WHEREAS, the proceeds of the Additional Term Loans will be used by the Borrower to repay in full the outstanding principal amount of the Existing Tranche B Term Loans that are not continued as New Tranche B Term Loans by Continuing Term Lenders and for general corporate purposes (including the payment of fees and expenses in connection with this Amendment);

The parties hereto therefore agree as follows:


SECTION 1. Defined Terms. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms are used herein as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement.


SECTION 2.    Amendments.


(a)    The Credit Agreement is hereby amended to delete the stricken text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: stricken text that) and to add the double- underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: added double- underlined text) as set forth in Exhibit A hereto.


(b)    Schedule 1.01(b) (Term Loan Commitments) to the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth on Exhibit B hereto.


(c)    Schedule 7.01(b) (Existing Indebtedness) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth on Exhibit C hereto.


SECTION 3. New Tranche B Term Loans.


(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) each Continuing Term Lender agrees to continue all (or such lesser amount as notified to such Lender by the Lead Arranger prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date) of its Existing Tranche B Term Loans as





New Tranche B Term Loans on the Third Amendment Effective Date in a principal amount equal to such Continuing Term Lender’s New Tranche B Term Loan Commitment (as defined below) and (ii) each Additional Term Lender agrees to make a New Tranche B Term Loan on such date to the Borrower in a principal amount equal to such Additional Term Lender’s New Tranche B Term Loan Commitment. For purposes hereof, a Person shall become a party to the Amended Credit Agreement and a New Tranche B Term Lender as of the Third Amendment Effective Date by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date, a Lender Addendum (Additional Term Lender) in its capacity as a New Tranche B Term Lender.


(b)    Each Additional Term Lender will make its New Tranche B Term Loan on the Third Amendment Effective Date by making available to the Administrative Agent, in the manner contemplated by Section 2.05(a) of the Amended Credit Agreement, an amount equal to its New Tranche B Term Loan Commitment. The “New Tranche B Term Loan Commitment” of (i) any Continuing Term Lender will be the amount of its Existing Tranche B Term Loans as set forth in the Register immediately prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date (or such lesser amount as notified to such Lender by the Lead Arranger prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date), which shall be continued as an equal amount of New Tranche B Term Loans, and (ii) any Additional Term Lender will be such amount (not exceeding any commitment offered by such Additional Term Lender) allocated to such Additional Term Lender by the Lead Arranger and notified to such Additional Term Lender on or prior to the Amendment Effective Date.


(c)    The commitments of the Additional Term Lenders and the continuation  undertakings of the Continuing Term Lenders are several, and no such Lender will be responsible for any other such Lender’s failure to make or acquire by continuation its New Tranche B Term Loan. The New Tranche B Term Loans may from time to time be ABR Loans or Eurodollar  Loans, as determined by the Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent as contemplated by Sections 2.03 and 2.06 of the Amended Credit Agreement. The Lenders having Existing Tranche  B Term Loans that are prepaid in connection with the making of the New Tranche B Term Loans shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14 of the Existing Credit Agreement with respect thereto. The Continuing Term Lenders hereby waive the benefits of Section 2.14 of the Existing Credit Agreement with respect thereto.


(d)    On and after the Third Amendment Effective Date, each reference in the Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document to “Tranche B Term Loans” shall be deemed a reference to the New Tranche B Term Loans contemplated hereby, except as the context may otherwise require.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement with respect to indemnification, reimbursement of costs and expenses, increased costs and break funding payments shall continue in full force and effect with respect to, and for the benefit of, each Existing Tranche B Term Lender in respect of such Lender’s Existing Tranche B Term Loans to  the extent such provisions expressly survive the repayment of the Existing Tranche B Term Loans as set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement.


(e)    The continuation of Continued Term Loans may be implemented pursuant to other procedures specified by the Lead Arranger, including by repayment of Continued Term Loans of a Continuing Term Lender followed by a subsequent assignment to it of New Tranche B Term Loans in the same amount.


(f)    For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree that, at the sole option of the Lead Arranger, any Lender with Existing Tranche B Term Loans that are prepaid





as contemplated hereby shall, automatically upon receipt of the amount necessary to purchase such Lender’s Existing Tranche B Term Loans so replaced, at par, and pay all accrued interest thereon, be deemed to have assigned such Loans pursuant to a form of Assignment and Assumption and, accordingly, no other action by the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Obligors shall be required in connection therewith. The Lenders hereby agree to waive the notice requirements of Section 2.09(c) of the Existing Credit Agreement in connection with the prepayment or replacement of Existing Tranche B Term Loans contemplated hereby.


SECTION 4. Representations and Warranties.  After giving effect to this Amendment, each of the Borrower (as to itself and its Subsidiaries only) and the Holding Company hereby confirms that the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV of the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof (or, if any such representation and warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date) and that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred or be continuing.

(e)    receipt by the Administrative Agent of the legal opinion of Thomas & Libowitz, P.A., counsel for the Obligors, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

Each Obligor ratifies and confirms that all Liens granted, conveyed, or assigned to any Agent by such Person pursuant to each Loan Document to which it is a party remain in full force and effect, are not released or reduced, and continue to secure full payment and performance of the Obligations as increased hereby.


SECTION 7.  Effect on the Loan Documents; Miscellaneous. Except as expressly provided herein, all of the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are and shall remain in full force and effect. This Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document for all purposes of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Provisions of this Amendment are deemed incorporated into the Amended Credit Agreement as if fully set forth therein.


SECTION 8.  Expenses. The Borrower agrees to pay and reimburse the Administrative Agent for all its reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the preparation and delivery of this Amendment, including, without limitation, the actual and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of any such expenses, for which invoices in reasonable detail shall have been presented to the Borrower prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date).


SECTION 9.  Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by telecopy or electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.


SECTION 10.  Governing Law. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

All calculations made for the purposes of determining compliance with the terms of this Agreement shall (except as otherwise expressly provided herein) be made by application of generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that used in the preparation of the annual or quarterly financial statements furnished to the Lenders pursuant to Section 6.01 (or, prior to the first financial statements delivered under Section 6.01, used in the preparation of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.04) unless (i) the Borrower shall have objected in writing to determining such compliance on such basis at the time of delivery of such financial statements or (ii) the Required Lenders shall so object in writing within 30 days after delivery of such financial statements, in either of which  events such calculations shall be made on a basis consistent with those used in the preparation of the latest financial statements as to which such objection shall not have been made (which, if objection is made in respect of the first financial statements delivered under Section 6.01, shall mean the financial statements referred to in Section 4.04).

(d)    Except as expressly provided herein, (i) all calculations made with respect to any period during which an Acquisition is consummated shall be calculated on a pro forma basis as if such Acquisition had been consummated on the first day of such period and as if any Indebtedness incurred or assumed in connection with such Acquisition were outstanding throughout such period, using such reasonable estimates and pro forma adjustments effected in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as the Borrower shall propose and the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders shall approve and (ii) all calculations made with respect to any period during which a Disposition is consummated shall be calculated on a pro forma basis as if any such Disposition had been consummated on the first day of such period and as if any prepayments actually made in connection therewith had occurred on the first day of such period using such reasonable estimates and pro forma adjustments effected in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as the Borrower shall propose and the Administrative Agent shall approve; provided that if the Borrower proposes any such adjustments referred to in the foregoing
clause (i) resulting from pro forma expense savings with respect to EBITDA or Broadcast Cash Flow as a result of an Acquisition (x) if the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders do not object to such proposal within 30 days after their receipt thereof, such proposal shall be deemed accepted and (y) if the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders do object to such proposal within 30 days after their receipt thereof, EBITDA or Broadcast Cash Flow, as the case may be, for the relevant period shall be deemed for purposes hereof to be equal to the sum of EBITDA or Broadcast Cash Flow, as the case may be, for the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for such period plus the corresponding accounting items for the Person or assets that are the subject of such Acquisition.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, prior to giving effect to any proposed pro forma adjustments arising from pro forma expense savings, a Default would occur as a result of an Acquisition, such adjustment shall require approval of the Required Lenders prior to the consummation of such Acquisition.

(e)    Participations.  By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) by the Issuing Lender, and without any further action on the part  of the Issuing Lender or the Revolving Lenders, the Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Revolving  Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit.  Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit on the terms provided herein or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.


In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender promptly upon the request of the Issuing Lender at any time from the time of such LC Disbursement until such LC Disbursement is reimbursed by the Borrower or at any time after any reimbursement payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason.   Each such payment shall be made in the same manner as provided in Section 2.08 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Lender (and Section 2.08 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders.  Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Lender or, to the extent that the Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Lender, then to such Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Lender as their interests may appear.  Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.


(f)    Reimbursement.  If the Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Lender in respect of such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice of such LC Disbursement,  if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, or (ii) the Business Day immediately



following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time, provided that, if such LC Disbursement is not less than $1,000,000, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or a Swing Line Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swing Line Loan.


If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof.


(g)    Obligations Absolute.  The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (f) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply strictly with the terms of such Letter of Credit, and (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder.


Neither the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders nor the Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit by the Issuing Lender or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.  The parties hereto expressly agree that:


(i)    the Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit;


(ii)    the Issuing Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decline to accept such documents and to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and


(iii)    this sentence shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by the Issuing Lender when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing).



(h)    Disbursement Procedures.  The Issuing Lender shall, within a reasonable time following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit.  The Issuing Lender shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.


(i)    Interim Interest.  If the Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at  the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section, then Section 2.11(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Lender shall be for the account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment.


(j)    Replacement of the Issuing Lender.  The Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Lender.  At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(b).  From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require.  After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.


(k)    Cash Collateralization.  If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Revolving Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Required Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing more than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall immediately deposit into a Collateral Account an amount in cash equal to 105% of the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any accrued and unpaid fees under Section 2.10(b); provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without  demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (g) or (h) of Article VIII.  Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent in such Collateral Account as collateral in the first instance for the LC Exposure under this Agreement and thereafter for the payment of the “Secured Obligations” under and as defined in the Security Agreement, and for these purposes the Borrower hereby grants a security interest to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in such Collateral Account and in any financial assets (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) or other property held therein.


(l)    Deliveries.  Promptly following the end of each calendar quarter, the Issuing Lender shall deliver (through the Administrative Agent) to each Revolving Lender and the Borrower a



notice describing the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at the end of such quarter. Upon the request of any Revolving Lender from time to time, the Issuing Lender shall deliver any other information reasonably requested by such Revolving Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit then outstanding.


SECTION 2.05    Funding of Borrowings.


(a)    Funding by Lenders.  Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 1:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders, provided that Swing Line Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.01(d).  The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City and designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that  ABR Revolving Borrowings made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.04(f) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Lender.


(b)    Presumption by the Administrative Agent.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans.  If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.


SECTION 2.06    Interest Elections.


(a)    Elections by the Borrower for Borrowing.  Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request.  Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section.  The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and  the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.  This Section shall not apply to Swing Line Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.


(b)    Notice of Elections.  To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election.  Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.



(c)    Information in Interest Election Requests.  Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:


(i)    the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) of this paragraph shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);


(ii)    the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;


(iii)    whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and


(iv)    if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period  to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.


If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.


(d)    Notice by the Administrative Agent to Lenders.  Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.


(e)    Failure to Elect; Events of Default.  If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing (other than a Swing Line Borrowing). Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing (other than a Swing Line Borrowing) at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.


(f)    Limitations on Lengths of Interest Periods.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert to or continue as a Eurodollar Borrowing:  (i) any Revolving Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would begin before and end after the Revolving Maturity Date; (ii) any Term Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Term Loan Maturity Date therefor; (iii) any Tranche A-1 Term Loan, Tranche A-2 Term Loan or Tranche B Term Loan if the Interest Period therefor would commence before and end after any Tranche A-1 Term Loan Principal Payment Date, Tranche A-2 Term Loan Principal Payment Date or Tranche B Term Loan Principal Payment Date, as applicable, unless, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche A-1 Term Loans having Interest Periods that end after such Tranche A-1 Term Loan Principal Payment Date. the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche A-2 Term Loans having Interest Periods that end after such Tranche A-2 Term Loan Principal Payment Date or the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche B Term Loans having Interest Periods that end after such Tranche B Term Loan Principal Payment Date, as applicable, shall be equal to or less than the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche A-1 Term Loans, the
Tranche A-2 Term Loans or the Tranche B Term Loans, as applicable, permitted to be outstanding after giving effect to the payments of principal required to be made on such Tranche A-1 Term Loan Principal



Payment Date, Tranche A-2 Term Loan Principal Payment Date or Tranche B Term Loan Principal Payment Date, as applicable; (iv) any Incremental Loan of any Series if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Incremental Loan Maturity Date for such Series; or (v) any Incremental Loan of any Series if the Interest Period therefor would commence before and end after any Incremental Loan Principal Payment Date for such Series unless, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Incremental Loans of such Series having Interest Periods that end after such Incremental Loan Principal Payment Date shall be equal to or less than the aggregate principal amount of the Incremental Loans of such Series permitted to be outstanding after giving effect to the payments of principal required to be made on such Incremental Loan Principal Payment Date.


SECTION 2.07    Termination and Reduction of the Commitments.


(a)    Scheduled Termination.  Unless previously terminated, (i)  the Incremental Tranche B- 1 Term Loan Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Sixth RestatementThird Amendment Effective Date, (ii) the Delayed Draw Tranche A Term Loan Commitments shall terminate at the earlier of (A) 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the last day of the Delayed Draw Tranche A Term Loan Commitment Period and (B) the date on which such Delayed Draw Tranche A Term Loan Commitments have been fully utilized, (iii) the Tranche A-1 Term Loan Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Second Amendment Effective Date, (iv) the Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Second Amendment Effective Date and (v) the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender shall terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date.


		
	(b)
	[Reserved].




(c)    Voluntary Termination or Reduction.  The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class pursuant to this Section shall be in an amount that is $5,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.09, the total Revolving Exposures would exceed the total Revolving Commitments.  The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments of any Class under this paragraph (c) at least two Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof.  Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof.  Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.


(d)    Effect of Termination or Reduction.  Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent.  Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

(b)    Adjustment of Amortization Schedule. (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if on any date (the “Test Date”) (x) the maturity date for any of the then outstanding Other Debt shall fall within 91 days of the Test Date, (y) an amount in excess of
$100,000,000200,000,000 of the outstanding principal amount of such Other Debt shall remain outstanding and (z) the First Lien Indebtedness Ratio is in excess of 2.50 to 1.00, then each Revolving Maturity Date, each Term Loan Maturity Date and each Incremental Loan Maturity Date shall automatically be accelerated to the Test Date and all of the Loans shall thereupon be due and payable on the Test Date, together with all interest and fees accrued thereon or in respect thereof and any amounts payable pursuant hereto, including Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15.


(ii)    Prepayments of Term Loans or Incremental Loans shall be applied in the order specified in Section 2.09(a) or Section 2.09(b)(iii), as applicable.  To the extent not previously paid, all Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date for such Term Loans.  To the extent not previously paid, all Incremental Loans of any Series shall be due and payable on the Incremental Loan Maturity Date for such Series.


(c)    Manner of Payment.  Prior to any repayment or prepayment of any Borrowings of any Class hereunder, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings of the applicable Class to be paid and shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of repayment or prepayment of Swing Line Loans, the Swing Line Lenders) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such selection not later than  10:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment; provided that each repayment of Borrowings of any Class shall be applied to repay any outstanding ABR Borrowings of such Class before any other Borrowings of such Class.  If the Borrower fails to make a timely selection of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid or prepaid, such payment shall be applied, first, to pay any outstanding ABR Borrowings of the applicable Class and, second, to other Borrowings of



such Class in the order of the remaining duration of their respective Interest Periods (the Borrowing with the shortest remaining Interest Period to be repaid first).


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


(e)    Maintenance of Loan Accounts by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and
(iii)    the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.


(f)    Effect of Loan Accounts.  The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (d) or (e) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.


(g)    Promissory Notes.  Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note.  In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent.  Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).


SECTION 2.09    Prepayment of Loans.


(a)    Optional Prepayments.  The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing of any Class in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of this Section.  Any prepayment of the Loans of such Class pursuant to this paragraph shall be applied ratably to the then outstanding Loans of such Class and, in each case, ratably to the respective remaining installments thereof.  Any partial prepayment shall be in an amount that is $1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $100,000.


(b)    Mandatory Prepayments in Respect of Asset Sales and Recovery Events. The Borrower will prepay the Loans and/or reduce the Revolving Commitments, as follows:


(i)    Assets Sales and Recovery Events.  If the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Prepayment Asset Sale or Recovery Event which, taken together with the Net Cash Proceeds for all prior such Prepayment Events from and after the Sixth RestatementThird Amendment Effective Date as to which a prepayment has not yet been made under this paragraph, shall exceed $5,000,000 in the aggregate (such excess amount, the “Excess Disposition Proceeds”), then (unless a Reinvestment Notice shall have been delivered in respect of such Prepayment Asset Sale or Recovery Event) an amount equal to the Relevant Percentage of such Excess Disposition Proceeds shall be applied on each Relevant Application Date toward the prepayment of the Loans and/or the reduction of the Revolving Commitments as set forth in paragraph (b)(iii) of this Section; provided that on each Reinvestment Prepayment



Date, an amount equal to the Relevant Percentage of the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to such Prepayment Asset Sale or Recovery Event, as the case may be, shall be so applied to the prepayment of the Loans and/or the reduction of the Revolving Commitments as set forth in paragraph (b)(iii) of this Section.  If the Borrower shall have provided a Reinvestment Notice with respect to the Net Cash Proceeds of any Prepayment Asset Sale or Recovery Event, the Borrower shall promptly deposit and thereafter maintain such Net Cash Proceeds in a deposit account of the Borrower for which an account control agreement shall be in effect with the relevant depositary bank and the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Security Agreement pending the application of such proceeds in accordance with such Reinvestment Notice (or as otherwise required to be applied pursuant to this Section).


(ii)    Certain Debt Incurrence.  If the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness constituting a Prepayment Event, then an amount equal to the Relevant Percentage of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied on each Relevant Application Date toward the prepayment of the Loans and/or the reduction of the Revolving Commitments as set forth in paragraph (b)(iii) of this Section.


(iii)    Application.  Each such prepayment pursuant to this paragraph (b) shall be applied, first, ratably to the then outstanding Tranche A Term Loans, Tranche B Term Loans and Incremental Loans and, in each case, in the inverse order of their respective maturities, and, second, to reduce permanently the Revolving Commitments.  Any such reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be accompanied by prepayment of the Revolving Loans and/or Swing Line Loans to the extent, if any, that the total Revolving Exposure exceeds the total Revolving Commitments as so reduced, provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans then outstanding is less than the amount of such excess (because LC Exposure constitutes a portion thereof), the Borrower shall, to the extent of the balance of such excess, replace outstanding Letters of Credit and/or cash collateralize such LC Exposure with respect thereto in accordance with Section 2.04(k).


(c)    Notices, Etc.  The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any optional prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such  prepayment; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.07, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.07. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the relevant Lenders of the contents thereof.  Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment.  Each  prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.11 and shall be made in the manner specified in Section 2.08(c).


(d)    Prepayment Premium.  In the event that the Borrower (i) prepays, refinances, substitutes or replaces any Incremental Tranche B- 1 Term Loans in connection with a Repricing Transaction or (ii) effects any amendment of this Agreement after the Incremental LoanThird Amendment No. 1 Effective Date resulting in a Repricing Transaction, the Borrower shall pay to each Incremental



Tranche B- 1 Term Loan Lender, a prepayment fee equal to 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount of such prepayment (or, in the case of clause (ii) above, of the aggregate amount of Incremental Tranche B-1 Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to such amendment) if made on or prior to the date that is six months after the Incremental LoanThird Amendment No. 1 Effective Date.


SECTION 2.10    Fees.


(a)    Commitment Fee.  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Revolving Commitment Fee Rate with respect to such Revolving Lender (subject to paragraph (d) of this Section) on the average daily unused amount of its Revolving Commitment during the period from and including the Sixth Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the earlier of the date such Revolving Commitment terminates and the Revolving Maturity Date with respect to such Revolving Commitment.  Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on each Quarterly Date and the earlier of the date such Revolving Commitment terminates and such Revolving Maturity Date, commencing on the first such date  to occur after the date hereof.  All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).  For purposes of computing commitment fees, the Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans, LC Exposure of such Lender and, with respect to the outstanding Swing Line Loans (if any), the aggregate amount of participations therein that have been funded by the Lenders in accordance with the last paragraph of Section 2.01(d).


(b)    Letter of Credit Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee Rate for such Revolving Lender on the average daily amount of such Revolving Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Sixth Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the Issuing Lender a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate or rates per annum separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Issuing Lender on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Sixth Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of all of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Lender’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder.  Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including each Quarterly Date shall be payable on the third Business Day following such Quarterly Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Sixth Restatement Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Commitments of the Revolving Lenders, terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which such Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand.  Any other fees payable to the Issuing Lender pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand.  All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).


(c)    Administrative Agent Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.


		
	(d)
	[Reserved].





(e)    Payment of Fees.  All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Lender, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto.  Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.


SECTION 2.11    Interest.


(a)    ABR Loans.  The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swing Line Loan) shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.


(b)    Eurodollar Loans.  The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.


(c)    Default Interest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, during any period that a Post- Default Condition exists (whether or not the same is thereafter cured), the Borrower hereby promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender interest at the applicable Post-Default Rate on any principal of any Loan made by such Lender (whether or not then due), on any reimbursement obligation in respect of an LC Disbursement owing to such Lender and on any other amount then due and payable by the Borrower hereunder.


(d)    Payment of Interest.  Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the relevant Revolving Commitments, respectively; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the Revolving Maturity Date), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Borrowing shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.


(e)    Computation.  All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first  day but excluding the last day).  The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


SECTION 2.12    Alternate Rate of Interest.  If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:


(a)    the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or


(b)    if such Borrowing is of a particular Class of Loans, the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders of such Class that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;



then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing (other than a Swing Line Borrowing).


SECTION 2.13    Increased Costs.


(a)    Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:


(i)    subject any Lender or the Issuing Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any Eurodollar Loan made by it, its deposits, reserves or other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or Issuing Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes covered by Section 2.15 and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender or Issuing Lender);


(ii)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the Issuing Lender; or


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


and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.


(b)    Capital Requirements.  If any Lender or the Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.


(c)    Certificates from Lenders.  A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the



Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.


(d)    Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 45 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 45-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.


SECTION 2.14    Break Funding Payments.  In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice is permitted to be revocable under Section 2.09(c) and is revoked in accordance herewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event.  In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, the loss to any Lender attributable to any such event shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that such Lender would pay for a deposit equal to the principal amount of such Loan for the period from the date of such payment, conversion, failure or assignment to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the duration of the Interest Period that would have resulted from such borrowing, conversion or continuation) if the interest rate payable on such deposit were equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period, over (ii) the amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such Lender were to invest such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by such Lender (or an Affiliate of such Lender) for dollar deposits from other banks in the eurodollar market at the commencement of such period.  A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.


SECTION 2.15    Taxes.


(a)    Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Withholding Agent shall be required to deduct or withhold any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) such Withholding Agent shall make such deductions or withholdings and



(iii) such Withholding Agent shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.


(b)    Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower.  In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for such Other Taxes.


(c)    Indemnification by the Borrower.  The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


(d)    Indemnification by the Lender.  Each Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent for the full amount of any Taxes that are attributable to such Lender and that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent, together with all interest, penalties, reasonable costs and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, as determined by the Administrative Agent in good faith. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


(e)    Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.15, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.


(f)    Lender Forms.  Any Lender that is a “United States Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(3) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement two properly completed and duly signed copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal withholding and backup withholding tax.  Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate, including without limitation Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI or W-8IMY (or any applicable successor forms), as may be applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentence, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation 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.


		
	(g)
	If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to


U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of



the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code
	
				
	 
	, as well as any intergovernmental agreements entered into in connection with

	FATCA and any laws, regulations, guidance notes or rules implementing any such intergovernmental
	 

	agreements
	) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the










Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  For purposes of this Section 2.15(g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Credit Agreement.


(h)    For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the First Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and each Lender and the Issuing Lender hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).


SECTION 2.16    Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.


(a)    Payments by the Obligors.  Each Obligor shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent otherwise provided therein) prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim.  Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon.  All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York, except as otherwise expressly provided in the relevant Loan Document, and except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Lender or theany Swing Line Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.13, 2.14,
2.15 and 10.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.  If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment 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.  All payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent otherwise provided therein) shall be made in dollars.


(b)    Application of Insufficient Payments.  If at any time insufficient funds are  received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, to pay principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.


(c)    Pro Rata Treatment.  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein:  (i) each Borrowing of a particular Class shall be made from the relevant Lenders, each payment of commitment fee under Section 2.10 shall be made for account of the relevant Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Commitments of a particular Class under Section 2.07 shall be applied to the respective Commitments of such Class of the relevant Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective



Commitments of such Class; (ii) each Borrowing of any Class shall be allocated pro rata among the relevant Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Commitments of such Class (in the case of the making of Loans) or their respective Loans of such Class (in the case of conversions and continuations of Loans); (iii) each payment or prepayment of principal of Revolving Loans, Term Loans and Incremental Loans by the Borrower shall be made for account of the relevant Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans of such Class held by them; and (iv) each payment of interest on Revolving Loans, Term Loans and Incremental Loans by the Borrower shall be made for account of the relevant Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders.


(d)    Sharing of Payments by Lenders.  If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swing Line Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swing Line Loans and accrued interest thereon then due than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swing Line Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swing Line Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall  be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any Obligor pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).  Each Obligor consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Obligor rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Obligor in the amount of such participation.


(e)    Presumptions of Payment.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.


(f)    Certain Deductions by the Administrative Agent.  If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(e) or (f), 2.05(b) or 2.16(e), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.


SECTION 2.17    Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.



(a)    Designation of a Different Lending Office.  If  any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.13 or 2.15, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.


(b)    Replacement of Lenders.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section  2.13, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender does not agree to any request by the Borrower for a consent, approval, amendment or waiver hereunder that requires the consent or approval of all of  the Lenders, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender  to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall  assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lenders), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swing Line Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.13 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments.  A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.


SECTION 2.18    Defaulting Lender.


Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then so long as such Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender:  (a) if any Swing Line Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time a Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (i) first, prepay
	
			
	such Swing Line Exposure (or, if the Swing Line Lender
	s shall agree, cash collateralize 100% of such

	Defaulting Lender’s Swing Line Exposure
	(other than the portion of such Swing Line Exposure referred to

	in clause (b) of the definition of such term)
	 










therein and otherwise in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.04(k) for so long as such Swing Line Exposure is outstanding) and (ii) second, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure in an amount equal to 100% of such LC Exposure and otherwise in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.04(k) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding; and (b) theno Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loan and the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure therein of such Defaulting Lender will be 100% cash collateralized by the Borrower in accordance with this Section; (c) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of  the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(a); and (d) the



Revolving Exposure and unused Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 10.02); provided, that this clause (d) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby.








SECTION 2.19    Extensions of Term Loans and Revolving Commitments.


(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by the Borrower to all Lenders of Term Loans with a like maturity date or Revolving Commitments with a like maturity date, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the respective Term Loans or Revolving Commitments with a like maturity date, as the case may be) and on the same terms to each such Lender, the Borrower is hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions with individual Lenders that accept the terms contained in such Extension Offers to extend the maturity date of each such Lender’s  Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments and otherwise modify the terms of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant Extension Offer (including, without limitation, by increasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings) and/or modifying the amortization schedule in respect of such Lender’s Term Loans) (each, an “Extension”, and each group of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, in each case as so extended, as well as the original Term Loans and the original Revolving Commitments (in each case not so extended), being a “tranche”; any Extended Term Loans shall constitute a separate tranche of Term Loans from the tranche of Term Loans from which they were converted, and  any Extended Revolving Commitments shall constitute a separate tranche of Revolving Commitments from the tranche of Revolving Commitments from which they were converted), so long as the following terms are satisfied: (i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time the offering document in respect  of an Extension Offer is delivered to the Lenders, (ii) except as to pricing (interest rate, fees, funding discounts and prepayment premiums) and maturity (which shall be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Revolving Commitment (an “Extending Revolving Lender”) extended pursuant to an Extension (an “Extended Revolving Commitment”), and the related outstandings, shall be a Revolving Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with the same terms as the original Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings); provided that (1) the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extending Revolving Commitments and (C) repayment made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments) of Loans with respect to Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments, (2) the permanent repayment of Revolving Loans with respect to, and termination of, Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such Class on a better than a pro rata basis as compared to any other Class with a later maturity date than such Class, (3) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Commitments and extended Revolving Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans and
(4)    at no time shall there be Revolving Commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Commitments and any original Revolving Commitments) which have more than two different maturity dates, (iii) except as to pricing (interest rate, fees, funding discounts and prepayment premiums),



amortization, maturity, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments (which shall, subject to immediately succeeding clauses (iv), (v) and (vi), be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Term Loans of any Term Loan Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Term Loans (an “Extending Term Loan Lender”) extended pursuant to any Extension (“Extended Term Loans”) shall have the same terms as the tranche of Term Loans subject to such Extension Offer (except for covenants or  other provisions contained therein applicable only to periods after the stated maturity date of any of the Term Loans), (iv) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans shall be no earlier than the then stated maturity date of any of the Term Loans, (v) the Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans shall be no less than 180 days longer than the remaining Average Life to Maturity of the Class extended thereby, (vi) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Extension Offer (provided that if the applicable Extending Term Loan Lenders have the ability to decline mandatory prepayments, any such mandatory prepayment that is not accepted by the applicable Extending Term Loan Lenders shall be applied to the
non-extended Term Loans of the Class being extended), (vii) if the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, in respect of which Term Loan Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrower pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as the case may be, of such Term Loan Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on  the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Term Loan Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, have accepted such Extension Offer, (viii) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing and (ix) any  applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrower.


		
	(b)
	With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrower pursuant to this Section,


(i)    such Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Section 2.19 and (ii) each Extension Offer shall specify the minimum amount of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments to be tendered, which shall be with respect to Term Loans of a Class an integral multiple of
$1,000,000 and an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $100,000,000 (or if less, the remaining outstanding principal amount thereof) (or such lesser minimum amount reasonably approved by the Administrative Agent) and with respect to the Revolving Commitments $20,000,000 (or if less, the remaining outstanding amount thereof) (or such lesser minimum amount reasonably approved by the Administrative Agent) (a “Minimum Extension Condition”).  The transactions contemplated by this Section (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments on the such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) shall not require the consent of any Lender or any other Person (other than as set forth in clause (c) below), and the requirements of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section shall not apply to any of the transactions effected pursuant to this Section 2.19.


(c)    The consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) of the Administrative Agent shall be required to effectuate any Extension.  No consent of any Lender or any other Person shall be required to effectuate any Extension, other than (A) the consent of the Borrower and each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one or more of its Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments (or a portion thereof) and (B) with respect to any Extension of the Revolving Commitments, the consent of the Issuing Lender and SwinglineSwing Line Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.  All Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other applicable



Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (an “Extension Amendment”) with the Borrower as may be necessary in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches in respect of Revolving Commitments or Term Loans so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such new tranches or sub-tranches, in each case on terms consistent with this Section.  In addition, if so provided in such amendment and with the consent of the Issuing Lenders, participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the Revolving Maturity Date shall be re-allocated from Lenders holding Revolving Commitments to Lenders holding Extended Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms of such amendment, and the Borrower shall prepay Revolving Loans to the extent required in order to permit such re-allocation; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding Revolving Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such Revolving Commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including, without limitation, the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly.


(d)    In connection with any Extension, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent at least five bBusiness dDays (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (including, without limitation, regarding timing, rounding and other adjustments and to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.19.


SECTION 2.20    Conversion of Tranche A Term Loans to Revolving Commitments.


Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, and effective as of the Sixth Restatement Effective Date, each Tranche A Term Loan Lender (including, for the avoidance of doubt, each Delayed Draw Tranche A Term Loan Lender) shall be permitted to convert all or a portion, as specified on such Lender’s Converting Tranche A Term Loan Lender Addendum of such Lender’s outstanding Tranche A Term Loans or Delayed Draw Tranche A Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, into Revolving Commitments (each such commitment increase, an “Increased Revolving Commitment”) of an equal amount.  Substantially concurrently with the effectiveness of such Increased Revolving Commitments:


(a)    the Revolving Exposures of all Lenders shall be deemed re-allocated ratably in proportion to their respective Revolving Commitments as of the Sixth Restatement Effective Date;


(b)    the Borrower shall repay to each Converting Tranche A Term Loan Lender an amount equal to the difference between (i) the outstanding principal balance of such Lender’s Tranche A Term Loans (if any) immediately prior to giving effect to its Increased Revolving Commitment and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of any Revolving Loans re-allocated to it pursuant to clause (a) above;


(c)    the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Converting Tranche A Term Loan Lender that holds Tranche A Term Loan Commitments or Delayed Draw Tranche A Term Loan Commitments immediately prior to the Sixth Restatement Effective Date, the delayed draw ticking fees agreed to be paid by the Borrower to such Lenders; and


(d)    the Delayed Draw Tranche A Term Loan Commitments of each Converting Tranche A Term Loan Lender that are converted as part of any Increased Revolving Commitment shall be automatically reduced on a dollar for dollar basis.



SECTION 2.21    Voluntary Discounted Prepayments.(a) The Borrower may elect to notify the Administrative Agent and the Term Loan Lenders that it wishes to make below par voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans (each such payment a “Voluntary Discounted Prepayment”) pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section 2.21.  At the time of any Voluntary Discounted Prepayment, the Borrower shall certify, with reasonable supporting detail (as determined by the Administrative Agent), (i) compliance with the requirements of this Section 2.21, (ii) that such Voluntary Discounted Prepayment shall have been approved by at least 66 2⁄3% of the Borrower’s Board of Directors and (iii) that immediately prior to and after giving effect to any Voluntary Discounted Prepayment, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.


(b)    In connection with any Voluntary Discounted Prepayment, the Borrower shall notify the Term Loan Lenders (the “Prepayment Notice”) that the Borrower desires to prepay Term Loans with cash proceeds in an aggregate amount (each, a “Prepayment Amount”) specified by the Borrower (which amount shall be not less than $5,000,000) at a price within a range (the “Range”) to be specified by the Borrower equal to a percentage of par (not to exceed 100%) (the “Payment Percentage”) of the principal amount of the Term Loans to be prepaid.


(c)    In connection with any Voluntary Discounted Prepayment, the Borrower shall allow each Lender to specify a Payment Percentage (the “Acceptable Payment Percentage”) for a principal amount (subject to rounding requirements specified by the Prepayment Agent) of Term Loans at which such Term Loan Lender is willing to permit such Voluntary Discounted Prepayment.  Based on the Acceptable Payment Percentages and principal amounts of Term Loans specified by Term Loan Lenders, the applicable Payment Percentage (the “Applicable Payment Percentage”) for the Voluntary Discounted Prepayment shall be the lowest Acceptable Payment Percentage at which the Borrower can complete the Voluntary Discounted Prepayment for the applicable Prepayment Amount that is within the applicable Range; provided that if the offers received from Term Loan Lenders are insufficient to allow the Borrower to complete the Voluntary Discounted Prepayment for the applicable Prepayment Amount, then the Applicable Payment Percentage shall instead be the highest Acceptable Payment Percentage that is within the applicable Range.  The Borrower shall prepay Term Loans (or the respective portions thereof) offered by Term Loan Lenders at the Acceptable Payment Percentages specified by each such Term Loan Lender that are equal to or less than the Applicable Payment Percentage (“Qualifying Loans”) by remitting an amount to each Term Loan Lender to be prepaid equal to the product of the face amount, or par, of the Term Loan being prepaid multiplied by the Applicable Payment Percentage; provided that if the aggregate cash proceeds required to prepay Qualifying Loans (disregarding any interest payable under Section 2.21(d)) would exceed the applicable Prepayment Amount for such Voluntary Discounted Prepayment, the Borrower shall prepay such Qualifying Loans at the Applicable Payment Percentage ratably based on the respective principal amounts of such Qualifying Loans (subject to rounding requirements specified by the Prepayment Agent).


(d)    All Term Loans prepaid by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.21 shall be accompanied by payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the par principal amount so prepaid to, but not including, the date of prepayment.


(e)    Each Voluntary Discounted Prepayment shall be consummated pursuant to procedures (including as to rounding and minimum amounts, Type and Interest Periods of accepted Term Loans, irrevocability of Prepayment Notice and other notices by the Borrower and Term Loan Lenders and determination of Applicable Payment Percentage) reasonably established by the Prepayment Agent in consultation with the Borrower and not inconsistent with the terms hereof.



(f)    Each Voluntary Discounted Prepayment shall constitute an optional prepayment of Term Loans for all purposes under this Agreement, including for purposes of Section 2.09(a).


(g)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Term Loan Lenders hereby consent to the transactions described in this Section 2.21 and further acknowledge that in connection with any Voluntary Discounted Prepayment, principal and interest payments may be made on a non-pro rata basis, as determined by the Prepayment Agent, to the applicable Term Loan Lenders.


(h)    This Section 2.21 shall not require the Borrower to undertake or any Term Loan Lender to participate in any Voluntary Discounted Prepayment.


ARTICLE III


GUARANTEE


SECTION 3.01    The Guarantee.  The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantee to each of 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 all of the Obligations (other  than, with respect to any Guarantor, any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Guarantor) hereunder and the other Loan Documents, including all obligations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries arising under any Secured Hedging Agreements, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof and including all interest and expenses accrued or incurred subsequent to the commencement of any bankruptcy or  insolvency proceeding with respect to the Borrower or any other Obligor, whether or not such interest or expenses are allowed as a claim in such proceeding (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  The Guarantors hereby further jointly and severally agree that if the 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 3.02    Obligations Unconditional.  The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 3.01 are absolute and unconditional, and joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section that the obligations of the Subsidiary 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 any of the Guarantors hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:


(i)    at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;


(ii)    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;



(iii)    the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right 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; or


(iv)    any lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Lenders as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected.


The Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the 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 3.03    Reinstatement.  The obligations of the Guarantors under this Article shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the 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 Administrative Agent and each Lender on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including fees of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender 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 3.04    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 of the Lenders under this Agreement they shall not exercise any right or remedy  arising by reason of any performance by them of their guarantee in Section 3.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against the Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations.


SECTION 3.05    Remedies.  The Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article VIII (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Article VIII) for purposes of Section 3.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the 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 the Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 3.01.


SECTION 3.06    Instrument for the Payment of Money.  Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or the Administrative Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213.



SECTION 3.07    Continuing Guarantee.  The guarantee in this Article is a continuing guarantee, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.


SECTION 3.08    Rights of Contribution.  The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agree, as between themselves, that if any Subsidiary Guarantor shall become an Excess Funding Guarantor (as defined below) by reason of the payment by such Subsidiary Guarantor of any Guaranteed Obligations, each other Subsidiary 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 Subsidiary 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 Subsidiary Guarantor to any Excess Funding Guarantor under this Section shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the other provisions of this Article 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, (i) “Excess Funding Guarantor” means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, a Subsidiary 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 Subsidiary Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (x) the amount by which the aggregate present fair saleable value of all properties of such Subsidiary Guarantor (excluding any shares of stock of any other Subsidiary Guarantor) exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder and any obligations of any other Subsidiary Guarantor that have been Guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor) to (y) the amount by which the aggregate fair saleable value of all properties of all of the Subsidiary Guarantors exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) of all of the Subsidiary  Guarantors, determined (A) with respect to any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a party hereto on the Sixth Restatement Effective Date, as of the Sixth Restatement Effective Date, and (B) with respect to any other Subsidiary Guarantor, as of the date such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.


SECTION 3.09    General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations.  In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state or Federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 3.01 would otherwise, taking into account the provisions of Section 3.08, 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 3.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.


SECTION 3.10    Keepwell.  Each Qualified ECP hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally, and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Obligor to honor all of its obligations under this Article III in respect of any Swap Obligation (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 3.10 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Borrower shall not be required to cause (a) any Non-Media Subsidiary (or any of such Subsidiary’s Non- Media Subsidiaries) to become a “Subsidiary Guarantor” hereunder or an “Obligor” under the Security Documents or (b) any TV/Radio Subsidiary (or any of such Subsidiary’s Subsidiaries) to become a “Subsidiary Guarantor” hereunder or an “Obligor” under the Security Documents, in each case, so long as the following requirements are satisfied:  (i) (A) such Subsidiary is not liable, directly or indirectly, with respect to any Indebtedness other than Non-Recourse Indebtedness and has not guaranteed or otherwise provided credit support at the time of such designation for any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Subsidiaries of such Subsidiary), (B) such Subsidiary is directly owned by a Guarantor hereunder which is a Wholly Owned Subsidiary and the Capital Stock of such Guarantor has been pledged in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Security Agreement and (C) in the case of any TV/Radio Subsidiary, such TV/Radio Subsidiary has Permitted Assumed Debt outstanding which does not permit such TV/Radio Subsidiary to become a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, or (ii) at the time of acquisition of such Subsidiary (other than any TV/Radio Subsidiary, with respect to which this clause
(ii)    shall not apply) by the Borrower, the entering into of a Borrower Subsidiary Joinder Agreement by such Subsidiary (and its Subsidiaries) would violate any provision of applicable law or any agreement to which such Subsidiary is a party, provided that if at any time thereafter such Subsidiary (or any of its Subsidiaries) shall cease to be subject to the prohibitions referred to in this clause (ii), the Borrower will take such action, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to take such action, promptly to ensure that such Subsidiary (and/or the relevant Subsidiary or Subsidiaries of such Subsidiary) become “Subsidiary Guarantors” hereunder and/or “Obligors” under the Security Documents, as applicable, and in that

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Designated SBG Subsidiary that is a Non-Media Subsidiary (and its Non-Media Subsidiaries, if any) shall not be required to become a “Subsidiary Guarantor” hereunder or an “Obligor” under the Security Documents, so long as the following  requirements are satisfied:  (i) (A) such Subsidiary is not liable, directly or indirectly, with respect to any Indebtedness other than Non-Recourse Indebtedness and has not guaranteed or otherwise provided credit support at the time of such designation for any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Subsidiaries of such Subsidiary) and (B) such Subsidiary is directly owned by the Holding Company or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary thereof which is a Guarantor hereunder and the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary has been pledged (and the requirements of clause (b)(ii) above shall have been satisfied) in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Security Agreement or (ii) at the time of acquisition of such Subsidiary by the Holding Company, the entering into of a SBG Subsidiary Joinder Agreement by such Subsidiary (and its Subsidiaries) would violate any provision of applicable law or any agreement to which such Subsidiary is a party, provided that if at any time thereafter such Subsidiary (or any of its Subsidiaries) shall cease to be subject to the prohibitions referred to in this clause (ii), the Holding Company will take such action, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to take such action, promptly to ensure that such Subsidiary (and/or the relevant Subsidiary or Subsidiaries of such Subsidiary) become “Subsidiary Guarantors” hereunder and/or “Obligors” under the Security Documents, as applicable, and promptly to effect such pledge and otherwise satisfy the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement with respect thereto (and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, without further approval of the Lenders, to  enter into such amendments to the Security Agreement, if any, or any joinder or other agreement relating thereto as shall be necessary to give effect to the foregoing).


(c)    Removal.  The Holding Company and the Borrower may, at any time or from time to time upon not less than five Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period which is acceptable to the Administrative Agent), remove any Designated SBG Subsidiary as a “Subsidiary” and, in the case of any SBG Subsidiary Guarantor, a Guarantor and an Obligor hereunder and under the other Loan Documents if all of the following conditions apply as of the date specified for the effectiveness of such removal: (i) immediately before and after giving effect to such removal, no Default shall have occurred or be continuing; (ii) after giving effect to such removal, such Designated SBG Subsidiary is not liable, directly or indirectly, with respect to any Indebtedness other than Non-Recourse Indebtedness and has not guaranteed or otherwise provided credit support at the time of such removal for any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; (iii) any Investment in such Designated SBG Subsidiary made as a result of such removal shall not violate the provisions of Section 7.07 (as if such Investment were deemed made at the time of such removal); (iv) such removal shall be treated as a Disposition of the assets of such Designated SBG Subsidiary and shall not violate the provisions of Section 7.05(c) or Section 7.09 (as if such Disposition were deemed made at the time of such removal); and (v) any such removal shall be evidenced to the Administrative Agent by furnishing the Administrative Agent a



senior officer’s certificate of the Holding Company and the Borrower certifying that such removal complies with the foregoing conditions.  Upon the satisfaction of such conditions, such Designated SBG Subsidiary (and each of its Subsidiaries) shall cease to be a “Subsidiary” hereunder and, in the case of any SBG Subsidiary Guarantor, a “Subsidiary Guarantor” and an “Obligor” hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and shall be released from all (and shall cease to have any) obligations as such hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.


(d)    Ownership of Designated SBG Subsidiaries.  The Holding Company will take such action, and will cause each Designated SBG Subsidiary, so long as it shall remain a Designated SBG Subsidiary hereunder, to take such action from time to time as shall be necessary to ensure that such Designated SBG Subsidiary (and each of its Subsidiaries) is (i) if such Designated SBG Subsidiary (and each of its Subsidiaries) is a Non-Media Subsidiary, at least a majority-owned Subsidiary of the Holding Company and (ii) otherwise, a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Holding Company.

(i)    [Reserved];


(ii)    if any Person becomes a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Borrower after the Sixth RestatementThird Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower will promptly after the date such Person becomes a Subsidiary notify the Administrative Agent thereof and, within 3060 days after the date such Person becomes a Subsidiary, cause the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be satisfied with respect to such Subsidiary; and


(iii)    the Borrower will cause each Obligor to deliver supplements to the relevant annexes to the Security Agreement listing any newly acquired intellectual property that is registered in the United States Copyright Office or the United States Patent and Trademark Office (collectively, “US Registered IP”) and to take all such further actions (including entering into short-form intellectual property security agreements with respect thereto and providing evidence as to the completion of filing (or arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent for filing) with the United States Copyright Office or the United States Patent and Trademark Office against the relevant intellectual property covered by such security agreements) that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection therewith; provided that this clause (iii) shall not apply with respect to newly acquired intellectual property that is not US Registered IP or that is not otherwise required to be specifically identified in order to maintain a first priority perfected Lien with respect thereto.


(b)    The Borrower will, in the case of any Obligor, furnish to the Administrative Agent prompt written notice of any change in such Obligor’s (i) corporate or organization name, (ii) identity or



organizational structure or (iii) organizational identification number; provided that no Obligor shall effect or permit any such change unless all filings have been made, or will have been made within any statutory period, under the UCC or otherwise that are required in order for the Administrative Agent to continue at all times following such change to have a valid, legal and perfected security interest in all of the Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties.


SECTION 6.12    Post-Effective Date Matters.  The Holding Company and the Borrower will, and will cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to, execute and deliver the documents and complete the actions referred to in clause (d) of the definition of “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement”, in each case within the time periods provided therein.

Subsidiaries), and such termination is, individually or in the aggregate, material to any line of business of the Borrower as set forth in Section 7.06; or

then, and (x) in every such event (other than an event with respect to any Obligor described in clause (g) or (h) of this Article and other than an Event of Default arising from a breach of Section 7.11), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrower, take any or all of the following actions, at the same or different times: (A) terminate the Commitments, and thereupon the Commitments shall terminate immediately; (B) declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which

ARTICLE IX


THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT


Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.


The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (in its capacities as a Lender) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of (and to hold any security interest created by the Security Documents for and on behalf of or on trust for) such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Obligors to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto.  In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” (and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys- in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Article for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article including Section 10.03, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.  Without limiting any other provision of this Article, each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into (and/or agree to any amendments to) from time to time (i) any Security Documents and (ii) intercreditor (including subordination) arrangements on behalf of the Lenders in respect of any Other Debt or Permitted Additional Indebtedness to the extent permitted or contemplated hereunder, in each case as the Administrative Agent shall determine to be appropriate and consistent with the provisions hereof.


The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.


The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders, and (c) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.  The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents



of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article V or elsewhere herein or therein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.


The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person.  The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for an Obligor), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.


The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub- agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.


Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Borrower.  Additionally, if the Lender then acting as the Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender by virtue of clause (e) of the definition thereof, then the Administrative Agent may be removed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower (or only the Required Lenders, if a Default shall exist) upon 30 days’ written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.  Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders and the Borrower shall have the right, so long as no Default shall exist, to appoint a successor from among the Lenders.  In the case of resignation by the  Administrative Agent, if no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with a minimum capital and surplus of $500,000,000 and with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. In the case of removal of the Administrative Agent as provided above, if no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower (or by the Required Lenders, if a Default shall exist) and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the Administrative Agent receives notice of removal, then the Borrower, so long as no Default shall exist, may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with a minimum capital and surplus of $500,000,000 and with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.  The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder, the provisions of this Article and



Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Administrative Agent.


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


Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.02(b) with respect to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent may, with the prior consent of the Required Lenders (but not otherwise), consent to any modification, supplement or waiver under any of the Loan Documents, provided that, without the prior consent of each Lender, the Administrative Agent shall not (except as provided herein or in the Security Documents) release all or substantially all of the collateral or terminate any Lien with respect thereto under the Security Agreement, except that no such consent shall be required, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, to release any Lien covering property that is the subject of either a Disposition of property permitted hereunder or a Disposition to which the Required Lenders have consented. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Security Documents executed by the Obligors in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be amended and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any Lender if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with applicable local law, rule or regulation or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure ambiguities, defects or manifest errors, (iii) to cause any such Security Documents to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and/or (iv) to give effect to the changes to any Security Document required by any Intercreditor Agreement.


In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Obligor, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10 and 10.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10 and 10.03.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.



The Lenders irrevocably agree: (a) that any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document shall be automatically released (i) upon payment in full of all Obligations (other than obligations under Secured Hedging Agreements and contingent indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable), (ii) at the time the property subject to such Lien is transferred or to be transferred as part of or in connection with any transfer made in compliance with the Loan  Documents to any Person other than the Borrower or other Obligor (other than the Holding Company, except with respect to its pledge of the Capital Stock of the Borrower), (iii) subject to Section 10.02(b), if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be required pursuant to Section 10.02(b)), (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents; (b) to release or subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property in respect of any purchase money Indebtedness (including Capital Lease  Obligations) permitted by Section 7.01; and (c) that any Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations under this Agreement if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder; provided that no such release shall occur if such Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of any Other Debt.  Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Obligors in respect of) all interests retained by the Obligors, including the proceeds of any sale or other disposition, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.  Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be required pursuant to Section 10.02(b)) will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under this Agreement pursuant to this Article.  In each case as specified herein, the Administrative Agent will (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to), at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Obligor such documents as such Obligor may reasonably request to evidence the release or subordination of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Documents, or to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under this Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents (including this Article).


It is the purpose of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be no violation of any law, rule or regulation of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in such jurisdiction.  It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and in particular in  case of the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in case the Administrative Agent deems that by reason of any present or future law, rule or regulation of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to appoint an additional individual or institution selected by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion as a separate trustee, co-trustee, administrative agent, collateral agent, administrative sub-agent or administrative co-agent (any such additional individual or institution being referred to herein individually as a “Supplemental Administrative Agent” and collectively as “Supplemental Administrative Agents”).  In the event that the Administrative Agent appoints a Supplemental Administrative Agent with respect to any Collateral, (i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or  any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Administrative Agent with respect to such Collateral shall be exercisable by and vest in such Supplemental Administrative Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such Supplemental Administrative Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges with respect to such Collateral and to perform such duties with respect to such Collateral, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such Supplemental Administrative Agent shall run to












and be enforceable by either the Administrative Agent or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, and
(x)    the provisions of this Article and of Section 10.03 that refer to the Administrative Agent shall inure to the benefit of such Supplemental Administrative Agent and all references therein to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative Agent and/or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, as the context may require.  Should any instrument in writing from the Borrower or any other Obligor be required by any Supplemental Administrative Agent so appointed by the Administrative Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Borrower shall, or shall cause such Obligor to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent.  In case any Supplemental Administrative Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Administrative Agent, to the extent permitted by Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Administrative Agent.


Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Lead Arranger and Lead Bookrunner, the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners, the Co-Senior Arrangers, the Co-Arrangers,  the Co- Syndication Agents and the Co-Documentation Agents named on the cover page of this Agreement shall have no duties or responsibilities hereunder except in their respective capacity, if any, as a Lender.

No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or any Electronic System.

SECTION 10.02    Waivers; Amendments.


(a)    No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, theany Issuing Lender or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have.  No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Obligor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.


(b)    Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.16(c) or (d) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender,
(v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent or waiver hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, or (vi) release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from any of  their guarantee obligations under Article III without the written consent of each Lender (except that no such consent shall be required, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from such obligations that is the subject of a Disposition permitted hereunder or to which the Required Lenders have consented or to release any SBG Subsidiary Guarantor from such obligations in accordance with its removal as a Guarantor hereunder pursuant to Section 6.10); and provided, further,  that (x) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the  Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or theany Swing Line Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or thesuch Swing Line Lender, as the case may be,
(y)    any modification or supplement of Article III shall require the consent of each Subsidiary Guarantor and (z) to the extent specified in Section 2.01(c), this Agreement may be amended to establish Incremental Loan Commitments of any Series pursuant to an Incremental Loan Amendment executed between the Borrower, the relevant Lenders of such Series and the Administrative Agent, and any such Incremental Loan Amendment shall not require the consent of any other party to this Agreement.


(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.02, any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of the Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of any Class (but not the Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of any other Class) may only be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing



entered into by the Borrower and requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class(es) of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section 10.02 if such Class(es) of Lenders were the only Class(es) of Lenders hereunder at the time.


(d)    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 10.02(b), this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (i) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (ii) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders.  In addition, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Term Loans of any Class (the “Refinanced Term Loans”) and, if applicable, related outstanding commitments, with a replacement term loan tranche hereunder (the “Replacement Term Loans”); provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (ii) the Applicable Margin for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the Applicable Margin for such Refinanced Term Loans,
(iii)    the weighted average life to maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing (except to the extent of nominal amortization for periods where amortization has been eliminated as a result of prepayment of the Refinanced Term Loans) and (iv) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of the Refinanced Term Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing.


(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.02, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, in their sole discretion, may amend, modify or supplement any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to amend, modify or supplement such provision or cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, error, defect or inconsistency, so long as such amendment, modification or supplement does not directly and adversely affect the rights or obligations of any Lender or Issuing Lender.


Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, no waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement that has the effect (either immediately or at some later time) of enabling the Borrower to satisfy a condition precedent to the making of a Revolving Loan shall be effective against the Revolving Lenders for purposes of the Revolving Commitments unless the Required Revolving Lenders shall have concurred with such waiver or modification.


SECTION 10.03    Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.


(a)    The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder, (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender, including the reasonable fees, charges and



disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of pocket expenses incurred in connection with (x) any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, foreclosure, winding up or liquidation proceedings, (y) any judicial or regulatory proceedings and (z) any workout, restructuring or other negotiations or proceedings (whether or not any thereof is consummated) and (iv) all costs, expenses, taxes, assessments and other charges incurred in connection with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by the Security Documents or any other document referred to therein.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, expenses being reimbursed by the Borrower under this Section include all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with (i) taxes, fees and other charges for lien searches, filing financing statements and continuations thereof and other actions to perfect, protect and continue the Liens under the Security Documents and (ii) sums paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to take any action required of any Obligor under the Loan Documents that such Obligor fails to pay or take.


(b)    The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract,  tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.


(c)    To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the applicable Swing Line Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or thesuch Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or thesuch Swing Line Lender in its capacity as such.


(d)    To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Obligor shall assert, and each Obligor hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.



(e)    All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.


SECTION 10.04    Successors and Assigns.


(a)    The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) no Obligor may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Obligor without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section.  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.


(b)    Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (other than a natural person) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:


(A)    the Borrower (provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administration Agent within five Business Days after having received notice thereof), provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee;


(B)    with respect to an assignment of a Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment or a Revolving Lender’s obligations in respect of its LC Exposure or Swing Line Exposure, the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lenders; and


(C)    the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of any Term Loan or Incremental Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund.


		
	(i)
	Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:




(A)    except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender  or an Approved Fund of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and  Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 and, after giving effect to such assignment, the assigning Lender shall not have Commitment(s) and/or Loan(s) less than $1,000,000, unless, in each case, each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that
(i)    no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) in the event of concurrent assignments to two or more funds that



are advised or managed by the same investment advisor, all such concurrent assignments shall be aggregated in determining compliance with this minimum assignment requirement;


(B)    each partial assignment of Commitments or Loans of any Class shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of its Commitment and Loans of such Class under this Agreement, provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;


(C)    the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and


(D)    the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.


(ii)    Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 10.03).  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.


(iii)    The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Lender and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.


(iv)    Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register.  No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.


(c)    Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or theany Swing Line Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the



other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  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 the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant.  Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of, and subject to the limitations of, Sections 2.13, 2.14, and
2.15    to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.16(d) as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, and such Lender, each Obligor and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.


		
	(i)
	A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.13 or


2.15 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent.  A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.15(f) as though it were a Lender.


(d)    Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.


(e)    Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan or LC Exposure held by it hereunder to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries without the prior consent of each Lender.


SECTION 10.05    Survival.  All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Obligors herein and in the certificates or other instruments  delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and



shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated.  The provisions of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15, 3.03 and 10.03 and Article IX shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.


SECTION 10.06    Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.  Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement as provided in Section 5.01, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.


SECTION 10.07    Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.


SECTION 10.08    Right of Setoff.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its 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 obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Obligor against any of and all the obligations of any Obligor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured; provided, that no amounts set off with respect to any Guarantor shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Guarantor.  The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.


SECTION 10.09    Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.


(a)    This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.


(b)    Each Obligor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and



determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.  Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any Obligor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.


(c)    Each Obligor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section.  Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
