------

SECTION 3. *Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein, each Person listed on <u>Schedule A</u> attached hereto as a "Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Lender" (each such Person, a "<u>Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Lender</u>", and collectively, the "<u>Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders</u>") severally (and not jointly) agrees to provide Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments to the Borrower and from time to time thereafter to make Revolving Loans denominated in Dollars (each such loan, a "<u>Fourth</u> <u>Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Loan</u>") in accordance with the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, in each case, in an amount set forth opposite such Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Lender's name on such <u>Schedule A</u> under the heading "Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) From and after the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, (i) the terms and conditions (other than the relevant amount thereof) of the Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall be the same as the terms and conditions (other than the relevant amount thereof) of the Revolving Credit Commitments existing immediately prior to giving effect to this Amendment, (ii) the terms and conditions (other than the relevant amount thereof) of the Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Loans shall be the same as the terms of the Revolving Credit Loans outstanding immediately prior to giving effect to this Amendment, (iii) each Fourth Amendment Revolving Credit Lender shall be a "Lender" and a "Revolving Credit Lender" for all purposes under the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iv) the Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Loans shall be "Loans" and "Revolving Credit Loans", (v) the Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall be "Commitments", "Revolving Credit Commitments", and "Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments", in each case, for all purposes under the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall have the terms set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement and (vi) the Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments (and the Loans issued with respect thereto) and the Revolving Credit Commitments (and the Loans issued with respect thereto) under the Credit Agreement prior to the Fourth Amendment Effective Date shall collectively constitute one and the same tranche and Class of Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments under the Amended Credit Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) This Amendment is an amendment to incur additional Indebtedness as described in Section 2.14(a) of the Credit Agreement and shall constitute an "Incremental Amendment" for all purposes under the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The proceeds of the Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Loans shall be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes not prohibited by the Amended Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, Permitted Investments, Restricted Payments permitted hereby and to pay fees, costs and expenses in connection therewith).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) On the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, (i) each Revolving Credit Lender immediately prior to giving effect to the Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder (the "<u>Existing</u><u> </u><u>Revolving</u><u> </u><u>Lenders</u>") will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to the Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders, and the Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed a portion of such Existing Revolving Lender's participations under the Amended Credit Agreement in outstanding Letters of Credit, if applicable, such that, after giving effect to each deemed assignment and assumption of participations, all of the Revolving Credit Lenders' (including the Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders') participations under the Amended Credit Agreement in Letters of Credit shall be held on a pro rata basis on the basis of their respective Revolving Credit Commitments (after giving effect to the establishment of the Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Amendment), and (ii) if any Revolving Credit Loans are outstanding on such date, the Existing Revolving Lenders shall assign Revolving Credit Loans to the Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders, and the Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders shall purchase such Revolving Credit Loans, in each case to the extent necessary so that all of the Revolving Credit Lenders (including the Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders) participate in each outstanding Borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans pro rata on the basis of their respective Revolving Credit Commitments (after giving effect to the establishment of the Fourth Amendment Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Amendment); it being understood and agreed that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in the Amended Credit Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to this <u>clause (f)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Loan Party and each of the Restricted Subsidiaries (a) is a Person duly organized, formed or incorporated, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent such concept is applicable in the relevant jurisdiction) under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, (b) has all requisite power and authority to (i) own or lease its assets and carry on its business and (ii) execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party, (c) is duly qualified and is authorized to do business and in good standing (to the extent such concept is applicable in the relevant jurisdiction) under the Laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of properties or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, (d) has all requisite governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals to operate its business as currently conducted and (e) is in compliance with all Laws; except in each case referred to in <u>clause (a)</u> (other than with respect to the Borrower), <u>(b)(i)</u> (other than with respect to the Borrower), <u>(c)</u>, <u>(d)</u> and <u>(e)</u>, to the extent that any failure to be so or to have such would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of this Amendment and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, are within such Loan Party's corporate or other powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action and do not (a) contravene the terms of any of such Person's Organization Documents, (b) conflict with or result in any breach or contravention of, or the creation of any Lien under (other than as permitted by Section 7.02 of the Amended Credit Agreement), (i) any Contractual Obligation to which such Person is a party or (ii) any material order, injunction, writ or decree of any Governmental Authority applicable to such Person or its property is subject, except to the extent that such breach, contravention or creation of such Lien would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, or (c) violate any Law; except to the extent that such violation would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party that is party hereto. Subject to the Legal Reservations, this Amendment constitutes, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party that is a party thereto, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms.

SECTION 6. *Counterparts.* This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery by telecopier or other electronic transmission of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Amendment and each other Loan Document shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Amendment. The words "execution," "signed," "signature," and words of like import shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

SECTION 7. *Reference to and Limited Effect on the Credit Agreement and the Other Loan Documents.* On and after the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, (A) each reference in the Credit Agreement to "this Agreement", "hereunder", "hereof", "herein" or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement, and (B) each reference in the other Loan Documents to the "Credit Agreement", "thereunder", "thereof", "therein" or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement after giving effect to this Amendment. Except as specifically amended by this Amendment, the Credit Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed. The execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment shall not constitute a waiver of any provision of, or operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Administrative Agent or Lenders under, the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

------

SECTION 8. *Governing Law*. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 9. *Reaffirmation of the Loan Parties.* Each Loan Party hereby confirms and agrees that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Amendment, the First Amendment, the Second Amendment, the Third Amendment and each other Loan Document to which such Loan Party is a party is, and the obligations of such Loan Party contained in the Amended Credit Agreement, this Amendment, the First Amendment, the Second Amendment, the Third Amendment or in any other Loan Document to which it is a party are, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects. For greater certainty and without limiting the foregoing, each Loan Party hereby confirms that any existing security interests and other Liens granted by such Loan Party in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to any other Loan Document in the Collateral described therein shall continue to secure the obligations of the Loan Parties under the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as and to the extent provided in the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 10. *Consent to Jurisdiction; Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial.* The jurisdiction, service of process and waiver of jury trial provisions set forth in Sections 10.15, 10.16 and 10.17 of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference, *mutatis mutandis*.

SECTION 11. *Severability*. The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Amendment or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Amendment or any instrument or agreement required hereunder.
