loans”) or one or more increases in the Revolving Credit Commitments (each, a “Revolving Credit Facility Increase”); provided, however, that (i) the aggregate amount of all Incremental Term Loans and Revolving Credit Facility Increases shall not exceed $1,000,000,000, (ii) no Incremental Term Loans shall be requested later than one year prior to the Maturity Date with respect to the Term Loans, (iii) no Revolving Credit Facility Increase shall be requested later than one year prior to the Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, (iv) each Incremental Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility Increase shall be in an amount not less than $25,000,000 and (v) no more than two Incremental Term Loans and Revolving Credit Facility Increases may be requested in the aggregate in any calendar year. The Incremental Term Loans (A) shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the Revolving Credit Loans and the Term Loans, (B) shall not have a final maturity earlier than the Maturity Date with respect to the Term Loans, (C) shall have pricing (including fees, interest and original issue discount) that does not exceed the pricing for the Term Loans, and (D) except for any differences permitted hereby, the Incremental Term Loans shall have the same terms and conditions as the Term Loans. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to obligate the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or any Agent or Lender to negotiate for (whether or not in good faith), solicit, provide or consent to any Incremental Term Loans or any Revolving Credit Facility Increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of each proposed Incremental Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility Increase and of the proposed terms and conditions therefor agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Each such Lender (and each of their Affiliates and Approved Funds) may, in its sole discretion, commit to participate in such Incremental Term Loans and Revolving Credit Facility Increases by forwarding its commitment therefor to the Administrative Agent in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall allocate, in its sole discretion but in amounts not to exceed for each such Lender the commitment received from such Lender, Affiliate or Approved Fund, the Incremental Term Loan commitments or Revolving Credit Facility Increase commitments to be made as part of such Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Credit Facility Increase, respectively, to the Lenders from which it has received such written commitments. If the Administrative Agent does not receive enough commitments from existing Lenders or their Affiliates or Approved Funds, it may, after consultation with the Borrower, allocate to Eligible Assignees any excess of the proposed amount of such Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Credit Facility Increase agreed with the Borrower over the aggregate amounts of the commitments received from existing Lenders or their Affiliates or Approved Funds. Each Incremental Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility Increase shall become effective on a date agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (each, a “Commitment Increase Date”), which shall be in any case on or after the date of satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.03. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders and the Borrower, on or before 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day following a Commitment Increase Date of the effectiveness of an Incremental Term Loan or Revolving Credit Facility Increase, as applicable, and shall record in the Register all applicable additional information in respect of such Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Credit Facility Increase. On the

Commitment Increase Date for any Revolving Credit Facility Increase, each Lender or Eligible Assignee participating in such Revolving Credit Facility Increase shall be deemed to purchase and assume from each existing Lender having Revolving Credit Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans outstanding on such Commitment Increase Date, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the new Revolving Credit Commitments (after giving effect to such Revolving Credit Facility Increase), in the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans, so as to ensure that, on the Commitment Increase Date after giving effect to such Revolving Credit Facility Increase, each Lender is owed only its Applicable Percentage of the Revolving Credit Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans outstanding on such Commitment Increase Date.

(d) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is equal to $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. At the time that each Base Rate Revolving Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is equal to $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; provided that a Base Rate Revolving Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Revolving Credit Commitments, or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an L/C Borrowing as contemplated by Section 2.05(e) or the repayment of a Swingline Loan as contemplated by Section 2.09(a)(iii). Each Swingline Loan shall be in an amount that is equal to $500,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof unless otherwise agreed by each Swingline Lender; provided that a Swingline Loan may be in an aggregate amount that is required to finance the reimbursement of an L/C Borrowing as contemplated by Section 2.05(e).

Unless the Swingline Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Revolving Credit Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Swingline Borrowing (A) directing the Swingline Lender not to make such Swingline Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Article IV is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swingline Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the borrowing date specified in such Swingline Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swingline Loan available to the Borrower at its office by crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of the Swingline Lender in immediately available funds (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an L/C Borrowing as provided in Section 2.05(e), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank).

The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear;

provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Banks, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each L/C Borrowing made by an Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph (d) of this Section 2.05 in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If an Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Borrowing in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Borrowing by paying (or causing its Subsidiary that is also an account party in respect of such Letter of Credit to pay) to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Borrowing not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date that such L/C Borrowing is made, if the Borrower shall have received notice of such L/C Borrowing prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with a Base Rate Revolving Borrowing (only if such L/C Borrowing is not less than $1,000,000), or a Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Base Rate Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the Borrower fails to make such payment or discharge such reimbursement obligation when due or in accordance with the prior sentence, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the applicable L/C Borrowing, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof (the “Unreimbursed Amount”) and such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Credit Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to such Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to such Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Credit Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Credit Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to this paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any L/C Borrowing (other than the funding of Base Rate Revolving Credit Loan or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such L/C Borrowing.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse L/C Borrowings as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.05, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. None of the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Credit Lenders, the Issuing Banks, or any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse such Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of any Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedure and Reporting Requirements. Each Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank. Such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an L/C Borrowing thereunder (and shall make such information available to any Revolving Credit Lender upon reasonable request); provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any such L/C Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.05(e) after receipt of the notice from such Issuing Bank contemplated thereby. On the last Business Day of each month, each Issuing Bank shall submit to the Administrative Agent a report in reasonable

detail setting forth any activity taken with respect to each Letter of Credit that it has issued at the request of the Borrower that was outstanding as of the date of the report last submitted.

(h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Borrowing, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Borrowing in full on the date such L/C Borrowing is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such L/C Borrowing is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such L/C Borrowing, at the rate per annum then applicable to Base Rate Revolving Credit Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such L/C Borrowing when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05, then the amount due shall bear interest at the applicable rate provided in Section 2.12(c). Interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 shall be for the account of such Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Revolving Credit Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement of an Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of any such replacement of such Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(ii). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank being replaced under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Class Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Credit Lenders with L/C Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total L/C Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph (j) of this Section 2.05, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders and the Issuing Banks, an amount in cash equal to the L/C Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in paragraphs (h) or (i) of Article VII. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the monetary Obligations of the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and

expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Banks for L/C Borrowings for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the L/C Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Credit Lenders with L/C Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total L/C Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

(k) Existing Letters of Credit. On the Effective Date (i) each Existing Letter of Credit, to the extent outstanding, shall be automatically and without further action by the parties thereto converted to Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this Section 2.05 for the account of the Borrower and subject to the provisions hereof, and for this purpose the fees specified in Section 2.11(b) shall be payable as if such Existing Letters of Credit had been issued on the Effective Date, (ii) the issuers of such Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be “Issuing Banks” hereunder solely for the purpose of maintaining such Existing Letters of Credit, for purposes of Section 2.16 relating to the obligation to provide the appropriate forms, certificates and statements to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and any updates required by Section 2.16 and for purposes of Section 2.09(c) relating to the entries to be made in the Register, (iii) the face amount of such Existing Letters of Credit shall be included in the calculation of L/C Exposure and (iv) all liabilities of the Borrower with respect to such Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute Obligations. No Existing Letter of Credit converted in accordance with this clause (k) shall be amended, renewed or extended without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 2.06. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan committed to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon (or in the case of Base Rate Loans, by 1:00 p.m.), New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders, provided, that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. The Administrative Agent will immediately make available to the Borrower on the Effective Date the aggregate amount of the Term Loan so received by it from the Term Lenders as provided in Section 2.01(a), and the Administrative Agent will make any such Revolving Credit Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the aggregate amounts so received from the Revolving Credit Lenders, in immediately available funds, to an account of the Borrower pursuant to instructions of the Borrower on file with the Administrative Agent and designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided, that Base Rate Revolving Credit Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an L/C Borrowing as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Banks.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing (or in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the day of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.06 and may, in reliance

upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent at the greater of (x) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (y) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation plus any administrative processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount with interest thereon upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor and the Administrative Agent previously made such amount available to Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and, if so notified, Borrower shall pay on the day it receives such notification (provided, however, that it if such day is not a Business Day or the Borrower receives such notification after 2:00 p.m., New York City time, then the Borrower shall pay on the next Business Day) such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent at the interest rate applicable to the relevant Borrowing for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. No provision of this Section 2.06 shall relieve a Lender which is in default with respect to its obligation to fund its Commitment in accordance with this Section 2.06.

SECTION 2.07. Interest Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert each such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.07. The Borrower may elect different Type options with respect to different portions of each affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the applicable Lenders holding the Loans constituting such Borrowing, and the Loans constituting each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section 2.07 shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings and accordingly no Swingline Borrowings may be converted or continued.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.07, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request substantially in the form attached as Exhibit F and signed by a Financial Officer.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02(d):

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be

specified pursuant to paragraphs (iii) and (iv) below of this Section 2.07(c) shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Revolving Credit Lender or Term Lender, as applicable, of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an Base Rate Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to a Base Rate Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.08. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Termination. Unless previously terminated, (i) the Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facility and (ii) the Term Loan Commitments shall terminate on the Effective Date immediately after giving effect to all Borrowings of Term Loans which are made on such date.

(b) Optional Reduction. The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in an amount that is equal to $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments to the extent that, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments as so terminated or reduced.

(c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section 2.08 at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Revolving Credit Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be

irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments described in paragraph (b) of this Section 2.08 delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be made ratably among the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitments.

SECTION 2.09. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay:

(i) in respect of Revolving Credit Loans, to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan on the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facility;

(ii) in respect of Term Loans, to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Term Loan Lender, the then unpaid principal amount or each Term Loan on the Maturity Date for the Term Loan Facility; and

(iii) in respect of Swingline Loans, to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan made by them from the proceeds of a Revolving Borrowing or otherwise on the earlier of the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facility and the date that is ten (10) Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided, that on each date a Revolving Borrowing is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the monetary Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at one of its offices the Register, in which it shall record (i) the names and addresses of, and the Total Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and L/C Borrowings owing to, each Lender, (ii) the amount of each such Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder, and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders (or Swingline Lender) or Term Lenders and each such Lender’s share thereof. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register, pursuant to the terms hereof, as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Banks and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice; provided, that no Lender shall be entitled to inspect the Register for the purpose of obtaining information set forth therein with respect to any other Lender. The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register as an agent of the Borrower.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) or (c) of this Section 2.09 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Any Lender may request that the Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a Promissory Note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender, with respect to such Loans, a Promissory Note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in the forms attached as Exhibit G-1 and G-2, as applicable to such Loans. Thereafter, such Loans of such Lender evidenced by such Promissory Note, and interest thereon, shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more Promissory Notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such Promissory Note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

SECTION 2.10. Optional Prepayment of Loans; Mandatory Prepayment and Termination upon Change in Control. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay the Term Loans or the Revolving Credit Loans, in each case in an amount (if less than the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Loans) equal to $10,000,000 or an integral amount of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or such lesser amount of any Class of Loans as is then outstanding), subject to prior notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 and subject to Section 2.15. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, each Swingline Lender thereof) with respect to the Loans to be prepaid, by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, or (ii) in the case of prepayment of a Base Rate Borrowing or a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.08. Promptly following receipt of any such notice of prepayment relating to the Term Loans, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Term Lenders of the contents of such notice. Each prepayment of the Term Loans shall be applied to reduce the remaining future quarterly installment amounts thereof payable under Section 2.09(a)(ii) on a pro rata basis.

(b) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control (i) all Loans then outstanding shall immediately become due and payable in full, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other monetary payment Obligations of the Borrower accrued hereunder (including any amount payable pursuant to Section 2.15), without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower, (ii) the Borrower shall provide cash collateral for outstanding undrawn Letters of Credit in the manner described in Section 2.05(j) and (iii) the Total Commitments shall be immediately terminated.

SECTION 2.11. Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender an unused commitment fee (an “Unused Commitment Fee”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the daily amount of the excess of (i) such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment over

(ii) such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure (excluding such Revolving Credit Lender’s Swingline Exposure) during the period from and including the Effective Date to, but excluding, the date on which any such Revolving Credit Commitment terminates. Accrued Unused Commitment Fees shall be calculated quarterly in arrears and payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate. All Unused Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit (the “Letter of Credit Fee”), which shall accrue at the same Applicable Interest Rate Margin used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loans on the average daily amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s L/C Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed L/C Borrowings) during the period from and including the Effective Date up to but excluding the later of the date on which such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment terminates and the date on which such Revolving Credit Lender ceases to have any L/C Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate per annum separately agreed upon between the Borrower and such Issuing Bank on the average daily amount of the L/C Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed L/C Borrowings) during the period from and including the Effective Date up to, but excluding, the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any L/C Exposure, as well as each Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day and on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Banks pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within ten (10) days after demand. All fees under this Section 2.11(b) shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the fees payable to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Fee Letter to which the Administrative Agent is a party.

(d) All fees payable under this Section 2.11 shall be paid, on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to any Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to such Issuing Bank) and, in the case of facility fees and participation fees, for distribution by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.12. Interest. (a) The Loans constituting each Base Rate Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Interest Margin Rate for such Loan.

(b) The Loans constituting each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Eurodollar Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Interest Margin Rate for such Loan.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any principal of, or interest on any Loan or any fee or other monetary payment Obligation payable by the Borrower hereunder shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of principal of any Loan, 2.0% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding clauses of this Section 2.12 and (ii) in the case of any other Obligation that has become due and payable (but is unpaid), 2.0% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Revolving Credit Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.12.

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Credit Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.12 shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of a Base Rate Revolving Credit Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Base Rate or Eurodollar Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at any time and from time to time upon request of Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate applicable to Loans pursuant to this Agreement.

SECTION 2.13. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

(a) the Administrative Agent determines in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or

(b) the Administrative Agent is notified by the Required Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer

exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing for such Interest Period shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Borrowing. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower as promptly as practicable of receipt of any notice from the Required Lenders referred to in paragraph (b) above of this Section 2.13. Any Lender delivering such notice shall be deemed to be an “Affected Lender” for purposes hereof until such Lender delivers to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower a withdrawal of such notice.

SECTION 2.14. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Eurodollar Rate) or the Issuing Banks; or

(ii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or any Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then subject to paragraphs (c) and (d) of this Section 2.14, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then subject to paragraphs (c) and (d) of this Section 2.14, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount(s) necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, and the basis for the calculation thereof as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.14 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or such Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.15. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10 and is revoked in accordance therewith), (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18 or (e) any deemed sale and purchase of participations pursuant to a Revolving Credit Facility Increase in accordance with Section 2.01(c), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense sustained by such Lender (or its Affiliates) as a result of such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall include any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such Eurodollar Loan to the Borrower, but shall exclude any loss of anticipated Applicable Interest Rate Margin that would have accrued following such event with respect to each such Eurodollar Loan but for the occurrence of such event. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount(s) that such Lender is entitled to receive and the basis for the calculation thereof pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.16. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any

obligation of the Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.

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

(e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to any Indemnified Tax or Other Tax (including by application of any treaty, the benefits of which such Lender is entitled), with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), on or prior to the date such Foreign Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (or designates a new lending office) and at such other times as may be necessary in the reasonable determination of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (i) two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8IMY (with the required attachments) or W-8ECI (or any successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Code to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under this Agreement, or (ii) if such Lender is not a “bank” or other Person described in Section 881(c)(3) of the Code and cannot deliver either Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8IMY (with the required attachments) or W-8ECI pursuant to clause (i) above of this Section 2.16(e), a Certificate of Non-Bank Status together with two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Code to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of interest payable under this Agreement. Each Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Form W-9 (or applicable successor form) unless it establishes to the satisfaction of the Borrower that the Lender is otherwise eligible for an exemption from backup withholding tax or other applicable withholding tax. Each Lender hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms, certificates or other evidence required to be provided pursuant to the first two sentences of this Section 2.16(e), whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Lender shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent for transmission to the Borrower two new original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8IMY (with the required attachments), W-8ECI or W-9 or a Certificate of Non-Bank Status and two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8, as the case may be, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Code to confirm or establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to payments to such Lender under this Agreement, or notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.16(e), a Foreign Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 2.16(e) that such Foreign Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(f) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall promptly notify the Borrower of such refund and promptly pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

SECTION 2.17. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of L/C Borrowings, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices set forth in Section 9.01, except (i) payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and (ii) payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16, and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars.

(b) Except for payments and other amounts received by the Administrative Agent and applied in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (f) of this Section 2.17, all payments and other amounts received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed L/C Borrowings, interest, fees and other monetary payment Obligations then due hereunder, as applicable, shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed L/C Borrowings then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed L/C Borrowings then due to such parties and (iii) third towards payment of any other monetary payment Obligations then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of such Obligations then due to such parties.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in L/C Borrowings or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in L/C Borrowings and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in L/C Borrowings and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in L/C Borrowings and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph (c) of this Section 2.17 shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in L/C Borrowings to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph (c) of this of this Section 2.17 shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or any Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b) or 2.17(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

(f) The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and agrees that, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.17(b), the Administrative Agent may, and, upon either (A) the written direction of the Required Lenders or (B) the acceleration of the monetary payment Obligations pursuant to

Article VII, shall, apply all payments in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations in the following order:

(i) first, to pay interest on and then principal of any portion of the Loans that the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower;

(ii) second, to pay Obligations in respect of any expense reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Administrative Agent;

(iii) third, to pay Obligations in respect of any expense reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks;

(iv) fourth, to pay Obligations in respect of any fees then due to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks;

(v) fifth, to pay interest then due and payable in respect of the Loans and L/C Borrowings;

(vi) sixth, to pay or prepay principal amounts on the Loans and L/C Borrowings (provided, that all such amounts to be applied to the Revolving Credit Facility shall first be applied to repay any outstanding Swingline Loans), to provide cash collateral for outstanding undrawn Letters of Credit in the manner described in Section 2.05(j) and to pay Hedging Obligations owing to any Hedging Creditor and Cash Management Obligations owing to any Guaranteed Party, ratably to the aggregate principal amount of such Loans, L/C Borrowings and undrawn Letters of Credit, Hedging Obligations and Cash Management Obligations; and

(vii) seventh, to the ratable payment of all other Guaranteed Obligations;

provided, however, that if sufficient funds are not available to fund all payments to be made in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation described in any of clauses (i) through (vii) above, the available funds being applied with respect to any such Guaranteed Obligation (unless otherwise specified in such clause) shall be allocated to the payment of such Guaranteed Obligations ratably, based on the proportion of the Administrative Agent’s, each Lender’s, each Hedging Creditor’s, each Issuing Bank’s and each other holder of a Guaranteed Obligation’s interest in the aggregate outstanding Obligations described in such clauses. The order of priority set forth in clauses (i) through (vii) above may at any time and from time to time be changed by the agreement of the Required Lenders and, to the extent that each Class is not equally affected thereby, with the additional agreement of the Required Class Lenders with respect to each affected Class, without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by the Borrower, any Guaranteed Party that is not a Lender or an Issuing Bank or by any other Person that is not a Lender or an Issuing Bank. The order of priority set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above may be changed only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent in addition to that of the Required Lenders.

SECTION 2.18. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16 or as a result of any Lender’s assignment to an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund pursuant to Section 9.04(b), or if any Lender is an Affected Lender, then

such Lender shall, upon the request of the Borrower, use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if such designation or assignment (i) would be reasonably expected to eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.14 or 2.16 in the future or result in such Lender or its assignee, as applicable, not being an Affected Lender; and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16 or as a result of any Lender’s assignment to an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund pursuant to Section 9.04(b), or (ii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or (iii) any Lender has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document requires the consent of all of the Lenders or of any Class of Lenders and with respect to which the Required Lenders or the Required Class Lenders, as applicable, shall have granted their consent (provided that for the purposes of this clause (iii), each of the percentages specified in the definitions of “Required Lenders” and “Required Class Lenders” shall be deemed, in each such case, to be increased to 75% and each such definition shall be construed accordingly), then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (other than in the case of a default by a Defaulting Lender, in which case such Lender shall be responsible for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs of the Borrower), upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, (x) prepay such Lender in full or (y) require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee selected by the Borrower and approved by the Administrative Agent (such approval not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) in accordance with Section 9.04, that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in L/C Borrowings and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts (including any amount required to be paid under Section 2.15) payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (ii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment would be reasonably expected to result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

SECTION 2.19. Extension of Maturity Date.

(a) Requests for Extension. The Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Revolving Credit Lenders and/or the Term Lenders, as applicable) not earlier than 60 days and not later than 35 days prior to each anniversary of the Effective Date up to and including the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date, each an “Extension Date”), request that each applicable Lender extend the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and/or the Term Loan Maturity Date for an additional one year from the applicable

Maturity Date then in effect hereunder (the “Existing Maturity Date”); provided that in no event shall a Maturity Date be extended beyond April 30, 2017.

(b) Lender Elections to Extend. Each applicable Lender, acting in its sole and individual discretion, shall, by notice to the Administrative Agent given not later than the date that is ten (10) Business Days after receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent of the Borrower’s request for an extension (the “Notice Date”), advise the Administrative Agent whether or not such Lender agrees to such extension (each such Lender that determines to so extend the applicable Maturity Date, being an “Extending Lender” and each applicable Lender that determines not to so extend the applicable Maturity Date, being a “Non-Extending Lender”, in each case, with respect to the applicable Facility). In the event that an applicable Lender does not so advise the Administrative Agent on or before the Notice Date such applicable Lender shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Lender. The election of any applicable Lender to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other applicable Lender to so agree.

(c) Notification by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of each applicable Lender’s determination under this Section no later than the date fifteen (15) days prior to the applicable Extension Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the next preceding Business Day).

(d) Additional Commitment Lenders. If (and only if) the Required Class Lenders have agreed to extend the Maturity Date of their respective Facility then in effect hereunder, the Borrower shall have the right within 90 days after notification by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.19(c) to replace each Non-Extending Lender with, and add as “Revolving Credit Lenders” or “Term Lenders”, as applicable, under this Agreement, one or more Eligible Assignees (each, an “Additional Commitment Lender”) as provided in Section 2.18(b); provided that each of such Additional Commitment Lenders shall enter into an Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which such Additional Commitment Lender shall, effective as of the date of the Assignment and Assumption, undertake (i) in the case of Additional Commitment Lenders in respect of the Revolving Credit Facilty, a Revolving Credit Commitment (and, if any such Additional Commitment Lender is already a Revolving Credit Lender, its Revolving Credit Commitment shall be in addition to any other Revolving Credit Commitment of such Revolving Credit Lender hereunder on such date) and (ii) in the case of Additional Commitment Lenders in respect of the Term Loan Facilty, Term Loans (and, if any such Additional Commitment Lender is already a Term Lender, its Term Loans shall be in addition to any other Term Loans of such Term Lender hereunder on such date).

(e) Minimum Extension Requirement. If (and only if) the Required Class Lenders have agreed so to extend the Maturity Date of their respective Facility then in effect hereunder as described in this Section 2.19, then, effective as of such Extension Date, the Maturity Date of the applicable Facility with respect to each Extending Lender and of each Additional Commitment Lender shall be extended to the date falling one year after the Existing Maturity Date in respect of such Facility (except that, if such date is not a Business Day, such Maturity Date as so extended shall be the next preceding Business Day) and each Additional Commitment Lender shall thereupon become a “Revolving Credit Lender” or a “Term Lender”, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement; provided, however, that there shall be no change in the applicable Maturity Date solely to the extent it relates to any Non-Extending Lender that has not been replaced by an Additional Commitment Lender (each a “Non-Replaced Lender”).

(f) Conditions to Effectiveness of Extensions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each extension of any Maturity Date pursuant to this Section shall not be effective with respect to any Lender unless:

(i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on such Extension Date and after giving effect thereto;

(ii) the representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in Article III (excluding, solely for the purposes of any extension of any Maturity Date, Section 3.04(c)) of this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects (except that to the extent any such representation or warranty is qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of such Extension Date, as applicable, except to the extent expressly referring only to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date; and

(iii) on the applicable Maturity Date with respect to each Non-Replaced Lender, the Borrower shall prepay any Loans (together with all interest and fees payable thereon) outstanding on such date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.15) to the extent necessary to repay, nonratably, the Loans of such Non-Replaced Lenders and the Commitment, if any, of such Non-Replaced Lenders shall be terminated. The Commitment percentages of the remaining applicable Lenders shall be revised as of such date.

(g) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.17 or 9.02 to the contrary.

ARTICLE III

Representations and Warranties

The Borrower represents and warrants to the Lenders as follows:

SECTION 3.01. Organization; Powers. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required except, in each case, where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, has not resulted, and would not reasonably be expected to result, in a Material Adverse Effect. Schedule 3.01(a) sets forth as of the date hereof each Subsidiary of the Borrower (separately identifying each Insurance Subsidiary). Schedule 3.01(b) sets forth as of the date hereof the name, address of principal place of business and taxpayer identification number of the Borrower.

SECTION 3.02. Authorization; Enforceability. The Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby are within each Loan Party’s corporate powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate and, if required, stockholder action on the part of the Loan Parties party thereto. Each of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party party thereto and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws

affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

SECTION 3.03. Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts; Ranking. (a) Immediately prior to the initial extensions of credit hereunder and at all other times thereafter to the extent required by Section 4.02, the Transactions do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and except as have not resulted, and would not reasonably be expected to result, in a Material Adverse Effect; (ii) do not violate any applicable law (including ERISA (but only to the extent that ERISA applies to the Plans) and Environmental Laws) or regulation or any order of any Governmental Authority except as have not resulted, and would not reasonably be expected to result, in a Material Adverse Effect; (iii) do not violate the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; (iv) will not violate any indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries except as has not resulted, and would not reasonably be expected to result, in a Material Adverse Effect; and (v) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien (except any Lien permitted by Section 6.02) on any asset of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

(b) Each Loan ranks pari passu in right of payment with each other Loan (except as provided herein) and, for bankruptcy purposes, with all other unsubordinated, non-credit enhanced and unsecured Indebtedness of the Borrower.

SECTION 3.04. Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change. (a) The Borrower has heretofore furnished to the Lenders its consolidated balance sheet and statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows as of and for the fiscal year ending December 30, 2006, reported on by PricewaterhouseCoopers, certified by its chief financial officer. Such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of operations and cash flows of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of such dates and for such periods in conformity with GAAP, subject to year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes in the case of the statements referred to in clause (B) above of this Section 3.04(a).

(b) The Borrower has heretofore furnished to the Lenders projections (the “Projections”) as of and for the period between fiscal year beginning 2007 and fiscal year ended 2011. Such projections were prepared by management of the Borrower in good faith based on assumptions that the Executive Officers believe are reasonable as of the date hereof.

(c) Since December 30, 2006, there has been no development or event that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.05. Properties; Insurance. (a) Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its real and personal property material to their business, taken as a whole, except for defects in title that do not materially interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such properties for their intended purposes.

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent; The Agents

SECTION 8.01. Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders and each of the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

SECTION 8.02. Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

SECTION 8.03. Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be

necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 9.02 and Article VII) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.04. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Platform or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authorized by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

SECTION 8.05. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.06. Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, subject to the approval of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty

(30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each Issuing Bank directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as Swingline Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (x) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring and Swingline Lender and (y) the retiring Swingline Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 8.07. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

SECTION 8.08. No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Agents or the Arrangers listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in their capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, a Lender or any Issuing Bank hereunder.

SECTION 8.09. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any

Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.11 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 and 9.03.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or any Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or any Issuing Bank or in any such proceeding.

SECTION 8.10. Guaranty Matters. The Lenders and the Issuing Banks irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 8.10. In each case as specified in this Section 8.10, the Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to release such Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty in accordance with Section 9.14(a), this Section 8.10, and the terms of the Loan Documents.

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

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase any Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) increase the maximum aggregate amount of Swingline Loans or L/C Obligations permitted to be outstanding hereunder without the written consent of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders and (in the case of such increase to the maximum aggregate amount of L/C Obligations) the applicable Issuing Bank, (iii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or L/C Borrowing or reduce the rate of interest thereon (other than a waiver of default interest arising under Section 2.08(b)), or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) postpone the Maturity Date or the scheduled date of payment of any interest on any Loan, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (v) change Section 2.13 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (vi) release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its guarantee obligations under the Guaranty (except as permitted by Section 9.14) without the written consent of each Lender, (vii) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender or (viii) change the allocation between any optional prepayments of Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans, without the written consent of the applicable Required Class Lenders affected thereby; provided, further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may, with the consent of the other, amend, modify or supplement this Agreement to cure any ambiguity, typographical error, defect or inconsistency, so long as such amendment, modification or supplement does not adversely affect the rights of any Lender or any Issuing Bank; provided, further, that the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may enter into any amendment necessary to implement the terms of an Incremental Term Loan or Revolving Credit Facility Increase in accordance with the terms of this Agreement without the consent of any Lender.

SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable, documented, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons, reasonably including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel, reasonable expenses incurred in connection with due diligence and travel, courier, reproduction, printing and delivery

All amounts due under this clause (a) shall be payable not later than 30 days after written demand therefor.

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify the each Agent, each Issuing Bank, each Lender, the Arrangers and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all reasonable and documented out-of pocket costs, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with any actual or threatened third-party claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding (a “Third-Party Claim”), whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, relating to (i) the execution or delivery of the commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”) dated as April 4, 2007, by and among the Company, Bank of America, N.A., Banc of America Securities LLC, and each other Arranger, and each Fee Letter, the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or any other matters or transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit that it issued if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit) or (iv) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that the foregoing indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final judgment to have resulted

from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of such Indemnitee. Upon receipt of notice of any Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof. The Borrower, in its sole discretion, upon written notice to the Indemnitee(s), may elect to defend (or may at any time assume the defense of) and may, with the consent of the Indemnitee(s) (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise any such Third-Party Claim, using counsel appointed by Borrower, which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee, if such settlement or compromise would result in the full release of Indemnitee from any liability arising thereof, or with the consent of the Indemnitee (not to be unreasonably withheld). No Indemnitee may compromise or settle or consent to the entry of judgment or determination of liability with respect to a Third-Party Claim for which it is seeking indemnification hereof, without the consent of Borrower. All amounts due under this paragraph (b) shall be payable not later than 30 days after written demand therefor.

(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, (i) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and (ii) each Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees to pay to such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, respectively, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage with respect to the Facilities and such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such respective unpaid amounts; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. All amounts due under this paragraph (c) shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.04(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.04(d) or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 9.04(f). Any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment(s) and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 9.04(b), participations in L/C Obligations and in Swingline Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment under any Facility and the Loans at the time owing to it under such Facility or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent, shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default under paragraphs (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not (A) apply to the Swingline Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of Swingline Loans or (B) prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis;

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except for the following:

(A) the consents required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section;

(B) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default under paragraphs (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) to the extent such assignment is an assignment of Term Loans, such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

(C) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of (1) any Term Loan Commitment or Revolving Credit Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Commitment in respect of the applicable Facility, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender or (2) any Term Loan to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

(D) the consent of each Issuing Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (whether or not then outstanding); and

(E) the consent of the Borrower (unless an Event of Default under paragraphs (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment) and the Swingline Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility.

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. If the assignee is not a Lender, such assignee shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Borrower) an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v) No Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

(vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16, and 9.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Promissory Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 9.04(d).

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swingline Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.04(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17 as though it were a Lender.

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.14 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.16(e) as though it were a Lender.

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent (except as may be required under Section 9.04(b)(iii) in connection with an assignment resulting from an enforcement of a pledge or security interest) pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Promissory Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender to (i) an Eligible Assignee or (ii) a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(g) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption 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.

(h) Resignation as Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) at any time Bank of America, N.A. may upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as Issuing Bank and/or, upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Borrower, resign as Swingline Lender and (ii) at any time ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, N.A. and Bank of America, N.A. may each upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as Issuing Bank. In the event of any such resignation as Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of the existing Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be. In the event any Issuing Bank resigns, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Bank and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.05). In the event a Swingline Lender resigns, it shall retain all the rights of the Swingline Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Upon the appointment of a successor Issuing Bank and/or Swingline Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, and (b) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Borrower and the resigning Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, to effectively assume the obligations thereof with respect to such Letters of Credit.

SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents in effect constitute the entire contract

among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

(b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto 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. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto 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.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).

SECTION 9.13. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.
