THE CREDITS

Section 2.01. Commitments To Lend. Each Bank severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make a term loan in Dollars to the Company on the Funding Date in a principal amount not to exceed such Bank’s Commitment, which Loans shall be repaid in accordance

14

with the provisions of this Agreement. Any amount borrowed under this Section 2.01 and subsequently repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. Each Bank’s Commitment shall terminate immediately and without further action on the Funding Date after giving effect to the funding by such Bank of the Loan to be made by it on such date.

Section 2.02. Notice of Borrowing. To request the Borrowing of Loans on the Funding Date the Company shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto (the “Notice of Borrowing”) not later than 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on (x) if the Borrowing is initially a Base Rate Borrowing, the Funding Date and (y) if the Borrowing is initially a Euro-Dollar Borrowing, the second Euro-Dollar Business Day before the Funding Date, specifying:

(a) the Funding Date, which shall be a Domestic Business Day in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing or a Euro-Dollar Business Day in the case of a Euro-Dollar Borrowing,

(b) the aggregate amount of the Borrowing,

(c) whether the Loans comprising the Borrowing are to bear interest initially at the Base Rate or a Euro-Dollar Rate,

(d) in the case of a Euro-Dollar Borrowing, the duration of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto, subject to the provisions of the definition of Interest Period; and

(e) the account of the Company to which the funds should be remitted.

Section 2.03. Notice to Banks; Funding of Loans.

(a) Upon receipt of the Notice of Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of the contents thereof and of such Bank’s share of the Borrowing and the Notice of Borrowing shall not thereafter be revocable by the Company.

(b) Not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the Funding Date, each Bank shall make available its share of the Borrowing, in Federal or other funds immediately available in New York City, to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.01. Unless the Administrative Agent determines that any applicable condition specified in Article 3 has not been satisfied, the Administrative Agent will make the funds so received from the Banks available to the Company by crediting the account of the Company designated by the Company in the Notice of Borrowing with such funds.

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank prior to the Funding Date (or, in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing, prior to 11:30 A.M. (New York City time) on the Funding Date) that such Bank will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Bank’s share of the Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made such share available to the Administrative Agent on the Funding Date in accordance with subsection (b) of this Section 2.03 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Bank shall not have so made such share available to the Administrative Agent, such Bank and the Company severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Company until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Company, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans and (ii) in the case of such Bank, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules

15

on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing. If such Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Bank’s Loan included in the Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. If the Company and such Bank shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Company the amount of such interest paid by the Company for such period. Any payment by the Company shall be without prejudice to any claim the Company may have against a Bank that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

Section 2.04. Evidence of Debt.

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

(b) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Company to each Bank hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Banks and each Bank’s share thereof.

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

(d) Any Bank may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Company shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Bank a promissory note payable to such Bank and its registered assigns and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and the Company. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.06(c)) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein and its registered assigns.

Section 2.05. Maturity of Loans. Each Loan shall mature, and the principal amount thereof shall be due and payable (together with interest accrued thereon) on the Maturity Date.

Section 2.06. Interest Rates.

(a) During such periods as each Loan is a Base Rate Loan, such Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate for such day plus the Base Rate Margin. Such interest shall be payable at maturity, quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and, with respect to the principal amount of any Base Rate Loan that is prepaid or converted to a Euro-Dollar Loan, on the date of such prepayment or conversion. Any overdue principal of or interest on any Base Rate Loan shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day.

16

(b) Each Euro-Dollar Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day during each Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Euro-Dollar Margin for such day plus the London Interbank Offered Rate applicable to such Interest Period. Such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period on the last day thereof and, if such Interest Period is longer than three months, at intervals of three months after the first day thereof.

(c) Any overdue principal of or interest on any Euro-Dollar Loan shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the Euro-Dollar Margin for such day plus the London Interbank Offered Rate applicable to the Interest Period for such Loan (or, if the circumstances described in Section 8.01 shall exist, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day).

(d) The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Loans hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Company and the Banks of each rate of interest so determined, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

Section 2.07. Method of Electing Interest Rates. (a) The Loans shall bear interest initially at the type of rate specified by the Company in the Notice of Borrowing. Thereafter, the Company may from time to time elect to change or continue the type of interest rate borne by each Type of Loans (subject to Section 2.07(d) and the provisions of Article 8), as follows:

(i) if such Loans are Base Rate Loans, the Company may elect to convert such Loans to Euro-Dollar Loans as of any Euro-Dollar Business Day; and

(ii) if such Loans are Euro-Dollar Loans, the Company may elect to convert such Loans to Base Rate Loans or continue such Loans as Euro-Dollar Loans for an additional Interest Period, in each case as of the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto.

Each such election shall be made by delivering a notice (a “Notice of Interest Rate Election”) to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 AM (New York City time) on the third Euro-Dollar Business Day before the conversion or continuation selected in such notice is to be effective. A Notice of Interest Rate Election may, if it so specifies, apply to only a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the relevant Type of Loans; provided that (i) such portion is allocated ratably among the Loans comprising such Type and (ii) the portion to which such Notice of Interest Rate Election applies, and the remaining portion to which it does not apply, are each at least $25,000,000 (unless such portion is comprised of Base Rate Loans). If no such notice is timely received before the end of an Interest Period for any Euro-Dollar Loans, the Company shall be deemed to have elected that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Type of Loans be continued as Base Rate Loans (subject to the provisions of the definition of Interest Period).

(b) Each Notice of Interest Rate Election shall specify:

(i) the Type of Loans (or portion thereof) to which such notice applies;

(ii) the date on which the conversion or continuation selected in such notice is to be effective, which shall comply with the applicable clause of Section 2.07(a);

(iii) if the Loans comprising such Type are to be converted, the new type of Loans and, if the Loans resulting from such conversion are to be Euro-Dollar Loans, the duration of the next succeeding Interest Period applicable thereto; and

17

(iv) if such Loans are to be continued as Euro-Dollar Loans for an additional Interest Period, the duration of such additional Interest Period.

Each Interest Period specified in a Notice of Interest Rate Election shall comply with the provisions of the definition of Interest Period.

(c) Promptly after receiving a Notice of Interest Rate Election from the Company pursuant to Section 2.07(a), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Bank of the contents thereof and such notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the Company.

(d) The Company shall not be entitled to elect to convert any Loans to, or continue any Loans for an additional Interest Period as, Euro-Dollar Loans if (i) the aggregate principal amount of any Euro-Dollar Loans created or continued as a result of such election would be less than $25,000,000 or (ii) a Default shall have occurred and be continuing when the Company delivers notice of such election to the Administrative Agent.

(e) If any Loan is converted to a different type of Loan, the Company shall pay, on the date of such conversion, the interest accrued to such date on the principal amount being converted.

Section 2.08. [Reserved.].

Section 2.09. Termination of Commitments. Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Funding Date (after giving effect to the Loans made on such date).

Section 2.10. Repayment of Loans. The Company shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Banks on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of the Loans then outstanding.

Section 2.11. Optional Prepayments. (a) Subject in the case of any Euro-Dollar Loans to Section 2.13, the Company may (i) upon at least one Domestic Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, prepay any Base Rate Loans or (ii) upon at least three Euro-Dollar Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, prepay any Euro-Dollar Loans, in each case in whole at any time, or from time to time in part in amounts aggregating $25,000,000 or any larger multiple of $1,000,000, by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment. Each such optional prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the Loans.

(b) Upon receipt of a notice of prepayment pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of the contents thereof and of such Bank’s ratable share of such prepayment and such notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the Company.

Section 2.12. General Provisions as to Payments. (a) The Company shall make each payment of principal of, and interest on, the Loans and of fees hereunder, without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or set-off, not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date when due, in Dollars and in Federal or other funds immediately available, to the account of the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Banks to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Bank its ratable share of each such payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Base Rate Loans or of fees shall be due on a day which is not a Domestic Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Domestic Business Day. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Euro-Dollar Loans shall be due on a day which is not a Euro-Dollar Business Day, the date for payment thereof

18

shall be extended to the next succeeding Euro-Dollar Business Day unless such Euro-Dollar Business Day falls in another calendar month, in which case the date for payment thereof shall be the next preceding Euro-Dollar Business Day. If the date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law or otherwise, interest and fees thereon shall be payable for such extended time. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 12:00 Noon shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Domestic Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

(b) 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 Banks hereunder that the Company will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Company has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the extent that the Company shall not have so made such payment, each Bank severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Bank in immediately available funds together with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to such Bank until the date such Bank repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Bank or the Company with respect to any amount owing under this clause (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c) If any Bank shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.03(b), 2.12(b) or 7.06 within three Domestic Business Days, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank for the benefit of the Administrative Agent to satisfy such Bank’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or hold any such amounts in a segregated account for application to any future funding obligations of such Bank under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

(d) If any Bank makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Bank as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article 2, and such funds are not made available to the Company by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Borrowing set forth in Article 3 are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Bank) to such Bank, without interest.

(e) The obligations of the Banks hereunder to make Loans are several and not joint. The failure of any Bank to make any Loan on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Bank of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to so make its Loan.

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

Section 2.13. Funding Losses. If the Company makes any payment of principal with respect to any Euro-Dollar Loan or any Euro-Dollar Loan is converted to a different type of Loan (whether such payment or conversion is pursuant to Article 2, 6 or 8 or otherwise) on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or if the Company fails to borrow, prepay, convert or continue any Euro-Dollar Loans after notice has been given to any Bank in accordance with Section 2.03(a), 2.07(c) or

19

2.11(b), the Company shall reimburse each Bank within 15 days after demand for any resulting loss or expense incurred by it (or by an existing or prospective Participant in the related Loan), including (without limitation) any loss incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third parties, but excluding loss of margin for the period after any such payment or conversion or failure to borrow, prepay, convert or continue; provided that such Bank shall have delivered to the Company a certificate as to the amount of such loss or expense, which certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

Section 2.14. Computation of Interest and Fees. All interest for Base Rate Loans hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All other interest and fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

Section 2.15. Regulation D Compensation. Each Bank may require the Company to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on the Euro-Dollar Loans, additional interest on the related Euro-Dollar Loan of such Bank at a rate per annum determined by such Bank up to but not exceeding the excess of (i) (A) the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate divided by (B) one minus the Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage over (ii) the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate. Any Bank wishing to require payment of such additional interest (x) shall so notify the Company and the Administrative Agent, in which case such additional interest on the Euro-Dollar Loans of such Bank shall be payable to such Bank at the place indicated in such notice with respect to each Interest Period commencing at least three Euro-Dollar Business Days after the giving of such notice and (y) shall notify the Company at least five Euro-Dollar Business Days prior to each date on which interest is payable on the Euro-Dollar Loans of the amount then due it under this Section.

Section 2.16. Defaulting Banks. If any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Bank is a Defaulting Bank:

(a) neither the Commitment nor the Loans of such Defaulting Bank shall be included in determining whether all Banks or the Required Banks have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.05); provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Banks which affects such Defaulting Bank differently than other affected Banks shall require the consent of such Defaulting Bank; provided, further that no waiver, amendment or modification of the type described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of Section 9.05 may be made without the written consent of any Defaulting Bank affected thereby;

(b) the Company may, at its sole expense, upon notice to such Defaulting Bank and the Administrative Agent, require such Defaulting Bank to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.06, with the Company or the replacement Bank paying the processing and recording fee), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Assignee may be another Bank, if a Bank accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Company shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent to such assignment (to the extent such consent would otherwise be required pursuant to Section 9.06), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, delayed or conditioned, and (ii) such Defaulting Bank shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company;

20

(c) notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement, the Company may (i) prepay, without penalty or premium, the Loans made by a Defaulting Bank and (ii) terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of a Defaulting Bank, in each case, (x) without pro rata prepayment of Loans of other Banks or pro rata termination of Commitments of other Banks and (y) upon not less than two Domestic Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Banks thereof), it being understood that such prepayment and termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Company or the Administrative Agent may have against such Defaulting Bank; and

ARTICLE 7

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 7.01. Appointment and Authorization. Each Bank irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with all such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article 7 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Banks, and the Company shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

Section 7.02. Administrative Agent and Affiliates. The Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Bank under this Agreement as any other Bank and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Bank” or “Banks” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity, and U.S. Bank and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Banks.

Section 7.03. Action by Administrative Agent. The obligations and duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder are only those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(a) shall not be required to take any action with respect to any Default, except as expressly provided in Article 6;

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

(c) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Banks (or such other number or percentage of the Banks as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Bank in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

33

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

Section 7.04. Reliance by Administrative Agent; Consultation with Experts. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Bank prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Company), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 7.05. Liability of Administrative Agent. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in connection herewith (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Banks (or such other number or percentage of the Banks as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 9.05 and Article 6) or, when expressly required hereby, all the Banks or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Company or a Bank. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or the borrowing hereunder or other Loan Document; (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of the Company or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default; (iv) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article 3 or elsewhere herein, except receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent; or (v) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection herewith. The Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement, or other writing (which may be a bank wire, e-mail, facsimile transmission or similar writing) believed by it to be genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties.

Section 7.06. Indemnification. Each Bank shall, ratably in accordance with its Commitment, indemnify the Administrative Agent, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Company) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.

34

Section 7.07. Credit Decision. Each Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking any action under this Agreement.

Section 7.08. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective related parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article 7 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the related parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

Section 7.09. Successor Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Banks and the Company. Upon any such notice of resignation, the Required Banks shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Banks) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Banks and in consultation with the Company, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, provided that in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Bank. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Bank pursuant to clause (e) of the definition thereof, the Required Banks may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Company and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Company, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Banks) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Bank directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Banks appoint a successor

35

Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 8.04(d) and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 7.09). The fees payable by the Company to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After any retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective related parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them (i) while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and (ii) after such resignation or removal for as long as any of them continues to act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor Administrative Agent.

Section 7.10. Administrative Agent’s Fee. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account fees in the amounts and at the times previously agreed upon between the Company and the Administrative Agent.

Section 7.11. Other Agents. No Agent other than the Administrative Agent shall have any duties or obligations of any kind under this Agreement in its capacity as an Agent. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Joint Bookrunners, Arrangers, Documentation Agents or Syndication Agent listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Bank hereunder.

Section 7.12. Certain ERISA Matters.

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

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

(ii) the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Bank’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement,

36

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

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

(b) In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Bank or (2) a Bank has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Bank further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Bank hereunder, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Bank hereunder to the date such Person ceases being a Bank hereunder, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Company, that the Administrative Agent is not a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Bank involved in such Bank’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

ARTICLE 8

CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES

Section 8.01. Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate, Unfair or Unavailable.

(a) If in connection with any request for a Euro-Dollar Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof (i) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that (A) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank Euro-Dollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Euro-Dollar Loan or (B) (x) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the London Interbank Offered Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Euro-Dollar Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan and (y) the circumstances described in Section 8.01(c)(i) do not apply (in each case with respect to this clause (i), “Impacted Loans”), or (ii) the Administrative Agent or the Required Banks reasonably determine that for any reason the London Interbank Offered Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Euro-Dollar Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks of funding such Euro-Dollar Loan for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Company and the Banks, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, (i) the obligations of the Banks to make Euro-Dollar Loans, or to continue or convert outstanding Loans as or into Euro-Dollar Loans, shall be suspended and (ii) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the London Interbank Offered Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the London Interbank Offered Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a determination by the Required Banks described in clause (ii) of Section 8.01(a), until the Administrative Agent upon instruction of the Required Banks) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Euro-Dollar Loans (to the extent of the affected Euro-Dollar Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

37

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination described in clause (i) of Section 8.01(a), the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Company, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (i) the Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (i) of the first sentence of this Section 8.01(a), (ii) the Administrative Agent or the Required Banks notify the Administrative Agent and the Company that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks of funding the Impacted Loans or (iii) any Bank determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Bank or its Applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Bank to do any of the foregoing and provides the Administrative Agent and the Company written notice thereof. Notwithstanding anything else herein, any such alternative interest rate shall provide that in no event shall such alternative interest rate be less than 1.00% for purposes of this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Company or Required Banks notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Banks, a copy to Company) that the Company or Required Banks (as applicable) have determined, that:

(i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period, including, without limitation, because the LIBOR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

(ii) the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which LIBOR or the LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”), or

(iii) syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace LIBOR,

then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Company may amend this Agreement to replace LIBOR with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein), giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks (any such proposed rate, a “LIBOR Successor Rate”), together with any proposed LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth Domestic Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Banks and the Company unless, prior to such time, Banks comprising the Required Banks have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Banks do not accept such amendment.

38

If no LIBOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (i) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Company and each Bank. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Banks to make or maintain Euro-Dollar Loans shall be suspended, (to the extent of the affected Euro-Dollar Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) the Euro-Dollar Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Euro-Dollar Loans (to the extent of the affected Euro-Dollar Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the amount specified therein.

Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of LIBOR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such LIBOR Successor Rate be less than 1.00% for purposes of this Agreement.

Section 8.02. Illegality. (a) If a Change in Law shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Bank (or its Euro-Dollar Lending Office) to make, maintain or fund its Euro-Dollar Loans and such Bank shall so notify the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Banks and the Company, whereupon until such Bank notifies the Company and the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Bank to make Euro-Dollar Loans, or to convert outstanding Loans into Euro-Dollar Loans or continue outstanding Loans as Euro-Dollar Loans, shall be suspended. Before giving any notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section, such Bank shall designate a different Euro-Dollar Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the sole judgment of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank.

(b) If such notice is given, each Euro-Dollar Loan of such Bank then outstanding shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan either (i) on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Euro-Dollar Loan if such Bank may lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Loan as a Euro-Dollar Loan to such day or (ii) immediately if such Bank shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Loan as a Euro-Dollar Loan to such day. Interest and principal on any such Base Rate Loan shall be payable on the same dates as, and on a pro rata basis with, the interest and principal payable on the related Euro-Dollar Loans of the other Banks.

Section 8.03. Increased Cost and Reduced Return. (a) If a Change in Law shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding with respect to any Euro-Dollar Loan any such requirement included in an applicable Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage), special deposit, insurance assessment or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) or shall impose on any Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) or on the London interbank market any other condition affecting its Euro-Dollar Loans or its obligation to make Euro-Dollar Loans and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) of making or maintaining any Euro-Dollar Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) under this Agreement with respect thereto, by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then, within 15 days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Company shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank for such increased cost or reduction.

(b) If any Bank shall have determined that a Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Bank (or its Parent) as a consequence of such Bank’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such Change in Law, by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Company shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank (or its Parent) for such reduction.

39

(c) If after the date of this Agreement, a Change in Law shall subject any Bank to any Taxes (other than Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment made by or on account of the Company hereunder or under any Loan, Other Taxes and Taxes described in clauses (i) through (v) of the definition of Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations hereunder, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, and the result shall be to increase the cost to such Bank of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Company will pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(d) Each Bank will promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section and will designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the sole judgment of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank. A certificate of any Bank claiming compensation under this Section and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Notwithstanding the foregoing subsections of this Section 8.03, the Company shall only be obligated to compensate any Bank for any amount (x) if such Bank is generally seeking similar compensation from its other similarly situated borrowers and (y) arising or accruing during (i) any time or period commencing not more than 90 days prior to the date on which such Bank notifies the Administrative Agent and the Company that it proposes to demand such compensation and identifies to the Administrative Agent and the Company the statute, regulation or other basis upon which the claimed compensation is or will be based and (ii) any time or period during which, because of the retroactive application of such statute, regulation or other such basis, such Bank did not know that such amount would arise or accrue.

Section 8.04. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Company to or for the account of any Bank or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto (collectively, “Taxes”), except as required by applicable law. If the Company or the Administrative Agent (the “Withholding Agent”) shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Bank or the Administrative Agent, (w) the sum payable by the Company shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 8.04) such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been required, (x) such Withholding Agent shall make such deductions, (y) such Withholding Agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and (z) if the Withholding Agent is the Company, the Company shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.01, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(b) In addition, except to the extent attributable to a transfer under Section 9.06, the Company agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary Taxes and any other excise or property Taxes, or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

40

(c) The Company agrees to indemnify each Bank and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 8.04) paid by such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 15 days from the date such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor.

(d) Any Bank that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under this Agreement or any Loan shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Bank, if requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Company or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Bank is subject to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 8.04(e), (f), (g) and (h) below) shall not be required if in the Bank’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Bank to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Bank.

(e) Without limiting the foregoing, at the times indicated herein, each Bank organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall provide the Company and the Administrative Agent with duly and accurately executed originals of Internal Revenue Service form W-8BEN-E, W-8IMY (accompanied by a form W-8ECI, W-8BEN-E, W-9 and other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable) or W-8ECI (in each case accompanied by any statements which may be required under applicable Treasury regulations), as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Bank is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement (i) without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income Taxes or (ii) subject to a reduced rate of United States federal withholding Tax, unless, in each case of clause (i) and (ii) of this Section 8.04(e), an event (including, without limitation, any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders such forms inapplicable or which would prevent the Bank from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and the Bank advises the Company and the Administrative Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of such Taxes. Such forms shall be provided (x) on or prior to the date of the Bank’s execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Bank listed on the signature pages hereof, and on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Bank in the case of each other Bank, and (y) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form so delivered by the Bank. If the form provided by a Bank at the time such Bank first becomes a party to this Agreement indicates a United States interest withholding Tax rate in excess of zero or if at such time such Bank is otherwise subject to a United States interest withholding Tax rate in excess of zero, United States withholding Tax at such rate shall be considered “Excluded Taxes” with respect to such Bank, except to the extent the assignor of such Bank was entitled, at the time of such assignment, to receive additional amounts from the Company with respect to such withholding Taxes pursuant to Section 8.04. In addition, if for reasons other than a change of treaty, law or regulation any Bank becomes subject to an increased rate of United States interest withholding Tax while it is a party to this Agreement, United States withholding Tax to the extent of such increase in rate shall be considered “Excluded Taxes” with respect to such Bank.

41

(f) Any Bank that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Company or the Administrative Agent), duly and accurately executed originals of Internal Revenue Service form W-9 certifying, to the extent such Bank is legally entitled to do so, that such Bank is not subject to U.S. Federal backup withholding Tax. For the avoidance of doubt, such Tax is an “Excluded Tax”.

(g) If a payment made to a Bank under this Agreement or any Loan would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Bank were to fail to comply with the applicable requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Bank shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Bank has complied with such Bank’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 8.04(g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement, whether or not included in the definition of FATCA.

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

(i) For any period with respect to which a Bank organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States has failed to provide the Company and the Administrative Agent with the appropriate form in accordance with Section 8.04(e) (unless such failure is excused by the terms of Section 8.04(e)), such Bank shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 8.04(a) or (c) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States (such non-indemnified Taxes being “Excluded Taxes”); provided, however, that should a Bank, which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding Tax, become subject to such Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Company shall take such steps as such Bank shall reasonably request to assist such Bank to recover such Taxes.

(j) Each Bank shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes and Excluded Taxes (but only to the extent that the Company has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and Excluded Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Company to do so), in each case attributable to such Bank that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 15 days from the date the Administrative Agent makes demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Bank by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Bank under this Agreement or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Bank from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (j).

42

(k) Each party’s obligations under this Section 8.04 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Bank, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations under this Agreement subject to Section 8.03(d).

(l) If the Company is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Bank pursuant to this Section 8.04, then such Bank will change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if, in the sole judgment of such Bank, such change (i) will eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue and (ii) is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank.

(m) If the Administrative Agent or a Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Company or with respect to which the Company has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay over such refund to the Company (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Company under this Section with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses with respect to such refund of the Administrative Agent or such Bank and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Company, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Company (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Bank in the event the Administrative Agent or such Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (m), in no event will the Administrative Agent or a Bank be required to pay any amount to the Company pursuant to this paragraph (m) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Bank in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Bank would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Company or any other Person.

(n) For purposes of this Section 8.04, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

Section 8.05. Base Rate Loans Substituted for Affected Euro-Dollar Loans. If (i) the obligation of any Bank to make, or to continue or convert outstanding Loans as or to, Euro-Dollar Loans has been suspended pursuant to Section 8.02 or (ii) any Bank has demanded compensation under Section 8.03 or 8.04 with respect to its Euro-Dollar Loans and the Company shall, by at least five Euro-Dollar Business Days’ prior notice to such Bank through the Administrative Agent, have elected that the provisions of this Section shall apply to such Bank, then, all Loans which would otherwise be made by such Bank as (or continued as or converted to) Euro-Dollar Loans shall be made instead as Base Rate Loans (on which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related Euro-Dollar Loans of the other Banks). If such Bank notifies the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension or demand for compensation no longer exist, the principal amount of each such Base Rate Loan shall be converted into a Euro-Dollar Loan on the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period applicable to the related Euro-Dollar Loans of the other Banks.

Section 8.06. Replacement of Banks. If any Bank requests compensation under Section 8.03, or if the Company is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Bank pursuant to Section 8.04 and, in each case, such Bank has declined or is unable to designate a different Applicable Lending Office in accordance with Section 8.03(d) or Section 8.04(l), or if any Bank is a Non-Consenting Bank, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Bank and the Administrative Agent, require such Bank to

43

assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 9.06), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 8.03 or Section 8.04) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Bank, if a Bank accepts such assignment); provided that:

(i) the Company shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 9.06(c);

(ii) such Bank shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.13) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 8.03 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 8.04, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law; and

(v) in the case of any assignment resulting from a Bank becoming a Non-Consenting Bank, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

A Bank shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Bank or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Each party hereto agrees that (a) an assignment required pursuant to this Section 8.06 may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Company, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and (b) the Bank required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to and be bound by the terms thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable Bank, provided, further that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, the Bank that acts as the Administrative Agent may not be replaced hereunder except in accordance with the terms of Section 7.09

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

Section 9.02. No Waivers. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Bank in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

Section 9.03. Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The Company shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, including fees and disbursements of special counsel for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the preparation and administration of this Agreement, any waiver or consent hereunder or any amendment hereof or any Default or alleged Default hereunder and (ii) if an Event of Default occurs, all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and each Bank, including (without duplication) the fees and disbursements of outside counsel and the allocated cost of inside counsel, in connection with such Event of Default and collection, bankruptcy, insolvency and other enforcement proceedings resulting therefrom.

(b) The Company agrees to indemnify each Agent and Bank, their respective affiliates and the respective directors, officers, agents and employees of the foregoing (each an “Indemnitee”) and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all liabilities (including liabilities relating to or arising under Environmental Laws), losses, damages, costs and expenses of any kind, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, which may be incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding (whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto) brought or threatened relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any actual or proposed use of proceeds of Loans hereunder; provided that no Indemnitee shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder for such Indemnitee’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct or a breach of an express obligation under this Agreement as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

45

(c) Each party hereto waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement any special, exemplary, punitive, indirect or consequential damages; provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall relieve the Company of any indemnity obligation it may have under subsection (b) above with respect to special, exemplary, punitive, indirect or consequential damages which are required to be paid by any Indemnitee to any Person that is not (i) a party to this Agreement, (ii) a Participant or (iii) an Affiliate of any party to this Agreement or a Participant.

Section 9.04. Sharing of Set-offs. Each Bank agrees that if it shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then due with respect to any Loan held by it which is greater than the proportion received by any other Bank in respect of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then due with respect to any Loan held by such other Bank, the Bank receiving such proportionately greater payment shall purchase such participations in the Loans held by the other Banks, and such other adjustments shall be made, as may be required so that all such payments of principal and interest with respect to the Loans held by the Banks shall be shared by the Banks pro rata; provided that nothing in this Section shall impair the right of any Bank to exercise any right of set-off or counterclaim it may have and to apply the amount subject to such exercise to the payment of indebtedness of the Company other than its indebtedness hereunder. The Company agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any holder of a participation in a Loan, if acquired pursuant to the foregoing arrangements or if the Company has otherwise received notice of the granting of such participation, may exercise rights of set-off or counterclaim and other rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such holder of a participation were a direct creditor of the Company in the amount of such participation.

Section 9.05. Amendments and Waivers. Subject to Section 8.01(c) and the last paragraph of this Section 9.05, any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Company and the Required Banks (and, if the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent are affected thereby, by the Administrative Agent), and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent; provided that (a) no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by each Bank adversely affected thereby, (i) increase the Commitment of any Bank or subject any Bank to any additional obligation, (ii) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on any Loan, or any fees hereunder, (iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on any Loan or any fees hereunder or for termination of any Commitment or (iv) alter the pro rata sharing provisions under Sections 2.11 and 2.12, 8.02(b) or 9.04, (b) no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by all of the Banks (other than a Defaulting Bank) change this Section 9.05 or the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans, or the number of Banks, which shall be required for the Banks or any of them to take any action under this Section 9.05 or any other provision of this Agreement, (c) no such amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Banks required above, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (d) no such amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Arrangers in addition to the Banks required above, affect the rights or duties of the Arrangers under Section 7.11 or Section 9.14.

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, if the Administrative Agent and the Company acting together identify any ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including the schedules and exhibits thereto), then the Administrative Agent and the Company shall be permitted to amend, modify or supplement such provision to cure such ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect,

46

and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as, in each case, the Banks shall have received at least five Domestic Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Domestic Business Days of the date of such notice to the Banks, a written notice from the Required Banks stating that the Required Banks object to such amendment.

Section 9.06. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Company may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Bank and no Bank may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except as provided herein (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 clause (b) of this Section 9.06 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the related parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Banks) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Subject to subsection (h) below, any Bank may at any time grant to one or more banks or other institutions (each a “Participant”) participating interests in its Commitment, including all or a portion of its Loans at the time owing to it. In the event of any such grant by a Bank of a participating interest to a Participant, whether or not upon notice to the Company and the Administrative Agent, such Bank shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and the Company and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which any Bank may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Company hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such participation agreement may provide that such Bank will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of Section 9.05 without the consent of the Participant. The Company agrees that each Participant shall, to the extent provided in its participation agreement, be entitled to the benefits of Article 8 with respect to its participating interest; provided the Participant complies with the obligations of Sections 8.04(d), (e), (f), (g) and (h) as if it were a Bank (it being understood that the documentation required shall be delivered to the selling Bank and, if required by law for reduced withholding, copies shall be delivered to the Company and the Administrative Agent). Each Bank that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Bank shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or, if different, under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Bank shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

47

(c) Subject to subsection (h) below, any Bank may at any time assign to one or more banks or other institutions (each an “Assignee”) all, or a proportionate part (equivalent to an initial Commitment of not less than $5,000,000 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); provided that in the case of an assignment to a Bank, an Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned) of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Assignee shall assume such rights and obligations, pursuant to (x) an Assignment and Assumption Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit C (each an “Assignment and Assumption Agreement”) hereto executed by such Assignee and such transferor Bank, with (and subject to) the subscribed consent (so long as no Event of Default exists) of the Company (which may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and, for assignments to a Person that is not a Bank, an Affiliate of such Bank or an Approved Fund with respect to such Bank, the Administrative Agent (which may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption Agreement by reference pursuant to a Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption Agreement are participants; provided that the Company shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by notice to the Administrative Agent within five Domestic Business Days after having received notice thereof; and provided, further that, if an Assignee is an Approved Fund, an Affiliate of a Bank or is a Bank, no such consent of the Company shall be required. Upon execution and delivery of such Assignment and Assumption Agreement and payment by such Assignee to such transferor Bank of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Bank and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be a Bank party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank with a Commitment as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, and the transferor Bank shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent (but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 8.03, 8.04, and 9.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Bank will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Bank’s having been a Defaulting Bank) and no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection (c), the Administrative Agent shall record in the Register the information relating to such assignment. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. In connection with any such assignment, the transferor Bank shall pay to the Administrative Agent an administrative fee for processing such assignment in the amount of $3,500 (which processing fee may be waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion). Upon request, the Company (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a promissory note to the Assignee. If the Assignee is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof, it shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding of any United States federal income Taxes in accordance with Section 8.04.    An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by subsection (c) shall be given effect for purposes of this Agreement only to the extent of a participating interest granted in accordance with subsection (b).

(d) Any Bank may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and its Loans to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank having jurisdiction over such Bank to secure obligations of such Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest. No such pledge or assignment shall release the transferor Bank from its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Bank as a party hereto.

(e) No Assignee, Participant or other transferee of any Bank’s rights shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 8.03 or 8.04 than such Bank would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred, unless such transfer is made with the Company’s prior written consent or by reason of the provisions of Section 8.02, 8.03 or 8.04 requiring such Bank to designate a different Applicable Lending Office under certain circumstances or at a time when the circumstances giving rise to such greater payment did not exist.

48

(f) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption Agreement delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks, and the Commitments of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Banks shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.

PRICING SCHEDULE

The “Euro-Dollar Margin” and “Base Rate Margin” for any day are the respective percentages set forth in the table below in the applicable row under the column corresponding to the Status that exists on such day:

For purposes of this Schedule, the following terms have the following meanings, subject to the final paragraph of this Schedule:

“Level I Status” exists at any date if, at such date, the Company’s senior unsecured debt is rated AA- or higher by S&P or Aa3 or higher by Moody’s.

“Level II Status” exists at any date if, at such date, (i) the Company’s senior unsecured long-term debt is rated A+ or higher by S&P or A1 or higher by Moody’s and (ii) Level I Status does not exist.

“Level III Status” exists at any date if, at such date, (i) the Company’s senior unsecured long- term debt is rated A or higher by S&P or A2 or higher by Moody’s and (ii) none of Level I Status or Level II Status exists.

“Level IV Status” exists at any date if, at such date, (i) the Company’s senior unsecured long- term debt is rated A- or higher by S&P or A3 or higher by Moody’s and (ii) none of Level I Status, Level II Status or Level III Status exists.

“Level V Status” exists at any date if, at such date, no other Status exists.

“▇▇▇▇▇’▇” means ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Investors Service, Inc.

“S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, a subsidiary of S&P Global Inc.

“Status” refers to the determination of which of Level I Status, Level II Status, Level III Status, Level IV Status or Level V Status exists at any date.

The credit ratings to be utilized for purposes of this Schedule are those assigned to the senior unsecured long-term debt securities of the Company without third-party credit enhancement, whether or not any such debt securities are actually outstanding, and any rating assigned to any other debt security of the Company shall be disregarded. The rating in effect at any date is that in effect at the close of business on such date. In the event of split ratings from Moody’s and S&P, (i) if the ratings are one full rating category apart, Status shall be determined by the higher of the two ratings and (ii) if the ratings are more

than one full rating category apart, Status shall be determined based on the rating at the midpoint between the two ratings, provided that if there is no rating at the midpoint between the two ratings, then the lowest of the intermediate ratings shall apply (e.g., AA-/A1 results in Level I Status, AA-/A2 results in Level II Status, and AA-/A3 results in Level III Status). If the rating system of Moody’s or S&P shall change, or if either such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Company and the Banks shall negotiate in good faith to amend this definition to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings from such rating agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the ratings shall be determined by reference to the rating most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation.
