WHEREAS, the Lenders have agreed to make the requested credit facilities available to the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries and to amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement, in each case on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1

“Affiliated Company” means an affiliated company (verbundenes Unternehmen) of a German Guarantor within the meaning of §§ 15 et. seq. of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz).

“Aggregate Revolving Commitment” means the aggregate Revolving Commitment of all Revolving Lenders to make Revolving Loans and participate in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans, as such amount may be reduced or increased at any time or from time to time pursuant to the terms hereof. The Aggregate Revolving Commitment on the Closing Date shall be $125,000,000.

“Alternate Base Rate” means, for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greater of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus 1/2 of 1% and (c) the sum of (i) LIBOR (as determined pursuant to the definition of LIBOR), for an Interest Period of one (1) month commencing on such day plus (ii) 1.00%, in each instance as of such date of determination. For purposes hereof: “Prime Rate” means, at any time, the rate of interest per annum publicly announced or otherwise identified from time to time by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo as its prime rate. Each change in the Prime Rate shall be effective as of the opening of business on the day such change in the Prime Rate occurs.

If for any reason the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error) (A) that it is unable after due inquiry to ascertain the Federal Funds Effective Rate, for any reason, including the inability or failure of the Administrative Agent to obtain sufficient quotations in accordance with the terms above or (B) that the Prime Rate or LIBOR no longer accurately reflects an accurate determination of the prevailing Prime Rate or LIBOR, the Administrative Agent may select a reasonably comparable index or source to use as the basis for the Alternate Base Rate, until the circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist. Any change in the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in any of the foregoing will become effective on the effective date of such change in the Federal Funds Effective Rate, the Prime Rate or LIBOR for an Interest Period of one (1) month. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent that Section 2.13 applies in determining LIBOR pursuant to clause (c) hereof, the Alternate Base Rate shall be the greater of (i) the Prime Rate in effect on such day and (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus 1/2 of 1%.

“Alternate Base Rate Loans” means Loans that bear interest at an interest rate based on the Alternate Base Rate.

“Applicable Law” means all applicable provisions of constitutions, laws, statutes, ordinances, rules, treaties, regulations, permits, licenses, approvals, interpretations and orders of Governmental Authorities and all orders and decrees of all courts and arbitrators.

APPLICABLE PERCENTAGE
Level	Leverage Ratio	LIBOR Rate Margin for Revolving Loans and L/C Fee	Alternate Base Rate Margin for Revolving Loans	Commitment Fee
I	≥2.50 to 1.00	3.50%	2.50%	0.750%
II	≥2.00 to 1.00 but < 2.50 to 1.00	3.00%	2.00%	0.625%
III	≥1.50 to 1.00 but < 2.00 to 1.00	2.75%	1.75%	0.500%
IV	≥ 1.00 to 1.00 but <1.50 to 1.00	2.50%	1.50%	0.375%
V	<1.00 to 1.00	2.25%	1.25%	0.300%

The Applicable Percentage shall, in each case, be determined and adjusted quarterly on the date five (5) Business Days after the date on which the Administrative Agent has received from the Company the quarterly financial information (in the case of the first three fiscal quarters of the Company’s fiscal year), the annual financial information (in the case of the fourth fiscal quarter of the Borrower’s fiscal year) and the certifications required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in accordance with the provisions of Sections 5.1(a), 5.1(b) and 5.2(b) (each an “Interest Determination Date”). Such Applicable Percentage shall be effective from such Interest Determination Date until the next such Interest Determination Date. After the Closing Date, if the Company shall fail to provide the financial information or certifications in accordance with the provisions of Sections 5.1(a), 5.1(b) and 5.2(b) the Applicable Percentage shall, on the date five (5) Business Days after the date by which the Company was so required to provide such financial information or certifications to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, be based on Level I until such time as such information or certifications or corrected information or corrected certificates are provided, whereupon the Level shall be determined by the then current Leverage Ratio. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the initial Applicable Percentages shall be set with pricing no lower than that set forth in Level IV until the financial information and certificates required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.1 and 5.2 for the first fiscal quarter end to occur following the Closing Date have been delivered to the Administrative Agent, for distribution to the Lenders; provided that if the quarterly financial information as of the most recent Interest Determination Date would result in a higher Applicable Percentage (i.e. Level I), such higher Applicable Percentage shall apply. In the event that any financial statement or certification delivered pursuant to Sections 5.1 or 5.2 is shown to be inaccurate (regardless of whether this Agreement or the Commitments are in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Percentage for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Percentage applied for such Applicable Period, the Company shall immediately (a) deliver to the Administrative Agent a corrected Officer’s Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Period, (b) determine the Applicable Percentage for such Applicable Period based upon the corrected compliance certificate, and (c) immediately pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders the accrued additional interest and other fees owing as a result of such increased Applicable Percentage for such Applicable Period, which payment shall be promptly distributed by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders entitled thereto.

2.1 Revolving Facilities.

(a) Revolving Facility. During the Commitment Period, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Revolving Lender severally agrees to make revolving loans (the “Revolving Loans”) to each Borrower, in any Optional Currency and for the purposes hereinafter set forth from time to time in the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Ratable Share of such Loans provided that (i) the Aggregate Revolving Exposure shall not at any time exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment or (ii) with regard to each Revolving Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Exposure shall not exceed its Revolving Commitment.

Each borrowing of Revolving Loans shall be comprised of (i) in the case of a borrowing denominated in Dollars, either LIBOR Rate Loans or Alternate Base Rate Loans as the applicable Borrower may request in accordance herewith and (ii) in the case of a borrowing denominated in any Foreign Currency, LIBOR Rate Loans. Each Lender at its option may satisfy its obligation to make any Revolving Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Revolving Loan (in which case all payments of principal and interest with respect to such Loan shall be owed to such branch or Affiliate); provided that any exercise of such option shall not reduce the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such Lender shall remain obligated in all respects for all of its obligations hereunder.

(c) Type. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of six (6) borrowings of LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding.

(d) Revolving Borrowings.

(i) Notice of Borrowing. The Company (on its own behalf or on behalf of any Borrower) shall request a Revolving Loan borrowing by delivering a written Notice of Borrowing (or telephone notice promptly confirmed in writing through delivery of a Notice of Borrowing) to the Administrative Agent (A) not later than 11:00 A.M. (I) on the Business Day of the requested borrowing in the case of Alternate Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, (II) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the requested borrowing in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in Dollars and (B) not later than 10:00 A.M.

If the Company shall fail to specify in any such Notice of Borrowing (x) an applicable Interest Period in the case of a LIBOR Rate Loan, then such notice shall be deemed to be a request for an Interest Period of one month, (y) the Type of Loan requested in the case of a Loan to be made in Dollars, then such notice shall be deemed to be a request for an Alternate Base Rate Loan hereunder or (z) the currency for such Loan, then such Loan shall be made in Dollars. The Administrative Agent shall give notice to each Lender promptly, on the same day received by the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of each Notice of Borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.1(d)(i), the contents thereof and each such Lender’s share of any borrowing to be made pursuant thereto.

(ii) Advances. Upon receipt of any Notice of Borrowing from the Administrative Agent, each Lender (or its respective domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate) will make available to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant Borrower, in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent and in the applicable currency, such Lender’s Ratable Share of the Revolving Loans to be made on such borrowing date, no later than 2:00 P.M., Charlotte, North Carolina time, on the proposed borrowing date of an Alternate Base Rate Loan or Dollar LIBOR Rate Loan, and no later than 10:00 A.M., Charlotte, North Carolina time, on the proposed borrowing date of an LIBOR Rate Loan denominated in any Foreign Currency. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of each borrowing requested for such Borrower pursuant to this Section in Same Day Funds by crediting or wiring such proceeds to the deposit account of such Borrower identified in the Notice of Borrowing. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to disburse the portion of the proceeds of any Revolving Loan requested pursuant to this Section for which any Lender is responsible to the extent that such Lender has not made available to the Administrative Agent its Ratable Share of such Revolving Loan.

(e) Repayment. Each Borrower agrees to repay the outstanding principal amount of all Loans made to it under, and its Reimbursement Obligations under, the Revolving Facilities in the applicable currency and in full on the Maturity Date, with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon together with all other amounts then outstanding.

2.2 Swingline Loan Subfacility.

(a) Swingline Commitment. During the Commitment Period, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swingline Lender, in its individual capacity, agrees to make, in reliance upon the agreements of the Revolving Lenders set forth in this Section, a portion of the Revolving Commitment available to the Company by making Swingline Loans to the Company in Dollars and in Euros (each a “Swingline Loan” and, collectively, the “Swingline Loans”) for the purposes hereinafter set forth; provided, however, (i) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent of Swingline Loans (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) outstanding at any time shall not exceed FIFTEEN MILLION DOLLARS ($15,000,000) (the “Swingline Committed Amount”), (ii) with regard to each Revolving Lender individually (other than the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such), such Lender’s Revolving Exposure shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment or (iii) with regard to the Revolving Lenders collectively, the Aggregate Revolving Exposure shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment. Swingline Loans hereunder may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof. Swingline Loans denominated in Euros shall consist solely of LIBOR Market Index Rate Loans.

(b) Swingline Loan Borrowings.

(i) Notice of Borrowing and Disbursement. Upon receiving a Notice of Borrowing from the Company (A) not later than 12:00 Noon (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on any Business Day requesting that a Swingline Loan be made in Dollars, the Swingline Lender will make a Swingline Loan which is denominated in Dollars available to the Company on the same Business Day and (B) not later than 10:00 A.M. (London, England time) on any Business Day requesting that a Swingline Loan be made in Euros, the Swingline Lender will make a Swingline Loan which is denominated in Euros available to the Company on such date. Swingline Loan borrowings hereunder shall be made in minimum amounts of $100,000 and in integral amounts of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each such request for borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) that a Swingline Loan is requested, (B) the date of the requested borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (C) the aggregate principal amount to be borrowed, (D) whether the borrowing shall be made in Dollars or in Euros and (E) the location and number of the Company’s account to which funds are to be disbursed. If the Company shall fail to specify in any such Notice of Borrowing the applicable currency for such Swingline Loan, such Swingline Loan shall be made in Dollars. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Swingline Lender shall not at any time be obligated to make any Swingline Loan hereunder if any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender, unless the Swingline Lender has entered into arrangements satisfactory to the Swingline Lender with the Borrowers or such Lender to eliminate the Swingline Lender’s risk with respect to such Lender’s obligations in respect of its Swingline Commitment.

(ii) Repayment of Swingline Loans. Each Swingline Loan borrowing shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. The Swingline Lender may, at any time, in its sole discretion, by written notice to the Company and the Administrative Agent, demand repayment of its Swingline Loans by way of a Revolving Loan borrowing, in which case the Company shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan borrowing in Dollars comprised entirely of Alternate Base Rate Loans in the Dollar Equivalent of such Swingline Loans; provided, however, that, in the following circumstances, any such demand shall also be deemed to have been given one Business Day prior to each of (A) the Maturity Date, (B) the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event, (C) upon acceleration of the Credit Party Obligations hereunder, whether on account of a Bankruptcy Event or any other Event of Default and (D) the exercise of remedies in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.2 hereof (each such Revolving Loan borrowing made on account of any such deemed request therefor as provided herein being hereinafter referred to as a “Mandatory Borrowing”). Each Revolving Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make such Revolving Loans promptly upon any such request or deemed request on account of each Mandatory Borrowing in the Dollar Equivalent of such Swingline Loans and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence and on the same date such request is made by the Swingline Lender notwithstanding (A) the amount of Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount for borrowings of Revolving Loans otherwise required hereunder, (B) whether any conditions specified in Section 4.2 are then satisfied, (C) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (D) failure of any such request or deemed request for Revolving Loans to be made by the time otherwise required in Section 2.1(d)(i), (E) the date of such Mandatory Borrowing, or (F) any reduction in the Revolving Committed Amount or termination of the Revolving Commitments immediately prior to such Mandatory Borrowing or contemporaneously therewith. In the event that any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Company), then each Revolving Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from the Company on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from the Swingline Lender such participations in the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause each such Revolving Lender to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon its respective Ratable Share (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 7.2); provided that (A) subject to clause (B) below, all interest payable on the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender until the date as of which the respective participation is purchased, and (B) at the time any purchase of participations pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Revolving Lender shall be required to pay to the Swingline Lender interest on the principal Dollar Equivalent of such participation purchased for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the rate equal to, if paid within two (2) Business Days of the date of the Mandatory Borrowing, the Overnight Rate, and thereafter at a rate equal to the Alternate Base Rate, and upon such purchase shall be entitled to interest on such amounts from and including the date of the Mandatory Borrowing.

(c) Interest on Swingline Loans. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.5, Swingline Loans that are denominated in (i) Dollars shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Percentage for Revolving Loans that are Alternate Base Rate Loans and (ii) Euros shall bear interest at the LIBOR Market Index Rate plus the Applicable Percentage for Revolving Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans. Interest on Swingline Loans shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date.

(d) Swingline Note. The Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by a duly executed Swingline Note of the Company to the Swingline Lender in the original amount of the Swingline Committed Amount and substantially in the form of Schedule 2.2 to the extent requested by the Swingline Lender.

(e) Cash Collateral. At any point in time in which there is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender may, to the extent permitted under the terms of Section 2.24, require the Company to Cash Collateralize the outstanding Swingline Loans in accordance with Section 2.24.

2.3 Letter of Credit Subfacility.

(a) L/C Commitment.

(i) Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the Revolving Lenders set forth in this Section, agrees to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Company on any Business Day during the Commitment Period in such form as may be requested by the Company and approved from time to time by the Issuing Lender; provided, that the Issuing Lender shall not issue, amend, extend or renew any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, extension or renewal, (A) the Aggregate Revolving Exposure would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment or (B) the Aggregate L/C Obligations would exceed the Aggregate L/C Sublimit. Each Letter of Credit may be denominated in any Optional Currency.

(ii) Issuance of Letters of Credit. Each Letter of Credit shall (A) be a letter of credit issued to support obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, contingent or otherwise, (B) expire on a date not later than one year after the date of issuance thereof and during the Commitment Period and (C) be subject to the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance) and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the laws of the State in which the corporate headquarters of the Issuing Lender is located or such other jurisdiction as is acceptable to the Issuing Lender. The Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if (1) such issuance violates any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority that by its terms enjoins or restrains the issuance of such Letter of Credit, (2) any Applicable Law applicable to the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over it shall prohibit, or request that it refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally, (3) such Letter of Credit in particular shall impose upon it or any Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction or reserve or capital requirement (for which the Issuing Lender or any Lender is not otherwise compensated), or any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable or in effect as of the Closing Date or (4) any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender, unless the Issuing Lender has entered into arrangements satisfactory to the Issuing Lender with the Borrowers or such Lender to eliminate the Issuing Lender’s risk with respect to such Lender’s L/C Obligations. References herein to “issue” and derivations thereof with respect to Letters of Credit shall also include any amendment, extension, renewal or increase in the stated amount of any existing Letters of Credit, unless the context otherwise requires.

(b) Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Company may from time to time request that the Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit (or amend, extend or renew an outstanding Letter of Credit) by delivering to the Issuing Lender at any address mutually acceptable to the Company and the Issuing Lender an L/C Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of the Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as the Issuing Lender may reasonably request. The L/C Application will contain a representation and warranty that the conditions specified in Section 4.2 hereof have been satisfied or waived in writing by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Required Lenders as of the date of the L/C Application. Upon receipt of any L/C Application, the Issuing Lender shall process such L/C Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall, subject to this Section and the other terms herein, promptly issue the Letter of Credit (or amend, extend or renew the outstanding Letter of Credit) requested thereby (but in no event shall the Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit (or amend, extend or renew an outstanding Letter of Credit) earlier than three (3) Business Days after its receipt of the L/C Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed by the Issuing Lender and the Company. Within fifteen (15) Business Days after the end of each calendar quarter, the Issuing Lender (or the Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent agrees to undertake such action) shall report to each Lender all Letters of Credit issued by it during the previous calendar quarter and the average daily undrawn and unexpired amounts for all Letters of Credit for each day in such calendar quarter. The Issuing Lender (or the Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent agrees to undertake such action) shall calculate the Dollar Equivalent of each outstanding Letter of Credit denominated in any Foreign Currency as of each Revaluation Date and shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Company of such calculation, and such calculation shall be the basis of any determination of the amount of outstanding L/C Obligations for purposes hereof until the next such calculation.

(i) The Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and, to induce the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each Revolving Lender irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such Revolving Lender’s own account and risk, an undivided interest equal to its Ratable Share of the Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and the amount of each draft paid by the Issuing Lender thereunder. Each Revolving Lender unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with the Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which the Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Revolving Lender shall pay to the Issuing Lender upon demand at the Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Ratable Share of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed.

(ii) Upon becoming aware of any amount required to be paid by any Lender to the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the amount and due date of such required payment and such Lender shall pay to the Issuing Lender the amount specified on the applicable due date. If any such amount is paid to the Issuing Lender after the date such payment is due, such Lender shall pay to the Issuing Lender on demand, in addition to such amount, the product of (A) such amount, multiplied by (B) the Overnight Rate, multiplied by (C) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. A certificate of the Issuing Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. With respect to payment to the Issuing Lender of the unreimbursed amounts described in this Section, if the relevant Lenders receive notice that any such payment is due (A) prior to 1:00 P.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on any Business Day, such payment shall be due that Business Day, and (B) after 1:00 P.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on any Business Day, such payment shall be due on the following Business Day.

(iii) Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender the Ratable Share of such payment in accordance with this Section, the Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Company or otherwise, or any payment of interest on account thereof), the Issuing Lender will distribute to such Lender its Ratable Share; provided, that in the event that any such payment received by the Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by the Issuing Lender, such Lender shall return to the Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it.

(d) Reimbursement Obligation of the Company. The Company agrees to reimburse the Issuing Lender on each date the Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent notifies such Company of the date and amount of a draft paid under any Letter of Credit requested by the Company for the amount of (A) such draft so paid and (B) any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with such payment. Each such payment shall be made to the Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein in the currency in which such Letter of Credit is denominated (except that, in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in any Foreign Currency, in the event that such payment is not made to the Issuing Lender on the date of receipt by the Company of such notice, such payment shall be made in Dollars, in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such payment) and in Same Day Funds. Interest shall be payable on any and all amounts remaining unpaid by the Company under this Section from the date such amounts become payable (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) until payment in full at the Alternate Base Rate plus 2%. If the Company fails to timely reimburse the Issuing Lender on the date the Company receives the notice referred to in this Section, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such failure, and the Company shall be deemed to have timely given a Notice of Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.1 (without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in such Section) to the Administrative Agent requesting the Lenders to make an Alternate Base Rate Loan under the Credit Facility on such date in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such draft paid, together with any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender and to be reimbursed pursuant to this Section and, regardless of whether or not the conditions precedent specified in Section 4 have been satisfied, the applicable Lenders shall make Alternate Base Rate Loans in such amount, the proceeds of which shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount of the related drawing and costs and expenses. Any conversion by the Issuing Lender of any payment to be made by the Company in respect of any Letter of Credit denominated in any Foreign Currency into Dollars in accordance with this Section (using the conversion mechanism set forth in the definition of Dollar Equivalent) shall be conclusive and binding upon the Company and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error; provided that upon the request of any Lender, the Issuing Lender shall provide to such Lender a certificate including reasonably detailed information as to the calculation of such conversion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section shall obligate the Lenders to make such Alternate Base Rate Loans if the making of such Alternate Base Rate Loans would violate the automatic stay under the Bankruptcy Code.

(e) Obligations Absolute. The Company’s obligations under this Section (including, without limitation, the Reimbursement Obligation) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Company may have or have had against the Issuing Lender or any beneficiary or transferee of a Letter of Credit (or any person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting). The Company also agrees with the Issuing Lender that no Issuing Lender shall be responsible for, and the Company’s Reimbursement Obligation under this Section shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent, forged or insufficient in any respect, or any dispute between or among the Company and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Company against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee. No Issuing Lender shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message, advice, or document, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions caused by the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Company agrees that any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct and in accordance with the standards of care specified in the Uniform Customs and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the UCC, shall be binding on the Company and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Lender to the Company. The responsibility of the Issuing Lender to the Company in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such Letter of Credit.

(f) Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Company of the date and the Dollar Equivalent of the amount thereof.

(g) Effect of L/C Application. To the extent that any provision of any L/C Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section, the provisions of this Section shall apply.

(h) Cash Collateral. At any point in time in which there is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Lender, to the extent permitted under the terms of Section 2.24, may require the Company to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in accordance with Section 2.24.

2.4 Additional Loans.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company and the Foreign Borrowers shall have the right to increase the Aggregate Revolving Commitment (an “Additional Commitment”) by an aggregate amount of up to $50,000,000 (the “Aggregate Additional Commitment”) at any time prior to the date that is one Business Day prior to the Maturity Date. The following terms and conditions shall apply to any Additional Commitment: (i) the loans made under the Additional Commitment (each an “Additional Loan”) shall constitute Credit Party Obligations, (ii) such Additional Loans shall have the same terms (including interest rate) as the existing Revolving Loans, (iii) any such Additional Loans shall be entitled to the same voting rights as the existing Revolving Loans and shall be entitled to receive proceeds of prepayments on the same basis as the existing Revolving Loans, (iv) any such Additional Commitment shall be obtained from existing Lenders or from other banks, financial institutions or investment funds, in each case in accordance with the terms set forth below, (v) such Additional Commitment shall be in a minimum principal Dollar Equivalent (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of $5,000,000 or the unused portion of the limit set forth above and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (vi) the proceeds of any Additional Loan will be used to finance capital expenditures and working capital and other general corporate purposes, including Permitted Acquisitions, (vii) the Company and the Foreign Borrowers shall execute such promissory notes as are necessary and requested by the Lenders to reflect the Additional Commitment and the Additional Loans, (viii) the conditions to Extensions of Credit in Section 4.2 shall have been satisfied with respect to such Additional Loans, (ix) the Administrative Agent shall have received such legal opinions from counsel to the Credit Parties, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as the Administrative Agent reasonably shall request, (x) the Administrative Agent shall have received such amendments to the Credit Documents, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as the Administrative Agent reasonably shall request and (xi) the Administrative Agent shall have received from the Company updated financial projections and an officer’s certificate, in each case in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, demonstrating that, after giving effect to any such Additional Commitment or Additional Loans, the Company will be in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 5.9. Participation in any Additional Commitment may be offered to each of the existing Lenders, but no such Lender shall be required to provide all or any portion of any such Additional Loan. Failure of any Lender to respond to a request for an Additional Loan shall be deemed a rejection by such Lender of such request. If the amount of any Additional Loan requested by the Company shall exceed the commitments which the existing Lenders are willing to provide with respect to such Additional Loan, then the Company may invite other banks, financial institutions and investment funds reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent to join this Agreement as Lenders hereunder for the portion of such Additional Commitment not taken by existing Lenders, provided that such other banks, financial institutions and investment funds shall enter into such joinder agreements to give effect thereto as the Administrative Agent and the Company may reasonably request. The existing Lenders shall make such assignments (which assignments shall not be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 10.6(b)) of the outstanding Loans and Participation Interests to the Lenders providing any an Additional Commitment so that, after giving effect to such assignments, each Lender (including the Lenders providing the Additional Commitments) will hold Loans and Participation Interests equal to its Ratable Share of all outstanding Loans and L/C Obligations. The Administrative Agent is authorized to enter into, on behalf of the Lenders, any amendment to this Agreement or any other Credit Document as may be necessary to incorporate the terms of any Additional Loan or Additional Commitment.

2.5 Default Rate and Payment Dates.

(a) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan which is a LIBOR Rate Loan shall not be paid when due or continued as a LIBOR Rate Loan in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.6 (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue principal amount of such Loan shall be converted to an Alternate Base Rate Loan at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a (i) Bankruptcy Event or a Payment Event of Default, the principal of and, to the extent permitted by law, interest on the Loans and any other amounts owing hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall automatically bear interest at a rate per annum which is equal to the Default Rate and (ii) any other Event of Default hereunder, at the option of the Required Lenders, the principal of and, to the extent permitted by law, interest on the Loans and any other amounts owing hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall bear interest, payable on demand, at a per annum rate which is equal to the Default Rate.

(c) Interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section shall be payable from time to time on demand.

2.6 Extension and Conversion.

The Company shall have the option, on any Business Day, to extend existing Loans into a subsequent permissible Interest Period or to convert Loans made in Dollars into Loans of another Type; provided, however, that (a) except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in Dollars may be converted into Alternate Base Rate Loans only on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (b) LIBOR Rate Loans may be extended, and Alternate Base Rate Loans may be converted into LIBOR Rate Loans, only if the conditions in Section 4.2 have been satisfied and (c) Loans extended as, or converted into, LIBOR Rate Loans shall be subject to the terms of the definition of “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1 and shall be in such minimum amounts as provided in Section 2.1(d). Any request for extension or conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan which shall fail to specify an Interest Period shall be deemed to be a request for an Interest Period of one month. Each such extension or conversion shall be effected by the Company by giving a Notice of Conversion (or telephone notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 A.M. on the Business Day of, in the case of the conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan into an Alternate Base Rate Loan, and on the fourth Business Day prior to, in the case of the extension of a LIBOR Rate Loan as, or conversion of an Alternate Base Rate Loan into, a LIBOR Rate Loan, the date of the proposed extension or conversion, specifying (i) the date of the proposed extension or conversion, (ii) the Loans to be so extended or converted, (iii) the Types of Loans into which such Loans are to be converted and (iv) if appropriate, the applicable Interest Periods with respect thereto. Each request for extension or conversion shall be irrevocable and shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Company of the matters specified in Section 4.2. In the event the Company fails to request extension or conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan made in Dollars in accordance with this Section, or any such conversion or extension is not permitted or required by this Section, then such LIBOR Rate Loan shall be converted to an Alternate Base Rate Loan at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender notice as promptly as practicable of any such proposed extension or conversion affecting any Loan.

2.7 Voluntary Prepayments and Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) Voluntary Repayments. Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans may be repaid in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) LIBOR Rate Loans may be repaid only upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, and Alternate Base Rate Loans may be repaid only upon at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, (ii) repayments of LIBOR Rate Loans must be accompanied by payment of any amounts owing under Section 2.16, and (iii) partial repayments of the LIBOR Rate Loans shall be in minimum principal amount of $2,000,000, and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, or if less, the remaining amount thereof, and partial repayments of Alternate Base Rate Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,000,000, and in integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof, or if less, the remaining amount thereof. Interest accrued through the date of prepayment on the principal amount prepaid shall be payable on the next occurring Interest Payment date that would have occurred had such Loan not been prepaid or, at the request of the Administrative Agent, interest on the principal amount prepaid shall be payable on any date that a prepayment is made hereunder through the date of prepayment. All voluntary prepayments of Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section shall be distributed ratably to the Lenders holding such Revolving Loans.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments.

(i) If at any time the Aggregate Revolving Exposure exceeds 105% (or if none of such Aggregate Revolving Exposure is denominated in any Foreign Currency, 100%) of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment, the relevant Borrower or Borrowers agree immediately upon notice from the Administrative Agent, by payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Revolving Lenders, to repay Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans and/or furnish Cash Collateral as described in Section 2.7(c), in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such excess. Any repayment of LIBOR Rate Loans pursuant to this Section other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto shall be accompanied by any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.16 hereof.

(ii) If the Administrative Agent, notifies the Company at any time that the Aggregate L/C Obligations at such time exceeds 105% (or if none of such Aggregate L/C Obligations are denominated in any Foreign Currency, 100%) of the L/C Sublimit then in effect, then, within two (2) Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Company shall Cash Collateralize the Aggregate L/C Obligations in an amount equal to the amount by which the Aggregate L/C Obligations exceeds the L/C Sublimit.

(c) Application. Unless otherwise specified by the Company, voluntary repayments and mandatory prepayments made hereunder shall be applied first to Swingline Loans, second to Alternate Base Rate Loans, then to LIBOR Rate Loans in direct order of Interest Period maturities and third (after all Loans have been repaid) to a Cash Collateral account in respect of L/C Obligations. Amounts repaid on the Swingline Loan and the Revolving Loans may be reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof. All prepayments made under this Section shall be subject to Section 2.16 and be accompanied by interest on the principal amount prepaid through the date of prepayment, but otherwise without premium or penalty.

(d) Hedging Obligations Unaffected. Any repayment or prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall not affect the Company’s obligation to continue to make payments under any Hedging Agreement with a Hedging Agreement Provider, which shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such repayment or prepayment, subject to the terms of such Hedging Agreement.

2.8 Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

(a) Voluntary Reductions. The Company shall have the right at any time and from time to time, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, to permanently terminate or reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $5,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) such reduction shall not cause (A) the Aggregate Revolving Exposure to exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment, or (B) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent of the Swingline Loans outstanding to exceed the Swingline Committed Amount. Upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender. The amount of any termination or reduction made under this Section may not thereafter be reinstated.

(b) Mandatory Reduction. The Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Maturity Date.

2.9 Fees.

(a) Commitment Fee. Subject to Section 2.25, in consideration of the Commitments, the Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders holding Commitments a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) in an amount equal to the Applicable Percentage per annum multiplied by the average daily unused Dollar Equivalent (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment. The Commitment Fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears. For purposes of computation of the Commitment Fee, Aggregate L/C Obligations and the outstanding Swingline Loans shall be considered usage of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment. The Commitment Fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the 15th day following the last day of each calendar quarter for the prior calendar quarter, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date (and, if applicable, thereafter on demand). The Commitment Fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Percentage during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Percentage separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Percentage was in effect.

(b) L/C Fees.

(i) Subject to Section 2.25, the Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Revolving Lender, a letter of credit fee (the “L/C Fee”) in Dollars with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the average daily undrawn amount of such issued Letters of Credit multiplied by the Applicable Percentage for LIBOR Rate Loans then in effect.

(ii) The L/C Fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the 15th day following the last day of each calendar quarter for the prior calendar quarter, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date (and, if applicable, thereafter on demand).

(iii) The Administrative Agent shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, distribute to the Revolving Lenders the L/C Fee received by the Administrative Agent in accordance with their respective Ratable Share.

(c) Issuing Lender Fees. In addition to the L/C Fees payable pursuant to subsection (b) above, the Borrowers shall pay to the Issuing Lender for its own account without sharing by the other Lenders (i) a fronting fee of one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) per annum on the average daily maximum amount available to be drawn under each such Letter of Credit issued by it, such fee to be paid on the 15th day following the last day of the calendar quarter in which such Letter of Credit is issued and (ii) the reasonable and customary charges from time to time of the Issuing Lender with respect to the amendment, transfer, administration, cancellation and conversion of, and drawings under, such Letters of Credit (collectively, the “Issuing Lender Fees”).

(d) Administrative Agent’s Fee. The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent the annual administrative agent fee as described in the Fee Letter.

2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees; Usury.

(a) Interest payable hereunder with respect to Alternate Base Rate Loans based on the Prime Rate and Loans denominated in British Pounds Sterling shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days, as applicable) for the actual days elapsed. All other fees, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Company and the Lenders of each determination of a LIBOR Rate on the Business Day of the determination thereof. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Alternate Base Rate shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change in the Alternate Base Rate shall become effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Company and the Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Company, deliver to the Company a statement showing the computations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate.

(c) It is the intent of the Lenders and the Credit Parties to conform to and contract in strict compliance with applicable usury law from time to time in effect. All agreements between the Lenders and the Credit Parties are hereby limited by the provisions of this subsection which shall override and control all such agreements, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral. In no way, nor in any event or contingency (including, but not limited to, prepayment or acceleration of the maturity of any Obligation), shall the interest taken, reserved, contracted for, charged, or received under this Agreement, under the Notes or otherwise, exceed the maximum nonusurious amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any possible construction of any of the Credit Documents or any other document, interest would otherwise be payable in excess of the maximum nonusurious amount, any such construction shall be subject to the provisions of this paragraph and such interest shall be automatically reduced to the maximum nonusurious amount permitted under applicable law, without the necessity of execution of any amendment or new document. If any Lender shall ever receive anything of value which is characterized as interest on the Loans under applicable law and which would, apart from this provision, be in excess of the maximum nonusurious amount, an amount equal to the amount which would have been excessive interest shall, without penalty, be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing on the Loans and not to the payment of interest, or refunded to the Borrowers or the other payor thereof if and to the extent such amount which would have been excessive exceeds such unpaid principal amount of the Loans. The right to demand payment of the Loans or any other Indebtedness evidenced by any of the Credit Documents does not include the right to receive any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such demand, and the Lenders do not intend to charge or receive any unearned interest in the event of such demand. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders with respect to the Loans shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term (including any renewal or extension) of the Loans so that the amount of interest on account of such Indebtedness does not exceed the maximum nonusurious amount permitted by applicable law.

2.11 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a) Allocation of Payments Prior to Exercise of Remedies. Each borrowing of Loans and any reduction of the Commitments shall be made pro rata according to the respective Ratable Shares of the Lenders. Each payment under this Agreement shall be applied (i) first, to any Fees then due and owing, (ii) second, to interest then due and owing hereunder and (iii) third, to principal then due and owing hereunder. Each payment on account of the Commitment Fees or the L/C Fees shall be made pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts due and owing. Each payment (other than voluntary repayments or prepayments and mandatory prepayments) by the Borrowers on account of principal of and interest on the Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective amounts due and owing hereunder. Each voluntary repayment and mandatory prepayment on account of principal of the Loans shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.7. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers on account of principal, interest and fees shall be made without defense, set-off or counterclaim (except as provided in Section 2.17(b)) and shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders at the Administrative Agent’s office specified in Section 10.2 in Same Day Funds and (A) in the case of Loans or other amounts denominated in Dollars, shall be made in Dollars not later than 1:00 P.M. on the date when due and (B) in the case of Loans or other amounts denominated in a Foreign Currency, shall be made in such Foreign Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the date when due. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders entitled thereto promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the LIBOR Rate Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If any payment on a LIBOR Rate Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

(b) Allocation of Payments After Exercise of Remedies Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (i) after the exercise of remedies (other than the application of Default Interest) by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders pursuant to Section 7.2 or (ii) after the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts under the Credit Documents (including, without limitation, the maximum amount of all contingent liabilities under Letters of Credit) shall automatically become due and payable in accordance with the terms of such Section, then all amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent or any Lender on account of the Credit Party Obligations or any other amounts outstanding and owing by a Credit Party or any Subsidiary under any of the Credit Documents or in respect of the Collateral shall be paid over or delivered as follows (irrespective of whether the following costs, expenses, fees, interest, premiums, scheduled periodic payments or Credit Party Obligations are allowed, permitted or recognized as a claim in any proceeding resulting from the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event):

FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Lenders under the Credit Documents and any protective advances made by the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral under or pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents;

SECOND, to the payment of any fees owed to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender;

THIRD, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) of each of the Lenders in connection with enforcing its rights under the Credit Documents or otherwise with respect to the Credit Party Obligations owing to such Lender;

FOURTH, to the payment of all of the Credit Party Obligations consisting of accrued fees and interest, and including, with respect to any Secured Hedging Agreement, any fees, premiums and scheduled periodic payments due under such Secured Hedging Agreement and any interest accrued thereon;

FIFTH, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Credit Party Obligations (including, without limitation, the payment or Cash Collateralization of the outstanding L/C Obligations, and including with respect to any Secured Hedging Agreement, any breakage, termination or other payments due under such Secured Hedging Agreement and any interest accrued thereon);

SIXTH, to all other Credit Party Obligations and other obligations which shall have become due and payable under the Credit Documents or otherwise and not repaid pursuant to clauses “FIRST” through “FIFTH” above; and

SEVENTH, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

In carrying out the foregoing, (a) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category, (b) each of the Lenders and/or Hedging Agreement Providers shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share (based on the proportion that the then outstanding Loans and L/C Obligations held by such Lender or the outstanding obligations payable to such Hedging Agreement Provider bears to the aggregate then outstanding Loans, L/C Obligations and obligations payable under all Secured Hedging Agreements) of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses “THIRD”, “FOURTH”, “FIFTH” and “SIXTH” above and (c) to the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause “FIFTH” above are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit, such amounts shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a Cash Collateral account and applied (i) first, to reimburse the Issuing Lender from time to time for any drawings under such Letters of Credit and (ii) then, following the expiration of all Letters of Credit, to all other obligations of the types described in clauses “FIFTH” and “SIXTH” above in the manner provided in this Section. Notwithstanding the foregoing terms of this Section, (A) only Collateral proceeds and payments under the Guaranty (as opposed to ordinary course principal, interest and fee payments hereunder) shall be applied to obligations under any Secured Hedging Agreement and (B) no Foreign Credit Party shall be required to repay or prepay, or to guarantee, nor shall any amount paid by any Foreign Guarantor be applied to, the Credit Party Obligations of any Domestic Credit Party.

(c) Application of Intercreditor Agreement. Any application of a payment or prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

2.12 Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent.

(a) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Extension of Credit that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Extension of Credit, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with this Agreement and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Extension of Credit available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and each of the Borrowers severally agrees to immediately pay to the Administrative Agent on demand such corresponding amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Overnight Rate and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Alternate Base Rate Loans. If any Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Extension of Credit to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Extension of Credit. Any payment by any Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim any Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(b) Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Company prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, 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 Overnight Rate. Each Lender or Issuing Lender making the payment to the Administrative Agent described in the preceding sentence shall be entitled to all interest accrued on the amounts owed by the Borrowers related thereto at the applicable interest rate set forth in this Agreement. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Company with respect to any amount owing under subsections (a) and (b) of this Section shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Section 2, and such funds are not made available to such Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Extension of Credit set forth in Section 4 are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms thereof, the Administrative Agent shall promptly return such funds by the next Business Day (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Revolving Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.5(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any such payment under Section 10.5(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.5(c).

(e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

2.13 Inability to Determine Interest Rate.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if (a) the Administrative Agent shall reasonably determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period, or (b) the Required Lenders shall reasonably determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the LIBOR Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding LIBOR Rate Loans that the Borrowers have requested be outstanding as a LIBOR Tranche during such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give telephone notice of such determination, confirmed in writing, to the Company, and the Lenders at least two (2) Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period. Unless the Company shall have notified the Administrative Agent upon receipt of such telephone notice that it wishes to rescind or modify its request regarding such LIBOR Rate Loans, any Loans that were requested to be made as LIBOR Rate Loans shall be made as Alternate Base Rate Loans and any Loans that were requested to be converted into or continued as LIBOR Rate Loans shall remain as or be converted into Alternate Base Rate Loans. Until any such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Loans shall be made as, continued as, or converted into, LIBOR Rate Loans for the Interest Periods so affected.

2.14 Illegality.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if (i) the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by the relevant Governmental Authority to any Lender shall make it unlawful for such Lender or its LIBOR Lending Office to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans as contemplated by this Agreement or to obtain in the interbank eurodollar market through its LIBOR Lending Office the funds with which to make such Loans, or (ii) there shall have occurred any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions (including the imposition of or any change in exchange controls) or currency exchange rates which would make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to make Loans denominated in any Foreign Currency to any Borrower, as contemplated by this Agreement, then such Lender shall be an “Affected Lender” and by written notice to the Company and to the Administrative Agent:

(A) such Lender may declare that LIBOR Rate Loans (in the affected currency or currencies) will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness or impossibility) be made by such Lender hereunder, whereupon any request for a LIBOR Rate Loan (in the affected currency or currencies) shall, as to such Lender only (I) if such Loan is not an Loan denominated in a Foreign Currency, be deemed a request for an Alternate Base Rate Loan (unless it should also be illegal for the Affected Lender to provide an Alternate Base Rate Loan, in which case such Loan shall bear interest at a commensurate rate to be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Affected Lender, and so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn and (II) if such Loan is an Loan denominated in a Foreign Currency, be deemed to have been withdrawn; and

(B) such Lender may require that all outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans or Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency (in the affected currency or currencies), as the case may be, made by it be (I) if such Loans are not Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency Loan, converted to Alternate Base Rate Loans, in which event all such LIBOR Rate Loans shall be automatically converted to Alternate Base Rate Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) below or (II) if such Loans are Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency, repaid immediately, in which event all such Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency (in the affected currency or currencies) shall be required to be repaid in full by the applicable Borrower as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) below.

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under (A) or (B) above with respect to any Loans which are not Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency, all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise have been applied to repay the LIBOR Rate Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the Alternate Base Rate Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion, of such LIBOR Rate Loans.

(b) For purposes of this Section, a notice to the Company by any Lender shall be effective as to each such Loan, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period currently applicable to such Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by the Company.

2.15 Requirements of Law.

(a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof:

(i) shall subject such Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender);

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of the LIBOR Rate hereunder;

(iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition; or

(iv) shall result in the failure of the Mandatory Cost Rate to represent the cost to any Lender of complying with the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank in relation to its making, funding or maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder or under any Note, then, in any such case, the Borrowers shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable which such Lender reasonably deems to be material as determined by such Lender with respect to its LIBOR Rate Loans. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Company shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (including reasonable efforts to change its LIBOR Lending Office, as the case may be) to avoid or to minimize any amounts which might otherwise be payable pursuant to this paragraph of this Section; provided, however, that such efforts shall not cause the imposition on such Lender of any additional costs or legal or regulatory burdens deemed by such Lender in its sole discretion to be material.

(b) If any Lender shall have reasonably determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender in its sole discretion to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount as shall be certified by such Lender as being required to compensate it for such reduction. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable under this Section submitted by a Lender (which certificate shall include a description of the basis for the computation), through the Administrative Agent, to the Company shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(c) The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.16 Indemnity.

The Credit Parties hereby agree to indemnify each Lender and to hold such Lender harmless from any funding loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) the failure by any Borrower to pay the principal amount of or interest on any Loan by such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, (b) the failure by any Borrower to accept a borrowing after such Borrower has given a notice in accordance with the terms hereof, (c) default by any Borrower in making any prepayment after such Borrower has given a notice in accordance with the terms hereof, and/or (d) the making by any Borrower of a prepayment of a Loan, or the conversion thereof, on a day which is not the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto, in each case including, but not limited to, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain its Loans hereunder. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Company (which certificate must be delivered to the Administrative Agent within thirty days following such default, prepayment or conversion) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The agreements in this Section shall survive termination of this Agreement and payment of the Credit Party Obligations.

2.17 Taxes.

(a) All payments made by any Borrower hereunder or under any Note will be, except as provided in Section 2.17(b), made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any Governmental Authority or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein with respect to such payments (but excluding any tax imposed on or measured by the net income or profits of a Lender pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized or the jurisdiction in which the principal office or applicable lending office of such Lender is located or any subdivision thereof or therein) and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect thereto (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges being referred to collectively as “Taxes”). If any Taxes are so levied or imposed, the Borrowers agree to pay the full amount of such Taxes, and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment of all amounts due under this Agreement or under any Note, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for herein or in such Note. The Company will furnish to the Administrative Agent as soon as practicable after the date the payment of any Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law certified copies (to the extent reasonably available and required by law) of tax receipts evidencing such payment by the applicable Borrower. The Borrowers agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, and reimburse such Lender upon its written request, for the amount of any Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such Lender.

(b) Each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) agrees to deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing Date, or in the case of a Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.6 (unless the respective Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or transfer), on the date of such assignment or transfer to such Lender, (i) if the Lender is a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or successor forms) certifying such Lender’s entitlement to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and under any Note, or (ii) if the Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, either Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI as set forth in clause (i) above, or (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Schedule 2.17 (any such certificate, a “2.17 Certificate”) and (y) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 (or successor form) certifying such Lender’s entitlement to an exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments of interest to be made under this Agreement and under any Note. In addition, each Lender agrees that it will deliver upon the Company’s request updated versions of the foregoing, as applicable, whenever the previous certification has become obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, together with such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender to a continued exemption from or reduction in United States withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Note. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.17(a), but subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, (x) the Borrowers shall be entitled, to the extent required to do so by law, to deduct or withhold Taxes imposed by the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) from interest, fees or other amounts payable hereunder for the account of any Lender which is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. Federal income tax purposes to the extent that such Lender has not provided to the Company U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms that establish a complete exemption from such deduction or withholding and (y) the Borrowers shall not be obligated pursuant to Section 2.17(a) hereof to gross-up payments to be made to a Lender in respect of Taxes imposed by the United States if (I) such Lender has not provided to the Company the Internal Revenue Service Forms required to be provided to the Company pursuant to this Section or (II) in the case of a payment, other than interest, to a Lender described in clause (ii) above, to the extent that such Forms do not establish a complete exemption from withholding of such Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the preceding sentence or elsewhere in this Section, the Borrowers agree to pay additional amounts and to indemnify each Lender in the manner set forth in Section 2.17(a) (without regard to the identity of the jurisdiction requiring the deduction or withholding) in respect of any amounts deducted or withheld by it as described in the immediately preceding sentence as a result of any changes after the Closing Date in any applicable law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof, relating to the deducting or withholding of Taxes.

Without limiting the obligations of the Lenders set forth above regarding delivery of certain forms and documents to establish each Lender’s status for U.S. withholding tax purposes, each Lender agrees promptly to deliver to the Administrative Agent or the Company, as the Administrative Agent or the Company shall reasonably request, on or prior to the Closing Date, and in a timely fashion thereafter, such other documents and forms required by any relevant taxing authorities under the Requirements of Law of any other jurisdiction, duly executed and completed by such Lender, as are required under such Requirements of Law and which such Lender is able to lawfully complete and deliver, to confirm such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender outside of the U.S. by the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in such other jurisdiction. Each Lender shall promptly (i) notify the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any such claimed exemption or reduction, and (ii) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the sole judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its LIBOR Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Requirements of Law of any such jurisdiction that any Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Lender. Additionally, each of the Borrowers shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall reasonably request, on or prior to the Closing Date, and in a timely fashion thereafter, such documents and forms required by any relevant taxing authorities under the Requirements of Law of any jurisdiction, duly executed and completed by such Borrower, as are required to be furnished by such Lender or the Administrative Agent under such Requirements of Law in connection with any payment by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of Taxes or other Taxes, or otherwise in connection with the Credit Documents, with respect to such jurisdiction.

(c) Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (including reasonable efforts to change its LIBOR Lending Office, as the case may be) to avoid or to minimize any amounts which might otherwise be payable pursuant to this Section; provided, however, that such efforts shall not cause the imposition on such Lender of any additional costs or legal or regulatory burdens deemed by such Lender in its sole discretion to be material. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender lending to the Japanese Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to lend such funds through a lending office located in Japan, the United States or such other jurisdiction which would minimize any amounts which might otherwise be payable pursuant to this Section.

(d) If any Borrower pays any additional amount pursuant to this Section with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to obtain a refund of tax or credit against its tax liabilities on account of such payment; provided that such Lender shall have no obligation to use such reasonable efforts if either (i) it is in an excess foreign tax credit position or (ii) it believes in good faith, in its sole discretion, that claiming a refund or credit would cause adverse tax consequences to it. In the event that such Lender receives such a refund or credit, such Lender shall pay to the applicable Borrower an amount that such Lender reasonably determines is equal to the net tax benefit obtained by such Lender as a result of such payment by the applicable Borrower. In the event that no refund or credit is obtained with respect to the applicable Borrower’s payments to such Lender pursuant to this Section, then such Lender shall upon request provide a certification that such Lender has not received a refund or credit for such payments. Nothing contained in this Section shall require a Lender to disclose or detail the basis of its calculation of the amount of any tax benefit or any other amount or the basis of its determination referred to in the proviso to the first sentence of this Section 2.17 to any Borrower or any other party.

(e) The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.18 Indemnification; Nature of Issuing Lender’s Duties.

(a) In addition to its other obligations under Section 2.3, the Credit Parties hereby agree to protect, indemnify, pay and save the Issuing Lender and each Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that the Issuing Lender or such Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit, except to the extent resulting from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender or (ii) the failure of the Issuing Lender to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority (all such acts or omissions, herein called “Government Acts”).

(b) As between the Credit Parties, the Issuing Lender and each Lender, the Credit Parties shall assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. Neither the Issuing Lender nor any Lender shall be responsible: (i) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, that may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) for failure of the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon a Letter of Credit; (iv) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) for errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; and (vii) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Lender or any Lender, including, without limitation, any Government Acts. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of the Issuing Lender’s rights or powers hereunder.

(c) In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender or any Lender, under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related certificates, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not put the Issuing Lender or such Lender under any resulting liability to the Credit Parties. It is the intention of the parties that this Agreement shall be construed and applied to protect and indemnify the Issuing Lender and each Lender against any and all risks involved in the issuance of the Letters of Credit, all of which risks are hereby assumed by the Credit Parties, including, without limitation, any and all risks of the acts or omissions, whether rightful or wrongful, of any Government Authority. The Issuing Lender and the Lenders shall not, in any way, be liable for any failure by the Issuing Lender or anyone else to pay any drawing under any Letter of Credit as a result of any Government Acts or any other cause beyond the control of the Issuing Lender and the Lenders.

(d) Nothing in this Section is intended to limit the Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrowers contained in Section 2.3(d) hereof. The obligations of the Credit Parties under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement. No act or omissions of any current or prior beneficiary of a Letter of Credit shall in any way affect or impair the rights of the Issuing Lender and the Lenders to enforce any right, power or benefit under this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, the Credit Parties shall have no obligation to indemnify the Issuing Lender or any Lender in respect of any liability incurred by the Issuing Lender or such Lender arising out of the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender (including action not taken by the Issuing Lender or such Lender), as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or pursuant to arbitration.

2.19 Replacement of Lenders.

The Company shall be permitted to replace with a financial institution acceptable to the Administrative Agent any Lender (other than ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo) that (a) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to 2.14, 2.16 or 2.17(a) or (b) is a Defaulting Lender; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) prior to any such replacement, such Lender shall have taken no action under Section 2.14, 2.16 or 2.17(a), as applicable, so as to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.14, 2.16 or 2.17(a), (iv) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (v) the Company shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.16 if any LIBOR Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (vi) the replacement financial institution, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vii) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6 (provided that the Company shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein), (viii) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Company shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.14, 2.16 or 2.17(a), as the case may be, and (ix) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Company, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. In the event any replaced Lender fails to execute the agreements required under Section 10.6 in connection with an assignment pursuant to this Section, the Company may, upon two (2) Business Days’ prior notice to such replaced Lender, execute such agreements on behalf of such replaced Lender. A Lender shall not be required to be replaced if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such replacement cease to apply.

2.20 Additional Foreign Borrowers.

The Company may request that any of its Foreign Guarantors (each, an “Applicant Foreign Borrower”) be designated a Foreign Borrower by delivery of a written request to the Administrative Agent, together with an executed copy of a Foreign Borrower Joinder Agreement. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such request and will provide the Lenders with a copy of such Foreign Borrower Joinder Agreement. Designation of any Applicant Foreign Borrower as a Foreign Borrower is subject to (a) delivery of each executed promissory note as may be requested by any Lender in connection therewith, (b) delivery of supporting resolutions, articles of incorporation and bylaws (or their equivalents), incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and such other items as the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, as applicable, may request and (c) the approval of such designation by each of the Lenders that will be required to make Loans to such Applicant Foreign Borrower (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that if any Lender is legally unable to make Loans to such Applicant Foreign Borrower or to make Loans in the jurisdiction in which such Applicant Foreign Borrower is organized, the Lenders and the Credit Parties shall in good faith negotiate the terms of and enter into an amendment to this Agreement to permit such Applicant Foreign Borrower to borrow Loans hereunder from those Lenders that are legally able to make such Loans. The designation of an Applicant Foreign Borrower as a Foreign Borrower shall be effective ten Business Days after the receipt by the Administrative Agent of each of the items required pursuant to clauses (a) through (c) herein. Such Applicant Foreign Borrower shall thereupon become a Foreign Borrower and shall be (1) entitled to all rights and benefits of a Foreign Borrower hereunder and under each of the Credit Documents and (2) subject to all obligations of a Foreign Borrower hereunder and under the Credit Documents.

2.21 Parallel Debt.

Subject to Section 10.24(b):

(a) Each Domestic Credit Party and each Foreign Credit Party must pay the Administrative Agent, as an independent and separate creditor, an amount equal to the Domestic Obligations or the Foreign Obligations, respectively, on its due date (each an “Administrative Agent Claim”).

(b) Each Administrative Agent Claim is created on the understanding that the Administrative Agent must:

(i) share the proceeds of each Administrative Agent Claim with the other Secured Parties; and

(ii) pay those proceeds to the Secured Parties in accordance with Section 2.11.

(c) To the extent possible under any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may enforce performance of any Administrative Agent Claim in its own name as an independent and separate right. This includes any suit, execution, enforcement of security, recovery of guarantees and applications for and voting in respect of any kind of insolvency proceeding.

(d) Each Secured Party must, at the request of the Administrative Agent, perform any act reasonably required in connection with the enforcement of any Administrative Agent Claim. This includes joining in any proceedings as co-claimant with the Administrative Agent.

(e) If the Administrative Agent fails to enforce an Administrative Agent Claim within a reasonable time after its due date, a Secured Party may take any action to enforce the corresponding Secured Party Claim.

(f) Each Credit Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to require a Secured Party to join in any proceedings as co-claimant with the Administrative Agent in respect of any Administrative Agent Claim.

(g) Discharge by a Credit Party of a Secured Party Claim will discharge the corresponding Administrative Agent Claim in the same amount.

(h) Discharge by a Credit Party of a Administrative Agent Claim will discharge the corresponding Secured Party Claim in the same amount.

(i) The aggregate amount of the Administrative Agent Claims will never exceed the aggregate amount of Secured Party Claims.

(j) (i) A defect affecting an Administrative Agent Claim against a Credit Party will not affect any Secured Party Claim.

(ii) A defect affecting a Secured Party Claim against a Credit Party will not affect any Administrative Agent Claim.

(k) If the Administrative Agent returns to any Credit Party, whether in any kind of insolvency proceedings or otherwise, any recovery in respect of which it has made a payment to a Secured Party, that Secured Party must repay an amount equal to that recovery to the Administrative Agent.

2.22 Lender Agreement.

Each Lender severally agrees, and by making any advance hereunder shall be deemed severally to represent, that: (a) none of the funds made available by such Lender with respect to any Revolving Loan constitute “plan assets” within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101 and (b) under Applicable Law in effect as of the Closing Date, it has the full power and authority to make Loans and other Extensions of Credit into the jurisdictions and in the currencies made available for such Revolving Loans. If the representation set forth in clause (b) above at any time proves to be false as of the Closing Date for any Lender, then such Lender will, at no expense to the Credit Parties and prior to such Lender becoming a Defaulting Lender hereunder, (i) promptly give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Company, and (ii) either obtain a replacement commitment from an Eligible Assignee pursuant to Section 10.6 that is authorized to lend in all such jurisdictions and Optional Currencies or arrange for another Lender or other financial institution to make or continue Loans on behalf of such Lender, in each case reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Administrative Agent. The remedy set forth in Section 2.19 shall be the Credit Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy for any Lender’s breach of the representation set forth in clause (b) above.

2.23 Obligations of Borrowers.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or in the other Credit Documents to the contrary (including, without limitation, Section 2.7, Section 2.11 and Section 9), the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (a) each of the Foreign Borrowers, in its capacity as a Borrower hereunder, is not jointly and severally liable for the Credit Party Obligations of the Company; provided that it is acknowledged and agreed that the Company has guaranteed the Credit Party Obligations of the Foreign Borrowers pursuant to Section 9 and that the Foreign Borrowers have not guaranteed the Credit Party Obligations of the Company and (b) no Foreign Borrower or Foreign Guarantor shall be required to repay or prepay, or to guarantee, nor shall any amount paid by any Foreign Borrower or any Foreign Guarantor be applied to, any Credit Party Obligations of the Company.

2.24 Cash Collateral.

At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, and to the extent such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations and its Swingline Exposure cannot be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares as provided in Section 2.25(a)(iv) below, then within three (3) Business Days following the request of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, the Company shall deliver Cash Collateral to the Administrative Agent in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.25 and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender).

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

(b) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section or Section 2.25 in respect of Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans, shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, Swingline Loans, Participation Interests therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(c) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee)), or (ii) the Issuing Lender’s or Swingline Lender’s, as applicable, good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (A) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Credit Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 2.11), and (B) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

2.25 Defaulting Lenders.

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

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders and Section 10.1.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, Fees (to the extent payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.25(a)(iii)) or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 7 or otherwise) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender hereunder; second, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender in respect of any Participation Interest in any Swingline Loan or Letter of Credit; third, as the Company may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fourth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Company, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans and other amounts under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Company as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Company against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and seventh, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Obligations in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its Ratable Share, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Obligations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii)

Defaulting Lender Fees.

(A) Commitment Fees. A Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which it is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such Commitment Fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender), except that such Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive a Commitment Fee with respect to the sum of (1) the outstanding amount of the Loans theretofore funded by such Defaulting Lender, and (2) such Defaulting Lender’s Ratable Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.24 and Section 2.25.

(B) L/C Fees. A Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any L/C Fee for any period during which it is a Defaulting Lender, except that a Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive a L/C Fee with respect to each Letter of Credit or portion thereof for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.22 and Section 2.24. With respect to any L/C Fee that a Defaulting Lender is not entitled to receive in accordance with the terms of this Section, such L/C Fee shall be paid to the non-Defaulting Lenders to the extent such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations have been reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with clause (iv) below; provided that if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations have not been reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders and have not been Cash Collateralized by the Defaulting Lender (the “Exposed L/C Obligations”), the L/C Fees corresponding to the Exposed L/C Obligations (1) shall not be payable by the Borrower to the extent the Borrower has Cash Collateralized such Exposed L/C Obligations and (2) shall be payable to the Issuing Lender to the extent the Borrower has not Cash Collateralized such Exposed L/C Obligations.

(iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations and its Swingline Exposure shall automatically (effective on the day such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Committed Funded Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment.

(v) Cash Collateral. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Company shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, immediately following notice by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations and its Swingline Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (iv) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.24 for so long as such L/C Obligations or Swingline Exposure are outstanding.

111

9.3 Reinstatement.

Neither the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder nor any remedy for the enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, changed or released in any manner whatsoever by an impairment, modification, change, release or limitation of the liability of the Borrowers, by reason of any Borrowers’ bankruptcy or insolvency or by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of all or any portion of the Credit Party Obligations. In addition:

(a) The obligations of each Domestic Guarantor under this Section shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the Credit Party Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Credit Party Obligations, whether as a result of any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, and each Domestic Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify each Administrative Agent and each holder of the Credit Party Obligations on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by any Administrative Agent or such holder of the Credit Party Obligations in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any Debtor Relief Law.

9.4 Certain Waivers.

Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (a) the guaranty given hereby may be enforced without the necessity of resorting to or otherwise exhausting remedies in respect of any other security or Collateral interests, and without the necessity at any time of having to take recourse against the Borrowers hereunder or against any Collateral securing the Credit Party Obligations or otherwise, (b) it will not assert any right to require the action first be taken against the Borrowers or any other Person (including any other Guarantor) or pursuit of any other remedy or enforcement any other right, (c) it will not assert any defenses (i) with respect to any change in the corporate existence or structure of any Borrower, (ii) with respect to any Law of any jurisdiction or any event affecting any term of the obligations of each Guarantor under this Section or (iii) as a result or related to any other circumstance that might constitute a defense of any Borrower or any Guarantor, (d) it will not assert any claims or set-off rights that such Guarantor may have, (e) nothing contained herein shall prevent or limit action being taken against the Borrowers hereunder, under the other Credit Documents or the other documents and agreements relating to the Credit Party Obligations or from foreclosing on any security or Collateral interests relating hereto or thereto, or from exercising any other rights or remedies available in respect thereof, if neither the Borrowers nor the Guarantors shall timely perform their obligations, and the exercise of any such rights and completion of any such foreclosure proceedings shall not constitute a discharge of the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder unless as a result thereof, the Credit Party Obligations shall have been paid in full and the commitments relating thereto shall have expired or terminated, it being the purpose and intent that the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder be absolute, irrevocable, independent and unconditional under all circumstances and (f) it will not seek, and hereby waives any right, to have the Collateral or any part thereof marshaled upon any foreclosure or other disposition of the Collateral.

114

(A) the German GmbH Guarantor’s, or in the case of the German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor its general partner’s, assets (the calculation of which shall take into account the captions reflected in § 266 (2) A, B and C of the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch)) less the German GmbH Guarantor’s, or in case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor its general partner’s, liabilities, provisions and liability reserves (the calculation of which shall take into account the captions reflected in § 266 (3) B, C and D of the German Commercial Code) (the “Net Assets”) to be less than the registered share capital (Stammkapital) of the German GmbH Guarantor, or in the case of a German GmbH & Co.

(iii) In addition, any German Guarantor and in the case of a German GmbH &Co. KG Guarantor, also its general partner, shall realize, to the extent legally permitted and commercially justifiable with regard to costs and efforts involved, in a situation where after enforcement of the Guaranty the German GmbH Guarantor, or in the case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor its general partner, would not have Net Assets in excess of its respective registered share capital, any and all of its assets that are shown in the respective balance sheet with a book value (Buchwert) that is significantly lower than the market value of the asset if such asset is not necessary for the relevant German Guarantor’s business (betriebsnotwendig).

(iv) The limitations set out in this Section 9.8(c) shall not apply to a Guaranty granted by the relevant German Guarantor in relation to any amounts borrowed under any Credit Document to the extent the proceeds of such borrowing are on-lent to it or any of its Subsidiaries from time to time and have not been repaid.

115

(v) The limitations on the enforcement of a Guaranty provided for in this Section 9.8(c) shall not apply in respect of performances (Leistungen) by the relevant German Guarantor if (a) (I) a profit and loss sharing agreement (Gewinnabführungsvertrag) or a domination agreement (Beherrschungsvertrag) is in place (Section 30 (1) second sentence, 1st alternative German Act on Limited Liabilities Companies), (II) such performances are covered by a valuable consideration or recourse claim (vollwertiger Gegenleistungs- oder Rückgewähranspruch) against the German Guarantor’s shareholder or, in the case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner’s shareholder (Section 30 (1) second sentence, 2nd alternative German Act on Limited Liabilities Companies), or (b) the relevant German Guarantor’s payment discharges a shareholder loan or a claim of similar effect (Section 30 (1) third sentence German Act on Limited Liabilities Companies).

(vi) For the avoidance of doubt, any balance sheet to be prepared for the determination of the Net Assets shall be prepared in accordance with relevant accounting principles.

(vii) Nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted as a restriction or limitation of the enforcement of this Guaranty if and to the extent the Guaranty secures own obligations of the relevant German Guarantor or obligations of any of its direct or indirect Subsidiaries including in each case their legal successors.

(viii) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Section 9.8(c), the limitation set out in Section 9.8(c)(i) shall not apply if and to the extent an enforcement of the Guaranty provided by a German Guarantor would not constitute a breach of the rules set out in sections 30 et seq. of the German Act on Limited Liabilities Companies (GmbHG), each as applicable, amended or re-enacted into any other provision of German law from time to time.

(ix) The limitations of the enforcement of the Guaranty of a German Guarantor set out in this Subsection shall apply mutatis mutandis to any claim made against a German Guarantor under Sections 2.21 (Parallel Debt) and 2.16 (Indemnities).

(x) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event the enforcement of the Guaranty hereunder against a German Guarantor would (A) result in such German Guarantor ceasing to be able to pay its debts as they fall due (Zahlungsunfähigkeit) and (B) cause any managing director of such German Guarantor to be personally liable for any payment made under such Guaranty, in each case within the meaning of Section 64, sentence 3, of the German Limited Liabilities Act, the aggregate obligations of such German Guarantor, when considered together with the obligations (without duplication) of all German Guarantors, shall not exceed $50,000,000 (or the Foreign Currency Equivalent thereof).

116

(ix) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 8 without the written consent of the then Administrative Agent; or

(x) amend, modify or waive the order in which Credit Party Obligations are paid or in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments by and among the Lenders without the written consent of each Lender and each Hedging Agreement Provider directly affected thereby;

provided, further, that no amendment, waiver or consent affecting the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender under any Credit Document shall in any event be effective, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Lender and/or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action.

Any such waiver, any such amendment, supplement or modification and any such release shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Company, the Lenders, the other Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Notes. In the case of any waiver, the Company, the other Credit Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the outstanding Loans and Notes and other Credit Documents, and any Default or Event of Default permanently waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, the consent of the Company shall not be required for any amendment, modification or waiver of the provisions of Section 8 (other than the provisions of Section 8.9); provided, however, that the Administrative Agent will provide written notice to the Company of any such amendment, modification or waiver. In addition, the Company and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to modify this Agreement by unilaterally amending or supplementing Schedule 2.1(a) from time to time in the manner requested by the Company, the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order to reflect any assignments or transfers of the Loans as provided for hereunder; provided further, however, that the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy of any such modification to the Company and each Lender.

118

Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above, (A) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersedes the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein, (B) the Required Lenders may consent to allow a Credit Party to use cash collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, and (C) no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except (x) that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) to the extent such amendment, waiver or consent is of the type contemplated by clauses (i)-(x) above and such Defaulting Lender is adversely impacted by such amendment, waiver or consent more than the other Lenders.

The Intercreditor Agreement may not be amended, supplemented, waived or modified (I) except in accordance with the provisions of Section 9(b) of the Intercreditor Agreement, (II) without the Company’s prior written consent if such amendment, supplement, waiver or modification would change (A) the definition of Trigger Event set forth in Section 1 of the Intercreditor Agreement; provided that the consent of the Company shall not be required for any such change to the definition of Trigger Event after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (B) Section 2(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement if such change could be reasonably expected to result in adverse tax consequences to the Company, (C) the Company’s consultation rights set forth in Section 8(e)(i) of the Intercreditor Agreement or (D) Section 8(g) of the Intercreditor Agreement and (III) without the written consent of all of the Lenders to the extent such amendment, supplement, waiver or modification would release all or substantially all of the Collateral; provided that the Collateral Agent may release any Collateral permitted to be released pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Security Documents as of the Closing Date. Prior the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent (or the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Administrative Agent) shall notify the Company in writing prior to entering into any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to the Intercreditor Agreement that would materially and adversely affect the Company. Any such amendment, supplement, waiver or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Notes.

The Company shall be permitted to replace with a replacement financial institution acceptable to the Administrative Agent any Lender (other than ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo) that fails to consent to any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof or of any other Credit Document that requires the unanimous approval of all of the Lenders, the approval of all of the Lenders affected thereby or the approval of a class of Lenders, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Section, so long as the consent of the Required Lenders shall have been obtained with respect to such amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent; provided that (1) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (2) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (3) the replacement financial institution shall approve the proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent, (4) the Company shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.16 if any LIBOR Rate Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (5) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6 (provided that the Company shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein), (6) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Company shall pay to the replaced Lender all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.14, 2.16 or 2.17(a), as the case may be, (7) the Company provides at least three (3) Business Days’ prior notice to such replaced Lender, and (8) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Company, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. In the event any replaced Lender fails to execute the agreements required under Section 10.6 in connection with an assignment pursuant to this Section, the Company may, upon two (2) Business Days’ prior notice to such replaced Lender, execute such agreements on behalf of such replaced Lender. A Lender shall not be required to be replaced if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such replacement cease to apply.

10.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

10.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties.

All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes and the making of the Loans; provided that all such representations and warranties shall terminate on the date upon which the Commitments have been terminated and all Credit Party Obligations have been paid in full.

10.5 Payment of Expenses and Taxes; Indemnity.

(a) Costs and Expenses. The Credit Parties shall pay or reimburse (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Syndication Agent and their respective Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Syndication Agent) in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, or incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and their respective Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent) in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (in each case whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or Swingline Loan or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Syndication Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Syndication Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

122

(b) Indemnification by the Credit Parties. The Credit Parties shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), the Collateral Agent, the Syndication Agent, each Lender, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender, 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 losses, claims, penalties, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by any Borrower or any other Credit Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Materials of Environmental Concern on or from any property owned or operated by any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries, or any liability under Environmental Law related in any way to any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Borrower or any other Credit Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such 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 and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

(c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Credit Parties for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Lender, Swingline Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Lender, Swingline Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Ratable Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, 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 (or any such sub-agent), the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender in connection with such capacity.

123

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Credit Parties 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, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in paragraph (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent resulting from such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly/not later than five (5) days after demand therefor.

(f) Survival. The agreements contained in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Issuing Lender, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of the Credit Party Obligations.

10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations; Purchasing Lenders.

(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 no Borrower nor any other Credit Party may 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 paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (f) of this Section (and 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 paragraph (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

124

(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 and the 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 and the Loans at the time owing to it 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 paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable 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 or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $2,500,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of any portion of the Revolving Facility (provided, however, that simultaneous assignments shall be aggregated in respect of a Lender and its Approved Funds), unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company 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 Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Tranches on a non-pro rata basis.

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

(A) the consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (z) the primary syndication of the Loans has not been completed as determined by ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo;

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of, if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Commitment in respect of such facility, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; and

125

(C) the consent of the Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of a Revolving Commitment.

(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 of $3,500, and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v) No Assignment to a Credit Party. No such assignment shall be made to any Credit Party or any Credit Party’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

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

(vii) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Company and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (A) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (B) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and Participation Interests in accordance with its Ratable Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (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 2.16 and 10.5 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph 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 paragraph (d) of this Section.

126

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Company, shall maintain at one of its offices in Charlotte, North Carolina 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 owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrowers, 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 Company and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice; provided that a Lender shall only be entitled to inspect its own entry in the Register and not that of any other Lender.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Company or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or any Credit Party or any Credit Party’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 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 Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender 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, modification or waiver that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (e) of this Section, each of the Borrowers agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.7 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.11 as though it were a Lender.

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.16 and 2.17 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 Company’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 Section 2.17 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.17 as though it were a Lender.

127

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to 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.

10.7 Adjustments; Set-off.

(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the Issuing Lender, and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, the Issuing Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Company or any other Credit Party against any and all of the obligations of the Company or such Credit Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Credit Document to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or the Issuing Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Credit Document and although such obligations of the Company or such Credit Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or the Issuing Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (i) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.25 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and (ii) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Credit Party Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, the Issuing Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the Issuing Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and the Issuing Lender agrees to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

(b) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (i) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (ii) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, 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 other amounts owing them, provided that:

128

(A) 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

(B) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (y) 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 Letters of Credit to any assignee or participant, other than to any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply) or (z) (1) any amounts applied by the Swingline Lender to outstanding Swingline Loans and (2) any amounts received by the Issuing Lender and/or Swingline Lender to secure the obligations of a Defaulting Lender to fund Participation Interests hereunder.

(c) Each Credit Party 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 each Credit Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Credit Party in the amount of such participation.

10.14 Confidentiality.

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below) and not disclose Information without the prior written consent of the Company, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder, under any other Credit Document or Secured Hedging Agreement or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement, any other Credit Document or Secured Hedging Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (g) (i) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrowers and their obligations, (ii) an investor or prospective investor in securities issued by an Approved Fund that also agrees that Information shall be used solely for the purpose of evaluating an investment in such securities issued by the Approved Fund, (iii) a trustee, collateral manager, servicer, backup servicer, noteholder or secured party in connection with the administration, servicing and reporting on the assets serving as collateral for securities issued by an Approved Fund, or (iv) a nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information regarding the Credit Parties, the Loans and Credit Documents in connection with ratings issued in respect of securities issued by an Approved Fund (in each case, it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential), (h) with the consent of the Company or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers.

131

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries relating to any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that, in the case of information received from any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

The obligation of any Credit Party in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender in the Agreement Currency, each Credit Party agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender in such currency, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Borrowers (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

SECTION 11

SPECIAL PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO LENDERS UPON

THE OCCURRENCE OF A SHARING EVENT

11.1 Participations.

Upon the occurrence of a Sharing Event, the Lenders shall automatically and without further action be deemed to have exchanged interests in the outstanding Loans and outstanding Letters of Credit such that, in lieu of the interests of each Lender in each Loan and each outstanding Letter of Credit, such Lender shall hold an interest in all Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans, made to the Borrowers and all outstanding Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Persons or their Subsidiaries at such time, whether or not such Lender shall previously have participated therein, equal to such Lender’s Exchange Percentage thereof. The foregoing exchanges shall be accomplished automatically pursuant to this Section through purchases and sales of participations in the various Loans and outstanding Letters of Credit as required hereby, although at the request of the Administrative Agent each Lender hereby agrees to enter into customary participation agreements approved by the Administrative Agent to evidence the same. All purchases and sales of participating interests pursuant to this Section shall be made in Dollars. At the request of the Administrative Agent, each Lender which has sold participations in any of its Loans and outstanding Letters of Credit as provided above (through the Administrative Agent) will deliver to each Lender (through the Administrative Agent) which has so purchased a participating interest therein a participation certificate in the appropriate amount as determined in conjunction with the Administrative Agent. It is understood that the amount of funds delivered by each Lender shall be calculated on a net basis, giving effect to both the sales and purchases of participations by the various Lenders as required above.

11.2 Administrative Agent’s Determination Binding.

All determinations by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 11 shall be made by it in accordance with the provisions herein and with the intent being to equitably share the credit risk for all Loans and Letters of Credit and other Extensions of Credit hereunder in accordance with the provisions hereof. Absent manifest error, all determinations by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be binding on the Credit Parties and each of the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any Credit Party or Lender hereunder for any determinations made by it hereunder except to the extent resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

11.3 Participation Payments in Dollars.

Upon, and after, the occurrence of a Sharing Event (a) no further Extensions of Credit shall be made, (b) all amounts from time to time accruing with respect to, and all amounts from time to time payable on account of, Loans denominated in Foreign Currencies (including, without limitation, any interest and other amounts which were accrued but unpaid on the date of such Sharing Event) shall be payable in Dollars (taking the Dollar Equivalent of such amounts on the date payment is made with respect thereto) and shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders which made such Loans or are participating therein and (c) all Commitments shall be automatically terminated. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, the failure of any Lender to purchase its participating interests as required above in any Extensions of Credit upon the occurrence of a Sharing Event shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to purchase its participating interests in a timely manner, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to purchase the participating interest to be purchased by such other Lender on any date.

138

11.4 Delinquent Participation Payments.

If any amount required to be paid by any Lender pursuant to this Section 11 is not paid to the Administrative Agent on the date upon which the Sharing Event occurred, such Lender shall, in addition to such aforementioned amount, also pay to the Administrative Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (a) the amount so required to be paid by such Lender for the purchase of its participations, (b) the Overnight Rate and (c) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapsed during such period and the denominator of which is 360. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts payable under this Section 11 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Amounts payable by any Lender pursuant to this Section 11 shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Lenders; provided that, if the Administrative Agent (in its sole discretion) has elected to fund on behalf of such other Lender the amounts owing to such other Lenders, then the amounts shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for its own account.

11.5 Settlement of Participation Payments.

Whenever, at any time after the relevant Lenders have received from any other Lenders purchases of participations pursuant to this Section 11 and the various Lenders receive any payment on account thereof, such Lenders will distribute to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the various Lenders participating therein, such Lenders’ participating interests in such amounts (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such participations were outstanding) in like funds as received; provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by any Lenders is required to be returned, the Lenders who received previous distributions in respect of their participating interests therein will return to the respective Lenders any portion thereof previously so distributed to them in like funds as such payment is required to be returned by the respective Lenders.

11.6 Participation Obligations Absolute.

Each Lender’s obligation to purchase participating interests pursuant to this Section 11 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance including, without limitation, (a) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against any other Lender, any Credit Party or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (b) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, (c) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Credit Party or any other Person, (i) any breach of this Agreement by any Credit Party, any Lender or any other Person, or (ii) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

139

11.7 Increased Cost; Indemnities.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, upon any purchase of participations as required above, (a) each Lender which has purchased such participations shall be entitled to receive from the Credit Parties any increased costs and indemnities (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.14, 2.16, 2.17, 2.18, 2.19 and 10.5) directly from the Credit Parties to the same extent as if it were the direct Lender as opposed to a participant therein and (b) each Lender which has sold such participations shall be entitled to receive from the Credit Parties indemnification from and against any and all Taxes imposed as a result of the sale of the participations pursuant to this Section 11. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that, upon the occurrence of a Sharing Event and after giving effect to the requirements of this Section 11, increased Taxes may be owing by it pursuant to Section 2.17, which Taxes shall be paid (to the extent provided in Section 2.17) by the respective Credit Party or Credit Parties, without any claim that the increased Taxes are not payable because some resulted from the participations effected as otherwise required by this Section 11.

11.8 Provisions Regarding Sharing Arrangement.

The provisions of this Section 11 are and are intended solely for the purpose of effecting a sharing arrangement among the Lenders and reflects an agreement among creditors. Except as contemplated by Sections 11.3 and 11.7, none of the Credit Parties shall have any rights or obligations under this Section 11. Nothing contained in this Section 11 is intended to or shall impair the obligations of the Credit Parties, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the Credit Party Obligations as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms.
