The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any interest rate used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to Borrower. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

(g) Holding Vehicles. Each reference in this Agreement and each other Loan Document to a Holding Vehicle (including in such Holding Vehicle’s capacity as a Sponsor Party) taking, refraining from, or failing to take any action or observe any covenant shall be deemed a reference to the Investment Subsidiary causing, or failing to cause, such Holding Vehicle to take, refrain from or fail to take such action or observe such covenant.

Section 2.01. Loans.

(a) [Reserved].

30

(b) Revolving Credit Borrowing. Subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, each Lender severally agrees to make Benchmark Rate Loans in Dollars to Borrower from time to time, on any Business Day during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Commitment; provided, however, that, after giving effect to any Borrowing,

(i) the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the aggregate Commitments and (ii) the Total Outstandings would not exceed the Available Loan Amount as of such date. Within the limits of each Lender’s Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow Loans under this Section 2.01(b), prepay Loans under Section 2.05, and reborrow Loans under this Section 2.01(b).

(c) Loan Notice. Borrower shall request the Loans by delivery of an irrevocable written loan notice (the “Loan Notice”) signed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit G and containing: (i) the requested date of the Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day during the Availability Period); (ii) the principal amount of the Loans to be borrowed; (iii) to which account(s) the proceeds of the Borrowing should be directed; and (iv) a calculation of the Borrowing Base and the Loan to Value Ratio (after giving effect to the requested Borrowing). The Loan Notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of Borrowing (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree to).

(d) Funding. On the Closing Date or any other date on which a Borrowing is to be made hereunder, not later than 2:00 p.m. (EST) or such later time as may be agreed to by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and the Administrative Agent, and subject to and upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article 3 as determined by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, each Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent its ratable portion of the funds requested under clause (b) above on the applicable borrowing date. The failure of any Lender to advance the proceeds of its Applicable Percentage of any Loan required to be advanced hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to advance the proceeds of its Applicable Percentage of any Loan required to be advanced hereunder.

(e) Benchmark Rate Loans. The Loans shall be Benchmark Rate Loans or in the event that Benchmark Rate Loans are unavailable pursuant to Section 2.08, may be converted into Base Rate Loans in accordance with Section 2.08.

(f) Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no more than five (5) Benchmark Rate Loan Interest Periods may be in effect hereunder at any one time.

(g) Minimum Loan and Commitment Increase Amounts. Each Benchmark Rate Loan shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $250,000 and not less than $1,000,000, and each Commitment Increase shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $250,000 and not less than $2,500,000.

(h) Commitment Increase. Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request an increase in the Commitments under this Agreement (in an aggregate amount not to exceed $50,000,000), which shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (and if so approved by the Administrative Agent, the “Commitment Increase”); provided that the Administrative Agent shall respond to any such notice within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof (with any failure to respond to such notice within such period deemed to be a declination of such request). Such notice shall set forth (1) the amount of the Commitment Increase being requested (which shall meet the requirements of Section 2.01(g)) and (2) the date on which such Commitment Increase is requested to be made (which shall not be less

31

than ten (10) Business Days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date of such notice (or such shorter or longer periods as the Administrative Agent may agree)). Each Lender shall be entitled to agree or decline to provide any such Commitment Increase, in its sole and absolute discretion. Unless agreed to by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, the Administrative Agents and the Lenders providing such Commitment Increase, the Commitment Increase shall otherwise be on terms identical to the existing Commitments hereunder. The loans to be made under such Commitment Increase shall be subject to LTV terms as well as conditions precedent to closing (solely to extent as required by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders providing such Commitment Increase).

(i) Extension of Loan. Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent no later than sixty (60) days prior to the current Stated Maturity Date, request to extend the Stated Maturity Date for one or more additional periods of up to one (1) year each, which request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, in its sole discretion.

Section 2.02. Use of Proceeds. (a) The proceeds of the Loans shall be used (x) for the Loan Parties’ general corporate purpose to the extent permitted pursuant to the Constituent Documents, including to finance the purchase of Eligible Investments, to make Capital Contributions, satisfy Capital Commitments, to make Distributions to Investors (including Permitted Tax Distributions) or otherwise satisfy repurchases of capital, and pay any fees and expenses related thereto, and (y) to pay the applicable upfront fees pursuant to the Fee Letter, in each case subject to the terms and conditions hereunder.

(b) No part of the proceeds of the Loans shall be used directly or indirectly for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock or maintaining or extending credit to others for such purpose, in each case, in violation of the Margin Regulations.

(c) Neither Lenders nor the Administrative Agent shall have any liability, obligation or responsibility whatsoever with respect to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s use of the proceeds of the Loans, and neither Lenders nor the Administrative Agent shall be obligated to determine whether or not Borrower’s use of the proceeds of the Loans are for purposes permitted under its Constituent Documents. Nothing, including, without limitation, any Borrowing, any conversion or continuation thereof, or acceptance of any other document or instrument, shall be construed as a representation or warranty, express or implied, to any party by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or the Administrative Agent as to whether any investment by Borrower is permitted by the terms of its Constituent Documents.

Section 2.03. Interest; Fees.

(a) Interest Rate and Elections.

(i) Interest Rate and Interest Period. Subject to the provisions of clause (ii) below:

(i) each Benchmark Rate Loan shall bear interest for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Benchmark for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin and (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Alternative Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. Accrued interest on Loans shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date or when the Loans shall become due (whether at maturity, by reason of prepayment, acceleration or otherwise); provided that the Administrative Agent shall provide to Borrower notice of the amount of interest to be paid not less than five (5) Business Days prior to each such Interest Payment Date.

32

(ii) Overdue Amounts.

(1) If any amount of principal of the Obligations is not paid when due, then (in lieu of the interest rate provided in Section 2.03(a)(i)), at the election of the Administrative Agent, such amount shall bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate.

(2) While any Event of Default exists, then (in lieu of the interest rate provided in Section 2.03(a)(i)), at the election of the Administrative Agent, the principal amount of the Obligations shall bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate, from the date of the occurrence of such Event of Default until such Event of Default is cured or is waived.

(b) Payment of Interest.

(i) Interest. Interest on the Borrowing and any portion thereof shall commence to accrue in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as of the date of the disbursal or wire transfer of the Borrowing by the Administrative Agent, consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.03, notwithstanding whether Borrower received the benefit of such Borrowing as of such date. With regard to the repayment of the Loans, interest shall continue to accrue on any amount repaid until such time as the repayment has been received in federal or other immediately available funds by the Administrative Agent.

(ii) Interest Payment Dates. Accrued and unpaid interest (i) on the Obligations shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date and on the Maturity Date and (ii) on any Obligation of Borrower hereunder on which Borrower is in default shall be due and payable at any time and from time to time following such default upon demand by the Administrative Agent. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

(c) Determination of Rate. Each change in the rate of interest for any Loan shall become effective, without prior notice to Borrower, automatically as of the opening of business of the Administrative Agent on the date of said change. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Benchmark Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of any Benchmark or any component thereof, by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(d) Upfront Fee. Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, an upfront fee on the Closing Date as set forth in the Fee Letter.

(e) Commitment Fee. Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage of the Facility for each Fiscal Quarter, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to 0.80% per annum of the actual daily Unused Revolving Facility Amount during such Fiscal Quarter, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.14. The Commitment Fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Section 3.02 is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date. The Commitment Fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears.

(f) Computations of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days

33

elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on the Loan from and including the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.04, bear interest for one day.

(g) Minimum Utilization Fee. If the Total Outstandings are less than the Minimum Funding Amount on any date during the Availability Period, then the Borrower agrees to pay or cause to be paid to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, an undrawn fee (the “Undrawn Fee”) which shall accrue on each day during the Availability Period at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin on the actual daily Undrawn Amount. Accrued Undrawn Fees shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, commencing with the first such payment date to occur after the Closing Date and on the last day of the Availability Period. The Undrawn Fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears.

Section 2.04. Notes; Payment of Obligations.

(a) Notes. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice records evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register in accordance with Section 10.05(b). The entries made in the records maintained pursuant to this paragraph (a) shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein. Any failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such records or make any entry therein or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In the event of any conflict between the records maintained by any Lender and the records maintained by the Administrative Agent in such matters, the records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon request of any ▇▇▇▇▇▇ made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall prepare, executive and deliver to such Lender a promissory note of the Borrower payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto.

(b) Maturity. The principal amount of the Loans outstanding, together with any accrued interest thereon, and all accrued fees and other amounts due and payable hereunder, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

(c) Payments Generally. All payments of principal of and interest on the Obligations under this Agreement by Borrower to or for the account of the Lenders shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff by Borrower. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any and all payments by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Lending Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date specified herein.

(d) Location of Payments. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States. Funds received after 2:00 p.m. shall be treated for all purposes as having been received by the Administrative Agent on the first Business Day next following receipt of such funds and any applicable interest or fees shall continue to accrue. Each Lender shall be entitled to receive its Applicable Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of each payment received

34

by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of Lenders on the Obligations. Each payment received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of a Lender shall be promptly distributed by the Administrative Agent to such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Lending Office. If any payment to be made by Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(e) Clawback.

(i) Funding by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇; Presumption by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Benchmark Rate Loans that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.01(e) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith (x) in the case of such Lender, on demand and (y) in the case of Borrower, if such Lender has not paid such amount to the Administrative Agent within three (3) Business Days, within fifteen (15) Business Days following demand, such corresponding amount in same day funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at: (a) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing; and (b) in the case of a payment to be made by Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the related Loans. If Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to Borrower the amount of such interest paid by Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing as of the date of such Borrowing. Any payment by Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(ii) Payments by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇; Presumptions by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, in same day funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this clause (e) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

35

Section 2.05. Prepayments.

(a) Optional Prepayments.

(i) Borrower may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans or terminate or reduce any Commitments, in whole or in part without premium or penalty (except as set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 2.05(a)); provided that any such termination or reduction of any Commitments shall be in compliance with Section 2.05(b)(iii). Such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment, termination or reduction and, if applicable, the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid (which prepayment, termination or reduction date shall be a Business Day not less than three (3) Business Days after the date of such notice or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree to). Any prepayment of any Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.10.

(ii) [Reserved].

(iii) In connection with any voluntary termination of the Commitments, or any permanent reduction of the Commitments made on or prior to the date that is twenty-four (24) months after the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with such Lender’s Applicable Percentage, a prepayment premium in an amount equal to the product of: (x) the amount of the Commitments being so terminated or permanently reduced, (y) the Applicable Margin in effect at such time multiplied by 50% and (z) the number of days remaining (as of the scheduled date of such termination or reduction) to the twenty-four (24) month anniversary of the Closing Date divided by 360. Such prepayment premium shall be due and payable on the date of such voluntary termination or reduction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) to the extent a Lender (or its Affiliate) participates in a refinancing of the Loans in proportion to, or in excess of, its Applicable Percentage as of the date of such refinancing, and the proceeds of such refinancing are used to permanently reduce or terminate the Commitments, (B) if all or any portion of the Commitments are permanently reduced pursuant to a refinancing transaction consummated because any Lender did not consent to an extension of the Stated Maturity Date pursuant to Section 2.01(i) hereof, or (C) to the extent a Lender is a Defaulting Lender hereunder, Borrower shall not be required to pay a prepayment premium pursuant to the foregoing clause

(iii) with respect to such Lender.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments.

(i) If, at any time, the Loan to Value Ratio on such date is greater than or equal to the Cash Cure LTV (including as a result of the reduction in the Fair Market Value of an Eligible Investment, a Material Investment Event, a complete or partial sale or realization of an Eligible Investment, or failure to comply with the Concentration Limit), Borrower shall prepay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, within three (3) Business Days, such aggregate principal amount of Loans as shall be necessary so that, after giving effect to such prepayment, the Loan to Value Ratio on such date does not exceed the Reset LTV (the amount of such required prepayment being the “Required LTV Prepayment”) (without, for the avoidance of doubt, a permanent reduction in the Commitments thereunder);

(ii) If, at any time, the Loan to Value Ratio on such date (a “Plan LTV Breach Date”) is greater than or equal to the Plan Cure LTV (including as a result of the reduction in the Fair Market Value of an Eligible Investment, a Material Investment Event, a complete or partial sale or realization of an Eligible Investment, or failure to comply with the Concentration Limit), Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days of the Plan LTV Breach Date, provide to the Administrative Agent a plan of action for liquidity generation and/or Disposition of assets (a “Required LTV Plan”) to reduce the Loan to Value Ratio to not greater than the Reset LTV. Any such plan shall

36

be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (in its sole discretion) and, if approved, Borrower shall have ninety (90) days from the approval of a Required LTV Plan to comply with such Required LTV Plan and reduce the Loan to Value Ratio to not greater than the Reset LTV (so long as the Administrative Agent has not delivered written notice to Borrower stating that, in the judgement and discretion of the Administrative Agent exercised in good faith, Borrower is not diligently pursuing the execution of such approved plan). For the avoidance of doubt, if, on any day an approved Required LTV Plan is in effect and there is a subsequent increase in the Loan to Value Ratio, Borrower shall be required under this clause (ii) to make such additional Required LTV Prepayments as if it were a new mandatory prepayment including, if necessary, subject to another such Required LTV Plan. The Applicable Margin on the Loans shall be increased by the Plan LTV Incremental Spread until Borrower has reduced the Loan to Value Ratio to be at or not greater than the Reset LTV, at which time Borrower shall no longer be subject to the Plan LTV Incremental Spread, and the Applicable Margin shall reset to the Initial Spread.

(iii) If, as of any date of determination, the aggregate principal amount of the Loans then outstanding shall exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments as of such date, then Borrower shall be required to prepay the Loans, within three (3) Business Days, in an amount sufficient to cause the aggregate principal amount of the Loans then outstanding to be equal to or less than the aggregate amount of the Commitment.

Section 2.06. Manner of Payment. (a) Except as otherwise expressly provided, Borrower shall make each payment under the Loan Documents to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, without any deduction whatsoever, including any deduction for any setoff, recoupment, counterclaim or Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes), at the Administrative Agent’s Lending Office not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the due date thereof. Any payments received after 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day. Without limiting the rights of the Lenders under Section 10.09, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender shall have the right, at any time, to charge any account of Borrower maintained with such Lender for the amount of any payment due by Borrower under the Loan Documents or to deduct the amount of any such payment from any remittance due to Borrower hereunder.

(b) Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall instead be made on the next succeeding Business Day, together with interest accrued during the period of such extension.

Section 2.07. Increased Costs Generally.

(a) Change in Law. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender;

(ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than: (A) Indemnified Taxes; (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes; and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) impose on any Lender any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Benchmark Rate Loans made by a Lender;

37

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Recipient of making or maintaining any Loan the interest on which is determined by reference to the Benchmark (or, in the case of clause (ii), 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 Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Recipient, Borrower will pay to such Recipient such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Recipient for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Lender’s Lending Office or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrower will pay to such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.07 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six (6) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

Section 2.08. Mandatory Suspension and Conversion of Benchmark Rate Loans.

(a) Illegality. If any Lender determines, reasonably and in good faith, that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or such Lender’s Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to any Benchmark (or component thereof), or to determine or charge interest rates based upon any Benchmark, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of Dollars in the applicable offshore interbank market, on notice thereof by such Lender to Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Benchmark Rate Loans in Dollars shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office and take such other reasonable action if such designation or action will avoid the need for such notice, or could mitigate the impact or reduce amounts payable by Borrower, and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a

38

copy to the Administrative Agent), convert Benchmark Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Benchmark Rate Loans to such day, or, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain Benchmark Rate Loans, immediately. Upon any such conversion, Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted. The applicable Lender will promptly upon becoming aware notify Borrower and the Administrative Agent in the event the circumstances giving rise to any such suspension under this Section 2.08(a) no longer exist, whereupon the notice giving rise to such suspension shall be automatically revoked.

(b) Inability to Determine Rates.

(i) If the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Benchmark Rate Loan that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Benchmark, as applicable (including because the applicable Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for such Interest Period; provided that no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time; or

(ii) The Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Benchmark Rate Loan, the Term SOFR for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period or (B) at any time, the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to Borrower and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter, and the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain such Benchmark Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent revokes such notice, and any such outstanding Benchmark Rate Loans shall be converted to Base Rate Loans at the end of the then current Interest Period. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Loan or for a conversion to or continuation of Benchmark Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for Base Rate Loans or for a conversion of the applicable Loan to Base Rate Loans, without reference to the Benchmark, in the amount specified therein. The Administrative Agent will promptly upon becoming aware notify Borrower and the Lenders in the event the circumstances giving rise to any such suspension under this Section 2.08(b) no longer exist, whereupon the notice giving rise to such suspension shall be automatically revoked.

(c) Successor Benchmark.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5^th) Business Day after

the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders and Borrower without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from the Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

(ii) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes (in consultation with Borrower) from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

(iii) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify Borrower and the Lenders of (A) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (B) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (C) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (D) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (iv) below and (E) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.08, including any determination with respect to the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.08.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(v) Upon Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, Borrower may revoke any request for a Loan, conversion to or continuation of Benchmark Rate Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, Borrower will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for Base Rate Loans or for a conversion or continuation of the applicable Loans to Base Rate Loans, without reference to the Benchmark, in the amount specified therein. Furthermore, if any Benchmark Rate Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.08(a) with respect to the Benchmark applicable to such Benchmark Rate Loan, then such Loan will be deemed to have converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), and, in the case of this clause

40

(v), upon any subsequent implementation of a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 2.08, such Base Rate Loan shall then be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Benchmark Rate Loan on the day of such implementation, giving effect to such Benchmark Replacement.

Section 2.09. Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Tax Indemnification. (i) Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within fifteen (15) Business Days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.09) payable or paid by such Recipient, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(i) Each Lender shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify the Administrative Agent,

and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for: (A) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so); (B) any Taxes attributable to such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.05(e) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register; and (C) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, as the case may be, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.09(c)(ii).

41

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.09, Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Status of Recipient; Tax Documentation. (i) If any Recipient is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document, such Recipient shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Recipient, if reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Recipient is subject to 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 2.09(e)(ii)(A), 2.09(e)(ii)(B)) and 2.09(e)(D) shall not be required if in the Recipient’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Recipient to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Recipient.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A) any Lender is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or about the date it becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Lender is not a U.S. Person (a “Foreign Person”) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about the date it becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of a Foreign Person claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3) in the case of a Foreign Person claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the

42

form of Exhibit H-1 to the effect that such Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W 8BEN-E; or

(4) to the extent a Foreign Person is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-2 or Exhibit H-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Person is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Person are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Person may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) and any Foreign Person, such Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about the date on which such Foreign Person becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to a Recipient under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Recipient were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Recipient shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as may be necessary for Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Recipient has complied with such Recipient’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

If any form or certification a Lender previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.09 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, such Lender shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Administrative Agent and Borrower in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.09, it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.09 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party, and without

43

interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.09(f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.09(f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.09(f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-tax position than the indemnified party 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 Section 2.09(f) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(g) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.09 shall survive the assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, the Administrative Agent, or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.

Section 2.10. Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the

Administrative Agent), from time to time, Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense actually incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Benchmark Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or

(b) any failure by Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by Borrower;

excluding any loss of anticipated profits but including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.

Section 2.11. Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to

advance Loans hereunder are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 10.01(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or to make its payment under Section 10.01(c).

Section 2.12. Applicable Lending Office. Each Lender may make, carry or transfer Loans at, to, or for the account of one of its Affiliates, provided that no Lender shall be entitled to receive any greater amount under Sections 2.07 or 2.09 as a result of the transfer of any such Loan than such Lender would be entitled to immediately prior thereto unless (a) such transfer occurred at a time when circumstances giving rise to the claim for such greater amount did not exist or (b) such claim would have arisen even if such transfer had not occurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of its Loans in any manner it sees fit.

44

Section 2.13. Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Recipient requests compensation under Section 2.07(a) or (b), or requires Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Recipient or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Recipient pursuant to Section 2.09, or if any Recipient gives a notice pursuant to Section 2.08(a), then, at the request of Borrower, such Recipient shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate the effects of the event giving rise to such request or payment, including, in the case of a Lender, designating a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or assigning its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment: (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.07(a) or (b), or Section 2.09, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 2.08(a), as applicable; and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

Section 2.14. Defaulting Lenders.

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

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 9 or otherwise) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentage hereunder. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

45

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.15. Termination or Reduction of Commitments.

(a) The Facility shall be automatically and permanently reduced to zero on the Maturity Date.

(b) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any termination or reduction of the Commitment under this Section 2.15 or Section 2.05(a)(iii). Upon any reduction of the Commitments, the Commitment of each Lender shall be reduced by such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount by which the Commitments are reduced. All fees in respect of the Facility accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Facility shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

Section 4.02. Authorization, Binding Effect, No Conflict, Etc.

(a) Authorization, Binding Effect, Etc. The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of each Loan Document to which it is or will be a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action on the part of such Loan Party, respectively.

(b) No Conflict. The execution, delivery and performance by the Loan Parties of each Loan Document to which it is or will be a party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, do not and will not (i) violate any provision of its Constituent Documents, (ii) except for consents that have been obtained and are in full force and effect, conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute (or, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute) a default under, or require the approval or consent of any Person pursuant to, any Contractual Obligation of Borrower or any Guarantor, or violate any Applicable Law binding on such Loan Party, except where such violation, conflict, breach, or default would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect or (iii) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any asset of such Loan Party, or any income or profits therefrom, except for Liens permitted pursuant to Section 8.01.

(c) Governmental Approvals; Other Consents. Except for filings and recordings in connection with the perfection of Liens created by the Collateral Documents, no Governmental Approval or approval, consent, exemption, authorization or other action by, or notice to or filing with any other Person is necessary or required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by any Loan Party of any Loan Document to which it is party or the transactions contemplated thereby or to ensure the legality, validity or enforceability thereof, except where the failure to obtain such Governmental Approval, or to obtain such approval, consent, exemption, authorization or other action by or from, or give notice to or make a filing with, such other Person, would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.03. Business Activities. No Sponsor Party is engaged in any activities other than those permitted by this Agreement and such Sponsor’s Party’s Constituent Documents.

Section 4.04. No Material Adverse Change. Since the date of the most recently provided financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 7.01(a) or 7.01(b), there has been no Material Adverse Change.

Section 4.05. Litigation. There are no non-frivolous actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened against or affecting any Sponsor Party or any of their properties, or the Collateral before any Governmental Authority, as of the Closing Date, (a) in which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (b) that in any manner draw into question the validity, legality or enforceability of any Loan Document or any obligations thereunder.

Section 4.06. Agreements; Applicable Law. No Sponsor Party is in violation of any Applicable Law, or in default under its Constituent Documents or any of its Contractual Obligations, except where such violation or default would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

Section 4.07. Taxes. All U.S. federal income tax returns and all other material tax returns and reports required to be filed by each Sponsor Party have been filed and all material Taxes required to be paid by a Sponsor Party have been paid, except such Taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith and by

49

appropriate proceedings and as to which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with GAAP.

Each applicable Sponsor Party shall from time to time, using appropriate accounting standards, write-down the value of each Portfolio Investment on the books of such Sponsor Party consistent with the lower of (x) the “net asset value” or other similar valuation for such Portfolio Investment as reported to the applicable Sponsor Party by the Private Equity Investment Sponsor, Issuer, general partner, managing member or manager, as applicable and (y) the value reasonably determined by such Sponsor Party if less than that determined under the preceding clause (x) and consistent with the requirements set forth in the Parent Valuation Policy (such value contemplated by this sentence being referred to herein as a “Write-Down”). To the extent that any Portfolio Investment is subject to a Write-Down, Borrower shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the same and shall provide to the Administrative Agent the value of such Portfolio Investment on the books of the applicable Sponsor Party (the “Write-Down Valuation”). To the extent of any discrepancy in the value of any Portfolio Investment between the most recent Investment Policy Portfolio Valuation or the Write-Down Valuation, the lowest valuation shall be used for purposes of calculating the Borrowing Base.

Section 7.12. Insurance. The Parent will maintain insurance of such types and in such amounts as are consistent with customary practices of registered investment companies, except to the extent the failure to maintain any such insurance would not result in a Material Adverse Effect, or as may otherwise be required by the Investment Company Act or the SEC (including such fidelity bond coverage as shall be required by Rule 17g-1 promulgated under the Investment Company Act or any successor provision and errors and omissions insurance).

Section 7.13. “Know-Your-Customer”. Borrower will provide, promptly following any request therefor from the applicable Lender (through the Administrative Agent), information and documentation reasonably requested by any Lender for purposes of compliance with applicable “know your customer” and anti-money-laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the Patriot Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

Section 8.08. Constituent Document Amendments. Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any proposed amendment, change, modification or supplement to the Constituent Documents of any Loan Party prior to enacting such proposed amendment, and the Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower within seven (7) Business Days of receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, whether the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably, deems such proposed amendment to be a material amendment adversely affecting the rights of the Lenders in the Collateral (a “Material Amendment”). Any amendment deemed a Material Amendment will require the consent of the Administrative Agent. Borrower will deliver to the Administrative Agent, promptly after the effectiveness thereof, a copy of any amendment made to such Loan Party’s Constituent Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Loan Party may, without the consent of the Administrative Agent (and without submitting the proposed amendment to the Administrative Agent for determination as described above), amend its Constituent Documents to cure any ambiguity, correct or supplement any provision of such Constituent Document which is incomplete or inconsistent with any other provision thereof, correct any printing, stenographic or clerical error or effect changes of an administrative or ministerial nature or to fix any other obvious error or any other error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, so long as such changes do not materially or adversely affect the rights of the Lenders.

Neither the Sponsor Parties nor Investment Advisor (with respect to the Investment Advisor, solely as such agreement or contract relates to the Sponsor Parties) shall be a party to any agreement or contract (other than the Loan Documents) that contains a restriction, including in its Constituent Documents, which limits its ability to make Distributions in repayment of the Obligations and would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 8.16. Use of Proceeds. No Loan, nor the proceeds from any Loan, will be used, directly or knowingly indirectly, or lent, contributed, provided or otherwise made available directly or knowingly indirectly (a) to any Person for the purpose of funding any activity or business in any Designated Jurisdiction or of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any other manner that will result in any violation by

The obligations of the Lenders under this clause (c) are several.

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such party through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final, non-appealable judgment resulting from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such party.

(iii) amend the terms of this Section 10.02 or change the percentages specified in the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders which are required to amend, waive or modify any rights hereunder or otherwise make any determination or grant any consent hereunder; or

(iv) change the order of application of any reduction in the Commitments or any prepayment of Loans among from the application thereof set forth in the applicable provisions of Section 2.05(b), Section 2.15, Section 9.03 or Section 10.10; and

70

Notwithstanding the above: (A) no provisions of Article 11 or any other provision affecting the rights or duties of, or any fees or other amounts payable to, the Administrative Agent may be amended or modified without the consent of the Administrative Agent and (B) Article 7 and Article 8 specify the requirements for waivers of the affirmative covenants and negative covenants listed therein, and any amendment to any provision of Article 7 or Article 8 shall require the consent of the Lenders that are specified therein as required for a waiver thereof.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitments of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender; and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above and in Article 8: (1) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersede the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein; and (2) the Required Lenders may consent to allow Borrower to use cash collateral in the context of a bankruptcy, restructuring or insolvency proceeding. The Administrative Agent and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ may agree to the modification of any term of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to correct any printing, stenographic or clerical errors or omissions that are inconsistent with the terms hereof.

Section 10.03. Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement. No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against any Loan Party shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 9.02 for the benefit of all Lenders; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit: (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as the Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; (b) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 10.09 (subject to the terms of Section 10.09); or (c) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; then: (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.02; and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 10.10, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

71

Section 10.04. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and (except for financial statements, other related informational documents and routine communications, which may be sent by first-class mail, postage prepaid) shall be personally delivered or sent by prepaid courier, by overnight, registered or certified mail (postage prepaid), by electronic mail or by facsimile, and shall be deemed given when received by the intended recipient thereof. Unless otherwise specified in a notice sent or delivered in accordance with this Section 10.04, all notices and other communications shall be given to the parties hereto at their respective addresses (or to their respective facsimile numbers or electronic mail addresses) indicated in Schedule 1.01 (in the case of the Lender) or Schedule 10.04 (in the case of Borrower).

Section 10.05. Successors and Assigns.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender. No Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except: (i) by way of assignment in accordance with the provisions of clause (b) of this Section 10.05; (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of clause (e) of this Section 10.05; or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of clause (f) of this Section 10.05 (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 (e) of this Section 10.05 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by the Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and any other Loan Document (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

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

(B) in any case not described in subclause (A) above, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 (and shall be in an integral multiple of $100,000); provided, however that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Assignee (or to an Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.

72

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned.

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except (A) the consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) shall be required unless: (1) an Event of Default under Section 9.01(a), 9.01(e) or 9.01(f) has occurred and is continuing or any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing for thirty (30) days at the time of such assignment; or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender; provided that, Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within fifteen (15) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender.

(iv) Assignment and Assumption Agreement. The parties to each assignment (but not Borrower) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, together with the Administrative Agent’s customary processing and recordation fee; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire.

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made: (A) to Borrower or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of Borrower; (B) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B); or (C) unless an Event of Default under Section 9.01(a), 9.01(e) or 9.01(f) has occurred and is continuing or any other Event of Default has been continuing for thirty (30) days at the time of such assignment, to an Ineligible Institution.

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

73

(c) Effect of Assignment. From and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement covering all of the assigning the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits and obligations of Sections 2.07, 2.09, 2.10 and 10.01 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 Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon request, Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender, and the applicable existing Note or Notes shall be returned to Borrower marked “Cancelled.” Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this clause (c) shall be (i) treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with clause (e) of this Section, provided that the conditions of clause (f) are satisfied with respect to such participation, or (ii) otherwise, null and void and of no effect.

(d) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Domestic Lending Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The parties intend that any interest in or with respect to the Loans under this Agreement be treated as being issued and maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of United States Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103-1(c) and Proposed Regulations Section 1.163-5 (and any successor provisions).

(e) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrower, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, Borrower, any Affiliate or Subsidiary thereof, or, unless an Event of Default under Section 9.01(a), 9.01(e) or 9.01(f) has occurred and is continuing or any other Event of Default has been continuing for thirty (30) days at the time of such participation, an Ineligible Institution) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of the Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that: (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged; (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (iii) Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 10.01(c) without regard to the existence of any participation.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any

74

amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to certain amendments, waivers or other modifications that increases the amount of the Loan participated by the Participant, decreases the rate of interest for any Loan participated by such Participant, extends the date of any scheduled repayment of principal (including the Stated Maturity Date) or interest on any Loan participated by the Participant or releases all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Agreement. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.07, Section 2.09, and Section 2.10 to the same extent as if it were such Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 10.05 (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.09(e) shall be delivered to the Lender who sells the participation) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant: (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 10.06 as if it were an assignee under clause (b) of this Section 10.05; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.07, Section 2.09 or Section 2.10 with respect to any participation, than the Lender from whom it acquired the applicable participation would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though it were a Lender. Such Lender shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, 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 the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Administrative Agent 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 the Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

Section 10.06. Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Loan Parties will maintain all information regarding the existence or terms of this Agreement and any information that it or they may receive from the other parties pursuant to this Agreement as confidential and shall not disclose such information to third parties (other than any party to a Loan Document) without the prior written consent of the applicable party, except for disclosure: (a) on a confidential basis to any Affiliate of such party or its or their respective officers, directors, managers, employees, representatives, agents, legal counsel, accountants and other professional advisors in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or other transactions among the parties hereto; (b) to regulatory officials or upon the order of or pursuant to the rules and regulations of any governmental authority having jurisdiction over such party; (c) required by Applicable Law (including the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) or in connection with any legal proceeding relating to the enforcement

75

of remedies hereunder; (d) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those in this Section, to another Person in connection with (i) a potential assignment or participation under Section 10.05 or (ii) any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder; (e) to prospective purchasers of Collateral after an Event of Default, (f) of information that has been previously disclosed publicly without breach of this provision or, to the knowledge of the disclosing party, any other confidentiality undertaking in favor of the other party; (g) in the case of any Sponsor Party, as required pursuant to the Constituent Documents of such party, or as deemed advisable or necessary by any legal or financial advisor, auditor or accountant of any Sponsor Party (or Affiliate thereof); (h) in connection with any audit by an independent public accountant of such party, provided such auditor thereto shall agree to preserve the confidentiality thereof; (i) to examiners or auditors of any applicable governmental authority which examines such party’s books and records while conducting such examination or audit; (j) as requested by the Securities and Exchange Commission; and (k) in the case of any Sponsor Party, on a confidential basis to investors and prospective investors (and their respective advisors) to the extent requested or as otherwise required pursuant to the Constituent Documents of such Sponsor Party; provided that, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall provide prompt written notice of any such disclosure under foregoing clause (b), (c) or (d) to the extent that such disclosure includes information related to the Portfolio Investments. Borrower and each Guarantor acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Agent is an affiliate within a corporate group (a “Bank Group”) which is a global provider of banking, financial, advisory, investment and funds management services, and that nothing contained in this Section 10.06 shall in any way inhibit, restrict or otherwise limit the business and other activities of any of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the related Bank Groups except to the extent provided in this Section 10.06. Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement, to the extent confidential information is retained by the Administrative Agent or any Lender following such termination, the Administrative Agent and each such Lender agree to maintain the confidentiality of such confidential information in accordance with their applicable internal document retention policies and procedures and applicable law for at least two (2) years following the termination of this Agreement, which policies and procedures, as of the Closing Date, provide that information considered confidential shall be held on a confidential basis.

Section 10.07. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL CLAIMS AND CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

EACH OF THE LOAN PARTIES, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO ASSERT THE DOCTRINE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, TO ASSERT THAT IT IS NOT SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS OR TO OBJECT TO VENUE TO THE EXTENT ANY PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS SECTION. Nothing contained in this Section shall preclude the Administrative Agent or the Lenders from bringing any action or proceeding against any Loan Party to enforce any judgment against any such party arising out of or relating to this Agreement in the courts of any place where such party or any of its assets may be found or located. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE GENERAL JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, THE COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF.

76

(c) EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 10.04. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

Section 10.09. Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits constituting Collateral (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by any Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against any and all of the Obligations of Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations of Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff: (a) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.10 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; and (b) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of the Lenders and their Affiliates under this Section 10.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or its Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to notify Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

Section 10.10. Sharing of Payments by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff permitted hereunder or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Loans made by it, resulting in such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall:notify the Administrative Agent of such fact; and

(b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:

(i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii) the provisions of this Section 10.10 shall not be construed to apply to: (x) any payment made by or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender); or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to Borrower (as to which the provisions of this Section 10.10 shall apply).

Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may, to

the extent permitted by law, exercise against such Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation; provided that such participant shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 10.10 as though it were a Lender.

Section 10.11. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable under Applicable Law in any jurisdiction, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, which shall not affect any other provisions hereof or the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement shall conflict with or be inconsistent with any provision of any other Loan Documents, then the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall prevail.

Section 10.12. Survival of Agreements, Representations and Warranties. All agreements, representations and warranties made herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the closing and the extensions of credit hereunder and shall continue until payment and performance of any and all Obligations. Any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of any Lender shall not diminish the right of such Lender to rely thereon. Without limitation, the agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in Sections 2.07, 2.09, 2.10 and 10.01 shall survive the payment in full of all other Obligations.

Section 10.13. Execution in Counterparts; Electronic Execution.

Section 10.14. Complete Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, is intended by the parties as the final expression of their agreement regarding the subject matter hereof and as a complete and exclusive statement of the terms and conditions of such agreement. There are no third party beneficiaries of this Agreement.

Section 10.15. No Fiduciary Duties or Partnership; Limitation of Liability, Etc.

(a) The relationship between ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, on the one hand and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, is solely that of debtor and creditor, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders do not have any fiduciary or other special relationship with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, and no term or condition of any of the Loan Documents shall be construed so as to deem the relationship between Borrower and the Administrative Agent, any Lender or to be other than that of debtor and creditor. No joint venture or partnership is created by this Agreement or any other Loan Document between Borrower and any ▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇ claim shall be made by Borrower against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the Affiliates, directors, officers, employees or agents of the Administrative Agent or any Lender for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or under any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and Borrower waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in their favor.

(c) All attorneys, accountants, appraisers and other professional Persons and consultants retained by any Lender shall have the right to act exclusively in the interest of such Lender and shall have no duty of disclosure, duty of loyalty, duty of care or other duty or obligation of any type or nature whatsoever to Borrower or any of its shareholders or Affiliates or any other Person.

Section 10.16. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. EACH LOAN PARTY, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY ACTION ARISING OUT OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, REGARDLESS OF WHICH PARTY INITIATES SUCH ACTION OR ACTIONS.

79

Section 10.17. Maximum Interest. Regardless of any provision contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Lenders shall never be entitled to receive, collect or apply as interest on the Obligations any amount in excess of the Maximum Rate, and, in the event that the Lenders ever receive, collect or apply as interest any such excess, the amount which would be excessive interest shall be deemed to be a partial prepayment of principal and treated hereunder as such; and, if the principal amount of the Obligations is paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to Borrower. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingency exceeds the Maximum Rate, Borrower and the Lenders shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law: (a) characterize any nonprincipal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest; (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread, in equal parts, the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the Obligations so that the interest rate does not exceed the Maximum Rate; provided that, if the Obligations are paid and performed in full prior to the end of the full contemplated term thereof, and if the interest received for the actual period of existence thereof exceeds the Maximum Rate, the Lenders shall refund to Borrower the amount of such excess or credit the amount of such excess against the principal amount of the Obligations and, in such event, the Lenders shall not be subject to any penalties provided by any laws for contracting for, charging, taking, reserving or receiving interest in excess of the Maximum Rate. As used herein, the term “applicable law” shall mean the law in effect as of the date hereof; provided, however, that in the event there is a change in the law which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then the Loan Documents shall be governed by such new law as of its effective date.

Section 10.18. Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent from Borrower in the Agreement Currency, Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to promptly return the amount of any excess to Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

Section 10.19. Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and each Guarantor, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and each Guarantor and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify Borrower and each Guarantor in accordance with the Patriot Act.

Section 10.20. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that Borrower makes a payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff provided hereunder or the Administrative Agent or any Lender receives payment as proceeds of Collateral

80

or otherwise, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid, in whole or in part, to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then: (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect, together with all Collateral security therefor, as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment. If prior to any such invalidation, declaration, setting aside or requirement, this Agreement shall have been canceled or surrendered, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, discharge or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower in respect of the amount of the affected payment.

Section 10.21. [Reserved].

Section 10.22. Headings. The Article and Section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

Section 10.23. Limitation on Liability. Regardless of whether this Agreement or any other Loan Document or certificate delivered in connection herewith or therewith expressly so states, any certificate or other document signed by an officer or other authorized signatory of a Loan Party shall be deemed signed by such Person in his or her capacity as an officer or agent of the applicable Loan Party, and not in his or her individual capacity.

Section 10.24. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

ARTICLE 11

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 11.01. Appointment and Authority. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints JPM to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or the other Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article 11 are for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and Lenders; except as expressly provided herein, no Loan Party or any other Person shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions, nor shall such provisions impose any obligations on the Loan Parties or limit or impair any rights the Loan Parties may have under any Loan Document or Applicable Law.

Section 11.02. Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders.

Section 11.03. Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

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

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

(d) shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it: (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be necessary or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default (except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders) unless and until notice describing the same is given to the Administrative Agent by Borrower or a Lender; and

83

(e) shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into: (1) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (2) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith; (3) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; (4) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document; or (5) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 3 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

Section 11.04. Reliance by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) reasonably 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 reasonably 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 Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 11.05. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The applicable provisions of this Agreement 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 any syndication of the credit facility provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent, and in no event shall any such delegation relieve the Administrative Agent of its obligations under the Loan Documents.

Section 11.06. Resignation of the Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time resign upon twenty (20) days’ prior written notice to the Lenders and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, provided that, so long as no Event of Default under Section 9.01(a), 9.01(e) or 9.01(f) has occurred and is continuing or any other Event of Default has occurred and has been continuing for thirty (30) days, any resignation by the Administrative Agent shall require the prior written consent of the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, to appoint a successor reasonably approved by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (provided that Borrower shall have no approval right if an Event of Default under Section 9.01(a), 9.01(e) or 9.01(f) has occurred and is continuing or any other Event of Default has occurred and has been continuing for thirty (30) days), which shall be a financial institution in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such financial institution with an office in the United States, including any of the Lenders (excluding Defaulting Lenders and

84

Ineligible Institutions) and who shall be a “U.S. person” and a “financial institution” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(ii). If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above with the consent of the Borrower. Whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date (except that in the case of any Collateral held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such Collateral until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed or other arrangements satisfactory to Required Lenders are made to hold such Collateral).

(b) If the Person serving as the Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, then in each case, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to Borrower and such Person remove such Person as the Administrative Agent and, with the consent of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, appoint a successor satisfying the requirements of clause (a) above in this Section. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders and Borrower) (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): (i) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such Collateral until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed); and (ii) 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 Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 2.09(g) 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 all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removedAdministrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section and Section 11.01 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

85

Section 11.07. Acknowledgement of Lenders.

(a) Each Lender represents and warrants that (i) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility, (ii) it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and in providing other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such Lender, in each case in the ordinary course of business, and not for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument (and each Lender agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing), (iii) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder and (iv) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide such other facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning Loan Parties and their Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

(b) Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement on the Closing Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Closing Date.

(c) (i) Each Lender hereby agrees that (x) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (y) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender under this Section 11.07(c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(ii) Each Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Lender agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender shall

promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

(iii) Each Loan Party hereby agrees that (x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) are not recovered from any Lender that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (y) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by any Borrower or any other Loan Party; provided that this Section 11.07(c) shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the Obligations of any Borrower relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the Obligations that would have been payable had such Payment not been made by the Administrative Agent; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, the immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent any such Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from Borrower for the purpose of making such Payment.

Each party’s obligations under this Section 11.07(c) shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.

Section 11.08. The Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, restructuring, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lenders, and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Section 2.03(b) and otherwise hereunder) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

(c) any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator, restructuring officer or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent hereunder.

87

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

Section 11.09. Collateral Matters. Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document: (a) upon payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) or (b) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document or as a result of the exercise of remedies hereunder or thereunder. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release its interest in particular types or items of property pursuant to this Section 11.09.

Section 11.10. Posting Communications.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any communications available to the Lenders by posting the communications on IntraLinksTM, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).

(b) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Closing Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders and Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure, that the Administrative Agent is not responsible for approving or vetting the representatives or contacts of any Lender that are added to the Approved Electronic Platform, and that there may be confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders and Loan Parties hereby approves distribution of the communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.

(c) THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF

88

ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.

(d) Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that communications have been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.

(e) Each of the Lenders and Loan Parties agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by the Applicable Laws) shall not be obligated to, store the communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.

(f) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

Section 11.11. Credit Bidding. The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any the Applicable Laws. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Secured Parties’ ratable interests in the Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Required Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 10.02 of this Agreement), (i) the Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Secured Parties, ratably on account of the relevant Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership interests, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle

89

and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (ii) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Secured Parties pro rata with their original interest in such Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Obligations shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Obligations of each Secured Party are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Secured Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or any designee of the Secured Party which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

(iii) Each Grantor irrevocably and unconditionally authorizes the Administrative Agent to file at any time and from time to time such financing statements with respect to the Collateral of such Grantor naming the Administrative Agent as secured party and such Grantor as debtor, as Administrative Agent may reasonably require, and including any other information with respect to such Grantor or otherwise required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC of such jurisdiction as Administrative Agent may reasonably determine, together with any amendment and continuations with respect thereto, which authorization shall apply to all financing statements filed on, prior to or after the date hereof. Each Grantor hereby ratifies and approves all financing statements naming Administrative Agent as secured party and such Grantor, as the case may be, as debtor and identifying the Collateral of such Grantor (and any continuations or amendments with respect to such financing statements) filed by or on behalf of Administrative Agent prior to the date hereof and ratifies and confirms the authorization of Administrative Agent to file such financing statements (and continuations or amendments, if any). Each Grantor hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to adopt on behalf of such Grantor any symbol required for authenticating any electronic filing. In the event that the description of the collateral in any financing statement naming Administrative Agent as secured party and such Grantor as debtor includes assets and properties of such Grantor that do not at any time constitute Collateral of such Grantor, whether hereunder, under any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise, the filing of such financing statement shall nonetheless be deemed authorized by such Grantor to the extent of the Collateral of such Grantor included in such description and it shall not render the financing statement ineffective as to any of the Collateral of such Grantor or otherwise affect the financing statement as it applies to any of the Collateral of such Grantor.

(b) Maintenance of Records. To the extent required by the Constituent Documents of such Grantor or applicable law, including the Investment Company Act, each Grantor shall keep and maintain, at its own cost and expense, records of the Collateral that are complete in all material respects, including a record of any and all payments received and any and all credits granted with respect to the Collateral.

(c) Indemnification. The provisions of Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement shall apply hereunder with respect to the Borrower mutatis mutandis.

(d) [Reserved].

(e) Limitations on Issuance of New Equity Interests. The Borrower shall not issue any further Equity Interests, or admit any Person as an additional or substitute member of the Borrower, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent,

7

other than Equity Interests issued to Parent and constituting Parent Collateral hereunder. Investment Subsidiary shall not issue any further Equity Interests, or admit any Person as an additional or substitute member of Investment Subsidiary, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, other than Equity Interests issued to the Borrower or the Parent and constituting Collateral hereunder.

(i) Further Identification of Collateral. Each Grantor will, if reasonably requested in writing by Administrative Agent, furnish to Administrative Agent, statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral of such Grantor, all in such detail as Administrative Agent may reasonably specify.

(j) Notices. Each Grantor will advise Administrative Agent promptly, in reasonable detail, upon becoming aware of any Lien (other than any Permitted Lien) on the Collateral of such Grantor affecting, involving or relating to the Collateral of such Grantor.

(k) Reincorporation. No Grantor shall, without providing ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) and without filing such financing statements and amendments to any previously filed financing statements as Administrative Agent may reasonably require, reincorporate or reorganize itself under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, registered or organized as of the date hereof; provided that, in any event, any such notice shall be valid and effective only to the extent such reincorporation or reorganization is otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(l) Terminations; Amendments Not Authorized. Each Grantor acknowledges that such Grantor is not authorized to, and agrees that it will not, file any amendment or termination statement with respect to any financing statement filed by Administrative Agent without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, subject to such Grantor’s rights under Section 9-509(d)(2) of the UCC.

5. Administrative Agent’s Rights; Limitations on Administrative Agent’s Obligations.

(a) It is expressly agreed by each Grantor that, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, such Grantor shall remain liable under each of its Contractual Obligations and all other contracts relating to the Collateral of such Grantor to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder. Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation or liability under any Contractual Obligations and all other contracts relating to the Collateral of such Grantor by reason of or arising out of this Security Agreement or the granting herein of a Lien thereon or the receipt by Administrative Agent of any payment relating to any such Contractual Obligation and all other contracts relating to the Collateral of such Grantor pursuant hereto. Administrative Agent shall not be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any Contractual Obligations and all other contracts relating to the Collateral of such Grantor, or to make any payment, or to

8

make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any Contractual Obligations and all other contracts relating to the Collateral of such Grantor, or to present or file any claims, or to take any action to collect or enforce any performance or the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

(b) Administrative Agent may at any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default without prior notice to any Grantor, notify any depositary bank or securities intermediary under any Account Control Agreement that all property in the related Securities Accounts or Deposit Accounts shall be transferred directly to Administrative Agent or that Administrative Agent is exercising any of its remedies with respect thereto, or upon the request of Administrative Agent, each Grantor shall so notify such Persons. Upon the exercise of such remedies, Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Grantors. Once any such notice has been given to such Persons, so long as any Event of Default shall be continuing, no Grantor shall give any contrary instructions to such Persons without Administrative Agent’s prior written consent.

(c) At any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall use good faith efforts to conduct repossessions, retentions or sales of Collateral in accordance with Applicable Law.

6. Administrative Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its true and lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, in its name or otherwise, for the sole use and benefit of the Secured Parties, but at Borrower’s expense, to the extent permitted by law to exercise, at any time and from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s discretion while an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute and deliver any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable, in the discretion of Administrative Agent, to accomplish the purposes of the Loan Documents, without prior notice to or assent by any Grantor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such appointment as true and lawful attorney shall include any and all of the following powers with respect to all or any of the Collateral:

(a) to demand, sue for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all monies due or to become due upon or by virtue thereof;

(b) in the name of any Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, to take possession of and indorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of monies due with respect to any Collateral and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due with respect to any Collateral whenever payable;

(c) to direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct; to ask or demand for,

9

collect, receive and give acquittance for payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; to commence, compound and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any proceeds thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against any Grantor with respect to any Collateral; to settle, compromise, compound, prosecute, defend or adjust any suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases or to extend the time of payment of any or all thereof and to make any allowance or other adjustment with reference thereto as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate; to cause any Grantor to intervene in any suit, action or proceeding with respect thereto; and generally, to sell, charge, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at the Administrative Agent’s option and the Borrower’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Administrative Agent’s, ▇▇▇▇▇ thereon for the ratable benefit of the Administrative Agent and to effect the intent of this Security Agreement, all as fully and effectively as the applicable Grantor might do,

(d) to take any other action deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all moneys due to the Administrative Agent, and

(e) to demand that any Grantor take or cause to be taken any and all action and to execute, amend or modify or cause to be executed, amended or modified any and all agreements, documents and instruments, that may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Security Agreement.

The powers of attorney granted hereunder are each coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until the Termination Date; provided that, if payment of any of the Secured Obligations are rescinded, set aside, avoided, disgorged or otherwise required to be returned by Administrative Agent, the powers of attorney granted hereunder shall thereupon be deemed to be reinstated as if such payment had never occurred. The powers conferred on Administrative Agent under the powers of attorney hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Administrative Agent to exercise any such powers. Anything in this Section 6 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

NEITHER ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ATTORNEYS, OR REPRESENTATIVES SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE TO ANY GRANTOR FOR ANY ACT OR FAILURE TO ACT UNDER ANY POWER OF ATTORNEY OR OTHERWISE, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT DAMAGES ARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO THEIR OWN BAD FAITH, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR THE BAD FAITH, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS,

10

ATTORNEYS, OR REPRESENTATIVES, IN EACH CASE AS DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN A FINAL, NON-APPEALABLE DECISION NOR FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

7. Remedies; Rights upon Event of Default.

(a) In addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and under any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any of the Secured Obligations, and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement and any other restrictions contained in the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Administrative Agent may exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or any other Applicable Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor expressly agrees that in such event Administrative Agent, (1) shall have the right to notify any party of its security interest in the Collateral and (2) without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notices specified in this Security Agreement, including as to time and place of public or private sale) to or upon such Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the UCC and other Applicable Law):

(i) may forthwith enter upon the premises of such Grantor where any Collateral of such Grantor is located through self-help, without judicial process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving such Grantor or any other Person notice and opportunity for a hearing on Administrative Agent’s claim or action and may collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral of such Grantor, or any part thereof, and may forthwith sell, license, assign, give an option or options to purchase, or sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver such Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at a public or private sale or sales, to the highest bidder, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk; provided that Administrative Agent reserves the right to reject any and all bids at such sales which, in its reasonable discretion, it shall deem inadequate;

(ii) Administrative Agent shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase for its benefit, the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption such Grantor hereby releases; and

(iii) such sales may be adjourned and continued from time to time with or without notice.

Administrative Agent shall have the right to conduct such sales on any Grantor’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use such Grantor’s premises without charge for such time or times as Administrative Agent reasonably deems necessary or advisable.

11

Without limiting the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to foreclose, sell or otherwise transfer the Equity Interests in Borrower and Investment Subsidiary. Upon such delivery, the Borrower or Investment Subsidiary, as applicable, shall cause the transfer to be registered in its books maintained for the purpose of registering the transfer of limited liability company interests. The Administrative Agent or its designee shall be admitted to the Borrower or Investment Subsidiary, as applicable, as a member of the Borrower or Investment Subsidiary, as applicable, upon its execution of an instrument signifying its agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of the limited liability company agreement of the Borrower or Investment Subsidiary, as applicable, as provided in such agreement with all of the rights of a member thereunder. To the extent the consent of any other member of the Borrower or Investment Subsidiary is required to admit the Administrative Agent or its designee as a member of the Borrower or the Investment Subsidiary, as applicable, in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the parties hereto shall cause such member to consent to such admission.

(b) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Grantor further agrees, at Administrative Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral of such Grantor and make it available to Administrative Agent at a place or places designated by Administrative Agent which are reasonably convenient to Administrative Agent and such Grantor, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. Until Administrative Agent is able to effect a sale or other disposition of the Collateral of such Grantor, Administrative Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) to hold or use the Collateral of such Grantor, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving the Collateral of such Grantor or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to any Grantor to maintain or preserve the rights of such Grantor as against third parties with respect to the Collateral of such Grantor while the Collateral of such Grantor is in the possession of Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of the Collateral of such Grantor and to enforce any of Administrative Agent’s remedies, with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment. Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale to the Secured Obligations as follows:

first, to pay the expenses of such sale or other disposition, including fees and expenses to agents of and counsel for the Administrative Agent, and any other amounts then due to the Administrative Agent payable or reimbursable under the Loan Documents;

second, to payment of all accrued unpaid interest on the Secured Obligations (including, without limitation, interest accrued at the Default Rate) ratably among the Secured Parties;

12

third, to payment of principal of the Secured Obligations ratably among the Secured Parties;

fourth, to payment, on a pari passu basis, of any other amounts owing constituting Secured Obligations and interest on the foregoing, in each case ratably among the Secured Parties; and

fifth, any remainder shall be for the account of and paid to the applicable Grantor or whoever else may be lawfully entitled thereto.

(c) To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Administrative Agent, the Secured Parties and their Related Parties arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral of such Grantor except to the extent they arise out of the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent or such Secured Parties (as determined by a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction). Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral of such Grantor are insufficient to pay all Secured Obligations, including any reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by Administrative Agent to collect such deficiency.

(d) To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Administrative Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for Administrative Agent to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by Administrative Agent to prepare the Collateral for disposition, to fail to obtain third party consents, for access to the Collateral to be disposed of, if not required by Applicable Law, or to obtain or, if not required by Applicable Law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of the Collateral to be collected or disposed of, to fail to exercise collection remedies against Persons obligated on the Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against the Collateral, to advertise dispositions of the Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as either Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of the Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, to dispose of the Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, or to the extent commercially reasonable, to obtain at a reasonable cost given the nature of the subject transaction(s) the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Administrative Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 7(d) is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Administrative Agent would not be commercially unreasonable in Administrative Agent’s exercise of remedies against

13

the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Administrative Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 7(d). Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 7(d) shall be construed to grant any rights to either Grantor or to impose any duties on Administrative Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Security Agreement or by Applicable Law in the absence of this Section 7(d).

(e) Administrative Agent shall not be required to make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, any Grantor, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Secured Obligations, or to pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof. Administrative Agent shall not be required to marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the Secured Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any particular order, and all of its and their rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be cumulative. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against Administrative Agent, any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral of such Grantor made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Security Agreement, or otherwise.

8. Limitation on Administrative Agent’s Duties in Respect of Collateral. Administrative Agent shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Administrative Agent shall not have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of Administrative Agent, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Administrative Agent will be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession or control if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property, and will not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, except to the extent that such liability arises from the Administrative Agent’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgement.

9. Lien Absolute. All rights of Administrative Agent and any other Secured Party hereunder and all obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional regardless of:

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument governing or evidencing any Secured Obligations;

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any part of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument governing or evidencing any Secured Obligations;

14

(c) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral or any release, amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty for all or any of the Secured Obligations;

(d) the insolvency of any Loan Party; or

(e) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Grantor, other than termination of this Security Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof.

10. No Impairment; Waiver of Notice. Each Grantor consents and agrees that Administrative Agent may at any time, or from time to time, in its discretion (but subject to Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement): renew, extend or change the time of payment, or the manner, place or terms of payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations; and exchange, release or surrender all or any of the Collateral or any part thereof, by whomsoever pledged or deposited that is now or may hereafter be held by Administrative Agent in connection with all or any of the Secured Obligations, all in such manner and upon such terms as Administrative Agent may deem proper and without notice to or further assent from any Grantor, it being hereby agreed that each Grantor shall be and remain bound upon this Security Agreement, irrespective of the value or condition of any of the Collateral and notwithstanding any such modification, and notwithstanding also that the Secured Obligations may, at any time, exceed the aggregate principal amount thereof set forth in the Credit Agreement, or any other agreement governing any Secured Obligations. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor hereby waives notice of acceptance of this Security Agreement and also waives presentment, demand, protest and notice of dishonor of any and all of the Secured Obligations and promptness in commencing suit against any party hereto or liable hereon and in giving any notice to (except as expressly provided for herein) or of making any claim or demand hereunder upon such Grantor. To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Grantor agrees that no act or omission of any kind on Administrative Agent’s part shall in any event affect or impair the security interests granted under this Security Agreement.

11. Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any Grantor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to Applicable Law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, restored or returned.

15

12. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by Administrative Agent in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. None of the terms or provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, altered, modified or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by Administrative Agent and each Grantor.

13. GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; CHOICE OF FORUM.

(a) THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT AND ALL CLAIMS AND CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(b) Pursuant to Section 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law, all actions or proceedings arising in connection with this Security Agreement shall be tried and litigated in state or Federal courts located in the Borough of Manhattan, New York City, State of New York. EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO ASSERT THE DOCTRINE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, TO ASSERT THAT IT IS NOT SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS OR TO OBJECT TO VENUE TO THE EXTENT ANY PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS SECTION.

(c) Nothing contained in this Section 13 shall preclude the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party from bringing any action or proceeding against any Loan Party to enforce any judgment against any such party arising out of or relating to this Agreement in the courts of any place where such party or any of its assets may be found or located. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE EXCLUSIVE GENERAL JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, THE COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF.

(d) EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 10.04 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT. NOTHING IN THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

16

14. Successors and Assigns. This Security Agreement and all obligations of any Grantor hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of such Grantor (including any debtor-in-possession on behalf of such Grantor) and shall, together with the rights and remedies of the Secured Parties hereunder inure to the benefit of the Secured Parties, all future holders of any instrument evidencing any of the Secured Obligations and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No sales of participations, other sales, assignments, transfers or other dispositions by any Secured Party of any agreement governing or instrument evidencing the Secured Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein permitted pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement or that occur by operation of law shall in any manner impair the Lien granted to the Secured Parties hereunder. No Grantor may assign, sell, hypothecate or otherwise transfer any interest in or obligation under this Security Agreement except in connection with an assignment of the Credit Agreement permitted pursuant to Section 10.05 thereof.

15. Section Titles. The Section titles contained in this Security Agreement are and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between the parties hereto.

16. Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever it is provided herein that any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be given to or served upon any of the parties by any other party, or whenever any of the parties desires to give and serve upon any other party any communication with respect to this Security Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall be in writing and shall be given in the manner, and deemed received, as provided for in the Credit Agreement.

17. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Security Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision of this Security Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under Applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Security Agreement. This Security Agreement is to be read, construed and applied together with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents which, taken together, set forth the complete understanding and agreement of Secured Parties and the Grantors with respect to the matters referred to herein and therein.

18. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION UNDER THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY ACTION ARISING OUT OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, REGARDLESS OF WHICH PARTY INITIATES SUCH ACTION OR ACTIONS.

19. Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be authenticated in any number of separate counterparts, all of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same agreement.

17

20. Benefit of the Secured Parties.
