Lenders or by the Company and the Required Incremental Lenders for the relevant
Series, as the case may be, or by the Company and the Administrative Agent with
the consent of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders or with the consent of the
Required Incremental Lenders for the relevant Series, as the case may be) and,
pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable Margins shall be
determined by reference to the Ratings most recently in effect prior to such

Applicable Margins based upon the Total Leverage Ratio, immediately upon S&P or

clause (i) of the first sentence of this paragraph) and ending on the date
immediately preceding the effective date of any next such change; provided that
the Total Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be greater than 1.50 to 1 if the

Series (as applicable) hereunder and (c) with respect to any Lender with respect
to the participations to be purchased pursuant to Section 11.07, the percentage
of the total Revolving Credit Exposure and Incremental Loan Exposure of all
Series represented by the aggregate amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit
Exposure and Incremental Loan Exposure of all Series (as applicable); provided

non-Defaulting Lender shall mean the percentage of the relevant Commitments,

ARTICLE II
LOAN COMMITMENTS
          SECTION 2.01. Revolving Credit Commitments.
          (a) Revolving Credit Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set
forth herein, each Revolving Credit Lender agrees to make Syndicated Revolving
Credit Loans to the Borrowers from time to time during the Revolving Credit
Availability Period, in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount that will not
result in such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s
Revolving Credit Commitment, provided that (i) the aggregate outstanding
principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans shall not at any
time exceed the Revolving Credit Loan Sublimit and (ii) the total Revolving
Credit Exposure shall not at any time exceed the total Revolving Credit
Commitments. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions
set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Credit
Loans.
          (b) Incremental Loans. In addition to Borrowings of Syndicated
Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to paragraph (a) above, at any time and from
time to time, the Company may request that any one or more of the Lenders or, at
the option of the Company, other financial institutions or funds selected by the
Company offer to enter into commitments to make additional revolving Incremental
Loans, in Dollars, under this paragraph (b) to the Borrowers. In the event that
one or more of the Lenders or such other financial institutions or funds offer,
in their sole discretion, to enter into such commitments, and such Lenders or
financial institutions or funds and the Company agree as to the amount of such
commitments that shall be allocated to the respective Lenders or financial
institutions or funds making such offers and the fees (if any) to be payable by
the Borrowers in connection therewith, such Lenders or financial institutions or
funds shall become obligated to make Incremental Loans under this Agreement in
an amount equal to the amount of their respective Incremental Loan Commitments
(and such financial institutions shall become “Incremental Lenders” hereunder).
The Incremental Loans to be made pursuant to any such agreement between the
Company in response to any such request by the Company shall be deemed to be a
separate “Series” of Incremental Loans for all purposes of this Agreement.
          Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the minimum
aggregate principal amount of Incremental Loan Commitments entered into pursuant
to any such request (and, accordingly, the minimum aggregate principal amount of
any Series of Incremental Loans) shall be

- 30 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

$20,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000 and (ii) immediately after giving
effect to the establishment of each Incremental Loan Commitment, the sum of the
Net Commitment Increase Amount plus the Net Incremental Increase Amount plus the
aggregate undrawn amount of all Secured LOCs shall not exceed $225,000,000.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Incremental Loans of any
Series shall have the interest rate, participation and other fees, commitment
reduction schedule (if any) and maturity date, and be subject to such conditions
to effectiveness and initial credit extension, as shall be agreed upon by the
respective Incremental Lenders of such Series, the Company and (other than in
the case of any commitment reduction schedule or maturity date) the
Administrative Agent (which agreement by the Administrative Agent shall not be
unreasonably withheld), provided that in any event (i) the Incremental Loans
shall be subject to, and entitled to the benefits of, the collateral security
and Guarantees provided for herein and in the other Loan Documents on an equal
and ratable basis with each other Guaranteed Obligation, (ii) the maturity for
Incremental Loans shall not be earlier than the Commitment Termination Date and
may be later than the Commitment Termination Date to the extent so agreed by the
Company and such Incremental Lenders and (iii) the weighted
average-life-to-maturity for each Series of Incremental Loans shall not be
shorter than the remaining Revolving Credit Availability Period.
          Following the acceptance by the Company of the offers made by any one
or more Lenders to make any Series of Incremental Loans pursuant to the
foregoing provisions of this paragraph (b), each Incremental Lender in respect
of such Series of Incremental Loans severally agrees, on the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, to make such Incremental Loans to the Borrowers
during the period from and including the date of such acceptance to and
including the commitment termination date specified in the agreement entered
into with respect to such Series in an aggregate principal amount up to but not
exceeding the amount of the Incremental Loan Commitment of such Incremental
Lender in respect of such Series as in effect from time to time. Thereafter,
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrowers may convert
Incremental Loans of such Series of one Type into Incremental Loans of such
Series of another Type (as provided in Section 2.07) or continue Incremental
Loans of such Series of one Type as Incremental Loans of such Series of the same
Type (as provided in Section 2.07).
          SECTION 2.02. Loans and Borrowings.
          (a) Obligations Several. Each Revolving Credit Loan or Incremental
Loan of a particular Class and Type (other than Swingline Loans, as to which the
provisions of Section 2.04 shall be applicable) shall be made as part of a
Borrowing consisting of Loans of such Class and Type made by the respective
Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.
The failure of any such Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall
not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the
Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for
any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.
          (b) Type of Loans. Subject to Section 2.14, each Syndicated Borrowing
of a Class shall be constituted entirely of ABR Loans or of Eurodollar Loans of
such Class as the respective Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each
Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or
foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to

- 31 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the
obligation of such Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement.
          (c) Minimum Amounts. Each Revolving Credit Loan or Incremental Loan
Borrowing (whether Eurodollar, Syndicated ABR or Swingline) shall be in an
aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000; provided that
(i) each Swingline Loan shall be in an amount equal to $500,000 or a larger
multiple of $250,000 and (ii) any Borrowing of a Class may be in an aggregate
amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Commitments of
such Class or, in the case of Revolving Credit Loans, that is required to
finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by
Section 2.05(f). Borrowings of more than one Class and Type may be outstanding
at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total
of ten Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding.
          (d) Limitations on Interest Periods. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, a Borrower shall not be entitled to request (or to
elect to convert to or continue as a Eurodollar Borrowing) any Revolving Credit
Borrowing if the Interest Period requested therefor would end after the
Commitment Termination Date, or any Incremental Loan Borrowing of any Series if
the Interest Period requested therefor would end after the commitment
termination date for such Series.
          SECTION 2.03. Requests for Borrowings.
          (a) Notice by the Borrowers. To request a Syndicated Borrowing, the
respective Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by
telephone (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m.,

Borrowing or (ii) in the case of a Syndicated ABR Borrowing, not later than

such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed

Administrative Agent and signed by the relevant Borrower.
          (b) Content of Request for Syndicated Loans. Each telephonic and

- 32 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     (v) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period therefor,
which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest
Period” and permitted under Section 2.02(d); and
     (vi) the location and number of the respective Borrower’s account to which
funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of
Section 2.06.
          (c) Notice by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders. Promptly
following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the
Administrative Agent shall advise each Revolving Credit Lender or relevant
Incremental Lenders, as the case may be, of the details thereof and of the
amounts of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.
          (d) Failure to Elect. If no election as to the Type of a Syndicated
Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing.
If a Eurodollar Borrowing is requested but no Interest Period is specified, the
requested Borrowing shall be a Eurodollar Borrowing having an Interest Period of
one month’s duration.
          SECTION 2.04. Swingline Loans.
          (a) Agreement to Make Swingline Loans. Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans
to the Borrowers from time to time during the Revolving Credit Availability
Period, in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding
that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding
Swingline Loans exceeding $10,000,000, (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal
amount of Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans exceeding the Revolving
Credit Loan Sublimit or (iii) the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the
aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments, provided that the Swingline Lender shall
not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline
Loan. All Swingline Loans shall be ABR Loans. Within the foregoing limits and
subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow,
prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.
          (b) Notice of Swingline Loans by the Borrowers. To request a Swingline
Loan, the respective Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such
request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or other electronic transmission)
not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the day of such proposed
Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the
requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and the amount of the requested
Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline
Lender of any such notice received from a Borrower. The Swingline Lender shall
make each Swingline Loan available to such Borrower by means of a credit to the
general deposit account of such Borrower with the Swingline Lender (or, in the
case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement
as provided in Section 2.05(f), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Lender)
by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.
          (c) Participations by Lenders in Swingline Loans. The Swingline Lender
may, by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than
10:00 a.m., New York

- 33 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

City time on any Business Day, require the Revolving Credit Lenders to acquire
participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans
then outstanding. Such notice to the Administrative Agent shall specify the
aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which the applicable Lenders will
participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will
give notice thereof to each applicable Lender, specifying in such notice such
Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Lender
hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided
above in this paragraph, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for account of the
Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or
Loans, provided that no Lender shall be required to purchase a participation in
a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph (c) if (x) the conditions set forth
in Section 6.02 would not be satisfied in respect of a Borrowing at the time
such Swingline Loan was made and (y) the Required Revolving Credit Lenders shall
have so notified the Swingline Lender in writing before such Swingline Loan was
made and shall not have subsequently determined that the circumstances giving
rise to such conditions not being satisfied no longer exist.
          Subject to the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges
and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans
pursuant to this paragraph (c) is absolute and unconditional and shall not be
affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and
continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit
Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset,
abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Credit Lender
shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of
immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with
respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis
mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders), and the
Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so
received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall
notify the applicable Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan
acquired pursuant to this paragraph (c), and thereafter payments in respect of
such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the
Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from such
Borrower (or other party on behalf of such Borrower) in respect of a Swingline
Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of
participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent;
any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted
by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments
pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may
appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this
paragraph shall not relieve a Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.
          SECTION 2.05. Letters of Credit.
          (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein
(including the penultimate paragraph of Section 2.05(b)), in addition to the
Revolving Credit Loans provided for in Section 2.01, any Borrower may request
the issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account (or for the account of any
of its Subsidiaries) by an Issuing Lender, at any time and from time to time
during the period commencing on the Restatement Effective Date through and
including the date five Business Days preceding the Commitment Termination Date,
which Letters of Credit may be denominated in Dollars or in any Agreed Foreign
Currency and shall be

- 34 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

in such form as is acceptable to such Issuing Lender in its reasonable
determination, provided that no Issuing Lender shall be under any obligation to
issue any Letter of Credit if the issuance of such Letter of Credit would
violate one or more of the policies of such Issuing Lender generally applicable
to the issuance of letters of credit (other than policies as to expiration dates
that conflict with Section 2.05(d)). Letters of Credit issued hereunder shall
constitute utilization of the Revolving Credit Commitments up to the aggregate
amount available to be drawn thereunder.
          (b) Notice of Issuance; Redesignation, Etc. To request the issuance of
a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding
Letter of Credit), the respective Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or
transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been
approved by the respective Issuing Lender) to an Issuing Lender and the
Administrative Agent (by the times specified in the next following sentence) a
notice requesting the issuance of such Letter of Credit, or identifying the
Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the
date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with
paragraph (d) of this Section), the amount and Currency of such Letter of
Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other
information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter
of Credit. Such notice shall be given to the Administrative Agent (i) in the
case of a Letter of Credit to be denominated in Dollars, not later than 11:00
a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension and (ii) in the case of a Letter of
Credit to be denominated in a Foreign Currency, not later than 11:00 a.m.,
London time, three Business Days (or four Business Days if longer notice is
determined by the Administrative Agent to be required) before the date of the
proposed issuance, amendment, renewal or extension.
          If requested by such Issuing Lender, such Borrower also shall submit a
letter of credit application on such Issuing Lender’s standard form in
connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. In the event of any
inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms
and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement
submitted by a Borrower to, or entered into by a Borrower with, an Issuing
Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this
Agreement shall control.
          Each Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of
any Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by it hereunder (or
any Letter of Credit that shall have been cancelled or terminated) and shall
deliver a report (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent) on the last Business Day of each month after the
Restatement Effective Date detailing its Letter of Credit activity under this
Agreement during such month.
          (c) Limitation on Amount. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended,
renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension
of each Letter of Credit the respective Borrower shall be deemed to represent
and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or
extension the total Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the total
Revolving Credit Commitments.
          (d) Expiration Date. The applicable Borrower will have the right to
request that the expiration date for a Letter of Credit be fixed (without giving
effect to any extension

- 35 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

thereof by reason of an interruption of business) for any date selected by such
Borrower that is not later than five Business Days prior to the Commitment
Termination Date. If any Letter of Credit includes an extension clause, it may
provide that the respective Issuing Lender shall have the option to refuse to
extend the expiration of such Letter of Credit to a date that is later than five
Business Days prior to the Commitment Termination Date (and with respect to each
such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall refuse to do so) or that
automatic extensions thereof will not be effective if the extended expiration
date is later than the date five Business Days prior to the Commitment
Termination Date.
          (e) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an
amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) by any Issuing
Lender, and without any further action on the part of such Issuing Lender or any
Lender, such Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Revolving Credit Lender, and
each Revolving Credit Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Lender, a
participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s
Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such
Letter of Credit. Such granting and acquisition of participations in Existing
Letters of Credit shall occur automatically and without further action on the
Restatement Effective Date. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees
that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph is
absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance
whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of
Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or
termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, and that each such payment
shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction
whatsoever.
          In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving
Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent, for account of the respective Issuing Lender, such
Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Dollar Equivalent of each
LC Disbursement (calculated on the date of such LC Disbursement) made by such
Issuing Lender in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender
promptly upon the request of such Issuing Lender at any time from the time of
such LC Disbursement until such LC Disbursement is reimbursed by the respective
Borrower or at any time after any reimbursement payment is required to be
refunded to such Borrower for any reason. Such payment shall be made without any
offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each such payment shall
be made in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Revolving
Credit Loans made by such Revolving Credit Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply,
mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders),
and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to such Issuing Lender the
amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. Promptly following
receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from a Borrower pursuant to
the next following paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such
payment to the respective Issuing Lender or, to the extent that the Revolving
Credit Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such
Issuing Lender, then to such Revolving Credit Lenders and such Issuing Lender as
their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this
paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement shall not
constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the respective Borrower of its
obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

- 36 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

          (f) Reimbursement. If an Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement
in respect of a Letter of Credit, the respective Borrower shall reimburse such
Issuing Lender in respect of such LC Disbursement by paying to the
Administrative Agent an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such LC
Disbursement (calculated on the date of such LC Disbursement) not later than
12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the
day that such Borrower receives notice of such LC Disbursement, provided that,
if the Dollar Equivalent of such LC Disbursement is not less than $1,000,000,
such Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein,
request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.04 that such payment be financed
with a Syndicated ABR Borrowing or a Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and,
to the extent so financed, such Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall
be discharged and replaced by the resulting Syndicated ABR Borrowing or
Swingline Loan.
          If the respective Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the
Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the applicable
LC Disbursement, the payment then due from such Borrower in respect thereof and
such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Dollar Equivalent
thereof.
          (g) Obligations Absolute. A Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC
Disbursements made in respect of a Letter of Credit issued for its account as
provided in paragraph (f) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and
irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of
(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, or any term
or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter
of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any
statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by
the respective Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a
draft or other document that does not comply strictly with the terms of such
Letter of Credit and (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or
not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this
Section 2.05, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of such Borrower’s
obligations hereunder.
          Neither the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Credit Lenders nor any
Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or
responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of
any Letter of Credit by any Issuing Lender or any payment or failure to make any
payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the
preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in
transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or
relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a
drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any
consequence arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuing Lender;
provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse an Issuing Lender
from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed
to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the
Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrowers
that are caused by such Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct
when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of
Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that:

- 37 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     (i) an Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be
in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit without
responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or
information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents
that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such
Letter of Credit;
     (ii) an Issuing Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to
decline to accept such documents and to make such payment if such documents are
not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and
     (iii) this sentence shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by
an Issuing Lender when determining whether drafts and other documents presented
under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto
hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any standard of care
inconsistent with the foregoing).
          (h) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Lender for any Letter of
Credit shall, within a reasonable time following its receipt thereof, examine
all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under any Letter of
Credit. Such Issuing Lender shall promptly after such examination notify the
Administrative Agent and the relevant Borrower for whose account such Letter of
Credit was issued by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for
payment and whether such Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement
thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice
shall not relieve such Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing
Lender and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any such LC
Disbursement.
          (i) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Lender for any Letter of Credit
shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrowers shall reimburse such
LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid
amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date
such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrowers
reimburse such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to
Syndicated ABR Loans; provided that, if the Borrowers fail to reimburse such LC
Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section, then
Section 2.12(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall
be for the account of such Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and
after the date of payment by any Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to paragraph
(f) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Lender shall be for the account of
such Revolving Credit Lender to the extent of such payment.
          (j) Existing Letters of Credit. Any letter of credit that has been
issued under the Existing Credit Agreement by an Issuing Lender hereunder and
that is designated as a “Letter of Credit” hereunder by the Company in a notice
substantially in the form of Exhibit H to the Administrative Agent and such
Issuing Lender on the Restatement Effective Date (each such letter of credit
being referred to herein as an “Existing Letter of Credit”) shall, on the
Restatement Effective Date, become a Letter of Credit of such Issuing Lender
hereunder.
          (k) Cash Collateralization. If any Borrower shall be required to
provide cover for LC Exposure pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of Section 2.10,
or the last paragraph of

- 38 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Article IX, such Borrower shall immediately deposit into a segregated collateral
account or accounts (collectively, the “Letter of Credit Collateral Account”) in
the name and under the dominion and control of the Administrative Agent cash in
an amount in Dollars equal to the amount required under said paragraphs of
Section 2.10 or the last paragraph of Article IX, as applicable. Such deposit
shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral in the first instance
for the LC Exposure under this Agreement and, subject to the immediately
following paragraph, thereafter for the payment of the other Guaranteed
Obligations, and for these purposes each Borrower hereby grants a security
interest to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in such
Letter of Credit Collateral Account and in any financial assets (as defined in
the Uniform Commercial Code) or other property held therein.
          Amounts deposited in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account by any
Borrower pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of Section 2.10 shall be retained by
the Administrative Agent and (i) in the case of amounts deposited pursuant to
said paragraph (c), (x) applied to the payment of LC Disbursements in respect of
Letters of Credit as and when the same shall become due (applied ratably to the
respective amounts then due and payable to the respective Issuing Lenders) and
(y) when all Letters of Credit shall have been drawn in full or terminated or
expired or the condition set forth in said paragraph (c) ceases to exist, any
balance therein shall be remitted to such Borrower upon three Business Days’
prior request to the Administrative Agent and (ii) in the case of amounts
deposited pursuant to said paragraph (d), either (x) applied to the payment when
due of that portion of the LC Disbursements made by the respective Issuing
Lenders in excess of the amount thereof that the Revolving Credit Lenders are
required to pay to the Issuing Lenders under paragraph (e) of this Section in
respect of drawings on Letters of Credit (applied to the respective Issuing
Lenders ratably in accordance with such excess amounts held by them) or (y)
remitted to such Borrower as and to the extent required by Section 2.10(d),
provided that, if any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the
Lenders shall request the provision of cover for outstanding Letters of Credit
pursuant to the last paragraph of Article IX, then the amounts deposited
pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of Section 2.10 shall be deemed to have instead
been deposited pursuant to the last paragraph of Article IX.
          Amounts deposited in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account by any
Borrower pursuant to the last paragraph of Article IX shall be retained by the
Administrative Agent until the payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations and
shall be applied as follows: first, to the payment of LC Disbursements in
respect of Letters of Credit (applied to the LC Disbursements of the respective
Issuing Lenders ratably in accordance with the respective amounts thereof),
second, to the ratable payment of other Guaranteed Obligations that are then due
and payable and third, after the payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations,
any balance in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall be remitted to such
Borrower.
          SECTION 2.06. Funding of Revolving Credit and Incremental Loan
Borrowings.
          (a) Funding by Lenders. Each Lender shall make each Revolving Credit
Loan or Incremental Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof
by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 1:00 p.m., New York City
time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it
for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall
be made as provided in Section 2.04. The Administrative Agent will make such
Loans available to the respective Borrower by promptly crediting the

- 39 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of such Borrower designated by
such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that Syndicated ABR
Borrowings made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided
in Section 2.05(f) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the
respective Issuing Lender.
          (b) Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative
Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any
Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent
such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that
such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with
paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption and in
its sole discretion, make available to the relevant Borrower a corresponding
amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the
applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable
Lender and such Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent
forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each
day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower
to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the
case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or (ii) in the case of
such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays
such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such
Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.
          SECTION 2.07. Interest Elections.
          (a) Elections for Syndicated Borrowings. Subject to Section 2.03(d),
the Loans constituting each Syndicated Borrowing initially shall be of the Type
specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar
Borrowing, shall have the Interest Period specified in such Borrowing Request.
Thereafter, the respective Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a
Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such Borrowing as a Borrowing of
the same Type and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect the Interest
Period therefor, all as provided in this Section; provided that (i) a Syndicated
Borrowing of a Class may only be continued or converted into a Syndicated
Borrowing of the same Class and (ii) no Eurodollar Borrowing of any Class may be
continued if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate Revolving Credit
Exposures or Incremental Loan Exposures of the relevant Class would exceed the
aggregate Commitments. The respective Borrower may elect different options with
respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such
portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders of the respective Class
holding the Loans constituting such Borrowing, and the Loans constituting each
such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not
apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.
          (b) Notice of Elections. To make an election pursuant to this Section,
a Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone
by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if
such Borrower were requesting a Syndicated Borrowing of the Type resulting from
such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such
telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed
promptly (but no later than the close of business on the date of such request)
by hand delivery or telecopy or other electronic transmission to the
Administrative Agent of a written

- 40 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and
signed by the relevant Borrower.
          (c) Content of Interest Election Requests. Each telephonic and written
Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance
with Section 2.02:
     (i) the Borrowing (including the Class) to which such Interest Election
Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to
different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each
resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to
clauses (iii) and (iv) of this paragraph shall be specified for each resulting
Borrowing);
     (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest
Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;
     (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a
Eurodollar Borrowing; and
     (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest
Period therefor after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period
contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period” and permitted under
Section 2.02(d).
          (d) Notification by Administrative Agent to Lenders. Promptly
following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent
shall advise each affected Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s
portion of each resulting Borrowing.
          (e) Failure to Elect; Events of Default. If the respective Borrower
fails to deliver a timely and complete Interest Election Request with respect to
a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, then,
unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest
Period such Borrowing shall be converted to a Syndicated ABR Borrowing of the
same Class. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent at the
request of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders (in the case of Revolving
Credit Borrowings) or the Required Incremental Lenders for a particular Series
(in the case of Incremental Borrowings of such Series) so notifies such
Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing no outstanding
Eurodollar Borrowing may have an Interest Period of more than one month’s
duration.
          SECTION 2.08. Termination, Reduction and Increase of Revolving Credit
Commitments.
          (a) Scheduled Termination and Reduction. Unless previously terminated,
(i) the Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate at the close of business on
the Commitment Termination Date and (ii) the Incremental Loan Commitments of any
Series shall terminate on the close of business on the commitment termination
date, and shall reduce on the dates and in the amounts (if any), in each case
specified in the agreement establishing such Series pursuant to Section 2.01(b).

- 41 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

          (b) Voluntary Terminations and Reductions. The Borrowers may at any
time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class;
provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of such Class shall be in an
amount that is at least equal to $10,000,000 or any greater multiple of
$5,000,000, (ii) the Borrowers shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving
Credit Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of
Revolving Credit Loans (or cover for Letters of Credit by deposit by any Obligor
to the Letter of Credit Collateral Account) in accordance with the terms hereof,
the total Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Revolving Credit
Commitments and (iii) the Borrowers shall not terminate or reduce the
Incremental Loan Commitments of any Series if, after giving effect to any
concurrent prepayment of the Incremental Loans of such Series in accordance with
Section 2.10, the total Incremental Loan Exposures of such Series would exceed
the total Incremental Loan Commitments of such Series.
          (c) Notification of Termination or Reduction. The Borrowers shall
notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce
Commitments of any Class under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three
Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction,
specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following
receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the affected
Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrowers pursuant
to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of
Commitments of a Class delivered by the Borrowers may state that such notice is
conditioned upon the issuance of securities or the effectiveness of other credit
facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrowers (by notice
to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such
condition is not satisfied.
          (d) Effect of Termination or Reduction. Any termination or reduction
of the Commitments of a Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the
Commitments of a Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders of such Class in
accordance with their respective Commitments.
          (e) Increase of the Commitments.
     (i) Requests for Increase by Borrowers. The Borrowers may, at any time
prior to the Commitment Termination Date, propose that the Revolving Credit
Commitments be increased (each such proposed increase being a “Commitment
Increase”) by notice to the Administrative Agent, specifying each existing
Revolving Credit Lender (each an “Increasing Lender”) and/or each additional
lender (each an “Assuming Lender”) that shall have agreed to an additional
Revolving Credit Commitment and the date on which such increase is to be
effective (the “Commitment Increase Date”), which shall be a Business Day at
least three Business Days after delivery of such notice and 30 days prior to the
Commitment Termination Date; provided that:
     (A) the minimum amount of any such increase shall be $20,000,000 or a
larger multiple of $1,000,000, and the minimum amount of the Revolving Credit
Commitment of any Assuming Lender, and the minimum amount of the increase of the
Revolving Credit Commitment of any Increasing Lender, as part of such

- 42 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     Commitment Increase shall be $5,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000
in excess thereof;
     (B) immediately after giving effect to each Commitment Increase, the sum of
the Net Commitment Increase Amount plus the Net Incremental Increase Amount plus
the aggregate undrawn amount of all Secured LOCs shall not exceed $225,000,000;
     (C) the Company shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent
certificate of the Company stating on such Commitment Increase Date that (i) no
Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) the representations and
warranties contained in this Agreement are true and correct in all material
respects as if made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or
warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such
specific date); and
     (D) each Assuming Lender shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent
and each Issuing Lender (who agree not to withhold acceptance unreasonably).
     (ii) Effectiveness of Commitment Increase. Each Assuming Lender, if any,
shall become a Revolving Credit Lender hereunder as of such Commitment Increase
Date and the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Increasing Lender and such
Assuming Lender shall be increased as of such Commitment Increase Date; provided
that:
     (x) the Administrative Agent shall have received on or prior to 11:00 a.m.,
New York City time, on such Commitment Increase Date (or on or prior to a time
on an earlier date specified by the Administrative Agent) a certificate of a
duly authorized officer of the Company stating that each of the applicable
conditions to such Commitment Increase set forth in the foregoing paragraph
(i) has been satisfied; and
     (y) each Assuming Lender or Increasing Lender shall have delivered to the
Administrative Agent, on or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time on such
Commitment Increase Date (or on or prior to a time on an earlier date specified
by the Administrative Agent), an agreement, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which
such Lender shall, effective as of such Commitment Increase Date, undertake a
Revolving Credit Commitment or an increase of Revolving Credit Commitment duly
executed by such Assuming Lender and the Borrowers and acknowledged by the
Administrative Agent.
Promptly following satisfaction of such conditions, the Administrative Agent
shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders (including any Assuming Lenders)
thereof and of the occurrence of the Commitment Increase Date by facsimile
transmission or electronic messaging system.

- 43 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     (iii) Recordation into Register. Upon its receipt of an agreement referred
to in clause (ii)(y) above executed by an Assuming Lender or any Increasing
Lender, together with the certificate referred to in clause (ii)(x) above, the
Administrative Agent shall, if such agreement has been completed, (x) accept
such agreement, (y) record the information contained therein in the Register and
(z) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrowers.
     (iv) Adjustments of Borrowings. On the Commitment Increase Date, the
Borrowers shall (A) prepay in full the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans (if
any) made to them, (B) simultaneously borrow new Revolving Credit Loans
hereunder in an amount equal to such prepayment and (C) pay to the Revolving
Credit Lenders the amounts, if any, payable under Section 2.15 as a result of
any such prepayment; provided that with respect to subclauses (A) and (B),
(x) the prepayment to, and borrowing from, any existing Lender shall be effected
by book entry to the extent that any portion of the amount prepaid to such
Lender will be subsequently borrowed from such Lender and (y) the existing
Lenders, the Increasing Lenders and the Assuming Lenders shall make and receive
payments among themselves, in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent,
so that, after giving effect thereto, the Revolving Credit Borrowings are held
ratably by the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with the respective
Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders (after giving
effect to such Commitment Increase). Concurrently therewith, the Revolving
Credit Lenders shall be deemed to have adjusted their participation interests in
any outstanding Letters of Credit so that such interests are held ratably in
accordance with their Revolving Credit Commitments as so increased.
     SECTION 2.09. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.
          (a) Repayment. The Borrowers hereby unconditionally jointly and
severally promise to pay the Loans of each Class as follows:
     (i) to the Administrative Agent for account of the Revolving Credit
Lenders, the outstanding principal amount of the Syndicated Revolving Credit
Loans on the Commitment Termination Date;
     (ii) to the Swingline Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each
Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Commitment Termination Date and the fifth
Business Day after such Swingline Loan is made; and
     (iii) to the Administrative Agent for account of the Incremental Lenders of
any Series, the outstanding principal amount of the Incremental Loans of such
Series on the maturity date for such Incremental Loans specified at the date
such Incremental Loans are established hereunder.
          (b) Manner of Payment. Prior to any repayment or prepayment of any
Borrowings of any Class hereunder, the respective Borrower shall select the
Borrowing or Borrowings of such Class to be paid and shall notify the
Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such selection not
later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three

- 44 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment; provided that each
repayment of Borrowings of a Class shall be applied to repay any outstanding ABR
Borrowings of such Class before any other Borrowings of such Class. If the
respective Borrower fails to make a timely selection of the Borrowing or
Borrowings to be repaid or prepaid, such payment shall be applied, first, to pay
any outstanding ABR Borrowings of the applicable Class and, second, to other
Borrowings of such Class in the order of the remaining duration of their
respective Interest Periods (the Borrowing with the shortest remaining Interest
Period to be repaid first). Each payment of a Syndicated Borrowing shall be
applied ratably to the Loans included in such Borrowing.
          (c) Maintenance of Records by Lenders. Each Revolving Credit Lender
and Incremental Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice
records evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting
from each Revolving Credit or Incremental Loan of any Series made by such
Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such
Lender from time to time hereunder.
          (d) Maintenance of Records by the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent shall maintain records in which it shall record (i) the
relevant Borrower, amount of each Revolving Credit Loan and Incremental Loan
made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and each Interest Period therefor,
(ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due
and payable from such Borrower to each Lender of such Class hereunder and
(iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for
account of such Lenders and each such Lender’s share thereof.
          (e) Effect of Entries. The entries made in the records maintained
pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence,
absent obvious error, of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded
therein; provided that the failure of any Revolving Credit Lender or Incremental
Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such records or any error therein
shall not in any manner affect the obligation of a Borrower to repay the
Revolving Credit Loans or Incremental Loans made to it in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement.
          (f) Promissory Notes. Any Revolving Credit Lender or Incremental
Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a
promissory note. In such event, each Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver
to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by
such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved
by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory
note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment
pursuant to Section 11.08) be represented by one or more promissory notes in
such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a
registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).
          SECTION 2.10. Prepayment of Loans.
          (a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrowers shall have the right at any
time and from time to time to prepay any Syndicated Loans or Swingline Loans in
whole or in part,

- 45 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

without premium or penalty, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph
(e) of this Section 2.10.
          (b) Mandatory Prepayments — Casualty Events and Asset Sales. The
Borrowers shall make prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans and Incremental
Loans hereunder as follows (it being understood that the Borrowers shall not be
required to provide cover for LC Exposure as a result of any such events):
     (i) Casualty Events. Upon the date 365 days following the receipt by a
Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of the proceeds of insurance,
condemnation award or other compensation in respect of any Casualty Event
affecting any property of such Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
(or upon such earlier date as such Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as
the case may be, shall have determined not to, directly or through one or more
of its Subsidiaries, repair or replace the property affected by such Casualty
Event or, directly or through one or more of its Subsidiaries, to apply the
proceeds of such Casualty Event to purchase other capital assets), such Borrower
shall prepay such Loans in an aggregate amount, if any, equal to 100% of the Net
Cash Proceeds of such Casualty Event not theretofore applied or committed to be
applied, directly or through one or more of its Subsidiaries, to the repair or
replacement of such property or purchase of other capital assets (it being
understood that if Net Cash Proceeds committed to be applied are not in fact
applied within twelve months of the respective Casualty Event, then such
Proceeds shall be applied to the prepayment of Loans as provided in this clause
(i) at the expiration of such twelve-month period), such prepayment to be
effected in each case in the manner and to the extent specified in clause
(iii) of this Section 2.10(b).
     (ii) Sale of Assets. Without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to
obtain the consent of the Required Lenders to any Disposition not otherwise
permitted hereunder, each Borrower agrees, on or prior to the occurrence of any
Disposition affecting property of such Borrower or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries, to deliver to the Administrative Agent a statement certified by a
Financial Officer, in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent, of the estimated amount of the Net Cash Proceeds of such
Disposition that will (on the date of such Disposition) be received by such
Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in cash and, unless such Borrower
or Restricted Subsidiary shall elect to reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds as
provided below, such Borrower or any other Borrower (at such Borrower’s option)
will prepay such Loans hereunder as follows:
     (x) upon the date of such Disposition, in an aggregate amount equal to 100%
of such estimated amount of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Disposition, to the
extent received by such Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in cash
on the date of such Disposition; and
     (y) thereafter, quarterly, on the date of the delivery by the Parent to the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 7.01 of the financial statements for
any quarterly fiscal period or fiscal year, to the extent such Borrower or any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall receive Net Cash Proceeds during the
quarterly fiscal

- 46 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

period ending on the date of such financial statements in cash under deferred
payment arrangements or Disposition Investments entered into or received in
connection with any Disposition, an amount equal to (A) 100% of the aggregate
amount of such Net Cash Proceeds minus (B) any transaction expenses associated
with Dispositions and not previously deducted in the determination of Net Cash
Proceeds plus (or minus, as the case may be) (C) any other adjustment received
or paid by such Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the
respective agreements giving rise to Dispositions and not previously taken into
account in the determination of the Net Cash Proceeds of Dispositions, provided
that, if prior to the date upon which such Borrower would otherwise be required
to make a prepayment under this clause (y) with respect to any quarterly fiscal
period, the aggregate amount of such Net Cash Proceeds (after giving effect to
the adjustments provided for in this clause (y)) shall exceed $25,000,000, then
such Borrower shall within three Business Days make a prepayment under this
clause (y) in an amount equal to such required prepayment.
Prepayments of Loans shall be effected in each case in the manner and to the
extent specified in clause (iii) of this Section 2.10(b).
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Borrower shall not be required to make a
prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.10(b)(ii) with respect to the Net Cash
Proceeds from any Disposition in the event that such Borrower advises the
Administrative Agent at the time a prepayment is required to be made under the
foregoing clauses (x) or (y) that it or such Restricted Subsidiary intends to
reinvest, directly or through one of more of its Subsidiaries, such Net Cash
Proceeds into assets pursuant to one or more Capital Expenditures or
acquisitions of assets permitted hereunder, so long as the Net Cash Proceeds
from any Disposition by such Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries are
in fact so reinvested within twelve months of such Disposition (it being
understood that, in the event more than one Disposition shall occur during any
twelve-month period, the Net Cash Proceeds received in connection with such
Dispositions shall be reinvested in the order in which such Dispositions shall
have occurred) and, accordingly, any such Net Cash Proceeds so held for more
than twelve months shall be forthwith applied to the prepayment of Loans as
provided in clause (iii) of this Section 2.10(b).
     (iii) Application. Upon the occurrence of any of the events described in
the above paragraphs of this Section 2.10(b), but subject to the last paragraph
of Section 11.05(a), the amount of the required prepayment shall be applied
first to the prepayment of any Swingline Loans and second to the prepayment of
any other Loans (including Incremental Loans), without reduction of the
Revolving Credit Commitments or any Incremental Loan Commitments.
          (c) Mandatory Prepayments — Outstandings Exceeding Commitments. The
Borrowers will prepay the Revolving Credit Loans (and/or provide cover for the
LC Exposure as specified in Section 2.05(k)) in the event that the aggregate
amount of the Revolving Credit Exposure shall at any time exceed the aggregate
amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments for any reason other than changes in
exchange rates, and will prepay the Incremental Loans of any Series in the event
that the aggregate amount of the Incremental Loan Exposure of such

- 47 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Series shall at any time exceed the aggregate amount of the Incremental Loan
Commitments of such Series for any such reason.
     (d) Mandatory Prepayments due to Changes in Exchange Rates.
     (i) Determination of Amount Outstanding. On each Monthly Date, on each
Revolving Discretionary Request Date (as defined below), on each date that a
Borrower shall request a Revolving Credit Borrowing or the issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit and, in addition, promptly upon the
receipt by the Administrative Agent of a Currency Valuation Notice (as defined
below), the Administrative Agent shall determine the aggregate Revolving Credit
Exposure. For the purpose of this determination, the outstanding face amount of
any Letter of Credit that is denominated in any Foreign Currency shall be deemed
to be the Dollar Equivalent of the amount in the Foreign Currency of such Letter
of Credit, determined as of such Monthly Date, Revolving Discretionary Request
Date, date of such proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing, issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension or, in the case of a Currency Valuation Notice received by
the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on a Business
Day, on such Business Day or, in the case of a Currency Valuation Notice
otherwise received, on the first Business Day after such Currency Valuation
Notice is received. Upon making such determination, the Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify the Revolving Credit Lenders and the Borrowers thereof.
     (ii) Prepayment and Cover. If, on the date of such determination (after
giving effect to any prior or substantially concurrent deposit made by the
respective Borrower, at its option, to the Letter of Credit Collateral Account)
the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the aggregate amount of the
Revolving Credit Commitments as then in effect (such excess, an “Excess”), the
Borrowers shall, if requested by the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of
Revolving Credit Exposure, by any Issuing Lender), within three Business Days
following the Borrowers’ receipt of such request:
     (A) if any Revolving Credit Loans are outstanding, prepay all such
Revolving Credit Loans or such portion thereof as is sufficient to eliminate the
Excess, and
     (B) if such prepayment is not sufficient to eliminate the Excess, provide
cover for LC Exposure pursuant to Section 2.05(k) in an amount sufficient to
eliminate the Excess.
For purposes hereof, “Currency Valuation Notice” means a notice given by the
Required Revolving Credit Lenders or any Issuing Lender to the Administrative
Agent stating that such notice is a “Currency Valuation Notice” and requesting
that the Administrative Agent determine the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure.
          Any prepayment of Loans constituting Revolving Credit Exposure
pursuant to this paragraph shall be applied, first, to Swingline Loans
outstanding and second, to Syndicated Revolving Credit Loans outstanding.

- 48 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

          If as at any Monthly Date (or on up to two other dates during any
calendar year requested by the Company; any such date being herein called a
“Revolving Discretionary Request Date”) it shall be determined that the
aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Exposure is less than the Revolving Credit
Commitments and any cover is at the time held by the Administrative Agent under
Section 2.05(k), the Administrative Agent shall, within three Business Days
after request therefor by the Company, remit such portion (or all) of such cover
as will not result in the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding the
Revolving Credit Commitments.
          (e) Notices, Etc. The Borrowers shall notify the Administrative Agent
(and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by
telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of
prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City
time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of
prepayment of a Syndicated ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York
City time, on the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a
Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of
prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the
prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be
prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed
calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that, if a notice of
prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of
the Commitments of a Class as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of
prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance
with Section 2.08. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the affected Lenders of the
contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount
that would be permitted in the case of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided
in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a
mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Syndicated Borrowing of a Class shall
be applied ratably to the Loans of such Class included in the prepaid Borrowing.
          (f) Prepayments Accompanied by Interest. Prepayments shall be
accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12.
          SECTION 2.11. Fees.
          (a) Commitment Fees. The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee (herein, the “Commitment
Fee”) on the average daily unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender during
the period from and including the Restatement Effective Date to but excluding
the date on which such Revolving Credit Commitment terminates. The Commitment
Fees shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for
Commitment Fees, in the case of the Revolving Credit Commitments, or the rate
per annum agreed to between the Company and the applicable Incremental Lenders,
in the case of Incremental Loan Commitments of any Series. Accrued Commitment
Fees on each Commitment shall be payable on each Quarterly Date and on the date
such Commitment terminates, commencing on the first such date to occur after the
Restatement Effective Date. All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis
of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed
(including the first day but excluding the last day). Solely for

- 49 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

purposes of calculating the Commitment Fees, Swingline Loans shall not be deemed
to be utilizations of the Revolving Credit Commitments.
          (b) Letter of Credit Fees. Each Borrower agrees to pay with respect to
Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder that are issued for its account the
following fees:
     (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit
Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of
Credit, which shall accrue (x) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable
Margin for Performance Letters of Credit on the average daily amount of such
Lender’s LC Exposure relating to Performance Letters of Credit (excluding any
portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) and (y) at a rate
per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for other Letters of Credit on the
average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure relating to other Letters of
Credit (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC
Disbursements), in each case during the period from and including the
Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such
Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment terminates and the date on which there
shall no longer be any Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder, and
     (ii) to the Issuing Lender of each Letter of Credit (x) a fronting fee,
which shall accrue at the rate per annum separately agreed upon between the
Company and such Issuing Lender on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure
of such Issuing Lender (determined for these purposes without giving effect to
the participations therein of the Revolving Credit Lenders pursuant to paragraph
(e) of Section 2.05, and excluding any portion thereof attributable to
unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the
Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination
of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the date on which there shall no longer
be any Letters of Credit of such Issuing Lender outstanding hereunder, and
(y) such Issuing Lender’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings
thereunder.
Accrued participation fees and fronting fees shall be payable in arrears on each
Quarterly Date and on the date the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate,
commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof, provided that
any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments
terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to an Issuing
Lender pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand.
All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a
year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed
(including the first day but excluding the last day).
          (c) Administrative Agency Fees. The Company agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at
the times separately agreed in writing between the Company and the
Administrative Agent.
          (d) Payment of Fees. All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the
dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (except
for fronting fees, which shall be paid directly to the respective Issuing
Lenders) for distribution to the Revolving Credit

- 50 -

Credit Agreement
Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any
circumstances, absent manifest error in the determination thereof.
          SECTION 2.12. Interest.
          (a) ABR Loans. Loans constituting each ABR Borrowing shall bear
interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the
Applicable Margin.
          (b) Eurodollar Loans. Loans constituting each Eurodollar Borrowing
shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the
related Interest Period for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.
          (c) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal
of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by a Borrower
hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration,
by mandatory prepayment or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest,
after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case
of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such
Loan as provided above or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate
applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.
          (d) Payment of Interest. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be
payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon
termination of the related Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued
pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in
the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of
a Syndicated ABR Loan prior to the Commitment Termination Date), accrued
interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date
of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any
Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, accrued
interest on such Borrowing shall be payable on the effective date of such
conversion.
          (e) Computation. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis
of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the
Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime
Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap
year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed
(including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate
Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent,
and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
          SECTION 2.13. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement
of the Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing of a Class:
     (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be
conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not
exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or
     (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Revolving Credit
Lenders (if such Borrowing is a Revolving Credit Borrowing) or the Required
Incremental Lenders of the relevant Series (if such Borrowing is an Incremental

-51-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Borrowing) that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining
their respective Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;
then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the affected Borrower
and the affected Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable
thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies such Borrower and such
Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist,
(i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing
to, or the continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be
ineffective and such Borrowing (unless prepaid) shall be continued as, or
converted to, an ABR Borrowing and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a
Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing; provided
that, in the case of clause (b) above: (x) at the request of the affected
Borrower, the Required Revolving Credit Lenders or the Required Incremental
Lenders of such Series, as the case may be, shall propose an increased
Applicable Margin for Borrowings of such Class that would result in the Adjusted
LIBO Rate plus the amount of such increase adequately and fairly reflecting the
cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their respective Loans included in
such Borrowing for such Interest Period and (y) if such Borrower accepts such
increase, then such increase shall become effective during such Interest Period
in lieu of the consequences described in the preceding clause (x) during such
Interest Period.
          SECTION 2.14. Increased Costs.
          (a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:
     (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or
similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or
credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in
the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or any Issuing Lender; or
     (ii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Lender or the London interbank
market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar 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 of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its
obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or such
Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit
or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such
Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the
relevant Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case
may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such
Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or
reduction suffered.
          (b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or any Issuing Lender
determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would
have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing
Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s
holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement

- 52 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

or the Loans made by, or participations in Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit
held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, to
a level deemed to be material by such Lender or such Issuing Lender below that
which such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing
Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking
into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s policies and the
policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect
to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such
Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s
or such Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
          (c) Certificates from Lenders. A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing
Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender
or such Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified
in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be promptly delivered to the
Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay or
cause to be paid to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the
amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt
thereof.
          (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or
any Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not
constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s right to demand
such compensation; provided that no Borrower shall be required to compensate a
Lender or an Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or
reductions incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender or
such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Company of the Change in
Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or
such Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further
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.
          (e) Taxes. This Section 2.14 shall not apply to increased costs with
respect to Taxes with respect to payments by or on account of any obligation of
any Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, which shall be governed
solely by Section 11.04.
          SECTION 2.15. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment
of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an
Interest Period therefor (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the
conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest
Period therefor, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any
Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto
(regardless of whether such notice is permitted to be revocable under
Section 2.10(e) and is revoked in accordance herewith), or (d) the assignment as
a result of a request by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.17 of any
Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor, then,
in any such event, the respective Borrowers shall compensate each Revolving
Credit Lender or Incremental Lender, as applicable, for the loss, cost and
expense attributable to such event.
          The loss to any Lender attributable to any such event shall be deemed
to include an amount determined by such Lender to be equal to the excess, if
any, of (i) the amount of

- 53 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

interest that such Lender would pay for a deposit equal to the principal amount
of such Loan for the period from the date of such payment, conversion, failure
or assignment to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan
(or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the duration of
the Interest Period that would have resulted from such borrowing, conversion or
continuation) if the interest rate payable on such deposit were equal to the
Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period, over (ii) the amount of interest
that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such
Lender were to invest such principal amount for such period at the interest rate
that would be bid by such Lender (or an affiliate of such Lender) for deposits
from other banks in the eurocurrency market at the commencement of such period.
          Payment under this Section shall be made upon request of a Lender
delivered not later than five Business Days following the payment, conversion,
or failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay that gives rise to a claim
under this Section accompanied by a certificate of such Lender setting forth the
amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this
Section, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The
respective Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such
certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.
          SECTION 2.16. Insufficient Funds; Ratable Treatment; Sharing of
Payments.
          (a) Application of Insufficient Payments. If at any time insufficient
funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all
amounts of principal, interest and fees in respect of Loans, Letters of Credit
or unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied
(i) first, to pay interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the
parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees
then due to such parties, and (ii) second, to pay principal and unreimbursed LC
Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in
accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then
due to such parties.
          (b) Ratable Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein:
(i) each Syndicated Borrowing of a Class shall be made from the Lenders of such
Class, each payment of commitment fees under Section 2.11 shall be made for
account of the Lenders of the applicable Class, and each termination or
reduction of the amount of the Commitments of a Class under Section 2.08 shall
be applied to the respective Commitments of the Lenders of such Class, pro rata
according to the amounts of their respective Commitments of such Class;
(ii) each Syndicated Borrowing of a Class shall be allocated pro rata among the
Lenders of such Class according to the amounts of their respective Commitments
of such Class (in the case of the making of Syndicated Loans) or their
respective Loans of such Class that are to be included in such Borrowing (in the
case of conversions and continuations of Loans); (iii) each payment or
prepayment of principal of Syndicated Loans of a Class by a Borrower shall be
made for account of the Lenders of such Class pro rata in accordance with the
respective unpaid principal amounts of the Syndicated Loans of such Class held
by them; and (iv) each payment of interest on Syndicated Loans of a Class by a
Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders of such Class pro rata in
accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans of such Class then due and
payable to the respective Lenders.

- 54 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

          (c) Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender of any Class shall,
by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment
in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Syndicated Loans, or
participations in LC Disbursements, of such Class resulting in such Lender
receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its
Syndicated Loans, and participations in LC Disbursements, and accrued interest
thereon of such Class then due than the proportion received by any other Lender
of such Class, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase
(for cash at face value) participations in the Syndicated Loans, and
participations in LC Disbursements of other Lenders of such Class to the extent
necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the
Lenders of such Class ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of
principal of and accrued interest on their respective Syndicated Loans, and
participations in LC Disbursements, of such Class; 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 any payment made
by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this
Agreement or 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 LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to a Borrower or
any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this
paragraph shall apply). Each Obligor 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 such Obligor rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such
participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Obligor
in the amount of such participation.
          (d) Presumptions of Payment. Unless the Administrative Agent shall
have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment or
prepayment is due to the Administrative Agent for account of any Lender
hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment or prepayment, the
Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment or
prepayment, as the case may be, on such date in accordance herewith and may, in
reliance upon such assumption and in its sole discretion, distribute to such
Lender the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such
payment or prepayment, then such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent
forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to
it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the
Federal Funds Effective Rate.
          (e) Certain Deductions by the Administrative Agent. If any Lender
shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to
Section 2.04(c), 2.05(e), 2.06(b), 2.16(d) or 11.03(c), then the Administrative
Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof),
apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for account of
such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all
such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.
          SECTION 2.17. Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests
compensation under Section 2.14, or if any Borrower is required to pay any
additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for account of any
Lender pursuant to Section 11.04, or if any

- 55 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender does not consent to a
proposed amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document requested by the Borrowers which has been approved by the Required
Lenders but which requires the consent of such Lender (or such Lender and other
Lenders) to become effective, then the Company may, at its sole expense (and
without any obligation on the Administrative Agent or any Lender to co-operate
or assist in any way in locating an assignee), 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
Section 11.08), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement
to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another
Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that
     (i) the Company shall have received the prior consent of the Administrative
Agent (and, if a Revolving Credit Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing
Lenders and the Swingline Lender), which consents shall not unreasonably be
withheld,
     (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the
outstanding principal of its Loans (and funded participations in LC
Disbursements and Swingline Loans), as applicable, accrued interest thereon,
accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee
(to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or
the Company (in the case of all other amounts) and
     (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for
compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to
Section 11.04, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation
or payments; provided, however, the assignor hereunder shall not be liable to
the Administrative Agent for any assignment fee provided in
Section 11.08(b)(ii)(C).
          In connection with any such replacement, if the replaced Lender does
not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment
and Assumption reflecting such replacement within five Business Days of the date
on which the replacement Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and
Assumption to the replaced Lender, then such replaced Lender shall be deemed to
have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption. A Lender shall not
be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a
result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the
Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
          SECTION 2.18. Defeasance of Letters of Credit. The Borrowers may, upon
not less than three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent
stating that it is exercising its rights under this Section 2.18 (which shall
promptly notify all of the Lenders), take the following actions (each of which
shall be effected concurrently):
     (a) terminate all of the Commitments in accordance with Section 2.08(b),
     (b) pay or prepay in accordance with Section 2.10(a) the principal of and
interest on all Loans and pay all LC Disbursements, fees and other amounts
outstanding hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and

- 56 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     (c) provide to each Issuing Lender either or both (or a combination of
both) of (i) cash collateral for the Borrowers’ reimbursement obligations for
each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender then outstanding in amount
equal to 101% of (and in the same currency as) the undrawn amount of such Letter
of Credit, under arrangements satisfactory to such Issuing Lender or (ii) a
letter of credit issued to such Issuing Lender covering the Borrowers’
reimbursement obligations for each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing
Lender then outstanding in amount equal to the sum of 101% of (and in the same
currency as) the undrawn amount of such Letter of Credit together with an
additional letter of credit issued to such Issuing Lender in an amount equal to
the letter of credit fees under Section 2.11(b) that will accrue (at the highest
Applicable Margin) for the period from the date of the issuance of such letter
of credit to the date of scheduled expiration of such Letter of Credit (taking
into account extensions), the form and issuer of each such letter of credit to
be satisfactory to such Issuing Lender.
Upon each of such actions being taken, (x) the obligations of the Revolving
Credit Lenders under Section 2.05(e) shall terminate and (y) the obligations of
the Borrowers under Section 2.11(a) and 2.11(b)(i) shall terminate.
ARTICLE III
DEFAULTING LENDERS
          Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if
any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall
apply on the date such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender and for so long as
such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
     (a) Commitment Fees pursuant to Section 2.11(a) shall cease to accrue on
the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender;
     (b) the Commitment, Revolving Credit Exposure and Incremental Loan Exposure
of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in any calculation of “Required
Lenders,” “Required Revolving Credit Lenders” or “Required Incremental Lenders”
for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders, the Required Revolving
Credit Lenders or the Required Incremental Lenders have taken or may take any
action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other
modification pursuant to Section 11.02); provided, that this clause (b) shall
not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver
or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender
affected or directly affected thereby;
     (c) if such Lender is a Revolving Credit Lender and any Swingline Exposure
or LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:
     (i) all or any part of the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of such
Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the Revolving Credit Lenders that
are not Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable
Percentages but only to the extent the sum of all such non-Defaulting Lenders’

- 57 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and
LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all such non-Defaulting Lenders’
Revolving Credit Commitments;
     (ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only
partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within three Business Days following
notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and
(y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of one or more of the Issuing
Lenders only the Borrowers’ obligations corresponding to such Defaulting
Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant
to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 2.05(k) for so long as such LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is
outstanding (or if shorter, for so long as such Defaulting Lender remains a
Defaulting Lender);
     (iii) if any Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting
Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrowers shall not be
required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(b);
     (iv) if the LC Exposure of Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to
clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant
to Section 2.11(a) and (b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such
non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; and
     (v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is
neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or
(ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing
Lender or any other Lender hereunder, all Letter of Credit fees payable under
Section 2.11(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be
payable to the respective Issuing Lenders until and to the extent that such LC
Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and
     (d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender
shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Lender shall be
required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Swingline
Lender or such Issuing Lender, as applicable, is reasonably satisfied that the
Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure, as
applicable, will be 100% covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the
Revolving Credit Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral
will be provided by the Borrowers in accordance with paragraph (c) of this
Article III, and participating interests in any newly made Swingline Loan or any
newly issued, amended or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among
non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with paragraph (b) of this
Article III (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).
          In the event that the Administrative Agent and the Company (and, in
the case of a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Credit Lender, the Swingline
Lender and the Issuing Lenders) each reasonably agrees that a Defaulting Lender
has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting
Lender (or if such Defaulting Lender has been

- 58 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

replaced pursuant to Section 2.17), then (i), as applicable, the Swingline
Exposure and LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the
inclusion of such Defaulting Lender’s (or replacement Lender’s) applicable
Commitment and on such date such Defaulting Lender (or replacement Lender) shall
purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline
Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for
such Defaulting Lender (or replacement Lender) to hold such Loans of the
applicable Class in accordance with its Applicable Percentage for such Class and
(ii) all cash collateral provided under paragraph (c) of this Article III with
respect to such Defaulting Lender shall be immediately released to the
Borrowers.
ARTICLE IV
GUARANTEE BY GUARANTORS
          SECTION 4.01. The Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and
severally guarantees to each Credit Party, each Eligible Hedging Counterparty
and each Eligible Cash Manager, and their respective successors and assigns, the
prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by
prepayment or otherwise) of the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor. Each
Guarantor hereby further agrees that if any other Obligor shall fail to pay in
full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by prepayment or
otherwise) any of such Guarantor’s Guaranteed Obligations, such Guarantor will
promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the
case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of such Guaranteed
Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at
extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of
such extension or renewal.
          For purposes hereof, it is understood that any Guaranteed Obligations
to a Person arising under a Hedging Agreement or constituting Cash Management
Obligations entered into at the time such Person (or an Affiliate thereof) is a
Lender shall nevertheless continue to constitute Guaranteed Obligations for
purposes hereof, notwithstanding that such Person (or its Affiliate) may have
assigned all of its Loans and other interests hereunder and, therefore, at the
time a claim is to be made in respect of such Guaranteed Obligations, such
Person (or its Affiliate) is no longer a Lender party hereto; provided that such
Person shall not be entitled to the benefits of this Section unless, at the time
it ceased to be a Lender, it shall have notified the Administrative Agent of the
existence of such Hedging Agreement or Cash Management Obligations, as the case
may be.
          SECTION 4.02. Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of each
Guarantor under Section 4.01 are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable
irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability
of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument
referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any
other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other
circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this
Section 4.02 that the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute,
unconditional and irrevocable under any and all circumstances. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or
more of the following

- 59 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantors hereunder which shall
remain absolute, unconditional and irrevocable as described above:
     (i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to such Guarantors,
the time for any performance of or compliance with any of its Guaranteed
Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be
waived;
     (ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions hereof or of the
other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or
therein shall be done or omitted;
     (iii) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be
accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified,
supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right hereunder or under the
other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or
therein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or
in part or otherwise dealt with;
     (iv) any law or regulation of any jurisdiction or any other event affecting
any term of a Guaranteed Obligation; or
     (v) any lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, the
Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender or Lenders as security
for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected.
          The Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand
of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the
Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender (or Affiliate thereof)
exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the respective Borrower
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument
referred to herein or therein, or against any other Person under any other
guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations.
          It is acknowledged and agreed that references in this Section 4.02 to
the obligations of the Guarantors under this Article IV being irrevocable are
subject to any and all provisions of the Loan Documents that expressly provide
for the release or termination of such obligations.
          SECTION 4.03. Reinstatement. The obligations of each Guarantor under
this Article IV shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for
any reason any payment by or on behalf of a Borrower in respect of its
Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder
of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in
bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and each of the Guarantors agrees
that it will indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and each
Lender (and each Affiliate thereof part to any Hedging Agreement) on demand for
all reasonable costs and expenses (including fees of counsel) incurred by the
Administrative Agent, any Lender (or Affiliate) or any Issuing Lender in
connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and
expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment

- 60 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any
bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.
          SECTION 4.04. Subrogation. Until the payment of all Guaranteed
Obligations, and the termination of all Commitments, each Guarantor hereby
waives all rights of subrogation or contribution, whether arising by contract or
operation of law (including, without limitation, any such right arising under
the Federal Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended) or otherwise by reason of any
payment by it pursuant to the provisions of this Article IV and further agrees
with each Borrower for the benefit of each of its creditors (including, without
limitation, each Issuing Lender, each Lender, each Affiliate thereof and the
Administrative Agent) that any such payment by it shall constitute a
contribution of capital by such Guarantor to such Borrower.
          SECTION 4.05. Remedies. Each Guarantor agrees that, as between such
Guarantor and the Lenders, the obligations of the respective Borrower hereunder
may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article IX or
Section 2.05(i), as applicable (and shall be deemed to have become automatically
due and payable in the circumstances provided in Article IX or Section 2.05(k),
as applicable) for purposes of Section 4.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction
or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from
becoming automatically due and payable) as against such Borrower and that, in
the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become
automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable
by such Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Guarantor for
purposes of Section 4.01.
          SECTION 4.06. Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Guarantor
hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article IV constitutes an
instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Issuing
Lender, any Lender (and any Affiliate thereof party to any Hedging Agreement) or
the Administrative Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by the
Guarantors in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to
bring motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213.
          SECTION 4.07. Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article IV
is a continuing guarantee, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations
whenever arising.
          SECTION 4.08. Rights of Contribution. The Guarantors (which, for
purposes of this Section 4.08 only shall be deemed to exclude the Parent, FWL
and Holdco) hereby agree, as between themselves, that if any Guarantor shall
become an Excess Funding Guarantor (as defined below) by reason of the payment
by such Guarantor of any Guaranteed Obligations, each other Guarantor shall, on
demand of such Excess Funding Guarantor (but subject to the next sentence), pay
to such Excess Funding Guarantor an amount equal to such Guarantor’s Pro Rata
Share (as defined below and determined, for this purpose, without reference to
the properties, debts and liabilities of such Excess Funding Guarantor) of the
Excess Payment (as defined below) in respect of such Guaranteed Obligations. The
payment obligation of a Guarantor to any Excess Funding Guarantor under this
Section shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior
payment in full of the obligations of such Guarantor under the other provisions
of this Article IV and such Excess Funding Guarantor shall not exercise any
right or

- 61 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

remedy with respect to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all
of such obligations.
          For purposes of this Section 4.08, (i) “Excess Funding Guarantor”
means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, a Guarantor that has paid an
amount in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii)
“Excess Payment” means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, the amount
paid by an Excess Funding Guarantor in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such
Guaranteed Obligations and (iii) “Pro Rata Share” means, for any Guarantor, the
ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (x) the amount by which the aggregate
present fair saleable value of all properties of such Guarantor (excluding any
Equity Interests in any other Guarantor) exceeds the amount of all the debts and
liabilities of such Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and
unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Guarantor
hereunder and any obligations of any other Guarantor that have been Guaranteed
by such Guarantor) to (y) the amount by which the aggregate fair saleable value
of all properties of all of the Guarantors exceeds the amount of all the debts
and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated
liabilities, but excluding the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents) of all of the Guarantors, determined (A) with respect
to any Guarantor that is a party hereto on the Restatement Effective Date, as of
the Restatement Effective Date and (B) with respect to any other Guarantor, as
of the date such Guarantor becomes a Guarantor hereunder.
          SECTION 4.09. Limitation on Guarantee Obligations.
          (a) General Limitation. In any action or proceeding involving any
state corporate law, or any state or Federal bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the
obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor or Borrower under Section 4.01 would
otherwise, taking into account the provisions of Section 4.08, be held or
determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims
of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under
Section 4.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary,
the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such
Subsidiary Guarantor or Borrower, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any
other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is
valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as
determined in such action or proceeding.
          (b) Limitation Applicable to Luxembourg Guarantors. Anything in this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the
maximum liability under Section 4.01 of any Subsidiary Guarantor organized under
the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (each a “Luxembourg Guarantor”) shall
be limited at any time to an amount not exceeding the maximum financial capacity
at such time of such Luxembourg Guarantor, such maximum financial capacity being
equal to 85% of the Net Assets of the Luxembourg Guarantor, where “Net Assets”
shall be deemed to be equal to such Luxembourg Guarantor’s shareholder’s equity
(including share capital, share premium, legal and statutory reserves, other
reserves, profits or losses carried forward, investment subsidies and regulated
provisions) (Capitaux Propres) as calculated on the basis of such Luxembourg
Guarantor’s most recent financial statements (Comptes Annuels), approved by such
Luxembourg Guarantor’s managers

or shareholders’ meeting in accordance with Luxembourg company law, certified by
the statutory auditors and available at the date of the relevant payment
obligation hereunder.
          SECTION 4.10. Parallel Debt.
          (a) Agreement to Create Parallel Debt. For purposes of (x) creating a
Lien in the Collateral in or subject to the laws of any jurisdiction (each being
herein called a “Relevant Jurisdiction”), such as Luxembourg, that only permits
Liens to be granted to the Administrative Agent to secure obligations directly
held by the Administrative Agent and (y) ensuring the continued validity of any
such Lien, the Administrative Agent and each of the Obligors that is either
organized in a Relevant Jurisdiction or that is granting Liens on the Equity
Interests of a Restricted Subsidiary that is organized in a Relevant
Jurisdiction (herein a “Relevant Obligor”), and each Lender (on behalf of
itself, each of the Hedging Counterparties and each of the Lender Affiliates),
agrees notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or
any other Loan Document or instrument as follows.
          (b) Definitions. For the purposes of this Section:
          “Hedging Counterparty” means any Eligible Hedging Counterparty that
may at any time be a creditor with respect of any Guaranteed Obligation.
          “Lender Affiliate” means any affiliate of a Lender that may at any
time be a creditor with respect of any Guaranteed Obligation.
          “Principal Obligation” means any obligation to pay an amount to the
Lenders, Hedging Counterparties or Lender Affiliates, or any one or more of
them, whether present or future under or in connection with any Loan Document,
Hedging Agreement or other instrument referred to in the definition of
Guaranteed Obligations.
          “Parallel Debt” has the meaning assigned to such term in paragraph
(c) below.
          (c) Creation of Parallel Debt. Each of the Relevant Obligors hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay to the Administrative Agent an
amount equal to the aggregate amount payable by such Relevant Obligor in respect
of its Principal Obligations as they may exist from time to time. The payment
undertaking of each Relevant Obligor to the Administrative Agent under this
paragraph (c) is hereinafter to be referred to as a “Parallel Debt”.
          (d) Due and Payable. Each Parallel Debt of a Relevant Obligor will
become due and payable as and when one or more of the Principal Obligations of
such Relevant Obligor become due and payable. Each Parallel Debt will be payable
in the Currency or Currencies of the relevant Principal Obligations.

- 63 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

          (e) Separate and Independent Undertaking, Obligation and Claim. Each
of the parties to this Agreement (including but not limited to each Lender on
behalf of itself, each of the Hedging Counterparties and each of the Lender
Affiliates) hereby acknowledges that:
     (i) each Parallel Debt constitutes an undertaking, obligation and liability
of the Relevant Obligor to the Administrative Agent which is separate and
independent from, and without prejudice to, the Principal Obligations; and
     (ii) each Parallel Debt represents the Administrative Agent’s own separate
and independent claim to receive payment of such Parallel Debt from the Relevant
Obligor,
it being understood, in each case, that pursuant to paragraph (c) above the
amount which may become payable by a Relevant Obligor as its Parallel Debt shall
never exceed the total of the amounts which are payable under the Principal
Obligations of such Relevant Obligor.
          (f) Received Parallel Debt Amounts. Upon receipt by the Administrative
Agent of any amount in payment of the Parallel Debt of a Relevant Obligor
(“Received Amount”), the Principal Obligations of such Relevant Obligor to the
relevant Lender, Hedging Counterparty or Lender Aaffiliate shall be reduced by
amounts totaling an amount (“Deductible Amount”) equal to the Received Amount in
the same manner as if the Deductible Amount were received as a payment of the
Principal Obligations on the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent of the
Received Amount. To the extent the Administrative Agent receives any amount in
payment of the Parallel Debt of a Relevant Obligor, the Administrative Agent
shall distribute such amount among the Lenders, Hedging Counterparties and
Lender Affiliates who are creditors of the Principal Obligations of such
Relevant Obligor in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents.
          (g) Role of Administrative Agent. For purposes of this Section, the
Administrative Agent acts in its own name and not as trustee or agent of any of
the Lenders, the Hedging Counterparties or the Lender Affiliates and its claims
in respect of the Parallel Debt shall not be held in trust. The Liens granted by
the Relevant Obligors to the Administrative Agent under the Security Documents
to secure the obligations under the Parallel Debt is granted to the
Administrative Agent in its capacity as a direct creditor in respect of the
Parallel Debt, and not as a trustee or agent for the Lenders, the Hedging
Counterparties or the Lender Affiliates. Nothing in this Section shall in any
way limit the right of the Administrative Agent to act in protection or
preservation of, the rights under, or to enforce any Security Document as
contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
ARTICLE V
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
          Each Obligor represents and warrants to the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent, as to itself and each of its Subsidiaries (or, as
applicable, each of its Restricted Subsidiaries), that:
          SECTION 5.01. Organization; Powers. Each Obligor and each of its
Restricted Subsidiaries is duly organized, incorporated or formed, validly
existing and in good standing (or

- 64 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

its equivalent, if applicable) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
organization, except in each case (other than in the case of the existence of
each Obligor and each of its Significant Subsidiaries) where the failure to do
so (individually or in the aggregate) would not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. Each Obligor and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries
has all requisite power and authority under its organizational or constitutional
documents to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where the
failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in,
and is in good standing (or its equivalent, if applicable) in, every
jurisdiction where such qualification is required.
          SECTION 5.02. Authorization; Enforceability. The Transactions are
within the corporate or other power of each Obligor and have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate or other action (including, if required,
equityholder action) on the part of such Obligor. This Agreement has been duly
executed and delivered by each Obligor and constitutes a legal, valid and
binding obligation of such Obligor, enforceable in accordance with its terms,
subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general
principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity
or at law.
          SECTION 5.03. Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The Transactions
(a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or
any other action by, any Governmental Authority or any other Person (other than
the filing or recording of the Liens to be created pursuant to the Security
Documents), (b) will not violate any applicable law, policy or regulation or the
charter, by-laws or other organizational or constitutional documents of any
Obligor or any order of any Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate or
result in a default in any material respect under any indenture, agreement or
other instrument binding upon any Obligor, or any of its assets, or give rise to
a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by any Obligor, and
(d) except for the Liens created by the Security Documents, will not result in
the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of the Obligors.
          SECTION 5.04. Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change. The
Company has heretofore delivered to the Lenders the following financial
statements:
     (i) the audited consolidated balance sheet, statements of operations,
changes in equity and cash flows of the Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries
as of and for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2009, reported on by
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent public accountants; and
     (ii) the Interim Financial Statements.
          Such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects,
the respective consolidated financial condition of the respective entities as at
said respective dates and the consolidated results of their operations for the
fiscal periods ended on said respective dates, all in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles and practices applied on a consistent basis,
subject, in the case of unaudited financial statements, to the absence of
footnotes and year-end audit adjustments. None of said entities had on the date
of said annual financial statements any material contingent liabilities,
liabilities for taxes, unusual forward or long-term

- 65 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

commitments or unrealized or anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments
that are required by GAAP to be disclosed in such financial statements or the
footnotes thereto that are not disclosed therein. Since December 30, 2009, there
has been no material adverse change (or any event, development or circumstance
that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result
in a material adverse change) in the business, assets, operations or condition,
financial or otherwise, of the Parent and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.
          SECTION 5.05. Properties.
          (a) Properties Generally. Each Obligor and each of its Restricted
Subsidiaries has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its real
and personal property material to its business, except for (i) defects in title
that do not interfere in any material respect with its ability to conduct its
business as currently conducted or to utilize such properties for their intended
purposes and (ii) Liens permitted under Section 8.02.
          (b) Intellectual Property. Each Obligor and each of its Restricted
Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames,
copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material to its business,
and the use thereof by such Obligor and its Restricted Subsidiaries does not
infringe upon the rights of any other Person, except for any such infringements
that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect.
          SECTION 5.06. Litigation and Environmental Matters.
          (a) Litigation. There are no actions, suits or proceedings by or
before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the
knowledge of any of the Obligors, threatened against or affecting the Obligors
or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries that would reasonably be expected,
individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect (other
than the Disclosed Matters).
          (b) Environmental Matters. Except for the Disclosed Matters and except
with respect to any other matters that, individually or in the aggregate, would
not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, no (i) Group
Member has failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or
comply with any permit, license or other approval required under any
Environmental Law, (ii) Group Member has become subject to any Environmental
Liability or (iii) Group Member has received notice of any claim with respect to
any Environmental Liability or any inquiry, allegation, notice or other
communication from any Governmental Authority concerning its compliance with any
Environmental Law.
          (c) No Default. No Default has occurred and is continuing.
          SECTION 5.07. Compliance with Laws and Agreements. Each Obligor and
each of its Restricted Subsidiaries is in compliance with all laws (other than,
subject to Section 5.06, Environmental Matters), regulations, policies and
orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property and all
indentures, agreements and other instruments binding upon it or its property,
except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

- 66 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

          SECTION 5.08. Investment Company Status. No Obligor nor any of their
respective subsidiaries is an “investment company” as defined in, or subject to
regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
          SECTION 5.09. Taxes. Each of the Obligors and their respective
Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be filed all material Tax returns and
reports required to have been filed and has paid or caused to be paid all
material Taxes required to have been paid by it, except (a) Taxes that are being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which such Obligor or
Subsidiary has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto in
accordance with GAAP or (b) to the extent that the failure to do so would not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
          SECTION 5.10. ERISA. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably
expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for
which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect. There has been no failure to make any
required contribution to any Plan that has resulted in a Lien arising under
Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code.
          SECTION 5.11. Disclosure. The information, reports, financial
statements, exhibits and schedules furnished in writing by or on behalf of the
Obligors to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the

newly-formed or acquired Restricted Subsidiary (other than an Immaterial
Subsidiary) to

- 76 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     (i) become a “Guarantor” hereunder, and under the applicable Security
Documents pursuant to a Joinder Agreement or other instrument in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;
     (ii) cause such newly-formed or acquired Restricted Subsidiary to take such
action as shall be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to create

Subsidiary, and

the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may in its discretion
waive the requirements of this paragraph (a) with respect to any Restricted
Subsidiary, or any property of any Restricted Subsidiary, to the extent that it
determines (in consultation with the Company) that the costs of obtaining a Lien
on such property are excessive in relation to the value of the security to be
afforded thereby.
          (b) Additional Equity Interests. Subject to Section 11.02(d)(ii), in
the event that any additional Equity Interests not constituting Excluded Assets
shall be issued by any Restricted Subsidiary to any Obligor, such Obligor shall,

pursuant to the Security Agreement or other Security Document (or, subject to
the following proviso, in the case of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a
Foreign Subsidiary, pursuant to a pledge agreement, security agreement or other
instrument under the law applicable to such Restricted Subsidiary creating a
lien on) any certificates evidencing such Equity Interest, accompanied by
undated stock or other powers executed in blank and take such other action as
the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request to perfect the security
interest created therein pursuant to the Security Documents, provided that, in
the case of the Equity Interest of any Foreign Subsidiary, the Administrative
Agent may in its discretion waive the requirements of this paragraph (b) with
respect to obtaining a foreign law pledge agreement, security agreement or other
instrument to the extent that it determines (in consultation with the Company)
that the costs of obtaining a Lien on such Equity Interests are excessive in
relation to the value of the security to be afforded thereby.
          (c) Immaterial Subsidiaries. Subject to Section 11.02(d)(ii), if,
based upon the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 7.01(a) or
7.01(b) for any fiscal quarter, either the aggregate assets or aggregate revenue
of all Subsidiaries designated as “Immaterial Subsidiaries” hereunder in effect
at such time shall exceed $10,000,000 as at the end of and for the most-recently
ended four-quarter period, the Company shall, within five Business Days thereof
(or such later date as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its
reasonable discretion), (i) rescind the designation as “Immaterial Subsidiaries”
of one or more of such Subsidiaries (and of any Subsidiaries thereof) so that,
after giving effect thereto, neither the aggregate assets nor aggregate revenue
of all Subsidiaries so designated (and which designations have not been
rescinded) shall exceed $10,000,000 and (ii) within 60 days thereafter (or such

- 77 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

later date as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable
discretion), cause the actions and the documents and other instruments referred
to in paragraphs (a) and (b) above to be taken or delivered by the applicable
Obligors and such Restricted Subsidiaries, or in respect of the Equity Interests
of such Restricted Subsidiaries, as if such Subsidiaries were newly-acquired
Restricted Subsidiaries.
          (d) Real Property. Subject to Section 11.02(d)(ii), if after the
Restatement Effective Date any Obligor shall acquire any real property interest
not constituting Excluded Assets (or shall make any improvements to any real
property interest resulting in its no longer constituting Excluded Assets), then
(subject, (i) in the case of any such interest that is a leasehold interest, to

the execution and recording of any required memorandum of lease, and (ii) in the
case of any real property or leasehold interest that is subject to a Lien
permitted under Section 8.02 or, in the case of a leasehold interest where the
underlying fee is subject to a Lien, to the delivery by the holder of such Lien
of any necessary consent) it will or, as applicable, will cause the respective
Obligor holding such real property interest, to execute and deliver in favor of
the Administrative Agent a mortgage, deed of trust or similar instrument (as
appropriate for the jurisdiction in which such respective real property is
situated), all as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, pursuant to
which such Obligor will create a Lien upon such real property interest (and
improvements) in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the
Lenders (and any Eligible Hedging Counterparty and any Eligible Cash Manager) as
collateral security for the Secured Obligations under and as defined in the
Security Agreement, and will deliver (or, or in case of landlord or lienholder
consents, will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the relevant
landlord(s) or lienholder(s) to deliver) such opinions of counsel, landlords
consents, memoranda of lease, lienholder consents and title insurance policies
as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request in connection therewith,
provided that the Administrative Agent in its discretion may waive the
requirements of this paragraph (d) with respect to any real property or
leasehold interest to the extent that it determines (in consultation with the
Company) that the costs of obtaining a Lien on such real property or leasehold
interest are excessive in relation to the value of the security to be afforded
thereby.
          (e) Further Assurances. Subject to Section 11.02(d)(ii), the Parent
will, and will cause each Obligor to, take such action from time to time as
shall reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent to effectuate the

asset value of the Parent and its Subsidiaries (herein each a “Material Foreign
Subsidiary”), (ii) determinations of Material Foreign Subsidiaries shall be made
on the Restatement Effective Date and thereafter at the time of each delivery of
quarterly compliance certificates pursuant to Section 7.02(c), and (iii) to the
extent required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, any legal opinions for

applicable period), provided that, unless such Acquisition is made solely with

redemption, retirement, acquisition, cancellation or termination of any equity
interest in any Subsidiary of the Company so long as either (i) the portion of
such dividends, distributions or other payments that are paid to the Company and
its Restricted Subsidiaries are not less than the portion thereof that such
Persons would be entitled to received if such dividends, distributions and other
payments were declared and paid ratably to the shareholders, partners and other
equityholders of such Subsidiary or (ii) such payment is being made in respect
of the purchase by such Restricted Subsidiary from one or more of its
equityholders of minority interests held by such equityholders in such
Restricted Subsidiary, so long as such purchase is an Investment permitted under

transaction directly or indirectly with or for the benefit of an Affiliate
(including, without limitation, guarantees and assumptions of obligations of an
Affiliate) unless the consideration received (or paid) by the Parent or the
relevant Subsidiary, as the case may be, is not less than (if received) or more
than (if paid) the consideration that would be received or paid, as the case may
be, in a comparable transaction effected on an arms’ length basis with a Person
that is not an Affiliate, provided that (i) any Affiliate who is an individual
may serve as a director, officer, employee or consultant of the Parent or any of

or aggregate amount paid by the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary in respect
of such Guarantee is permitted under Section 8.05 when provided or paid and
(iv) the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries may enter into any transaction
with an Affiliate involving consideration having an aggregate value not
exceeding $1,000,000.
          SECTION 8.08. Restrictive Agreements. The Parent will not, and will
not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter
into, incur or permit to exist any agreement that prohibits, restricts or
imposes any condition upon (a) the ability of any Obligor to create, incur or
permit to exist any Lien upon any of its property or assets, or (b) the ability
of any Restricted Subsidiary to pay dividends or other distributions with
respect to any of its Equity Interests or to make or repay loans or advances to
the Parent or any other Restricted Subsidiary or to guarantee Indebtedness of
the Parent or any other Restricted Subsidiary; provided that
     (i) the foregoing shall not apply to restrictions and conditions imposed by
law (or imposed by agreement reflecting such law so long as such agreement is no
more restrictive than the restrictions and conditions imposed by law) or by this
Agreement,
     (ii) the foregoing shall not apply to restrictions and conditions existing
on the date hereof identified on Schedule 8.08 and any amendment, modification,
extension, renewal or replacement thereof on terms that, taken as a whole, are
not materially more adverse to the interests of the Lenders than such
restrictions and conditions existing on the date hereof,
     (iii) the foregoing shall not apply to restrictions and conditions
contained in agreements relating to the sale of a Subsidiary pending such sale,
provided such restrictions and conditions apply only to the Subsidiary that is
to be sold and such sale is permitted hereunder,
     (iv) the foregoing shall not apply to restrictions or conditions imposed by
any agreement relating to any Indebtedness or other obligation not prohibited by
this Agreement if such restrictions or conditions consist of (x) requirements to
maintain a borrowing base in respect of such Indebtedness or other obligation,
(y) the grant of, or promise to grant, Liens permitted hereunder as collateral
security for such Indebtedness

of Capital Expenditures by the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries to exceed
$100,000,000 during any single fiscal year, provided that (i) if the aggregate
amount of Capital Expenditures for any fiscal year shall be less than
$100,000,000 then such shortfall shall be added to the amount of Capital
Expenditures permitted for the immediately succeeding (but not any other) fiscal
year and, for purposes hereof, the amount of Capital Expenditures made during
any fiscal year shall be deemed to have been made first from the $100,000,000
expressly permitted amount for such fiscal year and last from the amount of any
carryover from the previous fiscal year and (ii) for any fiscal year (other than
the fiscal year in which the Commitment Termination Date falls), the amount of
any Capital Expenditures permitted in such fiscal year (including as a result of
any carryover permitted by clause (i) above) may be increased by an aggregate
amount not to exceed $20,000,000 (in which case the amount of such increase
shall reduce, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the amount of Capital Expenditures
that would have been permitted to be incurred in the immediately succeeding
fiscal year).
          SECTION 8.10. Lines of Business. Neither the Parent nor any of its
Subsidiaries shall engage to any substantial extent in any line or lines of

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to a Borrower
described in clause (h) or (i) of this Article), and at any time thereafter
during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the
request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Company, take either or
both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate the
Commitments, and thereupon the Commitments shall terminate immediately, and (ii)
declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part,
in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter

ARTICLE X
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
          Each of the Lenders and each of the Issuing Lenders hereby irrevocably
appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent 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 of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto.
          BNP Paribas shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a
Lender hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though BNP
Paribas were not the Administrative Agent, and BNP Paribas and its Affiliates
may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of
business with any Obligor or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate of any thereof as
if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.
          The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations
except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent
shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of
whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent
shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any
discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly
contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that the
Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the
Required Lenders, and (c) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other
Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose,
and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to
any Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries that is communicated to or
obtained by BNP Paribas or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The
Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it
with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or, if provided
herein, with the consent or at the request of the Required Revolving Credit
Lenders or Required Incremental Lenders of any Class, or in the absence of its
own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall not
be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice
thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by a Borrower or Lender, and 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 the other Loan Documents, (ii) the contents of
any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or under any of
the other Loan Documents or in connection herewith of therewith, (iii) the
performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or
conditions set forth herein or in any other Loan Document, (iv) the validity,
enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, the other Loan
Documents or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the
satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article VI or elsewhere herein, other
than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the
Administrative Agent.
          The Administrative Agent shall not, except to the extent expressly
instructed by the Required Lenders with respect to collateral security under the
Security Documents, be

- 93 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings
hereunder or under any other Loan Document.
          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 believed by it to be genuine
and to have been signed or sent 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 be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for
relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who
may be counsel for a 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.
          The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties, and
exercise its rights and powers, by or through any one or more sub-agents
appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such
sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers through its Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding
paragraphs 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 its activities
in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein
as well as activities as the Administrative Agent.
          The Administrative Agent may resign at any time upon 15 days notice to
the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Company. Upon any such resignation, the
Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Company (not to
be unreasonably withheld), to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no
successor shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment
within 15 days after such retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its
resignation, then such retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the
Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which
shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any
such bank, provided that if no such bank is willing to accept such appointment,
the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon
become effective (and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from
its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) and the
Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent
hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor
Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative
Agent, by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with
all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative
Agent (and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties
and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents). The fees payable
by the Company to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those
payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such
successor. After an Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions
of this Article and Section 11.03 shall continue in effect for its benefit in
respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as
Administrative Agent.
          Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any other Lender
and based on such documents

- 94 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it
will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any
Issuing Lender or any other Lender 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 and
the other Loan Documents, any related agreement or any document furnished
hereunder or thereunder.
          The institutions listed on the cover page of this Agreement as Sole
Bookrunner, Sole Lead Arranger and Syndication Agents shall have no rights,
obligations or liabilities under the Loan Documents in those capacities.
ARTICLE XI
MISCELLANEOUS
          SECTION 11.01. Notices.

Agent and the Company may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other
communications hereunder to the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers, as the
case may be, by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it;
provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices

- 95 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

          (c) Changes to Notice Information. Any party hereto may change its
address or telecopy number for notices and other communications hereunder by
notice to the other parties hereto. All notices and other communications given
to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be
deemed to have been given on the date of receipt.
          SECTION 11.02. Waivers; Amendments.
          (a) Waivers. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any
Issuing Lender or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce
such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders hereunder are
cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would
otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any
departure by any Obligor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the
same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 11.02, and then such
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a
waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any
Lender or any Issuing Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at
the time.
          (b) Amendments. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be
waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in
writing entered into by the Company and the Required Lenders or by the Company
and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided
that no such agreement shall:
     (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the consent of such
Lender;
     (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce
the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the
consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;
     (iii) amend Article III without the consent of the Administrative Agent,
the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Lender and the Required Lenders;
     (iv) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any
Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder,
or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the
scheduled date of expiration or reduction of any Commitment, or postpone the
ultimate expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond the Commitment
Termination Date, without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;
     (v) change paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of Section 2.16 in a manner that would
alter the pro rata sharing of payments or prepayments required thereby, without
in each case the consent of each Lender affected thereby;

- 96 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     (vi) change any of the provisions of this Section 11.02 or the percentage
in the definition of “Required Lenders” without the consent of each Lender or
any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders
required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any
determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of
each affected Lender; or
     (vii) except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, release a
Significant Subsidiary from its obligations (if any) under Article IV without
the consent of each Lender, except in connection with the disposition of all of
the Equity Interests in such Significant Subsidiary to a Person that is not an
Affiliate in a transaction permitted hereunder or as to which the Required
Lenders have consented (and, in connection with any such disposition, the
Administrative Agent is hereby authorized by all of the Lenders and hereby
agrees to execute and deliver, at the request and expense of the Company, any
such instruments of release with respect to such Significant Subsidiary as the
Company shall reasonably request);
provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect
the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender hereunder
without the prior consent of the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender, as
the case may be.
          For purposes of this Section, the “scheduled date of payment” of any
amount shall refer to the date of payment of such amount specified in this
Agreement, and shall not refer to a date or other event specified for the
mandatory or optional prepayment of such amount. In addition, whenever a waiver,
amendment or modification requires the consent of a Lender “directly affected”
thereby, such waiver, amendment or modification shall, upon consent of such
Lender, become effective as to such Lender whether or not it becomes effective
as to any other Lender, so long as the Required Lenders consent to such waiver,
amendment or modification as provided above.
          (c) Amendments to Security Documents. No Security Document nor any
provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified, nor may the Liens thereof
be spread to secure any additional obligations (other than any increase
contemplated in Section 2.01(b) or 2.08(e)) or obligations with respect to any
Liens on the Collateral granted to any Person pursuant to Section 8.02(n))
except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by a
Borrower and by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required
Lenders; provided that, (i) without the written consent of each Lender, no such
agreement shall release all or substantially all of the Obligors from their
respective obligations under all or substantially all of the Security Documents
and (ii) without the written consent of each Lender, no such agreement shall
release all or substantially all of the collateral security or otherwise
terminate all or substantially all of the Liens under all or substantially all
of the Security Documents, alter the relative priorities of the obligations
entitled to the benefit of the Liens created under the Security Documents
(except in connection with securing additional obligations equally and ratably
with the Loans and other obligations hereunder or obligations with respect to
any Liens on the Collateral granted to any Person pursuant to Section 8.02(n))
with respect to all or substantially all of the collateral security provided
thereby, except that no such consent shall be required to release any Lien or to
amend any local law Security Documents covering property that is the subject of
either a disposition of property permitted hereunder or a disposition to which
the

- 97 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Required Lenders have consented (and, in connection with any such permitted
disposition, the Administrative Agent hereby agrees to execute and deliver, at
the request and expense of the Company, any such instruments of release or
amendment with respect to such property as shall be reasonably requested by the
Company).
          (d) Release. At such time as (i) the Commitments have expired or been
terminated and the principal of and interest on each Loan and all fees payable
hereunder shall have been paid in full and all Letters of Credit shall have
expired or terminated or shall have been Defeased and all LC Disbursements
outstanding at such time shall have been reimbursed, and the other Obligations
under the Loan Documents (other than (x) obligations under Sections 2.14, 2.15,
11.03 and 11.04 and Article X that are not then due and payable and (y) for the
avoidance of doubt obligations under or in respect of Hedging Agreements and
Cash Management Obligations) shall have been paid in full in cash or (ii) the
Administrative Agent shall have received evidence that both S&P and Moody’s have
issued Ratings of at least BBB— and at least Baa3, respectively, in either such
case referred to in the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), all Liens created by the
Security Documents and the Guarantees of the Obligors hereunder shall be
automatically released and terminated. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall, if so requested by any Obligor at or
after such release and termination, execute, deliver and (if necessary)
acknowledge such termination statements or releases as may be necessary or
reasonably appropriate to confirm, assure or give notice of such termination and
take such actions as may be necessary to redeliver or release all Collateral
within its control, in each case at the expense of such Obligor. Each Lender
hereby acknowledges, on behalf of itself, any of its Affiliates and each
Eligible Hedging Counterparty and Eligible Cash Manager, that the Administrative
Agent shall be authorized to effect the releases described in this paragraph
(d) notwithstanding that the obligations owing to such Lender or Eligible
Hedging Counterparty under Hedging Agreements to which they are party, or the
Cash Management Obligations owing to such Eligible Cash Manager, as the case may
be, shall not have been paid or terminated.
          (e) Permitted Dispositions. Upon any sale of Collateral permitted
hereby, the Liens of the Security Documents therein shall be automatically
released. In that connection, the Administrative Agent shall, if so requested by
such Obligor at or after such sale, execute, deliver and (if necessary)
acknowledge such termination statements or releases as may be necessary or
reasonably appropriate to confirm, assure or give notice of such release, in
each case at the expense of such Obligor.
          (f) Release of Foreign Subsidiary. At such time as any Foreign
Subsidiary of an Obligor is no longer a direct subsidiary of any Obligor as a
result of any transaction permitted by this Agreement, the Administrative Agent
agrees, at the expense and request of the Company, to release and terminate
automatically and irrevocably (i) all Liens granted by such Foreign Subsidiary
and (ii) all Guaranteed Obligations of such Foreign Subsidiary as a Guarantor.
In that connection, the Administrative Agent shall, if so requested by such
Obligor at or after such transaction, execute, deliver and (if necessary)
acknowledge such termination statements or releases as may be necessary or
reasonably appropriate to confirm, assure or give notice of such release, in
each case at the expense of such Obligor.

          (g) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if the
Administrative Agent and the Company shall have jointly identified (each in its
sole discretion) an obvious error or omission of a technical or immaterial
nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the
Administrative Agent and the applicable Obligors shall be permitted to amend
such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further
action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document if the same is not
objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five Business Days
following the notification of such amendment by the Administrative Agent to the
Lenders.
          SECTION 11.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.
          (a) Expenses. The Obligors jointly and severally agree to pay, or
reimburse the Administrative Agent or Lenders for paying, (i) all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates,
including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Special Counsel, in
connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein,
the preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any
amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof
(whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be
consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Issuing
Lender in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any
Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder, (iii) all out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender,
including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for such

enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and

connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including
in connection with any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect
thereof, and (iv) all transfer, stamp, documentary or other similar taxes,
assessments or charges levied by any governmental or revenue authority in
respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other
document referred to herein or therein and all costs, expenses, taxes,

registration, recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by
any Security Document or any other document referred to therein.
          (b) Indemnification by Obligors. The Obligors jointly and severally
agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and each
Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person
being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from,
any and all losses (other than loss of profit), claims, damages, liabilities and
related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel
for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out
of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated
hereby, the performance by the parties hereto and thereto of their respective
obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or
any other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter
of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an
Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the
documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with
the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or
release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or

- 99 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

operated by any Obligor or any of their subsidiaries, or any Environmental
Liability related in any way to any Obligor or any of their 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 and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided
that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent
that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable
judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
such Indemnitee.
          (c) Indemnification by Lenders. To the extent that the Obligors fail
to pay any amount required to be paid by them to the Administrative Agent under
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the
time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of
such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss,
claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by
or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such.
          To the extent that the Obligors fail to pay any amount required to be
paid by them to an Issuing Lender of any Class under paragraph (a) or (b) of
this Section 11.03, each Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees to pay to such
Issuing Lender such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time
that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such
unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss,
claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by
or asserted against such Issuing Lender in its capacity as such.
          (d) Waiver of Indirect or Consequential Damages, Etc. To the extent
permitted by applicable law, none of the Obligors shall assert, and each Obligor
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, the other Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated
hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of
the proceeds thereof.
          (e) Payment upon Demand. All amounts due under this Section 11.03
shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.
          SECTION 11.04. Taxes.
          (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments or prepayments by or
on account of any obligation of any Obligor hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Obligor or the
Administrative Agent shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes from any such payments or prepayments, then (i) the sum payable shall be
increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including
deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the
Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Lender (as the case may be) receives an
amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made,
(ii) such Obligor shall make such deductions and

- 100 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(iii) such Obligor shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
          (b) Payment of Other Taxes. In addition, each Obligor shall pay any
Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable
law.
          (c) Indemnification by Obligors. Each Obligor shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Lender for, and within 20
Business Days after written demand therefor, pay the full amount of any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section)
paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the
case may be, with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of
such Obligor hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including any interest
or penalties 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 Obligor by a Lender or such Issuing Lender, or by the
Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or such Issuing
Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
          (d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Obligor to a Governmental Authority,
such Obligor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a
certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing
such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of
such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
          (e) Foreign Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an
exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction
in which an Obligor is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a
party, with respect to payments and prepayments under this Agreement shall
deliver to such Obligor (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time
or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Obligor,
such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law
(including W-8BEN, W-8ECI, W-8EXP and W-8IMY) as will permit such payments and
prepayments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.
          In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Company or the
Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by
applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative
Agent as will enable the Company or the Administrative Agent to determine
whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information
reporting requirements.
          (f) Internal Revenue Service Forms. The Administrative Agent shall
deliver to the Company, on or before the Restatement Effective Date, two duly
completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY certifying that it is a
“U.S. branch” and that the payments it receives for the account of others are
not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business in the
United States of America and that it is using such form as evidence of its
agreement with the Company to be treated as a United States person with respect
to such payments (and the Company and the Administrative Agent agree to so treat
the Administrative

- 101 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Agent as a United States person with respect to such payments), with the effect
that the Obligors can make payments to the Administrative Agent without
deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States of America.
          (g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent, any
Lender or an Issuing Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has
received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has
been indemnified by any Obligor or with respect to which an Obligor has paid
additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to such Obligor an
amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made,
or additional amounts paid, by such Obligor under this Section with respect to
the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or
such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, as reasonably determined in the
Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s reasonable discretion and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority
with respect to such refund), provided that such Obligor, upon the request of
the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender, agrees to repay
the amount paid over to such Obligor (plus any penalties, interest or other
charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative
Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender in the event the Administrative Agent,
such Lender or such Issuing Lender is required to repay such refund to such
Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require the
Administrative Agent, any Lender or an Issuing Lender to make available its tax
returns or its books or records (or any other information relating to its taxes
that it deems confidential) to any Obligor or any other Person. Nothing in this
paragraph (g) is intended to, nor shall anything in this paragraph (g) be
construed to, require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to alter or
supplement any policy, procedure or system with respect to the identification,
tracking and allocation of tax refunds and neither the Administrative Agent nor
any Lender shall have any liability to any Obligor by reason of its
non-identification of any such refund.
          SECTION 11.05. Payments; Currency.
          (a) Payments Generally. Each Borrower shall make each payment and
prepayment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest,
fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or under Section 2.14, 2.15, or
11.04, or otherwise) or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent
otherwise provided therein) prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date
when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any
amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the
Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding
Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments and
prepayments shall be made to the Administrative Agent to the Administrative
Agent’s Account, except as otherwise expressly provided in the relevant Loan
Document and except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Lender or the
Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and payments pursuant to
Sections 2.14, 2.15, 11.03 and 11.04, which shall be made directly to the
Persons entitled thereto. If any payment or prepayment hereunder shall be due on
a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment or prepayment, as the
case may be, shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the
case of any payment or prepayment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be
payable for the period of such extension.

- 102 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

          The Administrative Agent shall distribute any payments received by it
for account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following
receipt thereof, provided that, subject to any contrary provisions in the
Security Documents, any such payment received by it upon the exercise of
remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be applied to the
Obligations hereunder in the following order:
     first, to the payment of the costs and expenses of collecting such
payments, including reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the
Administrative Agent, and the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel, in
each case in such order as the Administrative Agent shall in its sole discretion
determine;
     second, to the payment of the Obligations (including cover for Letters of
Credit outstanding hereunder), in each case ratably in accordance with the
respective amounts thereof (except that the portion, if any, of LC Disbursements
made by the respective Issuing Lenders in excess of the amount thereof that the
Revolving Credit Lenders are required to pay to the Issuing Lenders under
Section 2.05(e) in respect of drawings on Letters of Credit shall be paid in
full prior to the payment of any other Obligations); and
     third, after payment in full of the Obligations, to the payment to the
Obligors as specified by the Company to the Administrative Agent.
           (b) Currency of Payment. All amounts owing under this Agreement or
under any other Loan Document (except to the extent, if any, otherwise provided
therein) are payable in Dollars.
           SECTION 11.06. Mitigation Obligations. If any Lender requests
compensation under Section 2.14, or if any Borrower is required to pay any
additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for account of any
Lender pursuant to Section 11.04, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts
to designate a different lending office 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 2.14 or 11.04, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not
subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise
be disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such
designation or assignment.
           SECTION 11.07. Reallocation of Exposures. On the date of occurrence
of any Event of Default described in paragraph (h) or (i) of Article IX with
respect to the Parent, FWL, Holdco, any Borrower or any Obligor constituting a
Significant Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent shall calculate the amount of
the Section 11.07 Exposure (as defined below) of each Revolving Credit Lender
and each Incremental Lender of each Series on such date (the “Calculation
Date”), and the percentage that each such amount represents of the aggregate
amount of the Section 11.07 Exposures of all of the Lenders on the Calculation
Date (such percentage being referred to herein as the “Credit Percentage” for
the Lender holding such amount).

- 103 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

          Upon each date on or after the Calculation Date upon which any of the
events described below shall occur, the Lenders shall take the actions described
below in this Section with the objective of ensuring that any reductions in
Section 11.07 Exposure after the Calculation Date are shared ratably among the
Lenders in accordance with their respective Credit Percentages:
     (a) in the case of a payment (including by way of offset or counterclaim or
otherwise) of any principal of any Revolving Credit Loan or Incremental Loan of
any Series, or any payment to any Lender in respect of an LC Disbursement under
a Letter of Credit following a drawing thereunder, each Lender receiving any
such payment in an amount greater than its Credit Percentage of the aggregate
remaining Section 11.07 Exposure of all of the Lenders shall purchase
participations in the Section 11.07 Exposure of each of the other Lenders in
such amounts as shall be necessary so that the benefit of such payment is shared
by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Credit Percentages;
     (b) in the case of a payment (including by way of offset or counterclaim or
otherwise) of any interest or fees owing under this Agreement as of the
Calculation Date, each Lender receiving any such payment in an amount greater
than its Credit Percentage of the aggregate remaining Section 11.07 Exposure of
all of the Lenders shall purchase participations in the Section 11.07 Exposure
of each of the other Lenders in such amounts as shall be necessary so that the
benefit of such payment is shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with
their respective Credit Percentages (it being understood that payment made in
respect of interest and fees accruing under this Agreement after the Calculation
Date shall not be subject to this Section); and
     (c) in the case of a termination or expiration of a Letter of Credit
without any drawing thereunder, each Lender receiving a reduction in its
Section 11.07 Exposure as a result thereof in an amount greater than its Credit
Percentage of the aggregate remaining Section 11.07 Exposure of all of the
Lenders shall purchase participations in the Section 11.07 Exposure of each of
the other Lenders in such amounts as shall be necessary so that the benefit of
such reduction is shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their
respective Credit Percentages.
          Any purchase of a participation in the principal of a Loan, or any
interest or fees, shall be effected by the purchaser paying to the seller of the
participation an amount in cash (at full face value) equal to the amount of such
participation. Any purchase of a participation in a Letter of Credit shall be
effected by the purchaser depositing the cash amount of the participation to be
purchased with the respective Issuing Lender of such Letter of Credit, such cash
to be held by such Issuing Lender as collateral security for the obligation of
the purchaser of such participation to fund its obligation to pay for such
participation upon any drawing under such Letter of Credit, provided that if
such Letter of Credit shall expire or be terminated without being drawn, the
amount so deposited shall be reallocated to the extent necessary in accordance
with the foregoing provisions of this Section. Any participation in a Letter of
Credit shall be effected without any requirement of any additional execution or
delivery of any documents.

- 104 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

          The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized and directed by each of
the Lenders to effect the participations described in the preceding paragraph
for their account, and to maintain appropriate records thereof on the Register,
without any requirement that payments be formally remitted to the Lenders prior
to the effectuation of such participations.
          For purposes hereof, “Section 11.07 Exposure” means, as at any date,
(a) in respect of any Revolving Credit Lender, the sum of the outstanding
principal of such Lender’s Syndicated Revolving Credit Loans, its LC Exposure
(without deducting the balance, if any, in the Letter of Credit Collateral
Account under and as defined in Section 2.05(k)) and Swingline Exposure on such
date together with all accrued interest and fees in respect thereof on such date
and (b) in respect of any Incremental Lender of any Series, the sum of the
outstanding principal of such Lender’s Incremental Loans of such Series on such
date, together with all accrued interest in respect thereof on such date
together with all accrued interest and fees in respect thereof on such date.
          Each Obligor 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 such
Obligor rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as
fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Obligor in the amount of
such participation.
          SECTION 11.08. Successors and Assigns.
           (a) Successors 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 (including any Affiliate of an Issuing
Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) no Borrower may assign
or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the
prior consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any
Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may
assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in
accordance with this Section. 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 (including any
Affiliate of an Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants
(to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent
expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy
or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
          (b) Assignments by Lenders.
           (i) Assignments Generally. Subject to the conditions set forth in
paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may 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 Commitment and the Loans at the time held by it) with the prior
written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:

- 105 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     (A) the Company, provided that no consent of the Company shall be required
for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee;
     (B) the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the
Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an
Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and
     (C) in the case of any assignment of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the
Swingline Lender and each Issuing Lender.
          (ii) Certain Conditions to Assignments. Assignments shall be subject
to the following additional conditions:
     (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate (or
Approved Fund) of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of
the assigning Lender’s Revolving Credit or Incremental Loan Commitment or Loans
of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or 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) shall not be less than $2,500,000 unless each of the Company and the
Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that (x) no such consent of the
Company shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
and (y) in determining the amount of any assignment, simultaneous assignments to
or from two or more affiliated Approved Funds shall be aggregated);
     (B) each partial assignment of any Revolving Credit or Incremental Loan
Commitment or Revolving Credit or Incremental Loans shall be made as an
assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement in respect of such Revolving Credit or
Incremental Loan Commitment and Loans, as applicable, provided that this clause
shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all
the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of
Revolving Credit or Incremental Loan Commitments or Revolving Credit or
Incremental Loans,
     (C) 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 simultaneous assignments to or from
two or more affiliated Approved Funds shall be treated as a single assignment
for purposes of such fee, and
     (D) the assignee, if not already a Lender, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and any applicable tax
forms as may be requested by the Administrative Agent.
          (iii) Effectiveness of Assignments. Subject to acceptance and
recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after
the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee
thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the

- 106 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the
rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement in addition to any
rights and obligations theretofore held by it as a Lender, and the assigning
Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such
Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement
(and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to
be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 2.14, 2.15, 11.03 and 11.04, as applicable). Any assignment or transfer
by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply
with this paragraph (b) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a
sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in
accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.
          (iv) Maintenance of Register. The Administrative Agent, acting for
this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, 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
and Incremental Loan Commitments of each Class and principal amount of Loans and
LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to
time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the
Company, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders may treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof
as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice
to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower
or any Issuing Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice. Any Lender shall be entitled to obtain confirmation
from the Administrative Agent of the entries in the Register with respect to
such Lender for purposes of verifying the amount of its Revolving Credit
Commitments and Incremental Loan Commitments recorded in the Register.
          (v) Acceptance of Assignments by Administrative Agent. Upon its
receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning
Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire
(unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), applicable tax forms,
if any, requested by the Administrative Agent (unless the assignee shall already
be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in
paragraph (b)(ii)(C) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment
required by paragraph (b)(i) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall
accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained
therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this
Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this
paragraph.
          (c) Participations.
          (i) Participations Generally. Any Lender may, without the consent of
the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or any Issuing
Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a
“Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under
this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Commitments and Loans held by
it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall
remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other
parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Company, the
Administrative

- 107 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely
and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which
a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain
the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment,
modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such
agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the
consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver
described in the first proviso to Section 11.02(b), or the first proviso to
Section 11.02(c), that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of
this Section, the Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 11.03 and 11.04, as applicable, to the same
extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment
pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each
Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.12 as though it
were a Lender, provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to
Section 2.16(c) as though it were a Lender.
          (ii) Limitations on Rights of Participants. A Participant shall not be
entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 11.04 than the
applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the
participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to
such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. A Participant
that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the
benefits of Section 11.04 unless the Company is notified of the participation
sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the
Company, to comply with Section 11.04(e) as though it were a Lender.
          (d) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a
security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to
secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure
obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any
such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge
or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its
obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender
as a party hereto.
          SECTION 11.09. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations
and warranties made by the Obligors herein and in the other Loan Documents, and
in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or
pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall be considered to
have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the
making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any
investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding
that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender may have had
notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at
the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and
effect so long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any
fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as
the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14,
2.15, 11.03 and 11.04 and Article X shall survive and remain in full force and
effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby,
the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of

- 108 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Credit, or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any
provision hereof or thereof. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 11.03 and
11.04 and Article X of the Existing Credit Agreement shall survive and remain in
full force and effect notwithstanding this amendment and restatement of the
Existing Credit Agreement.
          SECTION 11.10. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This
Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on
different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of
which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and
any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the
Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating
to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and
understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except
as provided in Section 6.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall
have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent
shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the
signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page
of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually
executed counterpart of this Agreement.
          Each initial Lender shall become a party to this Agreement by
delivering to the Administrative Agent a Lender Addendum duly executed by such
Lender and the Borrowers and, by executing its Lender Addendum, each such Lender
agrees to be bound by the provisions hereof with the Revolving Credit Commitment
set forth opposite its name in such Lender Addendum.
          SECTION 11.11. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to
be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in
a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other
jurisdiction.
          SECTION 11.12. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and
from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply
any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final)
at any time held and other Indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or any
branch, agency or Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of any
Obligor against any of and all the obligations of any Obligor now or hereafter
existing under this Agreement, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall
have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be
unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section 11.12 are in addition to
any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such
Lender may have. Each Lender exercising any such right of set off shall promptly
provide notice thereof to the Company and the Administrative Agent (it being
understood that failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the validity of
such set off).

- 109 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

          SECTION 11.13. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of
Process.
          (a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance
with and governed by the law of the State of New York.
          (b) Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the
nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting
in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern
District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the
parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in
respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such
New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in any such federal
court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such
action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.
Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party may otherwise
have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the Notes,
if any, in the courts of any jurisdiction.
          (c) Waiver of Venue, Etc. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and
unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do
so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of
any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or
any other Loan Document in any New York State or federal court. Each of the
parties hereto irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the
defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding
in any such court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in
any such action, suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in
other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or any other manner provided by law.
          (d) Process Agent. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents
to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 11.01. In
addition, each Obligor not organized in the United States of America or a State
thereof (each such Obligor being herein called a “Foreign Obligor”) hereby
irrevocably appoints CT Corporation System (the “Process Agent”) with an office
on the date hereof at 111 Eighth Avenue, 13th Floor, New York, New York 10011,
United States, as its agent to receive on behalf of such Obligor and its
property service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process
which may be served in any such action or proceeding. Such service may be made
by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to such Obligor in care of the
Process Agent at the Process Agent’s above address, and such Obligor hereby
irrevocably authorizes and directs the Process Agent to accept such service on
its behalf. As an alternative method of service, each Obligor also irrevocably
consents to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding
by the mailing of copies of such process to such Obligor at its address
specified in Section 11.01 (such service to be effective seven days after
mailing thereof). Each Foreign Obligor covenants and agrees that it shall take
any and all reasonable action, including the execution and filing of any and all
documents, that may be necessary to continue the designation of the Process
Agent above in full force and effect, and to cause the Process Agent to continue
to act as such.

- 110 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

          (e) Other Process. Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of
any Lender or the Administrative Agent to serve legal process in any other
manner permitted by applicable law or affect the right of any Lender or the
Administrative Agent to bring any suit, action or proceeding against each
Obligor or its property in the courts of other jurisdictions.
          SECTION 11.14. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES,
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER
BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES
THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED,
EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF
LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT
AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY,
AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.14.
          SECTION 11.15. Judgment Currency. This is an international loan
transaction in which the specification of Dollars or a Foreign Currency, as the
case may be (the “Specified Currency”), and payment in New York City or the city
specified by the Administrative Agent for the payment of such Foreign Currency,
as the case may be (the “Specified Place”), is of the essence, and the Specified
Currency shall be the currency of account in all events relating to Loans or
other obligations denominated in the Specified Currency. The payment obligations
of any Obligor under this Agreement shall not be discharged or satisfied by an
amount paid in another currency or in another place, whether pursuant to a
judgment or otherwise, to the extent that the amount so paid on conversion to
the Specified Currency and transfer to the Specified Place under normal banking
procedures does not yield the amount of the Specified Currency at the Specified
Place due hereunder. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is
necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in the Specified Currency into another
currency (the “Second Currency”), the rate of exchange that shall be applied
shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the
Administrative Agent could purchase the Specified Currency with the Second
Currency on the Business Day next preceding the day on which such judgment is
rendered.
          The obligation of any Obligor in respect of any such sum due from it
to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (in this Section called an
“Entitled Person”) shall, notwithstanding the rate of exchange actually applied
in rendering such judgment, be discharged only to the extent that on the
Business Day following receipt by such Entitled Person of any sum adjudged to be
due hereunder in the Second Currency such Entitled Person may in accordance with
normal banking procedures purchase and transfer to the Specified Place the
Specified Currency with the amount of the Second Currency so adjudged to be due;
and such Obligor hereby, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such
judgment, agrees to indemnify such Entitled Person against, and to pay such
Entitled Person on demand, in the Specified Currency, the amount (if any) by
which the sum originally due to such Entitled Person in the Specified Currency
hereunder exceeds the amount of the Specified Currency so purchased and
transferred.

- 111 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

          SECTION 11.16. No Immunity. To the extent that any Obligor organized
outside the United States of America may be or become entitled, in any
jurisdiction in which judicial proceedings may at any time be commenced with
respect to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, to claim for itself or
its properties or revenues any immunity from suit, court jurisdiction,
attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of a judgment,
execution of a judgment or from any other legal process or remedy relating to
its obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and to the
extent that in any such jurisdiction there may be attributed such an immunity
(whether or not claimed), such Obligor hereby irrevocably agrees not to claim
and hereby irrevocably waives such immunity to the fullest extent permitted by
the laws of such jurisdiction.
          SECTION 11.17. Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each
of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders agrees to
maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that
Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its
Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents,
advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom
such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such
Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the
extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction
over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by
applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process;
provided that, unless prohibited by law or by the rules governing the process
requiring such disclosure, (i) it will promptly notify the Company of the
existence, terms and circumstances surrounding such requirement, (ii) it will
consult with the Company on the advisability of taking legally available steps
to resist or narrow such requirement, and (iii) it will identify to the Company
any such Information which is legally required to be disclosed and will exercise
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an order or other reliable assurance,
at the Company’s expense, that confidential treatment will be accorded to such
information, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) 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, (f) subject to an agreement
containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to
(i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or
Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or
(ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or
derivative transaction relating to any Obligor and its obligations, (g) with the
consent of the Company or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes
publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or
(y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing
Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a
source other than the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries.
          For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information
received from the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Parent or
any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any
such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or
any Issuing Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Parent
or any of its Subsidiaries, provided that, in the case of information received
from the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries after the date hereof, such
information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any
Person required to maintain the confidentiality of

- 112 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied
with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of
care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would
accord to its own confidential information.
          SECTION 11.18. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of
Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this
Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into
consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.
          SECTION 11.19. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the
Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of
Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), such Lender may be required
to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which
information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and other information
that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrowers in accordance with said
Act.
          SECTION 11.20. Effect of Amendment and Restatement of the Existing
Credit Agreement.
     (a) On the Restatement Effective Date, the Existing Credit Agreement shall
be amended and restated in its entirety by this Agreement, and the Existing
Credit Agreement shall thereafter be and shall be deemed replaced and superseded
in all respects by this Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that
(i) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, whether executed and delivered
in connection herewith or otherwise, do not constitute a novation or termination
of the “Obligations” under the Existing Credit Agreement or the other Loan
Documents as in effect prior to the Restatement Effective Date and which remain
outstanding as of the Restatement Effective Date, (ii) the “Obligations” under
Existing Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are in all respects
continuing (as amended and restated hereby and which are in all respects
hereinafter subject to the terms herein) and (iii) the Liens and security
interests as granted under the applicable Loan Documents securing payment of
such “Obligations” are in all respects continuing and in full force and effect
and are reaffirmed hereby.
     (b) On and after the Restatement Effective Date, (i) all references to the
Existing Credit Agreement or the “Credit Agreement” in the Loan Documents (other
than this Agreement) shall be deemed to refer to the Existing Credit Agreement
as amended and restated hereby, (ii) all references to any section (or
subsection) of the Existing Credit Agreement or the “Credit Agreement” in any
Loan Document (but not herein) shall be deemed to refer to the corresponding
provisions of this Agreement and (iii) except as the context otherwise provides,
on or after the Restatement Effective Date, all references to this Agreement
herein (including for purposes of indemnification and reimbursement of fees)
shall be deemed to be references to the Existing Credit Agreement as amended and
restated hereby.
     (c) This amendment and restatement is limited as written and is not a
consent to any other amendment, restatement or waiver or other modification,
whether or not similar and, except as expressly provided herein or in any other
Loan Document, all

- 113 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

terms and conditions of the Loan Documents remain in full force and effect
unless otherwise specifically amended hereby or by any other Loan Document.
     (d) The Lenders hereby authorize and direct the Administrative Agent to
execute and deliver all Security Documents and other documents or instruments
necessary or advisable to effect this amendment and restatement, including, for
the avoidance of doubt, any modifications to any mortgages previously executed
and delivered to the Administrative Agent by any Obligor.

- 114 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

be duly executed by their respective authorized representatives as of the day
