notifies the Administrative Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment to any
provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the date
hereof in GAAP or SAP, as applicable, or in the application thereof on the
operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the

for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or

effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective
until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in
accordance herewith; provided further that any change in GAAP after the

SECTION 2. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS AND LOANS

 

2.1 Commitment; Making of Loan; Notes.

A. Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each
Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make Loans to the Borrower during the
Availability Period funded in up to two Borrowings (i) to the extent used solely
to finance the redemption of the Existing 2018 Senior Notes and fees and
expenses in connection therewith, on a date that is not more than 60 days prior
to the date that such redemption payment is due pursuant to the terms thereof
and (ii) to the extent solely used to finance the Merger Transactions, the
transactions contemplated by or related to the foregoing and fees and expenses
in connection therewith, on the Merger Transactions Closing Date, in any event
such Loans not exceeding in the aggregate such Lender’s Commitment as in effect
on such date immediately prior to making such Loans. Any amount borrowed under
this Section 2.1A and subsequently repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. Any
undrawn Commitments shall automatically be terminated at 5:00 p.m. on the
Commitment Termination Date.

B. Borrowing Mechanics; Minimum Amount. The Borrower shall notify the
Administrative Agent of each proposed new Borrowing by delivering a Notice of
Borrowing no later than (a) 12:00 p.m. at least three Business Days in advance
of a proposed Borrowing of LIBOR Loans or (b) 9:00 a.m. on the day of a proposed
Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. Promptly upon receipt by the Administrative Agent
of such Notice of Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender
of the proposed Borrowing and such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing.
Each Borrowing shall be in a principal amount of $50,000,000 or a higher
integral multiple of $1,000,000. Each Lender at its option may make any Loan by
causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such
Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation
of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement.

 

24

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

C. Disbursement of Funds. Each Lender shall make its Loan available to the
Administrative Agent not later than 9:00 a.m. (or, in the case of any Borrowing
of Base Rate Loans requested on the same day, 12:00 p.m.) on the date of each
proposed Borrowing, in each case by wire transfer of same day funds in Dollars,
at the Funding and Payment Office. Upon satisfaction or waiver of the applicable
conditions precedent specified in Section 3, the Administrative Agent shall make
the proceeds of the Loans available to the Borrower on the date of such proposed
Borrowing by causing an amount of same day funds in Dollars equal to the
proceeds of all such Loans received by the Administrative Agent from the Lenders
to be credited to the account of the Borrower at the Funding and Payment Office
or to such other account as may be designated in writing to the Administrative
Agent by the Borrower.

D. Notes. Upon request by any Lender, the Borrower shall promptly execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent for such Lender a Note to evidence such
Lender’s Loans, in the principal amount of that Lender’s Commitment and with
other appropriate insertions. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the
payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until
an Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or transfer thereof shall have
been accepted by the Administrative Agent as provided in Section 8.1C. Any
request, authority or consent of any Person that, at the time of making such
request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any Note shall be
conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of that
Note or of any Note issued in exchange therefor.

E. The Register.

(i) The Administrative Agent shall, acting solely for this purpose as a
non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain at the Funding and Payment Office
a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the
principal amount and stated interest of the Loans and the Commitment of each
Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The Register shall be available for
inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to
time upon reasonable prior notice.

(ii) The Administrative Agent shall record in the Register the Commitment and
the Loans of each Lender, and each repayment or prepayment of the principal
amount of such Loans. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on
the Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest error; provided that failure to
make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect
any Lender’s Commitment or the Obligations in respect of any applicable Loan.

(iii) Each Lender shall record on its internal records (or, at such Lender’s
option, on the Note held by such Lender) the amount of each Loan made by it and
each payment thereof. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on
the Borrower, absent manifest error; provided that failure to make any such
recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s
Commitment or the Obligations in respect of any applicable Loan; and provided,
further, that in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any
Lender’s records, the recordations in the Register shall govern (absent manifest
error therein).

(iv) The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall deem and treat
the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the
corresponding Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and
no assignment or transfer of any such Commitment or Loan shall be effective, in
each case unless and until an Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or
transfer thereof shall have been accepted by the Administrative Agent and
recorded in the

 

25

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

Register as provided in Section 8.1C. Prior to such recordation, all amounts
owed with respect to the applicable Commitment or Loan shall be owed to the
Lender listed in the Register as the owner thereof, and any request, authority
or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such
authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive
and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the
corresponding Commitments or Loans.

 

2.2 Interest on the Loans.

A. Rate of Interest; Type of Loan.

(i) Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.2E, 2.5 and 2.6, each Loan shall
bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made to the
date of repayment thereof at a rate equal to (a) at any time such Loan is a Base
Rate Loan, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and (b) at any time such
Loan is a LIBOR Loan, the LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin.

(ii) The basis for determining the rate of interest on any Loan, and the
Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan, shall be selected by the Borrower and
notified to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the applicable Notice of
Borrowing or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be. If on any day a
Loan is outstanding with respect to which a Notice of Borrowing or
Conversion/Continuation Notice has not been delivered to the Administrative
Agent in accordance with the terms hereof specifying the applicable basis for
determining the rate of interest, then for that day such Loan shall be a Base
Rate Loan.

(iii) If the Borrower fails to specify Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans in the
applicable Notice of Borrowing or Conversion/Continuation Notice, the applicable
Borrowing (if comprised of LIBOR Loans) will be automatically converted into a
Borrowing of Base Rate Loans on the last day of the then-current Interest Period
for such Borrowing (or if outstanding as a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans will
remain as, or (if not then outstanding) will be made as, a Borrowing of Base
Rate Loans). As soon as practicable after 11:00 a.m. on each Interest Rate
Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine (which
determination shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding
upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the LIBOR Loans for
which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest
Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone
confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and each Lender.

B. Interest Periods. An interest period (each an “Interest Period”) for a
Borrowing of LIBOR Loans shall be a one, two, three or six month period, as
selected by the Borrower in the applicable Notice of Borrowing or
Conversion/Continuation Notice; provided that:

(i) each successive Interest Period for a Borrowing shall commence on the day on
which the immediately preceding Interest Period expires;

(ii) if an Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a
Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business
Day; provided that, if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that
is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business
Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the immediately
preceding Business Day;

(iii) any Interest Period that begins on the last Business Day of a calendar
month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the
calendar month at the end of such Interest Period) shall end on the last
Business Day of a calendar month;

 

26

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

(iv) no Interest Period shall extend beyond the scheduled Maturity Date;

(v) there shall be no more than five Interest Periods outstanding at any time;
and

(vi) in the event the Borrower fails to specify an Interest Period for any such
Borrowing in the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Conversion/Continuation
Notice, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one
month.

C. Interest Payments. The Borrower shall pay all accrued and unpaid interest on
each LIBOR Loan on each Interest Payment Date therefor, upon any prepayment
thereof (on the amount being prepaid) and at maturity (by acceleration or
otherwise). Accrued and unpaid interest on Base Rate Loans shall be payable on
each Interest Payment Date therefor and at maturity (by acceleration or
otherwise).

D. Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal amount of the
Loans, interest payments or fees or other amounts payable hereunder are not paid
when due, such overdue amount shall bear interest (including post-petition
interest in any case or proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable
bankruptcy laws) payable upon demand at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the
case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.00% in excess of the rate otherwise
payable with respect to such Loan and (ii) in the case of any other amount,
2.00% in excess of the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans. Without
duplication of amounts charged under the immediately preceding sentence, upon
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the election of the
Requisite Lenders, all outstanding Loans shall bear interest (including
post-petition interest in any case or proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or
other applicable bankruptcy laws) payable upon demand at a rate per annum equal
to 2.00% in excess of the rate otherwise payable with respect to the applicable
Loans (or, in the case of any other amounts then due and payable, at a rate per
annum equal to 2.00% in excess of the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans).
Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this
Section 2.2D is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not
constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any
rights or remedies of the Agents or the Lenders.

E. Computation of Interest. Interest payable hereunder shall be computed (i) in
the case of Base Rate Loans at times when the Base Rate is based on the Prime
Rate, on the basis of a 365-day or 366-day year, as the case may be, and (ii) in
the case of LIBOR Loans, and Base Rate Loans at times when the Base Rate is
based on the Federal Funds Effective Rate or LIBOR, on the basis of a 360-day
year, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during
which it accrues. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of
such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or,
with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a LIBOR Loan, the date of
conversion of such LIBOR Loan to such Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall
be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an
Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan
being converted to a LIBOR Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan
to such LIBOR Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided that if a
Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be
paid on that Loan.

F. Conversion/Continuation.

(i) Subject to Section 2.6 and so long as no Potential Event of Default or Event
of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, the Borrower shall have
the option:

(a) to convert at any time all or any part of any Borrowing, in an amount equal
to $5,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000, from one Type of Loan
to the other Type of Loan; provided that LIBOR Loans may only be converted on
the expiration of the Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Loans unless the
Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 2.6 in connection with such
conversion; or

 

27

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

(b) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Borrowing of
LIBOR Loans, to continue all or any portion of such Borrowing in an amount equal
to $5,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000 as LIBOR Loans for a
new Interest Period.

(ii) The Borrower shall deliver a Conversion/Continuation Notice to the
Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. at least one Business Day in
advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to Base
Rate Loans) and at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed
conversion/continuation date (in the case of conversion to, or continuation of,
LIBOR Loans). Except as otherwise provided herein, a Conversion/Continuation
Notice for conversion to, or continuation of, LIBOR Loans (or telephonic notice
in lieu thereof) shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate
Determination Date, and the Borrower shall be bound to effect a conversion or
continuation in accordance therewith.

 

2.3 Fees.

A. Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for
the account of each Lender for each day during the period from and including the
date hereof to and including the date such Commitment is terminated, a
commitment fee on the unused amount of such Lender’s Commitment which shall
accrue at the Commitment Fee Rate. Commitment fees accrued through and including
the last day of each Fiscal Quarter shall be payable on the third Business Day
following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the
Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on
which the Commitments terminate. All commitment fees will be computed on the
basis of a year of 360 days and will be payable for the actual number of days
elapsed.

B. Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Arrangers, Agents and the
Lenders any applicable fees respectively required to be paid to them in such
amounts and payable at such times as separately agreed between them in writing,
including as set forth in each Fee Letter.

A. Payments of Loans. The Loans and all other outstanding Obligations shall be
paid in full no later than the applicable Maturity Date with respect thereto.

B. Commitment Reductions; Prepayments.

(i) Commitment Reductions. The Borrower may at any time and from time to time
upon not less than three Business Day’s prior irrevocable written notice given
to the Administrative Agent, terminate or permanently reduce the unused portion
of the Commitments on any Business Day. Any such reduction shall be in the
amount of $5,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000. Any such
notice of termination or reduction of the Commitments having been given as
aforesaid shall be irrevocable and effective upon receipt by the Administrative
Agent.

(ii) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may from time to time pay, without
penalty or premium, all outstanding Loans, or, in a minimum aggregate amount of
$5,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000, any portion of the
outstanding Loans upon (a) three Business Days’ prior notice to the
Administrative Agent, in the case of a prepayment of LIBOR Loans, or (b) one
Business Day’s prior notice to the Administrative Agent, in the case of a
prepayment of Base Rate Loans. Any prepayment of a LIBOR Loan on a day other

Section 2.6C.

 

28

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

(iii) Mandatory Commitment Reductions and Prepayments.

(a) In the event that following the Merger Agreement Signing Date any Group
Member receives (including into escrow) any Net Cash Proceeds from any Debt
Issuance or Equity Issuance, then, to the extent that such Net Cash Proceeds are
not required to be applied (x) prior to the Merger Transactions Closing Date, to
reduce the commitments under the Bridge Facility or (y) on or after the Merger
Transactions Closing Date, to repay any loans outstanding under the Bridge
Facility, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied (1) first to automatically
reduce the Commitments on the date on which such Net Cash Proceeds are received
and (2) second, at any time following the initial Funding Date, to the extent
that such Net Cash Proceeds in the aggregate exceed the amount applied pursuant
to clause (1), to prepay Loans in an amount equal to such excess no later than
five Business Days following the date on which such Net Cash Proceeds are
received. Upon the receipt of any such Net Cash Proceeds, the Borrower shall
promptly, but in any event within two Business Days, notify the Administrative
Agent thereof and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of
its receipt of any such notice.

(b) If any Group Member enters into any Qualifying Committed Financing, then the
Borrower shall (within two Business Days thereof) notify the Administrative
Agent in writing of such Qualifying Committed Financing and any outstanding
Commitments shall (to the extent not required to reduce commitments under the
Bridge Facility) be automatically reduced by the committed principal amount of
such Qualifying Committed Financing on the date of entering into such Qualifying
Committed Financing.

(c) Any termination or reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this
Section 2.4B shall be permanent. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
each Lender of any reduction in the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.4B.
Each reduction of Commitments or prepayment of Loans pursuant to this
Section 2.4B shall be applied to the Commitments or Loans (as applicable) of the

be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be
made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be

payment shall be due and payable on the immediately preceding Business Day.

(iii) Distribution to Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall promptly
distribute to each Lender, at such address as such Lender shall indicate in
writing, such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments and prepayments
of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due
thereto, including all fees payable with respect thereto, to the extent received
by the Administrative Agent.

(iv) Interest on Costs and Expenses. If any Lender incurs any cost or expense
that this Agreement entitles it to collect from the Borrower, such cost or
expense shall be payable together with interest thereon at a rate per annum
equal to the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans as then in effect, from the date
such cost or expense is incurred until such payment date. Such Lender shall
notify the Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, of the cost or expense to
be paid plus the amount of interest thereon. This provision shall not apply to
payments or prepayments of principal or to amounts to be applied against
principal, interest or any cost or expense to be collected pursuant to
Section 2.6C.

(v) Failure to Make Certain Payments. If any Lender shall fail to make any
payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 9.4, then the
Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary
provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender and for the benefit of the
Administrative Agent to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections
until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such
amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any
future funding obligations of such Lender under such Sections, in the case of
each of (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative
Agent in its discretion.

 

2.5 Increased Costs; Taxes.

A. Compensation for Increased Costs and Taxes. Subject to the provisions of
Section 2.5B (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered
thereby), and without duplication of any amount paid under Section 2.5B), in the
event that any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, absent
manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto)
that any Change in Law:

(i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any additional
Tax (other than any Non-Excluded Tax covered by Section 2.5B and any Tax
described in Section 2.5(B)(i)(i) through (i)(iv)), with respect to this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of its obligations hereunder
or thereunder or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable lending office)
of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder;

(ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal,
emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve or assessment), special
deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or other insurance charge, liquidity or
similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in
or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or
any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (other than any
such reserve or other requirement with respect to LIBOR Loans that is reflected
in the definition of LIBOR); or

(iii) imposes any other condition, cost or expense (other than with respect to a
Tax matter) on or affecting this Agreement or such Lender (or its applicable
lending office) or its obligations hereunder or the London interbank market;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of
agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount
received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with
respect thereto; then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay to such
Lender upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, subject
to Section 2.4C(iv), such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an
increased rate of, or a different method of

 

30

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

calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall
determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased
cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder. Such Lender shall
deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written
statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the
additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.5A, which statement
shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

B. Withholding of Taxes.

(i) Payments to Be Free and Clear. All sums payable by the Borrower under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall (except to the extent required by
law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on
account of, any Tax imposed or increased as a result of a Change in Law after
the date hereof (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof
on the Effective Date) or after the effective date of the Assignment Agreement
pursuant to which such Lender became a Lender (in the case of each other Lender)
other than (i) a Tax imposed on or measured by the net income of any Lender
(including franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof); (ii) a branch profits tax
imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or within the United States
of America or any political subdivision in or of the United States of America or
any other jurisdiction from or to which a payment is made by or on behalf of the
Borrower; (iii) U.S. federal withholding Taxes imposed on amounts payable to or
for the account of a Lender with respect to its applicable interest in a Loan or
Commitment pursuant to a law in effect on the date on which (a) such Lender
acquires such interest in the Loan or Commitment (other than pursuant to an
assignment request by the Borrower under Section 2.7), or (b) such Lender
changes its lending office, except in each case to the extent that pursuant to
Section 2.5(B) amounts with respect to such Taxes were payable either to such
Lender’s assignor immediately before such Lender became a party hereto or
changed its lending office; or (iv) any Taxes imposed pursuant to FATCA (a
“Non-Excluded Tax”).

(ii) Grossing-up of Payments. If the Borrower or any other Person is required by
law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any Non-Excluded Tax from
any sum paid or payable by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any
Lender under any of the Loan Documents:

(a) the Borrower shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any such
requirement or any change in any such requirement;

(b) the Borrower shall pay any such Tax before the date on which penalties
attach thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on
the Borrower) for its own account or (if that liability is imposed on the
Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be) on behalf of and in the
name of the Administrative Agent or such Lender;

(c) the sum payable by the Borrower in respect of which the relevant deduction,
withholding or payment is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to
ensure that, after the making of that deduction, withholding or payment, the
Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due
date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction,
withholding or payment been required or made;

(d) the Borrower shall indemnify each such Lender, within 30 days after demand
by such Lender therefor, for the full amount of any Non-Excluded Tax paid or
incurred by such Lender with respect to any payment by or obligation of the
Borrower under the Loan Documents (including any Non-Excluded Tax imposed or
asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.5) and any
reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (such demand to be
made on a certificate stating the amount of such Non-Excluded Tax, which shall
be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error),
whether or not such Non-Excluded Tax was correctly or legally imposed or
asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; and

 

 

31

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

(e) within 30 days after paying any sum from which it is required by law to make
any deduction or withholding, and within 30 days after the due date of payment
of any Tax which it is required by clause (b) above to pay, the Borrower shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
other affected parties of such deduction, withholding or payment and of the
remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority.

(iii) Evidence of Exemption from U.S. Withholding Tax.

(a) Each Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for transmission to
the Borrower, on or prior to the Effective Date (in the case of each Lender
listed on the signature pages hereof on the Effective Date) or on or prior to
the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in
the case of each other Lender), and at such other times as may be necessary in
the determination of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent (each in the
reasonable exercise of its discretion), two original copies of Internal Revenue
Service Form W-9, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8IMY (including applicable attachments) or
W-8ECI (or any successor forms) or, in the case of a Lender that is not a United
States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal
Revenue Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes (a “Non-US Lender”) claiming
exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of
the Internal Revenue Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a
U.S. Tax Certificate and two original copies of Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, or any
subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly
executed by such Lender, and/or such other documentation required under the
Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by the Borrower to establish that
such Lender is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of withholding of
United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of
principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Loan
Documents. If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be
subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to
fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including
those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as
applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times
reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such
documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by
Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional
documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent
as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with
their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied
with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct
and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (a),
“FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this
Agreement.

(b) Each Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates or other evidence
with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to
Section 2.5B(iii)(a) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery
by such Lender of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse
in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other
evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Lender shall
promptly (1) deliver to the Administrative Agent for transmission to the
Borrower two new original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, W-8BEN,
W-8BEN-E, W-8IMY (including applicable attachments) or W-8ECI, or the applicable
U.S. Tax Certificate and two

 

32

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

original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as the case
may be, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and/or such other
documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested
by the Borrower to confirm or establish that such Lender is exempt from or
entitled to a reduced rate of withholding of United States federal income tax
with respect to payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents or (2) notify
the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of its legal inability to deliver any
such forms, certificates or other evidence.

(c) The Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any
Lender under Section 2.5B if such Lender shall have failed to satisfy the
requirements of clause (a) or (b)(1) of this Section 2.5B(iii); provided that if
such Lender shall have satisfied the requirements of Section 2.5B(iii)(a) on the
Effective Date or on the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it
became a Lender, as applicable, nothing in this Section 2.5B(iii)(c) shall
relieve the Borrower of its obligation to pay any additional amounts pursuant to
Section 2.5B(ii)(c) in the event that, as a result of any Change in Law, such
Lender is no longer legally permitted to deliver forms, certificates or other
evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender is exempt
from or entitled to a reduced rate of withholding.

(iv) Refunds. In the event that an additional payment is made under this
Section 2.5B for the account of any Lender and such Lender, in its sole
discretion, determines that it has finally and irrevocably received or been
granted a credit against or release or remission for, or repayment of, any Tax
paid or payable by it in respect of or calculated with reference to the
deduction or withholding giving rise to such payment, such Lender shall, to the
extent that it determines that it can do so without prejudice to the retention
of the amount of such credit, relief, remission or repayment, pay to the
Borrower such amount as such Lender shall, in its sole discretion exercised in
good faith, have determined to be attributable to such deduction or withholding
and which will leave such Lender (after such payment) in no worse position than
it would have been in if the Borrower had not been required to make such
deduction or withholding; provided that the Borrower, upon the request of a
Lender, shall repay to such Lender the amount paid over pursuant to this
paragraph (iv) (plus any interest, penalties, or other charges imposed by the
relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that the Lender is required to
repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Nothing herein contained shall
interfere with the right of a Lender to arrange its tax affairs in whatever
manner it thinks fit nor oblige any Lender to claim any tax credit or to
disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in
respect thereof or require any Lender to do anything that would prejudice its
ability to benefit from any other credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to
which it may be entitled.

(v) Other Taxes. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the
Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

C. Capital Adequacy or Liquidity Adjustment. In the event that any Lender shall
have determined that any Change in Law affecting such Lender any of its
applicable lending offices or any corporation controlling such Lender regarding
capital adequacy or liquidity has or would have the effect of reducing the rate
of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such
Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Loans or
Commitments, or participations therein or other obligations hereunder with
respect to the Loans to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling
corporation could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into
consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling corporation with
regard to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time, subject to
Section 2.4C(iv), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount
or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation on an
after-tax basis for such reduction. Such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in
reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts, which
statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent
manifest error.

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

2.6 Special Provisions Governing LIBOR Loans.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the
following provisions shall govern with respect to LIBOR Loans as to the matters
covered:

A. Applicable Interest Rate Not Determinable or Unfair. If, by reason of
circumstances affecting the interbank LIBOR market, (i) the Administrative Agent
shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and
binding upon all parties hereto) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist
for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to LIBOR Loans for any Interest
Period on the basis provided for in the definition of LIBOR (including, without
limitation, because the LIBOR Screen Rate is not available or published on a
current basis) or (ii) the Requisite Lenders shall determine (and notify the
Administrative Agent) prior to the first day of any Interest Period that the
LIBOR, as determined by the Administrative Agent, will not fairly and adequately
reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding or maintaining their respective
LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall
promptly give notice (by telecopy or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the
Borrower and each Lender of such determination, whereupon (a) no Loans may be
made as, or converted to, LIBOR Loans until such time as the Administrative
Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise
to such determination no longer exist and any such LIBOR Loans shall be repaid
on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto, and
(b) any Notice of Borrowing or Conversion/Continuation Notice given by the
Borrower with respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was
made shall be deemed to be made, continued, or converted as the case may be, as
a Base Rate Loan.

B. Illegality or Impracticability of LIBOR Loans. In the event that on any date
any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be final and
conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be made only after
consultation with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) that the making,
maintaining or continuation of its LIBOR Loans (i) has become unlawful as a
result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law, treaty,
governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any
such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the
force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful)
or (ii) has become impracticable, or would cause such Lender material hardship,
as a result of contingencies occurring after the date of this Agreement which
materially and adversely affect the interbank LIBOR market or the position of
such Lender in that market, then, and in any such event, such Lender shall be an
“Affected Lender” and it shall on that day give notice (by telecopy or by
telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of
such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly
transmit to each other Lender). Thereafter (a) the obligation of the Affected
Lender to make Loans as, or to convert Loans to, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended
until such notice shall be withdrawn by the Affected Lender, (b) to the extent
such determination by the Affected Lender relates to a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans
then being requested by the Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a
Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Affected Lender shall make its applicable
Loan as (or continue its applicable Loan as or convert its applicable Loan to,
as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan, (c) the Affected Lender’s obligation to
maintain its outstanding LIBOR Loans (the “Affected Loans”) shall be terminated
at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect
with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law, and (d) the Affected
Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans on the date of such
termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an
Affected Lender as described above relates to a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans then
being requested by the Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a
Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Borrower shall have the option, subject to
the provisions of Section 2.6C, to rescind such Notice of

 

34

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

Borrowing or Conversion/Continuation Notice as to all Lenders by giving notice
(by telecopy or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent
of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender gives notice of its
determination as described above (which notice of rescission the Administrative
Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Except as provided in the
immediately preceding sentence, nothing in this Section 2.6B shall affect the
obligation of any Lender other than an Affected Lender to make or maintain Loans
as, or to convert Loans to, LIBOR Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.

C. Compensation For Breakage. The Borrower shall compensate each Lender upon
written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for
requesting such amounts) for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities
(including any interest paid by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it
to make or carry its LIBOR Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by
such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds)
which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by
such Lender) any LIBOR Loan of such Lender is not made on a date specified
therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Conversion/Continuation Notice or in a
telephonic request for such Borrowing, (ii) if any prepayment or other principal
payment of, or any conversion of, any LIBOR Loan made by such Lender occurs on a
date other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan
(including as a result of Section 2.7) or (iii) if any prepayment of any LIBOR
Loan made by such Lender is not made on any date specified in a notice of
prepayment given by the Borrower.

D. Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Loans. Calculation of all amounts
payable to a Lender under this Section 2.6 and under Sections 2.5A and 2.5C
shall be made as though that Lender had actually funded each of its relevant
LIBOR Loans through the purchase of a LIBOR deposit bearing interest at the rate
obtained pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of “LIBOR” in an amount equal
to the amount of such LIBOR Loan and having a maturity comparable to the
relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such LIBOR deposit from an
offshore office of that Lender to a domestic office of that Lender in the United
States of America; provided that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in
any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for
the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 2.6 and under
Sections 2.5A and 2.5C.

 

2.7 Replacement of a Lender.

Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that:
(i) any Lender shall give notice to the Borrower that such Lender is an Affected
Lender or that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under Section 2.5,
2.6A or 2.6B (including, without limitation, any such payments resulting from
any change by such Lender in the office through which it makes LIBOR Loans), the
circumstances which have caused such Lender to be an Affected Lender or which
entitle such Lender to receive such payments shall remain in effect, and such
Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five Business Days after the
Borrower’s request for such withdrawal or (ii) at any time any Lender is a
Defaulting Lender, then, with respect to each such Lender (a “Terminated
Lender”), the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, by giving written
notice to the Administrative Agent and such Terminated Lender of its election to
do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby
irrevocably agrees) to assign all of its Commitment (if any), any outstanding
Loans and other interests, rights and obligations hereunder to one or more
Persons which are Eligible Assignees at such time (each a “Replacement Lender”)
in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.1 (including the consents of the
Administrative Agent required thereunder) for a purchase price equal to the
aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans held by such Terminated
Lender, together with accrued interest thereon and accrued and theretofore
unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Lender under Section 2.3 to but not
including the date of assignment, to be paid by the relevant Replacement Lender
on the date of such assignment; provided that (a) on the effective date of such
assignment, the Borrower shall pay any

 

35

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

amounts payable to such Terminated Lender to the date of such assignment
pursuant to Section 2.5 or 2.6 or otherwise as if it were a prepayment and
(b) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for payments under
Section 2.5, 2.6A or 2.6B, such assignment will result in the reduction in such
payments. Upon the completion of such assignment and the payment of all amounts
owing to any Terminated Lender, such Terminated Lender shall no longer
constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided that any right of such
Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such
Terminated Lender.

 

2.8 Mitigation.

Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such
Lender responsible for administering the Loans of such Lender becomes aware of
the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such
Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to receive
payments under Section 2.5 or Section 2.6, it will, to the extent not
inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal
or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts (i) to make, issue, fund or
maintain the Commitment of such Lender or the Affected Loans of such Lender
through another lending office of such Lender, or (ii) take such other measures
as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances
which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or
the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such
Lender pursuant to Section 2.5 or Section 2.6 would be materially reduced and
if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing,
funding or maintaining of such Commitment or Loans through such other lending
office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not
otherwise adversely affect such Commitment or Loans or the interests of such
Lender; provided that such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other
lending office pursuant to this Section 2.8 unless the Borrower agrees to pay
all incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such
other lending office as described in clause (i) above. A certificate as to the
amount of any such expenses payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.8
(setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount)
submitted by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

2.9 Defaulting Lenders.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender
becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so
long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) commitment fees shall cease to accrue on the unused portion of the
Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.3A; and

(b) the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender and the outstanding principal
amount of such Defaulting Lender’s Loans shall not be included in determining
whether all Lenders or the Requisite Lenders have taken or may take any action
hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to
Section 8.5), provided that any waiver, amendment or modification (i) described
in Section 8.5(A)(i) and 8.5(B)(i), (ii) requiring the consent of all Lenders or
(iii) each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender in a manner more
adversely than other affected Lenders shall, in each case, require the consent
of such Defaulting Lender.

 

36

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

4.3 Financial Condition.

A. GAAP Financial Statements. The Borrower has heretofore delivered to the
Administrative Agent (i) the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower

September 30, 2017 and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income,
stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Borrower for the Fiscal Quarter then
ended, together in each case with all related notes and schedules thereto, as
applicable.

All such statements of the Borrower were prepared in conformity with GAAP and
fairly present, in all material respects, the financial position of the entities
described in such financial statements as at the date thereof and the results of
operations and cash flows of the entities described therein for the period then

Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has as of the Effective Date
any contingent liability or liability for taxes, long-term lease or unusual
forward or long-term commitment that is not reflected in the foregoing financial
statements or the notes thereto and which in any such case would reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

41

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

B. Statutory Financial Statements. All annual convention statements for the
Fiscal Years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016, including the financial
statements on a statutory basis and the accompanying exhibits and schedules and
supplements thereto (the “Annual Convention Statements”), in each case filed
with any Applicable Insurance Regulatory Authority by the Insurance
Subsidiaries, (a) were duly filed, (b) were prepared in accordance with SAP
applied on a consistent basis throughout such periods except as otherwise stated
therein or required by the rules and regulations of the Applicable Insurance
Regulatory Authorities and in accordance with the books and records of the
Insurance Subsidiaries and (c) present fairly, in accordance with such
practices, the statutory financial position as at the date of, and the statutory
results of its operations for the periods covered by such Annual Convention
Statements. Each Insurance Subsidiary owns assets that qualify as legal reserve
assets under applicable insurance laws in an amount at least equal to all such
required reserves and other similar amounts of such Insurance Subsidiary, except
where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

Subsidiaries (the “Statutory Reserves”) as set forth in the Annual Convention
Statements and the Quarterly Convention Statements: (i) were determined in
accordance with generally accepted actuarial standards consistently applied,

Subsidiaries under the terms of its Insurance Contracts, Reinsurance Agreements

the requirements of all Applicable Insurance Regulatory Authorities, except
where such noncompliance could not reasonably be expected to have a Material

would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

evidences, or would reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in
the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.1, in each case except for
assets disposed of since the date of such financial statements and prior to the
Effective Date or as otherwise permitted under Section 6.6. Except as permitted
by this Agreement or as contemplated by the Loan Documents, all such properties
and assets are free and clear of Liens.

A. Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.6, there are no actions, suits, proceedings
(whether administrative, judicial or otherwise), arbitrations or governmental
investigations (whether or not purportedly on behalf of the ParentBorrower or

Authority, domestic or foreign (including any Environmental Claims), that are
pending or, to the knowledge of the ParentBorrower or any of its Subsidiaries,
threatened against or affecting the ParentBorrower or any of its Subsidiaries or

any applicable laws (including Environmental Laws) that, individually or in the

other governmental charges imposed upon the ParentBorrower and its Subsidiaries
and upon their respective properties, assets, income, businesses and franchises
which are due and payable have been paid when due and payable, except to the

Material Adverse Effect. Neither the ParentBorrower nor any of its Subsidiaries
knows of any proposed tax assessment against the ParentBorrower or any of its
Subsidiaries which is not adequately reserved in accordance with GAAP and being
contested by the ParentBorrower or such Subsidiary in good faith and by
appropriate proceedings.

performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or
conditions contained in any of its Contractual Obligations, and no condition
exists that, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would
constitute such a default, except where the consequences, direct or indirect, of
such default or defaults, if any, could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

in compliance with all applicable provisions and requirements of ERISA and the
Internal Revenue Code and the regulations and published interpretations
thereunder with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan, and have performed all
their obligations under each Employee Benefit Plan, except where the failure to
do so could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the
aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. Each Employee Benefit Plan that is
intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code has
received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service, or
is maintained under a prototype or volume submitter plan and may rely on a
favorable opinion or advisory letter issued by the Internal Revenue Service with
respect to such prototype or volume submitter plan, and the ParentBorrower is
not aware of any circumstances likely to result in revocation of such favorable
determination, opinion or advisory letter.

B. No liability to the PBGC (other than required premium payments), the Internal
Revenue Service, any Employee Benefit Plan or any trust established under Title
IV of ERISA (other than required contributions which have been timely made when
due) has been or is expected to be incurred by the ParentBorrower, any
Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate, and no ERISA Event has occurred or is
reasonably expected to occur, in each case that would reasonably be expected to
have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

Code, no Employee Benefit Plan provides health or welfare benefits (through the
purchase of insurance or otherwise) for any retired or former employee of the
ParentBorrower and its Subsidiaries that have not been accrued on the
Parent’sBorrower’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with the
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106. The ParentBorrower has
retained the right to amend or terminate its retiree medical arrangements at any
time.

D. The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each Pension
Plan sponsored, maintained or contributed to by the ParentBorrower, any
Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate (determined as of the beginning of the most
recent plan year on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding
purposes in the most recent actuarial valuation for such Pension Plan), did not
exceed the actuarial value of the assets of each such Pension Plan, in each case
by an amount which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

A. Neither the ParentBorrower nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of their
respective Facilities or operations are subject to any outstanding written
order, consent decree or settlement agreement with any Person relating to any

knowledge, have been no conditions, occurrences, or Hazardous Materials
Activities which could reasonably be expected to form the basis of an

individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

 

44

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

D. Compliance with all current or reasonably anticipated future requirements
pursuant to or under Environmental Laws is not reasonably expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

 

4.13 Solvency.

On each Funding Date, the ParentBorrower, individually, and together with each
of its Subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis), is Solvent.

 

4.14 Restrictions.

There are no contractual restrictions on the ParentBorrower or any of its
Subsidiaries which prohibit or otherwise restrict the transfer of cash or other
assets from any Subsidiary to the ParentBorrower, other than prohibitions or
restrictions permitted under Section 6.4.

 

4.15 Insurance Licenses.

No Insurance License, the suspension, revocation, termination, non-renewal or
limitation of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, is the subject of a proceeding for suspension, revocation, termination,
non-renewal or limitation and, to the knowledge of the ParentBorrower and its
Subsidiaries, no such suspension, revocation, termination, non-renewal or
limitation has been threatened by any Governmental Authority. No Insurance
Subsidiary transacts any Insurance Business, directly or indirectly, in any
jurisdiction where such business requires any Insurance License that is not
validly maintained by such Insurance Subsidiary, except where the failure to do
so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

4.16 Disclosure.

No representation or warranty of the Borrower contained in any of the Loan

projections and pro forma financial information contained in such materials are
based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by the ParentBorrower
to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Agents and the
Lenders that such projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts
and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such
projections may differ from the projected results. There are no facts known to
the ParentBorrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other than matters of a general
economic nature) that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and that have not been disclosed
herein or in such other documents, certificates and statements furnished to each
of the Agents for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

procedures designed to ensure compliance by the ParentBorrower and its
Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents with

Subsidiaries and their respective directors and officers and, to the knowledge
of the ParentBorrower, their respective employees and agents, are in compliance
with Anti-

and any related or similar rules, regulations or guidelines issued, administered
or enforced by any governmental agency (collectively, the “Anti-Money Laundering

agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving the ParentBorrower or any
of its Subsidiaries with respect to the Anti-Money Laundering Laws is pending
or, to the best of the Parent’sBorrower’s knowledge, threatened (in each case
solely with respect to the TWG Business on the Merger Transactions Closing Date,
to the knowledge of the ParentBorrower).

or transfer all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement
to one or more Persons which are Eligible Assignees at the time of such sale,
assignment or transfer, including all or a portion of its Commitment, Loans
owing to it or other Obligations (provided that each such assignment shall be of
a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and
in respect of any Loan and any related Commitment) with the prior written
consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

(i) the Borrower, provided that (x) no consent of the Borrower shall be required
for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or, only with respect to
an assignment of Loans made after the Closing Date, an Approved Fund or, if an
Event of Default under Sections 7.1, 7.6, 7.7 or 7.9 has occurred and is

59

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

(ii) the Administrative Agent, unless a Loan is being assigned to an existing
Lender, an Affiliate thereof or, only with respect to an assignment of Loans
made after the Closing Date, an Approved Fund.

provided, further, that each such partial assignment pursuant to this
Section 8.1A shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000 (or
such lesser amount as may be agreed to by the Borrower (unless an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing) and the Administrative Agent or as shall
constitute the aggregate amount of the Commitment and Loans of the assigning
Lender).

B. Requirements. The assigning Lender and the assignee thereof shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement, together with (i) a
processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (paid by the assigning Lender or the
assignee), and (ii) such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with
respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters as the assignee
under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver to the Administrative
Agent pursuant to Section 2.5B(iii) as if such assignee was a Lender pursuant to
that Section.

C. Acceptance and Notice of Assignment. Upon its receipt of a duly executed and
completed Assignment Agreement, together with the processing and recordation fee
referred to in Section 8.1B (and any form, certificate or other evidence
required by this Agreement in connection therewith), the Administrative Agent
shall record the information contained in such Assignment Agreement in the
Register, shall give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and shall maintain a
copy of such Assignment Agreement.

D. Effect of Assignment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Section 8.1, as of the “Effective Date” specified in the applicable Assignment
Agreement: (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of
a “Lender” hereunder to the extent such rights and obligations hereunder have
been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement and shall thereafter
be a party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof; (ii) the assigning
Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder
have been assigned thereby pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, relinquish its
rights (other than any rights which survive the termination hereof under
Section 8.8) and be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of
an Assignment Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party
hereto; provided that, anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the
contrary notwithstanding, such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to
the benefit of all indemnities hereunder as specified herein with respect to
matters arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a
Lender hereunder); (iii) the Commitments shall be modified to reflect the
Commitments of such assignee and of such assigning Lender, if any; and (iv) if
any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the
assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly
thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to the Administrative
Agent for cancellation, and thereupon the Borrower shall issue and deliver a new
Note, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee
and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new
Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning
Lender.

E. Certain Other Permitted Assignments. In addition to any other assignment
permitted pursuant to this Section 8.1, any Lender may assign and/or pledge all
or any portion of its Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to such Lender,
and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender, to any Person,
including any Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank having authority
over such Lender, as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the FRB and
any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank or other central
bank; provided that no Lender, as between the Borrower and such Lender, shall be
relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment
and/or pledge or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a
party hereto.

 

60

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

F. Assignment to a Special Purpose Funding Vehicle. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a
special purpose funding vehicle (a “SPFV”), identified as such in writing from
time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that
such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower
pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a
commitment by any SPFV to make any Loan, (ii) if an SPFV elects not to exercise
such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the
Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms
hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPFV hereunder shall utilize the Commitment
of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by
such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPFV shall be
liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all
liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of
the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive
the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and
one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other
senior Indebtedness of any SPFV, it will not institute against, or join any
other person in instituting against, such SPFV any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United
States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Section 8.1G, any SPFV may (i) with notice to, but
without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its
interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions
(consented to by the Borrower and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity
and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPFV to support the funding
or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public
information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer
or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such
SPFV.

G. Participations. Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or
more participations to any Person (other than a Group Member or its Affiliates)
in all or any part of its Commitment, Loans, interests and/or obligations in
respect of its other Obligations. The holder of any such participation, other
than an Affiliate of the Lender granting such participation, shall not be
entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder
except with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver that would
(i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note in which such
participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment
of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability
of any post default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount
thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the
amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Event of
Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Commitments shall not constitute a
change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any
Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if
the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof) or
(ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights
and obligations under this Agreement. The Borrower agrees that each participant
shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.6C and 2.5 (subject to the
requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under
Section 2.5B(iii)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired
its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 8.1A; provided that a participant
shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.5 than the
applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the
participation sold to such participant, except to the extent such entitlement to
receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the
participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by
law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.4 as
though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to
Section 8.18 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation
shall,

 

61

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

acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower,
maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant
and the principal amounts and stated interest of each Participant’s interest in
the Commitments and the Loans under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”);
provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion
of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any
participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any
Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to
the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment,
Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the
United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register
shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each
person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such
participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to
the contrary.

 

8.2 Expenses.

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, the
Borrower agrees to pay promptly (i) all actual, documented and reasonable costs
and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Arranger and each Agent in

required local counsel (limited to one such counsel in each jurisdiction) plus
one reasonably required insurance regulatory counsel); and (v) after the
occurrence of an Event of Default, all costs and expenses, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees and costs of settlement, incurred by either Arranger, any Agent
or Lender in enforcing any Obligations of or in collecting any payments due from
the Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by reason of such Event
of Default (including in connection with the sale of, collection from, or other
realization upon any collateral) or in connection with any refinancing or
restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in each
case in the nature of a “work-out” or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy

and hold harmless each of the Arrangers, the Agents and each Lender, and the
respective partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, other

 

62

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

advisors and affiliates of each of the Arrangers, each of the Agents, and each
Lender (collectively called the “Indemnitees”), from and against any and all
Indemnified Liabilities (as hereinafter defined); provided that the Borrower
shall not have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any
Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are
determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction to (i) arise from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct of that Indemnitee or any of its Related Indemnitees (as defined
below), (ii) result from a material breach by such Indemnitee of its obligations
hereunder (as determined pursuant to a claim made by the Borrower) or
(iii) arise from any dispute solely among Indemnitees other than any claims
against any Agent or Arranger in its capacity, or in fulfilling its role, as an
agent, arranger or any similar role under the Loan Documents and other than any
claims arising out of any act or omission on the part of the Borrower or its
Affiliates. As used herein, (i) “Indemnified Liabilities” means, collectively,
any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages (including natural
resource damages), penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims (including
Environmental Claims), costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature
whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for
Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial
proceeding commenced or threatened by any Person, whether or not any such
Indemnitee shall be designated as a party or a potential party thereto, and any
fees or expenses incurred by Indemnitees in enforcing this indemnity), whether
direct, indirect or consequential and whether based on any federal, state or
foreign laws, statutes, rules or regulations (including securities and
commercial laws, statutes, rules or regulations and Environmental Laws), on
common law or equitable cause or on contract or otherwise, that may be imposed
on, incurred by, or asserted against any such Indemnitee, in any manner relating
to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the Lenders’ agreements

proceeds thereof, or any enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, but shall not
include Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages
arising from a non-tax claim) and (ii) “Related Indemnitee” of an Indemnitee
means (1) any Controlling Person or Controlled Affiliate of such Indemnitee,
(2) the respective directors, officers, or employees of such Indemnitee or any

agents or representatives of such Indemnitee or any of its Controlling Persons
or Controlled Affiliates, in the case of this clause (3), acting on behalf of or
at the instructions of such Indemnitee, Controlling Person or such Controlled
Affiliate. As used in this Section 8.3A, “Control” means the possession,
directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the
management or policies of a Person, whether through the ability to exercise
voting power, by contract or otherwise, and the terms “Controlling” and
“Controlled” have meanings correlative thereto. If any claim or proceeding is
commenced as to which any of the Indemnitees proposes to demand indemnification,
such Indemnitees shall notify the Borrower with reasonable promptness; provided
that any failure to so notify the Borrower shall not relieve any Credit Party
from its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure materially and
adversely affects the Borrower.

B. To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold
harmless set forth in this Section 8.3 may be unenforceable in whole or in part
because they are violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall
contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under
applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities
incurred by Indemnitees or any of them.

C. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the ParentBorrower and each of its
Subsidiaries shall not assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against the
Lenders, the Agents, Arrangers and their respective Affiliates, officers,
directors, employees, attorneys or agents, (i) for any damages arising from the
use by others of information or other materials obtained through
telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems
(including the Internet), or (ii) on any theory of liability, for special,
indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual
damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty
imposed by any

 

63

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

applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, as a result
of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any
agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or
therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Credit Extension
hereunder or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event
occurring in connection therewith, and the ParentBorrower and each of its
Subsidiaries hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim
or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or
suspected to exist in its favor.

 

8.4 Set-Off.

In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not
by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, each of the Agents and each Lender, and
each of their respective Affiliates, is hereby authorized by the Credit Parties
at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Credit Parties or to any
other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to
appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including
Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured,
but not including trust accounts) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or
owing by such Agent or such Lender, or their respective Affiliates, as the case
may be, to or for the credit or the account of the ParentBorrower and its
Subsidiaries against and on account of any obligations and liabilities of the
Credit Parties to such Agent or such Lender under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents which are then due and payable, including all claims of any
nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not (i) such Agent or such
Lender shall have made any demand hereunder or (ii) said obligations and
liabilities, or any of them, may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees that it will
promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any exercise of such Lender’s rights
pursuant to Section 8.4; provided that no failure of such Lender to deliver such
notice shall affect the rights of such Lender hereunder.

 

8.5 Amendments and Waivers.

No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or of any other Loan Document, or consent to any departure by the
Credit Parties therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written
concurrence of the Requisite Lenders; provided that (A) no amendment,
modification, termination, waiver or consent shall, without the consent of each
Lender directly affected thereby: (i) extend or reduce the scheduled final
maturity of any Loan or Note, (ii) waive, reduce or postpone any scheduled
repayment (but not prepayment), (iii) reduce the rate of interest on any Loan or
any fee or other amount payable hereunder, (iv) extend the time for payment of

any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect without the consent of such
Lender or (ii) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of this Agreement
as the same applies to the rights or obligations of any Agent, in each case
without the consent of such Agent and (C) no Guarantor shall be released from
its Guarantee under any Guarantee Agreement (except as expressly provided in
such Guarantee Agreement or this Agreement) or limit its liability in respect of
such Guarantee without written consent of each Lender; provided, further, that
no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties
of the Administrative Agent without prior written consent of the Administrative
Agent. The Administrative Agent may also amend the Schedule 1.2 to reflect
assignments entered into pursuant to Section 8.1. The Administrative Agent may,
but shall have

 

64

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

no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments,
modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender. Any waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on the Credit Parties in
any case shall entitle the Credit Parties to any other or further notice or
demand in similar or other circumstances.

 

8.6 Independence of Covenants.

All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a
particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the

obligated to, make Communications (as defined below) available to the Lenders by
posting the Communications on Debt Domain, Intralinks, Syndtrak, ClearPar or a

(ii) Any Electronic System used by the Administrative Agent is provided “as is”
and “as available.” The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the

statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability,
fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or
freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in
connection with the Communications or any Electronic System. In no event shall
the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates or their respective

(collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower, any
Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without
limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages,
losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the
Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Communications through
an Electronic System, except to the extent of direct or actual damages as are
determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent Party’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct. “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand,
communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf
of the Borrower pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated
therein which is distributed by the Administrative Agent or any Lender by means
of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through an

No failure or delay on the part of either Arranger, any Agent or any Lender in
the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a
waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further
exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. The rights, powers
and remedies given to each Arranger, each Agent and each Lender hereby are
cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and
remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any other Loan
Document. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising,
any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or
remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further
exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

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

8.10 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside.

No Agent or Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor
of the Credit Parties or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all

payments to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders (or to the Administrative
Agent, on behalf of the Lenders) or the Administrative Agent or the Lenders

payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part
thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential,

equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part
thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies
therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and
effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or
setoff had not occurred.

 

8.11 Severability.

affected or impaired thereby.

implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties
hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the
extent expressly contemplated hereby, Affiliates of each of the Agents and the
Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

8.17 Confidentiality.

Each Lender shall hold all non-public information received by it regarding the
ParentBorrower and its Subsidiaries and their businesses in accordance with such
Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of this
nature and in accordance with safe and sound banking practices, it being
understood and agreed by the Borrower that, in any event, each Lender may make
disclosures (i) to Affiliates of such Lender and its and their respective agents
and advisors (and to other persons authorized by a Lender to organize, present
or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in
accordance with this Section 8.17) (it being understood that each such person to
which such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of
such information and instructed to keep such information confidential; provided
that such Lender shall be responsible for any breach of confidentiality by such
person); (ii) reasonably required by any bona fide or potential assignee,
transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment,
transfer or participation by any Lender of its Loans or any interest therein or
by any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or professional advisors
thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Credit Parties
and their respective obligations; provided that, prior to any disclosure, such
assignees, transferees, participants, counterparties and advisors are informed
of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 8.17 or other
provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 8.17; (iii) to any rating
agency when required by it; provided that, prior to any disclosure, such rating
agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any

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

EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION DESCRIBED IN THE

INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE PARENTBORROWER AND ITS
RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS
DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC

ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE
SECURITIES LAWS.

ALL SUCH INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED

OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY
CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE PARENTBORROWER AND ITS RELATED
PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO
THE CREDIT PARTIES AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS
ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT
MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE
PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW.

 

8.18 Ratable Sharing.

The Lenders hereby agree among themselves that if any of them shall, whether by
voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied
in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of
set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement
of any right under the Loan Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of
a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment
or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest,
amounts payable in respect of facility fees or commitment fees and other amounts
then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents
(collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender), which is greater
than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect to of the Aggregate
Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately
greater payment shall (i) notify the Administrative Agent and each other Lender
of the receipt of such payment and (ii) apply a portion of such payment to
purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each
seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its
portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so
that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders
in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided that, if all or
part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender
is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization
of the Credit Parties or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the
purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such
purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.
The ParentBorrower and each of its Subsidiaries expressly consents to the
foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased
may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set-off or counterclaim with
respect to any and all monies owing by the ParentBorrower or any of its
Subsidiaries to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were
owed the amount of the participation held by that holder.

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

8.19 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.

This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto or in
connection herewith may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which
when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such
counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. This
Agreement, the other Loan Documents 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 3.1, 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,
e-mailed.pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the
actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually
executed counterpart of this Agreement. The words “execution,” “signed,”
“signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to any document
to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the
keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal
effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical
delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case
may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the
Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York
State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws
based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

 

8.20 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights.

The obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be
responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder.
Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document, and no action taken by
any of the Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute any
of the Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other
kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall
be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect
and enforce its rights arising hereunder and it shall not be necessary for any
other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such
purpose.

 

8.21 Usury Savings Clause.

Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged
with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in
connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall
not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. As used herein, “Highest Lawful Rate” means
the maximum lawful interest rate, if any, that at any time or from time to time
may be contracted for, charged, or received under the laws applicable to any
Lender which are presently in effect or, to the extent allowed by law, under
such applicable laws which may hereafter be in effect and which allow a higher
maximum nonusurious interest rate than applicable laws now allow. If the rate of
interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this
Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of
the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until
the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which
would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this
Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made
hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into
account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of
interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set
forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent
permitted by law, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount
equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of
interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times
been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of the
Lenders and the Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws.
Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration
which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such
excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such
Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder
or be refunded to the Borrower.

 

71

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

8.22 PATRIOT Act.

Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of
the Patriot Act, such Lender may be required to obtain, verify and record
information that identifies the Credit Parties, which information includes the
name and address of the Credit Parties and other information that will allow
such Lender to identify the Credit Parties in accordance with the Patriot Act.

 

8.23 No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationships.

In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby
(including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof
or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that:
(i) (a) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by
the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Arrangers are arm’s-length
commercial transactions among the ParentBorrower, its Subsidiaries and their
respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the
Lenders and the Arrangers, on the other hand, (b) the Credit Parties has
consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent
it has deemed appropriate and (c) each Credit Party is capable of evaluating,
and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions
contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (a) the Administrative
Agent, the Lenders and the Arrangers each is and has been acting solely as a
principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties,
has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary
for the ParentBorrower, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates
or any other Person and (b) none of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the
Arrangers has any obligation to any of the Credit Parties, their Subsidiaries or
any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan
Documents; and (c) the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Arrangers and
their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that
involve interests that differ from those of the ParentBorrower, its Subsidiaries
and their respective Affiliates, and none of the Administrative Agent, the
Lenders or the Arrangers has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to
any of the ParentBorrower, its Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates.

 

8.24 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other
agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party
hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising
under any Loan Document may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers
of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and
agrees to be bound by:

A. the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution
Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it
by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent entity,
or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it,
and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in
lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the
exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution
Authority.

 

8.25 Release of Guarantees.

A. A Subsidiary Guarantor (other than the Borrower) shall be automatically
released from its obligations under (x) the Loan Documents upon the consummation
of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which (i) such
Subsidiary Guarantor shall cease to be a Subsidiary or (ii) such Subsidiary
Guarantor no longer incurs, borrows or Guarantees any Material Indebtedness
(other than intercompany Indebtedness among Group Members) and (y) any Guarantee
Agreement to the extent provided therein.

B. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section 8.25,
the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of any certificates or other documents
reasonably requested by it to confirm compliance with this Agreement, shall
promptly execute and deliver to the Borrower or the applicable Credit Party, at
the Borrower’s expense, all documents that the Borrower or such Credit Party
shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. The Lenders
hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to take all actions
specified in this Section 8.25.

SECTION 9. AGENTS

 

9.1 Appointment.

JPMCB is hereby appointed by each Lender as the Administrative Agent hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby authorizes the
Administrative Agent to act as its contractual representative in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Agent hereby
agrees to act upon the express conditions contained in this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, as applicable. The provisions of this Section 9 are solely
for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders, and the Borrower and the other
Group Members shall have no rights as third party beneficiaries of any of the
provisions thereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement,
each of the Agents shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and does not
assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or
relationship of agency or trust with or for the ParentBorrower or any of its
Subsidiaries.

 

9.2 Powers and Duties; General Immunity.

A. Powers; Duties Specified. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent to
take such action on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and
remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as are specifically
delegated or granted to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together
with such powers, rights and remedies as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each
Agent shall have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly
specified in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Agent may
exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through
its agents, employees and shall not be answerable to the Lenders, except as to
money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the default or
misconduct of any such agent, employee or attorney-in-fact selected by it with
reasonable care. Each Agent shall be entitled to advice of

 

73

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

counsel concerning the contractual arrangement between such Agent and the
Lenders and all matters pertaining to such Agent’s duties hereunder and under
any other Loan Document. No Agent shall have, by reason of this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender;
and nothing in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, expressed or
implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon any Agent any
obligations in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
except as expressly set forth herein or therein. In its capacity as the Lenders’
contractual representative, the Administrative Agent is acting as an independent
contractor, the rights and duties of which are limited to those expressly set
forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each of the Lenders hereby
agrees to assert no claim against any Agent on any agency theory or any other
theory of liability for breach of fiduciary duty, all of which claims each
Lender hereby waives.

B. No Responsibility for Certain Matters. No Agent shall be responsible to any
Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability,
collectability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
any other document or instrument furnished in connection herewith or therewith,
or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or
therein or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other
statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents
furnished or made by any Agent to the Lenders or by or on behalf of the Borrower
to any Agent or any Lender in connection with the Loan Documents and the
transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business
affairs of the Group Members or any other Person liable for the payment of any
Obligations or Affiliate of the Group Members or any such Person, nor shall any
Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of
any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in
any of the Loan Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or as to
the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Potential Event
of Default or to make disclosures with respect to the foregoing. Anything
contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative
Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of
outstanding Loans or the component amounts thereof.

C. Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent nor any of its officers, partners,
directors, employees or agents shall be liable to the Lenders for any action
taken or omitted by any Agent under or in connection with any of the Loan
Documents except to the extent determined in a final non-appealable judgment by
a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen from such Agent’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct. Each Agent shall be entitled to refrain from
any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action) in
connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or from the
exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or
thereunder unless and until such Agent shall have received written instructions
in respect thereof from the Requisite Lenders (or such other number of Lenders
as may be required to give such instructions under Section 8.5) and, upon
receipt of such instructions from the Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders,
as the case may be), such Agent shall be entitled to act or (where so
instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or
authority, in accordance with such instructions. Without prejudice to the
generality of the foregoing, (i) each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall
be fully protected in relying, upon any communication, instrument or document
believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the
proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected
in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for the
ParentBorrower and its Subsidiaries or employees of any Agent), accountants,
experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall
have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent
acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting under this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the
Requisite Lenders (or such other number of Lenders as may be required to give
such instructions under Section 8.5).

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

D. Administrative Agent Entitled to Act as Lender. The agency hereby created
shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any
duties or obligations upon, any Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender
hereunder. With respect to its participation in the Loans, each Agent shall have
the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the
same as though it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it
hereunder, and the term “Lender” shall, unless the context clearly otherwise
indicates, include each Agent in its individual capacity. Any Agent and its
Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own Securities of, and
generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other
business with the Group Members or any of their Affiliates as if it were not
performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other
consideration from the Group Members for services in connection with this
Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.

E. Syndication Agents and Co-Documentation Agents. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents and the
Co-Documentation Agents named on the cover page of this Agreement shall not have
any duties or liabilities under this Agreement, except in their capacity, if
any, as a Lender or as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement. Without
limiting the foregoing, no such Person shall have or be deemed to have a
fiduciary relationship with any other Lender.

 

9.3 Representations and Warranties; No Responsibility For Appraisal of
Creditworthiness.

Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent
investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the ParentBorrower and
its Subsidiaries in connection with the making of the Loans hereunder and that
it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness
of the ParentBorrower and its Subsidiaries. No Agent shall have any duty or
responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such
investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of the Lenders or to provide any
Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming
into its possession before the making of any Credit Extension hereunder or at
any time or times thereafter, and no Agent shall have any responsibility with
respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to
the Lenders.

 

9.4 Right to Indemnity.

Each Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify
each Agent, to the extent that such Agent shall not have been reimbursed by the
Borrower, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including counsel fees
and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may
be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in exercising its
powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the
other Loan Documents or otherwise in its capacity as such Agent in any way
relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
(including for any such amounts incurred by or asserted against such Agent in
connection with any dispute between such Agent and any Lender or between two or
more Lenders); provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent any of the foregoing is found in
a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any
indemnity furnished to any Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such
Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may call for additional
indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until
such additional indemnity is furnished.

 

75

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

9.5 Successor Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written
notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower, and the Administrative Agent may
be removed at any time with or without cause by an instrument or concurrent
instruments in writing delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
and signed by the Requisite Lenders. Upon any such notice of resignation or any
such removal, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to select a successor
Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that the Borrower’s consent shall
not be required for the Requisite Lenders to appoint any Lender as the
Administrative Agent or at any time that an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative
Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, that successor
Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative
Agent and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from
its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring or removed
Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as the Administrative
Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent
under this Agreement.

 

9.6 Acknowledgment of Potential Related Transactions.

The Credit Parties hereby acknowledge their understanding that each of the
Arrangers, each of the Agents and each of the Lenders may from time to time
effect transactions (for its own account or the account of customers), and hold
positions in loans or options on loans that may be the subject of this
arrangement. In addition, certain Affiliates of the Lenders are full service
securities firms and as such may from time to time effect transactions (for
their own account or the account of customers), and hold positions, in loans or
options on loans or securities or options on securities that may be the subject
of this arrangement. In addition, each of the Arrangers, each of the Agents and
each of the Lenders may employ the services of its affiliates in providing
certain services hereunder and may exchange with such affiliates information
concerning the Group Members and other companies that may be the subject of this
arrangement.

 

9.7 Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent.

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

 

76

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

9.8 Withholding Tax.

To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may
withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable
income, stamp or other taxes, imposts, duties, charges, or fees imposed, levied,
collected or assessed by any Governmental Authority. Without limiting or
expanding the provisions of Section 2.5, each Lender shall indemnify and hold
harmless the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in respect
thereof within 10 days after written demand therefor, (i) any Non-Excluded Taxes
attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not
already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Non-Excluded Taxes and
without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) and (ii) any and all
Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses
(including, without limitation, fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel
for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative
Agent by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority
as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold any
amounts from payments to or for the account of such Lender for any reason
(including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered
or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the
Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption
from, or reduction of such required withholding ineffective). A certificate as
to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the
Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender
hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all
amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other
instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto against any amount due the
Administrative Agent under this Section 9.8. The agreements in this Section 9.8
shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent,
any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of
the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other
obligations.

“Debt Rating” means the Moody’s Rating or the S&P Rating.

“Moody’s Rating” means, at any time, the then current rating by Moody’s
(including the failure to rate) of the Borrower’s senior, unsecured,
non-credit-enhanced long-term indebtedness for money borrowed.

“S&P Rating” means, at any time, the then current rating by S&P (including the
failure to rate) of the Borrower’s senior, unsecured, non-credit-enhanced
long-term indebtedness for money borrowed.

For purposes of the foregoing, (a) if only one of S&P and Moody’s shall have in
effect such a public debt rating, the Rating Level will be Level 5 (except as a
result of either S&P or Moody’s, as the case may be, ceasing to be in the
business of issuing public debt ratings, in which case the Rating Level shall be
determined by reference to the available rating); (b) if neither S&P nor Moody’s
shall have in effect such a public debt rating, the applicable Rating Level will
be Level 5; (c) if such public debt ratings established by S&P and Moody’s shall
fall within different levels, the public debt rating will be determined by the
higher of the two ratings; provided that in the event that the lower of such
public debt ratings is more than one level below the higher of such public debt
ratings, the public debt rating will be determined based upon the level that is
one level above the lower of such public debt ratings; (d) if any such public
debt rating established by S&P or Moody’s shall be changed, such change shall be
effective as of the date on which such change is first announced publicly by the
rating agency making such change.

EXHIBIT VII

[FORM OF SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE]

SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE

Pursuant to Section 3.2B(ii) of the Term Loan Agreement, the undersigned hereby
certifies, solely in such undersigned’s capacity as [chief financial officer]
[chief accounting officer] [specify other officer with equivalent duties] of the
Borrower, and not individually, as follows:

As of the date hereof, after giving effect to the consummation of the
Transactions, including the making of the Loans under the Term Loan Agreement,
and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of such indebtedness:

 

  (a) The fair value of the assets of the Borrower and its subsidiaries, on a
consolidated basis, exceeds, on a consolidated basis, their debts and
liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise;

 

  (b) The present fair saleable value of the property of the Borrower and its
subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is greater than the amount that will be
required to pay the probable liability, on a consolidated basis, of their debts
and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and
other liabilities become absolute and matured;

 

  (c) The Borrower and its subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are able to
pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such
liabilities become absolute and matured; and

 

  (d) The Borrower and its subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are not
engaged in, and are not about to engage in, business for which they have
unreasonably small capital.

For purposes of this Certificate, the amount of any contingent liability at any
time shall be computed as the amount that would reasonably be expected to become
an actual and matured liability. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Term Loan
Agreement.

[Signature Page Follows]

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

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has executed this Certificate in such
undersigned’s capacity as [chief financial officer] [chief accounting officer]
[specify other officer with equivalent duties] of the Borrower, on behalf of the
Borrower, and not individually, as of the date first stated above.
