Each Eurodollar Advance under the Revolving Credit Facility shall continue as a Eurodollar Advance of such Type until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time such Eurodollar Advance shall be automatically continued as a Eurodollar Advance with an Interest Period of one month unless such Eurodollar Advance shall have been either (a) prepaid in accordance with Section 2.6, (b) continued as a Eurodollar Advance for another Interest Period in accordance with this Section 2.2.4 or (c) converted into an ABR Advance in accordance with this Section 2.2.4. Subject to the terms of Section 2.5, the Borrower may elect from time to time to convert and/or continue the Rate Option applicable to all or any part of a Revolving Credit Ratable Advance under the Revolving Credit Facility into another Rate Option; provided that any conversion or continuation of any Eurodollar Advance shall be made on, and only on, the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (a “Rate Option Notice”) of each conversion of a ABR Advance under the Revolving Credit Facility into a Eurodollar Advance, or continuation of a Eurodollar Advance or the conversion of a Eurodollar Advance, not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) (x) on the Business Day of the conversion of a Eurodollar Advance into an ABR Advance or (y) at least two Business Days prior to the date of the requested conversion or continuation of a Revolving Credit Ratable Advance into or as a Eurodollar Advance, specifying:

(i) the requested date, which shall be a Business Day, of such conversion or continuation;

(ii) the aggregate amount and Rate Option applicable to the Revolving Credit Ratable Advance which is to be converted or continued; and

(iii) the amount and Rate Option(s) of Revolving Credit Ratable Advance(s) into which such Revolving Credit Ratable Advance is to be converted or continued and, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Eurodollar Advance, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto (which shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.2.6).

2.2.5. Limitations. Revolving Credit Ratable Advances under the Revolving Credit Facility shall be subject to the applicable limitations set forth in Section 2.5.

2.2.6. Interest Period. The Interest Period of a Eurodollar Advance may not end later than the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date nor, with respect to the portion of a Eurodollar Advance held by a Revolving Credit Declining Lender, later than the Revolving Credit Declining Lender’s Termination Date of such Revolving Credit Declining Lender.

2.3. Competitive Bid Advances.

2.3.1. Competitive Bid Option. In addition to Revolving Credit Ratable Advances pursuant to Section 2.2, but subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the limitation set forth in Section 2.1.1(b)(i) as to the maximum aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Credit Advances and Letter of Credit Obligations hereunder and the limitation in Section 2.1.1(b)(ii) as to the maximum aggregate amount of all outstanding Competitive Bid Advances), the

Borrower may, as set forth in this Section 2.3, request the Revolving Credit Lenders, prior to the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date, to make offers to make Competitive Bid Advances to the Borrower. Each Revolving Credit Lender may, but shall have no obligation to, make any such offer in the manner set forth in this Section 2.3.

2.3.2. Competitive Bid Quote Request. When the Borrower wishes to request offers to make Competitive Bid Loans under this Section 2.3, it shall transmit to the Administrative Agent (whether or not it is the Competitive Bid Agent) by telecopy a Competitive Bid Quote Request substantially in the form of Exhibit M so as to be received no later than (i) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date proposed therein, in the case of a Eurodollar Auction or (ii) at least two (2) Business Days (or, if so agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, one (1) (but not less than one (1)) Business Day) prior to the Borrowing Date proposed therein, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction. The Competitive Bid Quote Request shall specify whether the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be the Competitive Bid Agent with respect thereto, and, if the Administrative Agent is the Competitive Bid Agent, the Borrower shall deliver the Competitive Bid Quote Request to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the day on which it is required to be delivered. Each Competitive Bid Quote Request shall specify:

(i) the proposed Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day, for the proposed Competitive Bid Advance;

(ii) the aggregate principal amount of such proposed Competitive Bid Advance, which shall be not less than $10,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof;

(iii) whether the Competitive Bid Quotes requested are to set forth a Competitive Bid Margin or an Absolute Rate; and

(iv) the Competitive Bid Interest Period applicable thereto (which may not end after the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date).

The Borrower may request offers to make Competitive Bid Loans for more than one Competitive Bid Interest Period, but not more than five Competitive Bid Interest Periods, in a single Competitive Bid Quote Request. No Competitive Bid Quote Request shall be given within five (5) Business Days (or such other number of days as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree) of any Competitive Bid Quote Request that did not result in a Competitive Bid Advance being made. If the Administrative Agent is the Competitive Bid Agent, it may reject a Competitive Bid Quote Request that does not conform substantially to the form of Exhibit M and shall promptly notify the Borrower of such rejection by telecopy.

2.3.3. Invitation for Competitive Bid Quotes. Promptly and in any event before the close of business on the same Business Day of delivery of a Competitive Bid Quote Request that is not rejected pursuant to Section 2.3.2, the Competitive Bid Agent shall send to each of the Revolving Credit Lenders (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3.10) by telecopy an Invitation for Competitive Bid Quotes substantially in the form of Exhibit N hereto, which shall constitute an invitation by the Borrower to each such Revolving Credit Lender to submit Competitive Bid Quotes offering to make the Competitive Bid Loans to which such Competitive Bid Quote Request relates in accordance with this Section 2.3.

2.3.4. Submission and Contents of Competitive Bid Quotes.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3.10, each Revolving Credit Lender may, in its sole discretion, submit a Competitive Bid Quote containing an offer or offers to make Competitive Bid Loans in response to any Invitation for Competitive Bid Quotes. Each Competitive Bid Quote must comply with the requirements of this Section 2.3.4 and must be submitted to the Competitive Bid Agent by telecopy at its offices specified in or pursuant to Article XIV not later than (i) 10:00 a.m. (New York time) at least three Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date, in the case of a Eurodollar Auction or (ii) 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the proposed Borrowing Date, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction (or, in either case upon reasonable prior notice to the Revolving Credit Lenders, such other time and date as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree); provided that, if the Administrative Agent is the Competitive Bid Agent, Competitive Bid Quotes submitted by the Administrative Agent as a Lender may only be submitted if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower of the terms of the offer or offers contained therein not later than 30 minutes prior to the latest time at which the relevant Competitive Bid Quotes must be submitted by the other Revolving Credit Lenders. Subject to Articles V and IX, any Competitive Bid Quote so made shall be irrevocable except with the written consent of the Competitive Bid Agent given on the instructions of the Borrower (if the Borrower is not the Competitive Bid Agent).

(b) Each Competitive Bid Quote shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit L and shall in any case specify:

(i) the proposed Borrowing Date, which shall be the same as that set forth in the applicable Invitation for Competitive Bid Quotes;

(ii) the principal amount of the Competitive Bid Loan for which each such offer is being made, which principal amount (A) may be greater than, less than or equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment of the quoting Revolving Credit Lender, (B) must be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and (C) may not exceed the principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans for which offers were requested;

(iii) in the case of a Eurodollar Auction, the Competitive Bid Margin offered for each such Competitive Bid Loan;

(iv) the minimum amount, if any, of the Competitive Bid Loan which may be accepted by the Borrower, which amount shall not be less than $1,000,000;

(v) in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction, the Absolute Rate offered for each such Competitive Bid Loan;

(vi) the maximum aggregate amount, if any, of Competitive Bid Loans offered by the quoting Revolving Credit Lender which may be accepted by the Borrower; and

(vii) the identity of the quoting Revolving Credit Lender.

(i) is not substantially in the form of Exhibit L or does not specify all of the information required by Section 2.3.4(b);

(ii) contains qualifying, conditional or similar language, other than any such language contained in Exhibit L;

(iii) proposes terms other than or in addition to those set forth in the applicable Invitation for Competitive Bid Quotes; or

(iv) arrives after the time set forth in Section 2.3.4(a).

If any Competitive Bid Quote shall be rejected pursuant to this Section 2.3.4(c), then the Competitive Bid Agent shall notify the relevant Revolving Credit Lender of such rejection as soon as practical and (if the Administrative Agent is the Competitive Bid Agent) shall promptly send a copy of the rejected Competitive Bid Quote to the Borrower.

2.3.5. Notice to Borrower. If the Administrative Agent is the Competitive Bid Agent, it shall promptly notify the Borrower of the terms (i) of any Competitive Bid Quote submitted by a Revolving Credit Lender that is in accordance with Section 2.3.4 and (ii) of any Competitive Bid Quote that amends, modifies or is otherwise inconsistent with a previous Competitive Bid Quote submitted by such Revolving Credit Lender with respect to the same Competitive Bid Quote Request. Any such subsequent Competitive Bid Quote shall be disregarded by the Competitive Bid Agent unless such subsequent Competitive Bid Quote specifically states that it is submitted solely to correct a manifest error in such former Competitive Bid Quote. If the Administrative Agent is the Competitive Bid Agent, its notice to the Borrower shall specify the aggregate principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans for which offers have been received for each Interest Period specified in the related Competitive Bid Quote Request and the respective principal amounts and Eurodollar Bid Rates or Absolute Rates, as the case may be, so offered. In addition, if the Administrative Agent is the Competitive Bid Agent, it shall send copies of each Competitive Bid Quote to the Borrower.

2.3.6. Acceptance and Notice by Borrower. Not later than (i) 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least three Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date, in the case of a Eurodollar Auction or (ii) 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the proposed Borrowing Date, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction (or, in either case upon reasonable prior notice to the Revolving Credit Lenders, such other time and date as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree), the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of its acceptance or rejection of the offers received by it pursuant to Section 2.3.4 or so notified to it pursuant to Section 2.3.5; provided, however, that the failure by the Borrower to give such notice to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be a rejection of all such offers. In the case of acceptance, such notice (a “Competitive Bid Borrowing Notice”) shall specify the aggregate principal amount of offers for each Interest Period that are accepted and (if the Administrative Agent is not the Competitive Bid Agent) shall include copies of each Competitive Bid Quote that is accepted. The Borrower may accept any Competitive Bid Quote in whole or in part (subject to the terms of Section 2.3.4(b)(iv) and (vi)); provided that:

(i) the aggregate principal amount of each Competitive Bid Advance may not exceed (but, within the limitations set forth in Section 2.3.2(ii), may be less than) the applicable amount set forth in the related Competitive Bid Quote Request;

(ii) acceptance of offers may only be made on the basis of ascending Eurodollar Bid Rates or Absolute Rates, as the case may be; and

(iii) the Borrower may not accept any offer that is described in Section 2.3.4(c) or that otherwise fails to comply with the requirements of this Agreement.

2.3.7. Allocation by Competitive Bid Agent. If offers are made by two or more Revolving Credit Lenders with the same Eurodollar Bid Rates or Absolute Rates, as the case may be, for a greater aggregate principal amount than the amount in respect of which offers are accepted for the related Interest Period, the principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans in respect of which such offers are accepted shall be allocated by the Competitive Bid Agent among such Revolving Credit Lenders as nearly as possible (in such multiples, not greater than $1,000,000, as the Competitive Bid Agent may deem appropriate) in

proportion to the aggregate principal amount of such offers; provided, however, that no Revolving Credit Lender shall be allocated a portion of any Competitive Bid Advance which is less than the minimum amount which such Revolving Credit Lender has stated in its applicable Competitive Bid Quote that it is willing to accept. Allocations by the Competitive Bid Agent of the amounts of Competitive Bid Loans shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall promptly, but in any event on the same Business Day, notify each Revolving Credit Lender of its receipt of a Competitive Bid Borrowing Notice and the aggregate principal amount of such Competitive Bid Advance allocated to each participating Revolving Credit Lender.

2.3.8. Limitations. Competitive Bid Advances shall be subject to the applicable limitations contained in the last sentence of Section 2.5.

2.3.9. Administration Fee. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent an administration fee, in the amount to be agreed, for each Competitive Bid Quote Request transmitted by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.3.2. Such administration fee shall be payable in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date hereafter and on the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment shall terminate or be canceled) for any period then ending for which such fee, if any, shall not have been theretofore paid.

2.3.10. Revolving Credit Declining Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (a) a Revolving Credit Declining Lender shall not be entitled to receive an Invitation for Competitive Bid Quotes inviting an offer for, and shall not offer to make and shall not make, a Competitive Bid Loan for a Competitive Bid Interest Period that expires later than its Revolving Credit Declining Lender’s Termination Date and (b) the Borrower may not request a Competitive Bid Advance for a Competitive Bid Interest Period expiring later than any Revolving Credit Declining Lender’s Termination Date if, following the making of such Competitive Bid Advance, the aggregate amount of all Competitive Bid Advances for Competitive Bid Interest Periods expiring later than such Revolving Credit Declining Lender’s Termination Date would exceed the amount to which the Competitive Bid Sublimit will be reduced upon such Revolving Credit Declining Lender’s Termination Date.

2.4. Undrawn Fee; Reductions in Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Revolving Credit Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender) an undrawn commitment fee (“Undrawn Fee”) at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Fee Rate on the average daily Aggregate Available Revolving Credit from the date hereof to and including the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date, payable quarterly in arrears, with such payment being due, with respect to any calendar quarter, not later than the fifth day after submission by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower of an invoice for such calendar quarter (or portion thereof in the case of the quarter ending September 30, 2012) and, with respect to each Lender, upon termination or expiration of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender. Any such Undrawn Fee shall be allocated ratably among the Revolving Credit Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender) ratably in respect of their respective Revolving Credit Ratable Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, Swing Line Advances and Competitive Bid Advances shall not be considered usage under the Revolving Credit Facility for purposes of the Undrawn Fee.

(b) The Borrower may permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment in whole, or in part in integral multiples of $10,000,000, upon at least five Business Days’ written notice to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall specify the amount of any such reduction, provided, however, that (i) the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment may not be reduced below the sum of (A) aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Revolving Credit Advances and Swing Line

Advances and (B) the Letter of Credit Obligations and (ii) any such reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment shall be allocated ratably among the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders (in their respective Revolving Credit Ratable Shares); provided that the Revolving Credit Commitments may be terminated in their entirety if all of the Revolving Credit Ratable Advances, the Competitive Bid Advances and Swing Line Advances have been repaid in full and no Letter of Credit Obligations are outstanding, except undrawn Alternative Letters of Credit, which shall be governed by a reimbursement agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Banks.

2.5. Minimum Amount of Each Revolving Credit Advance; Maximum Number of Revolving Credit Advances. Each Eurodollar Advance shall be in the minimum amount of $5,000,000 (and in multiples of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof), and each ABR Advance shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 (and in multiples of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof), provided, however, that any ABR Advance under the Revolving Credit Facility may be in the amount of the Aggregate Available Revolving Credit or in the amount necessary to repay a Swing Line Advance. Each Competitive Bid Advance shall be in the minimum amount provided for in Section 2.3. There shall be no more than five (5) Fixed Rate Advances outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility (in the aggregate) at any time; provided that in the case of one or more Facility Increases pursuant to Section 2.18, the number of Fixed Rate Advances permitted to remain outstanding at one time hereunder shall increase by one (1) Fixed Rate Advance for every increase of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment of $12,500,000 pursuant to such Facility Increase; provided further, however, that the total number of Eurodollar Advances shall not exceed 10 at any time.

2.6. Optional Principal Payments. The Borrower may from time to time prepay, without penalty or premium, all outstanding ABR Advances under the Revolving Credit Facility, or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, any portion of the outstanding ABR Advances under the Revolving Credit Facility upon one Business Day’s prior notice to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower may from time to time pay, upon three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.6 but without penalty or premium, (i) all of a Eurodollar Advance under the Revolving Credit Facility, or (ii) in a minimum aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (and provided such payment would not reduce the outstanding principal amount of such Eurodollar Advance under the Revolving Credit Facility to less than $5,000,000) any portion of a Eurodollar Advance under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Borrower may from time to time pay, prior to the last day of the applicable Competitive Bid Interest Period, upon three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent, all (but not less than all) of any Competitive Bid Loan having an initial Competitive Bid Interest Period of 90 days or longer and, with the approval of the Revolving Credit Lender holding such Competitive Bid Loan, any other Competitive Bid Loan, subject, in any case, to payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4 but without penalty or premium.

2.7. Funding. Not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Closing Date, each Lender shall make available its Loans in funds immediately available in New York to the Administration Agent at its address specified pursuant to Article XIV. Not later than or 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on any other Borrowing Date, each Lender (other than the Swing Line Lender which shall make Swing Line Advances as provided in Section 2.19(c)) shall make available its Loan or Loans in funds immediately available in New York to the Administrative Agent at its address specified pursuant to Article XIV. The Administrative Agent will make the funds so received from the applicable Lenders available to the Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s aforesaid address.

2.8. Changes in Interest Rate, Etc. Each ABR Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the date such Revolving Credit Advance is made or is automatically converted from a Fixed Rate Advance into a ABR Advance pursuant to Section 2.2.4, to but excluding the date it is paid or is converted into a Fixed Rate Advance pursuant to Section 2.2.4, at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate for such day. Changes in the rate of interest on that portion of any Revolving Credit Advance maintained as an ABR Advance will take effect simultaneously with each change in the Alternate Base Rate. Each Fixed Rate Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from and including the first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate applicable to such Fixed Rate Advance. No Interest Period may end after the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date or after the Revolving Credit Declining Lender’s Termination Date of any Revolving Credit Declining Lender.

2.9. Rates Applicable After Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.2, during the continuance of a Default or Unmatured Default (except for (a) Unmatured Defaults that will be cured, and that the Borrower certifies will be cured, by the use of the proceeds of a Revolving Credit Advance that the Borrower has requested hereunder or by the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit that the Borrower has requested hereunder or (b) Unmatured Defaults (other than the failure to pay any Obligation hereunder) that are not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect and that the Borrower certifies that it reasonably expects to cure before the date on which the same becomes a Default) the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Borrower (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 9.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility to changes in interest rates under the Revolving Credit Facility), declare that no Revolving Credit Advance may be made as, converted into or continued (after the then applicable Interest Period therefor) as a Fixed Rate Advance. During the continuance of a Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, declare that (i) each Fixed Rate Advance shall bear interest at the rate otherwise applicable to such Interest Period plus 2% per annum and (ii) each ABR Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate in effect from time to time plus 2% per annum, provided that, during the continuance of a Default under Section 8.5 or 8.6, the interest rates set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above shall be applicable to all Revolving Credit Advances without any election or action on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

2.10. Method and Allocation of Payments.

(a) All payments of the Obligations hereunder shall be made, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim, in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s address specified pursuant to Article XIV, or at any other Lending Installation of the Administrative Agent specified in writing by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, by 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date when due. Each payment delivered to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly by the Administrative Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds that the Administrative Agent received at its address specified pursuant to Article XIV or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by the Administrative Agent from such Lender.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.10(c), payments of principal and interest on Revolving Credit Advances received by Administrative Agent shall be allocated among the Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility based on their pro rata shares of such Revolving Credit Ratable Advances. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.10(c), payments of principal on any Competitive Bid Advance received by the Administrative Agent shall be paid, on a pro rata basis, to the Revolving Credit Lender or Revolving Credit Lenders holding the Competitive Bid Loan or Loans comprising such Revolving Credit Advance and payments of interest on such Competitive Bid Advance received by the Administrative

Agent shall be allocated to the Revolving Credit Lender or Revolving Credit Lenders that funded such Revolving Credit Advance, pro rata based on the amount of interest due each such Revolving Credit Lender on its outstanding principal (it being acknowledged that the rate of interest payable to Revolving Credit Lenders on the Competitive Bid Loans may differ). Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.10(c), payments of principal and interest on Swing Line Advances received by the Administrative Agent shall be paid solely to the Swing Line Lender. Payments made by the Borrower shall be applied to the Revolving Credit Advances or interest thereon (or both, as applicable) designated by the Borrower.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.10(b), if each of the conditions listed in Clauses (A) through (C) below exists on the date on which a payment on any Revolving Credit Loan is made then such payment shall be allocated on a pro-rata basis between the holders of the Competitive Bid Loans and holders of the Revolving Credit Ratable Loans based upon the respective amounts of such Competitive Bid Loans and Revolving Credit Ratable Loans outstanding if it is a payment of principal and shall be allocated on a pro rata basis between holders of the Competitive Bid Loans and holders of the Revolving Credit Ratable Loans based on the amount of interest due to such holders if it is a payment of interest: (A) a Default exists and is continuing and has not been waived, (B) the Revolving Credit Loans have been accelerated or otherwise shall have become due, and (C) the fractional share of one or more of the Revolving Credit Lenders in the total amount of all outstanding Competitive Bid Loans does not equal its Revolving Credit Ratable Share.

(d) If the Administrative Agent receives payments on any Business Day of any amounts payable to any Lender hereunder and fails to pay such amount to such Lender (i) on or before the close of business on such day if such payment was received by 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on such day or (ii) on or before the next succeeding Business Day if such payment was received after 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on such day of receipt, the Administrative Agent shall pay to such Lender interest on such unpaid amount at the Federal Funds Effective Rate until such amount is so paid to such Lender.

2.11. Noteless Agreement; Evidence of Indebtedness.

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

(b) The Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder and the Rate Option and Interest Period with respect thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and (b) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided however that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms.

(d) Any Lender may request that its Revolving Credit Ratable Loans be evidenced by a Revolving Credit Note and that its Competitive Bid Loans be evidenced by a Competitive Bid Note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender the Note or Notes payable to the order of such Lender in a form supplied by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 13.2) be

represented by one or more Notes payable to the order of the payee named therein or any assignee pursuant to Section 13.2, except to the extent that any such Lender or assignee subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in Sections 2.11(a) and (b) above.

2.12. Telephonic Notices. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to extend, convert or continue Revolving Credit Advances, effect selections of Rate Options and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices made by any person or persons the Administrative Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be an Authorized Officer acting on behalf of the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent a written confirmation of each telephonic notice signed by an Authorized Officer. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall govern absent manifest error.

2.13. Interest Payment Dates; Interest and Fee Basis. Interest accrued on each ABR Advance shall be payable monthly, with such payment being due, respect to any calendar month, not later than the fifth day after submission by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower of an invoice for such calendar month (or portion thereof in the case of September 2012). Interest accrued on each Fixed Rate Advance shall be payable on the last day of its applicable Interest Period, on any date on which the Fixed Rate Advance is prepaid, whether due to acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest accrued on each Fixed Rate Advance having an Interest Period longer than three months shall also be payable on the first day of each calendar quarter during such Interest Period. Interest and fees under this Agreement shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year except that interest on ABR Advances made at the Prime Rate and Absolute Rate Advances shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 365-day (or, if applicable, 366-day) year. Interest shall be payable for the day a Revolving Credit Advance is made but not for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is received prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York time) at the place of payment. If any payment of principal of or interest on a Revolving Credit Advance shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a principal payment, such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment.

2.14. Notification of Revolving Credit Advances, Interest Rates, Prepayments and Revolving Credit Commitment Reductions. Promptly after receipt thereof, (a) the Administrative Agent will notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the contents of each Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment reduction notice and Competitive Bid Borrowing Notice (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3.10), and (b) the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Credit Lender of each Borrowing Notice, Rate Option Notice and repayment notice received by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility. The Administrative Agent will notify each Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility of the interest rate applicable to each Eurodollar Advance under the Revolving Credit Facility promptly upon determination of such interest rate and will give each Lender prompt notice of each change in the Alternate Base Rate.

2.15. Lending Installations. Each Lender may book its Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility at any Lending Installation selected by such Lender and may change its Lending Installation from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation and the applicable Loans and Notes issued hereunder shall be deemed held by each Lender for the benefit of such Lending Installation. Each Lender may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in accordance with Article XIV, designate replacement or additional Lending Installations through which Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility will be made by it and for whose account Loan payments under the Revolving Credit Facility are to be made.

2.16. Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Borrower or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Administrative Agent prior to the date, or time of day in the case of same-day borrowings, on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Administrative Agent of (i) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Administrative Agent for the account of any of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of payment by a Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such day or (y) in the case of payment by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan.

2.17. Extension of Revolving Credit Facility Termination Dates. The Borrower may request, but not more than once in each fiscal year of the Borrower and on no more than five occasions in the aggregate after the Closing Date, an extension of the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date for all or a portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments by submitting a request for an extension to the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Request”). The Extension Request must be received no earlier than 120 days and no later than 60 days before an anniversary of the Closing Date. The Extension Request must specify the new Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date requested by the Borrower with respect thereto (“Extension Date”), which shall be not more than five years after the date of the Extension Request. The Extension Request shall be accompanied by a certificate, signed by the chief financial officer, controller or chief accounting officer of the Borrower, stating that on the date of the Extension Request, no Default or Unmatured Default has occurred and is continuing and that all of the representations and warranties in Article VI are true and correct in all material respects (except (i) to the extent any such representation or warranty is stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date and (ii) to the extent already qualified by materiality, in which case said representations and warranties are true and correct in all respects). On the Extension Date, the Borrower shall deliver a certificate, signed by the chief financial officer, controller or chief accounting officer of the Borrower, stating that on the Extension Date, no Default or Unmatured Default has occurred and is continuing and that all of the representations and warranties in Article VI are true and correct in all material respects (except (i) to the extent any such representation or warranty is stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date and (ii) to the extent already qualified by materiality, in which case said representations and warranties are true and correct in all respects). Promptly upon receipt of an Extension Request, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility of the contents thereof and shall request each Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility to approve the Extension Request (which approval may be given or withheld by each Lender in its sole discretion). If an Extension Request requests an extension of the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date, a Lender may, at its election, approve or deny an extension of the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date (it being understood that no Lender shall be under any obligation to approve an extension of the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date). Each Lender approving an Extension Request shall deliver its written approval no later than 30 days following such Extension Request. If written approval of the Required Lenders is not received by the Administrative Agent within such 30-day period, the Extension Request shall be denied. If such written approval of the Required Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility is received by the Administrative Agent within such 30-day period, the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date under the Revolving Credit Facility shall be

extended to the Extension Date specified in the Extension Request but only with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitments (the “Extended Revolving Credit Commitments”) of the Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility that have given such written approval (the “Extending Revolving Credit Lenders”). To the extent an extension fee is agreed among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Extending Revolving Credit Lenders, the Borrower shall pay such extension fee to the Extending Revolving Credit Lenders, payable on the effective date of such extension. Except to the extent that a Lender that did not give its written approval to such Extension Request under the Revolving Credit Facility (“Revolving Credit Declining Lender”) is replaced prior to its Revolving Credit Declining Lender’s Termination Date as provided in Section 2.20, then (a) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment shall be decreased by the Revolving Credit Commitment of each such Revolving Credit Declining Lender, which Revolving Credit Declining Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment shall terminate on the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date, as determined prior to such Extension Request (the “Revolving Credit Declining Lender’s Termination Date”) and (b) the Loans and all interest, fees and other amounts owed to such Revolving Credit Declining Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility with respect to which it is a Revolving Credit Declining Lender shall be paid in full on each such Revolving Credit Declining Lender’s Termination Date.

2.18. Facility Increase.

(a) The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, by notice to the Administrative Agent, request an increase (“Facility Increase”) in the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment (within the limitations herein provided), which notice shall set forth the amount of such requested Facility Increase. The Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment may be so increased (i) by having one or more New Revolving Credit Lenders become Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility and/or (ii) by having any one or more of the then existing Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility (at their respective election in their sole discretion), in each case, that have been approved by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender (such approvals by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), increase the amount of their Revolving Credit Commitments, provided that (i) each Facility Increase shall be in an amount not less than $5,000,000, (ii) after giving effect to the Facility Increase, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Credit Facility Limit, (iii) no Unmatured Event of Default or Default exists or would exist after giving effect to the Facility Increase, (iv) all financial covenants set forth in Section 7.27 would be satisfied on a pro forma basis for the most recent determination period, assuming that the Revolving Credit Advances outstanding on the date of effectiveness of the Facility Increase had been outstanding on the last day of such determination period and (v) any Facility Increase shall be on the terms and pursuant to the documentation applicable to the Revolving Credit Facility.

(b) As a condition to a Facility Increase, (i) the Borrower and each Additional Lender shall have executed and delivered a commitment and acceptance (the “Commitment and Acceptance”) substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto and the Administrative Agent shall have accepted and executed the same; (ii) if requested by an Additional Lender, the Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent the applicable Note payable to the order of such Additional Lender; (iii) the Guarantors shall have consented in writing to the Facility Increase and shall have agreed that their Guaranty Agreements continue in full force and effect; (iv) the Borrower and each Additional Lender shall otherwise have executed and delivered such other instruments and documents as the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably requested in connection with such Facility Increase; and (v) if requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent opinions of counsel (substantially similar to the forms of opinions provided for in Section 5.1(ix), modified to apply to the Facility Increase and to each Note, Commitment and Acceptance, and other documents executed and

delivered in connection with such Facility Increase). The form and substance of the documents required under clauses (i) through (v) above shall be fully acceptable to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall promptly provide written notice to all of the Lenders hereunder of the Facility Increase.

(c) Upon the effective date of any Facility Increase pursuant to the provisions hereof (the “Increase Date”), which Increase Date shall be mutually agreed upon by the Borrower, each applicable Additional Lender and the Administrative Agent, then: (A) such Additional Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received, without recourse or warranty, from the Revolving Credit Lenders party to this Agreement immediately prior to the Increase Date, an undivided interest and participation in any Letter of Credit then outstanding, ratably, such that each Revolving Credit Lender (including each Additional Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility) holds a participation interest in each such Letter of Credit in the amount of its then Revolving Credit Ratable Share thereof; and (B) each Additional Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility shall make its Revolving Credit Ratable Share of all Revolving Credit Ratable Advances made on or after such Increase Date and shall otherwise have all of the rights and obligations of a Revolving Credit Lender hereunder on and after such Increase Date.

(d) After the Increase Date, Administrative Agent shall promptly provide to each Lender a new Schedule 1 to this Agreement. In the event that there are any Revolving Credit Ratable Loans outstanding after giving effect to an increase in the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.18, upon notice from Administrative Agent to each Lender, the amount of such Revolving Credit Ratable Loans owing to each Lender shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the new Revolving Credit Ratable Share of Lenders. If, as a result of any such adjustment to the amount of Revolving Credit Ratable Loans owing to any Lender, any payment of all or a portion of any Eurodollar Loan owing to any such Lender occurs on a day which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the affected Lenders any loss or cost incurred by such Lenders resulting therefrom in accordance with Section 3.6.

(e) Nothing contained herein shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment or agreement on the part of any Lender to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder at any time or a commitment or agreement on the part of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to give or grant any Lender the right to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder at any time.

2.19. Swing Line.

(a) The Swing Line Lender agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make advances (“Swing Line Advances”) to the Borrower from time to time during the period from the date of this Agreement, up to but not including the fifth (5th) day prior to the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the lesser of (i) the Swing Line Commitment or (ii) the Aggregate Available Revolving Credit. For the avoidance of doubt, Swing Line Advances will reduce availability under the Revolving Credit Facility. Until RBS and/or any of its Affiliates cease to be the only Lender(s) under this Agreement, Swing Line Advances will be deemed usage for purposes of calculating the Undrawn Fee; thereafter Swing Line Advances shall not be deemed usage for purposes of calculating the Undrawn Fee.

(b) The Swing Line Advances may, at the request of the Swing Line Lender, be evidenced by the Swing Line Note. Each Swing Line Advance shall be in an amount not less than five hundred thousand Dollars ($500,000) and, if in excess thereof, in integral multiples of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000). Within the limits set forth in Section 2.19(a), the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section 2.19.

(c) The Borrower shall give the Swing Line Lender (and, if the Swing Line Lender is not also the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent) notice requesting a Swing Line Advance (“Swing Line Borrowing Notice”) not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day of such Swing Line Advance, specifying the amount of such requested Swing Line Advance. Each such Swing Line Borrowing Notice shall be accompanied by the Borrowing Notice provided for in Section 2.19(d). All Swing Line Borrowing Notices and Borrowing Notices given by the Borrower under this Section 2.19(c) shall be irrevocable. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 5.2, the Swing Line Lender will make the Swing Line Advance available to the Borrower in immediately available funds. If the Swing Line Lender is not also the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender shall not advance the Swing Line Advance unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have confirmed (by telephonic notice) that such applicable conditions have been satisfied. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.19 or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Swing Line Lender shall not be obligated to make any Swing Line Advance at a time when a Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

(d) Each Swing Line Advance shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate and shall be paid in full on or before the third Business Day following the making of such Swing Line Advance and, if not so paid by the Borrower, shall be paid in full from the proceeds of a Revolving Credit Ratable Advance made by the Revolving Credit Lenders pursuant to Section 2.2 on the third Business Day following the making of such Swing Line Advance. Each Swing Line Borrowing Notice given by the Borrower under Section 2.19(c) shall include, or if it does not include shall be deemed to include, an irrevocable Borrowing Notice under Section 2.2 requesting the Revolving Credit Lenders to make a Revolving Credit Advance, on or before the third Business Day following the making of such Swing Line Ratable Advance, of the full amount of such Swing Line Advance, unless such Swing Line Advance is sooner paid in full by the Borrower.

(e) Provided that the applicable conditions set forth in Section 5.2 shall have been satisfied at the time of the making of such Swing Line Advance, the Revolving Credit Lenders irrevocably agree to make the Revolving Credit Ratable Advance provided for in Section 2.19(d), notwithstanding any subsequent failure to satisfy such conditions or any other facts or circumstances including (without limitation) the existence of a Default. If and to the extent that any Revolving Credit Lender shall fail to make a Revolving Credit Ratable Loan in the amount of its Revolving Credit Ratable Share of such Revolving Credit Ratable Advance, such Revolving Credit Lender shall be irrevocably deemed to have purchased from the Swing Line Lender a participation interest in such Swing Line Advance in an amount equal to the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Ratable Share of such Revolving Credit Ratable Advance and shall promptly pay such amount to the Swing Line Lender.

2.20. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of a Lender.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.1 or 3.2, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts in respect of any Indemnified Taxes to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.7, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Installation for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.7, as the case may be, in the future, or would cause Section 3.5 to be inapplicable, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.1, Section 3.2 or Section 3.7 (only to the extent that such Lender’s request for compensation is in respect of Indemnified Taxes and is materially greater than requests made by other similarly situated Lenders under Section 3.7),or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts in respect of any Indemnified Taxes to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.7, or if a Lender gives notice of illegality pursuant to Section 3.5 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 2.20(a) or Section 3.5, as the case may be, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, a Non-Consenting Lender or a Revolving Credit Declining Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 13.2), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 3.7) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(i) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 13.3;

(ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and funded participations in Letters of Credit, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.6) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.1 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.7, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(iv) such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law; and

(v) in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent, and in the case of an assignment by a Revolving Credit Declining Lender, the applicable assignee shall agree at the time of such assignment to the extension to the Extension Date of the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, which agreement shall be set forth in a written instrument delivered and satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

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

2.21. Termination of Revolving Credit Commitment of Revolving Credit Declining Lender or Non-Consenting Lender. At any time prior to the replacement of a Revolving Credit Declining Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to Section 2.20, the Borrower may, upon not less than 15 days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent and such Revolving Credit Declining Lender or Non-Consenting Lender, as the case may be, terminate the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Revolving Credit

Declining Lender or Non-Consenting Lender, as the case may be, as of a Business Day (in the case of the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments of a Revolving Credit Declining Lender, prior to such Revolving Credit Declining Lender’s Termination Date) set forth in such notice; provided, however, that if such Revolving Credit Declining Lender or Non-Consenting Lender, as the case may be, is an Issuing Bank, the termination of its Revolving Credit Commitment shall be permitted only upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth in Section 4.10. In the event of such termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent on the date of termination of such Revolving Credit Commitment, for the account of such Revolving Credit Declining Lender or Non-Consenting Lender, as the case may be, all Loans and other sums payable to such Revolving Credit Declining Lender or Non-Consenting Lender, as the case may be, hereunder under the Revolving Credit Facility and all amounts (if any) payable to such Revolving Credit Declining Lender or Non-Consenting Lender, as the case may be, under Section 3.4 under the Revolving Credit Facility by reason of such payment. Such Revolving Credit Declining Lender or Non-Consenting Lender, as the case may be, shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.6, 3.7, 4.6, 4.9 and 10.6 to the extent such Revolving Credit Declining Lender’s or Non-Consenting Lender’s, as the case may be, entitlement to such benefit arose out of its position as a Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility prior to the termination of its Revolving Credit Commitment.

2.22. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents:

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:

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

(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 VIII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.1 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, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Letter of Credit Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 4.10; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Revolving Credit Ratable 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; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ future Letter of Credit Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 4.10; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or Swing Line Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Banks or Swing Line

Lenders against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Unmatured Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, 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 or outstanding Letters of Credit Obligations in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Line Advances are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Revolving Credit Commitments without giving effect to clause (iv) below. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.22(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. (A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Undrawn Fee or Letter of Credit Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

(B) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Revolving Credit Ratable Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 4.10.

(C) With respect to any Undrawn Fee or Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Obligations or Swing Line Advances that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Exposure or Swing Line Lender’s Swing Line Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Line Advances shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitments (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) no Default or Unmatured Default shall have occurred and be then continuing (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such condition is

satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swing Line Advances. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Advance in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lenders’ Swing Line Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Letter of Credit Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4.10.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Swing Line Lender and Issuing Bank 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 (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), 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 and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with their Revolving Credit Commitments (without giving effect to clause (a)(i) above), 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 the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) New Swing Line Advances/ Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Advance unless it is satisfied that it will have no Swing Line Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Line Advance and (ii) no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Letter of Credit Exposure after giving effect thereto.

ARTICLE III

INCREASED COSTS; TAXES

3.1. Increased Costs Generally. 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 (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or any Issuing Bank;

(ii) subject any Lender or Issuing Bank to any Taxes (other than (A) any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes indemnified under Section 3.7 and (B) Excluded Taxes); or

(iii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then, upon receipt by the Borrower of a certificate delivered by such Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 3.3, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered; provided, in each case, that such Lender or such Issuing Bank has requested such payments from similarly situated borrowers.

3.2. Capital Adequacy. If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or Issuing Bank or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lender or the Revolving Credit Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Advances held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then, upon receipt by the Borrower of a certificate delivered by such Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 3.3, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered; provided, in each case, that such Lender or such Issuing Bank has requested such payments from similarly situated borrowers.

3.3. Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 3.1 or 3.2 and delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

3.4. Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’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).

3.5. Availability of Certain Revolving Credit Advances; Illegality. (a) If the Required Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility determine that (A) deposits of a type and maturity appropriate to match fund Eurodollar Advances are not available or (B) the Eurodollar Rate does not accurately reflect the cost of making or maintaining Eurodollar Advances, then the Administrative Agent shall suspend the availability of Eurodollar Advances under the Revolving Credit Facility or (b) if, after the date of this Agreement, any Change in Law shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender (or its Lending Installation) to make, maintain or fund its Fixed Rate Advances hereunder such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, whereupon until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Lender to make such Fixed Rate Advances shall be suspended. Before giving any notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.5, such Lender shall designate a different Lending Installation if such different Lending Installation is available to the applicable Lender, such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and such designation will not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. If such Lender shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund any of its outstanding Fixed Rate Advances to maturity and shall so specify in such notice, each such Fixed Rate Advance will automatically, upon such demand, be converted into an ABR Advance.

3.6. Funding Indemnification. If (a) (i) any payment of a Fixed Rate Advance occurs on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, whether because of acceleration, prepayment or otherwise, (ii) a Fixed Rate Advance is not made, or (iii) any Revolving Credit Advance is not continued or converted into a Fixed Rate Advance, on the date specified by the Borrower, in each case, for any reason other than default by one or more of the Lenders or (b) the assignment of any Fixed Rate Loan occurs on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.20, then the Borrower will indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost (including any reasonable internal administrative costs) incurred by it resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, any loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain such Fixed Rate Advance. Determination of amounts payable under this Section 3.6 in connection with a Fixed Rate Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its Fixed Rate Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the interest rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not.

3.7. Taxes.

(a) For purposes of this Section 3.7, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank.

(b) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then the applicable withholding agent shall 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 or Other Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party 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 3.7) the Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(c) In addition, the Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse the Administrative Agent for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.7) payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender and any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the 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.

(e) [Reserved].

(f) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.7, the 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.

(g) (i) Each Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, each Lender shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Each Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders any such documentation (including any specific documentation required below in this Section 3.7(g)) obsolete, expired or inaccurate in any material respect, deliver promptly to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its inability to do so.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

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

(B) each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

i) two properly completed and duly executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor form) claiming eligibility for the applicable benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party;

ii) two properly completed and duly executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor form);

iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) two properly completed and duly executed certificates substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) two properly completed and duly executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor form); or

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

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

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.7(g), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any documentation that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender receives a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.7 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.7), it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, under this Section 3.7 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, shall repay the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender if the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will

the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Lender or such Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other Person.

(i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.7 shall survive the resignation or 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.

ARTICLE IV

THE LETTER OF CREDIT FACILITY

4.1. Letters of Credit. At the request of the Borrower, each Issuing Bank shall, within the limits of the L/C Limit and on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, issue from time to time for the account of the Borrower, through such offices or branches as it and the Borrower may jointly agree, one or more Letters of Credit in accordance with this Article IV, during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the Business Day prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date.

4.2. Limitations. No Issuing Bank shall issue, renew, amend or extend, at any time, any Letter of Credit:

(i) if, after giving effect to the Letter of Credit or amendment or extension thereof requested hereunder, (A) the aggregate maximum amount then available for drawing under Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank shall exceed any limit imposed by Applicable Law upon such Issuing Bank or any L/C Participant or (B) subject to clause (vii) below, the outstanding undrawn face amount of all Standard Letters of Credit shall exceed the L/C Limit;

(ii) if, after giving effect to the Letter of Credit or amendment or extension thereof requested hereunder, the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Credit Advances (including Revolving Credit Ratable Advances, Competitive Bid Advances and Swing Line Advances) plus (B) the Letter of Credit Obligations exceeds the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment;

(iii) if such Issuing Bank receives written notice from the Administrative Agent on the proposed Issuance Date of such Letter of Credit that the conditions precedent contained in Sections 5.1 or 5.2, as applicable, would not on such Issuance Date be satisfied unless such conditions are thereafter satisfied and written notice of such satisfaction is given to such Issuing Bank by the Administrative Agent;

(iv) that is in a currency other than United States dollars;

(v) if, subject to Section 4.4(e), the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve (12) months after the date of issuance or last renewal, unless the Required Lenders have approved such expiry date; provided that, subject to clauses (vi) and (vii) below, Alternative Letters of Credit with an aggregate face amount of up to 50% of the L/C Limit may have expiry dates up to 24 months after the date of issuance or last renewal;

(vi) if the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks approve and the Borrower shall have Cash Collateralized such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 4.10;

(vii) if, in the event that the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date has been extended pursuant to Section 2.17, the undrawn face amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at the time of such issuance, renewal, amendment or extension (other than Letters of Credit that have already been or will concurrently be Cash Collateralized in accordance with this clause (vii)) would, at any time prior to the expiry date of all such Letters of Credit, exceed the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment at any time prior to such expiry (after giving effect to the expiration of the Revolving Credit Commitments of Revolving Credit Declining Lenders), unless the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks approve and the Borrower shall have Cash Collateralized such amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 4.10 such that the excess condition referred to in this clause (vii) does not exist; or

(viii) if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender and after giving effect to the issuance of such Letters of Credit or amendment or extension thereof, the sum of Revolving Credit Exposures of the Non-Defaulting Lenders would exceed the sum of the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders, unless such excess amount is Cash Collateralized by the Borrower in accordance with Section 4.10.

4.3. Conditions. In addition to being subject to the satisfaction of the conditions contained in Sections 5.1 and 5.2, as applicable, the issuance of any Letter of Credit is subject to the satisfaction in full of the condition that the Borrower shall have delivered to such Issuing Bank at such times and in such manner as the Issuing Bank may reasonably prescribe such documents (including, if requested, an Application) and materials as may be reasonably required pursuant to the terms thereof, and the proposed Letter of Credit shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Bank in form and content.

4.4. Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit.

(a) The Borrower shall give such Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent not less than five (5) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as such Issuing Bank, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall agree) prior notice (in writing or by telephonic notice confirmed promptly in writing) of any requested issuance of a Letter of Credit under this Agreement. Such notice shall specify (i) the stated amount of the Letter of Credit requested, (ii) the requested Issuance Date, which shall be a Business Day, (iii) the date on which such requested Letter of Credit is to expire, which date shall be in compliance with the requirements of Section 4.2(vi), (iv) the purpose for which such Letter of Credit is to be issued and (v) the Person for whose benefit the requested Letter of Credit is to be issued. At the time such request is made, the Borrower shall also provide such Issuing Bank with a copy of the form of the Letter of Credit it is requesting be issued and the proposed form shall be reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Bank.

(b) [Reserved]

(c) An Issuing Bank shall not extend (other than by operation of an automatic renewal provision) or amend any Letter of Credit unless the requirements of this Section 4.4 are met as though a new Letter of Credit were being requested and issued.

(d) If Borrower so requests in any Application, then an Issuing Bank shall issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions (each, an “Evergreen Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Evergreen Letter of Credit must permit such Issuing Bank to prevent any such renewal at least once in each twelve (12) month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving

prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than 30 days (the “Nonrenewal Notice Date”) prior to the last day of such twelve (12) month period. The Issuing Bank shall use commercially reasonable efforts to advise the Borrower of any such notice of nonrenewal. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable Issuing Bank, Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such Issuing Bank for any such renewal. Once an Evergreen Letter of Credit has been issued, Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable Issuing Bank to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any time to a date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that such Issuing Bank shall not permit any such renewal if (i) such Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof (except that Section 4.3(i) shall not apply), or (ii) it has received notice (which must be in writing) on or before the Business Day immediately preceding the Nonrenewal Notice Date from Administrative Agent, any Lender, or Borrower that one (1) or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 5.2 is not then satisfied. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to permit the renewal of any Evergreen Letter of Credit at any time.

(e) Any Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, issue to the Borrower or any Subsidiary letters of credit (that are not Letters of Credit) for its own account, and at its own risk. None of the provisions of this Agreement shall apply to any letter of credit that is not a Letter of Credit.

4.5. Duties of Issuing Bank. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by an Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment, shall not put such Issuing Bank under any resulting liability to any Revolving Credit Lender or, provided that such Issuing Bank has complied with the procedures specified in Section 4.4 in all material respects, relieve any Revolving Credit Lender of its obligations hereunder to such Issuing Bank. In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, an Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to the Lenders other than to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered in compliance with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.

4.6. Participation.

(a) Immediately upon issuance by an Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 4.4, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from such Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, in the amount of its Revolving Credit Ratable Share of, such Letter of Credit (including, without limitation, all obligations of the Borrower with respect thereto other than amounts owing to such Issuing Bank under Section 3.2). Immediately upon the Revolving Credit Declining Lender’s Termination Date of a Revolving Credit Declining Lender or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment of a Revolving Credit Declining Lender pursuant to Section 2.21, each other Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from such Revolving Credit Declining Lender, without recourse or warranty, a portion of each such Revolving Credit Declining Lender’s undivided interest and participation in all outstanding Letters of Credit (in the proportion of the Revolving Credit Ratable Shares of such purchasing Lenders determined immediately following the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Revolving Credit Declining Lender) such that, upon such purchase, each Revolving Credit Lender holds an undivided interest and participation in all outstanding Letters of Credit in the amount of its then Revolving Credit Ratable Share thereof.

(b) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof and the date required for payment of

such drawing under such Letter of Credit. In the event that an Issuing Bank makes any payment under any Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall unconditionally reimburse such Issuing Bank not later than 2:00 p.m. (EST) on the next Business Day immediately following the day on which the Borrower receives notice of such payment from the Issuing Bank, whether payment is made through a Revolving Credit Advance hereunder or otherwise. If the Borrower shall not have repaid such amount to such Issuing Bank on or before the date of such payment by such Issuing Bank, such Issuing Bank shall promptly so notify the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly so notify each Revolving Credit Lender. Upon receipt of such notice, each Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees that it shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent (in same day funds) for the account of such Issuing Bank the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Ratable Share of the payments so made by such Issuing Bank, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay such amount, and any other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for such Issuing Bank’s account pursuant to this Section 4.6(b), to such Issuing Bank. If the Administrative Agent so notifies such Revolving Credit Lender prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on any Business Day, such Revolving Credit Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Ratable Share of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same day funds. If and to the extent such Revolving Credit Lender shall not have so made its Revolving Credit Ratable Share of the amount of such payment available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank, such Revolving Credit Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such payment was first due until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. The failure of any Revolving Credit Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Ratable Share of any such payment shall not relieve any other Revolving Credit Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank its Revolving Credit Ratable Share of any payment on the date such payment is to be made.

(c) The payments made by the Revolving Credit Lenders to an Issuing Bank in reimbursement of amounts paid by it under a Letter of Credit shall constitute, and the Borrower hereby expressly acknowledges and agrees that such payments shall constitute, Revolving Credit Advances hereunder and such payments shall for all purposes be treated as Revolving Credit Advances (notwithstanding that the amounts thereof may not comply with the provisions of Section 2.5). Such Revolving Credit Advances shall be ABR Advances, subject to the Borrower’s rights under Article II hereof.

(d) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Revolving Credit Lender, an Issuing Bank shall furnish to the requesting Administrative Agent or Revolving Credit Lender copies of any Letter of Credit or Application to which such Issuing Bank is party.

(e) The obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank with respect to a Letter of Credit and the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit hereunder shall be irrevocable, not subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with, but not subject to, the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;

(ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), such Issuing Bank, the

Administrative Agent, any Revolving Credit Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transactions between the Borrower or any other Loan Party and the beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit);

(iii) any draft, certificate or any other document presented under the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents;

(v) any failure by the Administrative Agent or an Issuing Bank to make any reports required pursuant to Section 4.8; or

(vi) the occurrence of any Default or Unmatured Default.

(f) The Borrower’s reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit hereunder and the obligations of Revolving Credit Lenders to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank under this Section 4.6 shall, in each case, continue until all Letters of Credit of such Issuing Bank have expired, regardless of whether (i) such Letter of Credit has been Cash Collateralized in accordance with Section 4.10, (ii) the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date has occurred or (iii) the Issuing Bank of such Letter of Credit is a Revolving Credit Declining Lender or has been replaced pursuant to Section 2.20.

4.7. Compensation for Letters of Credit.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (except to the extent that the Borrower shall be required to pay directly to the Revolving Credit Lenders as provided in Section 4.7(d)), in the case of each outstanding Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Fee therefor, payable quarterly in arrears as hereinafter provided on the daily average face amount (net of permanent reductions) of each Letter of Credit outstanding at any time during the preceding calendar quarter. The Letter of Credit Fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears (i) with respect to any calendar quarter, not later than five days following Administrative Agent’s delivery to the Borrower of the invoice for such calendar quarter (or portion thereof in the case of the quarter ending September 30, 2012), (ii) on the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date and (iii) if any Letter of Credit remains outstanding after the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date, with respect to any calendar quarter thereafter through the last calendar quarter during which the last Letter of Credit ceases to be outstanding, not later than five days following Administrative Agent’s delivery to the Borrower of the invoice for such calendar quarter (each such date specified in clause (i), (ii) or (iii), a “Quarterly Payment Date”). The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit such Letter of Credit Fees, when received by it, to the Revolving Credit Lenders in their Revolving Credit Ratable Shares thereof.

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank (except to the extent that the Borrower shall be required to pay directly to the Issuing Bank as provided in Section 4.7(d)) a fronting fee for each Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the greater of (a) $200 per annum, and (b) an amount equal to 0.125% per annum times the daily undrawn amount of such Letter of Credit payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date (including, if any Letter of Credit remains outstanding after the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date, each Quarterly Payment Date thereafter until the first Quarterly Payment Date after the date on which the last outstanding Letter of Credit ceases to be outstanding); provided that no such fee shall accrue prior to the first date on

which a New Revolving Credit Lender (other than an Affiliate of RBS) becomes a party hereto pursuant to Section 2.18. The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit such fronting fee, when received by it, to such Issuing Bank.

(c) Borrower shall pay to the applicable Issuing Bank, promptly upon demand, the amount of any fees (in addition to the fees described in Section 4.7(a) and 4.7(b)) which such Issuing Bank customarily charges to a Person similarly situated in the ordinary course of its business for issuing, amending or extending Letters of Credit, for honoring drafts, and taking similar action in connection with Letters of Credit, together with all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of such Issuing Bank incurred in connection therewith.

(d) After the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date and the payment in full of all other Obligations, the Borrower shall make on each Quarterly Payment Date (i) payments of Letter of Credit Fees under Section 4.7(a) directly to the Lenders in the amounts of their respective Revolving Credit Ratable Shares thereof and (ii) payments of fronting fees under Section 4.7(b) directly to each Issuing Bank that issued a Letter of Credit that was outstanding at any time during the prior calendar quarter.

(e) Letter of Credit Fees and fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 4.7(b) shall be calculated, on a pro rata basis for the period to which such payment applies, for actual days elapsed during such period, on the basis of a 360-day year.

4.8. Issuing Bank Reporting Requirements. Each Issuing Bank shall, no later than the third (3rd) Business Day following the last day of each month, provide to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower a schedule of the Letters of Credit issued by it, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, showing the Issuance Date, account party, original face amount, amount (if any) paid thereunder, expiration date, the reference number of each Letter of Credit outstanding at any time during such month, the aggregate amount (if any) payable by the Borrower to such Issuing Bank during the month pursuant to Section 3.2 and which Letters of Credit are Standard Letters of Credit or Alternative Letters of Credit.

4.9. Indemnification; Nature of Issuing Bank’s Duties.

(a) In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this Article IV, the Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save the Administrative Agent and each Revolving Credit Lender and Issuing Bank harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from the claims of third parties against the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Revolving Credit Lender as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit other than, in the case of an Issuing Bank, as a result of its willful misconduct or gross negligence as proven in a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) the failure of an Issuing Bank to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by it as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority.

(b) As among the Borrower, the Revolving Credit Lenders, the Administrative Agent and any Issuing Bank, the Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Revolving Credit Lender nor (subject to the provisions of Section 4.9(d)) an Issuing Bank shall be responsible: (i) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of the Letters of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument

transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) for failure of the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) for errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) for the misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; and (viii) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank and the Revolving Credit Lenders including, without limitation, any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any rights or powers of an Issuing Bank under this Section 4.9.

(c) In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by an Issuing Bank under or in connection with the Letters of Credit or any related certificates, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put such Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Revolving Credit Lender under any resulting liability to the Borrower or relieve the Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder to any such Person.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 4.9, the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify an Issuing Bank under this Section 4.9 in respect of any liability incurred by such Issuing Bank arising primarily out of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Issuing Bank, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment, or out of the wrongful dishonor by such Issuing Bank of a proper demand for payment made under the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, unless such dishonor was made at the request of the Borrower.

4.10. Cash Collateralization.

(a) In the circumstances described in Section 4.2(vi) or (vii), the Borrower shall, or shall cause one or more of the other Loan Parties, (x) in the case of the circumstances described in Section 4.2(vi), Cash Collateralize such Letter of Credit not less than seven (7) days prior to the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date and (y) in the case of the circumstances described in Section 4.2(vii), Cash Collateralize such Letters of Credit no later than seven (7) days prior to each Revolving Credit Declining Lender’s Termination Date.

(b) At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within two Business Days following the written request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s share of the Issuing Banks’ Letter of Credit Exposure with respect to Standard Letters of Credit (determined after giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender).

(i) The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Banks, and agrees to maintain, an exclusive perfected security interest, subject only to any inchoate tax liens referred to in clause (i) of the definition of Permitted Liens, in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations, to be applied pursuant to clause (ii) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim (other than inchoate tax liens

referred to in clause (i) of the definition of Permitted Liens) of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks as herein provided, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, but subject to clause (iii) below, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 4.10(b)(ii) or Section 2.22 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(iii) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 4.10(b) or Section 2.22 and to the extent provided by the Borrower, shall be returned to the Borrower following (i) the elimination or reduction of the applicable Letter of Credit Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender or the replacement of the Defaulting Lender as a Lender pursuant to Section 2.20(b) or the expiration or return to the applicable Issuing Bank of the applicable Letter of Credit), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.22, the Person providing Cash Collateral and each Issuing Bank may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Letter of Credit Exposure or other obligations and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrower, such Cash Collateral held by the Administrative Agent shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

In addition, the Borrower shall cash collateralize Standard Letters of Credit when required by and in accordance with Section 2.22.

4.11. No Obligation. No Lender shall have any obligation hereunder to accept or approve any request for, or to issue, amend or extend, any Letter of Credit hereunder except for the obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders under this Article IV.

4.12. Alternative Letters of Credit. So long as no Default or Unmatured Default shall have occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall have the right to Cash Collateralize any Letter of Credit Obligation with respect to any Letter of Credit in accordance with this Section 4.12. In order to designate a Letter of Credit as an Alternative Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent written notice of its election to so designate and deposit Cash Collateral in a deposit account with the Administrative Agent. So long as such Cash Collateral remains in place, such Letter of Credit shall be an “Alternative Letter of Credit” hereunder; provided that, at the Borrower’s election, upon at least five Business Days’ written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Cash Collateral for such Alternative Letter of Credit shall be released and, together with any interest accrued thereon, remitted back to the Borrower, at which time such Letter of Credit shall cease to be “Alternative Letter of Credit” hereunder; provided further that the redesignation of such Letter of Credit shall not increase the Issuing Banks’ L/C Limit. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower may cause a Letter of Credit that is fully Cash Collateralized pursuant to Section 4.10 to be designated an Alternative Letter of Credit in accordance with this Section 4.12.

4.13. Additional Provisions Regarding Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary contained herein, no Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank (x) shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular, (y) shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise entitled to be compensated hereunder) not in effect on the date of this Agreement, or (z) shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the date hereof and which such Issuing Bank in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ material to it; provided that, in the cases of clauses (y) and (z), such Issuing Bank shall have (1) provided written notice to the Borrower of its refusal to issue any Letter of Credit and the specific reasons therefor and the Borrower shall not have fully compensated such Issuing Bank for the imposition of such restriction, reserve or capital requirement or reimbursed such Issuing Bank for such loss, cost or expense, as applicable, and (2) sought compensation from similarly situated borrowers. An Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to the Letter of Credit.

The Successor Borrower may then exercise every power and right of the Borrower under this Agreement, and except in the case of a lease, the Borrower will be released from all of its liabilities and obligations in respect of this Agreement. If the Borrower leases all or substantially all of its assets, the Borrower will not be released from its Obligations. If the Borrower is not the Successor Borrower, such Successor Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (A) an assumption of the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents and (B) such certified resolutions, opinions of counsel and other supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, all of which shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(b) No Guarantor will consolidate or merge with or into, or sell, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets (including by way of liquidation or dissolution), to any Person (in each case other than in a transaction in which the Borrower or a Guarantor is the survivor of a consolidation or merger, or the transferee in a sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition) unless:

(i) the Person formed by or surviving such consolidation or merger (if other than the Borrower or a Guarantor, as the case may be), or to which such sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition will be made (collectively, the “Successor Guarantor”), is a corporation or other legal entity organized and existing under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and the Successor Guarantor assumes all of the obligations of the Guarantor under this Agreement and the Guarantee, and

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Unmatured Default has occurred and is continuing.

The foregoing provision shall not apply to the consolidation or merger of a Guarantor, or the sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of a Guarantor, which under the provisions of Section 7.17 or the other provisions of this Credit Agreement, results in such Guarantor being released from its Guarantee or the Successor Guarantor not being required to become a Guarantor, as the case may be.

Upon any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the Successor Guarantor will be substituted for the relevant Guarantor under this Agreement and the Guarantee. The Successor Guarantor may then exercise every power and right of the relevant Guarantor under this Agreement, and except in the case of a lease, the relevant Guarantor will be released from all of its liabilities and obligations in respect of this Agreement and the Guarantee. If a Guarantor leases all or substantially all of its assets, such Guarantor will not be released from its Obligations. If a Guarantor is not the Successor Guarantor, such Successor Guarantor shall promptly execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (A) an assumption of the Guarantor’s obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is party and (B) such certified resolutions, opinions of counsel and other supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, all of which shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

7.11. Distributions, Repurchases of Stock, Etc. Borrower (a) shall not, and shall not permit any Loan Party to, declare or make, directly or indirectly, any Distribution, and (b) shall not repurchase, redeem, retire, cancel, terminate or otherwise acquire any of its capital stock or other equity interest in the Borrower (including, without limitation, any instrument convertible into its capital stock or other equity interest) or any option, warrant or other right to acquire any such capital stock or such other equity interest, in the case of clause (a) or (b) at any time unless (i) no Default or Unmatured Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall result therefrom and (ii) the Borrower shall be in compliance with the covenants under Section 7.27 on a pro forma basis after giving effect thereto.

7.12. Disposition of Assets. None of the Loan Parties will sell, convey, assign, lease, abandon or otherwise transfer or dispose of, voluntarily or involuntarily, any of its Property (including, but not limited to, sale, assignment, discount or other disposition of accounts, contract rights, chattel paper, equipment or general intangibles with or without recourse or of capital stock, shares of beneficial interest or partnership interests of another Loan Party ) at any time unless (i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall result therefrom and (ii) the Borrower shall be in compliance with the covenants under Sections 7.14 and 7.27 on a pro forma basis after giving effect thereto, except:

(i) transactions involving the sale of inventory in the ordinary course of business;

(ii) any sale, transfer or lease of assets which are no longer necessary or required in the conduct of the business of the Loan Parties (taken as a whole);

(iii) any sale, transfer or lease of assets to any other Loan Party;

(iv) any sale, transfer or lease of assets which are replaced by substitute assets acquired or leased; and

(v) any sale, transfer or lease of assets of, or interests in, a Non-Loan Party or any other Affiliate of the Borrower that is not a Loan Party.

7.13. [Reserved]

7.14. Investments. Borrower shall not permit the aggregate amount of its Investments (as determined in accordance with GAAP) in Subsidiaries that are not Loan Parties to exceed 30% of Tangible Net Worth.

7.15. Liens. None of the Loan Parties will create, incur, or suffer to exist any Lien in, of or on any Property, except Permitted Liens.

7.16. Additional Guarantors. If any Subsidiary that is not already a Guarantor becomes an obligor under any Credit Facilities or Publicly Traded Debt Securities, the Borrower shall cause such Subsidiary to become a Guarantor substantially concurrently with it becoming an obligor in respect of such Credit Facilities or Publicly Traded Debt Securities in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.16. In addition, the Borrower may designate any Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor as a Guarantor at any time in the manner provided below. Such designation of a Subsidiary of the Borrower as a Guarantor shall be effected by the delivery by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent of each of the following:

(i) Notice by the Borrower identifying such Guarantor, the state of its incorporation, and the ownership of the capital stock or other ownership interests in such Guarantor;

(ii) A Supplemental Guaranty duly executed and delivered by such Guarantor; and

(iii) Documents with respect to such Guarantor addressing the requirements set forth in clauses (iv), (v) and (vi) of Section 5.1.

Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of the foregoing, all of which shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in form and substance, such Subsidiary of the Borrower shall be a Guarantor and a Loan Party hereunder.

7.17. Release of a Guarantor.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of (i) the sale or other disposition of capital stock of any Guarantor if as a result of such disposition, such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower, (ii) a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of any Guarantor (other than to the Borrower or another Guarantor) or (iii) a merger or consolidation of a Guarantor with a Person other than the Borrower or another Guarantor, then such Guarantor (in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above) will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged from all obligations under any of the Loan Documents, the other provisions of any of the Loan Documents and the Person acquiring such assets (in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above) shall not be required to assume such Guarantor’s obligations under the Loan Documents, the other provisions of any of the Loan Documents or otherwise become a Guarantor, in each case without any further action required on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Borrower or any Guarantor; provided that such sale, disposition or other transaction is otherwise in compliance with this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Borrower or another Guarantor that is permitted under this Agreement, or shall prevent any sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially assets of a Guarantor to the Borrower or another Guarantor to the extent permitted under this Agreement. Upon any such consolidation, merger, or disposition, the Guarantee given by such Guarantor shall no longer have any force or effect.

(b) In addition, the Borrower may designate any Guarantor as a Non-Loan Party; provided that (i) the Borrower shall be in compliance with the covenants under Sections 7.14 and 7.27 after giving effect to such designation; (ii) no such Subsidiary shall be an obligor under any Publicly Traded Debt Securities or Credit Facilities; (iii) no Unmatured Default under Section 8.2 or 8.6 and no Default shall exist after giving effect to such designation; and (iv) the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate, signed by the chief financial officer, controller or chief accounting officer of the Borrower, stating its election to make such designation and certifying that the requirements of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) are satisfied. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized by the Lenders to execute such documents reasonably satisfactory to it to evidence the release of such Subsidiary from the Guaranty Agreement as the Borrower requests.

7.18. Inspection and Appraisal. At all reasonable times while the Borrowing Base Requirement is in effect, upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent and subject to Section 10.11, the Borrower shall, and shall cause each other Loan Party to, upon reasonable notice, allow Administrative Agent and Lenders and their authorized agents to inspect any of their properties, to review and make excerpts of reports, files, and other records maintained in the ordinary course of business, and to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Loan Parties with their respective officers from time to time, during reasonable business hours. Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower shall permit the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their authorized agents to enter upon the Inventory during normal working hours and as often as they desire, for the purpose of inspecting or appraising the Loan Inventory or the construction of the Dwelling Units.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.6 below, (i) as long as no Default exists, the Borrower shall not be required to reimburse the Administrative Agent for the expenses of any such inspections and appraisal and (ii) the Borrower shall not be required to reimburse any Lender that is not the Administrative Agent for the expenses of any such inspections or appraisals.

7.19. [Reserved].

7.20. Other Debt Agreements. If any Loan Party shall obtain any senior unsecured revolving credit facility with a scheduled commitment termination date of three years or later after the effective date of such facility (each, an “Other Financing”), (i) if the documentation governing such Other Financing includes a financial covenant that is not included in this Agreement, this Agreement shall be automatically amended to include such additional financial covenant, (ii) if the documentation governing such Other Financing has a maximum Leverage Ratio of less than 1.35:1.00, a minimum Tangible Net Worth requirement greater than the then applicable requirement under Section 7.27.3 and/or a trigger for borrowing base requirement additional to or less than the Leverage Ratio being greater than 1.10:1.00, then the applicable provision of this Agreement shall be automatically amended to conform to such additional or more restrictive requirement, (iii) if the yield on the Other Financing is higher than the yield on the Revolving Credit Facility, the Applicable Margins and the Undrawn Fees shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Applicable Margins and Undrawn Fees shall be equal to the corresponding applicable interest rates and undrawn fees in such Other Financing; provided that in determining yield under this Agreement and such Other Financing, original issue discount (“OID”) or upfront fees payable by the Borrower or any Subsidiary to the lenders shall be included (with OID and upfront fees being equated to interest based on assumed four-year life to maturity); provided that this Section 7.20 shall cease to apply on the first date after the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment is increased to at least $200,000,000 pursuant to Section 2.18 and there are at least three Lenders (counting any Person and its Affiliates as one Lender). The Borrower shall give notice to the Administrative Agent if this Section 7.20 becomes applicable, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized by the Lenders and the Borrower to execute and deliver to the parties hereto an amendment to this Agreement that reflects the amendments required by this Section 7.20.

7.21. [Reserved]

ARTICLE IX

ACCELERATION, WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES

9.1. Acceleration. If any Default described in Section 8.5 or 8.6 occurs and is continuing with respect to the Borrower, the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligations of the Lenders to issue, amend or extend any Letter of Credit hereunder shall automatically terminate and the Obligations shall immediately become due and payable without any election or action on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. If any other Default occurs and is continuing, the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the written consent of the Required Lenders) may terminate or suspend the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation of any Lender to issue, amend or extend any Letter of Credit hereunder, or declare the Obligations to be due and payable, or both, whereupon the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which the Borrower hereby expressly waives. If, within 30 days after acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations or termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans and of the Issuing Bank(s) to issue, amend or extend Letters of Credit hereunder as a result of any Default (other than any Default as described in Section 8.5 or 8.6 with respect to the Borrower) and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the Obligations due shall have been obtained or entered, the Required Lenders (in their sole discretion) shall so direct, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower, rescind and annul such acceleration and/or termination.

9.2. Amendments. Subject to the provisions of this Article IX, the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent in writing of the Required Lenders) and the Borrower may enter into agreements for the purpose of adding or modifying any provisions to the Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or the Borrower hereunder or waiving any Default hereunder; provided, however, that no such agreement or any waiver shall, without the consent of all of the Lenders adversely affected thereby (or all of the Lenders, in the case of clauses (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi)):

(i) Extend the final maturity of any Loan under the Revolving Credit Facility (except as provided in Section 2.17) or forgive all or any portion of the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate (whether by modification of the Pricing Schedule or otherwise) or extend the time for payment of or forgive interest or fees thereon; or

(ii) Extend the Revolving Credit Facility Termination Date under the Revolving Credit Facility (except as provided in Section 2.17), or increase the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility (except as agreed to by such Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.18); or

(iii) Permit the Borrower to assign its rights under this Agreement; or

(iv) Change, directly or indirectly, the percentage specified in the definition of “Required Lenders,” or change any provision that calls for consent, approval or other action by the Required Lenders, all Lenders or any particular affected Lender; or

(v) Amend this Section 9.2 or Section 12.1; or

(vi) Release any Guarantor, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement or the Guaranty Agreement.

No amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to the Administrative Agent or the Swing Line Lender shall be effective without its written consent, and no amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to any outstanding Letter of Credit issued by any Issuing Bank shall be effective without its written consent. The Administrative Agent may waive payment of the fee required under Section 13.2(b)(vii) without obtaining the consent of any other party to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to amendments under Section 9.2(i) or (ii) requiring the approval of all of the Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility, if all Lenders other than one or more Defaulting Lenders approve such amendment, the failure of such Defaulting Lenders to approve such amendment shall not prevent such amendment from becoming effective with respect to such Lenders approving such amendment (it being understood that such amendment will not be effective with respect to such Defaulting Lenders that do not approve such amendment). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendments to this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.20 shall be effective upon execution and delivery thereof by the Administrative Agent to the other parties hereto.

9.3. Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and the making of a Loan or the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit notwithstanding the existence of a Default or the inability of the Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to such Loan or the issuance, amendment or extension of such Letter of Credit shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence. Any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Lenders required pursuant to Section 9.2, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All remedies contained in the Loan Documents or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders until the Obligations have been paid in full.

The failure of any Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall not be construed so as to confer any right or benefit upon any Person other than the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that the parties hereto expressly agree that the Arranger (and, in the case of the provisions of Section 10.6(b), any other Person indemnified by the Borrower thereunder) shall enjoy the benefits of the provisions of Sections 10.6 and 10.10 to the extent specifically set forth therein and shall have the right to enforce such provisions on its, his or her own behalf and in its, his or her own name to the same extent as if it, he or she were a party to this Agreement.

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and each Issuing Bank, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of one firm of counsel for all Indemnitees), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including the Borrower or any other Loan Party) other than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence, Release or threatened Release of Regulated Substances on or from any Property currently for formerly owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any other Environmental Liability related in any way to any property or the operations of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv)any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower or such Loan Party has obtained a final and non-appealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 10.6 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c) To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to pay any amount required under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any Issuing Bank, any Swing Line Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such Issuing Bank, such Swing Line Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Revolving Credit Ratable Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender); provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such Issuing Bank or such Swing Line Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such Issuing Bank or any such Swing Line Lender in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this paragraph (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 10.5.

(d) To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit, or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in paragraph (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 10 days after demand therefor.

(f) Each party’s obligations under this Section 10.6 shall survive the termination of the Loan Documents and payment of the obligations hereunder.

10.7. Numbers of Documents. All statements, notices, closing documents, and requests hereunder shall (if the Administrative Agent so requests) be furnished to the Administrative Agent with sufficient counterparts so that the Administrative Agent may furnish one to each of the Lenders.

10.8. [Reserved].

10.9. Severability of Provisions. Any provision in any Loan Document that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of all Loan Documents are declared to be severable.

10.10. Nonliability of Lenders.

(a) The relationship between the Borrower on the one hand and the Lenders and the Administrative Agent on the other hand shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Borrower or any other Loan Party. Neither the Administrative Agent, any Arranger nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower or any other Loan Party to review or inform the Borrower or any other Loan Party of any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrower’s or any other Loan Party’s business or operations. The Borrower agrees that neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger nor any Lender shall have liability to the Borrower or any other Loan Party (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by the Borrower, the Borrower or any other Loan Party in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such losses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger nor any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and the Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby waives, releases and agrees not to ▇▇▇ for, any special, indirect or consequential damages suffered by the Borrower or any other Loan Party in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

(b) Construction and/or Development.

In addition, Lenders shall not be liable to Borrower or any third party for the failure of Lenders or their authorized agents to discover or to reject materials or workmanship during the course of Lenders’ inspections of the Inventory.

(c) Dwelling Lots. None of Lenders, Administrative Agent, or Issuing Banks shall be liable to any party for (i) the construction or completion of the Dwelling Units, (ii) the failure to construct, complete, or protect the Dwelling Units, (iii) the payment of any expense incurred in connection with the construction of the Dwelling Units, (iv) the performance or nonperformance of any other obligation of any Loan Party, or (v) Lenders’ or Administrative Agent’s exercise of any remedy available to them. In addition, Lenders shall not be liable to Borrower or any third party for the failure of Lenders or their authorized agents to discover or to reject materials or workmanship during the course of Lenders’ inspections of the Dwelling Lots.

(d) Other Lenders. The obligations of each Lender under this Agreement are separate and independent such that no action, inaction, or responsibility of one Lender shall be imputed to the remaining Lenders. Borrower hereby waives any claim or demand against each Lender as to the action, inaction, or responsibility of another.

10.11. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (in which case such Person shall promptly notify the Borrower, in advance, to the extent lawfully permitted to do so); (c) to the extent required by Applicable Law or by any subpoena or similar legal process (in which case such Person shall promptly notify the Borrower, in advance, to the extent lawfully permitted to do so); (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.11 (or as may otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower), to (i) any Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee or pledgee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder; (f) with the written consent of the Borrower; (g) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.11; (h) to any state, Federal or foreign authority or examiner (including the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization) (in which case such Person shall, except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority, promptly notify the Borrower, in advance, to the extent lawfully permitted to do so); (i) to any rating agency or the CUSIP Bureau when required by it (it being understood that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any Information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from such Lender); or (j) to the extent reasonably necessary in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder to the extent reasonably necessary in connection with such enforcement. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitments and the Revolving Credit Advances. For the purposes of this Section 10.11, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or its or their business, other than any such information that is publicly available to any Administrative Agent or any Lender prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.11, unless, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as not confidential.

10.12. Nonreliance. Each Lender hereby represents that it is not relying on or looking to any margin stock (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) for the repayment of the Loans provided for herein.

10.13. USA PATRIOT ACT. Each Lender that is subject to the PATRIOT Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act.

ARTICLE XI

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

11.1. Appointment and Authority.

(a) Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints RBS to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

(b) Each Issuing Bank shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and each Issuing Bank shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Administrative Agent in this Article XI with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by each Issuing Bank in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in this Article XI and in the definition of “Related Parties” included each Issuing Bank with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to each Issuing Bank.

11.2. 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, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

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

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

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

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

The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 9.1 and 9.2) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Bank.

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

11.4. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a

Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or an Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or an Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

11.5. 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 (other than Disqualified Institutions). The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub agents.

11.6. Resignation of Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (provided no consent of the Borrower shall be required if a Default or Unmatured Default under Section 8.2, 8.5 or 8.6 exists), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint a successor (provided no consent of the Borrower shall be required if a Default or Unmatured Default under Section 8.2, 8.5 or 8.6 exists). If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks under any of the Loan

Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) except for any indemnity payments 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 and Issuing Bank directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.6 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

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

11.8. No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Arranger shall not have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank hereunder.

11.9. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or Letter of Credit Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) 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, Letter of Credit Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.4, 4.7 and 10.6) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and Issuing Bank 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 the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.4 and 10.6.

11.10. Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any Applicable Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 3.7, each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the IRS or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold Tax from amount paid to or for the account of such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective), whether or not such Tax was 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 under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 11.10. The agreements in this Section 11.10 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, a “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 11.10, include any Issuing Bank.

11.11. Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have actual knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Unmatured Default hereunder (other than a Default under Section 8.2) unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement describing such Default or Unmatured Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default” or that such notice is delivered pursuant to Section 7.3 hereof. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

11.12. Administrative Agent’s Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the fees agreed to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Fee Letter or as otherwise agreed by them from time to time.

11.13. Delegation to Affiliates. The Borrower and the Lenders agree that the Administrative Agent may delegate any of its duties under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates. Any such Affiliate (and such Affiliate’s directors, officers, agents and employees) which performs duties in connection with this Agreement shall be entitled to the same benefits of the indemnification, waiver and other protective provisions to which the Administrative Agent is entitled under Articles X and XI.

11.14. Arranger’s Responsibilities and Duties. The Arranger shall have not any responsibilities hereunder in any capacity or be deemed to have any agency or fiduciary relationship with the Borrower or any Lender.

ARTICLE XII

SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS

12.1. Setoff. If a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Bank, and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, Issuing Bank or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a Lending Installation or Affiliate of such Lender or such Issuing Bank different from the Lending Installation or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.22 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, the Issuing Banks, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement de-scribing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees to notify the 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.

12.2. Ratable Payments. If any Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in such Loans, 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 are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the 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 or participations in outstanding Letters of Credit to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).

The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

ARTICLE XIII

BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS

13.1. Participations.

13.1.1. Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 10.6(b) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).

13.1.2. Voting Rights; Participant Register. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the proviso to Section 9.2 that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.6 and 3.7 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.7(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.7(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 13.2(b); provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.20 as if it were an assignee under Section 13.2(b); and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.1 or 3.7, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent the participation was sold with the Borrower’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.20(b) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.1 as though it were a Lender; provided that (A) such Participation was sold with the Borrower’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (B) such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 12.2 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, 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 in connection with a Tax audit or other proceeding 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 such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

13.2. Assignments.

(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 that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.1, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or its foreign equivalent; provided that no such pledge or assignment under this clause (iii) shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto (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 Section 13.1 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and/or the Loans at the time owing to it or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment (which for this purpose includes, without duplication, the Revolving Credit Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Revolving Credit Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such

assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Unmatured Default under Section 8.2, 8.5 or 8.6 has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

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

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

(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, it being understood that withholding consent for an assignment to any Person that is not an Approved Bank shall not be deemed unreasonable) shall be required unless (x) a Default under Section 8.2 or a Default or Unmatured Default under Section 8.5 or 8.6 has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received notice thereof;

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

(C) the consent of each Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility.

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided 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 to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) to 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).

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

(vii) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the

assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower 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 (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, each Swing Line Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances in accordance with its Revolving Credit Ratable Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Article III and Section 10.6 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 Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 13.1.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Credit 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 Borrower, 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. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender (solely to the extent of the provisions related to such Lender), as to its commitment only, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Swing Line Commitment. The Swing Line Commitment may be assigned only to an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or to a successor Administrative Agent.

(e) Resignation as Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time RBS or any other Issuing Bank assigns all of its Revolving Credit Commitment and Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 13.2, such Person may, (i) upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as Issuing Bank and/or (ii) upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower, resign as Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation as Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of RBS or such other Issuing Bank as Issuing Bank

or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. If RBS or another Issuing Bank resigns as Issuing Bank, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Bank and all Letter of Credit Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Alternate Base Rate Loans or fund participations in unreimbursed amounts pursuant to Section 4.6(b)). If RBS resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Advance made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Alternate Base Rate Loans or fund participations in outstanding Swing Line Advance pursuant to Section 2.19(d). Upon the appointment of a successor Issuing Bank and/or Swing Line Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (b) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to or such other resigning Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of RBS or such Person with respect to such Letters of Credit.

13.3. Dissemination of Information. The Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or assignee or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender’s possession concerning the creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries; provided that each Transferee and prospective Transferee agrees in writing to be bound by Section 10.11 of this Agreement.

ARTICLE XIV

(b) So long as RBS or any of its Affiliates is the Administrative Agent, such materials as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree in their sole discretion shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent in an electronic/soft medium in a format acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by e-mail at ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇@▇▇▇.▇▇▇. The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may make such materials, as well as any other written information, documents, instruments and other material relating to the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any other materials or matters relating to this Agreement, the Notes or any of the transactions contemplated hereby (other than any Notice of Borrowing, Competitive Bid Notice, Letter of Credit Notice, Borrowing Notice, Rate Option Notice, Swing Line Borrowing Notice, request for Conversion or continuation of any Revolving Credit Advance, Revolving Credit Ratable Advances or notices constituting service of process or relating to legal process) (collectively, the “Communications”) available to the Lenders by posting such notices on Debtdomain, IntraLinks, SyndTrak or a substantially similar electronic system (the “Platform”). The Borrower acknowledges that (i) the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution, (ii) the Platform is provided “as is” and “as available” and (iii) no Agent Party (as defined below) warrants the accuracy, adequacy or completeness of the Communications or the Platform and each expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in the Communications or the Platform.

In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors or representatives (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, indirect or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Communications through the internet, except to the extent the liability of any Agent Party is found in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Agent Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(c) The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) (a “Notice”) specifying that any Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of such information, documents or other materials to such Lender for purposes of this Agreement; provided that, if requested by any Lender, the Administrative Agent shall deliver a copy of the Communications to such Lender by e-mail or facsimile. Each Lender agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing of such Lender’s e-mail address(es) to which a Notice may be sent by electronic transmission (including by electronic communication) on or before the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record an effective e-mail address for such Lender) and (ii) that any Notice may be sent to such e-mail address(es) as such Lender shall instruct. The Administrative Agent agrees that it will, upon any Lender’s reasonable request, furnish materials posted on the Platform to such Lender in hard copy to such Lender’s address set forth on the signature pages hereof.

(d) 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.

This GUARANTY (“Guaranty”) is made as of September 7, 2012 by the undersigned (the “Guarantors”), in favor of the “Lenders” under that certain Credit Agreement dated as of September 7, 2012, among ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Lenders from time to time parties thereto and The Royal Bank of Scotland plc, in its capacity as Administrative Agent. Such Credit Agreement, as it may be amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, is hereinafter referred to as the “Credit Agreement.” Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement.

1. Guaranty. (i) For value received and in consideration of any loan, advance or financial accommodation of any kind whatsoever heretofore, now or hereafter made, given or granted to the Borrower by the Lenders, the Guarantors unconditionally, jointly and severally guarantee for the benefit of each of the Lenders the full and prompt payment when due, whether at maturity or earlier, by reason of acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, interest accruing following the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against any Loan Party, at the applicable rate specified in the Credit Agreement, whether or not such interest is allowed as a claim in bankruptcy).

(ii) At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, the Guarantors shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, on written demand and in immediately available funds, the full amount of the Obligations then due. The Guarantors hereby agree that this Guaranty is an absolute guaranty of payment and is not a guaranty of collection.

2. Obligations Unconditional. Subject to Sections 11 and 12 hereof the Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations under this Guaranty shall be unconditional, irrespective of: (i) the validity, enforceability, avoidance, novation or subordination of any of the Obligations or any of the Loan Documents; (ii) the absence of any attempt by, or on behalf of, any Lender or the Administrative Agent to collect, or to take any other action to enforce, all or any part of the Obligations whether from or against the Borrower, any other guarantor of the Obligations or any other person; (iii) the election of any remedy by, or on behalf of, any Lender or the Administrative Agent with respect to all or any part of the Obligations; (iv) the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence by, or on behalf of, any Lender or the Administrative Agent with respect to any provision of any of the Loan Documents; (v) the election by, or on behalf of, any one or more of the Lenders, in any proceeding instituted under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (11 U.S.C. 101 et seq.) (the “Bankruptcy Code”), of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; (vi) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by the Borrower, as debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code; (vii) the disallowance, under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of the claims of any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent for repayment of all or any part of the Obligations or any Expenses; or (viii) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of the Borrower or any one or more of the Guarantors.

3. Enforcement; Application of Payments. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, the Administrative Agent may proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any one or more of the Guarantors to obtain performance of and to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion, of the Obligations then due, without first proceeding against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations. Subject only to the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive

H-1

right to determine the application of payments and credits, if any, from the Guarantors, the Borrower or from any other Person on account of the Obligations or any other liability of the Guarantors to any Lender.

4. Waivers.

(a) The Guarantors hereby waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of receivership or bankruptcy of the Borrower, protest or notice with respect to the Obligations, all setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of acceptance of this Guaranty, and all other demands whatsoever (and shall not require that the same be made on the Borrower as a condition precedent to the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder), and covenants that this Guaranty will not be discharged, except by complete payment (in cash) and performance of the Obligations and any other obligations contained herein. The Guarantors further waive all notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional indebtedness, arising either from additional loans extended to the Borrower or otherwise, and also waive all notices that the principal amount, or any portion thereof, and/or any interest on any instrument or document evidencing all or any part of the Obligations is due, notices of any and all proceedings to collect from the maker, any endorser or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, or from any other Person, and, to the extent permitted by law, notices of exchange, sale, surrender or other handling of any security or collateral given to the Agent to secure payment of all or any part of the Obligations.

(b) The Guarantors understand that they shall be liable for the full amount of their liability under this Guaranty, notwithstanding the occurrence of any event impairing the rights of the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders to proceed against the Borrower, any other guarantor (including without limitation any Guarantor hereunder) or the Borrower’s or such guarantor’s property. The Guarantors agree that all of their obligations under this Guaranty (including their obligation to pay in full all indebtedness evidenced by or arising under the Credit Agreement) shall remain in full force and effect without defense, offset or counterclaim of any kind, notwithstanding that the Guarantors’ rights against the Borrower may be impaired, destroyed or otherwise affected by reason of any action or inaction on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

(c) The Lenders, either themselves or acting through the Administrative Agent, are hereby authorized, without notice or demand and without affecting the liability of the Guarantors hereunder, from time to time, (i) to renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or other terms relating to, all or any part of the Obligations, or to otherwise modify, amend or change the terms of any of the Loan Documents; (ii) to accept partial payments on all or any part of the Obligations; (iii) to take and hold security or collateral for the payment of all or any part of the Obligations, this Guaranty, or any other guaranties of all or any part of the Obligations or other liabilities of the Borrower, (iv) to exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security or collateral; (v) to apply such security or collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as in their discretion they may determine; and (vi) to settle, release, exchange, enforce, waive, compromise or collect or otherwise liquidate all or any part of the Obligations, this Guaranty, any other guaranty of all or any part of the Obligations, and any security or collateral for the Obligations or for any such guaranty. Any of the foregoing may be done in any manner, without affecting or impairing the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder.

5. Setoff. At any time when all or any part of the Obligations have become due and payable (by acceleration or otherwise) following the occurrence of a Default, each Lender and the Administrative Agent may, without notice to the Guarantors and regardless of the acceptance of any security or collateral for the payment hereof, appropriate and apply toward the payment of all or any part of the

H-2

Obligations (i) any indebtedness due or to become due from such Lender or the Administrative Agent to any one or more of the Guarantors, and (ii) any moneys, credits or other property belonging to any one or more of the Guarantors, at any time held by or coming into the possession of such Lender or the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates.

6. Financial Information. The Guarantors hereby assume responsibility for keeping themselves informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and any and all endorsers and/or other guarantors of all or any part of the Obligations, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations, or any part thereof, that diligent inquiry would reveal, and the Guarantors hereby agree that none of the Lenders nor the Administrative Agent shall have any duty to advise the Guarantors of information known to any of them regarding such condition or any such circumstances. In the event any Lender, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to any one or more of the Guarantors, such Lender shall be under no obligation (i) to undertake any investigation not a part of its regular business routine, (ii) to disclose any information which such Lender, pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance or banking practices, wishes to maintain confidential or (iii) to make any other or future disclosures of such information or any other information to any one or more of the Guarantors.

7. No Marshalling; Reinstatement. The Guarantors consent and agree that none of the Lenders nor the Administrative Agent nor any Person acting for or on behalf of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Guarantors or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. The Guarantors further agree that, to the extent that the Borrower, any one or more of the Guarantors or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations makes a payment or payments to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to the Borrower, any one or more of the Guarantors, such other guarantor or any other Person, or their respective estates, trustees, receivers or any other party, including, without limitation, the Guarantors, under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, the part of the Obligations which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by such amount shall be reinstated and continued in full force and effect as of the time immediately preceding such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction.

8. Subrogation. Until the Obligations have been paid in full and the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment has been terminated, the Guarantors (i) shall have no right of subrogation with respect to such Obligations, (ii) waive any right to enforce any remedy which the Lenders or the Administrative Agent (or any of them) now have or may hereafter have against the Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations or any other Person, and (iii) waive any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (or any of them) to secure the payment or performance of all or any part of the Obligations or any other liability of the Borrower to the Lenders.

9. Subordination.

(a) Subordinated Debt. The payment and performance of all indebtedness or liabilities of the Borrower to the Guarantors whether now existing or hereafter incurred or created, in each case, whether such amounts are due or not due, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent (the “Subordinated Debt”) are hereby subordinated to the Obligations and, except as set forth in subparagraphs (b) and (c) of this Section 9 the Guarantors will not accelerate, ask, demand, ▇▇▇ for, take or receive from the Borrower, by setoff or in any other manner, the whole or any part of the Subordinated Debt, including, without limitation, the taking of any negotiable instruments evidencing such amounts, nor any security for any of the

H-3

Subordinated Debt, unless and until all of the Obligations shall have been fully paid and satisfied in cash and all financing arrangements among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have been terminated.

(b) Permitted Payments. Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (a) of this Section 9, (i) the Borrower may pay to the Guarantors, and the Guarantors may accept from the Borrower, any and all payments of the Subordinated Debt made in the ordinary course of business (“Ordinary Course Payments”) and (ii) in the absence of a “Default” and provided that the payment described below, if made, would not otherwise give rise to the occurrence of a Default, the Borrower may pay to the Guarantors, and the Guarantors may accept from the Borrower, any and all payments of the Subordinated Debt other than the payments described in clause (i) above (“Other Payments” and together with “Ordinary Couse Payments”, “Permitted Payments”).

(c) Enforcement Rights. The Guarantors, prior to the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of all financing arrangements among the Borrower and the Lenders, shall have no right to enforce any claim with respect to the Subordinated Debt, including, without limitation, any Permitted Payment, or otherwise to take any action against the borrower or the Borrower’s Property without the Administrative Agent’s prior written approval.

10. Enforcement; Amendments; Waivers. No delay on the part of any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent in the exercise of any right or remedy arising under this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise with respect to all or any part of the Obligations or any other guaranty of or security for all or any part of the Obligations shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by any such Person of any such right or remedy shall preclude any further exercise thereof. No modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Guaranty shall be binding upon the Lenders or the Administrative Agent, except as expressly set forth in a writing duly signed and delivered by the party making such modification or waiver. Failure by any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent at any time or times hereafter to require strict performance by the Borrower, the Guarantors, any other guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations or any other Person of any of the provisions, warranties, terms and conditions contained in any of the Loan Documents now or at any time or times hereafter executed by such Persons and delivered to the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of the Administrative Agent or such Lender at any time or times hereafter to demand strict performance thereof and such right shall not be deemed to have been waived by any act or knowledge of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or their respective agents, officers or employees, unless such waiver is contained in an instrument in writing, directed and delivered to the Borrower or the Guarantors, as applicable, specifying such waiver, and is signed by the party or parties necessary to give such waiver under the Credit Agreement. No waiver of any Default by the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall operate as a waiver of any other Default or the same Default on a future occasion, and no action by the Administrative Agent or any Lender permitted hereunder shall in any way affect or impair the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s rights and remedies or the obligations of the Guarantors under this Guaranty. Any determination by a court of competent jurisdiction of the amount of any principal and/or interest owing by the Borrower to any of the Lenders shall be conclusive and binding on the Guarantors irrespective of whether any of the Guarantors was party to the suit or action in which such determination was made.

11. Limitation on Obligations. The following provisions of this Guaranty apply with respect to all Guarantors:

(a) The provisions of this Guaranty are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization

H-4

or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under this Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Guarantor’s “Maximum Liability”). This Section 11(a) with respect to the Maximum Liability of the Guarantors, is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and neither the Guarantors nor any other person or entity shall have any right or claim under this Section 11(a) with respect to the Maximum Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law.

(b) Each of the Guarantors agrees that the Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Liability of each Guarantor, and may exceed the aggregate Maximum Liability of all other Guarantors, without impairing this Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent hereunder. Nothing in this Section 9(b) shall be construed to increase any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Liability.

(c) In the event any Guarantor (a “Paying Guarantor”) shall make any payment or payments under this Guaranty or shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this Guaranty, each other Guarantor (each a “Non-Paying Guarantor”) shall contribute to such Paying Guarantor an amount equal to such Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Pro Rata Share” of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such Paying Guarantor. For the purposes hereof, each Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Pro Rata Share” with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying Guarantor shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (i) such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying Guarantor from the Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (ii) the aggregate Maximum Liability of all Guarantors hereunder (including such Paying Guarantor) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Liability has not been determined for any Guarantors, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Guarantors from the Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this Section 11(c) shall affect any Guarantor’s several liability for the entire amount of the Obligations (up to such Guarantor’s Maximum Liability). Each of the Guarantors covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this Guaranty from a Non-Paying Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to all the Obligations. The provisions of this Section 11(c) are for the benefit of both the Administrative Agent and the Guarantors and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

12. Effectiveness; Termination. This Guaranty shall become effective upon its execution by the Guarantors and shall continue in full force and effect and may not be terminated or otherwise revoked until the Obligations shall have been fully paid (in cash) and discharged and the Credit Agreement and all financing arrangements between the Borrower and the Lenders under the Loan Documents shall have been terminated. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guarantors shall have any right under applicable law to terminate or revoke this Guaranty, the Guarantors agree that such termination or

H-5

revocation shall not be effective until a written notice of such revocation or termination, specifically referring hereto, signed by the Guarantors, is actually received by the Administrative Agent. Such notice shall not affect the right and power of any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to enforce rights arising prior to receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent. If any Lender grants loans or takes other action after any of the Guarantors terminates or revokes its obligations under this Guaranty but before the Administrative Agent receives such written notice, the rights of such Lender with respect thereto shall be the same as if such termination or revocation had not occurred.

13. Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. The provisions of Section 10.6 of the Credit Agreement shall apply to each Guarantor, mutatis mutandis.

14. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding upon the Guarantors and upon their successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns; all references herein to the Borrower and to the Guarantors shall be deemed to include their respective successors and assigns. The successors and assigns of the Guarantors and the Borrower shall include, without limitation, their respective receivers, trustees or debtors-in-possession. All references to the singular shall be deemed to include the plural where the context so requires.

15. CHOICE OF LAW. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS (AND NOT THE LAW OF CONFLICTS) OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, BUT GIVING EFFECT TO FEDERAL LAWS APPLICABLE TO NATIONAL BANKS.

16. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE GUARANTORS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK (OR THE STATE COURTS SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN THE EVENT THE FEDERAL COURTS LACK SUBJECT JURISDICTION) IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE GUARANTORS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREE THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH COURT AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE AS TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

17. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE GUARANTORS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, BETWEEN THE GUARANTORS AND THE LENDERS OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH. EITHER THE GUARANTORS OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS GUARANTY WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

18. SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH OF THE GUARANTORS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR IN SECTION 14.1 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT. NOTHING IN THIS GUARANTY WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

H-6

19. Advice of Counsel. The Guarantors represent and warrant that they have consulted with their legal counsel regarding all waivers under this Guaranty, including without limitation those under Section 4 and Sections 14 through 16 hereof, that they believe that they fully understand all rights that they are waiving and the effect of such waivers, that they assume the risk of any misunderstanding that they may have regarding any of the foregoing, and that they intend that such waivers shall be a material inducement to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to extend the indebtedness guaranteed hereby.

20. Notices. All notices and other communications provided to any party hereto shall be in writing or by facsimile and addressed to such party at its address set forth below or at such other address as may be designated by such party in a notice to the other party. Any notice, if mailed and properly addressed with postage prepaid, shall be deemed given when received; any notice, if transmitted by facsimile, shall be deemed given when transmitted.

21. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Guaranty shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Guaranty shall be prohibited by or invalid under such 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 Guaranty.

22. Merger. This Guaranty represents the final agreement of the Guarantors with respect to the matters contained herein and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior or contemporaneous agreements, or subsequent oral agreements, between the Guarantors and the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

23. Supplemental Guaranties. Pursuant to Section 7.16 of the Credit Agreement, additional Subsidiaries of the Borrower may become obligated as Guarantors hereunder (each as fully as
