  -4-

  (v)	if proceeds of such Delayed Draw Term Loan are to be used to fund a Permitted Acquisition, each of the requirements set forth in the definition of “Permitted Acquisition” with respect to such requested funding of Delayed Draw Term Loans is satisfied (or waived in writing by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion),

  (vi)	Borrower has delivered to each Lender who has requested an original promissory note a promissory note to evidence the Pro Rata Percentage of such Delayed Draw Term Loan to be extended to Borrower by such Lender,

  (vii)	unless the proceeds of such Delayed Draw Term Loan are to be used to finance a Permitted Acquisition, Administrative Agent has received a reasonably detailed budget for the proposed use of such Delayed Draw Term Loan proceeds which also identifies the anticipated date of purchase for each item in such budget, certified by an authorized representative of Borrower,

The Obligors shall take any actions reasonably required by Administrative Agent to ensure and demonstrate that the Liens granted by the Loan Documents continue to be perfected under the UCC or otherwise after giving effect to the making of any Delayed Draw Term Loan.

  	Section 2.03.	Fees.  

  -40-

   

  

  (a)		Unused DDTL Commitment Fee. On each Payment Date following the Closing Date through and including the DDTL Commitment Termination Date, and on the DDTL Commitment Termination Date, Borrower agree to pay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders having a DDTL Commitment, ratably in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Percentages of the DDTL Commitment, the Unused DDTL Commitment Fee for the immediately preceding quarter (or partial quarter, as applicable).

  (b)	Other Amounts. Borrower shall, as and when due and payable, pay to Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, as applicable, such fees as described in the Fee Letter.

  	Section 2.04.	Use of Proceeds.

  	Section 2.05.	Defaulting Lenders.

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

  	(i)	Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 13.04.

  	(ii)	Reallocation of Payments.  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Lenders for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 11 or otherwise), shall be applied at such time or times as follows: first, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement; second, if so determined by the Majority Lenders and Borrower, to be held in a non‐interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; third, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fourth, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (A) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share 

  -41-

   

  

  and (B) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 6 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Term Loans of all non‐Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender.  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

  	(b)	Defaulting Lender Cure.  If Borrower and the Majority Lenders agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as necessary to cause the Term Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentage, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided further that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

  	Section 2.06.	Substitution of Lenders.

  	(a)	Substitution Right.  If any Lender (an “Affected Lender”), (i) becomes a Defaulting Lender or (ii) does not consent to any amendment, waiver or consent to any Loan Document for which the consent of the Majority Lenders is obtained but that requires the consent of other Lenders (a “Non‐Consenting Lender”), then (x) Borrower may elect to pay in full such Affected Lender with respect to all Obligations due to such Affected Lender or (y) either Borrower or Administrative Agent (with the consent of Borrower) shall identify any willing Lender or Affiliate of any Lender or Eligible Transferee (in each case, a “Substitute Lender”) to substitute for such Affected Lender; provided that any substitution of a Non‐Consenting Lender shall occur only with the consent of Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

  	(b)	Procedure.  To substitute such Affected Lender or pay in full all Obligations owed to such Affected Lender, Borrower shall deliver a notice to such Affected Lender.  The effectiveness of such payment or substitution shall be subject to the delivery by Borrower (or, as may be applicable in the case of a substitution, by the Substitute Lender) of (i) payment for the account of such Affected Lender, of, to the extent accrued through, and outstanding on, the effective date for such payment or substitution, all Obligations owing to such Affected Lender (which for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Prepayment Premium) and (ii) in the case of a substitution, an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Substitute Lender, which shall thereunder, among other things, agree to be bound by the terms of the Loan Documents.

  	(c)	Effectiveness.  Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 2.06(a) and (b), Administrative Agent shall record such substitution or payment in the Register, whereupon (i) in the case of any payment in full of an Affected Lender, such Affected Lender’s Commitments shall be terminated and (ii) in the case of any substitution of an Affected Lender, (A) such Affected Lender shall sell and be relieved of, and the Substitute Lender shall purchase and assume, all rights and claims of such Affected 

  -42-

   

  

  Lender under the Loan Documents, except that the Affected Lender shall retain such rights under the Loan Documents that expressly provide that they survive the repayment of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments, (B) such Affected Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” hereunder and such Substitute Lender shall become a “Lender” hereunder and (C) such Affected Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption to evidence such substitution; provided, however, that the failure of any Affected Lender to execute any such Assignment and Assumption shall not render such sale and purchase (or the corresponding assignment) invalid.

  Section 3.	Payments of Principal and Interest.

  	Section 3.01.	Repayment.

  (a)	Repayment.  Commencing on January 1, 2025 and continuing on each Payment Date thereafter through and including the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date, and (ii) the date of the acceleration of the Obligations in accordance with the terms hereof, Borrower shall repay the principal amount of the Term Loans in principal quarterly installments equal to the sum of: (A) the then-applicable Applicable Amortization Percentage multiplied by the sum of the original aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans made on the Closing Date and (B) commencing on the first Business Day of the second full fiscal quarter immediately following the initial funding of a Delayed Draw Term Loan, the then-applicable Applicable Amortization Percentage multiplied by the sum of the original aggregate principal amount of all Delayed Draw Term Loans funded prior to such repayment date, in each case as set forth on the amortization schedule attached as Schedule 3.01(a). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans in full on the Maturity Date to the extent not previously repaid.  Any portion of the Term Loan which are repaid or prepaid by Borrower, in whole or in part, may not be reborrowed.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) such installments shall be reduced in connection with any voluntary or mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans in accordance with Section 3.03; and (ii) each Term Loan, together with all other amounts owed hereunder with respect thereto, shall, in any event, be paid in full no later than the applicable Maturity Date with respect thereto.

  (b)	Repayment Upon Termination; Prepayment Premium.  In the event this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its respective terms by Administrative Agent, Majority Lenders or any Obligor for any reason whatsoever, or upon acceleration of the Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, all Obligations, including all Term Loans and all accrued interest thereon, as well as a Prepayment Premium with respect to the outstanding Term Loan balance, in each case in existence immediately prior to such termination or such acceleration, shall be due and Payable in Full on the effective date of such termination or such acceleration, as the case may be.

  	(c)	Application.  To the extent not previously paid, the principal amount of the Term Loans, together with all other outstanding Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claims has been made), shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

  (d)	Promissory Notes.  If any Lender elects to evidence any Term Loan with promissory notes, Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note in form and substance satisfactory to such Lender to evidence the Pro Rata Percentage of such Term Loan to be extended to Borrower by such Lender.

  	Section 3.02.	Interest.

  	(a)	Interest Generally.  Subject to Section 3.02(e), Borrower agrees to pay to the Lenders interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans and the amount of all other outstanding Obligations, in the case of the Term Loans, for the period from the applicable Borrowing Date and, in the case of any other Obligation, from the date such other Obligation is due and payable, in each case, until paid in full, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Term SOFR plus the Applicable Margin. 

  	(b)	Default Interest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the interest payable pursuant to Section 3.02(a) shall increase immediately after written notice of the same from Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Lenders) to Borrower by 2.00% per annum (such aggregate increased rate, the “Default Rate”); provided that, if Borrower fails to provide notice of a Default as required by Section 8.02(a), the Default Rate shall have automatically applied since the date of the occurrence of such Default.  Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if interest is required to be paid at the Default Rate, it shall be paid entirely in cash.

  	(c)	Interest Payment Dates.  Subject to Section 3.02(e), accrued interest on the Term Loans shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date with respect to the most recently completed Interest Period in cash, and upon the payment or prepayment of the Term Loans (on the principal amount being so paid or prepaid); provided that interest payable at the Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand.

  	(d)	Redemption Price.  For the avoidance of doubt, in the event any Loans shall become due and payable for any reason, interest pursuant to Sections 3.02(a) and (b) shall accrue on the Redemption Price for such Loans from and after the date such Redemption Price is due and payable until paid in full.

  (e)		In connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR, Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  Administrative Agent will promptly notify Borrower and the Lenders of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR.

  	Section 3.03.	Prepayments.

  	(a)	Optional Prepayments.  Upon prior written notice to Administrative Agent delivered pursuant to Section 4.03, Borrower shall have the right to optionally prepay in whole or in part the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans on any Payment Date for the Redemption Price.

  	(b)	Mandatory Prepayments.

  	(i)	Asset Sales.  In the event of any contemplated Asset Sale or series of Asset Sales (other than any Asset Sale permitted under Section 9.09 (other than Section 9.09(g)) yielding Asset Sale Net Proceeds in excess of $2,500,000 in the aggregate, Borrower shall provide written notice of such Asset Sale to Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days of the consummation 

  -44-

   

  

  thereof and, if within such notice period Majority Lenders or Administrative Agent advise Borrower that the Majority Lenders require a prepayment pursuant to this Section 3.03(b)(i), Borrower shall   prepay the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans in an amount equal to the entire amount of the Asset Sale Net Proceeds of such Asset Sale, plus any accrued but unpaid interest and any fees (including any fees payable pursuant to the Fee Letter) then due and owing, plus the Prepayment Premium, if any, applicable to such repayment of the Term Loans, applied as set forth in Section 3.03(b)(iii) below.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at the time of the receipt or application of such Asset Sale Net Proceeds, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Borrower delivers to Administrative Agent a certificate, executed by an Responsible Officer of Borrower, that it intends within three hundred sixty (360) days after receipt thereof to use all of such Asset Sale Net Proceeds either to purchase assets used in the ordinary course of business of the Obligors or to make Capital Expenditures, the Obligors may use such Asset Sale Net Proceeds in the manner set forth in such certificate; provided, however, that, (a) any such Asset Sale Net Proceeds not so used within the period set forth in such certificate shall, on the first Business Day immediately following such 360 day period, be applied as a prepayment in accordance with Section 3.03(b)(iii) below and (b) any assets so acquired shall be subject to the security interests under the Loan Documents with not less than the same priority as the assets subject to such Asset Sale. 

  	(ii)	Consolidated Excess Cash Flow.  Within 5 Business Days after delivery to Administrative Agent of audited annual financial statements pursuant to Section 8.01(b) and the Compliance Certificate pursuant to Section 8.01(d), commencing with the delivery to Administrative Agent of the financial statements for Borrower’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 or, if such financial statements and Compliance Certificate are not delivered to Administrative Agent on the date such financial statements and Compliance Certificate are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 8.01(b) and Section 8.01(d), respectively, within 5 Business Days after the date such financial statements and Compliance Certificate were required to be delivered to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.01(b) and Section 8.01(d), respectively, Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan in an amount equal to (1) the ECF Percentage of the Consolidated Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year, minus (2) the aggregate amount of all voluntary prepayments paid in respect of the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan made during such fiscal year.  Each such prepayment of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow shall be supported with a written calculation in reasonable detail of the Consolidated Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year and accompanied by a certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent executed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower certifying the manner in which Consolidated Excess Cash Flow and the resulting prepayment were calculated and shall be applied as set forth in Section 3.03(b)(iii) below.

  (iii)	Each prepayment pursuant to Sections 3.03(b)(i) and (ii) shall be applied,

  	(A)	first, in reduction of Borrower’s obligation to pay any unpaid interest and any fees then due and owing;

  	(B)	second, in reduction of Borrower’s obligation to pay any Claims or Losses referred to in Section 13.03 then due and owing;

  -45-

   

  

  	(C)	third, in reduction of Borrower’s obligation to pay any amounts due and owing on account of the unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans;

  	(D)	fourth, in reduction of any other Obligation then due and owing; and

  	(E)	fifth, to Borrower or such other Persons as may lawfully be entitled to or directed by Borrower to receive the remainder.

  Section 3.04.	Benchmark Replacement Setting.  

  (a)	Benchmark Replacement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Administrative Agent may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all affected Lenders and Borrower so long as Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders.  No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 3.04(a) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date. 

  (b)	Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.

  -46-

   

  

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

  (e)	Benchmark Unavailability Period.  Upon Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Loan to be made during any Benchmark Unavailability Period.

  	(b)	Application of Payments.  Each Obligor shall, at the time of making each payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, specify to Administrative Agent the amounts payable by such Obligor hereunder to which such payment is to be applied (and, in the event that Obligors fail to so specify, the Lenders may apply such payment in the manner they determine to be appropriate to satisfy the Obligations).

  	(c)	Non‐Business Days.  If the due date of any payment under this Agreement (other than of principal of or interest on the Term Loans) would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.

  	Section 4.02.	Computations.  All computations of interest and fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed during the period for which payable.

Each notice of optional prepayment shall be effective only if received by Administrative Agent not later than 4:00 p.m.  (Eastern Time) on the date five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed to in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion) prior to the date of prepayment.  Each notice of optional prepayment shall specify the amount to be prepaid and the date of prepayment.  A notice of optional prepayment may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, indentures or similar agreements or other transactions, in which case such notice may be revoked by Borrower (by notice to Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified prepayment date) if such condition is not satisfied (or waived by Borrower in its sole discretion) and/or tolled until the date on which such condition is satisfied (or waived) and/or rescinded at any time by Borrower if Borrower determines in its sole discretion that any or all of such conditions will not be satisfied (or waived).

  	Section 4.04.	Set‐Off

  	(a)	Set‐Off Generally.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each of Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of their Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by Administrative Agent, any Lender and any of their Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Obligor against any and all of the Obligations, whether or not such Person shall have made any demand and although such obligations may be unmatured.  Administrative Agent and each Lender agree promptly to notify Borrower after any such set‐off and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set‐off and application.  The rights of Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of their Affiliates under this Section 4.04 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set‐off) that such Persons may have.

  	(b)	Exercise of Rights Not Required.  Nothing contained herein shall require Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of such Person to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of any Obligor.

  	Section 4.05.	Pro Rata Treatment (a) Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such Borrowing available to Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to Administrative Agent on such date in accordance with Section 2, and Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount.  If such amount is not in fact made available to Administrative Agent by the required time on the applicable Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender and Borrower severally agree to pay to Administrative Agent forthwith, on demand, such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date on which such amount is made available to Borrower but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at a rate equal to the greater of (A) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (B) a rate reasonably determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.  If Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to Borrower the amount of such interest paid by Borrower for such period.  If such Lender pays its share of the applicable borrowing to Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute

  such Lender’s Term Loan included in such borrowing.  Any payment by Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to Administrative Agent. Nothing in this Section 4.05 or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including Sections 2.01 or 2.02 or the remaining provisions of Section 4.05, shall be deemed to require Administrative Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its applicable Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Administrative Agent or Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

  	(b)	Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due.  In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of Administrative Agent or any Lender against any Obligor.

  	(c)	If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set‐off, or otherwise) on account of the principal of or interest on any Loan made by it or other obligations hereunder, as applicable (other than pursuant to a provision hereof providing for non‐pro rata treatment), in excess of its Pro Rata Percentage, of such payment on account of the Term Loans, such Lender shall (i) notify Administrative Agent of the receipt of such payment, and (ii) within five (5) Business Days of such receipt purchase (for cash at face value) from the other Lenders, as applicable (directly or through Administrative Agent), without recourse, such participations in the Term Loans made by them or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of the other Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Percentages, as applicable; provided, however, that (A) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest and (B) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to Borrower or any of its Affiliates (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).  Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 4.05(c) may exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set‐off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation.  No documentation other than notices and the like referred to in this Section 4.05(c) shall be required to implement the terms of this Section 4.05(c).  Administrative Agent shall keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased pursuant to this Section 4.05(c) and shall in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchase.  Borrower consents on behalf of itself and each other Obligor to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may 

  -49-

   

  

  exercise against each Obligor rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Obligor in the amount of such participation.

  Section 5.	Yield Protection, Etc.

  	Section 5.01.	Additional Costs.

  	(a)	Change in Requirements of Law Generally.  If, on or after the Closing Date, the adoption of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any court or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any of the Lenders (or its lending office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit, contribution, insurance assessment or similar requirement, in each case that becomes effective after the Closing Date, against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, a Lender (or its lending office) or shall impose on a Lender (or its lending office) any other condition affecting the Term Loans or the Commitment, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining the Term Loans, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and (iii) Connection Income Taxes), then Borrower shall pay to such Lender on demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction.

  	(b)	Change in Capital Requirements.  If a Lender shall have determined that, on or after the Closing Date, the adoption of any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, in each case that becomes effective after the Closing Date, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of a Lender (or its parent) as a consequence of a Lender’s obligations hereunder or the Term Loans to a level below that which a Lender (or its parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive by an amount reasonably deemed by it to be material, then Borrower shall pay to such Lender on demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender (or its parent) for such reduction.

  	(c)	Notification by Lender.  Each Lender (directly or through Administrative Agent) will promptly notify Borrower of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the Closing Date, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 5.01.  Before giving any such notice pursuant to this Section 5.01(c) such Lender shall designate a different lending office if such designation (x) will, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and (y) will not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.  A certificate of the Lender claiming compensation under this Section 5.01, setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder, shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower in the absence of manifest error.

  -50-

   

  

  	(d)	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Dodd‐Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to constitute a change in Requirements of Law for all purposes of this Section 5.01, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

  	Section 5.02.	Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that on or after the Closing Date the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by any competent Governmental Authority shall make it unlawful for a Lender or its lending office to make or maintain the Term Loans (and, in the opinion of such Lender, the designation of a different lending office would either not avoid such unlawfulness or would be disadvantageous to such Lender), then such Lender shall promptly notify Borrower thereof following which (a) the Lender’s Commitment shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain the Term Loans hereunder and (b) if such Requirement of Law shall so mandate, the Term Loans shall be prepaid by Borrower on or before such date as shall be mandated by such Requirement of Law in an amount equal to the Redemption Price applicable on the date of such prepayment.

  	Section 5.03.	Taxes.

  (a)	Defined Terms.  For purposes of this Section, the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA.

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

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

  (d)	Indemnification by Borrower.  Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or 

  -51-

   

  

  liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

  (e)	Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that Borrower has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.05(f) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

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

  (g)	Status of Lenders.  (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in paragraphs (A), (B) and (D) of Section 5.03(g)(ii)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

  (ii)	Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Borrower is a U.S. Person,

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

  -52-

   

  

  (B)	any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

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

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

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

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

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

  -53-

   

  

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

  Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

  (h)	Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

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

  (j)		Mitigation Obligations.  If Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.01 or this Section 5.03, then such Lender shall (at the request of Borrower) use commercially reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to 

  -54-

   

  

  assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates if, in the sole reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment and delegation would (i) eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.01 or this Section 5.03, as the case may be, in the future, (ii) not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and (iii) not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment and delegation.

  	Section 6.01.	Conditions to Initial Funding.

  	Section 8.12.	Certain Obligations Respecting Subsidiaries; Further Assurances.

  	(a)	Subsidiary Guarantors.  Such Obligor will take such action, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to take such action, from time to time as shall be necessary to ensure that all Subsidiaries (other than (x) any Excluded Foreign Subsidiary not required to be a Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 8.12(b)(i), and any Domestic Subsidiary owned by such Excluded Foreign Subsidiary, and (y) any Healthcare Subsidiary) are “Subsidiary Guarantors” hereunder.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Parent or any of its Subsidiaries shall form or acquire any new Subsidiary (other than (x) any Excluded Foreign Subsidiary not required to be a Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 8.12(b)(i), and any Domestic Subsidiary owned by such Excluded Foreign Subsidiary, and (y) any Healthcare Subsidiary), such Obligor and its Subsidiaries shall within 30 days of forming or acquiring such new Subsidiary:

  	(i)	cause such new Subsidiary to become a “Subsidiary Guarantor” hereunder, and a “Grantor” under the Security Agreement, pursuant to a Guarantee Assumption Agreement;

  	(ii)	take such action or cause such Subsidiary to take such action (including delivering such shares of stock together with undated transfer powers executed in blank) as shall be necessary to create and perfect valid and enforceable first priority (subject to Permitted Liens) Liens on substantially all of the property of such new Subsidiary as collateral security for the obligations of such new Subsidiary hereunder; and

(i) In the event that, at any time, Excluded Foreign Subsidiaries have, in the aggregate, (A) total revenues constituting 5% or more of the total revenues of Parent and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, or (B) total assets constituting 5% or more of the total assets of Parent and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, promptly (and, in any event, within 30 days after such time) Obligors shall cause one or more of such Excluded Foreign Subsidiaries, including any Domestic Subsidiary owned by such Excluded Foreign Subsidiary, to become Subsidiary Guarantors in the manner set forth in Section 8.12(a), such that, after such Subsidiaries become Subsidiary Guarantors, the 

  -77-

   

  

  non‐guarantor Excluded Foreign Subsidiaries in the aggregate shall cease to have revenues or assets, as applicable, that meet the thresholds set forth in clauses (A) and (B) above; provided that no Excluded Foreign Subsidiary, or any Domestic Subsidiary owned by such Excluded Foreign Subsidiary, shall be required to become a Subsidiary Guarantor if doing so would result in material adverse tax consequences for Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

  	(ii)	With respect to each First‐Tier Foreign Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor, the applicable Obligor shall grant a security interest and Lien in 65% of each class of voting Equity Interest and 100% of all other Equity Interests in such First‐Tier Foreign Subsidiaries in favor of the Secured Parties as Collateral for the Obligations.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any Obligor shall form or acquire any new Subsidiary that is a First‐Tier Foreign Subsidiary, such Obligor will promptly and in any event within 30 days of the formation or acquisition of such Subsidiary (or such longer time as consented to by Administrative Agent in writing) grant a security interest and Lien in 65% of each class of voting Equity Interests and 100% of all other Equity Interests of such Subsidiary in favor of the Secured Parties as Collateral for the Obligations (provided that in the case of a First‐Tier Foreign Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor, such Obligor shall grant a security interest and Lien in 100% of the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary in favor of the Secured Parties as Collateral for the Obligations), including entering into any necessary local law security documents and delivery of certificated securities issued by such First‐Tier Foreign Subsidiary as required by this Agreement or the Security Agreement.

  	(iii)	For the purposes of this Section 8.12(b), the determination of whether a “material adverse tax consequence” shall be deemed to result from (x) any Foreign Subsidiary, or any Domestic Subsidiary owned by an Excluded Foreign Subsidiary, becoming a Subsidiary Guarantor, or (y) any Obligor granting a perfected first priority security interest and Lien in more than 65% of the voting stock of a First‐Tier Foreign Subsidiary, shall be made by Majority Lenders in their sole but reasonable discretion, following consultation with Parent.

  	(c)	Further Assurances.  Such Obligor will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, take such action from time to time as shall reasonably be requested by Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders to effectuate the purposes and objectives of this Agreement.

  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Obligor will, and will cause each Person that is required to be a Subsidiary Guarantor to, take such action from time to time (including executing and delivering such assignments, security agreements, control agreements and other instruments) as shall be reasonably requested by Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders to create, in favor of the Secured Parties, perfected security interests and Liens in substantially all of the property of such Obligor as collateral security for the Obligations; provided that any such security interest or Lien shall be subject to the relevant requirements and exclusions of the Security Documents.

  	Section 8.13.	[Reserved].

  	Section 8.14.	Intellectual Property.  In the event that the Obligors acquire Obligor Intellectual Property during the term of this Agreement, then the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically apply thereto and any such Obligor Intellectual Property shall automatically constitute part of the Collateral under the Security Documents, without further action by any party, in each case from and after the date of such acquisition (except that any representations or warranties of any Obligor shall apply to any such Obligor 

  -78-

   

  

  Intellectual Property only from and after the date, if any, subsequent to such acquisition that such representations and warranties are brought down or made anew as provided herein).

Under the Loan Documents, Administrative Agent (i) is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders (except to the limited extent provided in Section 12.11), with duties that are entirely administrative in nature, notwithstanding the use of the defined term “Administrative Agent”, the terms “agent”, “administrative agent” and “collateral agent” and similar terms in any Loan Document to refer to Administrative Agent, which terms are used for title purposes only, (ii) is not assuming any obligation under any Loan Document other than as expressly set forth therein or any role as agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender or any other Secured Party and (iii) shall have no implied functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or other liabilities under any Loan Document, and each Lender hereby waives and agrees not to assert any claim against Administrative Agent based on the roles, duties and legal relationships expressly disclaimed in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii).

  	Section 12.02.	Binding Effect.  Each Lender agrees that (i) any action taken by Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders (or, if expressly required hereby, a greater proportion of the Lenders) in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, (ii) any action taken by Administrative Agent in reliance upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion) and (iii) the exercise by Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Secured Parties.

  	Section 12.03.	Use of Discretion.

  	(a)	No Action without Instructions.  Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take, or to omit to take, any action, including with respect to enforcement or collection, except any action it is required to take or omit to take (i) under any Loan Document or (ii) pursuant to instructions from the Majority Lenders (or, where expressly required by the terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders).

  	(b)	Right Not to Follow Certain Instructions.  Notwithstanding Section 12.03(a), Administrative Agent shall not be required to take, or to omit to take, any action (i) unless, upon demand, Administrative Agent receives an indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders (or, to the extent applicable and acceptable to Administrative Agent, any other Secured Party) against all liabilities that, by reason of such action or omission, may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent or any Related Person thereof or (ii) that is, in the opinion of Administrative Agent or its counsel, contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Requirement of Law.

  	Section 12.04.	Delegation of Rights and Duties.  Administrative Agent may, upon any term or condition it specifies, delegate or exercise any of its rights, powers and remedies under, and delegate or perform any of its duties or any other action with respect to, any Loan Document by or through or to any trustee, co‐agent, sub‐agent, employee, attorney‐in‐fact and any other Person (including any other Secured Party).  Any such Person shall benefit from this Section 12 to the extent provided by Administrative Agent.  Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub‐agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub‐agent.  The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such trustee, co‐agent, sub‐agent, employee, attorney‐in‐fact and any other Person, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Credit Facility as well as activities as Administrative Agent.  

  	Section 12.05.	Reliance and Liability.  (a) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon legal counsel, independent public accountants and experts selected by Administrative Agent, and shall not be liable to Lenders for any action taken or not taken in good faith based upon the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.  In addition, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, facsimile, statement, order or other document believed by Administrative Agent in good faith to be genuine and correct, and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons.  Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in taking or refusing to take any action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents unless Administrative Agent (a) receives the advice or consent of Lenders or Majority Lenders, as the case may be, in a manner that Administrative Agent deems appropriate, or (b) is indemnified by Lenders to Administrative Agent’s satisfaction against any and all liability, cost and expense which may be incurred by Administrative Agent by reason of taking or refusing to take any such action.  Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of all Lenders or Majority Lenders, as the case may be, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all Lenders.

  -102-

   

  

  	(b)	None of Administrative Agent and its Related Persons shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with any Loan Document, and each Lender and each Obligor hereby waives and shall not assert any right, claim or cause of action based thereon, except to the extent of liabilities resulting primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent or, as the case may be, such Related Person (each as determined in a final, non‐appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction) in connection with the duties expressly set forth herein.  Without limiting the foregoing, Administrative Agent:

  	(i)	shall not be responsible or otherwise incur liability for any action or omission taken in reliance upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders or for the actions or omissions of any of its Related Persons selected with reasonable care (other than employees, officers and directors of Administrative Agent, when acting on behalf of Administrative Agent);

  	(ii)	shall not be responsible to any Secured Party for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, effectiveness, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the attachment, perfection or priority of any Lien created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document;

  	(iii)	makes no warranty or representation, and shall not be responsible, to any Secured Party for any statement, document, information, representation or warranty made or furnished by or on behalf of any Related Person, in or in connection with any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein, whether or not transmitted by Administrative Agent, including as to completeness, accuracy, scope or adequacy thereof, or for the scope, nature or results of any due diligence performed by Administrative Agent in connection with the Loan Documents; and

  	(iv)	shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any provision of any Loan Document, whether any condition set forth in any Loan Document is satisfied or waived, as to the financial condition of any Obligor or as to the existence or continuation or possible occurrence or continuation of any Default or Event of Default and shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of such occurrence or continuation unless it has received a notice from Borrower or any Lender describing such Default or Event of Default clearly labeled “notice of default” (in which case Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice of such receipt to all Lenders);

  and, for each of the items set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, each Lender and each Obligor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any right, claim or cause of action it might have against Administrative Agent based thereon.

  	Section 12.06.	Administrative Agent Individually.  Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans and other extensions of credit to, acquire Equity Interests of, engage in any kind of business with, any Obligor or Affiliate thereof as though it were not acting Administrative Agent and may receive separate fees and other payments therefor.  To the extent Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates makes any Loan or otherwise becomes a Lender hereunder, it shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and shall be subject to the same obligations and liabilities as any other Lender and the terms “Lender”, “Majority Lender”, and any similar terms shall, except where otherwise expressly provided 

  -103-

   

  

  in any Loan Document, include Administrative Agent or such Affiliate, as the case may be, in its individual capacity as Lender or as one of the Majority Lenders, respectively.

  	Section 12.07.	Lender Credit Decision.  Each Lender acknowledges that it shall, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their Related Persons or upon any document solely or in part because such document was transmitted by Administrative Agent or any of its Related Persons, conduct its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor and make and continue to make its own credit decisions in connection with entering into, and taking or not taking any action under, any Loan Document or with respect to any transaction contemplated in any Loan Document, in each case based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate.  Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither Administrative Agent, nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents, has made any representation or warranty to such Lender regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the financial condition of the Obligors, and such Lender agrees that no action taken by Administrative Agent hereafter, including any review of the business or financial affairs of the Obligors, shall be deemed to constitute a representation or warranty by Administrative Agent to any Lender.  

  	Section 12.08.	Expenses; Indemnities.  (a) Each Lender agrees to reimburse Administrative Agent and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Obligor) promptly upon demand for such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of any costs and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of financial, legal and other advisors and Other Taxes paid in the name of, or on behalf of, any Obligor) that may be incurred by Administrative Agent or any of its Related Persons in connection with the preparation, syndication, execution, delivery, administration, modification, consent, waiver or enforcement (whether through negotiations, through any work‐out, bankruptcy, restructuring or other legal or other proceeding or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of its rights or responsibilities under, any Loan Document.

  	(b)	Each Lender further agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Obligor), from and against such Lender’s aggregate Pro Rata Percentage of the liabilities (including Taxes, interests and penalties imposed for not properly withholding or backup withholding on payments made to on or for the account of any Lender) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent or any of its Related Persons in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of any Loan Document, any related document or any other act, event or transaction related, contemplated in or attendant to any such document, or, in each case, any action taken or omitted to be taken by Administrative Agent or any of its Related Persons under or with respect to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable to Administrative Agent or any of its Related Persons to the extent such liability is found in a final, non‐appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Administrative Agent’s or such Related Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

  	Section 12.09.	Resignation of Administrative Agent.  (a) Administrative Agent may resign at any time by delivering notice of such resignation to the Lenders and Borrower, effective on the date set forth in such notice or, if no such date is set forth therein, upon the date such notice shall be effective.  If Administrative Agent delivers any such notice, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent.  If, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent having given notice of resignation, no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed by the Majority Lenders that 

  -104-

   

  

  has accepted such appointment, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent from among the Lenders.  Each appointment under this Section 12.09(a) shall be subject to the prior consent of Borrower, which may not be unreasonably withheld but shall not be required during the continuance of an Event of Default.

  	(b)	Effective immediately upon its resignation, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents, (ii) the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent until a successor Administrative Agent shall have accepted a valid appointment hereunder, (iii) the retiring Administrative Agent and its Related Persons shall no longer have the benefit of any provision of any Loan Document other than with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken while such retiring Administrative Agent was, or because such Administrative Agent had been, validly acting as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and (iv) subject to its rights under Section 12.03, the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Administrative Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.  Effective immediately upon its acceptance of a valid appointment as Administrative Agent, a successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.

  	Section 12.10.	Release of Collateral or Guarantors.  Each Lender hereby consents to the release and hereby directs Administrative Agent to release (or, in the case of Section 12.10(b)(ii), release or subordinate) the following:

  	(a)	any Subsidiary of Parent from its guaranty of any Obligation of any Obligor if all of the Equity Interests in such Subsidiary owned by any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries are disposed of in an Asset Sale permitted under the Loan Documents (including pursuant to a waiver or consent), to the extent that, after giving effect to such Asset Sale, such Subsidiary would not be required to guaranty any Obligations pursuant to Section 8.12; and

  	(b)	any Lien held by Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties against (i) any Collateral that is disposed of by an Obligor in an Asset Sale permitted by the Loan Documents (including pursuant to a valid waiver or consent), to the extent all Liens required to be granted in such Collateral pursuant to Section 8.12 after giving effect to such Asset Sale have been granted, (ii) any property subject to a Lien described in Section 9.02(d) and (iii) all of the Collateral and all Obligors, upon (A) termination of the Commitments and (B) payment and satisfaction in full of all Loans and all other Obligations that Administrative Agent has been notified in writing are then due and payable.

  Each Lender hereby directs Administrative Agent, and Administrative Agent hereby agrees, upon receipt of reasonable advance notice from Borrower, to execute and deliver or file such documents and to perform other actions reasonably necessary to release the guaranties and Liens when and as directed in this Section 12.10.

  	Section 12.11.	Additional Secured Parties.  The benefit of the provisions of the Loan Documents directly relating to the Collateral or any Lien granted thereunder shall extend to and be available to any Secured Party that is not a Lender as long as, by accepting such benefits, such Secured Party agrees, as among Administrative Agent and all other Secured Parties, that such Secured Party is bound by (and, if 

  -105-

   

  

  requested by Administrative Agent, shall confirm such agreement in a writing in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent) this Section 12 and the decisions and actions of Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders (or, where expressly required by the terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders) to the same extent a Lender is bound; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) such Secured Party shall be bound by Section 12.08 only to the extent of liabilities, costs and expenses with respect to or otherwise relating to the Collateral held for the benefit of such Secured Party, in which case the obligations of such Secured Party thereunder shall not be limited by any concept of Pro Rata Percentage or similar concept, (b) each of Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to act at its sole discretion, without regard to the interest of such Secured Party, regardless of whether any Obligation to such Secured Party thereafter remains outstanding, is deprived of the benefit of the Collateral, becomes unsecured or is otherwise affected or put in jeopardy thereby, and without any duty or liability to such Secured Party or any such Obligation and (c) such Secured Party shall not have any right to be notified of, consent to, direct, require or be heard with respect to, any action taken or omitted in respect of the Collateral or under any Loan Document.

  	Section 12.12.	Recovery of Erroneous Payments. 

  (a) 	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if all or any part of any payment or other distribution of funds by or on behalf of Administrative Agent or its Affiliate to any Obligor, Lender or other recipient (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) is determined by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion to have been made in error, whether known to the recipient or not, or if such recipient is not otherwise entitled to receive such payment or distribution under the provisions of this Agreement at such time and in such amount from Administrative Agent as determined by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion (any such payment or other distribution of funds, an “Erroneous Payment”), then such Obligor, Lender or other recipient shall on demand repay to Administrative Agent (promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days following such demand) the portion of such Erroneous Payment that was made in error (or otherwise not intended (as determined by Administrative Agent) to be received) in the amount made available by Administrative Agent or its Affiliate to such Obligor, Lender or other recipient, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount was made available by Administrative Agent or its Affiliate to such Obligor, Lender or other recipient to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the greater of (x) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (y) a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. Each Obligor, Lender and other potential recipient of an Erroneous Payment hereunder waives any claim of discharge for value and any other claim of entitlement to, or in respect of, any Erroneous Payment. Any determination by Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, that all or a portion of any distribution or payment to any Obligor, Lender or other recipient was an Erroneous Payment shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Obligor, Lender or other recipient of an Erroneous Payment hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Obligor, Lender or other recipient under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by Administrative Agent to such Obligor, Lender or other recipient from any source, against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this subsection (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.  

  (b)	 Each Obligor, Lender or other potential recipient hereby agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from Administrative Agent or its Affiliate (i) that is in a different amount 

  -106-

   

  

  than, or on a different date from, that specified in a written notice sent by Administrative Agent or its Affiliate with respect to such payment or (ii) that was not preceded or accompanied by a written notice, such Obligor, Lender or other recipient shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such payment. Each Obligor, Lender or other recipient agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent or received in error, such Obligor, Lender or other recipient shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of such occurrence. Administrative Agent shall inform each recipient promptly upon determining that any payment made to such recipient comprised, in whole or in part, an Erroneous Payment.

  (c)	 Borrower and each other Obligor hereby agrees that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by Borrower or any other Obligor.  If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the making of an Erroneous Payment is deemed, as a matter of law or otherwise, to pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any portion of the Obligations, such portion shall be deemed reinstated upon the sending of a notice of demand by Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (a) above. Each party’s obligations under this Section 12.12 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent or the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.

  (d)	 To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Obligor, Lender or other recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

  (e)	 The parties hereto agree that Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of any applicable Obligor, Lender or other recipient of an Erroneous Payment under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment to the extent not repaid by such Obligor, Lender or other recipient.

  Section 12.13.		Certain ERISA Matters.  

  (a)	 Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

  (i)		such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise for purposes of Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) of one or more Employee Benefit Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Term Loans, the Commitments or this Agreement,

  (ii)	the prohibited transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective 

  -107-

   

  

  investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable so as to exempt from the prohibitions of Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code such Lender's entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Term Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement,

  (iii)	(A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Term Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Term Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84- 14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Term Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement, or

  (iv)	such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender. 

  (b) 	In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower, that Administrative Agent is not a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Term Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

  Section 12.14.	 	Privacy Laws.  Administrative Agent acknowledges and agrees that Borrower may be required to adhere to certain restrictions and conditions regarding the use and/or disclosure of patient health information and personal information to which Administrative Agent may have access under this Agreement in order to comply with federal and state laws and/or regulations governing the privacy, security, integrity, and confidentiality of patient health information or personal information, including without limitation, regulations, standards and rules promulgated under HIPAA (collectively, the “Privacy Laws”).  Administrative Agent agrees to maintain the privacy, security, and confidentiality of patient health information and personal information obtained as a result of this Agreement in accordance with the Privacy Laws and shall not obtain, use, disclose or release patient health information or personal information except as specifically authorized herein or as required by the Privacy Laws.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Obligors shall not be required to disclose to Administrative Agent or any Lender any patient health information or personal information in connection with the administration of the Term Loans or otherwise in connection with the Loan Documents, it being acknowledged by the parties hereto that disclosure of patient health information or personal information may not be permitted, or may otherwise be restricted, by the Privacy Laws.

  -108-

   

  

  Section 12.15.	Events of Default.   Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder (other than a payment Event of Default under Section 11.01(a)) unless Administrative Agent has received written notice from the Obligors or a Lender describing such Default or Event of Default with specificity.  In the event that Administrative Agent receives such a notice, Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to all Lenders.  Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by Lenders or Majority Lenders, as the case may be, provided that (a) if appropriate, Administrative Agent may require indemnification from Lenders under Section 12.08 prior to taking such action, (b) under no circumstances shall Administrative Agent have an obligation to take any action that Administrative Agent believes in good faith would violate any Law or any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and (c) unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received direction from Lenders or Majority Lenders, as the case may be, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action or refrain from taking action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as Administrative Agent shall deem advisable and in the best interests of Lenders.

  Section 13.	Miscellaneous.

  	Section 13.01.	No Waiver.  No failure on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under any Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

  	Section 13.02.	Notices.  All notices, requests, instructions, directions and other communications provided for herein (including any modifications of, or waivers, requests or consents under, this Agreement) shall be given or made in writing (including prepaid overnight courier, email or similar writing) delivered, if to Borrower, Parent, another Obligor, Administrative Agent or any Lender, to its address specified on Schedule 13.02 attached hereto or its Guarantee Assumption Agreement, as the case may be, or at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the other parties (or, in the case of any such Lender who becomes a Lender after the date hereof, in an assignment agreement or in a notice delivered to Borrower and Administrative Agent by the assignee Lender forthwith upon such assignment).  Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective if given by mail, prepaid overnight courier or any other means, when received or when receipt is refused at the applicable address specified by this Section 13.02.

Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse (i) Administrative Agent and the Lenders for all of their reasonable and documented out‐of‐pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of Chapman and Cutler LLP, special counsel to Administrative Agent and the Lenders) in connection with (x) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the making of the Term Loans (exclusive of post‐closing costs), (y) post‐closing costs and (z) the negotiation or preparation of any modification, supplement or waiver of any of the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (whether or not consummated) and (ii) Administrative Agent and the Lenders for all of their out‐of‐pocket costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of legal counsel) in connection with any enforcement or collection proceedings resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default.

  	(b)	Indemnification.  Borrower hereby indemnifies Administrative Agent, each Lender, their respective Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys, agents, advisors and controlling parties (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against, and agrees to hold them harmless against, any and all Claims and Losses of any kind (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel), joint or several, that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any use made or proposed to be made with the proceeds of the Term Loans, and any claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding or the preparation of any defense with respect thereto arising out of or in connection with or relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnified Party is a party to an actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based in contract, tort or any other theory, and whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by Borrower, any of its shareholders or creditors, and whether or not the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6 are satisfied or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, except to the extent such Claim or Loss (x) is found in a final, non‐appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, (y) arose from a material breach of such Indemnified Party’s obligations under any Loan Document (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non‐appealable judgment) or (z) arose from any claim, action, suit, inquiry, litigation, investigation or proceeding that does not involve an act or omission of Borrower or any of its Affiliates and is brought by an Indemnified Party against another Indemnified Party (other than any claim, actions, suits, inquiries, litigation, investigation or proceeding against Administrative Agent in its capacity as such).  No Obligor shall assert any claim against any Indemnified Party, on any theory of liability, for consequential, indirect, special or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Term Loans.  Borrower, Parent, their Subsidiaries and Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys, agents, advisors and controlling parties are each sometimes referred to in this Agreement as a “Borrower Party.”  No Lender shall assert any claim against any Borrower Party, on any theory of liability, for consequential, indirect, special or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of the 

  -110-

   

  

  transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Term Loans. This Section 13.03(b) shall not apply with respect to any Indemnified Taxes, which are covered by Section 5.03(d), or any Excluded Taxes.  

  	Section 13.04.	Amendments, Etc.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any provision of this Agreement may be modified or supplemented only by an instrument in writing signed by Borrower and the Majority Lenders (or Administrative Agent on behalf of such Majority Lenders); provided however, that no such amendment, discharge, termination, waiver or other modification shall, (a) unless signed by each Lender directly affected thereby, amend or waive Borrower’s compliance with any term or provision of this Agreement, if the effect of such amendment or waiver would be to (i) reduce the principal of, or rate of interest on, the Term Loans (other than the application of the Default Rate and with respect to any mandatory prepayments under Section 3.02(b)), (ii) reduce or waive the payment of any fee in which all Lenders share hereunder or (iii) extend the Maturity Date or the date fixed for payment of any installment of principal thereof or any interest or fee or other amounts payable hereunder; or (b) unless signed by each Lender, (i) alter or amend the definition of “Majority Lenders”, (ii) except as otherwise expressly permitted or required hereunder, release all or substantially all of the Collateral or Guarantees in any transaction or series of related transactions; or (iii) amend any provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder.  No amendment, waiver or consent shall affect the rights or duties under any Loan Document of, or any payment to, Administrative Agent (or otherwise modify any provision of Section 12 or the application thereof) unless in writing and signed by Administrative Agent in addition to any signature otherwise required.  

  	Administrative Agent shall have the right in its sole discretion to (i) release any Lien on any property granted to or held by Administrative Agent under any Loan Document as set forth in Section 12.10; (ii) subordinate any Lien on any Property granted to or held by Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such Property securing Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 9.01(h); and (iii) amend any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in order to cure any error, ambiguity, defect or inconsistency set forth therein.  In the event Administrative Agent or Majority Lenders terminate this Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof, Administrative Agent and Majority Lenders agree to cease making additional loans or advances upon the effective date of termination, except for expenses which Administrative Agent in its sole discretion determines are reasonably required to preserve, protect or realize upon the Collateral.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended, and a change in the principal of, or interest on, the Term Loans made by such Defaulting Lender and any date fixed for payment of principal of, or interest on, the Term Loans made by such Defaulting Lender may not be made without the consent of such Lender.

  	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Defaulting Lender shall not have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its 

  -111-

   

  

  terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) by an agreement in writing entered into by Borrower, the Majority Lenders and Administrative Agent if (i) by the terms of such agreement, the Commitments of each Lender not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall terminate upon the effectiveness of such amendment and (ii) at the time such amendment becomes effective, each Lender not consenting thereto receives payment in full of all amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement.

  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue or rollover all or a portion of its Loans in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by Borrower, Administrative Agent and such Lender.

  	Section 13.05.	Successors and Assigns.

  	(a)	General.  The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of the Lenders.  Any of the Lenders may assign or otherwise transfer any of their rights or obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents to an assignee (i) in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.05(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.05(e) or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 13.05(g).  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 13.05(e) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnified Parties) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

  	(b)	Assignments by Lenders.  Any of the Lenders may, with the prior written consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), at any time assign to one or more Eligible Transferees all or a portion of their rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Commitment and the Term Loans at the time owing to it); provided, however, that (i) no such assignment shall be made to Borrower, an Affiliate of Borrower, or any employees or directors of Borrower at any time, (ii) the consent of Borrower shall not be required at any time any Specified Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (iii) the consent of Borrower to an assignment to any one or more Eligible Transferees will be deemed to have been given if Borrower has not responded within three (3) Business Days after the delivery of any request for such consent and (iv) the consent of Borrower shall not be required (A) for any assignment to any Approved Fund, any Affiliate of any Lender or Administrative Agent and (B) for any assignment in connection with a distribution of assets in connection with a liquidation of a Lender.  Subject to the recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 13.05(d), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and correspondingly the assigning Lender shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and 

  -112-

   

  

  Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) and the other Loan Documents but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 5 and Section 13.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 13.05(b) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 13.05(e). On the Syndication Date, Oxford and its Affiliates (including, without limitation, its Approved Funds) shall have at such time in excess of 50% of the aggregate Commitments then in effect and the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans. For purposes of this Section 13.05(b), “Syndication Date” means the earlier of the date on which Oxford notifies Borrower in writing that it has completed primary post-closing syndication efforts for the Commitments and Term Loans hereunder and the day that is 90 days following the Closing Date.  

  	(c)	Amendments to Loan Documents.  Each of Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Obligors agrees to enter into such amendments to the Loan Documents, and such additional Security Documents and other instruments and agreements, in each case in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Obligors, as shall reasonably be necessary to implement and give effect to any assignment made under this Section 13.05.

  	(d)	Register.  Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a register for the recordation of the name and address of any assignee of the Lenders and the Commitment and outstanding principal amount (and stated interest) of the Term Loans owing thereto (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and Borrower, Administrative Agent and the applicable Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the “Lender” hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

  	(e)	Participations.  Any of the Lenders may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrower, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Commitment and/or the Term Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Lenders in connection therewith.

  Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (i) increase or extend the term of such Lender’s Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the Term Loans or any portion of any fee hereunder payable to the Participant, (iii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, or (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon to a level below the rate at which the Participant is entitled to receive such 

  -113-

   

  

  interest.  Subject to Section 13.05(f), Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 5 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 5.03(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 5.03(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 13.05(b).  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.04(a) as though it were the Lender.

  	(f)	Limitations on Rights of Participants.  A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.01 or 5.03 than its participating 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 any Requirement of Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non‐fiduciary agent of 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 Term Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letters of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103‐1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

  	(g)	Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any other Loan Document to secure its obligations, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.  Each Lender may (without the consent of Administrative Agent, any Obligor or any other Lender) transfer, assign, pledge or collaterally assign and grant a security interest in or to all (or a portion) of its rights and obligations under this Agreement in connection with any pledge, sale or assignment in connection with any financing transaction, securitization or loan facility (collectively, the “Financing Transaction”), including, without limitation, any proceeding or action related to the Financing Transaction where the Term Loan is sold or assigned as part of a foreclosure, asset sale, bid wanted in competition process or other similar transaction, including all rights, benefits, warranties, representations, covenants, indemnities and remedies, and all proceeds of the foregoing, contained in this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents and, notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, there shall be no requirement, limitation or restriction on the ability of each such transferee, pledgee or assignee to foreclose upon and further assign or otherwise transfer all (or a portion) of such rights upon the occurrence of a default, event of default or similar occurrence with respect to such financing or securitization transaction; provided that in each case, no such transfer, pledge or assignment shall be made to any Person that is not an Eligible Transferee, or release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such transferee, pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto unless such transferee, pledgee or assignee executes and delivers to Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Assumption.

  -114-

   

  

  	Section 13.06.	Survival.  The obligations of the Obligors under Sections 5.01, 5.02, 5.03, 13.03, 13.05, 13.09, 13.10, 13.11, 13.12, 13.13, 13.14, 13.20 and Section 14 (solely to the extent guaranteeing any of the obligations under the foregoing Sections) shall survive the repayment of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitment and, in the case of the Lenders’ assignment of any interest in the Commitment or the Term Loans hereunder, shall survive, in the case of any event or circumstance that occurred prior to the effective date of such assignment, the making of such assignment, notwithstanding that the Lenders may cease to be “Lenders” hereunder.  In addition, each representation and warranty made, or deemed to be made by a Notice of Borrowing, herein or pursuant hereto shall survive the making of such representation and warranty.

  	Section 13.07.	Captions.  The table of contents and captions and section headings appearing herein are included solely for convenience of reference and are not intended to affect the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

  	Section 13.08.	Counterparts; Effectiveness of Electronic Documents and Signatures.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  The parties hereto agree that “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, authentication, 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 or the use of a paper-based record keeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including, without limitation, the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any state, the New York Electronic Signatures and Records Act (N.Y. State Tech. §§ 301-309), or the Uniform Commercial Code, and the parties hereto hereby waive any objection to the contrary.  Notwithstanding the forgoing, Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any electronic document or signature.

  	Section 13.09.	Governing Law.  This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction; provided that Section 5‐1401 of the New York General Obligations Law shall apply.

  	Section 13.10.	Jurisdiction, Service of Process and Venue.

  	(a)	Submission to Jurisdiction.  Each Obligor agrees that any suit, action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party or any judgment entered by any court in respect thereof may be brought initially in any court of the State of New York sitting in New York County (Borough of Manhattan) or of the United States for the Southern District of New York or in the courts of its own corporate domicile and irrevocably submits to the non‐exclusive jurisdiction of each such court for the purpose of any such suit, action, proceeding or judgment.  This Section 13.10(a) is for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders only and, as a result, neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be prevented from taking proceedings in any other courts with jurisdiction.  To the extent allowed by Applicable Laws, Administrative Agent and the Lenders may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.

  -115-

   

  

  	(b)	Alternative Process.  Nothing herein shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability of Administrative Agent or the Lenders to serve any such process or summonses in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

  	(c)	Waiver of Venue, Etc.  Each Obligor irrevocably waives to the fullest extent permitted by law any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document and hereby further irrevocably waives to the fullest extent permitted by law any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.  A final judgment (in respect of which time for all appeals has elapsed) in any such suit, action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any court to the jurisdiction of which such Obligor is or may be subject, by suit upon judgment.

  	Section 13.11.	Waiver of Jury Trial.  Each Party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other loan documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

  	Section 13.12.	Waiver of Immunity.  To the extent that any Obligor may be or become entitled to claim for itself or its Property or revenues any immunity on the ground of sovereignty or the like from suit, court jurisdiction, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of a judgment or execution of a judgment, and to the extent that in any such jurisdiction there may be attributed such an immunity (whether or not claimed), such Obligor hereby irrevocably agrees not to claim and hereby irrevocably waives such immunity with respect to its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

  	Section 13.13.	Entire Agreement.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.  Each Obligor acknowledges, represents and warrants that in deciding to enter into this Agreement and the other loan documents or in taking or not taking any action hereunder or thereunder, it has not relied, and will not rely, on any statement, representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or understanding, whether written or oral, of or with Administrative Agent or the Lenders other than those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other loan documents.

  	Section 13.14.	Severability.  If any provision hereof is found by a court to be invalid or unenforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law the parties agree that such invalidity or unenforceability shall not impair the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.

  	Section 13.15.	No Fiduciary Relationship.  Each Obligor acknowledges that Administrative Agent and the Lenders have no fiduciary relationship with, or fiduciary duty to, Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Lenders and Borrower is solely that of creditor and debtor.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents do not create a joint venture among the parties.

  	Section 13.16.	Confidentiality.  Each of Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its 

  -116-

   

  

  Affiliates and to its Related Persons (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Persons (including any self‐regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners); (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Persons) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder (it being understood that the list of Ineligible Institutions may be disclosed to any assignee or Participant, or prospective assignee or Participant, in reliance on this clause (f)); (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating Parent, Borrower or the Subsidiaries or the Term Loans or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Term Loans; (h) with the consent of Borrower; or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 13.16, or (y) becomes available to Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Obligors.  In addition, Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

  For purposes of this Section 13.16, “Information” means all information received from Parent or any of its Subsidiaries relating to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, including all information received pursuant to the obligations of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries under Section 8.02 of this Agreement, other than any such information that is available to Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Parent or any Subsidiary.

  The obligations of any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 13.16 shall continue with respect to any item of Information for only so long as the item of Information has or retains a confidential nature, but in no event beyond a period of two (2) years from the Termination Date.  In no event shall Administrative Agent or any Lender be obligated or required to return any Information furnished by an Obligor.

  The provisions of this Section 13.16 shall supersede the terms of that certain confidentiality agreement dated June 24, 2022 between Borrower and Oxford.  

  	Section 13.17.	USA PATRIOT Act.  Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby notify the Obligors that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107‐56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”) or any Anti‐Money Laundering Laws, they are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Obligor, which information includes the name and address of such Obligor and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Obligor in accordance with the Act or other Anti‐Money Laundering Laws.

  -117-

   

  

  	Section 13.18.	Maximum Rate of Interest.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non‐usurious interest permitted by Applicable Law (in each case, the “Maximum Rate”).  If the Lenders shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Term Loans, and not to the payment of interest, or, if the excessive interest exceeds such unpaid principal, the amount exceeding the unpaid balance shall be refunded to the applicable Obligor.  In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Lenders exceeds the Maximum Rate, the Lenders may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Indebtedness and other obligations of any Obligor hereunder, or (d) allocate interest between portions of such Indebtedness and other obligations under the Loan Documents to the end that no such portion shall bear interest at a rate greater than that permitted by Applicable Law.

  	Section 13.19.	Certain Waivers.

  	(a)	Real Property Security Waivers.  (i) Each Obligor acknowledges that all or any portion of the Obligations may now or hereafter be secured by a Lien or Liens upon real property evidenced by certain documents including deeds of trust and assignments of rents.  The Secured Parties may, pursuant to the terms of said Real Property Security Documents and applicable law, foreclose under all or any portion of one or more of said Liens by means of judicial or nonjudicial sale or sales.  Each Obligor agrees that the Secured Parties may exercise whatever rights and remedies they may have with respect to said real property security, all without affecting the liability of any Obligor under the Loan Documents, except to the extent the Secured Parties realize payment by such action or proceeding.  No election to proceed in one form of action or against any party, or on any obligation shall constitute a waiver of any Secured Party’s rights to proceed in any other form of action or against any Obligor or any other Person, or diminish the liability of any Obligor, or affect the right of the Secured Parties to proceed against any Obligor for any deficiency, except to the extent the Secured Parties realize payment by such action, notwithstanding the effect of such action upon any Obligor’s rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnity, if any, against Obligor or any other Person.

  	(ii)	To the extent permitted under applicable law, each Obligor hereby waives any rights and defenses that are or may become available to such Obligor by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil Code.

  	(iii)	To the extent permitted under applicable law, each Obligor hereby waives all rights and defenses that such Obligor may have because the Obligations are or may be secured by real property.  This means, among other things:

  	(A)	the Secured Parties may collect from any Obligor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by any other Obligor;

  -118-

   

  

  	(B)	If the Secured Parties foreclose on any real property collateral pledged by any Obligor:

  	(1)	The amount of the Term Loans may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price; and

  	(2)	the Secured Parties may collect from each Obligor even if the Secured Parties, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, have destroyed any right that such Obligor may have to collect from any other Obligor.

  	(3)	To the extent permitted under applicable law, this is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses each Obligor may have because the Obligations are or may be secured by real property.  These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

  	(iv)	To the extent permitted under applicable law, each Obligor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the Secured Parties, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed such Obligor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal by the operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.

  	(b)	Waiver of Marshaling.  Without limiting the foregoing in any way, each Obligor hereby irrevocably waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any and all rights it may have at any time (whether arising directly or indirectly, by operation of law, contract or otherwise) to require the marshaling of any assets of any Obligor, which right of marshaling might otherwise arise from any payments made or obligations performed.

The parties hereto agree to (a) treat any contingency associated with the Term Loans as described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1272‐1(c) and/or Treasury Regulations Section 1.1275‐2(h), and therefore not treat any Term Loan as governed by the rules set out in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1275‐4, (b) treat, except with respect to a Lender described in Sections 871(h)(3) or 881(c)(3) of the Code and absent a change in a Requirement of Law, all interest on the Term Loans as “portfolio interest” within the meaning of Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, and therefore as exempt from withholding tax under Sections 1441(c)(9) or 1442(a) of the Code, and (c) adhere to this Section 13.20 for federal income and any other applicable tax purposes and not to take any action or file any Tax Return, report or declaration inconsistent herewith, except to the extent required by any Requirement of Law.

Other than in any SEC Document or in connection with the filing of any SEC Document, no Obligor will in the future issue any press releases or other public disclosure using the name “Oxford Finance LLC” or any other Lender or referring to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents without at least two (2) Business Days’ prior notice to Oxford or such Lender, as applicable, and without the prior written consent of Oxford or such Lender, as applicable, unless (and only to the extent that) such Obligor is required to do so under Applicable Law and then, in any event, such Obligor will consult with Oxford or such Lender, as applicable, before issuing such press release or other public disclosure to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law; provided, however, that no notice, consent or consultation shall be required for any press releases or other public disclosures that include language in form and substance substantially similar to language previously agreed to among an Obligor, Oxford and the Lenders.  Each Obligor expressly consents to and authorizes disclosure by Administrative Agent and Lenders of customary information concerning the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to loan syndication and pricing reporting services.

  Section 14.	Guarantee.

  	Section 14.01.	The Guarantee.  The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantee to the Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest on the Term Loans and all fees and other amounts from time to time owing to the Secured Parties by Borrower under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document and by any other Obligor under any of the Loan Documents, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  The Guarantors hereby further jointly and severally agree that, if Borrower shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantors will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

  	Section 14.02.	Obligations Unconditional; Guarantor Waivers.  The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 14.01 are absolute and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 14.02 that the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, joint and several, under any and all circumstances.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantors hereunder, which shall 

  -120-

   

  

  remain absolute and unconditional as described above, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses to enforcement it may have (now or in the future) by reason of:

  	(a)	any change in the time, including the time for any performance or compliance with, place or manner of payment of, or in any other term of, the Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligation of any Obligor under any Loan Document, or any rescission, waiver, amendment or other modification of any Loan Document or any other agreement, including any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from any extension of additional credit or otherwise;

  	(b)	any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein shall be done or omitted;

  	(c)	the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

  	(d)	any taking, exchange, substitution, release, impairment or non‐perfection of any Collateral, any taking, release, impairment, amendment, waiver or other modification of any guaranty, for the Guaranteed Obligations or any lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, the Secured Parties as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected; and

  	(e)	the failure of any other Person to execute or deliver this Agreement, any Loan Document or any other guaranty or agreement or the release or reduction of liability of any Obligor or other guarantor or surety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations.

  The Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against Borrower under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

  	Section 14.03.	Reinstatement.  The obligations of the Guarantors under this Section 14 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of Borrower in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and the Guarantors jointly and severally agree that they will indemnify the Secured Parties on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including fees of counsel) incurred by the Lenders in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

  	Section 14.04.	Subrogation.  The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree that until the payment and satisfaction in full of all Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the Commitments under this Agreement, they shall not exercise any right or remedy arising by reason of any performance by them of their guarantee in Section 14.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against 

  -121-

   

  

  Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

  	Section 14.05.	Remedies.  The Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Guarantors and the Secured Parties, the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 11 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 11) for purposes of Section 14.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 14.01.

  	Section 14.06.	Instrument for the Payment of Money.  Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Section 14 constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that the Secured Parties, at their sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to proceed by motion for summary judgment in lieu of complaint pursuant to N.Y. Civ. Prac. L&R § 3213.

  	Section 14.07.	Continuing Guarantee.  The guarantee in this Section 14 is a continuing guarantee, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

  	Section 14.08.	Rights of Contribution.  The Guarantors hereby agree, as between themselves, that if any Guarantor shall become an Excess Funding Guarantor (as defined below) by reason of the payment by such Guarantor of any Guaranteed Obligations, each other Guarantor shall, on demand of such Excess Funding Guarantor (but subject to the next sentence), pay to such Excess Funding Guarantor an amount equal to such Guarantor’s Pro Rata Share (as defined below and determined, for this purpose, without reference to the properties, debts and liabilities of such Excess Funding Guarantor) of the Excess Payment (as defined below) in respect of such Guaranteed Obligations.  The payment obligation of a Guarantor to any Excess Funding Guarantor under this Section 14.08 shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the obligations of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Section 14 and such Excess Funding Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy with respect to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all of such obligations.

  For purposes of this Section 14.08, (i) “Excess Funding Guarantor” means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, a Guarantor that has paid an amount in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) “Excess Payment” means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, the amount paid by an Excess Funding Guarantor in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations and (iii) “Pro Rata Share” means, for any Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (x) the amount by which the aggregate present fair saleable value of all properties of such Guarantor (excluding any shares of stock of any other Guarantor) exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities of such Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder and any obligations of any other Guarantor that have been Guaranteed by such Guarantor) to (y) the amount by which the aggregate fair saleable value of all properties of all of the Guarantors exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of Borrower and the 

  -122-

   

  

  Guarantors hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) of all of the Guarantors, determined (A) with respect to any Guarantor that is a party hereto on the Closing Date, as of such Closing Date, and (B) with respect to any other Guarantor, as of the date such Guarantor becomes a Guarantor hereunder.

  	Section 14.09.	General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations.  In any action or proceeding involving any provincial, territorial or state corporate law, or any state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 14.01 would otherwise, taking into account the provisions of Section 14.08, be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 14.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Secured Party or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

  	Section 14.10.	Release.  (a) The guarantee by the Guarantors pursuant to this Section 14 shall be automatically released upon the occurrence of any of the following:

  	(i)	When all Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made) shall have been paid in full in cash and the other conditions specified in Section 12.10(b)(iii) have been met; and

  	(ii)	Upon the sale of such Guarantor to any Person that is not an Obligor (and is not required to become and Obligor under the Loan Documents) in a transaction permitted under this Agreement.

  	(b)	Administrative Agent shall, at the sole expense of Borrower or the applicable Guarantor, execute and deliver to such Guarantor upon such termination or release such documentation as shall be reasonably requested by the respective Guarantor to affect the termination as required by this Section 14.10.

  By your signature below, Landlord and Tenant agree (and Agent, on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, shall rely on such agreement) that, during the period that the Secured Parties continue to have a secured interest in the Collateral pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan Agreement: (i) Landlord hereby subordinates any landlord lien rights it may have in and to the Collateral to the interest of the Secured Parties and, in the case of trade fixtures, waives any claim that the same are part of the Building by virtue of being affixed thereto; (ii) Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties), and its employees and agents, shall, during the term of the Lease, have the right, from time to time, upon reasonable notice to Landlord and Tenant, to enter upon the Premises for the purpose of inspecting the Collateral; and (iii) Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) and its employees and agents shall during the term of the Lease, have the right, to the extent permitted under the Term Loan Agreement, and after reasonable prior notice to Landlord and Tenant, to enter upon the Premises and promptly remove the Collateral from the Premises, provided that Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) promptly repairs any damage caused by such removal.

  In addition to the rights set forth above, provided the Secured Parties still have a secured interest in the Collateral, Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) shall have the right and license to enter and occupy the Premises, for the purposes described in clause (iii) hereinabove, for an actual occupancy period of up to thirty (30) days (at Agent’s sole discretion, on behalf of the Secured Parties) (such period referred to herein as the “Recovery Period”) following the date (the “Recovery Period Commencement Date”) upon which the earlier of the following occurs: (i) the delivery of a notice of termination of the Lease to Agent by Landlord; and (ii) the abandonment or surrender of the Premises by Tenant, whether voluntary or involuntary.  As a condition to such occupancy, Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) shall deliver to Landlord written notice within five (5) days after the Recovery Period Commencement Date specifying the length of the Recovery Period (which in no case shall be longer than thirty (30) days after the Recovery Period Commencement Date).  Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) shall pay Landlord, for each day of the Recovery Period specified in the written notice delivered by Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) to Landlord: (A) base rent equal to the base rent payable by Tenant for the Premises immediately prior to the commencement of the Recovery Period; (B) Tenant’s pro-rata share of operating expenses, tax expenses and utilities costs payable under the Lease; and (C) all other additional rent payable under the Lease.  Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) shall promptly repair any damage caused by the removal of the Collateral under this Paragraph.

  Landlord shall endeavor to deliver to Agent, at Agent’s address set forth below, (i) written notice of any early termination of the Lease by Landlord or any abandonment or surrender of the Premises by Tenant within two (2) Business Days of such early termination, abandonment, or surrender (as the case may be), and (ii) copies of all breach, default, noncompliance or termination notices delivered to Tenant pursuant to the Lease simultaneously with the delivery thereof to Tenant; provided that Landlord’s failure to timely deliver any such notice to Agent shall not affect or impair any of Landlord’s rights or remedies under the Lease or any of Tenant’s obligations under the Lease.  In connection with clause (ii) hereinabove, Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) shall have the right to cure any default by Tenant under the Lease within the applicable notice and cure periods set forth in the Lease.

  Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) and Tenant agree to reimburse Landlord for, and to indemnify, defend, protect and hold Landlord harmless from and against, any and all losses, expenses, damages and claims actually incurred by Landlord or caused to the Premises by Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) and/or its employees or agents, during any such entry upon and/or removal pursuant to the 

  -2-

  

   

  terms of this letter agreement (including, without limitation, any losses, expenses, claims and damages resulting from Agent’s failure to repair any damage to the Premises resulting from any such removal).

  Any notices required or desired to be given hereunder shall be in writing, sent by certified mail, return receipt requested or by telecopy, to the respective parties and the addresses set forth on the signature page or at such other address as the receiving party shall designate in writing.

  This letter may be executed in any number of counterparts, and may be executed by telecopy transmission or by email of a counterpart hereof in .pdf format, and all such signatures shall be treated as originals.

  The agreements contained in this letter may not be modified or terminated orally.  This letter agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, any successors and assigns of the parties hereto.
