Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO - July 16, 2012 Exhibit (d)(i) Sponsorship Agreement - July 16, 2012 2. Equity Commitments. Each Sponsor represents and warrants to each other Party that such Sponsor is bound by and has complied with, and agrees that such Sponsor shall continue to be bound by and comply with, the Equity Commitment Letter and that each other Sponsor (other than any Defaulting Sponsor) shall be entitled to enforce, or direct the enforcement of, such Equity Commitment Letter in accordance with this Agreement if and only if the Sponsors (other than any Defaulting Sponsor) have determined by unanimous written consent that the conditions of the Offer have been satisfied or to waive all such conditions remaining unsatisfied. No Party shall attempt to enforce any Equity Commitment Letter until the conditions set forth in this Section have been satisfied. Purchaser shall have no right to enforce any Equity Commitment Letter unless and until directed to do so by the unanimous written consent of the Sponsors (other than any Defaulting Sponsor). 3. Defaulting and Participating Sponsors. Each Sponsor that has complied with the Equity Commitment Letter and this Agreement ("Participating Sponsor") may terminate the participation in the Offer of any Sponsor that has not satisfied the funding requirements contemplated by the Equity Commitment Letter or otherwise failed to comply with the Equity Commitment Letter and this Agreement ("Defaulting Sponsor"); provided, however, that such termination shall not affect any right of any Participating Sponsor as against such Defaulting Sponsor with respect to such failure to fund or any such other non-compliance. If the Participating Sponsors unanimously consent to proceed (and whether or not any Participating Sponsor elects to seek specific performance as against any Defaulting Sponsor in connection herewith), the amount of the commitment of each Defaulting Sponsor shall be offered, first, to the Participating Sponsors pro rata (based on the commitments of such Participating Sponsors), and, thereafter, as applicable, to one or more other co-investors, unanimously approved by the Participating Sponsors. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, from and after the time any Sponsor becomes a Defaulting Sponsor, the approval or consent of such Defaulting Sponsor shall not be required for any purpose hereunder; provided, however, that each Defaulting Sponsor that ultimately participates in the Offer (as a result of any Participating Sponsor electing to seek specific performance as against such Defaulting Sponsor) shall cease to be a "Defaulting Sponsor" and shall have approval and consent rights hereunder. 4. Transfer Restrictions. During the Pre-Acceptance Period, no Sponsor shall transfer any portion of the Commitment or any interest in Purchaser ("Unit") other than to any investment fund affiliated with such Sponsor; provided, however, that no such transfer shall relieve such Sponsor of any corresponding or other portion of any obligation of such Sponsor under the Equity Commitment Letter or hereunder unless and until such fund: (a) has committed equity or similar available capital in amounts sufficient to satisfy such obligation; (b) executes and delivers to Purchaser an appropriate equity commitment letter, a joinder signature page to this Agreement, and each other document reasonably requested by Purchaser (collectively, the "New Sponsor Documents") and agrees to be bound hereby as a "Sponsor" hereunder; (c) certifies to each Party that such fund is capable of performing the obligations of such fund under each such New Sponsor Document; and (d) is approved by each non- transferring Participating Sponsor, which approval may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. 5. Interim Period and Continuing Sponsors. Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate and enter into at or prior to the Acceptance Time: (a) an amended and restated limited liability company agreement of Purchaser ("Purchaser LLC Agreement"); and (b) one or more definitive agreements with the Participating Sponsors (collectively, "Security Holder Agreements") providing for the unanimous consent of the Continuing Sponsors with respect to all decisions to be made by or on behalf of Purchaser with respect to any Offer Matter or the Company or
