the Credit Agreement in proper alphabetical order:

 

“Beneficial Ownership Certification” means a certification regarding beneficial
ownership as required by the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

each Lender that was a Lender immediately prior the Sixth Amendment Effective
Date and is not a Sixth Amendment Consenting Lender.

 

(b)           The following definitions in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement
are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:

 

“Base Rate” means the highest of (i) the per annum interest rate publicly
announced from time to time by Wells Fargo in Charlotte, North Carolina, to be
its prime rate (which may not necessarily be its lowest or best lending rate),
as adjusted to conform to changes as of the opening of business on the date of
any such change in such prime rate, (ii) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5% per

implementation of a Replacement Rate in accordance with Section 2.15(h), the
LIBOR Rate for an interest period of one month plus 1.00%, as adjusted to
conform to changes as of the opening of business on the date of any such change
of such LIBOR Rate.

consultation with the Borrower) as of 11:00 a.m. London time, on such day, or if
such day is not a London Banking Day, then the immediately preceding London
Banking Day. If, for any reason, such rate is not so published, then the LIBOR
Market Index Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent to be the
arithmetic average of the rate per annum at which U.S. Dollar deposits would be
offered by first class banks (as determined in consultation with the Borrower)
in the London interbank market to the Administrative Agent at approximately
11:00 a.m., London time, on such date of determination for delivery on the date
in question for a one month term.

“LIBOR Rate” means, subject to the implementation of a Replacement Rate in
accordance with Section 2.15(h):

 

(i)       with respect to each LIBOR Loan denominated in any Currency (other
than Canadian Dollars) comprising part of the same Borrowing for any Interest
Period, an interest rate per annum obtained by dividing (A) (y) the London
Interbank Offered Rate as published by ICE Benchmark Administration Limited, a
United Kingdom company (or a comparable or successor quoting service which is
approved by the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower) for
deposits denominated in such Currency or (z) if such rate is not so published,
the rate of interest determined by the Administrative Agent to be the rate or
the arithmetic mean of rates at which deposits in such Currency in immediately
available funds are offered to first-tier banks (as determined in consultation
with the Borrower) in the London interbank Eurodollar market, in each case under
(y) and (z) above at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two Business Days
prior to the first day of such Interest Period for a period substantially equal
to such Interest Period, by (B) the amount equal to 1.00 minus the Reserve
Requirement (expressed as a decimal) for such Interest Period; and

 

(ii)       with respect to each LIBOR Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars
comprising part of the same Borrowing for any Interest Period, an interest rate
per annum determined by the Administrative Agent on the basis of an average rate
applicable to Canadian Dollar bankers’ acceptances having a maturity comparable
to the applicable Interest Period appearing on the “Reuters Screen CDOR Page”
(as defined in the International Swap Dealer Association, Inc.’s definitions),
or other commercially available source providing quotations of such rate as
selected by the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, from
time to time, at approximately 10:00 a.m., Toronto time, on the first day of
such Interest Period (or if such day is not a Business Day, then on the
immediately preceding Business Day); provided that if, for any reason, such rate
does not appear on the Reuters Screen CDOR Page on such day, then the “LIBOR
Rate” on such day for any LIBOR Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars shall be
calculated as the rate (rounded upwards to the nearest basis point) quoted by
The Toronto-Dominion Bank (or its successors or assigns or such other bank
listed in Schedule I to the Bank Act (Canada) as the Administrative Agent may
from time to time designate) as its discount rate for the purchase of Canadian
Dollar bankers’ acceptances in an amount substantially equal to such LIBOR Loan
with a term comparable to such Interest Period at approximately 10:00 a.m.,
Toronto time, on the first day of such Interest Period (or if such day is not a
Business Day, then on the immediately preceding Business Day); and

 

 3 

 

 

(iii)       for any interest rate calculation with respect to a Base Rate Loan,
the rate of interest per annum determined on the basis of the London Interbank
Offered Rate for U.S. Dollar deposits for delivery on the date in question for a
one month term beginning on that date as published by ICE Benchmark
Administration Limited, a United Kingdom company (or other commercially
available source providing quotations of such rate as selected by the
Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, from time to time) at
approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such date of determination, or, if
such date is not a Business Day, then the immediately preceding Business Day.
If, for any reason, such rate is not so published, then “LIBOR” for such Base
Rate Loan shall be determined by the Administrative Agent to be the arithmetic
average of the rate per annum at which U.S. Dollar deposits would be offered by
first class banks (as determined in consultation with the Borrower) in the
London interbank market to the Administrative Agent at approximately 11:00 a.m.,
London time, on such date of determination for delivery on the date in question
for a one month term.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) if any determination of any rate described in
this definition would result in the LIBOR Rate being less than zero, then such
rate shall be deemed to be zero and (y) unless otherwise specified in any
amendment to this Agreement entered into in accordance with Section 2.15(h), in
the event that a Replacement Rate with respect to the LIBOR Rate is implemented,
then all references herein to LIBOR Rate shall be deemed references to such
Replacement Rate.

 

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that
(1) as of the date hereof, ICE Benchmark Administration Ltd. is a subsidiary of
the Borrower, and (2) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender, solely in
their respective capacities as such under this Agreement, shall have any direct
claim under this Agreement against the Borrower on account of any action taken
by ICE Benchmark Administration Ltd. in its capacity as a provider of any
quotations or rates referred to this definition.

 

“Maturity Date” means (a) with respect to each Sixth Amendment Consenting
Lender, the Final Maturity Date, and (b) with respect to each Sixth Amendment
Non-Consenting Lender, the Original Maturity Date.

 

“Original Maturity Date” means the fifth anniversary of the Fifth Amendment
Effective Date; provided, however, that, if such date is not a Business Day,
then the Original Maturity Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day.

 

(c)           Section 1.6 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting
the first sentence therein.

 

(d)           Section 2.15(e) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and
restated in its entirety as follows:

 

 4 

 

 

(e)       Inadequacy or Indeterminacy. Unless and until a Replacement Rate is
implemented in accordance with clause (h) below, if, on or prior to the first
day of any Interest Period, (y) the Administrative Agent shall have determined
in good faith that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining
the applicable LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period or (z) the Administrative
Agent shall have received written notice from the Required Lenders of their
determination in good faith that the rate of interest referred to in the
definition of “LIBOR Rate” upon the basis of which the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for
LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period is to be determined will not adequately and
fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining LIBOR Loans
during such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify
the Borrower and the Lenders. Upon such notice, (i) all then outstanding LIBOR
Loans shall automatically, on the expiration date of the respective Interest
Periods applicable thereto (unless then repaid in full), be converted into Base
Rate Loans, (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, to convert Base Rate
Loans into, or to continue, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended (including pursuant
to the Borrowing to which such Interest Period applies), and (iii) any Notice of
Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given at any time thereafter with
respect to LIBOR Loans shall be deemed to be a request for Base Rate Loans, in
each case until the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, as the case
may be, shall have determined that the circumstances giving rise to such
suspension no longer exist (and the Required Lenders, if making such
determination, shall have so notified the Administrative Agent), and the
Administrative Agent shall have so notified the Borrower and the Lenders.

 

(e)           New Section 2.15(h) is hereby inserted into the Credit Agreement
immediately following Section 2.15(g) of the Credit Agreement:

 

 5 

 

 

(h)       Alternative Rate of Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in Section 2.15(e), if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower have made the
determination that (i) the circumstances described in Section 2.15(e)(y) have
arisen and that such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (ii) any
applicable interest rate specified herein is no longer a widely recognized
benchmark rate for newly originated loans in the U.S. syndicated loan market in
the applicable Currency or (iii) the applicable supervisor or administrator (if
any) of any applicable interest rate specified herein or any Governmental
Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public
statement identifying a specific date after which any applicable interest rate
specified herein shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for
loans in the U.S. syndicated loan market in the applicable Currency (such
specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”), then the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to establish a replacement
interest rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market
convention for determining a benchmark reference rate for syndicated loans in
the United States at such time (the “Replacement Rate”), in which case, the
Replacement Rate shall, subject to the next two sentences, replace such
applicable interest rate for all purposes under the Credit Documents unless and
until (A) an event described in Section 2.15(e)(y), (h)(i), (h)(ii) or (h)(iii)
occurs with respect to the Replacement Rate or (B) the Administrative Agent (at
the direction of the Required Lenders) notifies the Borrower that the
Replacement Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders
of funding the Loans bearing interest at the Replacement Rate. In connection
with the establishment and application of the Replacement Rate, this Agreement
and the other Credit Documents shall be amended solely with the consent of the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower, as may be necessary or appropriate, in
the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the
provisions of this Section 2.15(h), including, without limitation and as
applicable, any proposed conforming changes to the definition of “Base Rate,”
“LIBOR Market Index Rate,” “Interest Period,” timing and frequency of
determining rates and making payments of interest and other matters as may be
appropriate, as agreed between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to
reflect the adoption of such Replacement Rate and to permit the administration
thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with
market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent determines that adoption of any
portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or that no
market practice for the administration of such Replacement Rate yet exists, in
such other manner of administration as the Administrative Agent determines with
the consent of the Borrower). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement or the other Credit Documents, such amendment shall become effective
without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so
long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5)
Business Days of the delivery of such amendment to the Lenders, written notices
from such Lenders that in the aggregate constitute Required Lenders, with each
such notice stating that such Lender objects to such amendment (which such
notice shall note with specificity the particular provisions of the amendment to
which such Lender objects, it being understood that the Required Lenders need
not specify identical objectionable provisions of the amendment in order to
constitute effective notice). If no Replacement Rate has been determined and the
circumstances under clause (i) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date
has occurred (as applicable), the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify
the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (A) the obligation of the Lenders to
make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the
affected LIBOR Rate Loans or Interest Periods), (B) the LIBOR Rate component
shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate and (C) each
outstanding LIBOR Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then
existing Interest Period therefor, be prepaid by the Borrower or be
automatically converted into a Base Rate Loan at the Borrower’s option. Upon
receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a
Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans (to the extent
of the affected LIBOR Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be
deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base
Rate Loans (subject to the foregoing clause (B)) in the amount specified
therein.

 

(f)           Section 5.2(c) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by
(i) deleting the word “and” from the end of clause (iii) therein;
(ii) redesignating clause (iv) therein as clause (v); and (iii) inserting the
following as a new clause (iv) therein:

 

(iv)       any change in the information provided in any Beneficial Ownership
Certification previously delivered by the Borrower that would result in a change
to the list of beneficial owners identified in parts (c) or (d) of such
certification, if applicable (it being understood that disclosure of any such
change in the Borrower’s SEC filings shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements
of this Section 5.2(c)(iv)); and

 

(g)           The Commitment Schedule set forth on Schedule 1.1(a) (Commitments
and Notice Addresses) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in
its entirety as follows:
