Section 1.4.  Pro Forma Calculations.  All pro forma computations required to be made hereunder giving effect to any transaction  (including any designation of a Subsidiary as an Excluded Subsidiary) shall be calculated giving pro  forma effect thereto (and to any other such transaction consummated since the first day of the period for  which such pro forma computation is being made and on or prior to the date of such computation) as if  such transaction had occurred on the first day of the period of twelve consecutive calendar months ending  with the most recent calendar month for which financial statements shall have been delivered pursuant to  Section 9.1 or 9.2. (or, prior to the delivery of any such financial statements, ending on June 30, 2021),  and, to the extent applicable, the historical earnings and cash flows associated with the assets subject to  such transaction and any related incurrence or reduction of Indebtedness.  If any Indebtedness bears a  floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be  calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire  period (taking into account any Derivatives Contract applicable to such Indebtedness).  Section 1.5.  Rates.  The interest rate on LIBOR Loans and Base Rate Loans (when determined by reference to clause  (c) of the definition of Base Rate) may be determined by reference to LIBOR, which is derived from the  London interbank offered rate.  The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at  which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank  market.  On March 5, 2021, ICE Benchmark Administration (“IBA”), the administrator of the London  interbank offered rate, and the Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”), the regulatory supervisor of  IBA, announced in public statements (the “Announcements”) that the final publication or  representativeness date for the London interbank offered rate for Dollars for: (a) 1-week and 2-month  tenor settings will be December 31, 2021 and (b) overnight, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month  tenor settings will be June 30, 2023. No successor administrator for IBA was identified in such  Announcements.  As a result, it is possible that commencing immediately after such dates, the London  interbank offered rate for such tenors may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed a  representative reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on LIBOR Loans or Base Rate  Loans (when determined by reference to clause (c) of the definition of Base Rate). There is no assurance  that the dates set forth in the Announcements will not change or that IBA or the FCA will not take further  action that could impact the availability, composition or characteristics of any London interbank offered  rate. Public and private sector industry initiatives have been and continue, as of the date hereof, to be  underway to implement new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank  offered rate.  In the event that the London interbank offered rate or any other then-current Benchmark is  no longer available or in certain other circumstances set forth in Section 5.2(c), such Section 5.2(c)  





 






  - 39 -  79398846.4  provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest.  The Administrative Agent will  notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 5.2(c), of any change to the reference rate upon which the  interest rate on LIBOR Loans and Base Rate Loans (when determined by reference to clause (c) of the  definition of Base Rate) is based.  However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any  responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, (i) the continuation of, administration  of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other  rates in the definition of “LIBOR” or with respect to any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto  (including any then-current Benchmark or any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the  composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any  Benchmark Replacement), as it may or may not be adjusted pursuant to Section 5.2(c), will be similar to,  or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, LIBOR or any other Benchmark, or have the same  volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate or any other Benchmark prior to its  discontinuance or unavailability, or (ii) the effect, implementation or composition of any Benchmark  Replacement Conforming Changes.  The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates or other related entities  may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of a Benchmark, any alternative, successor or  replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto and such  transactions may be adverse to the Borrower.  The Administrative Agent may select information sources  or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any Benchmark, any component definition thereof or  rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall  have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind,  including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or  expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or  calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.    Section 1.6.  Divisions.  For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division  or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws):  (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability  of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the  subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to  have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.  ARTICLE II.  CREDIT FACILITY  Section 2.1.  Revolving Loans.  (a) Making of Revolving Loans.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this  Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 2.15., each Revolving Lender severally and not jointly  agrees to make Revolving Loans denominated in Dollars to the Borrower during the period from and  including the Effective Date to but excluding the Revolving Termination Date, in an aggregate principal  amount at any one time outstanding up to, but not exceeding, the amount of such Lender’s Revolving  Commitment.  Each borrowing of Revolving Loans that are to be Base Rate Loans shall be in an  aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof.  Each  borrowing of Revolving Loans that are to be LIBOR Loans and each Continuation under Section 2.9. of,  and each Conversion under Section 2.10. of Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans into LIBOR  Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of  that amount.  Notwithstanding the immediately preceding two sentences but subject to Section 2.15., a  borrowing of Revolving Loans may be in the aggregate amount of the unused Revolving Commitments.   Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may  borrow, repay and reborrow Revolving Loans.

Prior to delivering a Notice of Borrowing, the Borrower may (without specifying  whether a Revolving Loan will be a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Loan) request that the Administrative  Agent provide the Borrower with the most recent LIBOR available to the Administrative Agent.  The  Administrative Agent shall provide such quoted rate to the Borrower on the date of such request or as  soon as possible thereafter.  If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested LIBOR Loan,  then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing under the  immediately preceding subsection (b), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of  the proposed borrowing.

Subject to fulfillment of all applicable conditions set forth herein, the Administrative  Agent shall make available to the Borrower in the account specified in the Disbursement Instruction  Agreement, not later than 2:00 p.m. Central time on the date of the requested borrowing of Revolving  Loans, the proceeds of such amounts received by the Administrative Agent; provided, however, if at the  time of the making of any Revolving Loans any Swingline Loans shall be outstanding, the proceeds of  such Revolving Loans shall first be applied to repay the outstanding Swingline Loans and then shall be  applied as otherwise requested by the Borrower.  (d) Assumptions Regarding Funding by Revolving Lenders.  With respect to Revolving  Loans to be made after the Effective Date, unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by  any Revolving Lender that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent a Revolving  Loan to be made by such Lender in connection with any borrowing, the Administrative Agent may  assume that such Lender will make the proceeds of such Revolving Loan available to the Administrative  Agent in accordance with this Section, and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to),  in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower the amount of such Revolving Loan to  be provided by such Lender.  In such event, if such Lender does not make available to the Administrative  Agent the proceeds of such Revolving Loan, then such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to  the Administrative Agent on demand the amount of such Revolving Loan with interest thereon, for each  day from and including the date such Revolving Loan is made available to the Borrower but excluding the  date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender,  the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance  with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the  Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.  If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay the  amount of such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or overlapping period, the  Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the  Borrower for such period.  If such Lender pays to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Revolving  Loan, the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan included in the borrowing.  Any  payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a  





 






  - 41 -  79398846.4  Revolving Lender that shall have failed to make available the proceeds of a Revolving Loan to be made  by such Lender.  Section 2.2.  Term Loans.  (a) Making of Term Loans.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, on the Effective  Date, each Term Loan Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make a Term Loan denominated in  Dollars to the Borrower in the aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of such Lender’s Term  Loan Commitment.  Upon a Lender’s funding of its Term Loan, the Term Loan Commitment of such  Lender shall terminate.  (b) Requests for Term Loans.  Not later than 11:00 a.m. Central time at least three (3)  Business Days prior to the anticipated Effective Date, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent  notice requesting that the Term Loan Lenders make the Term Loans on the Effective Date and specifying  the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans to be borrowed, the Type of the Term Loans, and if such  Term Loans are to be LIBOR Loans, the initial Interest Period for the Term Loans.  Such notice shall be  irrevocable once given and binding on the Borrower.  Upon receipt of such notice the Administrative  Agent shall promptly notify each Term Loan Lender.  (c) Funding of Term Loans.  Each Term Loan Lender shall deposit an amount equal to the  Term Loan to be made by such Term Loan Lender to the Borrower with the Administrative Agent at the  Principal Office, in immediately available funds, not later than 11:00 a.m. Central time on the Effective  Date.  Subject to fulfillment of all applicable conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall  make available to the Borrower in the account specified by the Borrower in the Disbursement Instruction  Agreement, not later than 2:00 p.m. Central time on the Effective Date, the proceeds of such amounts  received by the Administrative Agent.  The Borrower may not reborrow any portion of the Term Loans  once repaid.  (d) Obligation of Term Loan Lenders. No Term Loan Lender (which for purposes of this  subsection (d) shall include (if and as applicable) each Additional Term Loan Lender) shall be responsible  for the failure of any other Term Loan Lender to advance its portion of the Term Loans (which, for  purposes of this subsection (d) shall include (if and as applicable) each Additional Term Loan Advance)  or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Term Loan Lender hereunder,  and the failure of any Term Loan Lender to advance its portion of the Term Loans or to perform any other  obligation to be made or performed by it hereunder shall not relieve the obligation of any other Term  Loan Lender to advance its portion of such Term Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or  performed by such other Lender.   Section 2.3.  Letters of Credit.  (a) Letters of Credit.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including,  without limitation, Section 2.15., each Issuing Bank, on behalf of the Revolving Lenders, agrees to issue  for the account of the Borrower during the period from and including the Effective Date to, but excluding,  the date thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Termination Date, one or more standby letters of credit  (including the Existing Letters of Credit, each a “Letter of Credit”) denominated in Dollars up to a  maximum aggregate Stated Amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $40,000,000 as such  amount may be reduced from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof (the “L/C Commitment  Amount”); provided, however, that an Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if,  after giving effect to such issuance, the aggregate Stated Amounts of Letters of Credit issued by such  Issuing Bank and then outstanding would exceed the lesser of (x) one-half of the L/C Commitment  Amount and (y) the Revolving Commitment of such Issuing Bank in its capacity as a Revolving Lender.   





 






  - 42 -  79398846.4  Outstanding Letters of Credit shall reduce availability under the Revolving Facility on a dollar-for-dollar  basis.  The Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder on the  Effective Date.  (b) Terms of Letters of Credit.  At the time of issuance, the amount, form, terms and  conditions of each Letter of Credit, and of any drafts or acceptances thereunder, shall be subject to the  approval of the applicable Issuing Bank and the Borrower, which approval, in the case of each of such  Issuing Bank and the Borrower shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may (i) the expiration date of any Letter of Credit extend  beyond the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Termination Date, or (ii) any Letter of  Credit have a duration in excess of one year; provided, however, a Letter of Credit may contain a  provision providing for the automatic extension of the expiration date in the absence of a notice of non- renewal from the applicable Issuing Bank but in no event shall any such provision permit the extension of  the current expiration date of such Letter of Credit beyond the earlier of (x) the date that is thirty (30)  days prior to the Revolving Termination Date and (y) the date one year after the current expiration date.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Letter of Credit may, as a result of its express terms or as the result of  the effect of an automatic extension provision, have an expiration date of not more than one year beyond  the Revolving Termination Date (any such Letter of Credit being referred to as an “Extended Letter of  Credit”), so long as the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent for its benefit and the benefit of  the applicable Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders no later than thirty (30) days prior to the  Revolving Termination Date, Cash Collateral for such Letter of Credit for deposit into the Letter of Credit  Collateral Account in an amount equal to the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit; provided, that the  obligations of the Borrower under this Section in respect of such Extended Letters of Credit shall survive  the termination of this Agreement and shall remain in effect until no such Extended Letters of Credit  remain outstanding.  If the Borrower fails to provide Cash Collateral with respect to any Extended Letter  of Credit by the date thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Termination Date, such failure shall be  treated as a drawing under such Extended Letter of Credit (in an amount equal to the maximum Stated  Amount of such Letter of Credit), which shall be reimbursed (or participations therein funded) by the  Revolving Lenders in accordance with the immediately following subsections (i) and (j), with the  proceeds being utilized to provide Cash Collateral for such Letter of Credit.  The initial Stated Amount of  each Letter of Credit shall be at least $1,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be acceptable to the  applicable Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower).  (c) Requests for Issuance of Letters of Credit.  The Borrower shall give the Issuing Bank it  desires to issue a Letter of Credit and the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice  promptly confirmed in writing) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance of  such Letter of Credit, such notice to describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Letter of  Credit and the nature of the transactions or obligations proposed to be supported by such Letter of Credit,  and in any event shall set forth with respect to such Letter of Credit the proposed (i) initial Stated  Amount, (ii) beneficiary, and (iii) expiration date. The Borrower shall also execute and deliver such  customary applications and agreements for standby letters of credit, and other forms as requested from  time to time by the applicable Issuing Bank.  Provided the Borrower has given the notice prescribed by  the first sentence of this subsection and delivered such applications and agreements referred to in the  preceding sentence, subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the satisfaction  of any applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.2., the applicable Issuing Bank shall issue the  requested Letter of Credit on the requested date of issuance for the benefit of the stipulated beneficiary  but in no event prior to the date five (5) Business Days following the date after which such Issuing Bank  has received all of the items required to be delivered to it under this subsection.  No Issuing Bank shall at  any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if such issuance would conflict with, or cause such  Issuing Bank or any Revolving Lender to exceed any limits imposed by, any Applicable Law.  References  herein to “issue” and derivations thereof with respect to Letters of Credit shall also include extensions or  





 






  - 43 -  79398846.4  modifications of any outstanding Letters of Credit, which modifications increase the obligations of the  applicable Issuing Bank in respect of such Letters of Credit, unless the context otherwise requires.  Upon  the written request of the Borrower, an Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Borrower a copy of each Letter of  Credit issued by such Issuing Bank within a reasonable time after the date of issuance thereof.  To the  extent any term of a Letter of Credit Document (excluding any certificate or other document presented by  a beneficiary in connection with a drawing under such Letter of Credit) is inconsistent with a term of any  Loan Document, the term of such Loan Document shall control.  The Borrower shall examine the copy of  any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit that is delivered to it by the applicable Issuing  Bank and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other  irregularity, the Borrower will promptly (but in any event, within five (5) Business Days after the later of  (x) receipt by the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit of the original of, or amendment to, such Letter of  Credit, as applicable and (y) receipt by the Borrower of a copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment, as  applicable) notify such Issuing Bank.  The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any  such claim against the applicable Issuing Bank and its correspondents unless such notice is given as  aforesaid.  (d) Reimbursement Obligations.  Upon receipt by an Issuing Bank from the beneficiary of a  Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank of any demand for payment under such Letter of Credit and  such Issuing Bank’s determination that such demand for payment complies with the requirements of such  Letter of Credit, such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of  the amount to be paid by such Issuing Bank as a result of such demand and the date on which payment is  to be made by such Issuing Bank to such beneficiary in respect of such demand; provided, however, that  an Issuing Bank’s failure to give, or delay in giving, such notice shall not discharge the Borrower in any  respect from the applicable Reimbursement Obligation.  The Borrower agrees to pay and reimburse each  Issuing Bank for the amount of each demand for payment under each Letter of Credit issued by such  Issuing Bank at or prior to the date on which payment is to be made by such Issuing Bank to the  beneficiary thereunder, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind.  The  Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and irrespective  of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment the Borrower may have at any time against any Issuing  Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person.   Upon receipt by an Issuing Bank of any payment in respect of any Reimbursement Obligation owing with  respect to a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, such Issuing Bank shall promptly pay to the  Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender that has acquired a participation therein  under the second sentence of the immediately following subsection (i) such Lender’s Revolving  Commitment Percentage of such payment.  (e) Manner of Reimbursement.  Upon its receipt of a notice referred to in the immediately  preceding subsection (d), the Borrower shall advise the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing  Bank whether or not the Borrower intends to borrow hereunder to finance its obligation to reimburse such  Issuing Bank for the amount of the related demand for payment and, if it does, the Borrower shall submit  a timely request for such borrowing as provided in the applicable provisions of this Agreement.  If the  Borrower fails to so advise the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, or if the Borrower  fails to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit by the  date of such payment, the failure of which the applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the  Administrative Agent, then (i) if the applicable conditions contained in Article VI. would permit the  making of Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a borrowing of Revolving  Loans (which shall be Base Rate Loans) in an amount equal to the unpaid Reimbursement Obligation and  the Administrative Agent shall give each Revolving Lender prompt notice of the amount of the Revolving  Loan to be made available to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon Central time and (ii) if  such conditions would not permit the making of Revolving Loans, the provisions of subsection (j) of this  





 






  - 44 -  79398846.4  Section shall apply.  The limitations set forth in the second sentence of Section 2.1.(a) shall not apply to  any borrowing of Base Rate Loans under this subsection.  (f) Effect of Letters of Credit on Revolving Commitments.  Upon the issuance by the  applicable Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been  cancelled, the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to be utilized for all  purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to the product of (i) such Lender’s Revolving  Commitment Percentage and (ii) (A) the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit plus (B) any related  Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding.  (g) Issuing Banks’ Duties Regarding Letters of Credit; Unconditional Nature of  Reimbursement Obligations.  In examining documents presented in connection with drawings under  Letters of Credit and making payments under Letters of Credit issued by an Issuing Bank against such  documents, such Issuing Bank shall only be required to use the same standard of care as it uses in  connection with examining documents presented in connection with drawings under letters of credit in  which it has not sold participations and making payments under such letters of credit.  The Borrower  assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective  beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, none of the  Administrative Agent, any of the Issuing Banks or any of the Lenders shall be responsible for, and the  Borrower’s obligations in respect of Letters of Credit shall not be affected in any manner by, (i) the form,  validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effects of any document submitted by any party in  connection with the application for and issuance of or any drawing honored under any Letter of Credit  even if such document should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate,  fraudulent or forged; (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or  purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit, or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds  thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the  beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon such  Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any  messages, by mail, cable, electronic mail, telex, telecopy or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher;  (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of  any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds thereof;  (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds of any drawing  under any Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the  Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Revolving Lenders.  None of the above shall affect,  impair or prevent the vesting of any of the Issuing Banks’, the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s  rights or powers hereunder.  Any action taken or omitted to be taken by an Issuing Bank under or in  connection with any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, if taken or omitted in the absence of  gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non- appealable judgment), shall not create against such Issuing Bank any liability to the Borrower, the  Administrative Agent, any other Issuing Bank or any Lender.  In this connection, the obligation of the  Borrower to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any drawing made under any Letter of Credit issued by such  Issuing Bank, and to repay any Revolving Loan made pursuant to the second sentence of the immediately  preceding subsection (e), shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in  accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any other applicable Letter of Credit Document under  all circumstances whatsoever, including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (A) any lack of  validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit Document or any term or provisions therein; (B) any  amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the Letter of Credit Documents;  (C) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time  against such Issuing Bank, any other Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any beneficiary  of a Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions  contemplated hereby or in the Letter of Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction; (D) any breach of  





 






  - 45 -  79398846.4  contract or dispute between or among the Borrower, any Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any  Lender or any other Person; (E) any demand, statement or any other document presented under a Letter of  Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein or  made in connection therewith being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (F) any  non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds of any  drawing under such Letter of Credit; (G) payment by such Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit  against presentation of a draft or certificate which does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter  of Credit; and (H) any other act, omission to act, delay or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the  provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable defense to or discharge of, or provide a right of  setoff against, the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary  contained in this Section or Section 13.10., but not in limitation of the Borrower’s unconditional  obligation to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for any drawing made under a Letter of Credit as  provided in this Section and to repay any Revolving Loan made pursuant to the second sentence of the  immediately preceding subsection (e), the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify the  Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Revolving Lender in respect of any liability incurred by  the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Revolving Lender arising solely out of the gross  negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender in  respect of a Letter of Credit as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable  judgment.  Except as otherwise provided in this Section, nothing in this Section shall affect any rights the  Borrower may have with respect to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative  Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Revolving Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit.  (h) Amendments, Etc.  The issuance by an Issuing Bank of any amendment, supplement or  other modification to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank shall be subject to the same  conditions applicable under this Agreement to the issuance of new Letters of Credit (including, without  limitation, that the request therefor be made through the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative  Agent), and no such amendment, supplement or other modification shall be issued unless either (i) the  respective Letter of Credit affected thereby would have complied with such conditions had it originally  been issued hereunder in such amended, supplemented or modified form or (ii) the Administrative Agent  and the Revolving Lenders, if any, required by Section 13.7. shall have consented thereto.  In connection  with any such amendment, supplement or other modification, the Borrower shall pay the fees, if any,  payable under the last sentence of Section 3.5.(c).  (i) Revolving Lenders’ Participation in Letters of Credit.  Immediately upon the issuance by  an Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have absolutely,  irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from such Issuing Bank, without recourse or  warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving  Commitment Percentage of the liability of such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit and  each Revolving Lender thereby shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary  obligor and not as surety, and shall be unconditionally obligated to such Issuing Bank to pay and  discharge when due, such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of such Issuing Bank’s  liability under such Letter of Credit for which such Issuing Bank is not reimbursed in full by the  Borrower through a Base Rate Loan or otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  In  addition, upon the making of each payment by a Revolving Lender to the Administrative Agent for the  account of an Issuing Bank in respect of any Letter of Credit issued by it pursuant to the immediately  following subsection (j), such Revolving Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the  part of such Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or such Revolving Lender, acquire (i) a participation  in an amount equal to such payment in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to such Issuing Bank by the  Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit and (ii) a participation in a percentage equal to such  Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage in any interest or other amounts payable by the  Borrower in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation (other than the Fees payable to such Issuing Bank  





 






  - 46 -  79398846.4  pursuant to the second and the last sentences of Section 3.5.(c)).  Upon receipt by the applicable Issuing  Bank of any payment in respect of any Reimbursement Obligation, such Issuing Bank shall promptly pay  to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender that has acquired a participation  therein under the second sentence of this subsection (i), such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment  Percentage of such payment.  (j) Payment Obligation of Revolving Lenders.  Each Revolving Lender severally agrees to  pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of an Issuing Bank, on demand or upon notice in  accordance with subsection (e) above in immediately available funds in Dollars the amount of such  Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of each drawing paid by such Issuing Bank  under each Letter of Credit issued by it to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrower  pursuant to the immediately preceding subsection (d); provided, however, that in respect of any drawing  under any Letter of Credit, the maximum amount that any Revolving Lender shall be required to fund,  whether as a Revolving Loan or as a participation, shall not exceed such Revolving Lender’s Revolving  Commitment Percentage of such drawing except as otherwise provided in Section 3.9.(d).  If the notice  referenced in the second sentence of Section 2.3.(e) is received by a Revolving Lender not later than  11:00 a.m. Central time, then such Revolving Lender shall make such payment available to the  Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. Central time on the date of demand therefor; otherwise,  such payment shall be made available to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. Central time  on the next succeeding Business Day.  Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make such payments to the  Administrative Agent under this subsection, whether as a Base Rate Loan or as a participation, and the  Administrative Agent’s right to receive the same for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, shall be  absolute, irrevocable and unconditional and shall not be affected in any way by any circumstance  whatsoever, including, without limitation, (i) the failure of any other Revolving Lender to make its  payment under this subsection, (ii) the financial condition of the Borrower or any other Loan Party,  (iii) the existence of any Default or Event of Default, including any Event of Default described in  Section 11.1.(e) or (f), (iv) the termination of the Revolving Commitments or (v) the delivery of Cash  Collateral in respect of any Extended Letter of Credit.  Each such payment to the Administrative Agent  for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding  or deduction whatsoever.  (k) Information to Lenders.  Promptly following any change in Letters of Credit outstanding,  the applicable Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, who shall promptly deliver the  same to each Revolving Lender and the Borrower, a notice describing the aggregate amount of all Letters  of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank outstanding at such time.  Upon the request of the Administrative  Agent from time to time, an Issuing Bank shall deliver any other information reasonably requested by the  Administrative Agent (or a Revolving Lender through the Administrative Agent) with respect to such  Letter of Credit that is the subject of the request.  Other than as set forth in this subsection, the Issuing  Banks and the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to notify the Lenders regarding the issuance or  other matters regarding Letters of Credit issued hereunder.  The failure of any Issuing Bank or the  Administrative Agent to perform its requirements under this subsection shall not relieve any Revolving  Lender from its obligations under the immediately preceding subsection (j).  (l) Extended Letters of Credit.  Each Revolving Lender confirms that its obligations under  the immediately preceding subsections (i) and (j) shall be reinstated in full and apply if the delivery of any  Cash Collateral in respect of an Extended Letter of Credit is subsequently invalidated, declared to be  fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in  connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise.  





 






  - 47 -  79398846.4  Section 2.4.  Swingline Loans.  (a) Swingline Loans.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, including, without  limitation Section 2.15., the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans denominated in Dollars to  the Borrower, during the period from the Effective Date to but excluding the Swingline Maturity Date, in  an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to, but not exceeding, $30,000,000 (the  “Swingline Availability”), as such amount may be reduced from time to time in accordance with the  terms hereof; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be obligated to make Swingline Loans in an  aggregate outstanding principal amount in excess of an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Swingline  Availability and (ii) an amount equal to (x) the Revolving Commitment of the Swingline Lender in its  capacity as a Revolving Lender minus (y) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans  (including Swingline Loans) and Letter of Credit Liabilities made by the Swingline Lender in its capacity  as a Revolving Lender.  If at any time the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans outstanding  at such time exceeds the Swingline Availability at such time, the Borrower shall immediately pay the  Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender the amount of such excess.  Subject to the  terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans  hereunder.  Outstanding Swingline Loans shall reduce availability under the Revolving Facility on a  dollar-for-dollar basis.  The borrowing of a Swingline Loan shall not constitute usage of any Revolving  Lender’s Revolving Commitment for purposes of calculation of the fee payable under Section 3.5.(b).  (b) Procedure for Borrowing Swingline Loans.  The Borrower shall give the Administrative  Agent and the Swingline Lender notice pursuant to a Notice of Swingline Borrowing or telephonic notice  of each borrowing of a Swingline Loan.  Each Notice of Swingline Borrowing shall be delivered to the  Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. Central time on the proposed  date of such borrowing.  Any telephonic notice shall include all information to be specified in a written  Notice of Swingline Borrowing and shall be promptly confirmed in writing by the Borrower pursuant to a  Notice of Swingline Borrowing sent to the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent by telecopy,  electronic mail or other similar form of communication on the same day of the giving of such telephonic  notice.  Not later than 1:00 p.m. Central time on the date of the requested Swingline Loan and subject to  satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 6.2. for such borrowing, the Swingline Lender  will make the proceeds of such Swingline Loan available to the Borrower in Dollars, in immediately  available funds, at the account specified by the Borrower in the Disbursement Instruction Agreement.  (c) Interest.  Swingline Loans shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate as  in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Facility  or at such other rate or rates as the Borrower and the Swingline Lender may agree from time to time in  writing.  Interest on Swingline Loans is solely for the account of the Swingline Lender (except to the  extent a Revolving Lender acquires a participating interest in a Swingline Loan pursuant to the  immediately following subsection (e)).  All accrued and unpaid interest on Swingline Loans shall be  payable on the dates and in the manner provided in Section 2.5. with respect to interest on Base Rate  Loans (except as the Swingline Lender and the Borrower may otherwise agree in writing in connection  with any particular Swingline Loan).  (d) Swingline Loan Amounts, Etc.  Each Swingline Loan shall be in the minimum amount of  $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof, or such other minimum amounts agreed  to by the Swingline Lender and the Borrower.  Any voluntary prepayment of a Swingline Loan must be in  integral multiples of $100,000 or the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Swingline Loans (or  such other minimum amounts upon which the Swingline Lender and the Borrower may agree) and in  connection with any such prepayment, the Borrower must give the Swingline Lender and the  Administrative Agent prior written notice thereof no later than 12:00 noon Central time on the day prior  





 






  - 48 -  79398846.4  to the date of such prepayment.  The Swingline Loans shall, in addition to this Agreement, be evidenced  by the Swingline Note.  (e) Repayment and Participations of Swingline Loans.  The Borrower agrees to repay each  Swingline Loan within one (1) Business Day of demand therefor by the Swingline Lender and, in any  event, within five (5) Business Days after the date such Swingline Loan was made (or, if earlier, the date  following the making of such Swingline Loan on which any Revolving Loan shall be made pursuant to  Section 2.1.); provided, that the proceeds of a Swingline Loan may not be used to pay a Swingline Loan.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and  all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Swingline Loans on the Swingline Maturity Date (or such earlier  date as the Swingline Lender and the Borrower may agree in writing).  In lieu of demanding repayment of  any outstanding Swingline Loan from the Borrower, the Swingline Lender may, on behalf of the  Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Swingline Lender to act on its behalf), request a  borrowing of Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans from the Revolving Lenders in an amount equal  to the principal balance of such Swingline Loan.  The amount limitations contained in the second  sentence of Section 2.1.(a) shall not apply to any borrowing of such Revolving Loans made pursuant to  this subsection.  The Swingline Lender shall give notice to the Administrative Agent of any such  borrowing of Revolving Loans not later than 11:00 a.m. Central time at least one (1) Business Day prior  to the proposed date of such borrowing.  Promptly after receipt of such notice of borrowing of Revolving  Loans from the Swingline Lender under the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent  shall notify each Revolving Lender of the proposed borrowing.  Not later than 11:00 a.m. Central time on  the proposed date of such borrowing, each Revolving Lender will make available to the Administrative  Agent at the Principal Office for the account of the Swingline Lender, in immediately available funds, the  proceeds of the Revolving Loan to be made by such Lender.  The Administrative Agent shall pay the  proceeds of such Revolving Loans to the Swingline Lender, which shall apply such proceeds to repay  such Swingline Loan.  If the Revolving Lenders are prohibited from making Revolving Loans required to  be made under this subsection for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, the existence of  any of the Defaults or Events of Default described in Sections 11.1.(e) or (f), each Revolving Lender shall  purchase from the Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and  participation to the extent of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of such Swingline Loan,  by directly purchasing a participation in such Swingline Loan in such amount and paying the proceeds  thereof to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender in Dollars and in  immediately available funds.  A Revolving Lender’s obligation to purchase such a participation in a  Swingline Loan shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance  whatsoever, including, without limitation, (i) any claim of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or  other right which such Lender or any other Person may have or claim against the Administrative Agent,  the Swingline Lender or any other Person whatsoever, (ii) the existence of a Default or Event of Default  (including, without limitation, any of the Defaults or Events of Default described in Sections 11.1. (e) or  (f)), or the termination of any Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment, (iii) the existence (or alleged  existence) of an event or condition which has had or could have a Material Adverse Effect, (iv) any  breach of any Loan Document by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Borrower or any other Loan  Party, or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the  foregoing.  If such amount is not in fact made available to the Swingline Lender by any Revolving  Lender, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender,  together with accrued interest thereon for each day from the date of demand thereof, at the Federal Funds  Rate.  If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Swingline Lender’s demand therefor,  and until such time as such Lender makes the required payment, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to  continue to have outstanding Swingline Loans in the amount of such unpaid participation obligation for  all purposes of the Loan Documents (other than those provisions requiring the other Revolving Lenders to  purchase a participation therein).  Further, such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all  payments made of principal and interest on its Revolving Loans, and any other amounts due it hereunder,  





 






  - 49 -  79398846.4  to the Swingline Lender to fund Swingline Loans in the amount of the participation in Swingline Loans  that such Lender failed to purchase pursuant to this Section until such amount has been purchased (as a  result of such assignment or otherwise).  Section 2.5.  Rates and Payment of Interest on Loans.  (a) Rates.  The Borrower promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of  each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by such Lender for the period  from and including the date of the making of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan shall be paid  in full, at the following per annum rates:  (i) during such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate (as in  effect from time to time), plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans under the applicable  Facility; and  (ii) during such periods as such Loan is a LIBOR Loan, at LIBOR for such Loan for  the Interest Period therefor, plus the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans under the applicable  Facility.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, while an Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay to the  Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender and each Issuing Bank, as the case may be, interest  at the Post-Default Rate on the outstanding principal amount of any Loan made by such Lender, on all  Reimbursement Obligations and on any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder or under the  Notes held by such Lender to or for the account of such Lender (including, without limitation, accrued but  unpaid interest to the extent permitted under Applicable Law).  (b) Payment of Interest. All accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal amount  of each Loan shall be payable (i) with respect to any Base Rate Loan, monthly in arrears on the first day  of each month, commencing with the first full calendar month occurring after the Effective Date and  (ii) with respect to any LIBOR Loan, the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case  of any LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period of more than three months’ duration, each day prior to the last  day of such Interest Period that occurs at three months’ duration after the first day of such Interest Period  and (iii) on any date on which the principal balance of such Loan is due and payable in full (whether at  maturity, due to acceleration or otherwise).  Interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable  from time to time on demand.  All determinations by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate  hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on the Lenders and the Borrower for all purposes, absent  manifest error.  (c) Borrower Information Used to Determine Applicable Interest Rates.  The parties  understand that the applicable interest rate for the Obligations and certain fees set forth herein may be  determined and/or adjusted from time to time based upon certain financial ratios and/or other information  to be provided or certified to the Lenders by the Borrower or the Parent on behalf of the Borrower (the  “Borrower Information”).  If it is subsequently determined that any such Borrower Information was  incorrect (for whatever reason, including, without limitation because of a subsequent restatement of  earnings by the Borrower) at the time it was delivered to the Administrative Agent, and if the applicable  interest rate or fees calculated for any period were lower than they should have been had the correct  information been timely provided, then, such interest rate and such fees for such period shall be  automatically recalculated using correct Borrower Information.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly  notify the Borrower in writing of any additional interest and fees due because of such recalculation, and  the Borrower shall pay such additional interest or fees due to the Administrative Agent, for the account of  each Lender, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such written notice.  Any recalculation of interest  





 






  - 50 -  79398846.4  or fees required by this provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and this provision shall  not in any way limit any of the Administrative Agent’s, any Issuing Bank’s, or any Lender’s other rights  under this Agreement.  Section 2.6.  Number of Interest Periods.  There may be no more than five (5) different Interest Periods for LIBOR Loans outstanding at the  same time.  Section 2.7.  Repayment of Loans.  (a) Revolving Loans.  The Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of,  and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Revolving Loans on the Revolving Termination Date.  (b) Term Loans.  The Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and  all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Term Loans on the Term Loan Termination Date.  Section 2.8.  Prepayments.  (a) Optional.  Subject to Section 5.4., the Borrower may prepay any Loan at any time  without premium or penalty.  The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least two (2) Business  Day prior written notice of the prepayment of any Loan.  Each voluntary prepayment of Loans shall be in  an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof or, if  less, the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans outstanding.  (b) Mandatory.  (i) Revolving Commitment Overadvance.  If at any time the aggregate principal  amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans, together with the aggregate  amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities, exceeds the aggregate amount of the Revolving  Commitments, the Borrower shall immediately upon demand pay to the Administrative Agent  for the account of the Revolving Lenders, the amount of such excess.  (ii) Application of Mandatory Prepayments.  Amounts paid under the preceding  subsection (b)(i) shall be applied to pay all amounts of principal outstanding on the Loans and  any Reimbursement Obligations pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2. and if any Letters of  Credit are outstanding at such time, the remainder, if any, shall be deposited into the Letter of  Credit Collateral Account for application to any Reimbursement Obligations.  If the Borrower  is required to pay any outstanding LIBOR Loans by reason of this Section prior to the end of  the applicable Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall pay all amounts due under  Section 5.4.  (c) No Effect on Derivatives Contracts.  No repayment or prepayment of the Loans pursuant  to this Section shall affect any of the Borrower’s obligations under any Derivatives Contracts entered into  with respect to the Loans.  Section 2.9.  Continuation.  So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, the Borrower may on any Business Day, with  respect to any LIBOR Loan, elect to maintain such LIBOR Loan or any portion thereof as a LIBOR Loan  by selecting a new Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan.  Each Continuation of a LIBOR Loan shall be in  





 






  - 51 -  79398846.4  an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that  amount, and each new Interest Period selected under this Section shall commence on the last day of the  immediately preceding Interest Period.  Each selection of a new Interest Period shall be made by the  Borrower giving to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Continuation not later than 11:00 a.m. Central  time on the third Business Day prior to the date of any such Continuation.  Such notice by the Borrower  of a Continuation shall be by telephone, promptly confirmed in writing, or by telecopy, electronic mail or  other similar form of communication in the form of a Notice of Continuation, specifying (a) the proposed  date of such Continuation, (b) the LIBOR Loans and portions thereof subject to such Continuation and  (c) the duration of the selected Interest Period, all of which shall be specified in such manner as is  necessary to comply with all limitations on Loans outstanding hereunder.  Each Notice of Continuation  shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given.  Promptly after receipt of a Notice of  Continuation, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed Continuation.  If the  Borrower shall fail to select in a timely manner a new Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan in accordance  with this Section, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor,  continue as a LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period of one month; provided, however that if a Default or  Event of Default exists, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period  therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Loan notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 2.10. or the  Borrower’s failure to comply with any of the terms of such Section.  Section 2.10.  Conversion.  The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon the Borrower’s giving of a Notice of Conversion  to the Administrative Agent by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication, Convert  all or a portion of a Loan of one Type into a Loan of another Type; provided, however, a Base Rate Loan  may not be Converted into a LIBOR Loan if a Default or Event of Default exists.  Each Conversion of  Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral  multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount.  Each such Notice of Conversion shall be given not later  than 11:00 a.m. Central time three (3) Business Days prior to the date of any proposed Conversion.   Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of  the proposed Conversion.  Subject to the restrictions specified above, each Notice of Conversion shall be  by telephone promptly confirmed in writing, or by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of  communication in the form of a Notice of Conversion specifying (a) the requested date of such  Conversion, (b) the Type of Loan to be Converted, (c) the portion of such Type of Loan to be Converted,  (d) the Type of Loan such Loan is to be Converted into and (e) if such Conversion is into a LIBOR Loan,  the requested duration of the Interest Period of such Loan.  Each Notice of Conversion shall be  irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given.  Section 2.11.  Notes.  (a) Notes.  To the extent requested by any Revolving Lender, the Revolving Loans made by  each Revolving Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a Revolving Note,  payable to the order of such Revolving Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of its Revolving  Commitment as originally in effect and otherwise duly completed.  To the extent requested by any  Swingline Lender, the Swingline Loans made by the Swingline Lender to the Borrower shall, in addition  to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a Swingline Note payable to the order of the Swingline Lender.   To the extent requested by any Term Loan Lender, the Term Loan made by such Term Loan Lender shall,  in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a Term Note, payable to the order of such Term Loan  Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of its Term Loan and otherwise duly completed.  (b) Records.  The date, amount, interest rate, Type and duration of Interest Periods (if  applicable) of each Loan made by each Lender to the Borrower, and each payment made on account of  





 






  - 52 -  79398846.4  the principal thereof, shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender  and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business.  The accounts or records maintained  by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Any failure to so  record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower  hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations.  In the event of any conflict between  the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative  Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the  absence of manifest error.  (c) Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Notes.  Upon receipt by the Borrower of (i) written  notice from a Lender that a Note of such Lender has been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated, and  (ii)(A) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, an unsecured agreement of indemnity from such Lender in  form reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, or (B) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and  cancellation of such Note, the Borrower shall at its own expense execute and deliver to such Lender a  new Note dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.  Section 2.12.  Voluntary Reductions of the Revolving Commitments.  The Borrower shall have the right to terminate or reduce the aggregate unused amount of the  Revolving Commitments (for which purpose use of the Revolving Commitments shall be deemed to  include the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities and the aggregate principal amount of all  outstanding Swingline Loans) at any time and from time to time without penalty or premium upon not  less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent of each such termination  or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date thereof and the amount of any such reduction  (which in the case of any partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall not be less than  $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess of that amount in the aggregate) and shall be  irrevocable once given and effective only upon receipt by the Administrative Agent (“Commitment  Reduction Notice”); provided, however, the Borrower may not reduce the aggregate amount of the  Revolving Commitments below $50,000,000 unless the Borrower is terminating the Revolving  Commitments in full.  Promptly after receipt of a Commitment Reduction Notice the Administrative  Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed termination or Revolving Commitment reduction.   Without limitation of the provisions of Section 2.17., the Revolving Commitments, once reduced or  terminated pursuant to this Section, may not be increased or reinstated.  Upon the effective date of such  reduction or termination, the Borrower shall pay all interest and fees on the Revolving Loans accrued to  the date of such reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments to the Administrative Agent for  the account of the Revolving Lenders, including but not limited to any applicable compensation due to  each Revolving Lender in accordance with Section 5.4.  Section 2.13.  Extension of Revolving Termination Date.  The Borrower shall have the right, exercisable one time, to extend the Revolving Termination  Date by one year.  The Borrower may exercise such right only by executing and delivering to the  Administrative Agent at least thirty (30) days but not more than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to  the current Revolving Termination Date, a written request for such extension (an “Extension Request”).   The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders if it receives an Extension Request  promptly upon receipt thereof.  Subject to satisfaction of the following conditions, the Revolving  Termination Date shall be extended for one year effective upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of the  Extension Request and payment of the fee referred to in the following clause (y): (x) immediately prior to  such extension and immediately after giving effect thereto, (A) no Default or Event of Default shall exist  and (B) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower and each other Loan  Party in the Loan Documents to which any of them is a party, shall be true and correct in all material  





 






  - 53 -  79398846.4  respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such  representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date of such extension  with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date except to the extent that such  representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such  representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such  earlier date (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such  representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of such earlier date) and  except for changes in factual circumstances not expressly prohibited under the Loan Documents and  (y) the Borrower shall have paid the Fees payable under Section 3.5.(d).  At any time prior to the  effectiveness of any such extension, upon the Administrative Agent’s request, the Borrower shall deliver  to the Administrative Agent a certificate from the chief executive officer or chief financial officer  certifying the matters referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (x)(A) and (x)(B).  Section 2.14.  Expiration Date of Letters of Credit Past Revolving Commitment Termination.  If on the date the Revolving Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero (whether  voluntarily, by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default or otherwise), there are any Letters of  Credit outstanding hereunder and the aggregate Stated Amount of such Letters of Credit exceeds the  balance of available funds on deposit in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, then the Borrower shall,  on such date, pay to the Administrative Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders and the  Issuing Banks, for deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, an amount of money equal to the  amount of such excess.  Section 2.15.  Amount Limitations.  Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no Lender shall  be required to make a Loan, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue a Letter of Credit and no reduction  of the Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section 2.12. shall take effect, if (a) immediately after the  making of such Loan, the issuance of such Letter of Credit or such reduction in the Revolving  Commitments, or (b) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans and Swingline  Loans, together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities, would exceed the aggregate  amount of the Revolving Commitments at such time.  Section 2.16.  Funds Transfer Disbursements.  The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of any Loan  made by the Lenders or any of their Affiliates pursuant to the Loan Documents as requested by an  authorized representative of the Borrower to any of the accounts designated in the Disbursement  Instruction Agreement.    Section 2.17.  Increase in Revolving Commitments; Additional Term Loan Advances.  (a) The Borrower shall have the right to request increases in the aggregate amount of the  Revolving Commitments, to request Additional Term Loan Advances in respect of the Term Loan  Facility or to add one or more new term loan tranches (“Additional Tranche Loans”, together with the  Additional Term Loan Advances, the “Incremental Term Loans”, and together with increases to the  Revolving Commitments, the “Incremental Credit Facilities”) by providing written notice to the  Administrative Agent, which notice shall be irrevocable once given; provided, however, that, after giving  effect to any such Incremental Credit Facilities, the aggregate amount of all such Incremental Credit  Facilities shall not exceed $250,000,000.  Each such Incremental Credit Facility must be in an aggregate  minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof.  The  





 






  - 54 -  79398846.4  Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, shall manage all aspects of the syndication of  such Incremental Credit Facilities, including decisions as to the selection of the existing Lenders and/or  other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders to be approached with respect to such  Incremental Credit Facilities among such existing Lenders and/or other banks, financial institutions and  other institutional lenders.  No Lender shall be obligated in any way whatsoever to increase its Revolving  Commitment or to provide any other Incremental Credit Facility, as applicable, and any new Lender  becoming a party to this Agreement in connection with any such Incremental Credit Facility must be an  Eligible Assignee.    (b) If a Person becomes a new Revolving Lender under this Agreement, or if any existing  Revolving Lender is increasing its Revolving Commitment, such Lender shall on the date it becomes a  Revolving Lender hereunder (or in the case of an existing Revolving Lender, increases its Revolving  Commitment) (and as a condition thereto) purchase from the other Revolving Lenders its Revolving  Commitment Percentage (determined with respect to the Revolving Lenders’ respective Revolving  Commitments and after giving effect to the increase of Revolving Commitments) of any outstanding  Revolving Loans, by making available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such other  Revolving Lenders, in same day funds, an amount equal to the sum of (A) the portion of the outstanding  principal amount of such Revolving Loans to be purchased by such Lender, plus (B) the aggregate  amount of payments previously made by the other Revolving Lenders under Section 2.3.(j) that have not  been repaid, plus (C) interest accrued and unpaid to and as of such date on such portion of the outstanding  principal amount of such Revolving Loans.  The Borrower shall pay to the Revolving Lenders amounts  payable, if any, to such Revolving Lenders under Section 5.4. as a result of the prepayment of any such  Revolving Loans.    (c) If pursuant to this Section 2.17. one or more Additional Term Loan Lenders shall agree to  make an applicable Additional Term Loan Advance, such Additional Term Loan Advance shall be made,  on a date agreed to by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Additional Term Loan Lender, in  accordance with the following conditions and procedures:  (i) Not later than 11:00 a.m. Central time at least three (3) Business Days prior to  the requested date of a borrowing of Incremental Term Loans, the Borrower shall give the  Administrative Agent notice requesting that the Additional Term Loan Lenders make the  Incremental Term Loans on such requested date and specifying the aggregate principal amount of  Incremental Term Loans to be borrowed, the Type of Incremental Term Loans, and if such  Incremental Term Loans are to be LIBOR Loans, the initial Interest Period for the Incremental  Term Loans.  Such notice shall be irrevocable once given and binding on the Borrower.  Upon  receipt of such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Additional Term Loan  Lender.  (ii) Each Additional Term Loan Lender shall deposit an amount equal to the  Incremental Term Loan to be made by such Additional Term Loan Lender to the Borrower with  the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office, in immediately available funds, not later than  11:00 a.m. Central time on the requested date of such borrowing.  Subject to fulfillment of all  applicable conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall make available to the  Borrower in the account specified by the Borrower in the Disbursement Instruction Agreement,  not later than 2:00 p.m. Central time on such requested date, the proceeds of such amounts  received by the Administrative Agent.  The Borrower may not reborrow any portion of the  Incremental Term Loans once repaid.  (d) Incremental Term Loans and increases in the Revolving Commitments may be made  hereunder pursuant to an amendment or an amendment and restatement (an “Incremental Facility  





 






  - 55 -  79398846.4  Amendment”) of this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the  Borrower, each Lender participating in such tranche and the Administrative Agent.  Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary in Section 13.7., the Incremental Facility Amendment may, without the consent  of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may  be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the  provisions of this Section 2.17.  Each Incremental Term Loan will mature and amortize in a manner  reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, each Lender participating in such Tranche and the  Borrower, but will not in any event have a shorter weighted average life to maturity than the remaining  weighted average life to maturity of the initial Term Loans hereunder or a maturity date earlier than the  Term Loan Termination Date.    (e) Loans made pursuant to any increase in the Revolving Commitments and the  Additional Term Loan Advances shall rank pari passu in right of payment, and shall be guaranteed on a  pari passu basis, with the Revolving Loans and the Term Loans.  (f) The effectiveness of Incremental Credit Facilities under this Section is subject to the  following conditions precedent:  (w) the approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or  delayed) of any new Lender (other than an Eligible Assignee) by the Administrative Agent and, with  respect to any increase in the Revolving Commitments, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank,  (x) no Default or Event of Default shall be in existence on the effective date of such Incremental Credit  Facility, (y) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower and any other  Loan Party in any Loan Document to which such Loan Party is a party shall be true and correct in all  material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which  case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on the effective date of such  increase except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier  date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material  respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such  representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of such earlier date) and  except for changes in factual circumstances specifically and expressly permitted hereunder, and (z) the  Administrative Agent shall have received each of the following, in form and substance satisfactory to the  Administrative Agent:  (i) if not previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, copies certified by the  Secretary or Assistant Secretary of (A) all partnership or other necessary action taken by the Borrower to  authorize such Incremental Credit Facility and (B) all corporate, partnership, member or other necessary  action taken by each Guarantor authorizing the guaranty of such increase; (ii) a supplement to this  Agreement executed by the Borrower and any Lender providing such Incremental Credit Facility, which  supplement may include such amendments to this Agreement as the Administrative Agent deems  reasonably necessary or appropriate to implement the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.17.,  together with the consent of the Guarantors thereto; (iii) an opinion of counsel to the Borrower and the  Guarantors, and addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders covering such matters as  reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent; (iv) if requested by any new Revolving Lender or any  existing Revolving Lender increasing its Revolving Commitment, a new Revolving Note executed by the  Borrower, payable to any new Revolving Lenders and replacement Revolving Notes executed by the  Borrower, payable to any existing Revolving Lenders increasing their Revolving Commitments, in the  amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment at the time of the effectiveness of the  applicable increase in the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments; (v) if requested by any  Additional Term Loan Lender, a new Term Note or replacement Term Note executed by the Borrower  payable to such Additional Term Loan Lender in the amount of such Lender’s Term Loans; and (vi) a  Compliance Certificate calculated on a pro forma basis as of the last day of the Borrower’s most recently  ended fiscal quarter.  In connection with any Incremental Credit Facility pursuant to this Section, any  Lender becoming a party hereto shall (1) execute such documents and agreements as the Administrative  Agent may reasonably request and (2) in the case of any Lender that is organized under the laws of a  





 






  - 56 -  79398846.4  jurisdiction outside of the United States of America, provide to the Administrative Agent, its name,  address, tax identification number and/or such other information as shall be necessary for the  Administrative Agent to comply with “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and  regulations, including, without limitation, the Patriot Act.    ARTICLE III.   PAYMENTS, FEES AND OTHER GENERAL PROVISIONS  Section 3.1.  Payments.  (a) Payments by Borrower.  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of  principal, interest, Fees and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes  or any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without setoff,  deduction or counterclaim (excluding Taxes required to be withheld pursuant to Section 3.10.), to the  Administrative Agent at the Principal Office, not later than 1:00 p.m. Central time on the date on which  such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed  to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day).  Subject to Section 11.5., the Borrower shall, at  the time of making each payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, specify to the  Administrative Agent the amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be  applied.  Each payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a Lender under this  Agreement or any Note shall be paid to such Lender by wire transfer of immediately available funds in  accordance with the wiring instructions provided by such Lender to the Administrative Agent from time  to time, for the account of such Lender at the applicable Lending Office of such Lender.  Each payment  received by the Administrative Agent for the account of any Issuing Bank under this Agreement shall be  paid to such Issuing Bank by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the wiring  instructions provided by such Issuing Bank to the Administrative Agent from time to time, for the account  of such Issuing Bank.  In the event the Administrative Agent fails to pay such amounts to such Lender or  such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such amounts, the  Administrative Agent shall pay interest on such amount until paid at a rate per annum equal to the Federal  Funds Rate from time to time in effect.  If the due date of any payment under this Agreement or any other  Loan Document would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day such date shall be extended to  the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall continue to accrue at the rate, if any, applicable to  such payment for the period of such extension.  (b) Presumptions Regarding Payments by Borrower.  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 any Issuing Bank 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 (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon  such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or any such Issuing Bank, 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 each such  Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent on demand that  amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, 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 greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the  Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.  Section 3.2.  Pro Rata Treatment.  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) each borrowing from the Revolving Lenders  under Sections 2.1.(a), 2.2.(e) and 2.3.(e) shall be made from the Revolving Lenders, each payment of the  fees under Sections 3.5.(a), 3.5.(b), the first sentence of 3.5.(c), and 3.5.(d) shall be made for the account  





 






  - 57 -  79398846.4  of the Revolving Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Revolving  Commitments under Section 2.12. shall be applied to the respective Revolving Commitments of the  Revolving Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Revolving Commitments;  (b) each payment or prepayment of principal of Revolving Loans shall be made for the account of the  Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Revolving  Loans held by them, provided that, subject to Section 3.9., if immediately prior to giving effect to any  such payment in respect of any Revolving Loans the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving  Loans shall not be held by the Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving  Commitments in effect at the time such Revolving Loans were made, then such payment shall be applied  to the Revolving Loans in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding  principal amount of the Revolving Loans being held by the Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance  with their respective Revolving Commitments; (c) the making of Term Loans under Section 2.3.(a) shall  be made from the Term Loan Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Term Loan  Commitments; (d) each payment or prepayment of principal of Term Loans shall be made for the account  of the Term Loan Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the  Term Loans held by them; (e) each payment of interest on Revolving Loans or Term Loans shall be made  for the account of the Revolving Lenders or Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, pro rata in accordance  with the amounts of interest on such Revolving Loans or Term Loans, as applicable, then due and payable  to the respective Lenders; (f) the making, Conversion and Continuation of Revolving Loans or Term  Loans of a particular Type (other than Conversions provided for by Sections 5.1.(c) and 5.5.) shall be  made pro rata among the Revolving Lenders or Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, according to the  amounts of their respective Revolving Loans or Term Loans, as applicable, and the then current Interest  Period for each Lender’s portion of each such Loan of such Type shall be coterminous; (g) the Revolving  Lenders’ participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Swingline Loans under Section 2.4.,  shall be in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages; and (h) the Revolving  Lenders’ participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Letters of Credit under Section 2.3., shall  be in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages.  All payments of principal,  interest, fees and other amounts in respect of the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the  Swingline Lender only (except to the extent any Lender shall have acquired a participating interest in any  such Swingline Loan pursuant to Section 2.4.(e), in which case such payments shall be pro rata in  accordance with such participating interests).  Section 3.3.  Sharing of Payments, Etc.  If a Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan made by it to the  Borrower under this Agreement or shall obtain payment on any other Obligation owing by the Borrower  or any other Loan Party through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar  right or otherwise or through voluntary prepayments directly to a Lender or other payments made by or  on behalf of the Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Lender (other than any payment in respect of  Specified Derivatives Obligations) not in accordance with the terms of this Agreement resulting in such  Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest  thereon or other such Obligation greater than the share thereof as provided in Section 3.2. or  Section 11.4., as applicable, and such payment should be distributed to the Lenders in accordance with  Section 3.2. or Section 11.5., as applicable, such Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify  the Administrative Agent and (b) promptly purchase (for cash at face value) from the other Lenders  participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans made by  the other Lenders or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders in such amounts, and make such other  adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Lenders shall share the benefit  of such payment (net of any reasonable expenses which may actually be incurred by such Lender in  obtaining or preserving such benefit) in accordance with the requirements of Section 3.2. or Section 11.5.,  as applicable.  To such end, all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the  





 






  - 58 -  79398846.4  resale of participations sold or otherwise) to the extent of the applicable recovery, without interest, if such  payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored; provided that the provisions of this Section shall not  be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the  express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a  Defaulting Lender), (y) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 3.9.(e) or (z) 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 Swingline Loans or Letters of Credit to any assignee or participant, other  than to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (as to which the provisions of this Section  shall apply).  The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees that any Lender so purchasing a  participation (or direct interest) in the Loans or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders may  exercise all rights of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such  participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans in the amount of such participation.   Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of  any Lender to exercise and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other  indebtedness or obligation of the Borrower.  Section 3.4.  Several Obligations.  No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan or to perform  any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender hereunder, and the failure of any  Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by it hereunder shall  not relieve the obligation of any other Lender to make any Loan or to perform any other obligation to be  made or performed by such other Lender.  Section 3.5.  Fees.  (a) Closing Fee.  On the Effective Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative  Agent and each Lender all fees then due and payable as have been agreed to in writing by the Borrower,  the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent in the Fee Letters or otherwise.  (b) Unused Fees. During the period from the Effective Date to but excluding the Revolving  Termination Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the  Revolving Lenders an unused facility fee equal to the sum of the daily amount (the “Unused Amount”)  by which the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments exceeds the aggregate outstanding  principal balance of Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities set forth in the table below  multiplied by the corresponding per annum rate.  Such fee shall be computed on a daily basis and payable  quarterly in arrears on the first day of each January, April, July and October during the term of this  Agreement and on the Revolving Termination Date or any earlier date of termination of the Revolving  Commitments or reduction of the Revolving Commitments to zero.  For the avoidance of doubt, for  purposes of calculating an unused facility fee, the outstanding principal balance of Swingline Loans shall  not be factored into the computation.  Unused Amount Unused Fee  (percent per annum)  Greater than or equal to 50% of the aggregate amount of  Revolving Commitments  0.25%  Less than 50% of the aggregate amount of Revolving  Commitments  0.15%    (c) Letter of Credit Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the  account of each Revolving Lender a letter of credit fee at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin

In  addition to such fees, the Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Bank solely for its own account, an issuance  or fronting fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank in an amount to be agreed  between the Borrower and such Issuing Bank, which fee may be payable either as a percentage of the face  amount of each Letter of Credit payable to such Issuing Bank at the time of issuance of such Letter of  Credit or as a per annum rate on the daily average Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit from the date of  issuance through and including the expiration or cancellation of such Letter of Credit.  The fees provided  for in this subsection shall be nonrefundable and payable, in the case of the fee provided for in the first  sentence, in arrears (i) quarterly on the first day of January, April, July and October, (ii) on the Revolving  Termination Date, (iii) on the date the Revolving Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero and  (iv) thereafter from time to time on demand of the Administrative Agent and in the case of the fee  provided for in the second sentence, at the time of issuance of such Letter of Credit.  The Borrower shall  pay directly to the applicable Issuing Bank from time to time on demand all commissions, charges, costs  and expenses in the amounts customarily charged or incurred by such Issuing Bank from time to time in  like circumstances with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit  or any other transaction relating thereto.  (d) Revolving Credit Extension Fee.  If the Borrower exercises its right to extend the  Revolving Termination Date in accordance with Section 2.13., the Borrower agrees to pay to the  Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a fee equal to three-twentieths of one  percent (0.15%) of the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment (whether or not  utilized).  Such fee shall be due and payable in full on the date the Administrative Agent receives the  Extension Request pursuant to such Section.  (e) Administrative and Other Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay the administrative and other  fees of the Administrative Agent as provided in the applicable Fee Letter and as may be otherwise agreed  to in writing from time to time by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.  Section 3.6.  Computations.  Unless otherwise expressly set forth herein, any accrued interest on any Loan, any Fees or any  other Obligations due hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual  number of days elapsed.  Section 3.7.  Usury.  In no event shall the amount of interest due or payable on the Loans or other Obligations exceed  the maximum rate of interest allowed by Applicable Law and, if any such payment is paid by the  Borrower or any other Loan Party or received by any Lender, then such excess sum shall be credited as a  payment of principal, unless the Borrower shall notify the respective Lender in writing that the Borrower  elects to have such excess sum returned to it forthwith.  It is the express intent of the parties hereto that  the Borrower not pay and the Lenders not receive, directly or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever,  interest in excess of that which may be lawfully paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law.  The parties  hereto hereby agree and stipulate that the only charge imposed upon the Borrower for the use of money in  connection with this Agreement is and shall be the interest specifically described in Section 2.5.(a)(i)  through (iv) and, with respect to Swingline Loans, in Section 2.4.(c).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the  parties hereto further agree and stipulate that all agency fees, syndication fees, facility fees, closing fees,  





 






  - 60 -  79398846.4  letter of credit fees, underwriting fees, default charges, late charges, funding or “breakage” charges,  increased cost charges, attorneys’ fees and reimbursement for costs and expenses paid by the  Administrative Agent or any Lender to third parties or for damages incurred by the Administrative Agent  or any Lender, in each case, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the  other Loan Documents, are charges made to compensate the Administrative Agent or any such Lender for  underwriting or administrative services and costs or losses performed or incurred, and to be performed or  incurred, by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with this Agreement and shall under  no circumstances be deemed to be charges for the use of money.  All charges other than charges for the  use of money shall be fully earned and nonrefundable when due.  Section 3.8.  Statements of Account.  The Administrative Agent will account to the Borrower monthly with a statement of Loans,  accrued interest and Fees, charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan  Documents, and such account rendered by the Administrative Agent shall be deemed conclusive upon the  Borrower absent manifest error.  The failure of the Administrative Agent to deliver such a statement of  accounts shall not relieve or discharge the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder.  Section 3.9.  Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Revolving Lender  becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Revolving Lender is no longer a Defaulting  Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:  (a) Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any  amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the  definition of Requisite Lenders.  The rights and remedies of the Borrower against a Defaulting Lender  under this Section are in addition to any other rights and remedies Borrower may have against such  Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, any of the Loan Documents, Applicable Law or otherwise.  (b) Defaulting Lender Waterfall.  Any payment of principal, interest, Fees or other amounts  received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or  mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article XI. or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent  from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.3. shall be applied at such time or times as may be  determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such  Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of  any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender hereunder;  third, to Cash Collateralize each Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting  Lender in accordance with subsection (e) below; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no  Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting  Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the  Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in  a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future  funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize each Issuing  Bank’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of  Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with subsection (e) below; sixth, to the payment of any  amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a  court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender against  such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this  Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts  owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the  





 






  - 61 -  79398846.4  Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations  under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of  competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any  Loans or amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender under Section 2.3.(j) in respect of Letters of Credit  (such amounts “L/C Disbursements”), in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded  its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time  when the conditions set forth in Article VI. were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely  to pay the Loans of, and L/C Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior  to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender  until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Liabilities and  Swingline Loans are held by the Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective  Revolving Commitment Percentages (determined without giving effect to the immediately following  subsection (d)) and all Term Loans are held by the Term Loan Lenders pro rata as if there had been no  Term Loan Lenders that are Defaulting Lenders.  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or  payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or  to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this subsection shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such  Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents thereto.  (c) Certain Fees.  (i) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Fee payable under  Section 3.5.(b) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the  Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to  have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).  (ii) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive letter of credit fees payable  under Section 3.5.(c) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the  extent allocable to its Revolving Commitment Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of  Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to the immediately following  subsection (e).  (iii) With respect to any Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender  pursuant to the immediately preceding clauses (i) or (ii), the Borrower shall (x) pay to each  Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such Fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting  Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Liabilities or  Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to the  immediately following subsection (d), (y) pay to each Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender, as  applicable, the amount of any such Fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the  extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s or Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such  Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such Fee.  (d) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  All or any part of such  Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated  among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment  Percentages (determined without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment) but only to  the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Article VI. are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and,  unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower  shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and  (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting  Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment.  Subject to Section 13.19., no  reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a  





 






  - 62 -  79398846.4  Defaulting Lender arising from that Revolving Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any  claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure  following such reallocation.  (e) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Loans.  (i) If the reallocation described in the immediately preceding subsection (d) above  cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or  remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount  equal to the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize each  Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in this  subsection.  (ii) At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one (1) Business  Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank  (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize such Issuing  Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving  effect to the immediately preceding subsection (d) and any Cash Collateral provided by such  Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the aggregate Fronting Exposure of such Issuing  Bank with respect to Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at such time.  Such cash  collateralization may be provided by a borrowing of Revolving Loans if the conditions  precedent thereto are met.  (iii) The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such  Defaulting Lender, hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of all Issuing  Banks, and agree to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as  security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of  Credit Liabilities, to be applied pursuant to the immediately following clause (iv).  If at any  time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim  of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks as herein provided, or  that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the aggregate Fronting Exposure of the  Issuing Banks with respect to Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at such time, the  Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the  Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such  deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).  (iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash  Collateral provided under this Section in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the  satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of  Credit Liabilities (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any  interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any  other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.  (v) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any  Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral  pursuant to this subsection following (x) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure  (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Revolving Lender),  or (y) the determination by the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank that there exists  excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to the immediately preceding subsection (b), the  Person providing Cash Collateral and the Issuing Banks may (but shall not be obligated to)  agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other  





 






  - 63 -  79398846.4  obligations; and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by  the Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall, solely to the extent otherwise applicable, remain  subject to any security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.  (f) Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline  Lender and the Issuing Banks agree in writing that a Revolving Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender,  the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in  such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect  to any Cash Collateral), that Revolving Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion  of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may  determine to be necessary to cause, as applicable, (i) the Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded  participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Revolving Lenders in  accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages (determined without giving effect  to the immediately preceding subsection (d)) and (ii) the Term Loans to be held by the Term Loan  Lenders pro rata as if there had been no Term Loan Lenders that were Defaulting Lenders, whereupon  such Revolving Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made  retroactively with respect to Fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that  Revolving Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that, subject to Section 13.19., except  to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting  Lender to Revolving Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder  arising from that Revolving Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.  (g) New Swingline Loans/Letters of Credit.  So long as any Revolving Lender is a  Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is  satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan and (ii) no  Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied  that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.  (h) Purchase of Defaulting Lender’s Commitment/Loans. During any period that a Lender is  a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower may, by the Borrower giving written notice thereof to the  Administrative Agent, such Defaulting Lender and the other Lenders, demand that such Defaulting  Lender assign its Commitment and Loans to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the  provisions of Section 13.6.(b). No party hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to initiate any such  replacement or to assist in finding an Eligible Assignee. In addition, any Lender who is not a Defaulting  Lender may, but shall not be obligated, in its sole discretion, to acquire the face amount of all or a portion  of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and Loans via an assignment subject to and in accordance with  the provisions of Section 13.6.(b). In connection with any such assignment, such Defaulting Lender shall  promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to effect such assignment, including an appropriate  Assignment and Assumption and, notwithstanding Section 13.6.(b), shall pay to the Administrative Agent  an assignment fee in the amount of $7,500. The exercise by the Borrower of its rights under this Section  shall be at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense and at no cost or expense to the Administrative Agent or  any of the Lenders.     Section 3.10.  Taxes.  (a) Issuing Banks. For purposes of this Section, the term “Lender” includes the Issuing  Banks and the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA.  (b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the  Borrower or any other Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or  withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined  





 






  - 64 -  79398846.4  in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of  any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be  entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld  to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an  Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower or other applicable Loan Party shall be increased  as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and  withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives  an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.  (c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall  timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of  the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.  (d) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall jointly  and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any  Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts  payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from  a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,  whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant  Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the  Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its  own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  (e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the  Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to  such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower or another Loan Party has not already indemnified  the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower  and the other Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with  the provisions of Section 13.6. relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded  Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in  connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect  thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant  Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any  Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby  authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such  Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from  any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this subsection.  The  provisions of this subsection shall continue to inure to the benefit of an Administrative Agent following  its resignation as Administrative Agent.   (f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the  Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, the Borrower or  such other Loan Party 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.  (g) Status of Lenders.  (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax  with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the  Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the  





 






  - 65 -  79398846.4  Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably  requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made  without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably  requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation  prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative  Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such  Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and  submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in the immediately  following clauses (ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable  judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material  unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of  such Lender.    (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is  a U.S. Person:    (A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the  Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender  under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the  Borrower or the Administrative Agent), an electronic copy (or an original if requested by  the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-9 (or any  successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup  withholding tax;    (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so,  deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall  be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender  becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the  reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the  following is applicable:    (I) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an  income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to  payments of interest under any Loan Document, an electronic copy (or an  original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of an  executed IRS Form W-8BEN, or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an  exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the  “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable  payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as  applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal  withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of  such tax treaty;    (II) an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or  the Administrative Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-8ECI;    (III) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the  exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue  Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-1 to the effect that  such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A)  





 






  - 66 -  79398846.4  of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within  the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a  “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal  Revenue Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) an electronic  copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of  IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or    (IV) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, an  electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative  Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI,  IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance  Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-2 or Exhibit L-3, IRS Form W- 9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable;  provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or  indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest  exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate  substantially in the form of Exhibit L-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect  partner;    (C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so,  deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall  be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender  becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the  reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), an electronic copy (or  an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of any other form  prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in  U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary  documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit the Borrower or the  Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and    (D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be  subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail  to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those  contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable),  such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or  times prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by  the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable  Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code)  and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the  Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative  Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender  has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount  to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D),  “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this  Agreement.    Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or  inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and  the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.    





 






  - 67 -  79398846.4  (h) Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in  good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this  Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the  indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made  under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses  (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the  relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request  of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this  subsection (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority)  in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the indemnified party be  required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection the payment of which  would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party  would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been  deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with  respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This subsection shall not be construed to require any  indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it  deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.  (i) Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section shall survive the resignation or  replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender,  the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under  any Loan Document.    ARTICLE IV.  [RESERVED].    ARTICLE V.  YIELD PROTECTION, ETC.  Section 5.1.  Additional Costs; Capital Adequacy.  (a) Capital Adequacy.  If any Lender determines that any Regulatory Change affecting such  Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital  or liquidity ratios or requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such  Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this  Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit  or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s  holding company could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into consideration such  Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy),  then from time to time, within thirty (30) days after written demand by such Lender or such Participant,  the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender  or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.  (b) Additional Costs.  In addition to, and not in limitation of the immediately preceding  subsection (a), the Borrower shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent on its own account or for the  account of a Lender from time to time such amounts as the Administrative Agent or such Lender may  determine to be necessary to compensate the Administrative Agent or such Lender for any costs incurred  by the Administrative Agent or such Lender that it determines are attributable to its making of or  maintaining, continuing or converting any Loans or its obligation to make, maintain, continue or convert  any Loans hereunder, any reduction in any amount receivable by the Administrative Agent or such  





 






  - 68 -  79398846.4  Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such Loans or such  obligation or the maintenance by the Administrative Agent or such Lender of capital or liquidity in  respect of its Loans or its Commitments (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable  being herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any Regulatory Change that:    (i) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent  or such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of  such Loans or its Commitments (other than Excluded Taxes and Connection Income Taxes);  (ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance  charge or similar requirements (other than Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the  Federal Reserve System or other similar reserve requirement applicable to any other category  of liabilities or category of extensions of credit or other assets by reference to which the interest  rate on LIBOR Loans is determined to the extent utilized when determining LIBOR for such  Loans) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other  liabilities of, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by such Lender (or  its parent corporation), or any commitment of such Lender (including, without limitation, the  Commitments of such Lender hereunder); or   (iii) imposes on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost  or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender.  (c) Lender’s Suspension of LIBOR Loans.  Without limiting the effect of the provisions of  the immediately preceding subsections (a) and (b), if by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Lender  either (i) incurs Additional Costs based on or measured by the excess above a specified level of the  amount of a category of deposits or other liabilities of such Lender that includes deposits by reference to  which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans is determined as provided in this Agreement or a category of  extensions of credit or other assets of such Lender that includes LIBOR Loans or (ii) becomes subject to  restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets that it may hold, then, if such Lender  so elects by notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the obligation of such  Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until  such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 5.5. shall apply).  (d) Additional Costs in Respect of Letters of Credit.  Without limiting the obligations of the  Borrower under the preceding subsections of this Section (but without duplication), if as a result of any  Regulatory Change or any risk-based capital guideline or other requirement heretofore or hereafter issued  by any Governmental Authority there shall be imposed, modified or deemed applicable any Tax (other  than Excluded Taxes and Connection Income Taxes), reserve, special deposit, capital adequacy, liquidity  or similar requirement against or with respect to or measured by reference to Letters of Credit and the  result shall be to increase the cost to the applicable Issuing Bank of issuing (or any Lender of purchasing  participations in) or maintaining its obligation hereunder to issue (or purchase participations in) any Letter  of Credit or reduce any amount receivable by any Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder in respect of any  Letter of Credit, then, upon demand by such Issuing Bank or such Lender, the Borrower shall pay  promptly to such Issuing Bank or, in the case of such Lender, to the Administrative Agent for the account  of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Issuing Bank or such Lender, such additional  amounts as shall be sufficient to compensate such Issuing Bank or such Lender for such increased costs or  reductions in amount.  (e) Notification and Determination of Additional Costs.  Each of the Administrative Agent,  each Issuing Bank and each Lender, as the case may be, agrees to notify the Borrower (and in the case of  an Issuing Bank and or a Lender, to notify the Administrative Agent) of any event occurring after the  





 






  - 69 -  79398846.4  Agreement Date entitling the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender to compensation  under any of the preceding subsections of this Section as promptly as practicable; provided, however, that  the failure of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to give such notice shall not  release the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder.  The Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank  and each Lender, as the case may be, agrees to furnish to the Borrower (and in the case of an Issuing  Bank or a Lender to the Administrative Agent as well) a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of  each request for compensation under this Section.  Determinations by the Administrative Agent, an  Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, of the effect of any Regulatory Change shall be  conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary  contained in the preceding subsections of this Section 5.1., the Borrower shall not be required to  compensate any Lender, any Participant or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any such  increased costs incurred or reductions suffered by such Lender, Participant or Issuing Bank more than one  hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender, Participant or Issuing Bank, as the case may  be, notifies the Borrower of the Regulatory Change giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and  of such Lender’s, Participant’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that if  the Regulatory Change giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the one  hundred eighty (180) day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive  effect thereof).  Section 5.2.  Changed Circumstances.  (a) Circumstances Affecting LIBOR Availability. Subject to clause (c) below, in connection  with any request for a LIBOR Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof or otherwise, if for any  reason (i) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding  absent manifest error) that Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank  eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan, (ii) the Administrative  Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that  reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period with  respect to a proposed LIBOR Loan or (iii) the Requisite Lenders shall determine (which determination  shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the LIBOR Rate does not adequately and fairly  reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans during such Interest Period, then the  Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower.  Thereafter, until the  Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist, the obligation of the  Lenders to make LIBOR Loans and the right of the Borrower to convert any Loan to or continue any  Loan as a LIBOR Loan shall be suspended, and the Borrower shall either (A) repay in full (or cause to be  repaid in full) the then outstanding principal amount of each such LIBOR Loan together with accrued  interest thereon (subject to Section 3.7), on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to  such LIBOR Loan; or (B) convert the then outstanding principal amount of each such LIBOR Loan to a  Base Rate Loan as of the last day of such Interest Period.  (b) Laws Affecting LIBOR Availability.  If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or any  change in, any Applicable Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any  Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or  administration thereof, or compliance by any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices)  with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental  Authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any of the  Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make or  maintain any LIBOR Loan, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent  and the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice to the Borrower and the other Lenders.   Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist,  (i) the obligations of the Lenders to make LIBOR Loans, and the right of the Borrower to convert any  





 






  - 70 -  79398846.4  Loan to a LIBOR Loan or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Loan shall be suspended and thereafter the  Borrower may select only Base Rate Loans and (ii) if any of the Lenders may not lawfully continue to  maintain a LIBOR Loan to the end of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto, the applicable  Loan shall immediately be converted to a Base Rate Loan for the remainder of such Interest Period.  (c) Benchmark Replacement Setting.  (i) (A) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein  or in any other Loan Document (and any Hedge Agreement shall be deemed not to be a  “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 5.2(c)) if a Benchmark Transition Event,  or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date  have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current  Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with  clause (a)(1) or (a)(2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark  Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all  purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting  and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or  consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a  Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a)(3) of the definition  of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark  Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any  Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York  City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark  Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or  consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the  Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such  Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Requisite Lenders.  If an  Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be  payable on a monthly basis.  (B) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan  Document, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement  Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then- current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then- current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of  such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to,  or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan  Document; provided that this clause (B) shall not be effective unless the Administrative  Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice.  For the  avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term  SOFR Notice after a Term SOFR Transition Event and may elect or not elect to do so in  its sole discretion.  (ii) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the  implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to  make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding  anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing  such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further  action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  





 






  - 71 -  79398846.4  (iii) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent  will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (A) any occurrence of a Benchmark  Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and  its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (B) the implementation of any Benchmark  Replacement, (C) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (D)  the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 5.2(c)(iv) below  and (E) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period.  Any  determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if  applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 5.2(c), including any  determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence  of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any  selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their  sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan  Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 5(c).  (iv) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary  herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the  implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (A) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate  (including Term SOFR or USD LIBOR) and either (1) any tenor for such Benchmark is not  displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as  selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (2) the regulatory supervisor  for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of  information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative,  then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark  settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (B) if a  tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (1) is subsequently displayed on a  screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (2) is  not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a  Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify  the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such  previously removed tenor.  (v) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the  commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for  a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Loans to be made, converted or  continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be  deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to  Base Rate Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the  then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon  the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in  any determination of the Base Rate.   (vi) London Interbank Offered Rate Benchmark Transition Event.  On March 5,  2021, the IBA, the administrator of the London interbank offered rate, and the FCA, the  regulatory supervisor of the IBA, made the Announcements that the final publication or  representativeness date for Dollars for (I) 1-week and 2-month London interbank offered rate  tenor settings will be December 31, 2021 and (II) overnight, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12- month London interbank offered rate tenor settings will be June 30, 2023.  No successor  administrator for the IBA was identified in such Announcements.  The parties hereto agree and  acknowledge that the Announcements resulted in the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition  Event with respect to the London interbank offered rate pursuant to the terms of this Agreement  





 






  - 72 -  79398846.4  and that any obligation of the Administrative Agent to notify any parties of such Benchmark  Transition Event pursuant to clause (iii) of this Section 5.2(c) shall be deemed satisfied.  Section 5.3.  [Reserved].  Section 5.4.  Compensation.  The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, upon the  request of the Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts as the Administrative Agent shall  determine in its sole discretion shall be sufficient to compensate such Lender for any loss, cost or expense  attributable to:   (a) any payment or prepayment (whether mandatory or optional) of a LIBOR Loan,  or Conversion of a LIBOR Loan, made by such Lender for any reason (including, without  limitation, acceleration or the exercise by the Borrower of its rights under Section 5.6.) on a date  other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or   (b) any failure by the Borrower for any reason (including, without limitation, the  failure of any of the applicable conditions precedent specified in Section 6.2. to be satisfied) to  borrow a LIBOR Loan from such Lender on the date for such borrowing, or to Convert a Base  Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan or Continue a LIBOR Loan on the requested date of such  Conversion or Continuation.  Upon the Borrower’s request, the Administrative Agent shall provide the Borrower with a statement  setting forth the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount  thereof.  Any such statement shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Section 5.5.  Treatment of Affected Loans.  Subject to Section 5.2(c)., if the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to Continue,  or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 5.1.(c) or  Section 5.2., then such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans on  the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for LIBOR Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion  required by Section 5.1.(c) or Section 5.2., on such earlier date as such Lender or the Administrative  Agent, as applicable, may specify to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent, as  applicable)) and, unless and until such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, gives notice as  provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 5.1. or Section 5.2. that gave rise to such  Conversion no longer exist:   (a) to the extent that such Lender’s LIBOR Loans have been so Converted, all  payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s LIBOR  Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and   (b) all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as LIBOR  Loans shall be made or Continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such  Lender that would otherwise be Converted into LIBOR Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.  If such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to  the Administrative Agent, as applicable) that the circumstances specified in Section 5.1.(c) or Section 5.2.  that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender’s LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section no longer exist  (which such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, agrees to do promptly upon such  





 






  - 73 -  79398846.4  circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, then  such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next  succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after  giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding LIBOR Loans and by such Lender are held  pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective  Commitments.  Section 5.6.  Affected Lenders.  If (a) a Lender requests compensation pursuant to Section 3.10. or Section 5.1., and the Requisite  Lenders are not also doing the same, or (b) the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to  Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to  Section 5.1.(b) or Section 5.2.(b) but the obligation of the Requisite Lenders shall not have been  suspended under such Sections, or (c) a Lender does not vote in favor of any amendment, modification or  waiver to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, which, pursuant to Section 13.7., requires the vote  of such Lender, and the Requisite Lenders shall have voted in favor of such amendment, modification or  waiver, then, so long as there does not then exist any Default or Event of Default, the Borrower may  demand that such Lender (the “Affected Lender”), and upon such demand the Affected Lender shall  promptly, assign its Commitment to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions  of Section 13.6.(b) for a purchase price equal to (x) the aggregate principal balance of all Loans then  owing to the Affected Lender, plus (y) the aggregate amount of payments previously made by the  Affected Lender under Section 2.3.(j) that have not been repaid, plus (z) any accrued but unpaid interest  thereon and accrued but unpaid fees owing to the Affected Lender, or any other amount as may be  mutually agreed upon by such Affected Lender and Eligible Assignee.  Each of the Administrative Agent  and the Affected Lender shall reasonably cooperate in effectuating the replacement of such Affected  Lender under this Section, but at no time shall the Administrative Agent, such Affected Lender nor any  other Lender nor any Titled Agent be obligated in any way whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or  to assist in finding an Eligible Assignee.  The exercise by the Borrower of its rights under this Section  shall be at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense and at no cost or expense to the Administrative Agent,  the Affected Lender or any of the other Lenders.  The terms of this Section shall not in any way limit the  Borrower’s obligation to pay to any Affected Lender compensation owing to such Affected Lender  pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 3.10., 5.1. or 5.4.) with  respect to any period up to the date of replacement.  Section 5.7.  Change of Lending Office.  Each Lender agrees that it will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal  and regulatory restrictions) to designate an alternate Lending Office with respect to any of its Loans  affected by the matters or circumstances described in Sections 3.10., 5.1. or 5.2.(b) to reduce the liability  of the Borrower or avoid the results provided thereunder, so long as such designation is not  disadvantageous to such Lender as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, except that such  Lender shall have no obligation to designate a Lending Office located in the United States of America.  Section 5.8.  Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Loans.

Section 11.2.  Remedies Upon Event of Default.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default the following provisions shall apply:  (a) Acceleration; Termination of Facilities.  (i) Automatic.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in  Sections 11.1.(e) or 11.1.(f), (1)(A) the principal of, and all accrued interest on, the Loans and  the Notes at the time outstanding, (B) an amount equal to the Stated Amount of all Letters of  Credit outstanding as of the date of the occurrence of such Event of Default for deposit into the  Letter of Credit Collateral Account and (C) all of the other Obligations, including, but not  limited to, the other amounts owed to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under this  Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents shall become immediately and  automatically due and payable without presentment, demand, protest, or other notice of any  kind, all of which are expressly waived by the Parent and the Borrower, each on behalf of itself  and the other Loan Parties, and (2) the Commitments and the Swingline Commitment and the  obligation of the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, shall all immediately and  automatically terminate.  (ii) Optional.  If any other Event of Default shall exist, the Administrative Agent  may, and at the direction of the Requisite Lenders shall:  (1) declare (A) the principal of, and  accrued interest on, the Loans and the Notes at the time outstanding, (B) an amount equal to the  Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the date of the occurrence of such  Event of Default for deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and (C) all of the other  Obligations, including, but not limited to, the other amounts owed to the Lenders and the  Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents to  be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable  without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are expressly  waived by the Parent and the Borrower, each on behalf of itself and the other Loan Parties, and  (2) terminate the Commitments and the Swingline Commitment and the obligation of the  Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit hereunder.  (b) Loan Documents.  The Requisite Lenders may direct the Administrative Agent to, and  the Administrative Agent if so directed shall, exercise any and all of its rights under any and all of the  other Loan Documents.  





 






  - 102 -  79398846.4  (c) Applicable Law.  The Requisite Lenders may direct the Administrative Agent to, and the  Administrative Agent if so directed shall, exercise all other rights and remedies it may have under any  Applicable Law.  (d) Remedies in Respect of Specified Derivatives Contracts.  Notwithstanding any other  provision of this Agreement or other Loan Document, each Specified Derivatives Provider shall have the  right, with prompt notice to the Administrative Agent, but without the approval or consent of or other  action by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, and without limitation of other remedies available to  such Specified Derivatives Provider under contract or Applicable Law, to undertake any of the following:   (a) to declare an event of default, termination event or other similar event under any Specified Derivatives  Contract and to create an “Early Termination Date” (as defined therein) in respect thereof, (b) to  determine net termination amounts in respect of any and all Specified Derivatives Contracts in accordance  with the terms thereof, and to set off amounts among such contracts, (c) to set off or proceed against  deposit account balances, securities account balances and other property and amounts held by such  Specified Derivatives Provider pursuant to any Derivatives Support Document, including any “Posted  Collateral” (as defined in any credit support annex included in any such Derivatives Support Document to  which such Specified Derivatives Provider may be a party), and (d) to prosecute any legal action against  the Borrower, any Loan Party or other Subsidiary to enforce or collect net amounts owing to such  Specified Derivatives Provider pursuant to any Specified Derivatives Contract.  For the avoidance of  doubt, none of the events or remedies described above shall by itself constitute a Default or Event of  Default hereunder.  Section 11.3.  Remedies Upon Default.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 11.1.(f), the Commitments, the  Swingline Commitment and the obligation of the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit shall  immediately and automatically terminate.    Section 11.4.  Marshaling; Payments Set Aside.  No Lender Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Loan Party or  any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations.  To the extent that  any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to a Lender Party, or a Lender Party enforces its security  interest or exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement  or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set  aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state  or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such recovery, the Guaranteed  Obligations, or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor,  shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such  enforcement or setoff had not occurred.  Section 11.5.  Allocation of Proceeds.  If an Event of Default exists, all payments received by the Administrative Agent under any of the  Loan Documents, in respect of any principal of or interest on the Obligations or any other amounts  payable by the Borrower hereunder or thereunder, shall be applied in the following order and priority:  (a) amounts due to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders in  respect of expenses due under Section 13.2. until paid in full, and then Fees;  (b) payments of interest on Swingline Loans;  





 






  - 103 -  79398846.4  (c) payments of interest on all other Loans and Reimbursement Obligations to be  applied for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks;  (d) payments of principal of Swingline Loans;  (e) payments of principal of all other Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and other  Letter of Credit Liabilities and payment obligations then owing under Specified Derivatives  Contracts, to be applied for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Specified  Derivatives Providers, in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (e) payable  to them; provided, however, to the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to  this subsection are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of an outstanding Letter of  Credit, such amounts shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for deposit into the Letter of  Credit Collateral Account;  (f) amounts due to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to  Sections 12.6. and 13.10.;   (g) payments of all other Obligations and other amounts due under any of the Loan  Documents, if any, to be applied for the ratable benefit of the Lenders; and  (h) any amount remaining after application as provided above, shall be paid to the  Borrower or whomever else may be legally entitled thereto.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Obligations arising under Specified Derivatives Contracts shall be  excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice  thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the  applicable Specified Derivatives Provider.  Each Specified Derivatives Provider not a party to this  Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be  deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the  terms of Article XII. for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.  Section 11.6.  Letter of Credit Collateral Account.  (a) As collateral security for the prompt payment in full when due of all Letter of Credit  Liabilities and the other Obligations, the Borrower hereby pledges and grants to the Administrative  Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders as provided  herein, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in and to the Letter of Credit Collateral  Account and the balances from time to time in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account (including the  investments and reinvestments therein provided for below).  The balances from time to time in the Letter  of Credit Collateral Account shall not constitute payment of any Letter of Credit Liabilities until applied  by the applicable Issuing Bank as provided herein.  Anything in this Agreement to the contrary  notwithstanding, funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall be subject to withdrawal only  as provided in this Section.  (b) Amounts on deposit in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall be invested and  reinvested by the Administrative Agent in such Cash Equivalents as the Administrative Agent shall  determine in its sole discretion.  All such investments and reinvestments shall be held in the name of and  be under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the  Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders; provided, that all earnings on such investments  will be credited to and retained in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account.  The Administrative Agent  shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in the Letter of Credit  





 






  - 104 -  79398846.4  Collateral Account and shall be deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded treatment  substantially equivalent to that which the Administrative Agent accords other funds deposited with the  Administrative Agent, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility  for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any funds held in the  Letter of Credit Collateral Account.  (c) If a drawing pursuant to any Letter of Credit occurs on or prior to the expiration date of  such Letter of Credit, the Borrower and the Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent to use the monies  deposited in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for the  payment made by such Issuing Bank to the beneficiary with respect to such drawing or the payee with  respect to such presentment.  (d) If an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent may (and, if instructed by the  Requisite Lenders shall, in its further discretion), at any time and from time to time elect to liquidate any  such investments and reinvestments and apply the proceeds thereof to the Obligations in accordance with  Section 11.5.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to liquidate  and release any such amounts if such liquidation or release would result in the amount available in the  Letter of Credit Collateral Account to be less than the Stated Amount of all Extended Letters of Credit  that remain outstanding.  (e) So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, and to the extent amounts on deposit in  or credited to the Letter of Credit Collateral Account exceed the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit  Liabilities then due and owing, the Administrative Agent shall, from time to time, at the written request of  the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower within ten (10) Business Days after the Administrative Agent’s  receipt of such request from the Borrower, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or  representation whatsoever, such amount of the credit balances in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account  as exceeds the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities at such time.  Upon the expiration,  termination or cancellation of an Extended Letter of Credit for which the Revolving Lenders reimbursed  (or funded participations in) a drawing deemed to have occurred under the fourth sentence of  Section 2.4.(b) for deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account but in respect of which the  Revolving Lenders have not otherwise received payment for the amount so reimbursed or funded, the  Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Revolving Lenders the amount so reimbursed or funded  for such Extended Letter of Credit that remains in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, pro rata in  accordance with the respective unpaid reimbursements or funded participations of the Revolving Lenders  in respect of such Extended Letter of Credit, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or  representation whatsoever.  When all of the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and no  Letters of Credit remain outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, against  receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, the balances remaining in the  Letter of Credit Collateral Account.  (f) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent from time to time such fees as the  Administrative Agent normally charges for similar services in connection with the Administrative  Agent’s administration of the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and investments and reinvestments of  funds therein.  Section 11.7.  Rescission of Acceleration by Requisite Lenders.  If at any time after acceleration of the maturity of the Loans and the other Obligations, the  Borrower shall pay all arrears of interest and all payments on account of principal of the Obligations  which shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on principal and, to the extent  permitted by Applicable Law, on overdue interest, at the rates specified in this Agreement) and all Events  





 






  - 105 -  79398846.4  of Default and Defaults (other than nonpayment of principal of and accrued interest on the Obligations  due and payable solely by virtue of acceleration) shall become remedied or waived to the satisfaction of  the Requisite Lenders, then by written notice to the Borrower, the Requisite Lenders may elect, in the sole  discretion of such Requisite Lenders, to rescind and annul the acceleration and its consequences.  The  provisions of the preceding sentence are intended merely to bind all of the Lenders to a decision which  may be made at the election of the Requisite Lenders, and are not intended to benefit the Borrower and do  not give the Borrower the right to require the Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder,  even if the conditions set forth herein are satisfied.  Section 11.8.  Rights Cumulative.  (a) Generally.  The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the  Lenders and the Specified Derivatives Providers under this Agreement, each of the other Loan  Documents and Specified Derivatives Contracts shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or  remedies which any of them may otherwise have under Applicable Law.  In exercising their respective  rights and remedies the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders and the Specified  Derivatives Providers may be selective and no failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any of the  Issuing Banks, any of the Lenders or any of the Specified Derivatives Providers in exercising any right  shall operate as a waiver of it, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude its  other or further exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.  (b) Enforcement by Administrative Agent.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary  contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder  and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively  in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and  maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Article XI. for the benefit of all  the Lenders and the Issuing Banks; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) the Administrative  Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its  capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) the Issuing Banks  or the Swingline Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to their benefit (solely in their  capacity as an Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be) hereunder or under the other Loan  Documents, (iii) any Specified Derivatives Provider from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to  its benefit under any Specified Derivatives Contract, (iv) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in  accordance with Section 13.3. (subject to the terms of Section 3.3.), or (v) any Lender from filing proofs  of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative  to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no  Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (x) the  Requisite Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to  Article XI. and (y) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (ii), (iv) and (v) of the preceding proviso  and subject to Section 3.3., any Lender may, with the consent of the Requisite Lenders, enforce any rights  and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Requisite Lenders.  ARTICLE XII.  THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT  Section 12.1.  Appointment and Authorization.  Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such  action as contractual representative on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers under this  Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by  the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Not in  limitation of the foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to enter into the  





 






  - 106 -  79398846.4  Loan Documents for the benefit of the Lenders.  Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set  forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this  Agreement or the Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Requisite Lenders of the powers set forth  herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized  and binding upon all of the Lenders.  Nothing herein shall be construed to deem the Administrative Agent  a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender or to impose on the Administrative Agent duties or obligations other  than those expressly provided for herein.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the  terms “Agent”, “Administrative Agent”, “agent” and similar terms in the Loan Documents with reference  to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express)  obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law.  Instead, use of such terms is merely a  matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between  independent contracting parties.  The Administrative Agent shall deliver or otherwise make available to  each Lender, promptly upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent, copies of each of the financial  statements, certificates, notices and other documents delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to  Article IX. that the Borrower is not otherwise required to deliver directly to the Lenders.  The  Administrative Agent will furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender, a copy (or, where  appropriate, an original) of any document, instrument, agreement, certificate or notice furnished to the  Administrative Agent by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate of the Borrower,  pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document not already delivered or otherwise made  available to such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any such other Loan Document.  As  to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation,  enforcement or collection of any of the Obligations), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to  exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall  be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or  all of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other provision of this Agreement), and such  instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of any of the Obligations; provided,  however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall  not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which  is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Applicable Law.  Not in limitation of the  foregoing, the Administrative Agent may exercise any right or remedy it or the Lenders may have under  any Loan Document upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default unless the Requisite Lenders  have directed the Administrative Agent otherwise.  Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have  any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent  acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance  with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders, or where applicable, all the Lenders.  Section 12.2.  Administrative Agent as Lender.  The Lender acting as Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers as a Lender or  a Specified Derivatives Provider, as the case may be, under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or  any Specified Derivatives Contract, as the case may be, as any other Lender or Specified Derivatives  Provider and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term  “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include the Lender acting as  Administrative Agent in each case in its individual capacity.  Such Lender and its Affiliates may each  accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee  under indentures of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the  Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any  duty to account therefor to the Issuing Banks, the other Lenders or any Specified Derivatives Providers.   Further, the Administrative Agent and any Affiliate may accept fees and other consideration from the  Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement or any Specified Derivatives Contract, or  otherwise without having to account for the same to the Issuing Banks, the other Lenders or any Specified  





 






  - 107 -  79398846.4  Derivatives Providers.  The Issuing Banks and the Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities,  the Lender acting as Administrative Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the  Borrower, other Loan Parties, other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates (including information that may be  subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that the Administrative  Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.  Section 12.3.  Approvals of Lenders.  All communications from the Administrative Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender’s  determination, consent or approval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender,  (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval  or consent is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or  issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved and (c) shall include,  if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written  materials provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be  resolved.  Unless a Lender shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent that it specifically objects  to the requested determination, consent or approval within 10 Business Days (or such lesser or greater  period as may be specifically required under the express terms of the Loan Documents) of receipt of such  communication, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved such requested  determination, consent or approval.  Section 12.4.  Notice of Events of Default.  The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a  Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the  Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Event of  Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”.  If any Lender (excluding the Lender which is  also serving as the Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, it shall  promptly send to the Administrative Agent such a “notice of default”.  Further, if the Administrative  Agent receives such a “notice of default”, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to  the Lenders.  Section 12.5.  Administrative Agent’s Reliance.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, neither  the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by  it under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except for its or their own  gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein or therein  as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment.  Without limiting  the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (including its  own counsel or counsel for the Borrower or any other Loan Party), independent public accountants and  other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith  by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.  Neither the Administrative  Agent nor any of its Related Parties: (a) makes any warranty or representation to any Lender, any Issuing  Bank or any other Person, or shall be responsible to any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Person for  any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made by the Borrower, any other Loan Party  or any other Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) shall have  any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or  conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent  under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of the Borrower or other Persons, or to inspect  the property, books or records of the Borrower or any other Person; (c) shall be responsible to any Lender  





 






  - 108 -  79398846.4  or any Issuing Bank for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or  value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any other instrument or document furnished  pursuant thereto or any collateral covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any Lien in favor of the  Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lender Parties in any such collateral; (d) shall have any liability in  respect of any recitals, statements, certifications, representations or warranties contained in any of the  Loan Documents or any other document, instrument, agreement, certificate or statement delivered in  connection therewith; and (e) shall incur any liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other  Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may  be by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the  proper party or parties.  The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under the Loan  Documents by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the  negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence  or willful misconduct in the selection of such agent or attorney-in-fact as determined by a court of  competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment.  Section 12.6.  Indemnification of Administrative Agent.  Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the  Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) pro rata in accordance with such  Lender’s respective Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,  penalties, actions, judgments, suits and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of any kind or nature  whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative  Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent but not as a Lender) in any way relating to or arising out of  the Loan Documents, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by  the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, “Indemnifiable Amounts”);  provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable Amounts to the  extent resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by  a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment; provided, further, that no action  taken in accordance with the directions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders, if expressly  required hereunder) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of  this Section.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the  Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation  of the Borrower to do so) promptly upon demand for its Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the  applicable reimbursement is sought) of any out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and  expenses of the counsel to the Administrative Agent) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection  with the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement (whether through  negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or  responsibilities of the parties under, the Loan Documents, any suit or action brought by the  Administrative Agent to enforce the terms of the Loan Documents and/or collect any Obligations, any  “lender liability” suit or claim brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, and any  claim or suit brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders arising under any  Environmental Laws.  Such out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by the  Lenders on the request of the Administrative Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that the  Administrative Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by the  Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is actually and finally  determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Administrative Agent is not so entitled to  indemnification.  The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other  Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.  If the Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative  Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any Lender to the Administrative Agent in  respect of such Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall share such  reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment.  





 






  - 109 -  79398846.4  Section 12.7.  Lender Credit Decision, Etc.  Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither the  Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties has made any representations or warranties to such  Issuing Bank or such Lender and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any  review of the affairs of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate, shall be  deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Issuing  Bank or any Lender.  Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks acknowledges that it has made its own  credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated  hereby, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel  to the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective Related Parties, and based on the financial  statements of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, and  inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of the Borrower, the  other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents, the legal  opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents  and information as it has deemed appropriate.  Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks also  acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other  Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Related Parties, and based on  such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make  its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents.  The Administrative Agent  shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower or any  other Loan Party of the Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for therein or to  inspect the properties or books of, or make any other investigation of, the Borrower, any other Loan Party  or any other Subsidiary.  Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly  required to be furnished to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks by the Administrative Agent under this  Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or  responsibility to provide any Lender or any Issuing Bank with any credit or other information concerning  the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, any  other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of the Administrative  Agent or any of its Related Parties.  Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks acknowledges that the  Administrative Agent’s legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement  is only acting as counsel to the Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to any Lender or any  Issuing Bank.  Section 12.8.  Successor Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan  Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower.  Upon any such resignation,  the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment  shall, provided no Default or Event of Default exists, be subject to the Borrower’s approval, which  approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that the Borrower shall, in all events, be  deemed to have approved each Lender and any of its Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent).  If  no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately  preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the current  Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the current Administrative Agent may, on  behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a  Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be an Eligible Assignee (but in no  event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a  Defaulting Lender); provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders  that no Lender has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective  in accordance with such notice and (1) the Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and  





 






  - 110 -  79398846.4  obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and  determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made to  each Lender and each Issuing Bank directly, until such time as a successor Administrative Agent has been  appointed as provided for above in this Section; provided, further that such Lenders and such Issuing  Banks so acting directly shall be and be deemed to be protected by all indemnities and other provisions  herein for the benefit and protection of the Administrative Agent as if each such Lender or Issuing Bank  were itself the Administrative Agent.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent  hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon  succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the current  Administrative Agent, and the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and  obligations under the Loan Documents.  Any resignation by an Administrative Agent shall also constitute  the resignation as an Issuing Bank and as the Swingline Lender by the Lender then acting as  Administrative Agent (the “Resigning Lender”).  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as  Administrative Agent hereunder (i) the Resigning Lender shall be discharged from all duties and  obligations of an Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents  and (ii) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for all Letters of Credit  issued by the Resigning Lender as Issuing Bank outstanding at the time of such succession (which letters  of credit issued in substitutions shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder) or make other  arrangements satisfactory to the Resigning Lender to effectively assume the obligations of the Resigning  Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit.  After any Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as  Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XII. shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any  actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.   Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may assign its rights  and duties under the Loan Documents to any of its Affiliates by giving the Borrower and each Lender  prior written notice.  Section 12.9.  Titled Agents.  Each of the Arrangers, the Bookrunner, the Syndication Agent and the Documentation Agents  (each a “Titled Agent”) in each such respective capacity, assumes no responsibility or obligation  hereunder, including, without limitation, for servicing, enforcement or collection of any of the Loans, nor  any duties as an agent hereunder for the Lenders.  The titles given to the Titled Agents are solely  honorific and imply no fiduciary responsibility on the part of the Titled Agents to the Administrative  Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank, the Borrower or any other Loan Party and the use of such titles  does not impose on the Titled Agents any duties or obligations greater than those of any other Lender or  entitle the Titled Agents to any rights other than those to which any other Lender is entitled.  Section 12.10.  Specified Derivatives Contracts.  No Specified Derivatives Provider that obtains the benefits of Section 11.5. by virtue of the  provisions hereof or of any Loan Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to,  direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of any  Loan Document other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly  provided in the Loan Documents.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article to the contrary, the  Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory  arrangements have been made with respect to, Specified Derivatives Contracts unless the Administrative  Agent has received written notice of such Specified Derivatives Contracts, together with such supporting  documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Specified Derivatives  Provider.

Section 12.13.  Erroneous Payments.  (a) Each Lender, each Issuing Lender and any other party hereto hereby severally agrees that  if (i) the Administrative Agent notifies (which such notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error) such  Lender or Issuing Lender (or the Lender Affiliate of a Secured Party) or any other Person that has  received funds from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates, either for its own account or on  behalf of a Lender or Issuing Lender (each such recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative  Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Payment Recipient were  erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient  (whether or not known to such Payment Recipient) or (ii) any Payment Recipient receives any payment  from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a  different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the  Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, as  applicable, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment  sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or  repayment, as applicable, or (z) that such Payment Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted or  received in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) then, in each case, an error in payment shall be  presumed to have been made (any such amounts specified in clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 12.13(a),  whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or  otherwise; individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”), then, in each case, such Payment  Recipient is deemed to have knowledge of such error at the time of its receipt of such Erroneous Payment;  provided that nothing in this Section shall require the Administrative Agent to provide any of the notices  specified in clauses (i) or (ii) above. Each Payment Recipient agrees that it shall not assert any right or  claim to any Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off  or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the  return of any Erroneous Payments, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on  “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(c) In the case of either clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above, such Erroneous Payment shall at all  times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient  and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and upon demand from the Administrative  Agent such Payment Recipient shall (or, shall cause any Person who received any portion of an Erroneous  Payment on its behalf to), promptly, but in all events no later than two Business Days thereafter, return to  the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which  such a demand was made in Same Day Funds and in the currency so received, together with interest  thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof)  was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at  the Federal Funds Rate.  (d) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the  Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance  





 






  - 113 -  79398846.4  with immediately preceding clause (c), from any Lender that is a Payment Recipient or an Affiliate of a  Payment Recipient (such unrecovered amount as to such Lender, an “Erroneous Payment Return  Deficiency”), then at the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and upon the Administrative Agent’s  written notice to such Lender (i) such Lender shall be deemed to have made a cashless assignment of the  full face amount of the portion of its Loans (but not its Commitments) of the relevant Class with respect  to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) to the  Administrative Agent or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s applicable  lending affiliate in an amount that is equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser  amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments)  of the Erroneous Payment  Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) plus any  accrued and unpaid interest on such assigned amount, without further consent or approval of any party  hereto and without any payment by the Administrative Agent or its applicable lending affiliate as the  assignee of such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment.  Without limitation of its rights hereunder,  the Administrative Agent may cancel any Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment at any time by  written notice to the applicable assigning Lender and upon such revocation all of the Loans assigned  pursuant to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment shall be reassigned to such Lender without  any requirement for payment or other consideration.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (1)  any assignment contemplated in this clause (d) shall be made without any requirement for any payment or  other consideration paid by the applicable assignee or received by the assignor, (2) the provisions of this  clause (d) shall govern in the event of any conflict with the terms and conditions of Section 13.6 and (3)  the Administrative Agent may reflect such assignments in the Register without further consent or action  by any other Person.  (e) Each party hereto hereby agrees that (x) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion  thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or  portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent (1) shall be subrogated to all the rights of such  Payment Recipient with respect to such amount and (2) is authorized to set off, net and apply any and all  amounts at any time owing to such Payment Recipient under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable  or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Payment Recipient from any source, against any  amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 12.13 or under the indemnification provisions  of this Agreement, (y) the receipt of an Erroneous Payment by a Payment Recipient shall not for the  purpose of this Agreement be treated as a payment, prepayment, repayment, discharge or other  satisfaction of any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the  extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that  is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or any other Loan Party  for the purpose of making for a payment on the Obligations and (z) to the extent that an Erroneous  Payment was in any way or at any time credited as payment or satisfaction of any of the Obligations, the  Obligations or any part thereof that were so credited, and all rights of the Payment Recipient, as the case  may be, shall be reinstated and continue in full force and effect as if such payment or satisfaction had  never been received.  (f) Each party’s obligations under this Section 12.13 shall survive the resignation or  replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of right or obligations by, or the replacement of,  a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all  Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.  Nothing in this Section 12.13 will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder  arising from any Payment Recipient’s receipt of an Erroneous Payment.    ARTICLE XIII.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of an  assigning Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment and the Loans at the time owing  to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved  Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and  (B) in any case not described in the immediately preceding subsection (A),  the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitment (which for this purpose includes  Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Revolving Commitment is not then in  effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to  each such assignment, and the principal outstanding balance of the Term Loan subject to  such assignment (in each case, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption  with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade  Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be  less than $15,000,000 in the case of any assignment of a Revolving Commitment and  $1,000,000 in the case of any assignment in respect of a Term Loan, unless each of the  Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall exist, the  Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or  delayed); provided, however, that if, after giving effect to such assignment, the amount of  the Commitment held by such assigning Lender or the outstanding principal balance of  the Loans of such assigning Lender, as applicable, would be less than $10,000,000 in the  case of a Revolving Commitment or Revolving Loans or $1,000,000 in the case of a  Term Loan, then such assigning Lender shall assign the entire amount of its Commitment  and the Loans at the time owing to it.  (ii) Proportionate Amounts.  Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment  of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement  with respect to the Loan or the Revolving Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii)  shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among  separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis.  (iii) Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any assignment except to  the extent required by clause (i)(B) of this subsection (b) and, in addition:  (A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably  withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) a Default or Event of Default shall exist  at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a  Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have  consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the  Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice, by  delivery of a paper copy, or by email, thereof;   (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be  unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of (x) a  Revolving Commitment or any unfunded Term Loan Commitments if such assignment is  





 






  - 120 -  79398846.4  to a Person that is not already a Lender with a Commitment under the applicable Facility,  an Affiliate of such a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such a Lender or (y) a  Term Loan to a Person who is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved  Fund; and  (C) the consent of the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Banks (such consent  not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in  respect of a Revolving Commitment.  (iv) Assignment and Assumption; Notes.  The parties to each assignment shall  execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with  a processing and recordation fee (which, other than in connection with an assignment pursuant  to Section 5.6., shall not be borne by the Borrower) of $4,500 for each assignment (or $7,500 if  the assignor is a Defaulting Lender), which fee the Administrative Agent may, in its sole  discretion, elect to waive, and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the  Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.  If requested by the transferor Lender  or the assignee, upon the consummation of any assignment, the transferor Lender, the  Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes  are issued to the assignee and such transferor Lender, as appropriate.  (v) No Assignment to Certain Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to (A) the  Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or  any of its Subsidiaries, or to any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would  constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).  (vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to a  natural Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for  the primary benefit of, a natural Person).  (vii) Certain Additional Payments.  In connection with any assignment of rights and  obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless  and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the  assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate  amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment,  purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions,  including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the  applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting  Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to  (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the  Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lender and each other Lender  hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro  rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans in  accordance with its Revolving Commitment Percentage.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the  event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall  become effective under Applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this  paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all  purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.  (viii) Assignments by Specified Derivatives Provider.  If the assigning Lender (or its  Affiliate) is a Specified Derivatives Provider and if after giving effect to such assignment such  Lender will hold no further Loans or Revolving Commitments under this Agreement, such  





 






  - 121 -  79398846.4  Lender shall undertake such assignment only contemporaneously with an assignment by such  Lender (or its Affiliate, as the case may be) of all of its Specified Derivatives Contracts to the  Assignee or another Lender (or Affiliate thereof).  Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the immediately  following subsection (c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption,  the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by  such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of 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 5.4.,  13.2. and 13.10. and the other provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as provided in  Section 13.11. with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such  assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no  assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder  arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of  rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph 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 the immediately following subsection (d).  (c) Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary  agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Principal Office 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  Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant  to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive  absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall 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.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any  Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  Each Lender that sells  a participation as described in Section 13.6.(d) shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary  agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and  the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant's interest in the 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, or its other  obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that  such Commitment, Loan, or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the  Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error,  and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner  of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For  the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no  responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.  (d) Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the  Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, or a  holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a  natural Person, or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a  “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement  (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that  (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain  





 






  - 122 -  79398846.4  solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the  Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and  directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.   Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such  Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification  or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide  that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (w) increase such Lender’s  Commitment, (x) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal on the Loans or portions thereof  owing to such Lender, (y) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon (other than a waiver of  default interest and changes in calculation of the ratio of Total Indebtedness to Total Asset Value that  may indirectly affect pricing) or (z) release any Guarantor from its Obligations under the Guaranty except  as contemplated by Section 8.12.(b), in each case, as applicable to that portion of such Lender’s rights  and/or obligations that are subject to the participation.  The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be  entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.10., 5.1., 5.4. (subject to the requirements and limitations therein,  including the requirements under Section 3.10.(g) (it being understood that the documentation required  under Section 3.10.(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a  Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section; provided  that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 5.6. as if it were an assignee  under subsection (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under  Sections 3.10. or 5.1., with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been  entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a  Regulatory Change that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.  Each Lender  that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to  cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 5.6. with respect to any Participant.   To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 13.4. as  though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 3.3. as though it  were a Lender.  (e) Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or  any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge  or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or  assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee  or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto or entitled to the rights of an assignee hereunder.  (f) No Registration.  Each Lender agrees that, without the prior written consent of the  Borrower and the Administrative Agent, it will not make any assignment hereunder in any manner or  under any circumstances that would require registration or qualification of, or filings in respect of, any  Loan or Note under the Securities Act or any other securities laws of the United States of America or of  any other jurisdiction.  (g) USA Patriot Act Notice; Compliance.  In order for the Administrative Agent to comply  with “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including, without  limitation, the Patriot Act, prior to any Lender that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of  the United States of America becoming a party hereto, the Administrative Agent may request, and such  Lender shall provide to the Administrative Agent, its name, address, tax identification number and/or  such other identification information as shall be necessary for the Administrative Agent to comply with  federal law.

Subject to the  immediately following subsection (b), any term of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document  relating to the rights or obligations of the Revolving Lenders, and not any other Lenders, may be  amended, and the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any Subsidiary  of any such terms may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or  prospectively) with, and only with, the written consent of the Requisite Revolving Lenders (and, in the  case of an amendment to any Loan Document, the written consent of each Loan Party a party thereto).   Subject to the immediately following subsection (b), any term of this Agreement or of any other Loan  Document relating to the rights or obligations of the Term Loan Lenders, and not any other Lenders, may  be amended, and the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any  Subsidiary of any such terms may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either  retroactively or prospectively) with, but only with, the written consent of the Requisite Term Loan  Lenders (and, in the case of an amendment to any Loan Document, the written consent of each Loan Party  a party thereto).  (b) Consent of Lenders Directly Affected.  In addition to the foregoing requirements, no  amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing, and signed by each of the Lenders directly and  adversely affected thereby (or the Administrative Agent at the written direction of such Lenders), do any  of the following:  (i) increase, extend or reinstate the Commitments of any Lender (excluding any  increase as a result of an assignment of Commitments permitted under Section 13.6. and any  Incremental Credit Facility effected pursuant to Section 2.17.) or subject any Lender to any  additional obligations to lend money or issue or participate in letters of credit without the  written consent of such Lender;  (ii) reduce the principal of, or interest that has accrued or the rates of interest (subject  to the last sentence of Section 13.7.(c)) that will be charged on the outstanding principal amount  of, any Loans or other Obligations (other than a waiver of default interest and changes in  calculation of the ratio of Total Indebtedness to Total Asset Value that may indirectly affect  pricing) without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided, however,  only the written consent of the Requisite Lenders shall be required (x) for the waiver of interest  payable at the Post-Default Rate, retraction of the imposition of interest at the Post-Default Rate  and amendment of the definition of “Post-Default Rate” and (y) to amend any financial covenant  hereunder (or any defined term used therein) even if the effect of such amendment would be to  reduce the rate of interest on any Loan or to reduce any fee payable hereunder;  (iii) reduce the amount of any Fees payable to any Lender hereunder without the  written consent of such Lender;

  - 125 -  79398846.4  (c) Amendment or Waiver by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may, subject  to the terms of subsection (b) above, (i) approve any amendment to this Agreement that is administrative  in nature or is otherwise determined by the Administrative Agent in good faith not to be material,  (ii) waive any obligation or waive or confirm as cured any default of any Loan Party hereunder or under  any of the Loan Documents, to the extent such waiver is determined by the Administrative Agent to be  administrative in nature or such obligation or default is not material and (iii) together with the Borrower,  approve any amendment to this Agreement (A) to provide for the making of any Incremental Credit  Facility as contemplated by Section 2.17. and to permit the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to  share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Loans and the  accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (B) to include appropriately the Lenders in respect of such  Incremental Credit Facilities in any determination of the Requisite Lenders.  Notwithstanding the  foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may, without the consent of any Lender, (x) enter  into amendments or modifications to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or (y) enter into  additional Loan Documents, in each case, as the Administrative Agent reasonably deems appropriate in  order to implement any Benchmark Replacement or otherwise effectuate the terms of Section 5.2.(ii) in  accordance with the terms of Section 5.2.(ii).  (d) Amendment of Administrative Agent’s Duties, Etc.  No amendment, waiver or consent  unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove  to take such action (but without duplication), shall affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent  under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.  Any amendment, waiver or consent relating  to Section 2.4. or the obligations of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan  Document shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action (but without  duplication), require the written consent of the Swingline Lender.  Any amendment, waiver or consent  relating to Section 2.3. or the obligations of the Issuing Banks under this Agreement or any other Loan  Document shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action (but without  duplication), require the written consent of the Issuing Banks.  Any amendment, waiver or consent with  respect to any Loan Document that (i) diminishes the rights of a Specified Derivatives Provider in a  manner or to an extent dissimilar to that affecting the Lenders or (ii) increases the liabilities or obligations  of a Specified Derivatives Provider shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such  action, require the consent of the Lender that is (or having an Affiliate that is) such Specified Derivatives  Provider.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to  approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or  consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected  with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the  Commitments of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased, reinstated or extended without the written  consent of such Defaulting Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent  of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than  other affected Lenders shall require the written consent of such Defaulting Lender.  No waiver shall  extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon and any  amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose  set forth therein.  No course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Administrative Agent or  any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto.   Any Event of Default occurring hereunder shall continue to exist until such time as such Event of Default  is waived in writing in accordance with the terms of this Section, notwithstanding any attempted cure or  other action by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person subsequent to the occurrence of  such Event of Default.  Within fifteen (15) Business Days following written request therefor from the  Borrower (together with such additional information as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall  reasonably request in respect thereof), the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall use commercially  reasonable efforts to respond to any request for a waiver, amendment or other modification of the Loan  Documentation in respect of any Default or Event of Default, provided that the failure of the  





 






  - 126 -  79398846.4  Administrative Agent or any Lender to so respond shall not constitute a waiver, amendment or other  modification, or release of any claim under any Loan Document, in respect of any such Default or Event  of Default.  Except as otherwise explicitly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, no notice  to or demand upon the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to other or further notice or demand in similar  or other circumstances.  Section 13.8.  Nonliability of Administrative Agent and Lenders.  The relationship between the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and  the Administrative Agent, on the other hand, shall be solely that of borrower and lender.  None of the  Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the  Borrower and no provision in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, and no course of  dealing between or among any of the parties hereto, shall be deemed to create any fiduciary duty owing  by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to any Lender, the Borrower, any  Subsidiary or any other Loan Party.  None of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender  undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower to review or inform the Borrower of any matter in  connection with any phase of the Borrower’s business or operations.  Section 13.9.  Confidentiality.  Except as otherwise provided by Applicable Law, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank  and each Lender shall maintain the confidentiality of all Information (as defined below) in accordance  with its customary procedure for handling confidential information of this nature and in accordance with  safe and sound banking practices but in any event may make disclosure: (a) to its Affiliates and to its and  its Affiliates’ other respective Related Parties that have a need to know in connection with the  transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (provided that the Persons to  whom such disclosure is made shall be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and  instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) subject to an agreement containing provisions  substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any actual or proposed assignee, Participant or other  transferee in connection with a potential transfer of any Commitment or participation therein as permitted  hereunder, or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative  transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations; (c) as required or requested by any Governmental  Authority or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process or in connection with any legal  proceedings, or as otherwise required by Applicable Law; (d) to the Administrative Agent’s, such Issuing  Bank’s or such Lender’s independent auditors and other professional advisors (provided they shall be  notified of the confidential nature of the information); (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies  under any Loan Document (or any Specified Derivatives Contract) or any action or proceeding relating to  any Loan Document (or any such Specified Derivatives Contract) or the enforcement of rights hereunder  or thereunder; (f) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a  breach of this Section by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender or (ii) becomes  available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Affiliate of the  Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other  than the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower which source is not actually known by the  Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, as applicable, to be subject to a confidentiality  obligation in respect thereof; (g) to the extent requested by, or required to be disclosed to, any nationally  recognized rating agency or regulatory or similar authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such  as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) having or purporting to have jurisdiction over  it; (h) of deal terms and other information customarily reported to Thomson Reuters, to bank trade  publications, other bank market data collectors and similar service providers to the lending industry and  service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration of  the Loan Documents; (i) to any other party hereto; (j) on a confidential basis to the CUSIP Service Bureau  





 






  - 127 -  79398846.4  or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to  the Loan Documents; and (k) with the consent of the Borrower.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the  Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender may disclose any such confidential  information to Governmental Authorities in connection with any regulatory examination of the  Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender or in accordance with the generally applicable  regulatory compliance policy of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender.  As used in  this Section, the term “Information” means all information received from the Borrower, any other Loan  Party, any other Subsidiary or Affiliate relating to any Loan Party or any of their respective businesses,  other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing  Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any other  Subsidiary or any Affiliate.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as  provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person  has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person  would accord to its own confidential information.  Section 13.10.  Indemnification.  (a) The Borrower shall and hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the  Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders, all of the Affiliates of each of the Administrative  Agent, any of the Issuing Banks or any of the Lenders, and their respective directors, officers,  shareholders, agents, employees and counsel (each referred to herein as an “Indemnified Party”) from  and against any and all of the following (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”):  losses, costs, claims,  penalties, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or reasonable expenses of every kind and nature  (including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, court costs and the fees and disbursements of  counsel incurred in connection with any litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding or any advice  rendered in connection therewith, but excluding Indemnified Costs indemnification in respect of which is  specifically covered by Section 3.10. or 5.1. or expressly excluded from the coverage of such Sections)  incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with, arising out of, or by reason of, any suit, cause of  action, claim, arbitration, investigation or settlement, consent decree or other proceeding (the foregoing  referred to herein as an “Indemnity Proceeding”) which is in any way related directly or indirectly to:  (i) this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) the making  of any Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder; (iii) any actual or proposed use by the Borrower  of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit; (iv) the Administrative Agent’s, any Issuing Bank’s or  any Lender’s entering into this Agreement; (v) the fact that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks  and the Lenders have established the credit facility evidenced hereby in favor of the Borrower pursuant to  the Loan Documents; (vi) the fact that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders are  creditors of the Borrower and have or are alleged to have information regarding the financial condition,  strategic plans or business operations of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries pursuant to the Loan  Documents; (vii) the fact that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders are material  creditors of the Borrower and are alleged to influence directly or indirectly the business decisions or  affairs of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries or their financial condition; (viii) the exercise of any right or  remedy the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders may have under this Agreement or  the other Loan Documents; (ix) any civil penalty or fine assessed by the OFAC against, and all costs and  expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with defense  thereof by, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender as a result of conduct of the  Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary that violates a sanction administered or enforced  by the OFAC; or (x) any violation or non-compliance by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any  Applicable Law (including any Environmental Law) including, but not limited to, any Indemnity  Proceeding commenced by (A) the Internal Revenue Service or state taxing authority or (B) any  Governmental Authority or other Person under any Environmental Law, including any Indemnity  Proceeding commenced by a Governmental Authority or other Person seeking remedial or other action to  





 






  - 128 -  79398846.4  cause the Borrower or its Subsidiaries (or its respective properties) (or the Administrative Agent and/or  the Lenders and/or the Issuing Banks as successors to the Borrower) to be in compliance with such  Environmental Laws; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify any  Indemnified Party for any acts or omissions of such Indemnified Party in connection with matters  described in this subsection to the extent arising from (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of  any Indemnified Party, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable  judgment or (y) any dispute solely among the Indemnified Parties (other than claims against an  Indemnified Party in its capacity as the Administrative Agent) and not arising out of any act or omission  of the Parent, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary of the Parent or any of their  respective Affiliates.  (b) The Borrower’s indemnification obligations under this Section shall apply to all  Indemnity Proceedings arising out of, or related to, the foregoing whether or not an Indemnified Party is a  named party in such Indemnity Proceeding.  In this connection, this indemnification shall cover all  Indemnified Costs of any Indemnified Party in connection with any deposition of any Indemnified Party  or compliance with any subpoena (including any subpoena requesting the production of documents).  This  indemnification shall, among other things, apply to any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by other  creditors of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, any shareholder of the Borrower or any Subsidiary (whether  such shareholder(s) are prosecuting such Indemnity Proceeding in their individual capacity or derivatively  on behalf of the Borrower), any account debtor of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or by any  Governmental Authority.  If indemnification is to be sought hereunder by an Indemnified Party, then such  Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Borrower of the commencement of any Indemnity  Proceeding; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Borrower shall not otherwise relieve the  Borrower from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 13.10.  (c) This indemnification shall apply to any Indemnity Proceeding arising during the  pendency of any bankruptcy proceeding filed by or against the Borrower and/or any Subsidiary.  (d) All out-of-pocket fees and expenses of, and all amounts paid to third persons by, an  Indemnified Party shall be advanced by the Borrower at the request of such Indemnified Party  notwithstanding any claim or assertion by the Borrower that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to  indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by such Indemnified Party that such  Indemnified Party will reimburse the Borrower if it is actually and finally determined by a court of  competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Party is not so entitled to indemnification hereunder.  (e) An Indemnified Party may conduct its own investigation and defense of, and may  formulate its own strategy with respect to, any Indemnity Proceeding covered by this Section and, as  provided above, all Indemnified Costs incurred by such Indemnified Party shall be reimbursed by the  Borrower.  No action taken by legal counsel chosen by an Indemnified Party in investigating or defending  against any such Indemnity Proceeding shall vitiate or in any way impair the obligations and duties of the  Borrower hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless each such Indemnified Party; provided, however,  that if (i) the Borrower is required to indemnify an Indemnified Party pursuant hereto and (ii) the  Borrower has provided evidence reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party that the Borrower has  the financial wherewithal to reimburse such Indemnified Party for any amount paid by such Indemnified  Party with respect to such Indemnity Proceeding, such Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise  any such Indemnity Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall  not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnified Party may  settle or compromise any such Indemnity Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Borrower  where (x) no monetary relief is sought against such Indemnified Party in such Indemnity Proceeding or  (y) there is an allegation of a violation of law by such Indemnified Party.  





 






  - 129 -  79398846.4  (f) If and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower under this Section are  unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the  payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under Applicable Law.  (g) The Borrower’s obligations under this Section shall survive any termination of this  Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment in full in cash of the Obligations, and are in  addition to, and not in substitution of, any of the other obligations set forth in this Agreement or any other  Loan Document to which it is a party.  References in this Section 13.10. to “Lender” or “Lenders” shall be deemed to include such Persons (and  their Affiliates) in their capacity as Specified Derivatives Providers.  Section 13.11.  Termination; Survival.  This Agreement shall terminate at such time as (a) all of the Commitments have been terminated,  (b) all Letters of Credit have terminated or expired or been canceled (other than Extended Letters of  Credit in respect of which the Borrower has satisfied the requirements to provide Cash Collateral as  required in Section 2.3.(b)), (c) none of the Lenders is obligated any longer under this Agreement to make  any Loans and none of the Issuing Banks is obligated any longer under this Agreement to issue Letters of  Credit and (d) all Obligations (other than obligations which survive as provided in the following sentence)  have been paid and satisfied in full. The indemnities to which the Administrative Agent, the Issuing  Banks and the Lenders are entitled under the provisions of Sections 3.10., 5.1., 5.4., 12.6., 13.2. and  13.10. and any other provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the provisions of  Section 13.5., shall continue in full force and effect and shall protect the Administrative Agent, the  Issuing Banks and the Lenders (i) notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, or of the other  Loan Documents, against events arising after such termination as well as before and (ii) at all times after  any such party ceases to be a party to this Agreement with respect to all matters and events existing on or  prior to the date such party ceased to be a party to this Agreement.  Section 13.12.  Severability of Provisions.  If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be determined by a court of  competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severed from the  Loan Documents, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall remain in  full force as though the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been part of the Loan  Documents.  Section 13.13.  GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE  WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED,  AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.  Section 13.14.  Counterparts.  To facilitate execution, this Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements  may be executed in any number of counterparts as may be convenient or required (which may be  effectively delivered in portable document format (“PDF”) or other similar electronic means).  It shall not  be necessary that the signature of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the signature of all persons required  to bind any party, appear on each counterpart.  All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single  document.  It shall not be necessary in making proof of this document to produce or account for more  





 






  - 130 -  79398846.4  than a single counterpart containing the respective signatures of, or on behalf of, each of the parties  hereto. The words “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery” and words of like import in  or related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document, amendment, approval, consent,  waiver, modification, information, notice, certificate, report, statement, disclosure, or authorization to be  signed or delivered in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions  contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures or execution in the form of an  Electronic Record, and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative  Agent, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal  effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based  recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any Applicable Law,  including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State  Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic  Transactions Act.  Each party hereto agrees that any Electronic Signature or execution in the form of an  Electronic Record shall be valid and binding on itself and each of the other parties hereto to the same  extent as a manual, original signature.  For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph  may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the parties of a manually signed paper which has  been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed paper  converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention.  Notwithstanding anything  contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent is under no obligation to accept an Electronic  Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant  to procedures approved by it; provided that  without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the  Administrative Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature from any party hereto, the  Administrative Agent and the other parties hereto shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic  Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the executing party without further verification and (ii)  upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly  followed by an original manually executed counterpart thereof.  Without limiting the generality of the  foregoing, each party hereto hereby (A) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in  connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or  litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and any of the Credit Parties, electronic images of  this Agreement or any other Loan Document (in each case, including with respect to any signature pages  thereto)  shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, and (B) waives  any argument, defense or right to contest the validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents based  solely on the lack of paper original copies of any Loan Documents, including with respect to any  signature pages thereto.  Section 13.15.  Obligations with Respect to Loan Parties.  The obligations of the Borrower to direct or prohibit the taking of certain actions by the other  Loan Parties as specified herein shall be absolute and not subject to any defense the Borrower may have  that the Borrower does not control such Loan Parties.  Section 13.16.  Independence of Covenants.  All covenants hereunder shall be given in any jurisdiction independent effect so that if a  particular action or condition is prohibited by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted  by an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the  occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists contrary to such  prohibition.  





 






  - 131 -  79398846.4  Section 13.17.  Limitation of Liability.  None of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, or any of their Related  Parties shall have any liability with respect to, and the Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not  to sue any of them upon, any claim for any special, indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages  suffered or incurred by the Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this  Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement  or any of the other Loan Documents.  The Borrower shall not have any liability with respect to any claim  for any special, indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages suffered or incurred by the  Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender or any of the Administrative Agent’s, any Issuing  Bank’s or any Lender’s Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents for punitive  damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this  Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement  or financed hereby (other than punitive damages of a third party awarded against any Indemnified Party  for which the Borrower may be responsible to the extent covered by Section 13.10.).  Section 13.18.  Entire Agreement.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents embody the final, entire agreement among the  parties hereto and supersede any and all prior commitments, agreements, representations, and  understandings, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and may not be  contradicted or varied by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements or  discussions of the parties hereto.  There are no oral agreements among the parties hereto.  Section 13.19.  Construction.  The Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, the Borrower and each Lender acknowledge that  each of them has had the benefit of legal counsel of its own choice and has been afforded an opportunity  to review this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with its legal counsel and that this Agreement  and the other Loan Documents shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the Administrative Agent, each  Issuing Bank, the Borrower and each Lender.  Section 13.20.  Headings.  The paragraph and section headings in this Agreement are provided for convenience of reference  only and shall not affect its construction or interpretation.  NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER  LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS SHALL LOOK SOLELY TO THE  BORROWER AND THE OTHER LOAN PARTIES FOR THE ENFORCEMENT OF ANY CLAIM  AGAINST THE BORROWER AND SUCH LOAN PARTY UNDER OR IN RESPECT OF ANY OF  THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ACCORDINGLY NEITHER THE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS,  EMPLOYEES, NOR SHAREHOLDERS OF THE BORROWER OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY  SHALL HAVE ANY PERSONAL LIABILITY FOR OBLIGATIONS ENTERED INTO BY OR ON  BEHALF OF THE BORROWER OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY.  Section 13.21.  Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement,  arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability  of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is  





 






  - 132 -  79398846.4  unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution  Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:  (g) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution  Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is  an Affected Financial Institution; and  (h) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:  (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;  (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments  of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution  that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of  ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this  Agreement or any other Loan Document; or  (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the  Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.  Section 13.22.  Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs.  To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedge  Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”  and, each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to  the resolution power of the FDIC under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank  Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder,  the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with  the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may  in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any  other state of the United States):  (a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”)  becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported  QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such  Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC  or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer  would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit  Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United  States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered  Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the  Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may  be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such  Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and  the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.  Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties  with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to  a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.    (b) As used in this Section 13.22, the following terms have the following meanings:  





 






  - 133 -  79398846.4  “BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and  interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.  “Covered Entity” means any of the following:  (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in  accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b);  (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance  with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or  (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance  with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).  “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in  accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.  “QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall  be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).

  B-3  subordination of the payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations to the payment of any other liability of  the Borrower or any other Loan Party;     (e) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution,  liquidation or other like proceeding relating to such Guarantor, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any  other Person, or any action taken with respect to this Guaranty by any trustee or receiver, or by any court,  in any such proceeding;     (f) any act or failure to act by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person which  may adversely affect such Guarantor’s subrogation rights, if any, against the Borrower, any other Loan  Party or any other Person to recover payments made under this Guaranty;     (g) any nonperfection or impairment of any security interest or other Lien on any collateral,  if any, securing in any way any of the Guarantied Obligations;     (h) any application of sums paid by the Borrower, any Loan Party or any other Person with  respect to the liabilities of any Loan Party to any of the Guarantied Parties, regardless of what liabilities  of the Borrower remain unpaid;     (i) any defect, limitation or insufficiency in the borrowing powers of the Borrower or in the  exercise thereof;     (j) any defense, set off, claim or counterclaim (other than indefeasible payment and  performance in full) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any Loan Party or any other  Person against any Guarantied Party;     (k) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Loan Party;     (l) any statement, representation or warranty made or deemed made by or on behalf of any  Loan Party under any Guarantied Document, or any amendment hereto or thereto, proves to have been  incorrect or misleading in any respect, or    (m) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a  discharge of, a Guarantor hereunder (other than indefeasible payment in full or release or termination of  the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder by the Guarantied Parties pursuant to the terms of the Credit  Agreement).       Section 4.  Action with Respect to Guarantied Obligations.  The Guarantied Parties may, at any  time and from time to time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Guarantor, and without discharging  any Guarantor from its obligations hereunder, take any and all actions described in Section 3. and may  otherwise: (a) amend, modify, alter or supplement the terms of any of the Guarantied Obligations,  including, but not limited to, extending or shortening the time of payment of any of the Guarantied  Obligations or changing the interest rate that may accrue on any of the Guarantied Obligations;  (b) amend, modify, alter or supplement any Guarantied Document; (c) sell, exchange, release or otherwise  deal with all, or any part, of any collateral securing any of the Guarantied Obligations; (d) release any  Loan Party or other Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of any of the Guarantied  Obligations; (e) exercise, or refrain from exercising, any rights against the Borrower, any other Loan  Party or any other Person; and (f) apply any sum, by whomsoever paid or however realized, to the  Guarantied Obligations in such order as the Guarantied Parties shall elect, in the case of each of the  foregoing clauses (a) through (e) above, pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan  Documents.  





 






  B-4     Section 5.  Representations and Warranties.  Each Guarantor hereby makes to the Administrative  Agent and the other Guarantied Parties all of the representations and warranties made by the Borrower  with respect to or in any way relating to such Guarantor in the Credit Agreement and the other Guarantied  Documents, as if the same were set forth herein in full mutatis mutandis.     Section 6.  Covenants.  Each Guarantor will comply with all covenants with which the Borrower  is to cause such Guarantor to comply under the terms of the Credit Agreement or any of the other  Guarantied Documents.     Section 7.  Waiver.  Each Guarantor, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, hereby  waives notice of acceptance hereof or any presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, other than  demand for payment hereunder, and any other act or thing, or omission or delay to do any other act or  thing, which in any manner or to any extent might vary the risk of such Guarantor or which otherwise  might operate to discharge such Guarantor from its obligations hereunder.     Section 8.  Inability to Accelerate.  If the Guarantied Parties or any of them are prevented under  Applicable Law or otherwise from demanding or accelerating payment of any of the Guarantied  Obligations by reason of any automatic stay or otherwise, the Administrative Agent and/or the other  Guarantied Parties shall be entitled to receive from each Guarantor, upon demand therefor, the sums  which otherwise would have been due had such demand or acceleration occurred.     Section 9.  Reinstatement of Guarantied Obligations.  If claim is ever made on the Administrative  Agent or any other Guarantied Party for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in  payment or on account of any of the Guarantied Obligations, and the Administrative Agent or such other  Guarantied Party repays all or part of said amount by reason of (a) any judgment, decree or order of any  court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction, or (b) any settlement or compromise of any such  claim effected by the Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied Party with any such claimant  (including the Borrower or a trustee in bankruptcy for the Borrower), then and in such event each  Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding on it,  notwithstanding any revocation hereof or the cancellation of any of the Guarantied Documents, and such  Guarantor shall be and remain liable to the Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied Party for the  amounts so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been paid to the  Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied Party, except to the extent such amount is determined, in a  final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction, to have been collected by the  Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied Party in violation of any Guarantied Document.     Section 10.  Subrogation.  Upon the making by any Guarantor of any payment hereunder for the  account of another Loan Party, such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the payee against such  Loan Party; provided, however, that such Guarantor shall not enforce any right or receive any payment by  way of subrogation or otherwise take any action in respect of any other claim or cause of action such  Guarantor may have against such Loan Party arising by reason of any payment or performance by such  Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty, unless and until all of the Guarantied Obligations have been  indefeasibly paid and performed in full.  If any amount shall be paid to such Guarantor on account of or in  respect of such subrogation rights or other claims or causes of action, such Guarantor shall hold such  amount in trust for the benefit of the Guarantied Parties and shall forthwith pay such amount to the  Administrative Agent to be credited and applied against the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or  unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or to be held by the Administrative  Agent as collateral security for any Guarantied Obligations existing.    





 






  B-5   Section 11. Payments Free and Clear.  All sums payable by each Guarantor hereunder, whether of  principal, interest, fees, expenses, premiums or otherwise, shall be paid in full, without set-off or  counterclaim or any deduction or withholding whatsoever (including any Taxes, subject to Section 3.10.  of the Credit Agreement), and if such Guarantor is required by Applicable Law or by any Governmental  Authority to make any such deduction or withholding such Guarantor shall pay to the Administrative  Agent and the Lenders such additional amount as will result in the receipt by the Administrative Agent  and the Lenders of the full amount payable hereunder had such deduction or withholding not occurred or  been required.    Section 12.  Set-off.  In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under any of the other  Guarantied Documents or Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, each  Guarantor hereby authorizes each Guarantied Party, each Affiliate of a Guarantied Party, and each  Participant, at any time while an Event of Default exists, without any prior notice to such Guarantor or to  any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, but in the case of a Guarantied Party  (other than the Administrative Agent), an Affiliate of a Guarantied Party (other than the Administrative  Agent), or a Participant, subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and  Requisite Lenders, exercised in their sole discretion, to set-off and to appropriate and to apply any and all  deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of  deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by a  Guarantied Party, an Affiliate of a Guarantied Party or such Participant to or for the credit or the account  of such Guarantor against and on account of any of the Guarantied Obligations, although such obligations  shall be contingent or unmatured.  Each Guarantor agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable  Law, that any Participant may exercise rights of setoff or counterclaim and other rights with respect to its  participation as fully as if such Participant were a direct creditor of such Guarantor in the amount of such  participation.     Section 13.  Subordination.  Each Guarantor hereby expressly covenants and agrees for the  benefit of the Guarantied Parties that all obligations and liabilities of any other Loan Party to such  Guarantor of whatever description, including without limitation, all intercompany receivables of such  Guarantor from any other Loan Party (collectively, the “Junior Claims”) shall be subordinate and junior in  right of payment to all Guarantied Obligations.  If an Event of Default shall exist, then no Guarantor shall  accept any direct or indirect payment (in cash, property or securities, by setoff or otherwise) from any  other Loan Party on account of or in any manner in respect of any Junior Claim until all of the Guarantied  Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full.     Section 14.  Avoidance Provisions.  It is the intent of each Guarantor, the Administrative Agent  and the other Guarantied Parties that in any Proceeding, such Guarantor’s maximum obligation hereunder  shall equal, but not exceed, the maximum amount which would not otherwise cause the obligations of  such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Guarantied Parties) to be  avoidable or unenforceable against such Guarantor in such Proceeding as a result of Applicable Law,  including without limitation, (a) Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code and (b) any state fraudulent transfer  or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in such Proceeding, whether by virtue of Section 544 of  the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.  The Applicable Laws under which the possible avoidance or  unenforceability of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such  Guarantor to the Guarantied Parties) shall be determined in any such Proceeding are referred to as the  “Avoidance Provisions”.  Accordingly, to the extent that the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder  would otherwise be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, the maximum Guarantied  Obligations for which such Guarantor shall be liable hereunder shall be reduced to that amount which, as  of the time any of the Guarantied Obligations are deemed to have been incurred under the Avoidance  Provisions, would not cause the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such  Guarantor to the Guarantied Parties), to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions.  This  





 






  B-6  Section is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied  Parties hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder  to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, and no Guarantor or any other Person shall  have any right or claim under this Section as against the Guarantied Parties that would not otherwise be  available to such Person under the Avoidance Provisions.     Section 15.  Information.  Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself  informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, and of all other  circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any of the Guarantied Obligations and the nature,  scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither of  the Administrative Agent nor any other Guarantied Party shall have any duty whatsoever to advise any  Guarantor of information regarding such circumstances or risks.     Section 16.  Governing Law.  THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND  CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW  YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH  STATE.     SECTION 17.  WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.      (a) EACH GUARANTOR, AND EACH OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE  OTHER GUARANTIED PARTIES BY ACCEPTING THE BENEFITS HEREOF, ACKNOWLEDGES  THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN OR AMONG SUCH GUARANTOR, THE  ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER GUARANTIED PARTIES WOULD BE  BASED ON DIFFICULT AND COMPLEX ISSUES OF LAW AND FACT AND WOULD RESULT IN  DELAY AND EXPENSE TO THE PARTIES.  ACCORDINGLY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY  APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE GUARANTORS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE  OTHER GUARANTIED PARTIES BY ACCEPTING THE BENEFITS HEREOF, HEREBY WAIVES  ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR  NATURE IN ANY COURT OR TRIBUNAL IN WHICH AN ACTION MAY BE COMMENCED BY  OR AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO ARISING OUT OF THIS GUARANTY.     (b) EACH GUARANTOR IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT  IT WILL NOT COMMENCE ANY ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR  DESCRIPTION, WHETHER IN LAW OR EQUITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT OR  OTHERWISE, AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY OTHER GUARANTIED PARTY,  OR ANY RELATED PARTY OF THE FOREGOING IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS  GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER GUARANTIED DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS  RELATING HERETO OR THERETO, IN ANY FORUM OTHER THAN THE COURTS 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, IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS TO THE  JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY  SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH  NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE  LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL  JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION 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 GUARANTY OR IN ANY  OTHER GUARANTIED DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE  ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OTHER GUARANTIED PARTY MAY OTHERWISE HAVE  





 






  B-7  TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER  GUARANTIED DOCUMENT AGAINST ANY GUARANTOR OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE  COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.  EACH PARTY FURTHER WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT  IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR  PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS  BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM AND EACH AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM  THE SAME.  THE CHOICE OF FORUM SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL NOT BE DEEMED  TO PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY  OTHER GUARANTIED PARTY OR THE ENFORCEMENT BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT  OR ANY OTHER GUARANTIED PARTY OF ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN SUCH FORUM IN  ANY OTHER APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION.     (c) THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED BY EACH  PARTY WITH THE ADVICE OF COUNSEL AND WITH A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE  LEGAL CONSEQUENCES THEREOF, AND SHALL SURVIVE THE PAYMENT OF THE LOANS  AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE OTHER GUARANTIED  DOCUMENTS, THE TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION OF ALL LETTERS OF CREDIT AND THE  TERMINATION OF THIS GUARANTY.     Section 18.  Loan Accounts.  The Administrative Agent and each other Guarantied Party may  maintain books and accounts setting forth the amounts of principal, interest and other sums paid and  payable with respect to the Guarantied Obligations arising under or in connection with the Loan  Documents, and in the case of any dispute relating to any of the outstanding amount, payment or receipt  of any of such Guarantied Obligations or otherwise, the entries in such books and accounts shall  constitute prima facie evidence of amounts and other matters set forth therein.  The failure of the  Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party to maintain such books and accounts shall not in any  way relieve or discharge any Guarantor of any of its obligations hereunder.     Section 19.  Waiver of Remedies.  No delay or failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or  any other Guarantied Party in the exercise of any right or remedy it may have against any Guarantor  hereunder or otherwise shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by the  Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party of any such right or remedy shall preclude any other  or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right or remedy.     Section 20.  Termination.  This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect with respect to each  Guarantor until indefeasible payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations and the termination or  cancellation of all Guarantied Documents in accordance with their respective terms.     Section 21.  Successors and Assigns.  Each reference herein to the Administrative Agent or any  other Guarantied Party shall be deemed to include such Person’s respective successors and assigns  (including, but not limited to, any holder of the Guarantied Obligations) in whose favor the provisions of  this Guaranty also shall inure, and each reference herein to each Guarantor shall be deemed to include  such Guarantor’s successors and assigns, upon whom this Guaranty also shall be binding.  The  Guarantied Parties may, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Guarantied Documents,  assign, transfer or sell any Guarantied Obligation, or grant or sell participations in any Guarantied  Obligations, to any Person without the consent of, or notice to, any Guarantor and without releasing,  discharging or modifying any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder.  Subject to Section 13.9. of the Credit  Agreement, each Guarantor hereby consents to the delivery by the Administrative Agent and any other  Guarantied Party to any Eligible Assignee or Participant (or any prospective Eligible Assignee or  Participant) of any financial or other information regarding the Borrower or any Guarantor.  No Guarantor  may assign or transfer its obligations hereunder to any Person without the prior written consent of all  





 






  B-8  Lenders and any such assignment or other transfer to which all of the Lenders have not so consented shall  be null and void.     Section 22.  JOINT AND SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS.  THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE  GUARANTORS HEREUNDER SHALL BE JOINT AND SEVERAL, AND ACCORDINGLY, EACH  GUARANTOR CONFIRMS THAT IT IS LIABLE FOR THE FULL AMOUNT OF THE  “GUARANTIED OBLIGATIONS” AND ALL OF THE OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITIES OF  EACH OF THE OTHER GUARANTORS HEREUNDER.     Section 23.  Amendments.  This Guaranty may not be amended except in writing signed by the  Administrative Agent and each Guarantor, subject to Section 13.7. of the Credit Agreement.     Section 24.  Payments.  All payments to be made by any Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty  shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at its Principal  Office, not later than 1:00 p.m. Central time, on the date one Business Day after demand therefor.     Section 25.  Notices.

Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective (i) if mailed, upon the first to  occur of receipt or the expiration of three (3) Business Days after the deposit in the United States Postal  Service certified mail, postage prepaid and addressed to the address of such party at the addresses  specified; (ii) if emailed, upon the next Business Day; provided that such notice is delivered by overnight  courier on the next Business Day following such emailed confirmation; (iii) if hand delivered or sent by  overnight courier, when delivered; or (iv) if delivered in accordance with Section 9.5. of the Credit  Agreement to the extent applicable; provided, however, that, in the case of the immediately preceding  clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), non-receipt of any communication as of the result of any change of address of  which the sending party was not notified or as the result of a refusal to accept delivery shall be deemed  receipt of such communication.     Section 26.  Severability.  In case any provision of this Guaranty shall be invalid, illegal or  unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions  shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.     Section 27.  Headings.  Section headings used in this Guaranty are for convenience only and shall  not affect the construction of this Guaranty.     Section 28.  Limitation of Liability. None of the Administrative Agent, any other Guarantied  Party or any of their respective Related Parties shall have any liability with respect to, and each Guarantor  hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue any of them upon, any claim for any special, indirect,  incidental, or consequential damages suffered or incurred by a Guarantor in connection with, arising out  of, or in any way related to, this Guaranty, any of the other Guarantied Documents, or any of the  transactions contemplated by this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement or any of the other Guarantied  Documents.  Each Guarantor hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue the Administrative Agent or  any other Guarantied Party or any of the Administrative Agent’s or any of their respective Related Parties  for punitive damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to,  this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement or any of the other Guarantied Documents, or any of the transactions  contemplated by thereby.    





 






  B-9   Section 29. Electronic Delivery of Certain Information.  Each Guarantor acknowledges and  agrees that information regarding the Guarantor may be delivered electronically pursuant to Section 9.5.  of the Credit Agreement.     Section 30.  Right of Contribution.  The Guarantors hereby agree as among themselves that, if  any Guarantor shall make an Excess Payment, such Guarantor shall have a right of contribution from each  other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s Contribution Share of such Excess  Payment.  The payment obligations of any Guarantor under this Section shall be subordinate and subject  in right of payment to the Guarantied Obligations until such time as the Guarantied Obligations have been  indefeasibly paid and performed in full and the Commitments have expired or terminated, and none of the  Guarantors shall exercise any right or remedy under this Section against any other Guarantor until such  Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full and the Commitments have expired or  terminated.  Subject to Section 10. of this Guaranty, this Section shall not be deemed to affect any right of  subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution that any Guarantor may have under Applicable  Law against any other Loan Party in respect of any payment of Guarantied Obligations.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing, all rights of contribution against any Guarantor shall terminate from and after such time, if  ever, that such Guarantor shall cease to be a Guarantor in accordance with the applicable provisions of the  Loan Documents.     Section 31.  Keepwell.  Each Qualified ECP Guarantor 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 Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in respect of  Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this  Section for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its  obligations under this Section, or otherwise under this Guaranty, voidable under applicable law relating to  fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount).  The obligations of each  Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until termination of this  Guaranty in accordance with Section 20. hereof.  Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section  constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for  the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity  Exchange Act.     Section 32.  Definitions. (a) For the purposes of this Guaranty:     “Contribution Share” means, for any Guarantor in respect of any Excess Payment made by any  other Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) as of the date of such Excess Payment of (i) the  amount by which the aggregate present fair salable value of all of its assets and properties exceeds the  amount of all debts and liabilities of such Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and  unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder) to (ii) the amount by  which the aggregate present fair salable value of all assets and other properties of the Loan Parties other  than the maker of such Excess Payment exceeds the amount of all of the debts and liabilities (including  contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of the  Loan Parties) of the Loan Parties other than the maker of such Excess Payment; provided, however, that,  for purposes of calculating the Contribution Shares of the Guarantors in respect of any Excess Payment,  any Guarantor that became a Guarantor subsequent to the date of any such Excess Payment shall be  deemed to have been a Guarantor on the date of such Excess Payment and the financial information for  such Guarantor as of the date such Guarantor became a Guarantor shall be utilized for such Guarantor in  connection with such Excess Payment.     “Excess Payment” means the amount paid by any Guarantor in excess of its Ratable Share of any  Guarantied Obligations.  





 






  B-10    “Proceeding” means any of the following: (x) any Guarantor shall:  (i) commence a voluntary  case under the Bankruptcy Code or other federal bankruptcy laws (as now or hereafter in effect); (ii) file a  petition seeking to take advantage of any other Applicable Laws, domestic or foreign, relating to  bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, winding-up, or composition or adjustment of debts; (iii) consent  to, or fail to contest in a timely and appropriate manner, any petition filed against it in an involuntary case  under such bankruptcy laws or other Applicable Laws or consent to any proceeding or action described in  the immediately following subsection (z); (iv) apply for or consent to, or fail to contest in a timely and  appropriate manner, the appointment of, or the taking of possession by, a receiver, custodian, trustee, or  liquidator of itself or of a substantial part of its property, domestic or foreign; (v) admit in writing its  inability to pay its debts as they become due; or (vi) make a general assignment for the benefit of  creditors; (y) the board of directors (or similar  governing body) of any Guarantor or any committee  thereof shall adopt any resolution or otherwise authorize any action to approve any of the actions referred  to in this definition of “Proceeding”; or (z) a case or other proceeding shall be commenced against any  Guarantor in any court of competent jurisdiction seeking:  (i) relief under the Bankruptcy Code or other  federal bankruptcy laws (as now or hereafter in effect) or under any other Applicable Laws, domestic or  foreign, relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, winding-up, or composition or adjustment of  debts; or (ii) the appointment of a trustee, receiver, custodian, liquidator or the like of such Person, or of  all or any substantial part of the assets, domestic or foreign, of such Person, and in the case of either  clause (i) or (ii) such case or proceeding shall continue undismissed or unstayed for a period of 60  consecutive days, or an order granting the remedy or other relief requested in such case or proceeding  (including, but not limited to, an order for relief under such Bankruptcy Code or such other federal  bankruptcy laws) shall be entered.     “Qualified ECP Guarantor” means, in respect of any Swap Obligation, each Loan Party  (including the Borrower) that has total assets exceeding $10,000,000 at the time the relevant Guarantee or  grant of the relevant security interest becomes effective with respect to such Swap Obligation or such  other person as constitutes an “eligible contract participant” under the Commodity Exchange Act or any  regulations promulgated thereunder and can cause another person to qualify as an “eligible contract  participant” at such time by entering into a keepwell under Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity  Exchange Act.     “Ratable Share” means, for any Guarantor in respect of any payment of Guarantied Obligations,  the ratio (expressed as a percentage) as of the date of such payment of Guarantied Obligations of (i) the  amount by which the aggregate present fair salable value of all of its assets and properties exceeds the  amount of all debts and liabilities of such Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and  unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder) to (ii) the amount by  which the aggregate present fair salable value of all assets and other properties of all of the Loan Parties  exceeds the amount of all of the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and  unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder) of the Loan Parties;  provided, however, that, for purposes of calculating the Ratable Shares of the Guarantors in respect of any  payment of Guarantied Obligations, any Guarantor that became a Guarantor subsequent to the date of any  such payment shall be deemed to have been a Guarantor on the date of such payment and the financial  information for such Guarantor as of the date such Guarantor became a Guarantor shall be utilized for  such Guarantor in connection with such payment.     (b) As used herein, “Guarantors” shall mean, as the context requires, collectively, (a) each  Loan Party identified as a “Guarantor” on the signature pages hereto, (b) each Person that joins this  Guaranty as a Guarantor pursuant to Section 8.12. of the Credit Agreement, (c) with respect to (i) any  Specified Derivatives Obligations between any Loan Party (other than the Borrower) and any Specified  Derivatives Provider, the Borrower and (ii) the payment and performance by each other Loan Party of its  





 






  B-11  obligations under the Guaranty with respect to all Swap Obligations, the Borrower, and (d) the successors  and permitted assigns of the foregoing.
