jurisdiction or any other applicable law (including the U.S. Bankruptcy Code) or principles of
equity); provided however that Agreed Security Principles shall not prohibit the grant of a
Lien or a provision of a guarantee at such time as the contractual prohibition shall no longer
be applicable and, to the extent severable, which Lien shall attach immediately to any portion
of such lease, license, contract or agreement not subject to the prohibitions specified above;
provided further that the Agreed Securities Principles shall not exclude any “proceeds” (as
defined in the UCC) of any such lease, license, contract or agreement;

that the Administrative Agent is charging to any corporate customer. Any change in the Alternate
Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted
Eurodollar Rate shall be effective from and including the date of such change in the Prime Rate,
the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, respectively.




          “Applicable Margin” shall mean for any day (a) for any Incremental Term Loan, the applicable

Leverage Ratio as of the last date of the most recent fiscal quarter of the Borrower and (c) for
Swingline Loans, prior to the Trigger Date, 1.75% per annum, and on or after the Trigger Date, the
applicable margin per annum set forth below under the caption “Swingline Loans ABR Loan Spread”:




	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	 	Revolving Facility Loans	 	 	 	 
	 	 	ABR Loan Spread /	 	 	 	 
	 	 	Swingline Loans ABR	 	 	Revolving Facility Loans	 
	Leverage Ratio:	 	Loan Spread	 	 	Eurodollar Loan Spread	 
	Category 1: Greater than 4.50 to 1.00
	 	 	2.50	%	 	 	3.50	%
	Category 2: Less than or equal to 4.50 to 1.00
but greater than 4.00 to 1.00
	 	 	2.25	%	 	 	3.25	%
	Category 3: Less than or equal to 4.00 to 1.00
but greater than 3.50 to 1.00
	 	 	2.00	%	 	 	3.00	%

	Category 5: Less than or equal to 3.00 to 1.00
	 	 	1.50	%	 	 	2.50	%






          For purposes of the foregoing, (1) the Leverage Ratio shall be determined as of the end of
each fiscal quarter of the Borrower’s fiscal year based upon the consolidated financial information
of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(a) or (b) and (2) each
change in the Applicable Margin resulting from a change in the Leverage Ratio shall be effective on
the first Business Day after the date of delivery to the Administrative Agent of such consolidated
financial information indicating such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the
effective date of the next such change; provided that the Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be in
Category 1 at the option of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, at any time during
which the Borrower fails to deliver the consolidated financial information when required to be
delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(a) or (b), during the period from the expiration of the time for
delivery thereof until such consolidated financial information is delivered.




          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this definition or elsewhere in
this Agreement, if it is subsequently determined that the computation of the Leverage Ratio set
forth in a certificate of the General Partner or a Financial Officer of the Borrower delivered to
the Administrative Agent is inaccurate for any reason and the result thereof is that the Lenders
received interest or fees for any period based on an Applicable Margin that is less than that which
would have been applicable had the Leverage Ratio been accurately determined, then, for all

THE CREDITS




          Section 2.01. Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each
Revolving Facility Lender agrees to make Revolving Facility Loans, in each case from time to time
during the Availability Period, comprised of Eurodollar Loans and ABR Loans to the Borrower in U.S.
Dollars in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (i) such Lender’s Revolving
Facility Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment and (ii) the
Revolving Facility Credit Exposure exceeding the total Revolving Facility Commitments;
provided, that, the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans borrowed on the
Closing Date, together with the aggregate face amount of any Revolving Letters of Credit issued on

the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving
Facility Loans. The Revolving Facility shall be available as ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans.




          Section 2.02. Loans and Borrowings. (a) Each Loan to the Borrower shall be made as part of a
Borrowing consisting of Loans under the same Facility and of the same Type and in the same currency
made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments under the applicable
Facility (or, in the case of Swingline Loans, ratably in accordance with their respective Swingline
Commitments); provided, however, that Revolving Facility Loans shall be made by the Revolving
Facility Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Facility Percentages on the
date such Loans are made hereunder. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made
by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the
Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s
failure to make Loans as required.




          (b) Each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the
Borrower may request in accordance herewith.




          (c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing
shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less
than the Borrowing Minimum; provided that a Eurodollar Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that
is equal to the entire unused balance of the Revolving Facility Commitments or that is required to
finance the reimbursement of a Revolving L/C Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.05(e). At
the time that each ABR Borrowing by the Borrower is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate
amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing
Minimum; provided that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire
unused balance of the Revolving Facility Commitments or that is required to finance the
reimbursement of a Revolving L/C Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.05(e). Each Swingline
Borrowing by the Borrower shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing
Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum. Borrowings of more than one Type and under more
than one Facility may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be
more than a total of (i) ten (10) Interest Periods in respect of Borrowings outstanding under the
Revolving Facility and (ii) five (5) Interest Periods in respect of Borrowings outstanding under
all other Facilities.




          (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled
to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with
respect thereto would end after, in the case of Revolving Loans, the Revolving Facility Maturity
Date and, in the case of Incremental Term Loans, the applicable Incremental Facility Maturity Date.




          Section 2.03. Requests for Borrowings. To request a Revolving Facility Borrowing and/or a

Swingline Lender’s Swingline Commitments or (z) the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure exceeding
the total Revolving Facility Commitments; provided that no Swingline Lender shall be required to
make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Borrowing. Within the foregoing limits
and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and
reborrow Swingline Loans. All Swingline Loans shall be ABR Loans under this Agreement.

request by telephone (confirmed by a Swingline Borrowing Request by telecopy) not later than 11:00

of a Swingline Borrowing made to finance the reimbursement of a Revolving L/C Disbursement as
provided in Section 2.05(e), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank).




          (c) A Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent (and to the
other Swingline Lenders) not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time on any Business Day, require
the Revolving Facility Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion
of the outstanding Swingline Loans made by it. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of
such Swingline Loans in which the Revolving Facility Lenders will participate. Promptly upon
receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each such Lender,
specifying in such notice such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of such Swingline Loan or
Loans. Each Revolving Facility Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of
notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable
Swingline Lender, such Revolving Facility Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of such Swingline
Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Facility Lender acknowledges and agrees that its respective
obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence
and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such
payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each
Revolving Facility Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of
immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans
made by such Revolving Facility Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the
payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the
applicable Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Facility Lenders. The
Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired
pursuant to this paragraph (c), and thereafter payments by the Borrower in respect of such
Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the applicable Swingline
Lender. Any amounts received by a Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or any other party on behalf
of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by such Swingline Lender of the
proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be remitted promptly to the Administrative
Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be remitted promptly by the
Administrative Agent to the Revolving Facility Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant
to this paragraph and to such Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear; provided that any
such payment so remitted shall be repaid to such Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent,
as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any
reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not
relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.




          Section 2.05. Revolving Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions
set forth herein, the Borrower may request the issuance of Revolving Letters of Credit denominated
in U.S. Dollars for its own account or on behalf of any other Loan Party in a form reasonably
acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the
Availability Period and prior to the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving
Facility Maturity Date; provided, that, the aggregate face amount of any Revolving
Letters of Credit issued on the Closing Date, together with the aggregate principal amount of any
Revolving Loans borrowed on the Closing Date, shall not exceed U.S. $275.0 million. In the event of
any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions
of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or
entered into by the Borrower with, an Issuing Bank relating to any Revolving Letter of Credit, the
terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

          (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the
issuance of a Revolving Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal (other than an automatic
renewal in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section) or extension of an outstanding Revolving
Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic
communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Bank) to
the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent two (2) Business Days in advance of the
requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, a notice requesting the issuance of a
Revolving Letter of Credit, or identifying the Revolving Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or
extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a
Business Day), the date on which such Revolving Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply
with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Revolving Letter of Credit, the name and
address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to issue,
amend, renew or extend such Revolving Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing
Bank, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard
form in connection with any request for a Revolving Letter of Credit. A Revolving Letter of Credit
shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or
extension of each Revolving Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant
that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the Revolving
Facility Credit Exposure shall not exceed the total Revolving Facility Commitments and (ii) the
aggregate available amount of all Revolving Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Bank shall not
exceed such Issuing Bank’s Revolving L/C Commitment.




          (c) Expiration Date. Each Revolving Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of
business on the earlier of (A) unless the applicable Issuing Bank agrees to a later expiration
date, the date one (1) year after the date of the issuance of such Revolving Letter of Credit (or,
in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (B)
the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Facility Maturity Date; provided
that any Revolving Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may provide for the automatic renewal
thereof for additional one-year periods (which, in no event, shall extend beyond the date referred
to in clause (B) of this paragraph (c)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower may request
the issuance of one or more Revolving Letters of Credit that expire at or prior to the close of
business on the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Facility Maturity Date;
provided that the Revolving L/C Exposure in respect of Revolving Letters of Credit issued pursuant
to this sentence shall not exceed U.S.$10.0 million.




          (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Revolving Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a
Revolving Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the
part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Revolving Facility Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby
grants to each Revolving Facility Lender, and each Revolving Facility Lender hereby acquires from
such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Revolving Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving
Facility Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under
such Revolving Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each
Revolving Facility Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent in U.S. Dollars such Revolving Facility Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of each
Revolving L/C Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due
as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be
refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Revolving Facility Lender acknowledges and agrees
that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Revolving
Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance
whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Revolving Letter of Credit or the
occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the
Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or
reduction whatsoever.




          (e) Reimbursement. If the applicable Issuing Bank shall make any Revolving L/C Disbursement in
respect of a Revolving Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such Revolving L/C
Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such Revolving L/C
Disbursement in U.S. Dollars, not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day
immediately following the date the Borrower receives notice under paragraph (g) of this Section of
such Revolving L/C Disbursement; provided that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to
borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed
with an ABR Loan, a Eurodollar Loan or a Swingline Borrowing in an equivalent amount, and, in each
case to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged
and replaced by the resulting Loan or Borrowing, as applicable; provided that in the case of any
Eurodollar Loan, such request must be made three Business Days prior to such refinancing in
accordance with Section 2.03. If the Borrower fails to reimburse any Revolving L/C Disbursement
when due, then the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Issuing Bank and each
other Revolving Facility Lender of the applicable Revolving L/C Disbursement, the payment then due
from the Borrower and, in the case of a Revolving Facility Lender, such Lender’s Revolving Facility
Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Facility Lender shall
pay to the Administrative Agent in U.S. Dollars its Revolving Facility Percentage of the payment
then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans
made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of
the Revolving Facility Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable
Issuing Bank in U.S. Dollars the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Facility Lenders.
Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to
this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing
Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Facility Lenders have made payments pursuant to this






29









 







paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their
interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Facility Lender pursuant to this paragraph to
reimburse an Issuing Bank for any Revolving L/C Disbursement (other than the funding of an ABR
Loan, a Eurodollar Loan, or a Swingline Borrowing as contemplated above) shall not constitute a
Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Revolving L/C
Disbursement.




          (f) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse Revolving L/C
Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and
irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under
any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability
of any Revolving Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any
draft or other document presented under a Revolving Letter of Credit proving to be forged,
fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any
respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Revolving Letter of Credit against
presentation of a draft or other document that does not strictly comply with the terms of such
Revolving Letter of Credit or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not
similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a
legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations
hereunder; provided that, in each case, payment by the Issuing Bank shall not have constituted
gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any
Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by
reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Revolving Letter of Credit or any
payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances
referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in
transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any
Revolving Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any
error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the
control of such Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the
applicable Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as
opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to
the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are determined by a court
having jurisdiction to have been caused by (A) such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise reasonable
care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Revolving Letter of
Credit comply with the terms thereof or (B) such Issuing Bank’s refusal to issue a Revolving Letter
of Credit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The parties hereto expressly agree that,
in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing
Bank, such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in each such
determination and each refusal to issue a Revolving Letter of Credit. In furtherance of the
foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to
documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a
Revolving Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept
and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless
of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such
documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Revolving Letter of
Credit.




          (g) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt
thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Revolving
Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has
made or will make a Revolving L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or
delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such
Issuing Bank and the Revolving Facility Lenders with respect to any such Revolving L/C
Disbursement.




          (h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any Revolving L/C Disbursement, then,
unless the Borrower shall reimburse such Revolving L/C Disbursement in full on the date such
Revolving L/C Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day
from and including the date such Revolving L/C Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that
the Borrower reimburses such Revolving L/C Disbursement, at the rate per annum equal to the rate
per annum then applicable to ABR Loans; provided that, if such Revolving L/C Disbursement is not
reimbursed by the Borrower when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(c)
shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable
Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving
Facility Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be
for the account of such Revolving Facility Lender to the extent of such payment.




          (i) Replacement of an Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written
agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor
Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an
Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all
unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12. From and
after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the
rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Revolving
Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank”
shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor
and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing
Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have
all the rights and obligations of such Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Revolving
Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement but shall not be required to issue
additional Revolving Letters of Credit.







30









 








          (j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, (i) in the
case of an Event of Default described in Section 7.01(h) or 7.01(i), as provided in the following
proviso or (ii) in the case of any other Event of Default, on the third Business Day following the
date on which the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent (or, if the maturity of
the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Facility Lenders with Revolving L/C Exposure representing
greater than 50% of the total Revolving L/C Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral
pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent
(or an account in the name of the Administrative Agent with another institution designated by the
Administrative Agent), in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders,
an amount in cash in U.S. Dollars equal to the Revolving L/C Exposure in respect of the Borrower as
of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that, upon the occurrence of
any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Section 7.01,
the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit
shall become immediately due and payable in U.S. Dollars, without demand or other notice of any
kind. The Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the
extent required by Section 2.11(b). Each such deposit pursuant to this paragraph or pursuant to
Section 2.11(b) shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and
performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall
control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, such account. Other than any interest earned
on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole
discretion of (A) for so long as an Event of Default shall be continuing, the Administrative Agent
and (B) at any other time, the Borrower, in each case, in term deposits constituting Permitted
Investments and at the risk and expense of the Borrower, such deposits shall not bear interest.
Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such
account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank for Revolving
L/C Disbursements for which such Issuing Bank has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so
applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the Revolving L/C Reimbursement Obligations of the
Borrower for the Revolving L/C Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans to the
Borrower has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Facility Lenders with
Revolving L/C Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total Revolving L/C Exposure), be
applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. If the Borrower is
required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an
Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the
Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If
the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section
2.11(b), such amount together with interest thereon (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall
be returned to the Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the
Borrower would remain in compliance with Section 2.11(b) and no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing.




          (k) Additional Issuing Banks. From time to time, the Borrower may by notice to the
Administrative Agent designate up to four Lenders that agree (in their sole discretion) to act in
such capacity and are reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent as Issuing Banks. Each
such additional Issuing Bank shall execute a counterpart of this Agreement upon the approval of the
Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and shall thereafter be an
Issuing Bank hereunder for all purposes.




          (l) Reporting. Each Issuing Bank shall (i) provide to the Administrative Agent copies of any
notice received from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.05(b) no later than the next Business Day
after receipt thereof, (ii) provide the Administrative Agent with a copy of the Revolving Letter of
Credit, or the amendment, renewal or extension of the Revolving Letter of Credit, as applicable, on
the Business Day on which such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews or extends any Revolving Letter
of Credit, (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any Revolving L/C
Disbursement, advise the Administrative Agent of the date of such Revolving L/C Disbursement and
the amount of such Revolving L/C Disbursement and (iv) on any other Business Day, furnish the
Administrative Agent with such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably
request. If requested by any Lender, the Administrative Agent shall provide copies to such Lender
of the documents referred to in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence.




          Section 2.06. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it to
the Borrower hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds
by 12:00 noon, New York City time (or, in the case of Incremental Term Loans, such other time as
shall be agreed to by the Incremental Term Lenders), to the account of the Administrative Agent
most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline
Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans
available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to such
account of the Borrower as is designated by the Borrower in the Borrowing Request; provided that
ABR Loans and Swingline Borrowings made to finance the reimbursement of a Revolving L/C
Disbursement and reimbursements as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the
Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank.




          (b) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed time of
any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s
share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share
available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon
such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender
has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent,
then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent
forthwith on demand (without duplication) such corresponding amount with






31









 







interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to
the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case
of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the
Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in
the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such
amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included
in such Borrowing.




          Section 2.07. Interest Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified
in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an
initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect
to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a
Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The
Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing,
in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans
comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a
separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be
converted or continued.




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




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





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




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




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




     (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be
applicable thereto after giving effect to such election.


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




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




          (e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to one of
its Eurodollar Borrowings prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless
such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period, the Borrower shall
be deemed to have converted such Borrowing to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary
provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative
Agent, at the written request (including a request through electronic means) of the Required
Lenders (unless such Event of Default is an Event of Default under Section 7.01(h) or (i), in which
case no such request shall be required), so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of
Default is continuing, (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a
Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR
Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.




          Section 2.08. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, the
Revolving Facility Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Facility Maturity Date.




          (b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving
Facility Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Revolving Facility Commitments shall
be in an amount that is an integral multiple of U.S.$500,000 and not less than U.S.$2.0 million
(or, if less, the remaining amount of the Revolving Facility Commitments), and (ii) the Borrower
shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Facility Commitments if, after giving effect to any
concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Facility Loans by the Borrower in accordance with Section
2.11, the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure would exceed the total Revolving Facility Commitments.




          (c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce
the Revolving Facility Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three (3) Business
Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the
effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall
advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower
pursuant to this Section shall be






32









 







irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Facility Commitments
delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other
credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the
Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not
satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Facility Commitments shall be permanent.
Each reduction of the Revolving Facility Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in
accordance with their respective Revolving Facility Commitments.




          Section 2.09. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally
promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Facility Lender
the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Facility Loan on the Revolving Facility Maturity
Date and (ii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on
the earlier of the Revolving Facility Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is
made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least seven Business Days after
such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Revolving Facility Borrowing (other
than a Borrowing that is required to finance the reimbursement of a Revolving L/C Disbursement as
contemplated by Section 2.05(e)) is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then
outstanding.




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




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




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




          (e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note
substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 or Exhibit G-2, as applicable. In such
event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to
such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a
form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note
and interest thereon shall at all times (including, to the extent requested by any assignee, after
assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form
payable to the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee
and its registered assigns).




          Section 2.10. Repayment of Loans. (a) To the extent not previously paid, all Revolving
Facility Loans shall be due and payable on the Revolving Facility Maturity Date, and all
Incremental Loans shall be due and payable as and when set forth in the joinder agreement with
respect thereto and, to the extent not previously paid, all Incremental Term Loans shall be due and
payable on the Incremental Maturity Date applicable to such Incremental Term Loans.




          (b) (x) all Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 2.11(c) shall be applied (i) first,
ratably among the Incremental Term Lenders, in each case to prepay Incremental Term Loans in direct
order of maturity to all amortization payments in respect of the Incremental Term Loans due in the
immediately succeeding 24 month period from the date of such prepayment, and if any such Net
Proceeds remain after such payment, then on a pro rata basis to the remaining amortization payments
in respect of the Incremental Term Loans, (ii) second, if any excess Net Proceeds remain
after prepaying all Incremental Term Loans then outstanding, applied ratably among the Swingline
Lenders to prepay any outstanding Swingline Loans, and (iii) third, if any excess remains
after prepaying all Swingline Loans then outstanding, applied ratably among the Revolving Lenders
to prepay any Revolving Facility Loans then outstanding and (y) any optional prepayments of the
Revolving Facility Loans or the Incremental Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(a) shall be applied
ratably among the relevant Lenders under the Revolving Facility Loans or the Incremental Term
Loans, as applicable, as directed by the Borrower.




          (c) Prior to any repayment of any Borrowing, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or
Borrowings to be repaid and shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by
telecopy) of such selection not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, (i) in the case of an ABR
Borrowing, one Business Day before the scheduled date of such repayment and (ii) in the case of a
Eurodollar Borrowing, three Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment. Each
repayment of a Borrowing (x) in the case of the Revolving Facility, shall be applied to the
Revolving Facility Loans included in the repaid Borrowing such that each Revolving Facility Lender
receives its ratable share of such repayment (based upon the respective Revolving Facility Credit
Exposures of the Revolving Facility Lenders at the time of such repayment) and (y) in all other
cases, shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Borrowing. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence, prior to any repayment of a
Swingline Borrowing hereunder, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid
and shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such selection
not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the scheduled date of such repayment.

          Section 2.11. Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from
time to time to prepay Revolving Facility Loans in whole or in part, without premium or penalty
(but subject to Section 2.16), in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of the
Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum or, if less, the amount outstanding,
subject to prior notice in the form of Exhibit B hereto provided in accordance with Section
2.10(c). The Borrower shall have the right to prepay Incremental Term Loans as set forth in the
applicable joinder agreement in respect of such Incremental Term Loans.




          (b) If on any date, the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Revolving Facility
Credit Exposure exceeds the aggregate Revolving Facility Commitments of the Lenders on such date,
the Borrower shall, as soon as practicable and in any event within two Business Days following such
date, prepay the outstanding principal amount of any Revolving Facility Loans (and, to the extent
after giving effect to such prepayment, the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure still exceeds the
aggregate Revolving Facility Commitments of the Lenders, deposit cash collateral in an account with
the Administrative Agent (or an account in the name of the Administrative Agent with another
institution designated by the Administrative Agent) pursuant to Section 2.05(j)) such that the
aggregate amount so prepaid by the Borrower and cash collateral so deposited in an account with the
Administrative Agent (or an account in the name of the Administrative Agent with another
institution designated by the Administrative Agent) pursuant to Section 2.05(j)) shall be
sufficient to reduce such sum to an amount not to exceed the aggregate Revolving Facility
Commitments of the Lenders on such date together with any interest accrued to the date of such
prepayment on the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Facility Loans prepaid. The
Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 2.11(b)
to the Borrower and the Lenders.




          (c) The Borrower shall apply all Net Proceeds received by it or its Subsidiaries upon (and in
any event within three Business Days of) receipt thereof to prepay any Incremental Term Loans
and/or Revolving Facility Borrowings in accordance with paragraphs (b) and (c) of Section 2.10.




          (d) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment
of Loans required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.11 at
least five (5) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify
the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such
prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of the contents of the
Borrower’s prepayment notice and of such Lender’s pro rata share of the prepayment.




          (e) In the event of any termination of all the Revolving Facility Commitments, the Borrower
shall, on the date of such termination, repay or prepay all its outstanding Revolving Facility
Loans and all its outstanding Swingline Loans and terminate all its outstanding Revolving Letters
of Credit and/or cash collateralize such Revolving Letters of Credit in accordance with Section
2.05(j). If as a result of any partial reduction of the Revolving Facility Commitments, the
aggregate Revolving Facility Exposure would exceed the aggregate Revolving Facility Commitments of
all Revolving Facility Lenders after giving effect thereto, then the Borrower shall, on the date of
such reduction, repay or prepay Revolving Facility Loans or Swingline Loans (or a combination
thereof) and/or cash collateralize Revolving Letters of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate
such excess.




          Section 2.12. Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to each Lender, without duplication of any
other amounts paid to such Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender), through the Administrative
Agent, three Business Days after the last day of March, June, September and December in each year,
and on the date on which the Revolving Facility Commitments of all the Lenders shall be terminated
as provided herein, a commitment fee (a “Commitment Fee”) on the daily amount of the Available
Unused Commitment of such Lender during the preceding quarter up until the last day of such quarter
(or other period commencing with the Closing Date (or the last date on which such fee was paid) and
ending with the last day of such quarter or the Revolving Facility Maturity Date or the date on
which the last of the Commitments of such Lender shall be terminated, as applicable) at the rate
per annum equal to 0.50%.




     All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a
year of 360 days. For the purpose of calculating any Lender’s Commitment Fee, the outstanding
Swingline Loans during the period for which such Lender’s Commitment Fee is calculated shall be
deemed to be zero. The Commitment Fee due to each Lender shall begin to accrue on the Closing Date
and shall cease to accrue on the date on which the last of the Commitments of such Lender shall be
terminated as provided herein.



          (b) The Borrower from time to time agrees to pay to each Revolving Facility Lender (other than
any Defaulting Lender), through the Administrative Agent, three Business Days after the last day of
March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Facility
Commitments of all the Lenders shall be terminated as provided herein, a fee
(a “Revolving L/C Participation Fee”) on such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the
daily aggregate Revolving L/C Exposure (excluding the portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed
Revolving L/C Disbursements), during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the
Closing Date (or the last date on which such fee was paid) and ending with the last day of such
quarter or the Revolving Facility Maturity Date or the date on which the Revolving Facility
Commitments shall be terminated, as






34









 







applicable) at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Revolving
Facility Borrowings effective for each day in such period.




          (c) The Borrower from time to time agrees to pay to each Issuing Bank, for its own account,
(x) on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on
which the Revolving Facility Commitments of all the Lenders shall terminate as provided herein, a
fronting fee in an amount equal to 0.25% per annum of the daily average stated amount of such
Revolving Letter of Credit, in respect of each Revolving Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing
Bank for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Revolving Letter of Credit to
and including the termination of such Revolving Letter of Credit, plus (y) in connection with the
issuance, amendment or transfer of any such Revolving Letter of Credit or any Revolving L/C
Disbursement thereunder, such Issuing Bank’s customary documentary and processing charges
(collectively, “Issuing Bank Fees”). All Revolving L/C Participation Fees and Issuing Bank Fees
that are payable on a per annum basis shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days
elapsed in a year of 360 days.




          (d) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the
Administrative Agent, the administrative fee set forth in clause (c) of the fourth paragraph of the
Fee Letter at the times specified therein or such other administrative fee as agreed between the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing (such fees, the “Administrative Agent Fees”) and
to pay all other fees due and payable under clauses (a) and (b) of the fourth paragraph of the Fee
Letter, provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of calculating the fees payable
under clauses (a) and (b) of the fourth paragraph of the Fee Letter, the aggregate amount of the
Revolving Facility on the Closing Date shall be equal to $400,000,000.




          (e) All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the
Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except that
Issuing Bank Fees shall be paid directly to the applicable Issuing Banks. Once paid, none of the
Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.




          Section 2.13. Interest. (a) The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of
each ABR Loan (including each Swingline Loan) at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable
Margin.




          (b) The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Loan at
the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Eurodollar Loan plus the
Applicable Margin.




          (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any Fees or
other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity,
upon acceleration or otherwise, the Borrower shall pay interest on such overdue amount, after as
well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of overdue principal of any
Loan, 2.00% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs
of this Section or (y) in the case of any other amount, 2.00% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans
with respect to the Revolving Facility in paragraph (a) of this Section; provided that this
paragraph (c) shall not apply to any Default or Event of Default that has been waived by the
Lenders pursuant to Section 9.08.




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




          (e) All computations of interest shall be made by the Administrative Agent taking into account
the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such interest is payable pursuant to
this Section, and (i) if based on the Alternate Base Rate (if based on the Prime Rate), a year of
365 days or 366 days, as the case may be; or (ii) otherwise, on the basis of a year of 360 days.




          Section 2.14. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period
for a Eurodollar Borrowing:




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




          (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders or the Majority Lenders under
the Revolving Facility or any Facility of Incremental Term Loans that the Eurodollar Rate for such
Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or
maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; then the
Administrative Agent shall give written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as promptly
as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders
that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (x) any Interest Election
Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a
Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing
on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, and (y) if any Borrowing Request
requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing or shall be made
as a Borrowing bearing interest at such rate as the Required Lenders or the Majority Lenders under
the






35









 







Revolving Facility or any Facility of Incremental Term Loans shall agree adequately reflects
the costs to the Revolving Facility Lenders of making the Loans comprising such Borrowing.




          Section 2.15. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:





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




     (ii) impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any tax, costs,
expenses or other condition affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any
Revolving Letter of Credit or participation therein (including a condition similar to the
events described in clause (i) above in the form of a tax, cost or expense) (except in each
case (A) for Indemnified Taxes indemnified pursuant to Section 2.17 and Excluded Taxes and (B)
for changes in the rate of tax on the overall rate of net income of such Lender);


and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or
maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) to the Borrower or to
increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any
Revolving Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender
or Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) (except in each case (A)
for Indemnified Taxes indemnified pursuant to Section 2.17 and Excluded Taxes and (B) for changes
in the rate of tax on the overall rate of net income of such Lender), then the Borrower will pay to
such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or reduction
suffered in connection therewith.




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




          (c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary
to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, the
amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.




          (d) Promptly after any Lender or any Issuing Bank has determined that it will make a request
for increased compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall notify
the Borrower thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand
compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing
Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to
compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or
reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as
applicable, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or
reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor;
provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is
retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of
retroactive effect thereof.




          Section 2.16. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any
Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a
result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last
day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or
prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto or (d) the
assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable
thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event,
the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such
event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed
to be the amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest
which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the
Eurodollar Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such
event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to
borrow, convert or continue a Eurodollar Loan, for the period that would have been the Interest
Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount
for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the
commencement of such period, for deposits in U.S. Dollars of a comparable amount and period from
other banks in the Eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender






36









 







setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this
Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The
Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after
receipt thereof.




          Section 2.17. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan
Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if a Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any
other Person acting on behalf of the Administrative Agent in regards to payments hereunder shall be
required to deduct Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable by
the Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative
Agent, Lender, or Issuing Bank, as applicable, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have
received had no such deductions for Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes been made, (ii) such Loan
Party, if required to deduct any such Taxes, shall make such deductions and (iii) such Loan Party,
if required to deduct any such Taxes, shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.




          (b) In addition, each Loan Party shall pay any Other Taxes payable on account of any
obligation of such Loan Party and upon the execution, delivery or enforcement of, or otherwise with
respect to, the Loan Documents, to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable law.




          (c) Each Loan Party shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing
Bank, within 30 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes resulting from gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank) without duplication of
any amounts indemnified under Section 2.17(a)) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender or
Issuing Bank, as applicable, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation
of such Loan Party under, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document (including Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section)
and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority; provided that a certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability
and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation for such payment or liability
delivered to such Loan Party by a Lender or an Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its
own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error
of the Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, as applicable.




          (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Loan
Party to a Governmental Authority, such 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.




          (e) Each Lender or Issuing Bank that is not a “United States Person” as defined in Section
7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, deliver
to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8BEN (claiming the benefits of an applicable income tax treaty), W-8EXP, W-8IMY (together with
any required attachments) or Form W-8ECI, or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption
from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to
payments of “portfolio interest”, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit H and a
Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly
executed by such Non-U.S. Lender (with any other required forms attached) claiming complete
exemption from or a reduced rate of U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by the Borrower
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender or Issuing Bank that is not a
Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent two copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, properly completed and
duly executed by such Lender or Issuing Bank, claiming complete exemption (or otherwise
establishing an exemption) from U.S. backup withholding on all payments under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Lender or Issuing Bank, to the
extent it may lawfully do so, on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in
the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related
participation). In addition, each Lender or Issuing Bank, to the extent it may lawfully do so,
shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously
delivered by such Lender or Issuing Bank. Each Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position
to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent (or any
other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Without
limiting the foregoing, any Lender or Issuing Bank that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction of withholding Tax otherwise indemnified against by a Loan Party pursuant to this Section
2.17 with respect to payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower or the relevant
Governmental Authority (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), to the extent such Lender or
Issuing Bank is legally entitled to do so, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law such
properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as may reasonably be
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to permit such payments to be made without
such withholding tax or at a reduced rate; provided that in such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s
judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice such Lender or
Issuing Bank.

          (f) If the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank determines, in good faith and in its
sole discretion, that it has received a refund of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it
has been indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which a Loan Party has paid additional
amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund to such Loan Party (but only
to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this
Section 2.17 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net
of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (including any
Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) as is determined by the Administrative Agent, Lender or
Issuing Bank in good faith and in its sole discretion, and without interest (other than any
interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that
such Loan Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, agrees to
repay as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any
penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the
Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank in the event such Administrative Agent, Lender or
Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall
not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank to make available its
Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the
Loan Parties or any other Person.




          Section 2.18. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) Unless
otherwise specified, the Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder
(whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of Revolving L/C Disbursements, or of
amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City
time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without condition or deduction for any
defense, recoupment, set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may,
in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next
succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be
made to the Administrative Agent to the applicable account designated to the Borrower by the
Administrative Agent, except payments to be made directly to the applicable Issuing Bank or the
applicable Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to
Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.05 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The
Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other
Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder
shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the
next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon
shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder of (i) principal or
interest in respect of any Loan or (ii) Revolving L/C Reimbursement Obligations shall in each case
be made in U.S. Dollars. All payments of other amounts due hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall be made in U.S. Dollars. Any payment required to be made by the Administrative Agent
hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if the Administrative Agent shall,
at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment
in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system
used by the Administrative Agent to make such payment.




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




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

          (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the
date on which any payment by the Borrower is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Lenders or the applicable 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, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable
Issuing Bank, as applicable, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made
such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, severally
agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such
Lender or 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 Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in
accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.




          (e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section
2.04(c), 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b) or 2.18(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion
(notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such
Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.




          Section 2.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests
compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Loan Party is required to pay any additional amount to
any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17,
then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding
or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its
offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or
assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as
applicable, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost
or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any material respect. The
Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in
connection with any such designation or assignment.




          (b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Loan Party is required
to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any
Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or is a Defaulting Lender, then such Loan Party may, at its sole
expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to
assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained
in Section 9.04, all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that
shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such
assignment); provided that (i) such Loan Party shall have received the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent and, solely in the case of an assignment of Revolving Facility Commitments
and/or Revolving Facility Loans, each Issuing Bank and each Swingline Lender, which consent shall
not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to
the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in Revolving L/C Disbursements and
Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it
hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and
fees) or such Loan Party (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such
assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be
made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or
payments. Nothing in this Section 2.19 shall be deemed to prejudice any rights that any Loan Party
may have against any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender.




          (c) If any Lender (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has failed to consent to a proposed
amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 9.08 requires
the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall
have granted their consent, then provided no Event of Default then exists, the Borrower shall have
the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) to replace such Non-Consenting
Lender by requiring such Non-Consenting Lender to assign its Loans and Commitments hereunder to one
or more assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and, solely in the case of an
assignment of Revolving Facility Commitments and/or Revolving Facility Loans, each Issuing Bank and
each Swingline Lender, provided that: (i) all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such
Non-Consenting Lender being replaced shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender
concurrently with such assignment, and (ii) the replacement Lender shall purchase the foregoing by
paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and
unpaid interest thereon. In connection with any such assignment the Borrower, Administrative Agent,
such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 9.04.




          Section 2.20. Increase in Revolving Facility Commitments; Incremental Term Loan Commitments.
(a) Incremental Commitments. At any time following the earlier of (x) completion of the syndication
of the Revolving Loan Facility (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent) and (y) 90
days after the Closing Date and prior to the Revolving Facility Maturity Date, the Borrower may by
written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to request an increase to the existing Revolving
Facility Commitments (any such increase, the “Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments”) and/or
may request that commitments be made in respect of term loans (the “Incremental Term Facility
Commitments” and together with the Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments, if any, the
“Incremental Commitments”), in an aggregate principal amount, collectively, not to exceed the
greater of (x) U.S.$50.0 million and (y) U.S.$100.0 million if on a Pro Forma Basis, after giving
effect to the incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans or such Incremental Revolving Facility
Commitments, the First Lien Leverage Ratio would not exceed 3.50 to 1.00, or, in






39









 







each case, a lesser amount in integral multiples of U.S.$5.0 million. Such notice shall
specify the date (an “Increased Amount Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the Incremental
Commitments, and in the case of Incremental Term Facility Commitments, the date the Incremental
Term Loans, shall be made available, which shall be a date not less than 5 Business Days after the
date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall notify the
Administrative Agent in writing of the identity of each Revolving Facility Lender or other
financial institution (which in any event shall not be the Borrower or an Affiliate of the
Borrower) reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, and in the case of any Person
committing to any Incremental Revolving Facility Commitment, reasonably acceptable to the Issuing
Banks and the Swingline Lenders (each, an “Incremental Revolving Facility Lender,” an “Incremental
Term Lender”, or generally, an “Incremental Lender”, as applicable) to whom the Incremental
Commitments have been (in accordance with the prior sentence) allocated and the amounts of such
allocations; provided that any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the Incremental
Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide an Incremental Commitment.
Such Incremental Commitments shall become effective as of such Increased Amount Date, and in the
case of Incremental Term Facility Commitments, such new Loans in respect thereof (“Incremental Term
Loans”) shall be made on such Increased Amount Date; provided that (i) no Default or Event of
Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such Incremental
Commitments and Incremental Term Loans; (ii) the representations and warranties contained in
Article III and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and
as of the Increased Amount Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties
specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall have been true and correct in all
material respects as of such earlier date; (iii) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be in
compliance, on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments and
Incremental Term Loans, with the covenants contained in Section 6.10 and Section 6.11 recomputed as
at the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries;
(iv) such increase in the Incremental Commitments shall be evidenced by one or more joinder
agreements executed and delivered to Administrative Agent by each Incremental Lender, as
applicable, and each shall be recorded in the register, each of which shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and subject to the requirements set forth in Section
2.17(e); (v) the Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.16 in connection
with the provisions of the Incremental Commitments; (vi) the Borrower and its Affiliates shall not
be permitted to commit to or participate in any Incremental Commitments or make any Incremental
Term Loans and (vii) if the Applicable Margin for any Incremental Term Loan exceeds the then
applicable Applicable Margin for the Revolving Facility by more than 50 basis points (the excess of
(A) such Applicable Margin for the Incremental Term Loans over (B) the Applicable Margin for the
Revolving Facility plus 50 basis points being the relevant “Margin Differential”), then
each Applicable Margin for the Revolving Facility for each adversely affected existing Revolving
Facility Commitment shall automatically be increased by the Margin Differential effective upon the
making of the Incremental Term Loan. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the
effectiveness of any joinder agreements in connection with any Incremental Commitments as described
in the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the
extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Commitments and the
Incremental Term Loans evidenced thereby, and the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may revise
this Agreement to evidence such amendments without the consent of any Lender.




          (b) On any Increased Amount Date on which Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments are
effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each of the
existing Revolving Facility Lenders shall assign to each of the Incremental Revolving Facility
Lenders, and each of the Incremental Revolving Facility Lenders shall purchase from each of the
existing Revolving Facility Lenders, at the principal amount thereof, such interests in the
outstanding Revolving Facility Loans and participations in Revolving Letters of Credit and
Swingline Loans outstanding on such Increased Amount Date that will result in, after giving effect
to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Facility Loans and participations in
Revolving Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans being held by existing Revolving Facility Lenders
and Incremental Revolving Facility Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Facility
Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments
to the Revolving Facility Commitments, (ii) each Incremental Revolving Facility Commitment shall be
deemed for all purposes a Revolving Facility Commitment and each Loan made thereunder shall be
deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Facility Loan and have the same terms as any existing
Revolving Facility Loan and (iii) each Incremental Revolving Facility Lender shall become a Lender
with respect to the Revolving Facility Commitments and all matters relating thereto.




          (c) Subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, any loans made in
respect of any Incremental Term Loan Commitment shall be made as a new tranche of term loans (an
“Additional Term Loan Tranche”) or as part of an existing Additional Term Loan Tranche previously
incurred pursuant to this Section 2.20; provided that (x) any Additional Term Loan Tranche shall
not mature prior to the Revolving Facility Maturity Date and the Additional Term Loan Tranche shall
include such scheduled amortization provisions as determined by the Borrower and the Incremental
Term Lenders committing to such Additional Term Loan Tranche, (y) the interest rates applicable to
such Additional Term Loan Tranche shall be determined by the Borrower and the Incremental Term
Lenders and (z) the Additional Term Loan Tranche shall be on terms and pursuant to documentation to
be determined by the Borrower and the Incremental Term Lenders, provided that to the extent such
terms and documentation are not consistent with the Revolving Facility, except to the extent
provided by sub-clauses (x) and (y) above and except to the extent necessary to reflect inherent
differences between term loan facilities and revolving credit facilities, they shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.







40









 








          (d) All Incremental Term Loans made on any Increased Amount Date will be made in accordance
with the procedures set forth in Section 2.03.




          (e) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders promptly upon receipt of the Borrower’s
notice of an Increased Amount Date and, in respect thereof, the Incremental Commitments and the
Incremental Lenders.




          (f) As a condition precedent to the Borrower’s incurrence of additional Indebtedness pursuant
to this Section 2.20, (i) the Borrower shall, and shall cause each Loan Party to, enter into, and
deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, reaffirmations of the guarantees and
the security interests and Liens granted by the Loan Parties under the Collateral Documents in a
form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and (ii) with
respect to any Mortgaged Property, the Borrower shall, and shall cause each Loan Party to, enter
into, and deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, upon the reasonable request
of the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent (x) mortgage modifications or new Mortgages
with respect to any Mortgaged Property in each case in proper form for recording in the relevant
jurisdiction and in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent and (y) all other items reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent that are reasonably
necessary to maintain the continuing perfection or priority of the Lien of the Mortgages as
security for such Obligations.




          Section 2.21. Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any change in law has made
it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted after the Closing Date that it is
unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make or maintain any Eurodollar Loans,
then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any
obligations of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Loans or to convert ABR Borrowings to
Eurodollar Borrowings, as the case may be, shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no
longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a
copy to the Administrative Agent), convert all such Eurodollar Borrowings of such Lender to ABR
Borrowings on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to
maintain such Eurodollar Borrowings to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully
continue to maintain such Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also
pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.




          Section 2.22. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for
so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:




          (a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitments of such Defaulting
Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a);




          (b) the aggregate principal amount of Loans, Revolving L/C Exposures, Swingline Exposures and
Available Unused Commitment of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether
all Lenders, Required Lenders, Majority Lenders or affected Lenders have taken or may take any
action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.08);
provided that (i) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or
each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders
shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender, (ii) the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender
may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Defaulting Lender and (iii) any
amendment that reduces the principal amount of, or rate of interest on, any Loan made by such
Defaulting Lender, shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;




          (c) if any Swingline Exposure or Revolving L/C Exposure exists at the time a Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender then:





     (i) all or any part of such Swingline Exposure or Revolving L/C Exposure shall be
reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving
Facility Percentages but only to the extent (x) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate
Revolving Facility Credit Exposure of any non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such non-Defaulting
Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 are
satisfied at such time; and




     (ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be
effected, the Borrower shall within five Business Days following notice by the Administrative
Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize such
Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation
pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05(j)
for so long as such Revolving L/C Exposure is outstanding;




     (iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s
Revolving L/C Exposure pursuant to Section 2.22(c)(ii)(y), the Borrower shall not be required
to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12 with respect to such
Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving
L/C Exposure is cash collateralized;



41









 






     (iv) if the Swingline Exposure or Revolving L/C Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is
reallocated pursuant to Section 2.22(c)(i), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to
Section 2.12 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving
Facility Percentage; and




     (v) if any Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor
reallocated pursuant to Section 2.22(c)(i) or (ii), then, without prejudice to any rights or
remedies of the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all facility fees that otherwise would
have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such
Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Commitment that was utilized by such Revolving L/C Exposure)
and all Revolving L/C Participation Fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such
Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Bank
until such Revolving L/C exposure is cash collateralized and / or reallocated;



          (d) so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Swingline Lender shall be required to
fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any
Revolving Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered
by the Revolving Facility Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders or cash collateral will be
provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.22(c), and participating interests in any
such newly issued or increased Revolving Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be
allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.22(c)(i) (and
Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein); and




          (e) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative
Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender shall be applied at such time or times as may be
determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: (i) first, to the payment of any amounts
owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder, (ii) second, to the
payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or
Swingline Lender, (iii) third, 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 that Defaulting Lender has
failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, (iv) fourth, if so
determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by an Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, held in
such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender in respect
of any existing or future participating interest in any Swingline Loan or Revolving Letter of
Credit, (v) fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or an Issuing Bank or
Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any
Lender or such Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such
Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement, (vi) sixth, 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 Borrower against that
Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this
Agreement and (vii) seventh, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court
of competent jurisdiction, provided, with respect to this clause (vii), that if such
payment is (x) a prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which a Defaulting
Lender has funded its participation obligations and (y) made at a time when the conditions set
forth in Section 2.11 are satisfied, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Loans of,
and reimbursement obligations owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied
to the prepayment of any Loans, or reimbursement obligations owed to, any Defaulting Lender. Any
payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or
held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to Section
2.05(j) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender
irrevocably consents hereto.




          (f) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, each Issuing Bank and each
Swingline Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that
caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and Revolving L/C
Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving
Facility Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the
other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be
necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Revolving Facility
Percentage.

the Liens permitted by Section 6.02.




          Section 3.03. Enforceability. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the
Borrower and constitutes, and each other Loan Document when executed and delivered by each Loan

affecting creditors’ rights generally, (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such

faith and fair dealing.




          Section 3.04. Governmental Approvals. No action, consent or approval of, registration or
filing with or any other action by any Governmental Authority is or will be required in connection

be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.




          Section 3.05. Financial Statements. There has heretofore been furnished to the Lenders the
following (and the following representations and warranties are made with respect thereto):




          (a) The audited consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2007, December 31, 2008 and
December 31, 2009 and the related audited consolidated statements of operations and retained
earnings, comprehensive income and cash flows of the Borrower for the years ended December 31,
2007, December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2009, were prepared in accordance with GAAP applied not
only during such periods but also as compared to the periods covered by the financial statements of
the Borrower referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 3.05 (except as may be indicated in the
notes thereto) and fairly present the consolidated financial position of the Borrower as of the
dates thereof and its consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the period then ended.




          (b) The unaudited interim consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2010, and the related
statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Borrower for each completed fiscal
quarter since the date of the most recent audited financial statements and ending 45 days prior to
the Closing Date were prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied not only during such
periods but also as compared to the periods covered by the financial statements of the Borrower
referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section 3.05 (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto)
and fairly present the consolidated financial position of the Borrower as of the dates thereof and
its consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject to normal
year-end adjustments).




          (c) The pro forma consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower as of June 30, 2010, prepared
giving effect to the Transactions as if the Transactions had occurred on such date. Such pro forma
consolidated balance sheet (i) was prepared in good faith based on assumptions that are believed by
the Borrower to be reasonable as of the Closing Date (it being understood that such assumptions are
based on good faith estimates with respect to certain items and that the actual amounts of such
items on the Closing Date is subject to variation), (ii) accurately reflects all adjustments
necessary to give effect to the Transactions and (iii) presents fairly, in all material respects,
the pro forma financial position of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2010, as if
the Transactions had occurred on such date.




          Section 3.06. No Material Adverse Effect. Since December 31, 2009, there has been no event or
occurrence which has resulted in or would reasonably be expected to result in, individually or in
the aggregate, any Material Adverse Effect.







43









 








          Section 3.07. Title to Properties; Possession Under Leases. (a) The Borrower and its Relevant
Subsidiaries have good and valid record fee simple title to all Real Property, subject solely to
Prior Liens and Permitted Encumbrances and except where the failure to have such title could not
reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. The
Borrower and its Relevant Subsidiaries have maintained, in all material respects and in accordance
with normal industry practice, all of the machinery, equipment, vehicles, facilities and other
tangible personal property now owned or leased by the Borrower and its Relevant Subsidiaries that
is necessary to conduct their business as it is now conducted. All Mortgaged Properties are free
and clear of Liens other than Prior Liens and Permitted Encumbrances.




          (b) The Borrower and its Relevant Subsidiaries have complied with all obligations under all
leases to which it is a party, except where the failure to comply could not have a Material Adverse
Effect, and all such leases are in full force and effect, except leases in respect of which the
failure to be in full force and effect could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. The Borrower and each of its Relevant Subsidiaries enjoy peaceful and undisturbed

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

received any notice of any pending or contemplated condemnation proceeding affecting any of the
Mortgaged Properties or any sale or disposition thereof in lieu of condemnation that remains

Subsidiary, the percentage of each class of Equity Interests owned by the Borrower or by any such

          (h) As of the Closing Date, there are no outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls,
rights or other agreements or commitments of any nature relating to any Equity Interests of the

credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying Margin Stock or to refund indebtedness
originally incurred for such purpose, or (ii) for any purpose that entails a violation of, or that
is inconsistent with, the provisions of the Regulations of the Board, including Regulation U or
Regulation X.




          Section 3.10. Investment Company Act. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Relevant
Subsidiaries is an “investment company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Loans and Swingline Loans, and may request the issuance of Revolving Letters of Credit, solely for
general corporate purposes (including the Closing Date Refinancing). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Borrower will use proceeds of Revolving Loans drawn and Revolving Letters of Credit issued on
the Closing Date solely to consummate the Closing Date Refinancing and to pay fees and expenses
related thereto; provided, that, the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans
borrowed on the Closing Date, together with the aggregate face amount of any Revolving Letters of
Credit issued on the Closing Date, shall not exceed U.S. $275.0 million.




          Section 3.12. Tax Returns. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.12, each of the Borrower
and its Subsidiaries (i) has timely filed or caused to be timely filed all federal, state, local
and non-U.S. Tax returns required to have been filed by it and each such Tax return is complete and
accurate in all respects and (ii) has timely paid or caused to be timely paid all Taxes due and

Taxes or assessments are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings in accordance
with Section 5.03 and for which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (as the case may be) has
set aside on its books adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP.




          Section 3.13. No Material Misstatements. (a) All written information (other than the
Projections, estimates and information of a general economic nature) (the “Information”) concerning
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, the Transaction and any other transactions contemplated hereby
included in the Information Memorandum or otherwise prepared by or on behalf of the Administrative
Agent in connection with the Transaction or the other transactions contemplated hereby, when taken
as a whole, was true and correct in all material respects, as of the date such Information was
furnished to the Lenders and as of the Closing Date, and did not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact as of any such date or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the
statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which
such statements were made.




          (b) The Projections prepared by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its representatives and
that have been made available to any Lenders or the Administrative Agent in connection with the
Transactions or the other transactions contemplated hereby (i) have been prepared in good faith
based upon assumptions believed by the Borrower to be reasonable as of the date thereof, as of the

Adverse Effect. As of the Closing Date, the excess of the present value of all benefit liabilities
under each Plan of the Borrower, and each Subsidiary of the Borrower and the ERISA Affiliates
(based on those assumptions used to fund such Plan), as of the last annual valuation date
applicable thereto for which a valuation is available, over the value of the assets of such Plan
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and the excess of the present
value of all benefit liabilities of all underfunded Plans (based on those assumptions used to fund
each such Plan) as of the last annual valuation dates applicable thereto for which valuations are
available, over the value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected
to occur that, when taken together with all other ERISA Events which have occurred or for which
liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.







45









 








          (b) Any foreign pension schemes sponsored or maintained by the Borrower and each of its

matters that could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material
Adverse Effect (i) no written notice, request for information, order, complaint, Environmental
Claim or penalty has been received or incurred by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and
there are no judicial, administrative or other actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the
knowledge of any of the Loan Parties, threatened against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
which allege a violation of or liability under any Environmental Laws, in each case relating to the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have obtained,
and maintains in full force and effect, all permits, registrations and licenses to the extent
necessary for the conduct of its businesses and operations as currently conducted, including for
the construction of all pipelines and facilities, to comply with all applicable Environmental Laws
and is, and has been, in compliance with the terms and conditions of such permits, registrations
and licenses, and with all applicable Environmental Laws, (iii) neither the Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries is conducting, funding or responsible for any investigation, remediation, remedial
action or cleanup of any Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials, (iv) there has been
no Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials at any property currently or, to the
knowledge of any of the Loan Parties, formerly owned, operated or leased by the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries that would reasonably be expected to give rise to any liability of the Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries under any Environmental Laws or Environmental Claim against the Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries, and no Hazardous Material has been generated, owned or controlled by the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and transported for disposal to or Released at any location in
a manner that would reasonably be expected to give rise to any liability of the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries under any Environmental Laws or Environmental Claim against the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries, (v) neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has entered into any
agreement or contract to assume, guarantee or indemnify a third party for any Environmental Claims,
and (vi) to the knowledge of any of the Loan Parties, there are not currently and there have not

present or located on the Borrower’s or any such Subsidiary’s Real Property. The Borrower and each
of its Subsidiaries have made available to the Administrative Agent prior to the date hereof all
environmental audits, assessment reports and other material environmental documents in its
possession or control with respect to the operations of, or any Real Property owned, operated or
leased by, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, other than such audits, assessment reports and other
environmental documents not containing information that would reasonably be expected to result in
any material Environmental Claims or liability to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole. For purposes of Section 7.01(a), each of the representations and warranties contained in
parts (i), (iv), and (vi) of this Section 3.15 that are qualified by the knowledge of the Borrower
and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed not to be so qualified. Representations and warranties of the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to environmental matters are limited to those in
this Section 3.15 unless expressly stated.




          Section 3.16. Mortgages. The Mortgages executed and delivered on or after the Closing Date
pursuant to clause (h) of the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement and Section 5.10 or otherwise
shall be effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured
Parties) a legal, valid and enforceable security interest on all of the Loan Parties’ right, title
and interest in and to the Mortgaged Property thereunder and the proceeds thereof, and when such
Mortgages are filed or recorded in the proper real estate filing or recording offices, the
Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) shall have a fully perfected first
priority Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in
such Mortgaged Property and, to the extent applicable, subject to Section 9-315 of the UCC, the
proceeds thereof, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person, other than with
respect to Prior Liens and Permitted Encumbrances.




          Section 3.17. Real Property. (a) Schedule 3.17 lists completely and correctly as of
the Closing Date each Real Property owned or leased by the Borrower and its Relevant Subsidiaries
and the address or location thereof, including the state in which such property is located.




          (b) Subject to Prior Liens and Permitted Encumbrances, the Pipeline Systems are covered by fee
deeds, rights of way, easements, leases, servitudes, permits, licenses, or other instruments
(collectively, “rights of way”) in favor of the applicable Loan Parties, recorded or filed, as
applicable and if and to the extent required in accordance with applicable law to be so recorded or
filed, in the real property records of the county where the real property covered thereby is
located or with the office of the applicable Railroad Commission or the applicable Department of
Transportation, except where the failure of the Pipeline Systems to be so covered, or any such
documentation to be so recorded or filed, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Subject to Prior Liens and Permitted Encumbrances and
except to the extent the failure would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, the rights of way granted to the Borrower or any other Loan Party that cover any Pipeline
Systems establish a continuous right of way for such Pipeline Systems such that the applicable Loan
Parties are able to construct, operate, and maintain the Pipeline Systems in, over, under, or
across the land covered thereby in the same way that a prudent owner and operator would construct,
operate, and maintain similar assets.







46









 








          (c) Subject to Prior Liens and Permitted Encumbrances, the Processing Plants are covered by
fee deeds, real property leases, or other instruments (collectively “deeds”) in favor of the Loan
Parties, except to the extent the failure to be so covered would not reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect. Subject to Prior Liens and Permitted Encumbrances and except to the
extent the failure would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the deeds do
not contain any restrictions that would prevent the Loan Parties from constructing, operating and
maintaining the Processing Plants in, over, under, and across the land covered thereby in the same
way that a prudent owner and operator would construct, operate, and maintain similar assets.




          (d) There is no (i) breach or event of default on the part of the Borrower or any other Loan
Party with respect to any right of way or deed granted to the Borrower or any other Loan Party that
covers any of the Processing Plants or Pipeline Systems, (ii) to the knowledge of any of the Loan
Parties, breach or event of default on the part of any other party to any right of way or deed
granted to the Borrower or any other Loan Party that covers any of the Processing Plants or
Pipeline Systems, and (iii) event that, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would
constitute such breach or event of default on the part of the Borrower or any other Loan Party with
respect to any right of way or deed granted to the Borrower or any other Loan Party that covers any
of the Processing Plants or Pipeline Systems or, to the knowledge of any of the Loan Parties, on
the part of any other party thereto, in the case of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, to the
extent any such breach, default or event, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The rights of way and deeds granted to the Borrower or
any other Loan Party that cover any of the Processing Plants or Pipeline Systems (to the extent
applicable) are in full force and effect in all material respects and are valid and enforceable
against the applicable Loan Party party thereto in accordance with their terms (subject to the
effect of any applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent transfer,
fraudulent conveyance or similar laws effecting creditors’ rights generally and subject, as to
enforceability to the effect of general principles of equity) and all rental and other payments due
thereunder by the applicable Loan Parties have been duly paid in accordance with the terms of the
deeds and rights of way (as such terms are defined in this Section 3.17) except, in each case, to
the extent that a failure, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.




          (e) The Pipeline Systems are located within the confines of the rights of way granted to the
Borrower or any other Loan Party and do not encroach upon any adjoining property, except to the
extent the failure to be so located or any such encroachment would not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. The Processing Plants are located within the boundaries of the
property affected by the deeds, leases or other instruments to the Borrower or the other Loan
Parties and do not encroach upon any adjoining property, except to the extent the failure to be so
located or any such encroachment would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. The buildings and improvements owned or leased by the Borrower and the other Loan Parties,
and the operation and maintenance thereof, do not (i) contravene any applicable zoning or building
law or ordinance or other administrative regulation or (ii) violate any applicable restrictive
covenant or any Governmental Rule, except to the extent the contravention or violation of which
would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.




          (f) The material properties used or to be used in the Loan Parties’ Midstream Activities are
in good repair, working order, and condition, normal wear and tear excepted, except to the extent
the failure would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the
properties of the Borrower nor of any of the other Loan Parties has been affected, since the
Closing Date, in any adverse manner as a result of any fire, explosion, earthquake, flood, drought,
windstorm, accident, strike or other labor disturbance, embargo, requisition or taking of Real
Property or cancellation of contracts, permits or concessions by a Governmental Authority, riot,
activities of armed forces or acts of God or of any public enemy that would reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.




          (g) No eminent domain proceeding or taking has been commenced or, to the knowledge of the
Borrower or its Relevant Subsidiaries, is contemplated with respect to all or any portion of the
Pipeline Systems or the Processing Plants except for that which, individually or in the aggregate,
would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.




          (h) Other than Mortgaged Property with respect to which the requirements of clause (h)(vii) of
the definition of Collateral and Guarantee requirement have been satisfied, no portion of any
Mortgaged Property is located in a special flood hazard area as designated by any Governmental
Authority.




          Section 3.18. Solvency. (a) Immediately after giving effect to the Transactions (i) the fair
value of the assets (for the avoidance of doubt, calculated to include goodwill and other
intangibles) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, at a fair valuation,
will exceed the debts and liabilities, direct, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis; (ii) the present fair saleable value of the
property of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
on a consolidated basis will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable
liability of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, on their debts and other
liabilities, direct, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities
become absolute and matured; (iii) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis will
be able to pay their debts and liabilities, direct, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such
debts and liabilities become absolute and matured; and (iv) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the businesses in
which they are engaged as such businesses are now conducted and are proposed to be conducted
following the Closing Date.







47









 








          (b) The Borrower does not intend to, and does not believe that it or any of its Subsidiaries
will, incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature, taking into account the
timing and amounts of cash to be received by it or any such Subsidiary and the timing and amounts
of cash to be payable on or in respect of its Indebtedness or the Indebtedness of any such
Subsidiary.




          Section 3.19. Labor Matters. There are no strikes pending or threatened against the Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. The hours worked and payments made to employees of the Borrower and
its Subsidiaries have not been in violation in any material respect of the Fair Labor Standards Act
or any other applicable law dealing with such matters. All material payments due from the Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries or for which any claim may be made against the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits have
been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of the Borrower or such Subsidiary to the extent
required by GAAP. Consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to a right of termination or
right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (or any predecessor) is a party or by which the Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries (or any predecessor) is bound, other than collective bargaining agreements
that, individually or in the aggregate, are not material to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries,
taken as a whole.




          Section 3.20. Insurance. Schedule 3.20 sets forth a true, complete and correct
description of all material insurance maintained by or on behalf of the Borrower and its Relevant
Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date. As of such date, such insurance is in full force and effect.
The Borrower believes that the insurance maintained by or on behalf of it and its Relevant
Subsidiaries is adequate.




          Section 3.21. Representations and Warranties in Acquisition Agreement. All representations and
warranties of each of the Loan Parties set forth in the Acquisition Agreement were true and correct
in all material respects as of the time such representations and warranties were made and, to the
extent required to be made on the Closing Date under the Acquisition Agreement, shall be true and
correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date as if such representations and warranties
were made on and as of such date, unless stated to relate to a specific earlier date, in which case
such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such
earlier date.




          Section 3.22. Status as Senior Debt; Perfection of Security Interests. The Obligations shall
rank pari passu with any other senior Indebtedness or securities of the Borrower and shall
constitute senior indebtedness of the Borrower and the Relevant Subsidiaries under and as defined
in any documentation documenting any junior indebtedness of the Borrower or the Relevant
Subsidiaries. Each Collateral Agreement delivered pursuant to Section 4.02 and 5.10 will, upon
execution and delivery thereof, be effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the
benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral
described therein and proceeds thereof. In the case of the Pledged Collateral described in the
Collateral Agreement, when stock certificates representing such Pledged Collateral are delivered to
the Collateral Agent, and in the case of the other Collateral described in the Collateral
Agreement, when financing statements and other filings specified therein in appropriate form are
filed in the offices specified therein, the Lien created by the Collateral Agreement shall
constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of
the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds thereof to the extent perfection can be
obtained by filing financing statements, making such other filings specified therein or by
possession, as security for the Obligations of such Loan Party, in each case prior and superior in
right to any other Person, subject, in the case of Collateral other than Pledged Collateral, to
Prior Liens, and in the case of Pledged Collateral, to Liens arising (and that have priority) by
operation of law.




          Section 3.23. Material Contracts. Other than as set forth on Schedule 3.23, as of the
Closing Date there are no contracts or agreements to which the Borrower or any of its Relevant
Subsidiaries is a party, that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect, or that, if terminated or if a default occurs thereunder,
individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Each Gathering and Processing Document is in full force and effect, except for such matters in
respect of such Gathering and Processing Documents that individually, or in the aggregate, would
not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.




ARTICLE IV

Loan, all Fees and all other expenses or amounts payable under any Loan Document shall have been
paid in full and all Revolving Letters of Credit have been canceled or have expired and all amounts
drawn thereunder have been reimbursed in full, unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise consent
in writing, the Borrower will, and will cause each of its Relevant Subsidiaries (and, to the extent
expressly set forth below, other applicable Subsidiaries) to:



          Section 5.01. Existence; Businesses and Properties. (a) Do or cause to be done all things
necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its legal existence, except as
otherwise expressly permitted under Section 6.05, and except for the liquidation or dissolution of
any such Subsidiary if the assets of such Subsidiary to the extent they exceed estimated

liquidation or dissolution; provided that Subsidiary Loan Parties may not be liquidated into
Subsidiaries that are not Loan Parties.




          (b) Do or cause to be done all things necessary to (i) in the Borrower’s reasonable business
judgment obtain, preserve, renew, extend and keep in full force and effect the permits, franchises,
authorizations, patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and rights
with respect thereto necessary to the normal conduct of its business, (ii) comply in all material
respects with all material applicable laws, rules, regulations (including any zoning, building,
ordinance, code or approval or any building permits or any restrictions of record or agreements
affecting the Mortgaged Properties) and judgments, writs, injunctions, decrees, permits, licenses
and orders of any Governmental Authority, whether now in effect or hereafter enacted and (iii) at
all times maintain and preserve all property necessary to the normal conduct of its business and
keep such property in good repair, working order and condition and from time to time make, or cause

properly conducted at all times (in each case except as expressly permitted by this Agreement); in
each case in this paragraph (b) except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.




          Section 5.02. Insurance. (a) Keep its insurable properties insured at all times by financially
sound and reputable insurers in such amounts as shall be customary for similar businesses and
maintain such other reasonable insurance (including, to the extent consistent with past practices,

companies in the same or similar businesses and maintain such other insurance as may be required by
law or any other Loan Document.




          (b) Cause all such property and casualty insurance policies with respect to the Mortgaged
Properties and personal property located in the United States to be endorsed or otherwise amended
to include a “standard” or “New York” lender’s loss payable endorsement, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, which endorsement
shall provide that, from and after the Closing Date, if the insurance carrier shall have received
written notice from the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent of the occurrence of an Event
of Default, the insurance carrier shall pay all proceeds otherwise payable to the Borrower or other
Loan Party under such policies directly to the Collateral Agent; cause all such policies to contain
a “Replacement Cost Endorsement,” without any deduction for depreciation, and such other provisions
as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may reasonably (in light of a Default or a
material development in respect of the insured property) require from time to time to protect their
interests; deliver original or certified copies of all such policies or a certificate of an
insurance broker to the Collateral Agent; cause each such policy to provide that it shall not be
canceled or not renewed upon less than 30 days’ prior written notice thereof by the insurer to the

to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent), or insurance certificate with respect
thereto, together with evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent
of payment of the premium therefor.




          (c) To the extent any Mortgaged Property is subject to the provisions of the Flood Insurance
Laws (as defined below), (i) (x) concurrently with the delivery of the mortgage in favor of the
Collateral Agent in connection therewith, and (y) at any other time if necessary for compliance
with applicable Flood Insurance Laws, provide the Collateral Agent with a standard flood hazard
determination form for such Mortgaged Property and (ii) if any such Mortgaged Property is located
in an area designated a “flood hazard area” in any Flood Insurance Rate Map published by the
Federal Emergency Management Agency (or any successor agency),






51

Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably require, and otherwise to ensure compliance with
the National Flood Insurance Program as set forth in the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as
it may be amended from time to time (the “Flood Insurance Laws”). In addition, to the extent the
Borrower and the Loan Parties fail to obtain or maintain satisfactory flood insurance required
pursuant to the preceding sentence with respect to any Mortgaged Property, the Collateral Agent
shall be permitted, in its sole discretion, to obtain forced placed insurance at the Borrower’s
expense to ensure compliance with any applicable Flood Insurance Laws.




          (d) With respect to each Mortgaged Property and any personal property located in the United
States, carry and maintain comprehensive general liability insurance including the “broad form CGL
endorsement” (or equivalent coverage) and coverage on an occurrence basis against claims made for
personal injury (including bodily injury, death and property damage) and umbrella liability
insurance against any and all claims, in each case in amounts and against such risks as are
customarily maintained by companies engaged in the same or similar industry operating in the same
or similar locations naming the Collateral Agent as an additional insured, on forms reasonably
satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.




          (e) Notify the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent promptly whenever any separate
insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required to be
maintained under this Section 5.02 is taken out by the Borrower or its Relevant Subsidiaries; and
promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent a duplicate original copy of
such policy or policies, or an insurance certificate with respect thereto.




          (f) In connection with the covenants set forth in this Section 5.02, it is understood and
agreed that:





     (i) none of the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or their respective agents or
employees shall be liable for any loss or damage insured by the insurance policies required to
be maintained under this Section 5.02, it being understood that (x) the Borrower and its
Relevant Subsidiaries shall look solely to their insurance companies or any parties other than
the aforesaid parties for the recovery of such loss or damage and (y) such insurance companies
shall have no rights of subrogation against the Agents, the Lenders, any Issuing Bank or their
agents or employees. If, however, the insurance policies do not provide waiver of subrogation
rights against such parties, as required above, then the Borrower hereby agrees, to the extent
permitted by law, to waive, and to cause each of its Relevant Subsidiaries to waive, its right
of recovery, if any, against the Agents, the Lenders, any Issuing Bank and their agents and
employees; and




     (ii) the designation of any form, type or amount of insurance coverage by the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders under this Section 5.02 shall in no
event be deemed a representation, warranty or advice by the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent or the Lenders that such insurance is adequate for the purposes of the
business of the Borrower or any of its Relevant Subsidiaries or the protection of their
properties.



          Section 5.03. Taxes; Payment of Obligations. Pay and discharge promptly when due all material
Taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its income or profits
or in respect of its property, before the same shall become delinquent or in default, as well as

to a Lien upon such properties or any part thereof; provided, however, that such payment and
discharge shall not be required with respect to any such Tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim to
the extent that (i) the validity or amount thereof shall be contested in good faith by appropriate
proceedings, and the Borrower or the affected Subsidiary of the Borrower, as applicable, shall have
set aside on its books reserves in accordance with GAAP with respect thereto or (ii) the aggregate
amount of such Taxes, assessments, charges, levies or claims does not exceed U.S.$2.5 million. Pay,
discharge or otherwise satisfy at or before maturity or before they become delinquent, as the case
may be, all its material obligations of whatever nature, except where the amount or validity
thereof is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and reserves in
conformity with GAAP with respect thereto have been provided on the books of the Borrower or the
affected Subsidiary of the Borrower or if the failure to pay, discharge or otherwise satisfy such
obligation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.




          Section 5.04. Financial Statements, Reports, Etc. Furnish to the Administrative Agent (which
will promptly furnish such information to the Lenders):

          (d) Each of UBS Securities LLC and The Royal Bank of Scotland PLC are hereby appointed to act
as a Co-Documentation Agent.




          (e) The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent, any appointees thereof, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and neither the
Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such
provisions.




          Section 8.02. Rights as a Lender. Any Person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same
rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender, and may exercise the same as
though it were not an Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly
indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include a Person serving as an Agent hereunder
in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to,
act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind
of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were
not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.




          Section 8.03. Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except
those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, no Agent:




          (a) shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default
or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;




          (b) shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers,
except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents
that such Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such
other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other
Loan Documents), provided that no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion
or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan
Document or applicable law;




          (c) shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty
to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the
Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as such
Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity;




          (d) shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the
request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances
as provided in Sections 9.08 and 7.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or
willful misconduct;




          (e) shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement,
warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
(ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or
in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants,
agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any
Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or
priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Security Documents, (v) the value or the
sufficiency of any Collateral, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or
elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such
Agent; and




67









 








          (f) shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until
notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to such Agent by the Borrower, a Lender
or an Issuing Bank.




          Section 8.04. Reliance by Agents. Any Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not
incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement,
instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet
website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent
or otherwise
authenticated by the proper Person. Any Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it
orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not
incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to
the making of a Loan or issuance of a Revolving Letter of Credit that by its terms must be
fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, any Agent may presume that such
condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Bank unless such Agent shall have received
notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or
issuance of a Revolving Letter of Credit, as applicable. Any Agent may consult with legal counsel
(who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it,
and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of
any such counsel, accountants or experts.




          Section 8.05. Delegation of Duties. Any Agent may perform any and all of its duties and
exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or
more sub-agents appointed by such Agent. Any Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all
of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties.
The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related
Parties of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in
connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities
as an Agent.




          Section 8.06. Resignation of the Agents. Any Agent may at any time give notice of its
resignation to the Lenders, Issuing Banks and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of
resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor with the consent of
the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), which shall be a financial institution
with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such financial institution with an
office in the United States. During an Agent Default Period, the Borrower and the Required Lenders
may remove the relevant Agent subject to the execution and delivery by the Borrower and the
Required Lenders of removal and liability release agreements reasonably satisfactory to the
relevant Agent, which removal shall be effective upon the acceptance of appointment by a successor
as such Agent. Upon any proposed removal of an Agent during an Agent Default Period, the Required
Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor with the consent of the Borrower (not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed), which shall be a financial institution with an office in the
United States, or an Affiliate of any such financial institution with an office in the United
States. In the case of the resignation of an Agent, if no such successor shall have been so
appointed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower and shall have accepted such appointment within
30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then such resignation shall
nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Agent shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except
that in the case of any collateral security held by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured
Parties under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such
collateral security, as bailee, until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed), (b)
all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the
Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender or Issuing Bank directly, until
such time as the Required Lenders and the Borrower appoint a successor Administrative Agent as
provided for above in this Section and (c) the Borrower and the Lenders agree that in no event
shall the retiring Agent or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors,
employees, agents advisors or representatives have any liability to the Loan Parties, any Lender or
any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation, direct or
indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort,
contract or otherwise) arising out of the failure of a successor Agent to be appointed and to
accept such appointment. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such
successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties
of the retiring (or retired) or removed Agent, and the retiring or removed Agent shall be
discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (if
not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the
Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless
otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation or
removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article (including
Section 8.12) and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed
Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Agent was acting as Agent.




          Section 8.07. Non-Reliance on the Agents, Other Lenders and Other Issuing Banks. Each Lender
and each Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent
or any other Lender or Issuing Bank or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into
this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and
without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or Issuing Bank or any of their Related Parties
and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate,
continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or
thereunder.




68









 








          Section 8.08. No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of
the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Syndication Agent or the Co-Documentation Agents shall have any
powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except
in its capacity, as applicable, as an Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank hereunder.




          Section 8.09. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any
proceeding under any federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law
or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective
of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed
or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have
made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such
proceeding or otherwise:




          (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and
unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such
other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the
Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent
and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Banks
and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.12, 8.12, and 9.05) allowed in such judicial
proceeding; and




          (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such
claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator,
sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each
Lender and each Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the
Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the
Issuing Banks, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and
any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.12, 8.12, and 9.05.




          Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or
consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or any Issuing Bank any plan of
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of
any Lender or any Issuing Bank to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the
claim of any Lender or any Issuing Bank in any such proceeding.




          Section 8.10. Collateral and Guaranty Matters. Each of the Lenders (including in its
capacities as a potential Cash Management Bank and a potential Specified Swap Counterparty) and
each of the Issuing Banks irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent
to release guarantees, Liens and security interests created by the Loan Documents in accordance
with the provisions of Section 9.18. Upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral
Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing such Agent’s authority provided for
in the previous sentence.




          Section 8.11. Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Swap Agreements. No Cash
Management Bank or Specified Swap Counterparty that obtains the benefits of the Security Documents
or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of the Security Documents 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 the Collateral (including the release or
impairment of any Collateral) 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 VIII 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, Obligations arising
under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Swap Agreements unless the Administrative
Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation
as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Specified Swap
Counterparty, as the case may be.




          Section 8.12. Indemnification. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees (i) to reimburse the
Administrative Agent, on demand, in the amount of its pro rata share (based on its Commitments
hereunder (or if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the
respective principal amounts of its applicable outstanding Loans) or portion of outstanding
Revolving L/C Disbursements owed to it, as applicable) of any reasonable expenses incurred for the
benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks by the Administrative Agent, including reasonable
counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the
Lenders and the Issuing Banks, which shall not have been reimbursed by the Borrower and (ii) to
indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and any of its directors, officers, employees
or agents, on demand, in the amount of such pro rata share, from and against any and all
liabilities, Taxes, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or
asserted against it in its capacity as Administrative Agent or any of them in any way relating to
or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by it or
any of them under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, to the extent the same shall not have
been reimbursed by the Borrower, provided that no Lender or Issuing Bank shall be liable to the
Administrative Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent found in a final
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from the
gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or any of its directors,
officers, employees or agents.





69









 








          Section 8.13. Appointment of Supplemental Collateral Agents. (a) It is the purpose of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be no violation of any law of any
jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations or other
institutions to transact business as agent or trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that
in case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and in particular in
case of the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in case the Collateral Agent deems that by
reason of any present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the rights,
powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or take any other action
which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, it may be necessary that the
Collateral Agent appoint an additional institution as a separate trustee,
co-trustee, collateral agent, collateral sub-agent or collateral co-agent (any such additional
individual or institution being referred to herein individually as a “Supplemental Collateral
Agent” and collectively as “Supplemental Collateral Agents”).




          (b) In the event that the Collateral Agent appoints a Supplemental Collateral Agent with
respect to any Collateral, (i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended
by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to
the Collateral Agent with respect to such Collateral shall be exercisable by and vest in such
Supplemental Collateral Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such
Supplemental Collateral Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges with respect to such
Collateral and to perform such duties with respect to such Collateral, and every covenant and
obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by
such Supplemental Collateral Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either the Collateral Agent
or such Supplemental Collateral Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this Article and of Section 9.05
that refer to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Agents shall inure to the
benefit of such Supplemental Collateral Agent and all references therein to the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Agents shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Agents and/or such Supplemental Collateral Agent, as the context
may require.




          (c) Should any instrument in writing from any Loan Party be required by any Supplemental
Collateral Agent so appointed by the Collateral Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in and
confirming to it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, such Loan Party shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Collateral Agent.
In case any Supplemental Collateral Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of
acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental
Collateral Agent, to the extent permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Collateral
Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Collateral Agent.




          Section 8.14. Withholding. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative
Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender or Issuing Bank an amount equivalent to any
applicable withholding Tax. If any payment has been made to any Lender or Issuing Bank by the
Administrative Agent without the applicable withholding Tax being withheld from such payment and
the Administrative Agent has paid over the applicable withholding Tax to the Internal Revenue
Service or any other Governmental Authority, or the Internal Revenue Service or any other
Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax
from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender or Issuing Bank because the appropriate form
was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender or Issuing Bank failed to
notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or
reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender or Issuing Bank
shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the
Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all
expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.




          Section 8.15. Enforcement. 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 or the Collateral Agent in accordance with
Section 7.01 and the Security Documents for the benefit of all the Lenders and the Issuing Banks or
Secured Parties, as applicable; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and
remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent or Collateral
Agent, as applicable) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any Lender or Issuing Bank
from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.06 (subject to the terms of Section
2.18(c)), or (c) any Lender or Issuing Bank 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 federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law; and provided,
further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as the Administrative Agent or the
Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the
Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent or the
Collateral Agent, as applicable, pursuant to Section 7.01 and the Security Documents, as applicable
and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b) and (c) of the preceding proviso and
subject to Section 2.18(c), any Lender or Issuing Bank may, with the consent of the Required
Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

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





     (A) the Borrower; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an
assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or, if an Event of
Default pursuant to Section 7.01(b), 7.01(c), 7.01(h) or 7.01(i) has occurred and is
continuing, any other assignee (provided that any liability of the Borrower to an assignee
that is an Approved Fund or Affiliate of the assigning Lender under Section 2.15 or 2.17
shall be limited to the amount, if any, that would have been payable hereunder by the
Borrower in the absence of such assignment); and provided further that so long as no Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may withhold its consent if the
costs or the taxes payable by the Borrower to the assignee under Section 2.15 or 2.17
shall be greater than they would have been to assignor;




     (B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent
shall be required for an assignment of an Incremental Term Loan to a Person that is a
Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or Approved Fund immediately prior to giving effect to
such assignment;




     (C) in the case of any assignment of any Revolving Facility Commitment, each Issuing
Lender; and




     (D) in the case of any assignment of any Revolving Facility Commitment, each
Swingline Lender.




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




     (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an
Approved Fund, an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s
Commitment or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least
U.S. $2.5 million in the aggregate, the amount of the Commitment and/or Loans, as
applicable, of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the
date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the
Administrative Agent) shall not be less than U.S. $5.0 million and increments of U.S. $1.0
million in excess thereof unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise
consent; provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of
Default under paragraph (b), (c), (h) or (i) of Section 7.01 has occurred and is
continuing;




     (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of
all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of a given Facility under

Agent an Assignment and Acceptance;




     (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and any other administrative information that the

Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.




     (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this
Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the
assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such
Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement,
and the assigning Lender hereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such
Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Acceptance 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 Section 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.05). Any assignment
or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with
this Section 9.04 shall not be effective as an assignment hereunder.




     (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall
maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a
register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of,
and principal amount of the Loans and Revolving L/C Disbursements owing to, each Lender
pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register
shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Agents, each Issuing Bank 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, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.
The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Issuing Bank and any
Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.



72









 






     (v) The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a
processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that
the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and
recordation fee in the case of any assignment. Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment
and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, any administrative information
reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender
hereunder), any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section,
and the processing and recordation fee referred to above (unless waived as set forth above),
the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information
contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this
Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.



          (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any
Issuing Bank, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all
or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a
portion of its Commitment and the Loans and Revolving L/C Disbursements owing to it); provided that
(A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall
remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C)
the Borrower, the Agents, each Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and
directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement and (D) such Lender shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of
each Participant and the principal amounts of each Participant’s interest in the Loans (or other
rights or obligations) held by it, which entries shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Any
agreement or instrument (oral or written) pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation
shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to exercise rights under and to enforce
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of
any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that (x) such agreement or
instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to
any amendment, modification or waiver described in Section 9.04(a)(i) or clause (i) through (vii)
of the first proviso to Section 9.08(b) that affects such Participant and (y) no other agreement
(oral or written) in respect of the foregoing with respect to such Participant may exist between
such Lender and such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees
that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits (and subject to the requirements and
limitations) of Section 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were the Lender from whom
it obtained its participation and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b)
of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the
benefits of Section 9.06 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject
to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender.





     (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section
2.15, 2.16 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect
to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such
Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) and the Borrower may withhold its consent if a Participant would be
entitled to require greater payment than the applicable Lender under such Sections. A
Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the
benefits of Section 2.17 to the extent such Participant fails to comply with Section 2.17(e) as
though it were a Lender.



          (d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of
its rights under this Agreement and its promissory note, if any, to secure obligations of such
Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and
this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that
no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its
obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto,
and any such pledgee (other than a pledgee that is the Federal Reserve Bank) shall acknowledge in
writing that its rights under such pledge are in all respects subject to the limitations applicable
to the pledging Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.




          Section 9.05. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable and
documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers and their
respective Affiliates in connection with the preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, or by the Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates in connection
with the syndication of the Commitments or the administration of this Agreement (including expenses
incurred in connection with due diligence and initial and ongoing Collateral examination to the
extent incurred with the reasonable prior approval of the Borrower and the reasonable fees,
disbursements and charges for no more than one counsel in each jurisdiction where Collateral is
located) or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or
thereof (whether or not the Transactions hereby contemplated shall be consummated) or incurred by
the Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates or any Lender in connection
with the enforcement or protection of their rights in connection with this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, in connection with the Loans made or the Letters of Credit issued hereunder,
including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Latham & Watkins LLP, special New York
counsel for the Agents and the Joint Lead Arrangers, and, in connection with any such enforcement
or protection, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any other counsel (including the
reasonable and documented allocated costs of internal counsel for the Agents, the Joint Lead
Arrangers, any Issuing Bank or any Lender); provided, that, absent any conflict of interest, the
Agents and the Joint Lead Arrangers shall not be entitled to indemnification for the fees, charges
or disbursements of more than one counsel in each jurisdiction.







73









 








          (b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Syndication
Agents, the Co-Documentation Agents, each Issuing Bank, each Lender and each Related Party of any
of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each
Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses,
including reasonable and documented counsel fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or
asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i)
the execution or delivery of the Commitment Letter, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto
and thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and
the other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or
the use of any Revolving Letter of Credit or (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or
proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or any
Indemnitee initiated or is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any
Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related
expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross
negligence, bad faith, material breach of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or willful
misconduct of such Indemnitee (treating, for this purpose only, any Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger,
any Issuing Bank, any Lender and any of their respective Related Parties as a single Indemnitee).
Subject to and without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the Borrower agrees to
indemnify each Indemnitee against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable and documented counsel or
consultant fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising
out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (A) any Environmental Event or Environmental
Claim related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (B) any actual or alleged
presence, Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials at, under, on or from any Real
Property currently or formerly owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
or by any predecessor of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any property at which the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has sent Hazardous Materials for treatment, storage or
disposal, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent
that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith, material breach of
this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its
Related Parties or would have arisen as against the Indemnitee regardless of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document or any Borrowings hereunder. In no event shall any Indemnitee be liable to any
Loan Party for any consequential, indirect, special or punitive damages. No Indemnitee shall be
liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other
materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications,
electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual
damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined


by a court of competent jurisdiction. The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall remain operative
and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the
invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of the Commitment Letter, this Agreement or
any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Agent, any Issuing Bank,
any Joint Lead Arranger or any Lender. All amounts due under this Section 9.05 shall be payable on
written demand therefor accompanied by reasonable documentation with respect to any reimbursement,
indemnification or other amount requested.




          (c) This Section 9.05 shall not apply to Taxes.




          Section 9.06. Right of Set-off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
each Lender and each Issuing Bank is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special,
time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by
such Lender or such Issuing Bank to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party or any other
Subsidiary that is not a Foreign Subsidiary, against any and all obligations of the Loan Parties,
now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document held by such Lender or
such Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall have made
any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although the obligations may be
unmatured. The rights of each Lender and each Issuing Bank under this Section 9.06 are in addition
to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender or such Issuing
Bank may have.




          Section 9.07. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN LETTERS
OF CREDIT AND AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.




          Section 9.08. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the Agents, any Issuing Bank or
any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any Loan Document shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any
abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of
the Agents, each Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are
cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No
waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by
the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same
shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below,




74









 







and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only
in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or
demand on the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any case shall entitle such Person to any
other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.




          (b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may
be waived, amended or modified except (x) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement
or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders (or the
Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) and (y) in the case of any other
Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each party thereto
and the Collateral Agent and consented to by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no such
agreement shall





     (i) decrease or forgive the principal amount of, or extend the final maturity of, or
decrease the rate of interest on, any Loan or any Revolving L/C Disbursement, without the prior
written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided that any amendment to the
financial covenant definitions in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate
of interest for purposes of this clause (i);




     (ii) increase or extend the Commitment of any Lender or decrease the Commitment Fees or
Revolving L/C Participation Fees or other fees payable to any Lender without the prior written
consent of such Lender (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions
precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Defaults shall not constitute an increase in the
Commitments of any Lender),




     (iii) extend any date on which any scheduled amortization payment in respect of any
Incremental Term Loan or payment of interest on any Loan, Revolving L/C Disbursement or any
Fees is due or reduce the amount of any scheduled amortization payment due with respect to any
Incremental Term Loan on the date due, without the prior written consent of each Lender
adversely affected thereby,




     (iv) amend or modify the provisions of Section 2.18(b) or (c) in a manner that would by
its terms alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the prior written
consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby,




     (v) extend the stated expiration date of any Revolving Letter of Credit beyond the
Revolving Maturity Date, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly affected
thereby,




     (vi) amend or modify the provisions of this Section or the definition of the terms
“Required Lenders”, “Majority Lenders”, or any other provision hereof specifying the number or
percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any
determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the prior written consent of each Lender
adversely affected thereby (it being understood that, with the consent of the Required Lenders,
additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination
of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Loans and Commitments are
included on the Closing Date), and




     (vii) release all or substantially all the Collateral or release all or substantially all
of the value of the Guarantees of the Subsidiary Loan Parties without the prior written consent
of each Lender and Issuing Bank;



     provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or
duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, an Issuing Bank or a Swingline Lender
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of such
Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as applicable. Each
Lender shall be bound by any waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this Section 9.08 and
any consent by any Lender pursuant to this Section 9.08 shall bind any assignee of such Lender,



          (c) Without the consent of any Lender or Issuing Bank, the Loan Parties and the Administrative
Agent and/or Collateral Agent may (in their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent
required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment, modification or waiver of any Loan
Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection,
protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional
property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or as required by local law
to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any
property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable law.




          (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated)
with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent, and the Borrower (i) to
add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of
credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect
thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the
Incremental Term Loans and the Revolving Facility Loans and the accrued interest and fees in
respect thereof and (ii) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any
determination of the Required Lenders.




          (e) In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written
consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant
Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Incremental
Term Loans (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement “B” term loan tranche hereunder which shall
be Loans hereunder (“Replacement Term Loans”); provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of
such




75









 







Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term
Loans, (ii) the Applicable Margin for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the
Applicable Margin for such Refinanced Term Loans, (iii) the weighted
average life to maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted
average life to maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing and (iv) all
other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less
favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such
Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms
applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of the Loans in effect immediately prior
to such refinancing.




          (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) technical and conforming modifications to the Loan
Documents may be made with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to the extent
necessary to integrate any Incremental Commitments on the terms and conditions provided for in
Section 2.20 and (ii) any Loan Document may be amended, modified, supplemented or waived with the
written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent
of any Lender if such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver is executed and delivered in
order to cure an ambiguity, omission, mistake or defect in such Loan Document; provided that in
connection with this clause (ii), in no event will the Administrative Agent be required to
substitute its judgment for the judgment of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, and the
Administrative Agent may in all circumstances seek the approval of the Required Lenders, the
affected Lenders or all Lenders in connection with any such amendment, modification, supplement or
waiver.




          Section 9.09. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at
any time the applicable interest rate, together with all fees and charges that are treated as
interest under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), as provided for herein or in any other
document executed in connection herewith, or otherwise contracted for, charged, received, taken or
reserved by any Lender or any Issuing Bank, shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum
Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by such Lender in
accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable hereunder, together with all Charges
payable to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate, provided that
such excess amount shall be paid to such Lender or such Issuing Bank on subsequent payment dates to
the extent not exceeding the legal limitation.




          Section 9.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the agreements
regarding certain Fees referred to herein constitute the entire contract between the parties
relative to the subject matter hereof. Any previous agreement among or representations from the
parties or their Affiliates with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Fee Letter shall survive
the execution and delivery of this Agreement and remain in full force and effect. Nothing in this
Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any
party other than the parties hereto and thereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities
under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.




          Section 9.11. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (i) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF
ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE
EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (ii) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE
OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS,
AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11.




          Section 9.12. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and
therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavour in
good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid
provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal
or unenforceable provisions.




          Section 9.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each
of which shall constitute an original but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but
one contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 9.03. Delivery of an executed
counterpart to this Agreement by facsimile transmission or an electronic transmission of a PDF copy
thereof shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed original. Any such delivery shall be
followed promptly by delivery of the manually signed original.




          Section 9.14. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are
for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the
construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.




76









 








          Section 9.15. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) Each of the Borrower, the
Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself
and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the
United States of America sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, in
any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding
may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such
federal court. The Borrower further irrevocably consents to the service of process in any action or
proceeding in such courts by the mailing thereof by any parties thereto by registered or certified
mail, postage prepaid, to the Borrower at the address specified for the Loan Parties in Section
9.01. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding
shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any
other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement (other than Section 8.09) shall affect any
right that any Lender or any Issuing Bank may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding
relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents against the Borrower or any Loan Party or
their properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.




          (b) Each of the Borrower, the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection
which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or federal
court sitting in New York County. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such
action or proceeding in any such court.




          Section 9.16. Confidentiality. Each of the Lenders, each Issuing Bank and each of the Agents
agrees that it shall maintain in confidence any information relating to the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates furnished to it by or on behalf of the Borrower or the
other Loan Parties or such Subsidiary or Affiliate (other than information that (x) has become
generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by such party in breach of
this Agreement, (y) has been independently developed by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such
Agent without violating this Section 9.16 or (z) was available to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or
such Agent from a third party having, to such Person’s actual knowledge, no obligations of
confidentiality to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any such Affiliate) and shall not
reveal the same other than to its directors, trustees, officers, employees, agents and advisors
with a need to know or to any Person that approves or administers the Loans on behalf of such
Lender or Issuing Bank (so long as each such Person shall have been instructed to keep the same
confidential in accordance with this Section 9.16), except: (i) to the extent necessary to comply
with law or any legal process or the regulatory or supervisory requirements of any Governmental
Authority (including bank examiners), the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or of any
securities exchange on which securities of the disclosing party or any Affiliate of the disclosing
party are listed or traded, (ii) as part of reporting or review procedures to Governmental
Authorities (including bank examiners) or the National Association of Insurance Commissioners,
(iii) to its parent companies, Affiliates or auditors (so long as each such Person shall have been
instructed to keep the same confidential in accordance with this Section 9.16), (iv) in connection
with the exercise of any remedies under any Loan Document or in order to enforce its rights under
any Loan Document in a legal proceeding, (v) to any prospective assignee of, or prospective
Participant in, any of its rights under this Agreement (so long as such Person shall have been
instructed to keep the same confidential in accordance with this Section 9.16 or on terms at least
as restrictive as those set forth in this Section 9.16) and (vi) to any direct or indirect
contractual counterparty in Swap Agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor
(so long as each such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section
9.16 or on terms at least as restrictive as those set forth in Section 9.16 and each such
professional advisor shall have been instructed to keep the same confidential in accordance with
this Section 9.16). If a Lender, an Issuing Bank or an Agent is requested or required to disclose
any such information (other than to its bank examiners and similar regulators, or to internal or
external auditors) pursuant to or as required by law or legal process or subpoena to the extent
reasonably practicable, it shall give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower so that the Borrower
may seek an appropriate protective order and such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent will cooperate with
the Borrower (or the applicable Subsidiary or Affiliate) in seeking such protective order.




          Section 9.17. Communications. (a) Delivery. (i) Each Loan Party hereby agrees that it will use
all reasonable efforts to provide to the Administrative Agent all information, documents and other
materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement
and any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, all notices, requests, financial
statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but
excluding any such communication that (A) relates to a request for a new, or a conversion of an
existing, borrowing or other extension of credit (including any election of an interest rate or
interest period relating thereto), (B) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due
under this Agreement prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the scheduled date therefor, (C)
provides notice of any Default or Event of Default under this Agreement or (D) is required to be
delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or any
borrowing or other extension of credit hereunder (all such non-excluded communications
collectively, the “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft
medium in a format reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent at the address referenced in
Section 9.01(a)(ii). Nothing in this Section 9.17 shall prejudice the right of the Agents, the
Syndication Agent, the Co-Documentation Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers or any Lender or Issuing
Bank or any Loan Party to give any notice or other communication pursuant to this Agreement or any
other Loan Document in any other manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document.





77









 









     (ii) Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying
that the Communications have been posted to the Platform (as defined below) shall constitute
effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents.
Each Lender agrees (A) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic
communication) from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing
notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (B) that the foregoing notice may be sent to
such e-mail address.



          (b) Posting. Each Loan Party further agrees that the Administrative Agent may make the
Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on Intralinks or a
substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”). The Borrower hereby
acknowledges that (i) the Administrative Agent and/or the Joint Lead Arrangers will make available
to the Lenders materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder
(collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on the Platform and (ii)
certain of the Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive
material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its Affiliates, or the respective
securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related
activities with respect to such Persons’ securities. The Borrower hereby agrees that it will use
commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Borrower Materials that may be
distributed to the Public Lenders and that (w) all such Borrower Materials shall be clearly and
conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear
prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrower
shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Issuing
Banks and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public
information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Borrower or its
Affiliates or their respective securities for purposes of United States Federal and state
securities laws; (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available
through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information;” and (z) the Administrative
Agent and the Joint Lead Arranger shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not
marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated
“Public Side Information.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be under any
obligation to mark any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC” to the extent the Borrower determines that such
Borrower Materials contain material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its
Affiliates or their respective securities for purposes of United States Federal and state
securities laws.




          (c) Platform. The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agent Parties (as
defined below) do not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Communications, or the adequacy
of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No
warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of
merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or
freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the
Communications or the Platform. In no event shall the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or
any of its or their affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents
advisors or representatives (collectively, “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Loan Parties,
any Lender or Issuing Bank or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including,
without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or
expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Loan Party’s or the
Administrative Agent’s or the Collateral Agent’s transmission of communications through the
internet, except to the extent the liability of any Agent Party is found in a final non-appealable
judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Agent Party’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct.




          Section 9.18. Release of Liens and Guarantees. In the event that any Loan Party conveys,
sells, leases, assigns, transfers or otherwise disposes of all or any portion of its assets
(including the Equity Interests of any of its Subsidiaries) to a Person that is not (and is not
required to become) a Loan Party in a transaction not prohibited by the Loan Documents, the
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall promptly (and the Lenders hereby authorize the
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to) take such action and execute any such documents
as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower and at the Borrower’s expense to release any Liens
created by any Loan Document in respect of such Equity Interests or assets that are the subject of
such disposition and to release any guarantees of the Obligations, and any Liens granted to secure
the Obligations, in each case by a Person that ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower as a
result of a transaction described above. Any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any
Loan Document relating to any such Equity Interests or assets shall no longer be deemed to be made
once such Equity Interests or assets are so conveyed, sold, leased, assigned, transferred or
disposed of. The Security Documents, the guarantees made therein, the Security Interest (as defined
therein) and all other security interests granted thereby shall terminate, and each Loan Party
shall automatically be released from its obligations thereunder and the security interests in the
Collateral granted by any Loan Party shall be automatically released, when all the Obligations are
paid in full in cash and Commitments are terminated (other than (A) contingent indemnification
obligations, (B) obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured
Swap Agreements and (C) obligations and liabilities under Revolving Letters of Credit as to which
arrangements satisfactory to the Issuing Banks shall have been made). At such time, the
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent agree to take such actions as are reasonably
requested by the Borrower at the Borrower’s expense to evidence and effectuate such termination and
release of the guarantees, Liens and security interests created by the Loan Documents.

          Section 9.19. U.S.A. PATRIOT Act and Similar Legislation. Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby
notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements of the U.S.A. PATRIOT Act and similar
legislation, as applicable, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies
the Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other
information that will allow the Lenders to identify such Loan Party in accordance with such
legislation. Each Loan Party
agrees to furnish such information promptly upon request of a Lender. Each Lender shall be
responsible for satisfying its own requirements in respect of obtaining all such information.




          Section 9.20. Judgment. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary
to convert a sum due hereunder in one currency into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to
the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at
which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the
first mentioned currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s principal office in
New York, New York on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.




          Section 9.21. Pledge and Guarantee Restrictions. Notwithstanding any provision of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary (including any provision that would otherwise
apply notwithstanding other provisions or that is the beneficiary of other overriding language):




          (a) (i) no more than 65% of the issued and outstanding voting Equity Interests of (x) any
Foreign Subsidiary of the Borrower or (y) any Subsidiary of the Borrower, substantially all of
which Subsidiary’s assets consist of the Equity Interests in “controlled foreign corporations”
under Section 957 of the Code, shall be pledged or similarly hypothecated to guarantee, secure or
support any Obligation of any Loan Party; and





     (ii) no Foreign Subsidiary shall guarantee or support any Obligation of the Borrower; and




     (iii) any guarantee provided by any Domestic Subsidiary of the Borrower, substantially all
of whose assets consist of the Equity Interests in “controlled foreign corporations” under
Section 957 of the Code shall be without recourse to the 35% of the issued and outstanding
voting Equity Interests held by such Domestic Subsidiary in Foreign Subsidiaries which,
pursuant to clause (a)(i) above, are not required to be pledged by such Domestic Subsidiary;
and



          (b) no Subsidiary shall guarantee or support any Obligation of any Loan Party if and to the
extent that such guarantee or support would contravene the Agreed Security Principles.




     The parties hereto agree that any pledge, guaranty or security or similar interest made or
granted in contravention of this Section 9.21 shall be void ab initio, but only to the extent of
such contravention.



          Section 9.22. No Fiduciary Duty. Each Agent, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their
respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may
have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties. The
Borrower hereby agrees that subject to applicable law, nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise
will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other
implied duty between the Lenders and the Loan Parties, their equityholders or their Affiliates. The
Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan
Documents are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the
Loan Parties, on the other, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such
transaction none of the Lenders is acting as the agent or fiduciary of any Loan Party, its
management, equityholders, creditors or any other person, (iii) no Lender has assumed an advisory
or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Loan Party with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender or any of
its Affiliates has advised or is currently advising such Loan Party on other matters) or any other
obligation to any Loan Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, (iv)
the Borrower and each other Loan Party has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the
extent it has deemed appropriate and (v) the Lenders may be engaged in a broad range of
transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates and
no Lender has an obligation to disclose any such interests to the Borrower or its Affiliates. The
Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that it is responsible for making its own independent
judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto.




          Section 9.23. Application of Funds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section
7.01 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable), any amounts
received by the Administrative Agent from the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 5.02 of
the Collateral Agreement and any other amounts received by the Administrative Agent on account of
the Loan Document Obligations shall be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order:




          (a) First, to payment of that portion of the Loan Document Obligations constituting
fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel
to the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent) payable to the
Joint Lead Arrangers, the Syndication Agent, the Co-Documentation Agent, the Administrative Agent
and the Collateral Agent in their respective capacities as such;






79









 








          (b) Second, to payment of that portion of the Loan Document Obligations constituting
fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Revolving L/C Participation
Fees) payable to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank (including fees, charges and disbursements of
counsel to the respective Lenders and the Issuing Bank) arising under the Loan Documents, ratably
among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable
to them;




          (c) Third, to payment of that portion of the Loan Document Obligations constituting
accrued and unpaid Revolving L/C Participation Fees and interest on the Loans, Revolving L/C
Exposure and other Obligations arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among the Lenders and the
Issuing Bank in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable
to them;




          (d) Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Loan Document Obligations constituting
unpaid principal of the Loans and Revolving L/C Reimbursement Obligations, ratably among the
Lenders and the Issuing Bank in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause
Fourth held by them;




          (e) Fifth, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank, to cash
collateralize that portion of Revolving L/C Exposure comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of
Revolving Letters of Credit; and




          (f) Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Loan Document Obligations have been
indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Law.



Subject to Section 2.05(j), amounts used to cash collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount
of Revolving Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fifth above shall be applied to satisfy
drawings under such Revolving Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as
cash collateral after all Revolving Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such
remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above.

ARTICLE 2

Guarantee




     Section 2.01 Guarantee. Each Guarantor absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally
guarantees, jointly with the other Guarantors and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as
a surety, the due and punctual payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. Each Guarantor
further agrees that the Secured Obligations may be extended, modified, substituted, amended or
renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it (except in cases where
the Guarantor is a party to the agreement giving rise to the Secured Obligation being extended,
modified, substituted, amended or renewed and such notice or assent is required by such agreement),
and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any extension, modification,
substitution, amendment or renewal of any Secured Obligation. Each Guarantor unconditionally and
irrevocably waives notice of nonperformance, acceleration, presentment to, demand of payment from
and protest to the Borrower or any other Loan Party of any of the Secured Obligations, and also
waives notice of acceptance of or reliance on its guarantee and notice of protest for nonpayment.
For the avoidance of doubt, any Subsidiary of the Borrower that is not organized under the laws of
the United States and that is a “controlled foreign corporation” under Section 957 of the Code
shall not guarantee or support any Obligation of the Borrower.



     Section 2.02 Guarantee of Payment. Each Guarantor further agrees that its guarantee hereunder
constitutes a guarantee of payment when due, whether at scheduled maturity or on any date of a
required prepayment or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, and not of collection, and waives any
right to require that any resort be had by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to any
security held for the payment of the Secured Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account
or credit on the books of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party in favor of the Borrower
or any other Person.



     Section 2.03 No Limitations, etc. (a) Except for termination of a Guarantor’s obligations
hereunder as expressly provided for in Section 7.14, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder
shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason,
including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be
subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of
the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Secured Obligations or otherwise. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be
discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by:




     (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured
Party to assert any claim or demand or to exercise or enforce any right or remedy under the
provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise;




     (ii) the creation of any Secured Obligation and any rescission, waiver, amendment,
restatement, supplement or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or
provisions of, any Loan Document, any Secured Swap Agreement, any Secured Cash Management
Agreement or any other agreement, including with respect to (x) any of the foregoing that
extends the maturity of, or increases the amount of, any Secured Obligations and (y) any

     (iii) the failure to perfect any security interest in, or the exchange, substitution,
release or any impairment of, any Collateral or any other collateral securing the Secured
Obligations;

     (iv) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the
Secured Obligations;




     (v) any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the
risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of
law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Secured
Obligations);




     (vi) any illegality, lack of validity or enforceability of any Secured Obligation;




     (vii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Borrower or
any other Loan Party, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar
proceeding affecting the Borrower or any other Loan Party or the Borrower’s or any other
Loan Party’s assets or any resulting release or discharge of any Secured Obligation;




     (viii) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights that the Guarantor may have
at any time against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, the Collateral Agent, or any other
Person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing
herein will prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory
counterclaim; or




     (ix) any other circumstance (including without limitation, the expiration of any
statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the
Collateral Agent or any other Person that might otherwise constitute a defense to, or a
legal or equitable discharge of, the Borrower or any other Guarantor (including such
Guarantor) or any other guarantor or surety.



Each Guarantor expressly authorizes the Secured Parties to take and hold security for the payment
and performance of the Secured Obligations, to exchange, waive or release any or all such security
(with or without consideration), to enforce or apply such security and direct the order and manner
of any sale thereof, subject to the terms hereof, in their sole discretion and to release or
substitute any one or more other guarantors or obligors upon or in respect of the Secured
Obligations, all without affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder. Each Guarantor
acknowledges that its guarantee is continuing in nature and applies to all Secured Obligations,
whether existing now or in the future. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive
substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Loan
Documents, the Secured Swap Agreements and the Secured Cash Management Agreements and that the
waivers set forth in this Article 2 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.




     (b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense based
on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or the unenforceability of
the Secured Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the
liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, other than the indefeasible payment in full in
cash of all the Secured Obligations. The Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties may, at
their election, foreclose on any security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or
nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or
adjust any part of the Secured Obligations, make any other accommodation with the Borrower or any
other Loan Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against the Borrower or
any other Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor
hereunder except to the extent the Secured Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid in
full in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense
arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to
impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or

subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Loan
Party, as the case may be, or any security.




     Section 2.04 Reinstatement. Each Guarantor agrees that its guarantee hereunder shall continue
to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof,
of any Secured Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent or
any other Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower, any other Loan Party
or otherwise.



     Section 2.05 Agreement to Pay; Subrogation. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in
limitation of any other right that the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has at law or in
equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Borrower or any other Loan
Party to pay any Secured Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by
acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will
forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Collateral Agent for distribution to the applicable
Secured Parties in cash the amount of such unpaid Secured Obligation. Upon payment by any Guarantor
of any sums to the Collateral Agent as provided above, all rights of such Guarantor against the
Borrower or any other Loan Party or any other Guarantor arising as a result thereof by way of right
of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be
subject to Article 6.



     Section 2.06 Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping
itself informed of the financial condition and assets of the Borrower and each other Loan Party,
and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Secured Obligations and
the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and
agrees that none of the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties will have any duty to advise
such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks.



     Section 2.07 Reliance; Demands. The Secured Obligations, and each of them, shall conclusively
be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in
reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Article 2. All dealings between the Borrower and any
of the other Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Secured Parties, on the other hand, likewise
shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee
contained in this Article 2. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and
remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, any Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation
to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against
the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or
guarantee for the Secured Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure
by any Secured Party to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect
any payments from the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any
such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of
the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee
or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and
shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a
matter of law, of any Secured Party against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall
include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.



     Section 2.08 Maximum Liability. Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary
notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor in its capacity as such hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such
Guarantor under applicable federal and state laws relating to the insolvency of debtors (after
giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 6.02).

     Section 2.09 Payments Free and Clear of Taxes, etc. Any and all payments made by any
Guarantor under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made in
accordance with Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement.



ARTICLE 3

Pledge of Securities




     Section 3.01 Pledge. As security for the payment or performance, as the case may be, in full
of the Secured Obligations, each Grantor hereby assigns and pledges to the Collateral Agent, its
successors and assigns, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and hereby grants to the
Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a
security interest in all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in, to and under and whether
now or hereafter existing or arising (a) all Equity Interests directly owned by it as of the
Closing Date and any other Equity Interests directly owned in the future by such Grantor and any
certificates representing all such Equity Interests (the “Pledged Stock”); provided that Pledged
Stock shall include the interests listed on Schedule I; (b)(i) any presently owned or hereafter
acquired debt for borrowed money consisting of or evidenced by certificated securities or
instruments and (ii) the promissory notes and any other instruments, if any, evidencing such debt
for borrowed money (collectively, clauses (b)(i) and (b)(ii) shall be referred to herein as the
“Pledged Debt Securities”); provided that the Pledged Debt Securities shall include the debt
securities and instruments listed on Schedule I; (c) subject to Section 3.06, all payments of
principal or interest, dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received,
receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of, in exchange for or upon the conversion of, and
all other proceeds received in respect of, the securities and other property referred to in clauses
(a) and (b) above; (d) all rights and privileges of such Grantor with respect to the securities and
other property referred to in clauses (a), (b) and (c) above; and (e) all proceeds of any of the
foregoing (the items referred to in clauses (a) through (e) above being collectively referred to as
the “Pledged Collateral”).



     TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Pledged Collateral, together with all right, title, interest, powers,
privileges and preferences pertaining or incidental thereto, unto the Collateral Agent, its
successors and assigns, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, forever; subject, however,
to the terms, covenants and conditions hereinafter set forth. The security interest granted in the
Pledged Collateral is granted as security only and shall not subject the Collateral Agent or any
other Secured Party to, or in any way alter or modify, any obligation or liability of any Grantor
with respect to or arising out of the Pledged Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Agreement, (a) this Section 3.01 shall not constitute a grant of a security interest (but
without limitation of the grant of security interest in the Article 9 Collateral pursuant to
Section 4.01) in, and “Pledged Collateral” shall not include, any Excluded Assets, (b) this Section
3.01 shall not constitute a grant of a security interest (but without limitation of the grant of
security interest in the Article 9 Collateral pursuant to Section 4.01) in any asset or property to
the extent such grant of a security interest in such asset or property shall contravene the Agreed
Security Principles or Section 9.21 of the Credit Agreement and (c) other than as required pursuant
to Section 3.02(e) hereof, no Grantor shall be required to take any action with respect to the
perfection of security interests in security accounts (including entering into control agreements).



     Section 3.02 Delivery of the Pledged Collateral. (a) Each Grantor agrees promptly to deliver
or cause to be delivered to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties,
any and all Pledged Securities evidencing Pledged Stock and any and all Pledged Debt Securities
having an aggregate principal amount in excess of U.S. $5.0 million (other than intercompany
current liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business in connection with the cash
management operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries) (“Material Pledged Debt Securities”) to
the extent such Material Pledged Debt Securities, in the case of promissory notes or other
instruments evidencing Indebtedness, are required to be delivered pursuant to paragraph (b) of this
Section 3.02.

     (b) Each Grantor will cause any Material Pledged Debt Securities owed to such Grantor by any
Person to be evidenced by a duly executed promissory note, including the Intercompany Note, that is
pledged and delivered to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties,
pursuant to the terms hereof. To the extent any such promissory note is a demand note, each
Grantor party thereto agrees, if requested by the Collateral Agent, to immediately demand payment
thereunder upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default specified under Sections 7.01(b),
(c), (f), (h) or (i) of the Credit Agreement.



     (c) Upon delivery to the Collateral Agent, (i) any Material Pledged Debt Securities and all
other Pledged Securities required to be delivered pursuant to the foregoing paragraphs (a) and (b)
of this Section 3.02 shall be accompanied by stock powers or note powers, as applicable, duly
executed in blank or other instruments of transfer reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent
and by such other instruments and documents as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request and (ii)
all other property comprising part of the Pledged Collateral delivered pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement shall be accompanied to the extent necessary to perfect the security interest in or
allow realization on the Pledged Collateral by proper instruments of assignment duly executed by
the applicable Grantor and such other instruments or documents (including issuer acknowledgments in
respect of uncertificated securities) as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request. Each
delivery of Pledged Securities shall be accompanied by a schedule describing the securities, which
schedule shall be attached hereto as Schedule I and made a part hereof; provided that failure to
attach any such schedule hereto shall not affect the validity of such pledge of such Pledged
Securities. Each schedule so delivered shall supplement any prior schedules so delivered.



     (d) With respect to any Pledged Stock that is an “uncertificated security ” (as defined in the
New York UCC), each Grantor agrees (x) promptly in the case of any Grantor who becomes a party
hereto pursuant to Section 7.15 or (y) otherwise within 30 days from the date any Grantor first
acquires Pledged Stock that is an “uncertificated security” (as defined in the New York UCC) or
from the date that any Pledged Stock otherwise becomes an “uncertificated security” (as defined in
the New York UCC), to cause the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties,
to have “control” (within the meaning of Section 8-106(c)(2) of the New York UCC) over such
uncertificated securities by causing the issuer of such uncertificated security to enter into an
agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, pursuant to which
the issuer agrees to comply with all instructions of the Collateral Agent relating to such
uncertificated securities without further consent of the Grantor. Each delivery of a control
agreement with respect to uncertificated securities shall be accompanied by a schedule describing
the securities, which schedule shall be attached hereto as Schedule I and made a part hereof;
provided that failure to attach any such schedule hereto shall not affect the validity of such
pledge of such Pledged Collateral. Each schedule so delivered shall supplement any prior schedules
so delivered.



     (e) Notwithstanding sub-paragraphs (a) and (d) above, with respect to any Pledged Stock in
which the Grantor holds its interest in the form of a security entitlement, each Grantor agrees (x)
promptly in the case of any Grantor who becomes a party hereto pursuant to Section 7.15 or (y)
otherwise within 30 days from the date any Grantor first acquires Pledged Stock held in the form of
a security entitlement or from the date that any Pledged Stock otherwise becomes held by a Grantor
in the form of a security entitlement, to cause the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of
the Secured Parties, to have “control” (within the meaning of Section 8-106(d)(2) of the New York
UCC) over such security entitlement by causing the applicable securities intermediary to enter into
an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, pursuant to
which the securities intermediary agrees to comply with all entitlement orders of the Collateral
Agent relating to such security entitlement without further consent of the Grantor. Each delivery
of a control agreement with respect to security entitlements shall be accompanied by a schedule
describing the securities underlying such security entitlements, which

schedule shall be attached hereto as Schedule I and made a part hereof; provided that failure
to attach any such schedule hereto shall not affect the validity of such pledge of such Pledged
Collateral. Each schedule so delivered shall supplement any prior schedules so delivered.




     (f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Collateral Agent shall not issue
instructions or entitlement orders (in each case as such term is used in the New York UCC) to a
bank, securities intermediary or issuer of Pledged Collateral or other party to any control
agreement (including any securities account control agreement or agreement of an issuer of Pledged
Collateral of the type contemplated by Sections 3.02(d) and (e)) entered into pursuant to the terms
of the Loan Documents, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.



     Section 3.03 Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The Grantors, jointly and severally,
represent, warrant and covenant to and with the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the
Secured Parties, that:



     (a) Schedule I correctly sets forth the (x) name and jurisdiction of each issuer of, and the

the Pledged Stock and (y) amount and obligor under the Pledged Debt Securities;



     (b) each Grantor has good and valid rights in and good and marketable title to the Pledged

Collateral pursuant hereto and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement, without the consent or approval of any other Person other than any
consent or approval that has been obtained;



     (c) the Pledged Stock and Pledged Debt Securities (solely with respect to Pledged Debt
Securities issued by a Person that is not a Subsidiary of the Borrower, to each Grantor’s
knowledge) have been duly and validly authorized and issued by the issuers thereof and (i) in the
case of Pledged Stock, are fully paid and nonassessable and (ii) in the case of Pledged Debt
Securities (solely with respect to Pledged Debt Securities issued by a Person that is not a
Subsidiary of the Borrower, to each Grantor’s knowledge) are legal, valid and binding obligations
of the issuers thereof;



     (d) except for the security interests granted hereunder, each Grantor (i) is and, subject to
any transfers made in compliance with the Credit Agreement, will continue to be the direct owner,
beneficially and of record, of the Pledged Collateral indicated on Schedule I as owned by such
Grantor, (ii) holds the same free and clear of all Liens, other than Liens arising by operation of
law, (iii) will make no assignment, pledge, hypothecation or transfer of, or create or permit to
exist any security interest in or other Lien on, the Pledged Collateral, other than Liens arising
by operation of law and (iv) subject to the rights of such Grantor under the Loan Documents to
dispose of Pledged Collateral, will, at its own expense, take any and all actions necessary to
defend title to the Pledged Collateral against all Persons and to defend the security interest of
the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Pledged Collateral
against any Lien and the priority thereof against any Lien (other than Liens arising by operation
of law);



     (e) except for restrictions and limitations imposed by the Loan Documents or otherwise
permitted to exist pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, and to the extent applicable,
laws of any applicable Foreign Jurisdiction with respect to Pledged Collateral pledged after the
Closing Date and securities laws generally, (i) the Pledged Collateral is and will continue to be
freely transferable and assignable and (ii) none of the Pledged Collateral is or will be subject to
any option, right of first refusal, shareholders agreement, charter or by-law provisions or
contractual restriction of any nature that might

prohibit, impair, delay or otherwise affect the pledge of such Pledged Collateral hereunder,
the sale or disposition thereof pursuant hereto or the exercise by the Collateral Agent of rights
and remedies hereunder;




     (f) each Grantor has the power and authority to pledge the Pledged Collateral pledged by it
hereunder in the manner hereby done or contemplated;



     (g) except, to the extent applicable, for consents or approvals required by the laws of any
applicable Foreign Jurisdiction with respect to Pledged Collateral pledged after the Closing Date,
no consent or approval of any Governmental Authority, any securities exchange or any other Person
was or is necessary for the validity of the pledge effected hereby (other than such as have been
obtained and are in full force and effect);



     (h) by virtue of the execution and delivery by the Grantors of this Agreement, when any
Pledged Securities are delivered to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured
Parties, in accordance with this Agreement, and, with respect to any other Pledged Collateral, upon
the earlier to occur of (x) the filing of the financing statements referred to in Section 4.02(c)
or (y) the taking of the actions to provide the Collateral Agent with control as contemplated by
Sections 3.02(d) and 3.02(e), the Collateral Agent will obtain, for the ratable benefit of the
Secured Parties, a legal, valid and perfected first priority lien upon and security interest in
such Pledged Securities and such other Pledged Collateral as security for the payment and
performance of the Secured Obligations under the New York UCC, subject to Liens arising by
operation of law;



     (i) the pledge effected hereby is effective to vest in the Collateral Agent, for the ratable
benefit of the Secured Parties, the rights of the Grantors in the Pledged Collateral as set forth
herein, subject, to the extent applicable, to consents or approvals required by laws of any
applicable Foreign Jurisdiction with respect to Pledged Collateral pledged after the Closing Date;
and



     (j) as of the date hereof, each interest in any limited liability company or limited
partnership that is Pledged Collateral (i) is not dealt in or traded on securities exchanges or in
securities markets, (ii) is not an “investment company security” (as defined in Section 8-103(b) of
the New York UCC) and (iii) does not provide, in the related limited liability company, partnership
or operating agreement, certificates, if any, representing such Pledged Collateral or otherwise,
that they are securities governed by the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction.



     Section 3.04 Status as “Securities” of Limited Liability Company and Limited Partnership
Interests under Article 8. Each Loan Party hereby covenants and agrees that, without the prior
express written consent of the Collateral Agent, it will not agree to any election by any such
limited partnership or limited liability company to treat such limited partnership interests or
limited liability company interests as securities governed by the Uniform Commercial Code of any
jurisdiction unless it promptly notifies the Collateral Agent of such election and takes such
action required to establish the Collateral Agent’s “control” (within the meaning of Section 8-106
of the New York UCC) over such Pledged Collateral as required pursuant to Section 3.02.



     Section 3.05 Registration in Nominee Name; Denominations. The Collateral Agent, on behalf of
the Secured Parties, shall have the right (in its sole and absolute discretion) to hold the Pledged
Securities in the name of the applicable Grantor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the
Collateral Agent or, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in its own name
as pledgee or in the name of its nominee (as pledgee or as sub-agent). Each Grantor will promptly
give to the Collateral Agent copies of any notices or other communications received by it with
respect to Pledged Securities registered in the name of such Grantor. If an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be

continuing, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to exchange the certificates
representing Pledged Securities for certificates of smaller or larger denominations for any purpose
consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Grantor shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to cause any Person that is not a party to this Agreement to comply
with a request by the Collateral Agent, pursuant to this Section 3.05, to exchange certificates
representing Pledged Securities of such Person for certificates of smaller or larger denominations.




     Section 3.06 Voting Rights; Dividends And Interest, etc. (a) Unless and until an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing:




     (i) Each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and/or other
consensual rights and powers inuring to an owner of Pledged Collateral or any part thereof
for any purpose consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the
other Loan Documents; provided that such rights and powers shall not be exercised in any
manner that could materially and adversely affect the rights inuring to a holder of any
Pledged Collateral, the rights and remedies of any of the Collateral Agent or the other
Secured Parties under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or the
ability of the Secured Parties to exercise the same.




     (ii) The Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to each Grantor, or cause

interest, principal and other distributions paid on or distributed in respect of the Pledged
Collateral to the extent and only to the extent that such dividends, interest, principal and
other distributions are permitted by, and otherwise paid or distributed in accordance with,
the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and applicable
laws; provided that any noncash dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that
would constitute Pledged Securities, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or
reclassification of the outstanding Equity Interests of the issuer of any Pledged Securities
or received in exchange for Pledged Securities or any part thereof, or in redemption
thereof, or as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or other exchange of
assets to which such issuer may be a party or otherwise, shall be and become part of the
Pledged Collateral, and, if received by any Grantor, shall not be commingled by such Grantor
with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and apart therefrom,
shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of
the Secured Parties, and shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent, for the
ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in the same form as so received (endorsed in a
manner reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent).



     (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and after notice by
the Collateral Agent to the relevant Grantors of the Collateral Agent’s intention to exercise its
rights hereunder, all rights of any Grantor to dividends, interest, principal or other
distributions that such Grantor is authorized to receive pursuant to paragraph (a)(iii) of this
Section 3.06 shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested, for the ratable
benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Collateral Agent which shall have the sole and exclusive
right and authority to receive and retain such dividends, interest, principal or other
distributions. All dividends, interest, principal or other distributions received by any Grantor
contrary to the provisions of this Section 3.06 shall not be commingled by such Grantor with any of
its other funds or property but shall be held separate and apart therefrom, shall be held in trust

for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and
shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured
Parties, in the same form as so received (endorsed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent). Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by the Collateral
Agent pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph (b) shall be retained by the Collateral Agent in
an account to be established by the Collateral Agent upon receipt of such money or other property
and shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.02. After all Events of
Default have been cured or waived and the Borrower has delivered to the Collateral Agent a
certificate to that effect, the Collateral Agent shall promptly repay to each Grantor (without
interest) all dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Grantor would
otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 3.06
and that remain in such account.




     (c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and after notice by
the Collateral Agent to the relevant Grantors of the Collateral Agent’s intention to exercise its
rights hereunder, all rights of any Grantor to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and
powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 3.06, and the
obligations of the Collateral Agent under paragraph (a)(ii) of this Section 3.06, shall cease, and
all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of
the Secured Parties, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise such
voting and consensual rights and powers; provided that, unless otherwise directed by the Required
Lenders, the Collateral Agent shall have the right from time to time following and during the
continuance of an Event of Default to permit the Grantors to exercise such rights. After all
Events of Default have been cured or waived and the Borrower has delivered to the Collateral Agent
a certificate to that effect, each Grantor shall have the right to exercise the voting and/or
consensual rights and powers that such Grantor would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to
the terms of paragraph (a)(i) above.

Secured Parties, a security interest (the “Security Interest”) in all right, title and interest in,

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (a) this Section 4.01 shall not

in the Pledged Collateral pursuant to Section 3.01) in, and “Article 9 Collateral” shall not
include, any Excluded Assets, (b) this Section 4.01 shall not constitute a grant of a security
interest (but without limitation of the grant of security interest in the Pledged Collateral

in such asset or property shall contravene the Agreed Security Principles or Section 9.21 of the
Credit Agreement and (c) no Grantor shall be required to take any action with respect to the
perfection of security interests in motor vehicles, cash or assets in deposit accounts (including
entering into control agreements).




     (b) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent at any time and from time
to time to file in any relevant jurisdiction any initial financing statements (including Fixture
filings with respect to Fixtures situated on real property (regardless of whether such real
property is owned by a Loan Party or is owned by a Person other than a Loan Party)), continuation
statements, or other filings and recordings, with respect to the Article 9 Collateral and any other
collateral pledged hereunder or any part thereof and amendments thereto that contain the
information required by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of each applicable jurisdiction
for the filing of any financing statement or amendment, or such other information as may be
required under applicable law including (i) whether such Grantor is an organization, the type of
organization and any organizational identification number issued to such Grantor, (ii) in the case
of Fixtures, if required, a sufficient description of the real property to which such Article 9
Collateral relates and (iii) a description of collateral that describes such property in any other
manner as the Collateral Agent may reasonably determine is necessary or advisable to ensure the
perfection of the security interest in the Article 9 Collateral or other collateral granted under
this Agreement, including describing such property as “all assets” or “all property.” Each Grantor
agrees to provide such information to the Collateral Agent promptly upon request.



     The Collateral Agent is further authorized to file with the United States Patent and Trademark
Office or United States Copyright Office (or any successor office or any similar office in any
other



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement






13









 








country) such documents executed by any Grantor as may be necessary or advisable for the
purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the Security Interest
granted by each Grantor and naming any Grantor or the Grantors as debtors and the Collateral Agent
as secured party.




     (c) The Security Interest is granted as security only and shall not subject the Collateral
Agent or any other Secured Party to, or in any way alter or modify, any obligation or liability of
any Grantor with respect to or arising out of the Article 9 Collateral.



     Section 4.02 Representations and Warranties. The Grantors jointly and severally represent and
warrant to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties that:



     (a) Each Grantor has good and valid rights and title to the Article 9 Collateral with respect
to which it has purported to grant a Security Interest hereunder and has full power and authority
to grant to the Collateral Agent the Security Interest in such Article 9 Collateral pursuant hereto
and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,
without the consent or approval of any other Person other than any consent or approval that has
been obtained and is in full force and effect.



     (b) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each Grantor (in its capacities as
Grantor and Guarantor) and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Grantor in
such capacities enforceable against each such Grantor in such capacities in accordance with its
terms, subject to (i) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization, fraudulent
conveyance or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general principles of equity
(regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and
(iii) implied covenants of good faith and fair dealing.



     (c) The Perfection Certificate has been duly prepared, completed and executed and the
information set forth therein, including the exact legal name of each Grantor, is correct and
complete, in all material respects, as of the Closing Date. Uniform Commercial Code financing
statements (including Fixture filings, as applicable) or other appropriate filings, recordings or
registrations containing a description of the Article 9 Collateral have been prepared by the
Collateral Agent based upon the information provided to the Collateral Agent in the Perfection
Certificate for filing in each governmental, municipal or other office specified in Sections I and
II of the Perfection Certificate (or specified by notice from the Borrower to the Collateral Agent
after the Closing Date in the case of filings, recordings or registrations required by Section 5.10
of the Credit Agreement), and constitute all the filings, recordings and registrations (other than
filings required to be made in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States
Copyright Office in order to publish notice of or perfect the Security Interest in Article 9
Collateral consisting of United States registrations and applications for Patents, Trademarks and
Copyrights) that are necessary to publish notice of and protect the validity of and to establish a
legal, valid and perfected security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the ratable
benefit of the Secured Parties) in respect of all Article 9 Collateral in which the Security
Interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registration in the United States (or any
political subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions, and no further or subsequent
filing, refiling, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration is necessary in any such
jurisdiction, except as provided under applicable law with respect to the filing of continuation
statements or amendments. To the extent that a Grantor has Article 9 Collateral consisting of
Intellectual Property set forth on Schedule II hereof (as such Schedule is updated from time to
time), each Grantor represents and warrants that a fully executed agreement in the form of Exhibit
IV hereof (or a short form hereof which form shall be reasonably acceptable to the Collateral
Agent) containing a description of all Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property
with respect to United States registrations and applications for Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights
has been delivered to the Collateral Agent for recording with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office and the United



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement





14









 








States Copyright Office pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 261, 15 U.S.C. § 1060 or 17 U.S.C. § 205 and
the regulations thereunder, as applicable, and reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent, to
establish (in the case of registered Copyrights) a valid and perfected security interest in favor
of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and to provide notice to
third parties of the security interest created hereby (in the case of registered Patents and
Trademarks) in respect of all Article 9 Collateral consisting of such Intellectual Property in
which a security interest may be perfected or protected by recording with the United States Patent
and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, and no further or subsequent filing,
refiling, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration is necessary (other than such
actions as are necessary to perfect or protect the Security Interest with respect to any Article 9
Collateral consisting of registrations and applications for Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights
acquired or developed after the date hereof).




     (d) The Security Interest constitutes (i) a legal and valid security interest in all the
Article 9 Collateral securing the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations under the New
York UCC, (ii) subject to the filings described in Section 4.02(c), a perfected security interest
in all Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or
registering a financing statement or analogous document in the United States (or any political
subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code or
other applicable law in such jurisdictions and (iii) to the extent that a Grantor has Article 9
Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property set forth on Schedule II hereof (as such Schedule is
updated from time to time), a security interest that shall be perfected in all Article 9 Collateral
in which a security interest may be perfected upon the receipt and recording of a fully executed
agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit IV hereto with the United States Copyright Office.
The Security Interest shall be prior to any other Lien on any of the Article 9 Collateral other
than, in the case of Article 9 Collateral other than Pledged Collateral, Prior Liens and, in the
case of Pledged Collateral, Liens arising by operation of law.



     (e) The Article 9 Collateral (other than the Pledged Collateral) is owned by the Grantors free
and clear of any Lien, other than Liens expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit
Agreement, and the Article 9 Collateral consisting of Pledged Collateral is owned by the Grantors
free and clear of any Lien, other than Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent and Liens arising by
operation of law. None of the Grantors has filed or consented to the filing of (i) any financing
statement or analogous document under the Uniform Commercial Code (including the New York UCC) in
any applicable jurisdiction or any other applicable laws covering any Article 9 Collateral, (ii)
any assignment in which any Grantor assigns any Article 9 Collateral or any security agreement or
similar instrument covering any Article 9 Collateral with the United States Patent and Trademark
Office or the United States Copyright Office or (iii) any assignment in which any Grantor assigns
any Article 9 Collateral or any security agreement or similar instrument covering any Article 9
Collateral with any foreign governmental, municipal or other office, which financing statement or
analogous document, assignment, security agreement or similar instrument is still in effect,
except, in each case, as expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement.



     (f) None of the Grantors holds any Commercial Tort Claim individually in excess of U.S. $5.0
million except as indicated on Schedule IV hereto, as such schedule may be updated or supplemented
from time to time.



     (g) All Accounts have been originated by the Grantors and all Inventory has been acquired by
the Grantors in the ordinary course of business.



     (h) As to itself and its Intellectual Property, except to the extent not reasonably expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect:



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement





15









 









     (i) The operation of such Grantor’s business as currently conducted and the use of the
Grantor Intellectual Property in connection therewith do not infringe, misappropriate or
otherwise violate the intellectual property rights of any third party.




     (ii) Such Grantor owns or has the right to use the Grantor Intellectual Property.




     (iii) The Intellectual Property set forth on Schedule II hereto includes all of the
patents, patent applications, domain names, trademark registrations and applications and
copyright registrations owned by such Grantor.




     (iv) The Grantor Intellectual Property has not been abandoned and has not been adjudged
invalid or unenforceable in whole or part.



     Section 4.03 Covenants. (a) Each Grantor agrees promptly to notify the Collateral Agent in
writing of any change (i) in its corporate name, (ii) in its identity or type of organization or
corporate structure, (iii) in its Federal Taxpayer Identification Number or organizational
identification number or (iv) in its jurisdiction of organization. Each Grantor agrees promptly to
provide the Collateral Agent with certified organizational documents reflecting any of the changes
described in the immediately preceding sentence. Each Grantor agrees not to effect or permit any
change referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph (a) unless all filings have been made
under the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise that are required in order for the Collateral Agent
to continue at all times following such change to have a valid, legal and perfected first priority
security interest in all the Article 9 Collateral, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties.
Each Grantor agrees promptly to notify the Collateral Agent if any material portion of the Article
9 Collateral owned or held by such Grantor is damaged or destroyed.



     (b) Subject to the rights of such Grantor under the Loan Documents to dispose of Collateral,
each Grantor shall, at its own expense, take any and all actions necessary to defend title to the
Article 9 Collateral (other than the Pledged Collateral) against all Persons and to defend the
Security Interest of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in the
Article 9 Collateral (other than the Pledged Collateral) against any Lien and the priority thereof
against any Lien (other than Prior Liens).



     (c) Each Grantor agrees, at its own expense, to execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be
duly filed all such further instruments and documents and take all such actions as the Collateral
Agent may from time to time reasonably request to preserve, protect and perfect the Security
Interest and the rights and remedies created hereby, including the payment of any fees and taxes
required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the granting of the
Security Interest and the filing of any financing statements (including Fixture filings) or other
documents in connection herewith or therewith. If any amount payable under or in connection with
any of the Article 9 Collateral that is in excess of U.S. $5.0 million shall be or become evidenced
by any promissory note or other instrument, such note or instrument shall be promptly pledged and
delivered to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, duly endorsed in
a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.



     Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby authorizes the
Collateral Agent, with prompt notice thereof to the Grantors, to supplement this Agreement by
supplementing Schedule II or adding additional schedules hereto to specifically identify any asset
or item that may constitute a registration or application for any Copyrights, Patents or
Trademarks; provided that any Grantor shall have the right, exercisable within 30 days after it has
been notified by the Collateral Agent of the specific identification of such Article 9 Collateral,
to advise the Collateral Agent in writing of any inaccuracy of the representations and warranties
made by such Grantor hereunder with respect to such Article 9 Collateral. Each Grantor agrees that
it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to take such action as shall be necessary in order
that all representations and warranties hereunder shall be true and



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement





16









 








correct with respect to such Article 9 Collateral within 30 days after the date it has been
notified by the Collateral Agent of the specific identification of such Article 9 Collateral.




     (d) After the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, the
Collateral Agent shall have the right to verify under reasonable procedures the validity, amount,
quality, quantity, value, condition and status of, or any other matter relating to, the Article 9
Collateral, including, in the case of Accounts or Article 9 Collateral in the possession of any
third Person, by contacting Account Debtors or the third Person possessing such Article 9
Collateral for the purpose of making such a verification. The Collateral Agent shall have the
right to share any information it gains from such inspection or verification with any Secured
Party.



     (e) At its option, the Collateral Agent may discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges,
fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Article 9
Collateral and not permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement, and may pay for the
maintenance and preservation of the Article 9 Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails to do so
as required by the Credit Agreement or this Agreement, and each Grantor jointly and severally
agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent on demand for any reasonable payment made or any
reasonable expense incurred by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the foregoing authorization;
provided, however, such Grantor shall not be obligated to reimburse Collateral Agent with respect
to any Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property which any Grantor has failed to
maintain or pursue, or otherwise has allowed to lapse, terminate or put in the public domain, in
accordance with Section 4.05(h) and provided, however, that nothing in this Section 4.03(e) shall
be interpreted as excusing any Grantor from the performance of, or imposing any obligation on the
Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to cure or perform, any covenants or other promises of any
Grantor with respect to taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other
encumbrances and maintenance of the Collateral as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents.



     (f) Each Grantor (rather than the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party) shall remain liable
for the observance and performance of all the conditions and obligations to be observed and
performed by it under each contract, agreement or instrument relating to or constituting Article 9
Collateral and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties from and against any and all liability for such
performance.



     (g) None of the Grantors shall make or permit to be made an assignment, pledge or
hypothecation of the Article 9 Collateral or shall grant any other Lien in respect of the Article 9
Collateral, except as expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement. None of the Grantors shall make
or permit to be made any transfer of the Article 9 Collateral and each Grantor shall remain at all
times in possession of the Article 9 Collateral owned by it, except as permitted by the Credit
Agreement.



     (h) None of the Grantors will, without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent, grant any
extension of the time of payment of any Accounts included in the Article 9 Collateral, compromise,
compound or settle the same for less than the full amount thereof, release, wholly or partly, any
Person liable for the payment thereof or allow any credit or discount whatsoever thereon, other
than extensions, credits, discounts, compromises or settlements granted or made in the ordinary
course of business and consistent with prudent business practices or as otherwise permitted by the
Credit Agreement.



     (i) Each Grantor irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent (and all
officers, employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent) as such Grantor’s true and lawful
agent (and attorney-in-fact) for the purpose, during the continuance of an Event of Default, of
making, settling and adjusting claims in respect of Article 9 Collateral under policies of
insurance covering the Article 9 Collateral, endorsing the name of such Grantor on any check,
draft, instrument or other item of payment



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement





17









 








for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and for making all determinations and decisions
with respect thereto. In the event that any Grantor at any time or times shall fail to obtain or
maintain any of the policies of insurance required by the Credit Agreement or to pay any premium in
whole or part relating thereto, the Collateral Agent may, without waiving or releasing any
obligation or liability of the Grantors hereunder or any Event of Default, in its sole discretion,
obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premium and take any other actions with
respect thereto as the Collateral Agent reasonably deems advisable. All sums disbursed by the
Collateral Agent in connection with this Section 4.03(i), including reasonable attorneys’ fees,
court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable, upon demand, by the
Grantors to the Collateral Agent and shall be additional Secured Obligations secured hereby.




     Section 4.04 Other Actions. In order to further ensure the attachment, perfection and
priority of, and the ability of the Collateral Agent to enforce, for the ratable benefit of the
Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Article 9 Collateral, each Grantor
agrees, in each case at such Grantor’s own expense, to take the following actions with respect to
the following Article 9 Collateral:



     (a) Instruments and Tangible Chattel Paper. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire
any Instruments or Tangible Chattel Paper evidencing an amount in excess of U.S. $5.0 million, such
Grantor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, accompanied
by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may
from time to time reasonably request.



     (b) Cash Accounts. No Grantor shall grant control of any deposit account to any Person other
than the Collateral Agent and the bank with which the deposit account is maintained.



     (c) Investment Property. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Article 3, if any Grantor
shall at any time hold or acquire any certificated security, such Grantor shall forthwith endorse,
assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or
assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably specify.
If any security now or hereafter acquired by any Grantor that is part of the Article 9 Collateral
is uncertificated and is issued to such Grantor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, then
such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing upon the occurrence of such
issuance, and upon the Collateral Agent’s reasonable request and following the occurrence of an
Event of Default, such Grantor shall promptly pursuant to an agreement in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, either (i) cause the issuer to agree to comply
with instructions from the Collateral Agent as to such security, without further consent of any
Grantor or such nominee, or (ii) cause the issuer to register the Collateral Agent as the
registered owner of such security.



     (d) Letter of Credit Rights. If any Grantor is at any time a beneficiary under letters of
credit now or hereafter issued in favor of such Grantor, other than those that together
collectively have a face amount of less than U.S.$5.0 million, such Grantor shall promptly notify
the Collateral Agent thereof and, at the request and option of the Collateral Agent, such Grantor
shall, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral
Agent, use commercially reasonable efforts to either (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer
of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to the Collateral Agent of the proceeds of any
drawing under the letter of credit or (ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the
transferee beneficiary of the letter of credit, with the Collateral Agent agreeing, in each case,
that the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit are to be paid to the applicable
Grantor unless an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing.



     (e) Tort Claims. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim in
an amount reasonably estimated to exceed U.S. $5.0 million, such Grantor shall promptly notify the



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement





18









 








Collateral Agent thereof in a writing signed by such Grantor, including a summary description
of such claim, and grant to the Collateral Agent in writing a security interest therein and in the
proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.




     Section 4.05 Covenants Regarding Patent, Trademark and Copyright Collateral. Except to the
extent not reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect:



     (a) Each Grantor agrees that it will not knowingly do any act or omit to do any act (and will
exercise commercially reasonable efforts to prevent its licensees from doing any act or omitting to
do any act) whereby any Patent that is material to the normal conduct of such Grantor’s business
may become prematurely invalidated or dedicated to the public, and agrees that it shall take
commercially reasonable steps with respect to any material products covered by any such Patent as
reasonably necessary and sufficient to establish and preserve its rights under applicable patent
laws.



     (b) Each Grantor will, and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its licensees
or its sublicensees to, for each material Trademark reasonably necessary to the normal conduct of
such Grantor’s business, (i) maintain such Trademark in full force free from any adjudication of
abandonment or invalidity for non-use, (ii) maintain the quality of products and services offered
under such Trademark consistent with the quality of such products and services as of the date
hereof, (iii) display such Trademark with notice of federal or foreign registration or claim of
trademark or service mark as required under applicable law and (iv) not knowingly use or knowingly
permit its licensees’ use of such Trademark in violation of any third-party rights.



     (c) Each Grantor will, and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its licensees
or its sublicensees to, for each work covered by a material Copyright reasonably necessary to the
normal conduct of such Grantor’s business that it publishes, displays and distributes, use
copyright notice as required under applicable copyright laws.



     (d) Each Grantor shall notify the Collateral Agent promptly if it knows that any Patent,
Trademark or Copyright material to the normal conduct of such Grantor’s business may imminently
become abandoned, lost or dedicated to the public other than by expiration, or of any materially
adverse determination or development, excluding office actions and similar determinations in the
United States Patent and Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office, any court or any similar
office of any country, regarding such Grantor’s ownership of any such material Patent, Trademark or
Copyright or its right to register or to maintain the same.



     (e) Each Grantor, either itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall
(i) inform the Collateral Agent on a quarterly basis of each application by itself, or through any
agent, employee, licensee or designee, for any Patent with the United States Patent and Trademark
Office and each registration of any Trademark or Copyright with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any comparable office or agency in any
other country filed during the preceding quarter, and (ii) on a quarterly basis, to the extent that
there are applications of the type referenced in clause (i) above, execute and deliver an agreement
substantially in the form of Exhibit IV hereto to evidence the Collateral Agent’s security interest
in such Patent, Trademark or Copyright.



     (f) Each Grantor shall exercise its reasonable business judgment consistent with past practice
in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright
Office or any comparable office or agency in any other country with respect to maintaining and
prosecuting each material application relating to any Patent, Trademark and/or Copyright (and
obtaining the relevant grant or registration) material to the normal conduct of such Grantor’s
business and to



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement





19









 








maintain (i) each issued Patent and (ii) the registrations of each Trademark and each
Copyright in each case that is material to the normal conduct of such Grantor’s business,
including, when applicable and necessary in such Grantor’s reasonable business judgment, timely
filings of applications for renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and payment
of maintenance fees, and, if any Grantor believes necessary in its reasonable business judgment, to
initiate opposition, interference and cancellation proceedings against third parties.




     (g) In the event that any Grantor knows or has reason to know that any Article 9 Collateral
consisting of a Patent, Trademark or Copyright material to the normal conduct of its business has
been or is about to be materially infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party, such
Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent and shall, if such Grantor deems it necessary in
its reasonable business judgment, promptly contact such third party, and if necessary in its
reasonable business judgment, sue and recover damages, and take such other actions as are
reasonably appropriate under the circumstances.



     (h) Nothing in this Agreement prevents any Grantor from disposing of, discontinuing the use or
maintenance of, failing to pursue, or otherwise allowing to lapse, terminate or put into the public
domain any of its Intellectual Property to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement if such
Grantor determines in its reasonable business judgment that such discontinuance is desirable in the
conduct of its business.



ARTICLE 5

Remedies




     Section 5.01 Remedies Upon Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, each Grantor agrees to deliver each item of Collateral to the Collateral Agent on
demand, and it is agreed that the Collateral Agent shall have the right to take any of or all the
following actions at the same or different times: (a) with respect to any Article 9 Collateral
consisting of Intellectual Property, on demand, to cause the Security Interest to become an
assignment, transfer and conveyance of any of or all such Article 9 Collateral by the applicable
Grantors to the Collateral Agent or to license or sublicense, whether general, special or
otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or a nonexclusive basis, any such Article 9 Collateral
throughout the world on such terms and conditions and in such manner as the Collateral Agent shall
determine (other than in violation of any then-existing licensing arrangements to the extent that
waivers thereunder cannot be obtained and subject to the provisos set forth in Section 5.03) and
(b) with or without legal process and with or without prior notice or demand for performance, to
take possession of the Article 9 Collateral and without liability for trespass to enter any
premises where the Article 9 Collateral may be located for the purpose of taking possession of or
removing the Article 9 Collateral and, generally, to exercise any and all rights afforded to a
secured party under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Collateral Agent shall have
the right, subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable law, upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the
Collateral at a public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for
cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate. The
Collateral Agent shall be authorized in connection with any sale of a security (if it deems it
advisable to do so) pursuant to the foregoing to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to
Persons who represent and agree that they are purchasing such security for their own account, for
investment, and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof. Upon consummation of any such
sale of Collateral pursuant to this Section 5.01, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to
assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each
such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or
right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives and releases (to the extent
permitted by law) all rights of



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement





20









 








redemption, stay, valuation and appraisal that such Grantor now has or may at any time in the
future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted.




     The Collateral Agent shall give the applicable Grantors at least 10 Business Days’ written
notice (which each Grantor agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the
New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Collateral Agent’s intention to make
any sale of Collateral. Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place
for such sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall
state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral,
or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange. Any such public sale
shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as
the Collateral Agent may fix and state in the notice (if any) of such sale. At any such sale, the
Collateral, or the portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate
parcels, as the Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine. The
Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine
not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given.
The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or
cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for
sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same
was so adjourned. In the case of any sale of all or any part of the Collateral made on credit or
for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the sale
price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall not incur any
liability in the event that any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the
Collateral so sold and, in the case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon
notice given in accordance with provisions above. At any public (or, to the extent permitted by
law, private) sale made pursuant to this Section 5.01, any Secured Party may bid for or purchase
for cash, free (to the extent permitted by law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or
appraisal on the part of any Grantor (all such rights being also hereby waived and released to the
extent permitted by law), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may (subject to
the Collateral Agent’s consent) make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and
payable to such Secured Party from any Grantor as a credit against the purchase price, and such
Secured Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such
property without further accountability to any Grantor therefor. For purposes hereof, a written
agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof; the
Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Grantor
shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto,
notwithstanding the fact that after the Collateral Agent shall have entered into such an agreement
all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Secured Obligations paid in full. The
Collateral Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. The
Collateral Agent may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like. This
procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of
the Collateral. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the
Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose upon the
Collateral and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a
court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed
receiver. Any sale pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.01 shall be deemed to conform to
the commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the New York UCC or its
equivalent in other jurisdictions.



     Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other
disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the Secured Obligations and the reasonable
fees and disbursements of any external attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent or any other
Secured Party to collect such deficiency.



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement

     Section 5.02 Application of Proceeds. The Collateral Agent shall promptly apply the proceeds,
moneys or balances of any collection or sale of Collateral, as well as any Collateral consisting of
cash, and the proceeds of any property insurance policy or other insurance policy received by the
Collateral Agent as follows:




     FIRST, to the payment of all costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent
and the Collateral Agent in connection with such collection or sale or otherwise in
connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations,
including all court costs and the fees and expenses of its agents and legal counsel, the
repayment of all advances made by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent
hereunder or under any other Loan Document on behalf of any Grantor and any other costs or
expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under
any other Loan Document;




     SECOND, to the payment in full of the Secured Obligations (the amounts so applied to be
distributed among the Secured Parties pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts of
the Secured Obligations owed to them on the date of any such distribution, it being
understood that with respect to any distributions to the Lenders, Issuing Banks or the
Agents, the amounts so applied shall be distributed to the Administrative Agent to be
applied in accordance with Section 9.23 of the Credit Agreement); and




     THIRD, to the Grantors, their successors or assigns, or as a court of competent
jurisdiction may otherwise direct.



The Collateral Agent shall have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such
proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any sale of Collateral by the
Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial
proceeding), the receipt of the purchase money by the Collateral Agent or of the officer making the
sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and
such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the
purchase money paid over to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for
the misapplication thereof.




     Section 5.03 Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property. For the purpose of enabling the
Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Agreement at such time as the
Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor
shall, upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time after and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, grant to (in the Collateral Agent’s sole discretion) a designee of the Collateral
Agent or the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, an irrevocable,
nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Grantor)
to use, license or, solely to the extent necessary to exercise such rights and remedies, sublicense
any of the Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired
by such Grantor, wherever the same may be located, and including, without limitation, in such
license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored
and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof; provided,
however, that nothing in this Section 5.03 shall require such Grantor to grant any license that is
prohibited by any rule of law, statute or regulation or is prohibited by, or constitutes a breach
or default under or results in the termination of or gives rise to any right of acceleration,
modification or cancellation under any contract, license, agreement, instrument or other document
evidencing, giving rise to a right to use or theretofore granted with respect to such property;
provided, further, that such licenses to be granted hereunder with respect to Trademarks shall be
subject to the maintenance of quality standards with respect to the goods and services on which
such Trademarks are used sufficient to preserve the validity of such Trademarks. The use of such
license by the Collateral



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement





22









 








Agent may be exercised, at the option of the Collateral Agent, upon the occurrence and during
the continuation of an Event of Default; provided that any permitted license, sublicense or other
transaction entered into by the Collateral Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon the
Grantors notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default.




     Section 5.04 Securities Act, etc. In view of the position of the Grantors in relation to the
Pledged Collateral, or because of other current or future circumstances, a question may arise under
the Securities Act of 1933, as now or hereafter in effect, or any similar federal statute hereafter
enacted analogous in purpose or effect (such Act and any such similar statute as from time to time
in effect being called the “Federal Securities Laws”) with respect to any disposition of the
Pledged Collateral permitted hereunder. Each Grantor understands that compliance with the Federal
Securities Laws might very strictly limit the course of conduct of the Collateral Agent if the
Collateral Agent were to attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, and might
also limit the extent to which or the manner in which any subsequent transferee of any Pledged
Collateral could dispose of the same. Similarly, there may be other legal restrictions or
limitations affecting the Collateral Agent in any attempt to dispose of all or part of the Pledged
Collateral under applicable Blue Sky or other state securities laws or similar laws analogous in
purpose or effect. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that in light of such restrictions and
limitations, the Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, (a) may proceed to make
such a sale whether or not a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Pledged
Collateral or part thereof shall have been filed under the Federal Securities Laws or, to the
extent applicable, Blue Sky or other state securities laws, (b) may approach and negotiate with a
single potential purchaser to effect such sale and (c) may, with respect to any sale of the Pledged
Collateral, limit the purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire such
Pledged Collateral for their own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution
or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such sale might result in prices
and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale without such
restrictions. In the event of any such sale, the Collateral Agent shall incur no responsibility or
liability for selling all or any part of the Pledged Collateral at a price that the Collateral
Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, may in good faith deem reasonable under the
circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might have been
realized if the sale were deferred until after registration as aforesaid or if more than a single
purchaser were approached. The provisions of this Section 5.04 will apply notwithstanding the
existence of a public or private market upon which the quotations or sales prices may exceed
substantially the price at which the Collateral Agent sells.



     Section 5.05 Registration, etc. Each Grantor agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, if for any reason the Collateral Agent desires to sell any of
the Pledged Collateral at a public sale, it will, at any time and from time to time, upon the
written request of the Collateral Agent, use its commercially reasonable efforts to take or to
cause the issuer of such Pledged Collateral to take such action and prepare, distribute and/or file
such documents as are required or advisable in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Collateral
Agent to permit the public sale of such Pledged Collateral. Each Grantor further agrees to
indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, each other Secured Party, any
underwriter and their respective officers, directors, affiliates and controlling Persons from and
against all loss, liability, expenses, costs of counsel (including reasonable fees and expenses to
the Collateral Agent of legal counsel), and claims (including the costs of investigation) that they
may incur insofar as such loss, liability, expense or claim arises out of or is based upon any
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any prospectus, notification or offering
circular (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or arises out of or is based upon any alleged
omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
in any thereof not misleading, except insofar as the same may have been caused by any untrue
statement or omission based upon information furnished in writing to such Grantor or the issuer of
such Pledged Collateral by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party expressly for use
therein. Each Grantor further agrees, upon such written request referred to above, to use its
commercially reasonable efforts to qualify, file or



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement





23









 








register, or cause the issuer of such Pledged Collateral to qualify, file or register, any of
the Pledged Collateral under the Blue Sky or other securities laws of such states as may be
reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent and keep effective, or cause to be kept effective, all
such qualifications, filings or registrations. Each Grantor will bear all costs and expenses of
carrying out its obligations under this Section 5.05. Each Grantor acknowledges that there is no
adequate remedy at law for failure by it to comply with the provisions of this Section 5.05 only
and that such failure would not be adequately compensable in damages and, therefore, agrees that
its agreements contained in this Section 5.05 may be specifically enforced.




ARTICLE 6

Indemnity, Subrogation and Subordination




     Section 6.01 Indemnity and Subrogation. In addition to all such rights of indemnity and
subrogation as the Guarantors may have under applicable law (but subject to Section 6.03), (a) the
Borrower agrees that (i) in the event a payment shall be made by any Guarantor (other than the
Borrower) under this Agreement in respect of any Obligation of the Borrower, the Borrower shall
indemnify such Guarantor for the full amount of such payment and such Guarantor shall be subrogated
to the rights of the Person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment
and (ii) in the event any assets of any Guarantor (other than the Borrower) shall be sold pursuant
to this Agreement or any other Security Document to satisfy in whole or in part an Obligation of
the Borrower, the Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor in an amount equal to the greater of the
book value or the fair market value of the assets so sold and (b) each Guarantor (other than the
Borrower) (each such Guarantor, together with the Borrower in the context of clause (a) above, an
“Indemnifying Guarantor”) agrees that (i) in the event a payment shall be made by any other
Guarantor under this Agreement in respect of any Obligation of such Guarantor, such Guarantor shall
indemnify such other Guarantor for the full amount of such payment and such other Guarantor shall
be subrogated to the rights of the Person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent
of such payment and (ii) in the event any assets of any other Guarantor shall be sold pursuant to
this Agreement or any other Security Document to satisfy in whole or in part an Obligation of such
Guarantor, such Guarantor shall indemnify such other Guarantor in an amount equal to the greater of
the book value or the fair market value of the assets so sold.



     Section 6.02 Contribution and Subrogation. Each Guarantor (a “Contributing Guarantor”) agrees
(subject to Section 6.03) that, in the event a payment shall be made by any other Guarantor
hereunder in respect of any Secured Obligation or assets of any other Guarantor shall be sold
pursuant to any Security Document to satisfy any Secured Obligation owed to any Secured Party and
such other Guarantor (the “Claiming Guarantor”) shall not have been fully indemnified by the
Indemnifying Guarantor as provided in Section 6.01, the Contributing Guarantor shall indemnify the
Claiming Guarantor in an amount equal to the amount of such payment or the greater of the book
value or the fair market value of such assets, as applicable, in each case multiplied by a fraction
of which the numerator shall be the net worth of such Contributing Guarantor on the date hereof and
the denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in
the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 7.15, the date of the
supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Guarantor). Any Contributing Guarantor making any
payment to a Claiming Guarantor pursuant to this Section 6.02 shall be subrogated to the rights of
such Claiming Guarantor under Section 6.01 to the extent of such payment.



     Section 6.03 Subordination. (a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, all rights of the Guarantors under Sections 6.01 and 6.02 and all other rights of
indemnity, contribution or subrogation of the Grantors under applicable law or otherwise shall be
fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations. No
failure on the part of the Borrower or any other Guarantor to make the payments required by
Sections 6.01 and 6.02 (or any other



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement





24











 




payments required under applicable law or otherwise) shall in any respect limit the
obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor with respect to its obligations hereunder, and each
Guarantor shall remain liable for the full amount of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder.




     (b) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that all Indebtedness and other monetary obligations owed by
it to any other Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Borrower shall be fully subordinated to the
indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations.



ARTICLE 7

Miscellaneous



     Section 7.01 Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise
expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit
Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be given to
it in care of the Borrower, with such notice to be given as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit
Agreement.



     Section 7.02 Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, the
Security Interest, the security interest in the Pledged Collateral and all obligations of each
Grantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (a) any lack of validity or
enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any agreement with respect to any
of the Secured Obligations or any other agreement or instrument relating to any of the foregoing,
(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of
the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from
the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument, (c) any
exchange, release or non-perfection of any Lien on other collateral, or any release or amendment or
waiver of or consent under or departure from any guarantee, securing or guaranteeing all or any of
the Secured Obligations or (d) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense
available to, or a discharge of, any Grantor in respect of the Secured Obligations or this
Agreement.



     Section 7.03 Binding Effect; Several Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as to
any party to this Agreement when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such party shall have
been delivered to the Administrative Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on
behalf of the Collateral Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such party and the Collateral
Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such
party, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective permitted successors
and assigns, except that no party hereto shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or
obligations hereunder or any interest herein or in the Collateral (and any such assignment or
transfer shall be void) except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the Credit Agreement.
This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Loan Party party
hereto and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any party
without the approval of any other Loan Party party hereto and without affecting the obligations of
any other party hereunder.



     Section 7.04 Successors and Assigns. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall
be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants,
promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Grantor or Guarantor or the Collateral Agent that
are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective permitted
successors and assigns.



     Section 7.05 Collateral Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The parties hereto
agree that the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement of its expenses incurred
hereunder as provided in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement.



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement



25









 





     (b) The parties hereto agree that the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to indemnification as
provided in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement.



     (c) By its acceptance of the benefits hereof, each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees (i) to
reimburse the Collateral Agent, on demand, in the amount of its pro rata share (based on its
Commitments, or if such Commitments shall have expired or terminated, in accordance with the
respective principal amounts of its applicable outstanding Loans or portion of outstanding
Revolving L/C Disbursements owed to it, as applicable), of any reasonable expenses incurred by the
Collateral Agent, including reasonable counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid
for services rendered on behalf of the Collateral Agent which shall not have been reimbursed by the
Borrower and (ii) to indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Agent and any of its directors,
officers, employees or agents, on demand, in the amount of such pro rata share, from and against
any and all liabilities, Taxes, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred
by or asserted against it in its capacity as Collateral Agent or any of them in any way relating to
or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by it or
any of them under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, to the extent the same shall not have
been reimbursed by the Borrower, provided that no Lender or Issuing Bank shall be liable to the
Collateral Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent found in a final
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent or any of its directors, officers,
employees or agents.



     (d) Any such amounts payable by any Grantor or Guarantor as provided hereunder shall be
additional Secured Obligations secured hereby and by the other Security Documents. The provisions
of this Section 7.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the
termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Secured Obligations, the invalidity or
unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any
investigation made by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party. All amounts
due under this Section 7.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor.



     Section 7.06 Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor and Guarantor hereby
appoints the Collateral Agent as the attorney-in-fact of such Grantor and Guarantor for the purpose
of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and executing any instrument
that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which
appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall have the right, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, with full power of substitution either in the Collateral
Agent’s name or in the name of such Grantor and Guarantor, (a) to receive, endorse, assign or
deliver any and all notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment
relating to the Collateral or any part thereof; (b) to demand, collect, receive payment of, give
receipt for and give discharges and releases of all or any of the Collateral; (c) to ask for,
demand, sue for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all moneys due or to become due
under and by virtue of any Collateral; (d) to sign the name of any Grantor or Guarantor on any
invoice or bill of lading relating to any of the Collateral; (e) to send verifications of Accounts
to any Account Debtor; (f) to commence and prosecute any and all suits, actions or proceedings at
law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect or otherwise realize on all or
any of the
Collateral or to enforce any rights in respect of any Collateral; (g) to settle, compromise,
compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating to all or any of the
Collateral; (h) to notify, or to require any Grantor or Guarantor to notify, Account Debtors to
make payment directly to the Collateral Agent; and (i) to use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make
any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement



26









 




with all or any of the Collateral, and to do all
other acts and things necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, as fully and
completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all
purposes; provided, that nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating the
Collateral Agent to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of
any payment received by the Collateral Agent, or to present or file any claim or notice, or to take
any action with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or the moneys due or to become due in
respect thereof or any property covered thereby. Each of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured
Parties shall be accountable only for amounts actually received by it as a result of the exercise
of the powers granted to them herein, and neither they nor their respective officers, directors,
employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor or Guarantor for any act or failure to act
hereunder, except, respectively, to the extent of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.06, the Collateral Agent agrees that it
will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7.06 unless
(x) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or (y) such rights under this power
of attorney are exercised to take any action necessary to secure the validity, perfection or
priority of the Liens on the Collateral.




     Section 7.07 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES
UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, WHETHER SOUNDING IN
CONTRACT LAW OR TORT LAW, SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK.



     Section 7.08 Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder or
under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any such right, power or remedy, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to
enforce such a right, power or remedy, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The rights, powers and remedies of the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies that
they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any
departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be
permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 7.08, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective
only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or the issuance of a Revolving Letter of Credit shall not be
construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of
such Default or Event of Default at the time. No notice or demand on any Loan Party in any case
shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other
circumstances.



     (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except
pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Collateral Agent and the Loan
Party or Loan Parties with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply,
subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 9.08 of the Credit Agreement.



     Section 7.09 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING
OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY
HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED,
EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement



27









 




ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN
INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS
IN THIS SECTION 7.09.




     Section 7.10 Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and
therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in
good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid
provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal
or unenforceable provisions.



     Section 7.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each
of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute but one
contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 7.03. Delivery of an executed
counterpart to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be as effective
as delivery of a manually signed original. Any such delivery shall be followed promptly by delivery
of the manually signed original.



     Section 7.12 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are
for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the
construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.



     Section 7.13 Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) Each party to this Agreement
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive
jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting
in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement
of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that
all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York
State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto
further irrevocably consents to the service of process in any action or proceeding in such courts
by the mailing thereof by any parties thereto by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to
the Borrower at the address specified for the Loan Parties in Section 9.01(a) of the Credit
Agreement. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or
proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment
or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may otherwise have to bring
any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any
Guarantor or Grantor, or its properties, in the courts of any jurisdiction.



     (b) Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest
extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to
the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement
or any other Loan Document in any New York State or federal court sitting in New York County. Each
of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the
defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.



     Section 7.14 Termination or Release. (a) This Agreement, the guarantees made herein, the
Security Interest and all other security interests granted hereby shall terminate, and each Grantor
and Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations hereunder, when all the
Obligations are paid in full in cash and Commitments are terminated (other than (A) contingent
indemnification obligations, (B) obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management
Agreements and Secured



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement



28









 




Swap Agreements and (C) obligations and liabilities under Revolving Letters
of Credit as to which arrangements satisfactory to the Issuing Banks shall have been made).




     (b) Upon the consummation of any transaction or series of transactions as a result of which
any Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower that (x) is not prohibited by
the Loan Documents, (y) is consummated while no Default or Event of Default has occurred or is
continuing, and (z) would not result in a Change in Control, Default or an Event of Default, then
such Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and the
security interests in the Collateral of such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically released.



     (c) Upon any conveyance, sale, lease, assignment, transfer or other disposition by any Grantor
of any Collateral to any Person that is not (and is not required to become) a Loan Party in a
transaction or series of transactions that (x) is not prohibited by the Loan Documents, (y) is
consummated while no Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, and (z) would not
result in a Change in Control, Default or an Event of Default, or upon the effectiveness of any
written consent to the release of the security interest granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant
to Section 9.08 of the Credit Agreement, the security interest in such Collateral shall be
automatically released.



     (d) If any security interest granted hereby in any Collateral violates Section 9.21 of the
Credit Agreement, the security interest in such Collateral shall be automatically released.



     (e) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a), (b), (c) or (d)
of this Section 7.14, the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to any Grantor, at such
Grantor’s expense, all documents that such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such
termination or release and shall assist such Grantor in making any filing in connection therewith.
Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 7.14 shall be without recourse to
or warranty by the Collateral Agent.



     Section 7.15 Additional Subsidiary Guarantors. Any Subsidiary may become a party hereto by
signing and delivering to the Collateral Agent a Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Supplement,
substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto (with such changes and modifications thereto as may
be required by the laws of any applicable Foreign Jurisdiction), whereupon such Subsidiary shall
become a “Guarantor”, “Subsidiary Guarantor” and “Grantor” defined herein with the same force and
effect as if originally named as a Guarantor, Subsidiary Guarantor and Grantor herein. The
execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other party to
this Agreement. The rights and obligations of each party to this Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new party to this Agreement.



     Section 7.16 Reserved.



     Section 7.17 Credit Agreement. If any conflict exists between this Agreement and the Credit
Agreement, the Credit Agreement shall govern.



     Section 7.18 Authority of Collateral Agent. Each Grantor and Guarantor acknowledges that the
rights and responsibilities of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action
taken by the Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Collateral Agent of any
option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting
or arising out of this
Agreement shall, as among the Secured Parties, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such
other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between
the Collateral Agent and the Guarantors and Grantors, the Collateral Agent shall be conclusively
presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or
refrain from acting, and no Guarantor or Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to
make any inquiry respecting



Guarantee and Collateral Agreement

Endnotes




1. It is crucial that the full and exact name of each Grantor is given. Even seemingly minor
errors such as substituting “n.a.” for “national association” or “inc.” for “incorporated” may be
seriously misleading in some states.




2. Please note that the organizational identification number is not the same as the
federal employer’s tax identification number. The organizational identification number is
customarily issued by the Secretary of State or State Corporations Department in the State under
which the particular entity had been organized or formed and may be found on its organizational
documents.




3. If a Grantor does not have an organizational identification number, please indicate
“none.” Additionally, organizational identification numbers are not required for entities
organized under the laws of New York, Delaware, Connecticut, Georgia or Ohio for financing
statements filed in such states. Such organizational identification numbers nevertheless may be
required for financing statements filed in respect of entities organized under the foregoing states
but filed in other states, e.g. in respect of fixtures.

impair, as between each Payor and each Payee, the obligations of such Payor, which are absolute and
unconditional, to pay to such Payee the principal of and interest on this Note as and when due and
payable in accordance with its terms, or is intended to or will affect the relative rights of such
Payee and other creditors of such Payor other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

FORM OF

SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE





     I, the undersigned, the [Chief Financial Officer] [title of other Responsible Officer] of the
Borrower (as defined below), DO HEREBY CERTIFY on behalf of the Borrower that:



     1. This Certificate is furnished pursuant to Section 4.02(h) of the Credit Agreement (as in
effect on the date of this Certificate), dated as of October 1, 2010, among QUICKSILVER GAS
SERVICES LP, a limited partnership organized under the laws of Delaware (“Borrower”), the LENDERS
party thereto from time to time, BNP PARIBAS (“BNP”), as Administrative Agent, BNP, as Collateral
Agent, BANK OF AMERICA, N.A. and ROYAL BANK OF CANADA, as Syndication Agents, BANC OF AMERICA
SECURITIES LLC, BNP PARIBAS SECURITIES CORP., and RBC CAPITAL MARKETS CORPORATION, as Joint Lead
Arrangers, and UBS SECURITIES LLC and ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND PLC, as Co-Documentation Agents.
Terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein with the same meanings.



     2. Immediately after giving effect to the Transactions, (a) the fair value of the assets (for
the avoidance of doubt, calculated to include goodwill and other intangibles) of the Borrower and
its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, at a fair valuation, will exceed the debts and
liabilities, direct, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, of the Borrower and its Relevant
Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis; (b) the present fair saleable value of the property of the
Borrower and its Relevant Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis will be greater than the amount that
will be required to pay the probable liability of the Borrower and its Relevant Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis, on their debts and other liabilities, direct, subordinated, contingent or
otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (c) the Borrower and
its Relevant Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis will be able to pay their debts and liabilities,
direct, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and
matured; and (d) the Borrower and its Relevant Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis will not have
unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the businesses in which they are engaged as such
businesses are now conducted and are proposed to be conducted following the Closing Date.



     3. The Borrower does not intend to, and does not believe that it or any of its Subsidiaries
will, incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature, taking into account the
timing and amounts of cash to be received by it or any Relevant Subsidiary, and the timing and
amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its Indebtedness or the Indebtedness of any such
Relevant Subsidiary.

FORM OF REVOLVING NOTE




	 	 	 	 	 

	 

	 	$_______________
	 	Dated: __________, 2010





FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, QUICKSILVER GAS SERVICES LP (the “Borrower”), HEREBY PROMISES
TO PAY to [NAME OF LENDER] (the “Lender”) or its registered assigns for the account of its
applicable lending office the principal amount of the Revolving Facility Loans (as defined below)
owing to the Lender by the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement dated as of October 1, 2010
(as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
“Credit Agreement”; terms defined therein, unless otherwise defined herein, being used herein as
therein defined) among the Borrower, the LENDERS party thereto from time to time, BNP PARIBAS
(“BNP”), as Administrative Agent, BNP, as Collateral Agent, BANK OF AMERICA, N.A. and ROYAL BANK OF
CANADA, as Syndication Agents, BANC OF AMERICA SECURITIES LLC, BNP PARIBAS SECURITIES CORP., and
RBC CAPITAL MARKETS CORPORATION, as Joint Lead Arrangers, and UBS SECURITIES LLC and ROYAL BANK OF
SCOTLAND PLC, as Co-Documentation Agents.




     The Borrower promises to pay to the Lender or its registered assigns interest on the unpaid
principal amount of each Revolving Facility Loan advanced to the Borrower from the date of such
Revolving Facility Loan until such principal amount is paid in full, at such interest rates, and
payable at such times, as are specified in the Credit Agreement.



     Both principal and interest are payable in U.S. dollars to BNP Paribas, as Administrative
Agent, at 787 Seventh Avenue, New York, New York 10019, Attention: Dina Wilson, Tel: (201)
850-6807, Fax: (201) 850-4020, in immediately available funds. Each Revolving Facility Loan
advanced to the Borrower and the maturity thereof, and all payments made on account of principal
thereof, shall be recorded by the Lender and, prior to any transfer hereof, endorsed on the grid
attached hereto, which is part of this promissory note (the “Promissory Note”); provided, however,
that the failure of the Lender to make any such recordation or endorsement shall not affect the
Obligations of the Borrower under this Promissory Note.



     This Promissory Note is one of the promissory notes referred to in Section 2.09(e) of the
Credit Agreement and is entitled to the benefits of the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement,
among other things, (i) provides for the making of loans (the “Revolving Facility Loans”) by the
Revolving Facility Lenders to or for the benefit of the Borrower from time to time in an aggregate
amount not to exceed at any time outstanding U.S.$400,000,000, the indebtedness of the Borrower
resulting from each such Revolving Facility Loan being, on request of a Revolving Facility Lender,
evidenced by such promissory notes, and (ii) contains provisions for acceleration of the maturity
hereof upon the happening of certain stated events and also for prepayments on account of principal
hereof prior to the maturity hereof upon the terms and conditions therein specified. The
obligations of the Borrower under this Promissory Note and the other Loan Documents, and the
obligations of the other Loan Parties under the Loan Documents, are secured by the Collateral as
provided in the Loan Documents.



     The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to
the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of
America sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Promissory Note or the other Loan Documents, or for
recognition or enforcement of any



G-1-1









 







judgment, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that
all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York
State or, to the extent permitted by law, in
such federal court. The Borrower further irrevocably consents to the service of process in
any action or proceeding in such courts by the mailing thereof by any parties thereto by registered
or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the Borrower at the address specified for the Loan Parties
in Section 9.01(a) of the Credit Agreement. The Borrower agrees that a final judgment in any such
action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the
judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Promissory Note shall affect any
right that the Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this
Promissory Note or the other Loan Documents against the Borrower or any Loan Party or their
properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.



     The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may
legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of
venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Promissory Note or the
other Loan Documents in any New York State or federal court sitting in New York County. The
Borrower hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an
inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

     Both principal and interest are payable in U.S. dollars to BNP Paribas, as Administrative
Agent, at 787 Seventh Avenue, New York, New York 10019, Attention: Dina Wilson, in immediately
available funds. The Incremental Term Loan advanced to the Borrower and the maturity thereof, and
all payments made on account of principal thereof, shall be recorded by the Lender and, prior to
any transfer hereof, endorsed on the grid attached hereto, which is part of this promissory note
(the “Promissory Note”); provided, however, that the failure of the Lender to make any such

Term Lender, evidenced by such promissory notes, and (ii) contains provisions for acceleration of
the maturity hereof upon the happening of certain stated events and also for prepayments on account
of principal hereof prior to the maturity hereof upon the terms and conditions therein specified.
The obligations of the Borrower under this Promissory Note and the other Loan Documents, and the
obligations of the other Loan Parties under the Loan Documents, are secured by the Collateral as
provided in the Loan Documents.



     The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to
the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of
America sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Promissory Note or the other Loan Documents, or for
recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that
all claims in respect of any such action

or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York
State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. The Borrower further irrevocably
consents to the service of process in any action or proceeding in such courts by the mailing
thereof by any parties thereto by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the Borrower at
the address specified for the Loan Parties in Section 9.01(a) of the Credit Agreement. The
Borrower agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may
be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.
Nothing in this Promissory Note shall affect any right that the Lender may otherwise have to bring
any action or proceeding relating to this Promissory Note or the other Loan Documents against the
Borrower or any Loan Party or their properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.




     The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may

transportation or storage of natural gas liquids in the Crestwood Counties.



     2.2 Permitted Exceptions. Notwithstanding any provisions of Section 2.1 to the contrary, the
Crestwood Holdings Entities may engage in the following activities under the following
circumstances:


          (a) any business that (i) is primarily related to the exploration for and production of oil or

concurrence of the Conflicts Committee) has elected not to purchase the Subject Assets; provided,

opportunity to purchase the Subject Assets in accordance with Section 2.3(b) and the General

          The Parties acknowledge and agree that First Reserve is an Affiliate of a private equity fund

every kind and description, independently or with others, including, without limitation, businesses
that may compete with the Partnership Group.



     2.3 Procedures.


          (a) In the event that a Crestwood Holdings Entity becomes aware of an opportunity to make an
acquisition that includes Subject Assets, then the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity may make
such acquisition without first offering the opportunity to the MLP as long as it complies with the
following procedures:



     (i) Within 120 days after the consummation of such an acquisition, the applicable Crestwood
Holdings Entity shall notify the General Partner in writing of such acquisition. Such notice shall
include an offer (the “Offer”) by the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity to sell the Subject
Assets to the MLP, accompanied by a proposed definitive agreement to effectuate the purchase and
sale of the Subject Assets (the “Purchase Agreement”). The Purchase Agreement shall set forth the
material terms of the Offer, including the proposed purchase price, any liabilities to be assumed
by the Partnership Group and the other material terms of the Offer; provided that the
representations and warranties regarding the Subject Assets shall be substantially consistent with
the terms contained in the definitive purchase agreement pursuant to which the applicable Crestwood
Holdings Entity acquired the Subject Assets, subject to such adjustments as the applicable
Crestwood Holdings Entity reasonably determines are necessary to reflect the



6









 





differences in the
transaction. In addition, if any Crestwood Holdings Entity desires to utilize the Subject Assets,
the Offer may include commercially reasonable terms on which the Partnership Group will provide
services to such Crestwood Holdings Entity to enable it to utilize the Subject Assets.




     (ii) As soon as practicable after the Offer is made, the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity
will deliver to the MLP all information prepared by or on behalf of or in the possession of any
Crestwood Holdings Entity related to the Subject Assets and reasonably requested by the MLP, except
for such information determined in good faith by such Crestwood Holdings Entity to be necessary to
preserve any applicable privilege (including the attorney-client privilege). As soon as
practicable, but in any event within 60 days after receipt of the Offer accompanied by the form of
Purchase Agreement, the General Partner shall notify the Crestwood Holdings Entity in writing that
either: (x) the General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership Group, has elected (with the
concurrence of the Conflicts Committee) not to cause a Partnership Group Member to purchase the
Subject Assets, in which event the Crestwood Holdings Entities shall be forever free to continue to
own, operate dispose of or otherwise deal in such Subject Assets, or (y) the General Partner, on
behalf of the Partnership Group, has elected (with the concurrence of the Conflicts Committee) to
cause a Partnership Group Member to purchase the Subject Assets, in which event sub-clauses (iii)
and (iv) shall apply.



     (iii) In the event that the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity and the General Partner (with
the concurrence of the Conflicts Committee) within 60 days after receipt by the General Partner of
the Offer are able to agree on the fair market value of the Subject Assets that are subject to the
Offer accompanied by the form of Purchase Agreement and the other terms of the Offer including,
without limitation, the terms, if any, on which the Partnership Group will provide services to any
Crestwood Holdings Entity to enable it to utilize the Subject Assets, a Partnership Group Member
shall purchase the Subject Assets for the agreed upon fair market value as soon as commercially
practicable after such agreement has been reached (and otherwise on the terms and conditions of the
agreed Purchase Agreement) and, if applicable, enter into an agreement with any Crestwood Holdings
Entity to provide services in a manner consistent with the Offer (as modified based on the
agreement of the Parties and the concurrence of the Conflicts Committee).



     (iv) In the event that the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity and the General Partner (with
the concurrence of the Conflicts Committee) are unable to agree within 60 days after receipt by the
General Partner of the Offer on the fair market value of the Subject Assets that are subject to the
Offer or the other terms of the Offer including, if applicable, the terms on which the Partnership
Group will provide services to any Crestwood Holdings Entity to enable it to utilize the Subject
Assets, the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity and the General Partner will engage a mutually
agreed upon independent investment banking firm or other independent Person that is an expert in
valuing midstream assets like the Subject Assets (such firm or Person, the “Subject Assets
Valuation Expert”) to determine the fair market value of the Subject Assets and/or the other terms
on which the General Partner and the Crestwood Holdings Entity are unable to agree. Such Subject
Assets Valuation Expert will determine the fair market value of the Subject Assets and/or the other
terms on which the General Partner and the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity are unable to agree
within 30 days of its engagement and furnish the applicable



7









 






Crestwood Holdings Entity and the
General Partner its determination. The fees of the Subject Assets Valuation Expert will be split
equally between Crestwood Holdings and the MLP. Once the Subject Assets Valuation Expert has
submitted its determination of the fair market value of the Subject Assets and/or the other terms
on which the Partnership Group and the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity are unable to agree,
the General Partner will have the right, but not the obligation, subject to the concurrence of the
Conflicts Committee, to cause a Partnership Group Member to purchase the Subject Assets pursuant to
the Offer as modified by the determination of the Subject Assets Valuation Expert. The Partnership
Group Member will provide written notice of its decision to the Crestwood Holdings Entity within 30
days after the Subject Assets Valuation Expert has submitted its determination. Failure to provide
such notice within such 30-day period shall be deemed to constitute a decision not to purchase the
Subject Assets. If the General Partner elects to cause a Partnership Group Member to purchase the
Subject Assets, then the Partnership Group Member shall purchase the Subject Assets pursuant to the
Offer as modified by the determination of the Valuation Expert as soon as commercially practicable
after such determination and, if applicable, enter into an agreement with the applicable Crestwood
Holdings Entity to provide services in a manner consistent with the Offer, as modified by the
determination of the Subject Assets Valuation Expert, if applicable.



          (b) In the event that a Crestwood Holdings Entity determines to construct Subject Assets, then
the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity may construct or cause to be constructed such Subject
Assets without first offering the opportunity to construct and own same to the MLP if such
Crestwood Holdings Entity complies with the following procedures:


          (i) Within 120 days after the completion of construction and the commencement of commercial
service of such Subject Assets by a Crestwood Holdings Entity, the applicable Crestwood Holdings
Entity shall notify the General Partner in writing of such construction and offer the Partnership
Group the opportunity to purchase such Subject Assets in accordance with this Section 2.3(b) (the
“Construction Offer”). The Construction Offer shall set forth the Crestwood Holdings Entity’s good
faith estimate of (A) the actual Construction Costs for the Subject Assets incurred by the
applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity, and (B) the fair market value of such Subject Assets, which
fair market value shall constitute the proposed purchase price for the Subject Assets, together
with the other proposed terms relating to the purchase of the Subject Assets, and, if any Crestwood
Holdings Entity desires to utilize the Subject Assets, the Construction Offer may also include
commercially reasonable terms on which the Partnership Group will provide services to such
Crestwood Holdings Entity to enable it to utilize the Subject Assets (collectively, the “Other
Construction Terms ”).


          (ii) As soon as practicable, but in any event within 60 days after receipt of such written
notification, the General Partner shall notify the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity in writing
that either (x) the General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership Group, has elected (with the
concurrence of the Conflicts Committee) not to cause a Partnership Group Member to purchase the
Subject Assets, in which event the Crestwood Holdings Entities shall be forever free to continue to
own, operate dispose of or otherwise deal in such Subject Assets, or (y) the General Partner, on
behalf of the Partnership Group, has elected (with the concurrence of the Conflicts Committee) to
cause a Partnership Group Member to purchase the Subject Assets, in which event the following
procedures shall apply:



8









 







          (iii) In the event that the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity and the General Partner (with
the concurrence of the Conflicts Committee) within 60 days after receipt by the General Partner of
the Construction Offer are able to agree on the fair market value of the Subject Assets that are
subject to the Construction Offer and the Other Construction Terms of the Construction Offer, a
Partnership Group Member shall purchase the Subject Assets for the agreed upon fair market value as
soon as commercially practicable after such agreement has been reached and, if applicable, enter
into an agreement with the Crestwood Holdings Entity to provide services in a manner consistent
with the Construction Offer (as modified based on the agreement of the Parties and the concurrence
of the Conflicts Committee).


          (iv) In the event that the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity and the General Partner (with
the concurrence of the Conflicts Committee) are unable to agree within 60 days after receipt by the
General Partner of the Construction Offer on the fair market value of the Subject Assets that are
subject to the Construction Offer, the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity and the General Partner
will engage a mutually agreed upon independent investment banking firm or other independent Person
that is an expert in valuing midstream assets such as the Subject Assets that are the subject of
the Construction Offer (the “Independent Expert”), to determine the fair market value of the
Subject Assets. Such Independent Expert will determine the fair market value of the Subject Assets
within 30 days of its engagement and furnish the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity and the
General Partner its determination, which determination shall be a final and binding determination
of the fair market value. The fees of the Independent Expert will be split equally between
Crestwood Holdings and the MLP.


          (v) If the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity and the General Partner are unable to agree
within 60 days after receipt by the General Partner of the Construction Offer on all of the Other
Construction Terms, the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity and the General Partner will obtain a
good faith proposal from a mutually agreed upon third party engaged in the business to which such
Other Construction Terms relate in order to determine the Other Construction Terms on which the
General Partner and the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity are unable to agree. Such third party
will submit a good faith proposal regarding the Other Construction Terms on which the General
Partner and the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity are unable to agree within 30 days of its
engagement to the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity and the General Partner, which proposal
shall be a final and binding determination of the Other Construction Terms. The fees of the third
party will be split equally between the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity and the Partnership
Group.


          (vi) Once the fair market value and the Other Construction Terms have been finally determined
pursuant to sub-clauses (iv) or (v) above, the General Partner will have the right, but not the
obligation, subject to the concurrence of the Conflicts Committee, to cause a Partnership Group
Member to purchase the Subject Assets pursuant to the Construction Offer as modified by the
determination of the Independent Expert and/or the third party submitting a proposal, as
applicable. The Partnership Group Member will provide written notice of its decision to the
applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity within 30 days after the later of the date on which the
Independent Expert and/or the third party submitting a proposal, as applicable, has submitted its
determination. Failure to provide such notice within such 30-day period shall be deemed to


9









 






constitute a decision not to purchase the Subject Assets. If the General Partner elects to cause a
Partnership Group Member to purchase the Subject Assets, then the Partnership Group Member shall
purchase the Subject Assets pursuant to the Construction Offer as modified by the agreement of the
Parties, the determination of the Independent Expert and/or the third party submitting a proposal,
as applicable, as soon as commercially practicable after such determination and, if applicable,
enter into an agreement with the applicable Crestwood Holdings Entity to provide services in a
manner consistent with the Construction Offer, as modified by the determination of the third party
submitting a proposal, if applicable.




     2.4 Scope of Prohibition. Except as provided in this Article II and the MLP Agreement, each
Crestwood Holdings Entity shall be free to engage in any business activity, including those that
may be in direct competition with any Partnership Group Member.



     2.5 Enforcement. Each Crestwood Holdings Entity agrees and acknowledges that the Partnership
Group does not have any adequate remedy at law for the breach by the Crestwood Holdings Entities of
the covenants and agreements set forth in this Article II would result in irreparable injury to the
Partnership Group. Each Crestwood Holdings Entity further agrees and acknowledges that any
Partnership Group Member may, in addition to the other remedies which may be available to the
Partnership Group, file a suit in equity to enjoin any of the Crestwood Holdings Entities from such
breach, and consents to the issuance of injunctive relief under this Agreement.



     2.6 Termination. This Article II shall terminate on the first to occur of the following: (a)
August 10, 2017 and (b) at such time as a Crestwood Holdings Entity ceases to own or control a
majority of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the General Partner.



ARTICLE III

Indemnification



     3.1 Indemnification by the Partnership Group. In addition to and not in limitation of the
indemnification provided under the MLP Agreement, the Partnership Group shall indemnify, defend and
hold harmless the Crestwood Holdings Entities and each of their officers, members, managers,
partners, directors, employees and Affiliates from and against any Losses suffered or incurred by
the Crestwood Holdings Entities by reason of or arising out of events and conditions associated
with the operation of the MLP Assets and occurring on or after the Closing Date (as defined in the
Previous Omnibus Agreement), unless in any such case indemnification would not be permitted under
the MLP Agreement by reason of one of the provisos contained in Section 7.7 of the MLP Agreement.



     3.2 Indemnification Procedures.


          (a) The Indemnified Party agrees that within thirty (30) days after it becomes aware of facts
giving rise to a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article III, it will provide notice
thereof in writing to the Indemnifying Party specifying the nature of and specific basis for such
claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party’s failure to provide notice under this
Section 3.2 will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability hereunder with respect to



10









 








such
matter except in the event and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially
prejudiced by such failure or delay.



          (b) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to control all aspects of the defense of (and
any counterclaims with respect to) any claims brought against the Indemnified Party that are
covered by the indemnification set forth in this Article III, including, without limitation, the
selection of counsel, determination of whether to appeal any decision of any court and the settling
of any such matter or any issues relating thereto; provided, however, that no such settlement
shall be entered into without the consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed) of the Indemnified Party unless it includes a full release of the
Indemnified Party from such matter or issues, as the case may be.


          (c) The Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party with respect
to all aspects of the defense of any claims covered by the indemnification set forth in Article
III, including, without limitation, the prompt furnishing to the Indemnifying Party of any
correspondence or other notice relating thereto that the Indemnified Party may receive, permitting
the names of the Indemnified Party to be utilized in connection with such defense, the making
available to the Indemnifying Party of any files, records or other information of the Indemnified
Party that the Indemnifying Party considers relevant to such defense and the making available to
the Indemnifying Party of any employees of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that in
connection therewith the Indemnifying Party agrees to use reasonable efforts to minimize the impact
thereof on the operations of the Indemnified Party and further agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of all files, records and other information furnished by the Indemnified Party
pursuant to this Section 3.2. In no event shall the obligation of the Indemnified Party to
cooperate with the Indemnifying Party as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence be
construed as imposing upon the Indemnified Party an obligation to hire and pay for counsel in
connection with the defense of any claims covered by the indemnification set forth in this Article
III; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may, at its own option, cost and expense, hire
and pay for counsel in connection with any such defense. The Indemnifying Party agrees to keep any
such counsel hired by the Indemnified Party reasonably informed as to the status of any such
defense, but the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to retain sole control over such defense.


          (d) The indemnification obligations under this Article III shall continue with respect to any
claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article III that is pending as of the end of the
applicable survival period notwithstanding the expiration of such survival period.

the MLP Agreement.



ARTICLE V

     5.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the MLP Agreement) constitutes the entire
agreement of the Parties relating to the matters contained herein, superseding all prior contracts
or agreements, whether oral or written, relating to the matters contained herein.



     5.4 Termination. This Agreement, other than the provisions set forth in Article III hereof,
shall terminate upon a Change of Control of the General Partner or the MLP, other than any Change
of Control of the General Partner or the MLP that may be deemed to have occurred pursuant to clause
(iv) of the definition of Change of Control solely as a result of a Change of Control of Crestwood
Holdings. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the General Partner is removed
as general partner of the MLP under circumstances where Cause does not exist and Common Units held
by the General Partner and its Affiliates are not voted in favor of such removal, this Agreement
may immediately thereupon be terminated by Crestwood Holdings.



     5.5 Effect of Waiver or Consent. No waiver or consent, express or implied, by any Party to or
of any breach or default by any Person in the performance by such Person of its obligations

default in the performance by such Person of the same or any other obligations of such Person
hereunder. Failure on the part of a Party to complain of any act of any Person or to declare any
Person in default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver
by such Party of its rights hereunder until the applicable statute of limitations period has run.



     5.6 Amendment or Modification. This Agreement may be amended or modified from time to time
only by the written agreement of all the Parties; provided, however, that the MLP may not, without
the prior approval of the Conflicts Committee, agree to any amendment or modification of this
Agreement that, in the reasonable discretion of the General Partner, will have an adverse effect on
the holders of Common Units. Each such instrument shall be reduced to writing and shall be
designated on its face an “Amendment” or an “Addendum” to this Agreement.



     5.7 Assignment; Third Party Beneficiaries. No Party shall have the right to assign its rights
or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Parties. Each of
the Parties hereto specifically intends that each entity comprising the Crestwood Holdings Entities
and the Partnership Entities, as applicable, whether or not a Party to this Agreement, shall be
entitled to assert rights and remedies hereunder as third-party beneficiaries hereto with respect
to those provisions of this Agreement affording a right, benefit or privilege to any such entity.



     5.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same
effect as if all signatory Parties had signed the same document. All counterparts shall be
construed together and shall constitute one and the same instrument.



     5.9 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person
or circumstance shall be held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this



14









 





Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be
affected thereby and shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law.




     5.10 Gender, Parts, Articles and Sections. Whenever the context requires, the gender of all
words used in this Agreement shall include the masculine, feminine and neuter, and the number of
all words shall include the singular and plural. All references to Article numbers and Section
numbers refer to Articles and Sections of this Agreement.



     5.11 Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and all transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, each Party agrees to execute and deliver such additional documents and
instruments and to perform such additional acts as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate,
carry out and perform all of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement and all such
transactions.



     5.12 Withholding or Granting of Consent. Each Party may, with respect to any consent or
approval that it is entitled to grant pursuant to this Agreement, grant or withhold such consent or
approval in its sole and uncontrolled discretion, with or without cause, and subject to such
conditions as it shall deem appropriate.



     5.13 Laws and Regulations. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no
Party shall be required to take any act, or fail to take any act, under this Agreement if the
effect thereof would be to cause such Party to be in violation of any applicable law, statute, rule
or regulation.



     5.14 Negation of Rights of Limited Partners, Assignees and Third Parties. Except as set forth
in Section 5.7, the provisions of this Agreement are enforceable solely by the Parties, and no
limited partner, member, or assignee of Crestwood Holdings or the MLP or other Person shall have

Agreement or to compel any Party to comply with the terms of this Agreement.
