			ARTICLE III
TERM AND TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT
		

		
			3.1Term. Subject to the remaining terms of this ARTICLE III, this Agreement shall be for an initial term that begins on the Commencement Date and continues in effect through the fourth anniversary of the Commencement Date (the “Initial Term”) and, unless terminated sooner as herein provided, shall continue on a year‐to‐year basis (each a “Renewal Term” and, together with the Initial Term, the “Term”). If the Company or Executive elects not to renew the Term under this Agreement for a Renewal Term, the Company or Executive must provide a Notice of Termination to the other party at least 90 days before the expiration of the then-current Initial Term or Renewal Term, as applicable. In the event that one party provides the other party with a Notice of Termination pursuant to this Section 3.1, no further automatic extensions will occur and this Agreement and Executive’s employment with the Company shall terminate at the end of the then-existing Initial Term or Renewal Term, as applicable.
		

		
			3.2Company’s Right to Terminate. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1, the Company may terminate Executive’s employment under this Agreement at any time for any of the following reasons by providing Executive with a Notice of Termination: 
		

		
			(a)upon Executive being eligible for the Company’s (or its Affiliate’s) long-term disability benefits, if any are available to employees of the Company; provided that if at any time Executive is unable to perform Executive’s duties or fulfill Executive’s obligations under this Agreement by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 180 days as determined by the Company and certified in writing by a competent medical physician selected solely by the Company in the event of any alleged mental impairment and in the event of any alleged physical impairment by the Company, with the Executive having the right to approve such selection (however, if the Executive fails to approve the Company’s first two selections within ten days of being notified of each such selection, the Company will have the right thereafter to designate any licensed medical physician on staff with either the Baylor College of Medicine or Methodist Hospital, each located in Houston, Texas) (an “Impairment”), then the Company may employ someone to undertake Executive’s authorities, duties and responsibilities with respect to the Company and its Affiliates, including 

		 

		

			4

		

 

		

			 

		

with Executive’s title and reporting lines, during the period from the onset of the Impairment until Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any such action by the Company will not constitute Good Reason, constructive termination or breach of this Agreement or otherwise provided that, if Executive recovers from the incapacity prior to the date he would qualify for long term disability and the Company does not return him to his position, he shall have his rights under the Good Reason provisions of this agreement.
		

		
			(b)Executive’s death; 
		

		
			(c)for Cause; or
		

		
			(d)for any other reason whatsoever or for no reason at all, in the sole discretion of the Board.
		

		
			3.3Executive’s Right to Terminate. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1, Executive shall have the right to terminate Executive’s employment under this Agreement for Good Reason or for any other reason whatsoever or for no reason at all, in the sole discretion of Executive, by providing the Company with a Notice of Termination. In the case of a termination of employment by Executive without Good Reason, the Date of Termination specified in the Notice of Termination shall not be less than 15 nor more than 60 days, respectively, from the date such Notice of Termination is provided, and the Company may require a Date of Termination earlier than that specified in the Notice of Termination (and, if such earlier Date of Termination is so required, it shall not change the basis for Executive’s termination nor be construed or interpreted as a termination of employment pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 3.2).    In the event Executive intends to terminate employment with the Company for Good Reason, the Notice of Breach issued by Executive to the Company pursuant to Section 1.11 shall automatically be deemed a Notice of Termination, effective immediately upon the expiration of the cure period described in Section 1.11.  If Executive fails to provide the Company with the requisite Notice of Termination under this Section 3.3,  Executive forfeits the right to any contingent future payments under this Agreement.    
		

		
			3.4Deemed Resignations. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Company and Executive prior to the termination of Executive’s employment, any termination of Executive’s employment shall constitute an automatic resignation of Executive as an officer of the Company and each Affiliate of the Company (including the Parent Company), and an automatic resignation of Executive from the Board (if applicable) and from the board of directors of the Company and any Affiliate of the Company and from the board of directors or similar governing body of any Entity in which the Company or any Affiliate holds an equity interest and with respect to which board or similar governing body Executive serves as the Company’s or such Affiliate’s designee or other representative which, in each case, is effective as at the Date of Termination.
		

		
			3.5Meaning of Termination of Employment. For all purposes of this Agreement, Executive shall be considered to have terminated employment with the Company only when Executive incurs a “separation from service” with the Company within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and applicable administrative guidance issued thereunder  (“Separation From Service”).

Upon the execution of an equity award agreement by and between Executive and the Parent Company on or about the Commencement Date, Executive will be awarded one-time $500,000 in restricted stock units (valued as of the close of trading on the Commencement Date), which award shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the Stock Incentive Plan and the associated equity award agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Sign-On Stock Incentive Award”).

Executive shall use all reasonable efforts to cause all Persons to whom any Confidential Information shall be disclosed by Executive hereunder to preserve and protect the confidentiality of such Confidential Information.  At the request of the Company at any time, Executive agrees to 

		 

		

			7

		

 

		

			 

		

deliver to the Company all Confidential Information that Executive may possess or control. Executive agrees that all Confidential Information of the Company (whether now or hereafter existing) conceived, discovered or made by Executive during the period of Executive’s employment by the Company exclusively belongs to the Company (and not to Executive), and upon request by the Company for specified Confidential Information, Executive will promptly disclose such Confidential Information to the Company and perform all actions reasonably requested by the Company to establish and confirm such exclusive ownership. Affiliates of the Company shall be third party beneficiaries of Executive’s obligations under this ARTICLE V. As a result of Executive’s employment by the Company, Executive may also from time to time have access to, or knowledge of, Confidential Information or Work Product of third parties, such as customers, suppliers, partners, joint venturers, and the like, of the Company and its Affiliates. Executive also agrees to preserve and protect the confidentiality of such third party Confidential Information and Work Product. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Executive may disclose Confidential Information: (a) as such disclosure or use may be required or appropriate in connection with his work as an employee of the Company; (b) when required to do so by a court of law, by any governmental agency having apparent supervisory authority over the business of the Company or by any administrative or legislative body (including a committee thereof) with apparent jurisdiction to order him to divulge, disclose or make accessible such information; provided, however, that in the event disclosure is so required, Executive shall provide the Company with prompt notice of such requirement prior to making any such disclosure, so that the Company may seek an appropriate protective order; or (c) as to such Confidential Information that becomes generally known to the public or trade without his violation of this Section 5.3 or (d) to Executive’s spouse, attorney and/or Executive’s personal tax or financial advisers as and to the extent reasonably necessary and appropriate to advance Executive’s tax, financial and other personal planning.  Upon termination of Executive’s employment by the Company for any reason, Executive promptly shall deliver such Confidential Information and Work Product, and all copies thereof (in whatever form, tangible or intangible), to the Company.    No Company policies or practices, including the sections herein addressing confidentiality obligations, are intended to or shall limit, prevent, impede or interfere in any way with Executive’s right, without prior notice to the Company, to provide information to the government, participate in investigations, testify in proceedings regarding the Company’s past or future conduct or engage in any activities protected under whistle blower statutes.      Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may retain his address book to the extent it only contains contact information and the Company shall cooperate with the Executive to transfer, Executive’s cell phone number to him. 
		

		
			Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall: (i) prohibit Executive from making reports of possible violations of federal law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity in accordance with the provisions of and rules promulgated under Section 21F of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 806 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or of any other whistleblower protection provisions of state or federal law or regulation; or (ii) require notification or prior approval by the Company of any reporting described in clause (i).
		

		
			 
		

		
			5.4Ownership by the Company. If, during Executive’s employment by the Company, Executive creates any work of authorship fixed in any tangible medium of expression that is the subject matter of copyright (such as videotapes, written presentations, or acquisitions, computer programs, electronic mail, voice mail, electronic databases, drawings, maps, architectural renditions, models, manuals, brochures, or the like) relating to the Company’s business, products, or services, whether such work is created solely by Executive or jointly with others (whether during business hours or otherwise and whether on the Company’s premises or otherwise), including any Work Product, the Company shall be deemed the author of such work if the work is prepared by Executive in the scope of Executive’s employment; or, if the work relating to the Company’s business, products or services is not prepared by Executive within the scope of Executive’s employment but is specially ordered by the Company as a contribution to a collective work, as a part of a motion picture or other audiovisual work, as a translation, as a supplementary work, as a compilation, or as an instructional text, then the work shall be considered to be work made for hire and the Company shall be the author of the work. If the work relating to the Company’s business, products, or services is neither prepared by Executive within the scope of Executive’s employment nor a work specially ordered that is deemed to be a work made for hire during Executive’s employment by the Company, then Executive hereby agrees to assign, and by these presents does assign, to the Company all of Executive’s worldwide right, title, and interest in and to such work and all rights of copyright therein.
		

		
			5.5Assistance by Executive. During the period of Executive’s employment by the Company, Executive shall assist the Company and its nominee, at any time, in the protection of the Company’s or its Affiliates’ worldwide right, title and interest in and to Confidential Information and Work Product and the execution of all formal assignment documents requested by the Company or its nominee and the execution of all lawful oaths and applications for patents and registration of copyright in the United States and foreign countries. After Executive’s employment with the Company terminates, at the request from 

		 

		

			8

		

 

		

			 

		

time to time and expense of the Company or its Affiliates, Executive shall reasonably assist the Company and its nominee, at reasonable times and for reasonable periods and for reasonable compensation, in the protection of the Company’s or its Affiliates’ worldwide right, title and interest in and to Confidential Information and Work Product and the execution of all formal assignment documents requested by the Company or its nominee and the execution of all lawful oaths and applications for patents and registration of copyright in the United States and foreign countries.
		

		
			5.6Remedies. Executive acknowledges that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Article V by Executive, and the Company or its Affiliates shall be entitled to enforce the provisions of this ARTICLE V by immediately terminating payments then owing to, or the rights of, Executive under Section 7.1(b)(i) through 7.1(b)(iv) or otherwise upon the occurrence of any such breach and to obtain specific performance and injunctive relief as remedies for such breach or any threatened breach. Such remedies shall not be deemed the exclusive remedies for a breach of this ARTICLE V but shall be in addition to all remedies available at law or in equity, including the recovery of damages from Executive and Executive’s agents. 
		

		
			5.7Immunity from Liability for Confidential Disclosure of Trade Secrets.  Executive shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence either directly or indirectly to a Federal, State or local government official, or to an attorney, solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating, a violation of law.  Executive shall also not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.  If Executive files a lawsuit alleging retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of the law, Executive may disclose the trade secret to Executive’s attorney and use the trade secret in the court proceeding, so long as any document containing the trade secret is filed under seal and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.  This Section 5.7 will govern to the extent it may conflict with any other provision of this Agreement.

			(a)If Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate for any reason described in Section 3.2(a),  3.2(b) or 3.2(c),  pursuant to Executive’s resignation for other than Good Reason, or by Executive’s election not to renew the Initial Term or any Renewal Term in accordance with Section 3.1, then all compensation and all benefits to Executive hereunder shall terminate contemporaneously with such termination of employment, except that Executive shall be entitled to (i) payment of all accrued and unpaid Base Salary accrued but unused vacation and unreimbursed expenses to the Date of Termination, (ii) except in the case of a termination under Section 3.2(c) or by Executive’s election not to renew the Initial Term or any Renewal Term in accordance with Section 3.1, any unpaid Annual Bonus for the calendar year ending prior to the Date of Termination, 

		 

		

			9

		

 

		

			 

		

which amount shall be payable in a lump-sum on or before the date such annual bonuses are paid to executives who have continued employment with the Company (but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year to which such Annual Bonus relates), (iii) reimbursement for all incurred but unreimbursed expenses for which Executive is entitled to reimbursement in accordance with Section 4.5,  (iv) except in the case of a termination under Section 3.2(c), to the extent not already paid, any reimbursement of relocation costs to which the Executive is otherwise entitled in accordance with Section 4.9,  and (v) benefits to which Executive is entitled under the terms of any applicable benefit plan or program.  In addition, if Executive’s employment hereunder is terminated pursuant to Section 3.2(a) or 3.2(b), (i) the amount of any unvested portion of any Annual Equity Awards that have previously been earned but that would have otherwise vested solely by the passage of time within one year following the Date of Termination shall be accelerated on the Date of Termination and settled within 10 days following the Date of Termination, (ii) the unvested portions of the Sign-On Incentive Stock Award will be 100% fully accelerated and settled within 10 days following the Date of Termination, and (iii) if Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company due to death or Disability, Executive shall receive a bonus for the year in which the Date of Termination occurs, calculated on a pro-rata basis to the Date of Termination and paid when other bonuses for such fiscal year are paid.
		

		
			(b)If Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate pursuant to Executive’s resignation for Good Reason, by action of the Company pursuant to Section 3.2(d), or the Company’s  election not to renew the Initial Term or any Renewal Term in accordance with Section 3.1, then all compensation and all benefits to Executive hereunder shall terminate contemporaneously with such termination of employment, except that Executive shall be entitled to payment of all accrued and unpaid Base Salary, accrued but unused vacation and unreimbursed expenses to the Date of Termination, reimbursement for all incurred but unreimbursed expenses for which Executive is entitled to reimbursement in accordance with Section 4.5,  to the extent not already paid, any reimbursement to which the Executive is entitled in accordance with Section 4.9 and subject to Executive’s delivery, within 30 days after the date of Executive’s termination of employment, of an executed release substantially in the form of the release contained at Appendix A (the “Release”) and subject to Executive’s compliance with all of the surviving provisions of this Agreement and non-revocation of the Release, Executive shall receive the following additional compensation and benefits from the Company (but no other compensation or benefits after such termination):
		

		
			(i)the Company shall pay to Executive any unpaid Annual Bonus for the calendar year ending prior to the Date of Termination, which amount shall be payable in a lump-sum on or before the date such annual bonuses are paid to executives who have continued employment with the Company (but in no event later than December 31 following such calendar year);
		

		
			(ii)the Company shall pay to Executive a bonus for the calendar year in which the Date of Termination occurs in an amount equal to the Annual Bonus for such year as determined in good faith by the Board in accordance with the criteria established pursuant to Section 4.2 and based on the Company’s performance for such year, which amount shall be prorated through and including the Date of Termination (based on the ratio of the number of days Executive was employed by the Company during such year to the number of days in such year), payable in a lump-sum between January 1st and March 15th following such calendar year); provided, however, that if this paragraph applies with respect to an Annual Bonus that is intended to constitute performance-based compensation within the meaning of, and for purposes of, Section 162(m) of the Code, then no bonus shall be paid except to the extent the applicable performance criteria have been satisfied as certified by a committee of the Board as required under Section 162(m) of the Code;
		

		
			(iii)the Company shall pay to Executive an amount equal to 2 times the sum of Executive’s Base Salary as of the Date of Termination and the Average Annual Bonus, which amount shall be divided into and paid in twenty four equal consecutive semi-monthly installments payable on the 15th and last day of each month, measuring from the Termination Date, provided that actual payment shall commence on the first payroll date that falls on or immediately follows the 60th day after Executive’s Date of Termination and shall include an amount to cover any missed payments. The right to payment of the installment amounts pursuant to this paragraph shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments for purposes of Section 409A of the Code; and
		

		
			(iv)during the portion, if any, of the 18-month period following the Date of Termination that Executive elects to continue coverage for Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents under the Company’s group health plans under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (COBRA), and/or Sections 601 through 608 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, the Company shall promptly reimburse Executive on a monthly basis for the amount Executive pays to effect and continue such coverage; provided, however, that (x) the amount of such benefits in any one calendar year of such coverage shall not affect the amount of benefits in any other calendar year for which such benefits are to be provided hereunder and (y) Executive’s right to 

		 

		

			10

		

 

		

			 

		

the benefits cannot be liquidated or exchanged for any other benefit.
		

		
			7.2Payment Date under Section 409A of the Code.
		

		
			(a)It is the intention of the parties that benefits payable pursuant to this Agreement are either exempt from or comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and applicable administrative guidance issued thereunder. Accordingly, to the extent there is any ambiguity as to whether one or more provisions of this Agreement would otherwise contravene the applicable requirements or limitations of Section 409A, then those provisions shall be interpreted and applied in a manner that ensures a payment is exempt from or otherwise does not result in a violation of the applicable requirements or limitations of Section 409A. In no event may Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of a payment. Neither the Company nor its directors, officers, employees or advisers shall be liable to Executive (or any individual claiming a benefit through Executive) for any tax, interest or penalties Executive may owe as a result of compensation or benefits paid under this Agreement, and the Company shall have no obligation to indemnify or otherwise protect Executive from the obligation to pay any taxes pursuant to Section 409A.  The parties agree not to take any position inconsistent with the preceding sentence for any reporting purposes, whether internal or external, and to cause their Affiliates, agents, successors, and assigns not to take any such inconsistent position.    
		

		
			(b)Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, no payments or benefits to which Executive becomes entitled under this ARTICLE VII and which constitute deferred compensation within the meaning of Code Section 409A shall be made or paid to Executive prior to the earlier of (i) the first business day of the seventh month following the date of Executive’s termination of employment or (ii) the date of Executive’s death (such date, the “Section 409A Payment Date”), if (x) Executive is deemed on termination of employment a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Section 409A of the Code, (y) the stock of the Parent Company or any successor Entity is publicly traded on an established market and (z) such delayed commencement is otherwise required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Code Section 409A(a)(2). Upon the expiration of the applicable deferral period, all payments deferred pursuant to this provision shall be paid in a lump sum to Executive, and any remaining payments, benefits or reimbursements due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.
		

		
			(c)Each separately identifiable amount and each installment payment to which Executive is entitled to payment shall be deemed to be a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A.

			11

		

 

		

			 

		

solicitation provisions of this ARTICLE VIII: (i) in consideration for the Confidential Information provided by the Company to Executive pursuant to ARTICLE V; (ii) as part of the consideration for the compensation and benefits to be paid to Executive hereunder; (iii) to protect the trade secrets and confidential information of the Company or its Affiliates disclosed or entrusted to Executive by the Company or its Affiliates or created or developed by Executive for the Company or its Affiliates, the business goodwill of the Company or its Affiliates developed through the efforts of Executive and/or the business opportunities disclosed or entrusted to Executive by the Company or its Affiliates; and (iv) as an additional incentive for the Company to enter into this Agreement.

			(b)Notwithstanding the restrictions contained in Section 8.2(a), Executive may own an aggregate of not more than 2% of the outstanding stock of any class of any corporation engaged in a Competing Business, if such stock is listed on a national securities exchange or regularly traded in the over-the-counter market by a member of a national securities exchange, without violating the provisions of Section 8.2(a) or be an investor in a private equity or similar fund holding not more than 2% of funds for investment, provided that the Executive does not have the power, directly or indirectly, to control or direct the management or affairs of any such corporation or fund and is not involved in the management of such corporation. In addition, the restrictions contained in Section 8.2(a) shall not preclude Executive from being employed by a financial institution so long as Executive’s principal duties at such institution are not directly and primarily related to the Business.
		

		
			(c)Executive further expressly covenants and agrees that during the Prohibited Period, Executive will not (i) engage or employ, or solicit or contact with a view to the engagement or employment of, any Person who is an officer or employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates or (ii) canvass, solicit, approach or entice away or cause to be canvassed, solicited, approached or enticed away from the Company or any of its Affiliates any Person who or which is a customer of any of such Entities during the period during which Executive is employed by the Company.

			(d)Executive may seek the written consent of the Company, which may be withheld for good reason, to waive the provisions of this ARTICLE VIII on a case-by-case basis.
		

		
			(e)The restrictions contained in Section 8.2 shall not apply to any product or services that the Company provided during Executive’s employment but that the Company no longer provides at the Date of Termination.
		

		
			8.3Relief. Executive acknowledges that money damages would not be a  sufficient remedy for any breach of this ARTICLE VIII by Executive, and the Company and/or its Affiliates shall be entitled to enforce the provisions of this ARTICLE VIII by immediately terminating payments then owing to Executive under Section 7.1(b)(i) through (iv) or otherwise upon the occurrence of any such breach and to obtain specific performance and injunctive relief as remedies for such breach or any threatened breach. Such remedies shall not be deemed the exclusive remedies for a breach of this ARTICLE VIII but shall be in addition to all remedies available at law or in equity, including the recovery of damages from Executive. 
		

		
			8.4Reasonableness; Enforcement. Executive hereby represents to the Company that Executive has read and understands, and agrees to be bound by, the terms of this ARTICLE VIII.  Executive and the Company understand and agree that the purpose of the provisions of this ARTICLE VIII is to protect the legitimate business interests and goodwill of the Company.  Executive acknowledges that the limitations as to time, geographical area and scope of activity to be restrained as contained in this ARTICLE VIII are the result of arm’s-length bargaining and are fair and reasonable and do not impose any greater restraint than is necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company in light of (a) the nature and wide geographic scope of the operations of the Business, (b) Executive’s level of control over and contact with the Business in all jurisdictions in which it is conducted, (c) the fact that the Business is conducted throughout the Restricted Area and (d) the amount of compensation and Confidential Information that Executive is receiving in connection with the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this ARTICLE VIII be enforced to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements, whether now or hereafter in effect and therefore, to the extent 

		 

		

			12

		

 

		

			 

		

permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, Executive and the Company hereby waive any provision of applicable Legal Requirements that would render any provision of this ARTICLE VIII invalid or unenforceable.
		

		
			8.5Reformation. The Company and Executive agree that the foregoing restrictions are reasonable under the circumstances and that any breach of the covenants contained in this ARTICLE VIII would cause irreparable injury to the Company and its Affiliates. Executive understands that the foregoing restrictions may limit Executive’s ability to engage in certain businesses anywhere in the Restricted Area during the Prohibited Period, but acknowledges that Executive will receive sufficiently high remuneration and other benefits from the Company to justify such restriction. Further, Executive acknowledges that Executive’s skills are such that Executive can be gainfully employed in non-competitive employment, and that the agreement not to compete will not prevent Executive from earning a living. Nevertheless, if any of the aforesaid restrictions are found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unreasonable, or overly broad as to geographic area or time, or otherwise unenforceable, the parties intend for the restrictions herein set forth to be modified by the court making such determination so as to be reasonable and enforceable and, as so modified, to be fully enforced. By agreeing to this contractual modification prospectively at this time, the Company and Executive intend to make this provision enforceable under the law or laws of all applicable States, Provinces and other jurisdictions so that the entire agreement not to compete and this Agreement as prospectively modified shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be rendered void or illegal. Such modification shall not affect the payments made to Executive under this Agreement.
		

		
			ARTICLE IX

			(a)Unless the parties agree on the appointment of a single arbitrator, the dispute shall be referred to one arbitrator appointed by the AAA. The arbitrator will set the rules and timing of the arbitration, but will generally follow the employment rules of the AAA and this Agreement where same are applicable and shall provide for a reasoned opinion.
		

		
			(b)The arbitration hearing will in no event take place more than 180 days after the appointment of the arbitrator.
		

		
			(c)The mediation and the arbitration will take place in Houston, Texas unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

			(e)All costs and expenses of the mediation and arbitration shall be borne equally by the Company and Executive; provided that each party shall be responsible for his or its own attorney fees.
		

		
			Executive and the Company explicitly recognize that no provision of this ARTICLE IX shall prevent the Company from taking any action to enforce its rights or to resolve any dispute relating to ARTICLE V or ARTICLE VIII in a court of law. 
		

		
			Any dispute over whether Cause exists shall be determined in accordance with this ARTICLE IX on a de novo basis based on the underlying facts without any deference given to the determination of the Board or any right of the Board to make “a reasonable and good faith determination”.

			(a)Save and except for any Proceeding (as herein defined) brought by (i) Executive’s  former employer, including any Affiliate thereof (collectively “Former Employer”), alleging that Executive’s employment hereunder violates any agreement between Executive and such Former Employer, or (ii) Executive or his estate (other than to enforce Executive’s rights to indemnification), if Executive is made a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer or employee of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, member, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether or not the basis of such Proceeding is Executive’s alleged action in an official capacity while serving as a director, officer, member, employee or agent, Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company to the fullest extent legally permitted or authorized by the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws or resolutions of the board of directors of the Company and by the laws of the State of Delaware against all cost, expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by Executive in connection therewith, and such indemnification shall continue as to Executive even if he has ceased to be a director, member, employee or agent of the Company or other Entity and shall inure to the benefit of Executive’s heirs, executors and administrators. In order to be entitled to the above described indemnification Executive must provide prompt written notice to the Company of such Proceeding and the Company (and its insurers) shall be entitled to defend such Proceeding and to enter into such settlement agreements that the Company and its insurers believe is reasonable and necessary so long as Executive is not required to admit any misconduct or liability, nor required to pay any portion of such settlement. To the extent that the Company fails to provide a defense for all claims raised in any Proceeding after receiving notice thereof, the Company to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law shall advance to Executive all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by him in connection with a Proceeding within 20 days after receipt by the Company of a written request for such advance. Such request shall include an undertaking by Executive to repay the amount of such advance if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified against such costs and expenses. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.3 to the contrary, unless an earlier payment date is specified above, Executive shall be paid (or paid on Executive’s behalf), in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv), all amounts to which Executive is entitled under this Section 10.3 promptly but no later than the end of the second calendar year following the calendar year in which the indemnifiable expense is incurred.
		

		
			

		 

		

			14

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(b)Neither the failure of the Company (including its board of directors, independent legal counsel or stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any Proceeding concerning payment of amounts claimed by Executive under Section 10.3(a)  that indemnification of Executive is proper because he has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor determination by the Company (including its boards of directors, independent legal counsel or stockholders) that Executive has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that Executive has not met the applicable standard of conduct.
		

		
			(c)The Company will itself and will cause the Parent Company to, continue and maintain a directors and officers’ liability insurance policy covering Executive to the extent the Company or the Parent Company provides such coverage for other of their directors and other executive officers during the term of Executive’s employment with the Company and thereafter until the expiration of all applicable statutes of limitations.
		

		
			(d)If the Company or the Parent Company enters into an indemnification agreement with any of its directors or executive officers, the Company (or, if the Parent Company, will cause the Parent Company) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law will enter into an indemnification agreement with Executive on terms and conditions no less favorable than those set forth in any such indemnification agreement.
		

		
			10.4No Waiver. No failure by either party hereto at any time to provide notice of any breach by the other party of, or to require compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time.
		

		
			10.5Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, then the invalidity or unenforceability of that provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, and all other provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
		

		
			10.6Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same Agreement.
		

		
			10.7Withholding of Taxes and Other Employee Deductions. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Company may withhold from any benefits and payments made pursuant to this Agreement all federal, foreign, state, city and other taxes and withholdings as may be required pursuant to any law or governmental regulation or ruling and all other customary deductions made with respect to the Company’s employees generally.
		

		
			10.8Headings. The Section headings have been inserted for purposes of convenience and shall not be used for interpretive purposes.
		

		
			10.9Gender and Plurals. Wherever the context so requires, the masculine gender includes the feminine or neuter, and the singular number includes the plural and conversely.
		

		
			10.10No Mitigation / No Offset. Executive shall have no obligation to seek other employment to mitigate any severance or other payments due hereunder.  Any amounts earned by Executive from other employment shall not offset amounts due hereunder.
		

		
			10.11Successors.  
		

		
			(a)This Agreement is personal to Executive and shall not be assignable by Executive otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The rights, benefits and obligations of Executive hereunder shall not be subject to voluntary or involuntary assignment, alienation or transfer, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the Company. In addition, any payment owed to Executive hereunder after the date of Executive’s death shall be paid to Executive’s estate. 
		

		
			(b)This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns,  provided that the Agreement or the obligation hereunder may not be assigned except to a successor to all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the Parent Company provided that an assumption thereof in writing is delivered to Executive. In addition to any obligations imposed by law upon any successor to the Company, the Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, amalgamation, scheme of arrangement, exchange offer, operation of law or otherwise (including any purchase, merger, amalgamation, Change in Control or other Corporate Transaction involving the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company)), to all or substantially all of the Company’s business and/or the Company’s Assets, if applicable, to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place; or the Company will require any such successor to guarantee the obligations of the Company under this Agreement.  As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or assets as 

		 

		

			15

		

 

		

			 

		

provided above. 
		

		
			10.12Term. Termination of Executive’s employment under this Agreement shall not affect any right or obligation of any party which is accrued or vested prior to such termination. Without limiting the scope of the preceding sentence, the provisions of Articles I,  V,  VI,  VII,  VIII, IX and X shall survive any termination of the employment relationship and/or of this Agreement.
		

		
			10.13Entire Agreement. Except as provided in any signed written agreement contemporaneously or hereafter executed by the Company and Executive, this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with regard to the subject matter hereof, and contains all the covenants, promises, representations, warranties and agreements between the parties with respect to employment of Executive by the Company. Without limiting the scope of the preceding sentence, all understandings and agreements preceding the date of execution of this Agreement and relating to the subject matter hereof are hereby null and void and of no further force and effect.
		

		
			10.14Modification; Waiver. Any modification to or waiver of this Agreement will be effective only if it is in writing and signed by the parties.
		

		
			10.15Actions by the Board. Any and all determinations or other actions required of the Board hereunder that relate specifically to Executive’s employment by the Company or the terms and conditions of such employment shall be made by the members of the Board other than Executive if Executive is a member of the Board, and Executive shall not have any right to vote, participate or decide upon any such matter.
		

		
			10.16Section 280G Modified Cutback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any payment, distribution or provision of a benefit by the Company or the Parent Company to or for the benefit of Executive, whether paid or payable, distributed or distributable or provided or to be provided pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (a “Payment”), (a) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, or any interest or penalties with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest or penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”) and (b) the net after-tax amount of such Payments, after Executive has paid all taxes due thereon (including, without limitation, the Excise Tax), would be less than the net after-tax amount of all such Payments otherwise due to the Executive in the aggregate if such Payments were reduced to an amount equal to 2.99 times the  Executive’s “base amount” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code), then the aggregate amount of such Payments payable to the Executive shall be reduced to an amount that will equal 2.99 times the Executive’s base amount.  To the extent any Payments are required to be so reduced, the Payments due to the Executive shall be reduced in the following order, unless otherwise agreed and such agreement is in compliance with Section 409A of the Code: (i) Payments that are payable in cash, with amounts that are payable last reduced first; (ii) Payments due in respect of any equity or equity derivatives included at their full value under Section 280G of the Code (rather than their accelerated value); (iii) Payments due in respect of any equity or equity derivatives valued at accelerated value under Section 280G of the Code, with the highest values reduced first (as such values are determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24); and (iv) all other non-cash benefits.  The determination of any reduction in Payments in accordance with this Section 10.17 shall be made by the Company’s independent public accountants or another firm designated by the Company and acceptable to the Executive acting reasonably. 
		

		
			10.17Changes Due to Compliance with Applicable Law.  Executive understands that certain laws, as well as rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (including without limitation under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002) and/or by securities exchanges, do and will require the Company to recoup, and Executive to repay, incentive compensation payable hereunder under the circumstances set forth under such laws, rules and regulations. Such requirements will be set forth from time to time in policies adopted by the Company (so-called “clawback” policies) and Executive acknowledges receipt of the Company’s current clawback policy.  Executive acknowledges that amounts paid or payable pursuant to this Agreement as incentive compensation or otherwise by the Company shall be subject to clawback to the extent necessary to comply with such laws, rules, regulations and/or policy, which clawback may include forfeiture, repurchase and/or recoupment of amounts paid or payable hereunder, and Executive agrees to repay such amounts (whether or not still employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates), as required by such laws, rules, regulations or policy.  Executive shall repay the Company in cash in immediately available funds within 60 days of demand for payment by the Company or as otherwise agreed by the Company in its sole discretion.
		

		
			Any such clawback shall not provide Executive any termination rights or other rights to payment under this Agreement (including no right to terminate for Good Reason), nor constitute a breach or violation of this Agreement by the Company.  The Executive hereby consents to any changes to the current policy that are adopted to comply with applicable law, rules or regulations (including by securities exchanges). Further, if determined necessary or appropriate by the Board, Executive agrees to enter into an amendment to this Agreement or a separate written agreement with the Company to comply with such laws, 

		 

		

			16

		

 

		

			 

		

rules and regulations thereunder if required thereby or determined appropriate by the Board in its reasonable discretion.
		

		
			10.18Cooperation with Litigation. Notwithstanding this Agreement, Executive agrees to reasonably cooperate with Company by making Executive reasonably available, at the Company’s reasonable request, to testify on behalf of the Company or any of its Affiliates in any action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, and to assist the Company or any of its Affiliates in any such action, suit, or proceeding by providing information to and meeting and consulting with Company any of its Affiliates or any of their counsel or representatives upon reasonable request, provided that such cooperation and assistance shall not materially interfere with Executive's then current activities (to the extent the Executive is no longer employed by the Company) and shall be done in a manner to limit any interference with other activities and any required travel and that the Company agrees to reimburse Executive for all reasonable out of pocket expenses reasonably incurred in connection with such cooperation by Executive.

			APPENDIX A
		

		
			RELEASE AGREEMENT
		

		
			This Release Agreement (this “Agreement”) constitutes the release referred to in that certain Employment Agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) dated as of [Insert Date], 2017, by and between Gary W. Ferrera (“Executive”) and Cardtronics USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).
		

		
			(a)For good and valuable consideration, including the Company’s provision of certain payments and benefits to Executive in accordance with Section 7.1(b) of the Employment Agreement, Executive hereby releases, discharges and forever acquits the Company, Cardtronics plc, their Affiliates and subsidiaries and the past, present and future stockholders, members, partners, directors, managers, employees, agents, attorneys, heirs, legal representatives in their capacities as such, successors and assigns of the foregoing, in their personal and representative capacities (collectively, the “Company Parties”), from liability for, and hereby waives, any and all claims, damages, or causes of action of any kind for Executive’s employment with any Company Party, the termination of such employment, and any other acts or omissions on or prior to the date of this Agreement including without limitation any alleged violation through the date of this Agreement of: (i) the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended; (ii) Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; (iii) the Civil Rights Act of 1991; (iv) Section 1981 through 1988 of Title 42 of the United States Code, as amended; (v) the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended; (vi) the Immigration Reform Control Act, as amended; (vii) the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended; (viii) the Occupational Safety and Health Act, as amended; (ix) the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; (x) any state anti-discrimination law; (xi) any state wage and hour law; (xii) any other local, state or federal law, regulation or ordinance; (xiii) any public policy, contract, tort, or common law claim; (xiv) any allegation for costs, fees, or other expenses including attorneys’ fees incurred in these matters; (xv) any and all rights, benefits or claims Executive may have under any employment contract, incentive compensation plan or stock option plan with any Company Party or to any ownership interest in any Company Party except as expressly provided in, or implied by the Employment Agreement and any stock option or other equity compensation agreement between Executive and the Company; and (xvi) any claim for compensation or benefits of any kind not expressly set forth in the Employment Agreement or any such stock option or other equity compensation agreement (collectively, the “Released Claims”). In no event shall the Released Claims include (a) any claim which arises after the date of this Agreement, (b) any claim to vested benefits under an employee benefit plan, (c) any claims pursuant to any restricted stock unit or other equity or equity-based award agreement between any Company Party and Executive, (d) any claims for contractual payments under the Employment Agreement, including without limitation any claim to indemnification under the Employment Agreement, or any indemnification agreement between any Company Party and Executive, or (e) any other rights to indemnification or to director and/or officer liability insurance. Notwithstanding this release of liability, nothing in this Agreement prevents Executive from filing any non-legally waivable claim (including a challenge to the validity of this Agreement) with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission  (“EEOC”) or comparable state or local agency or participating in any investigation or proceeding conducted by the EEOC or comparable state or local agency; however, Executive understands and agrees that Executive is waiving any and all rights to recover any monetary or personal relief or recovery as a result of such EEOC, or comparable state or local agency proceeding or subsequent legal actions. This Agreement is not intended to indicate that any such claims exist or that, if they do exist, they are meritorious. Rather, Executive is simply agreeing that, in exchange for the consideration recited in the first sentence of this paragraph, any and all potential claims of this nature that Executive may have against the Company Parties as of the date of this Agreement, regardless of whether they actually exist, are expressly settled, compromised and waived. By signing this Agreement, Executive is bound by it. Anyone who succeeds to Executive’s rights and responsibilities, such as heirs or the executor of Executive’s estate, is also bound by this Agreement. This release also applies to any claims brought by any person or agency or class action under which Executive may have a right or benefit. THIS RELEASE INCLUDES MATTERS ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE SOLE OR PARTIAL NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER GROSS OR SIMPLE) OR OTHER FAULT, INCLUDING STRICT LIABILITY, OF ANY OF THE COMPANY PARTIES.
		

		
			(b)Executive agrees not to bring or join, but may defend, any lawsuit against any of the Company Parties in any court relating to any of the Released Claims. Executive represents that Executive has not brought or joined any lawsuit or filed any charge or claim against any of the Company Parties in any court or before any government agency and has made no assignment of any rights Executive has asserted or may have against any of the Company Parties to any person or entity, in each case, with respect to any Released Claims.
		

		
			(c)By executing and delivering this Agreement, Executive acknowledges that:
		

		
			(i)Executive has carefully read this Agreement;
		

		
			(ii)Executive has had at least 21 days to consider this Agreement before the execution and delivery

hereof to the Company;
		

		
			(iii)Executive has been and hereby is advised in writing that Executive may, at Executive’s option, discuss this Agreement with an attorney of Executive’s choice and that Executive has had adequate opportunity to do so; and
		

		
			(iv)Executive fully understands the final and binding effect of this Agreement; the only promises made to Executive to sign this Agreement are those stated in the Employment Agreement and herein; and Executive is signing this Agreement voluntarily and of Executive’s own free will, and that Executive understands and agrees to each of the terms of this Agreement.
		

		
			Notwithstanding the initial effectiveness of this Agreement, Executive may revoke the delivery (and therefore the effectiveness) of this Agreement within the seven day period beginning on the date Executive delivers this Agreement to the Company (such seven day period being referred to herein as the “Release Revocation Period”). To be effective, such revocation must be in writing signed by Executive and must be delivered to the address of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company before 11:59 p.m., Houston, Texas time, on the last day of the Release Revocation Period. If an effective revocation is delivered in the foregoing manner and timeframe, this Agreement shall be of no force or effect and shall be null and void ab initio. No consideration shall be paid if this Agreement is revoked by Executive in the foregoing manner.

The Credits
		

		
			Section 2.01  Commitments.    Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees to make Revolving Loans in Dollars or Alternative Currencies to the Borrowers from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Commitment, subject to Sections 1.05 and 2.10;  provided that (a) Revolving Loans in Canadian Dollars shall be made only to the Canadian Borrower or a U.S. Borrower and (b) with respect to Revolving Loans in a Non-Pro Rata Alternative Currency, only the Lenders that are designated on Schedule 1.01 as having agreed to fund Revolving Loans in such Non-Pro Rata Alternative Currency shall participate in making such
		

		
			Revolving Loans, notwithstanding that this results in such Lenders having amounts owing by the Borrowers on a non-pro rata basis.  Following the advance of Revolving Loans in a Non-Pro Rata 

		 

		

			34

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

Alternative Currency, the provisions of Section 2.02(e) shall apply to subsequent Revolving Loans in Dollars and Agreed Alternative Currencies, to the extent provided therein.  Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans.
		

		
			Section 2.02  Loans and Borrowings
		

		
			(a)Each Revolving Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Revolving Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments.  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)Subject to Section 2.13,  (a) each Revolving Borrowing requested in Dollars shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans as the relevant Borrower may request in accordance herewith, (b) each Revolving Borrowing requested in Canadian Dollars shall be comprised entirely of Canadian Prime Rate Loans or CDOR Loans as the relevant Borrower may request in accordance herewith, (c) each Revolving Borrowing requested in Australian Dollars shall be comprised entirely of BBSY Loans, (d) each Revolving Borrowing requested in Rand shall be comprised entirely of JIBAR Loans and (e) each Revolving Borrowing requested in any other Alternative Currency shall be comprised entirely of Eurocurrency Loans.  Each Swingline Loan (a) denominated in Dollars shall be an ABR Loan, (b) denominated in Canadian Dollars shall be a Canadian Prime Rate Loan and (c) denominated in any other Alternative Currency shall bear interest based upon the applicable Swingline Rate.  Each Lender may make any Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the relevant Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  
		

		
			(c)At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000.  At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency, any CDOR Borrowing, any BBSY Borrowing or any JIBAR Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Equivalent Amount of $100,000 in the relevant currency and not less than the Equivalent Amount of $1,000,000 in the relevant currency;  provided that a Eurocurrency Borrowing, BBSY Borrowing or JIBAR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to (i) that which is required to repay a Swingline Loan in the same Alternative Currency or (ii) that which is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement in the same Alternative Currency as contemplated by Section 2.05(e).  At the time that each ABR Revolving Borrowing or Canadian Prime Rate Revolving Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Equivalent Amount of $500,000; provided that an ABR Revolving Borrowing or a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to (i) the entire unused balance of the total Commitments, (ii) that 
		

		
			which is required to repay a Swingline Loan in the same currency, or (iii) that which is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement in the same currency as contemplated by Section 2.05(e).  Borrowings of more than one Type and Class may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of 25 Revolving Borrowings 

		 

		

			35

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

(other than ABR Revolving Borrowings and Canadian Prime Rate Revolving Borrowings) outstanding.
		

		
			(d)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Borrower shall be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Termination Date.
		

		
			(e)If a Revolving Borrowing is made in a Non-Pro Rata Alternative Currency, as contemplated by Section 2.01, subsequent Revolving Loans requested in Dollars and Agreed Alternative Currencies shall be advanced first by Lenders that did not fund such Revolving Loans included in such earlier Borrowing until such time as the amount owing to each of the Lenders in respect of the outstanding Revolving Loans is equal to its Applicable Percentage of the aggregate Commitments.  Thereafter, such Revolving Loans will be advanced by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages of the aggregate Commitments.
		

		
			Section 2.03  Requests for Borrowings.    To request a Revolving Loan, the relevant Borrower shall provide notice of such request by telephone in the case of a Borrowing in Dollars and in writing (including by email) in the case of a Borrowing in an Alternative Currency (a) in the case of a CDOR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing in Dollars, to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m., Local Time, three (3) Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing, (b) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing in an Alternative Currency, to the Alternative Currency Agent not later than 12:00 p.m., Local Time, three (3) Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing, (c) in the case of a BBSY Borrowing, to the Alternative Currency Agent not later than 12:00 p.m., Local Time, three (3) Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing, (d) in the case of a JIBAR Borrowing, to the Alternative Currency Agent not later than 12:00 p.m., Local Time, four (4) Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing, (e) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing and (f) in the case of a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing, to the Alternative Currency Agent not later than 12:00 p.m., Local Time, one (1) Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing.

			36

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(v)the location and number of the relevant Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed.

Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.
		

		
			Section 2.04  Swingline Loans.
		

		
			(a)Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans in Dollars or any Alternative Currency to the Borrowers from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the Swingline Exposure exceeding $50,000,000 or (ii) the Swingline Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding its Commitment, in each case, subject to Sections 1.05 and 2.10;  provided that (A) Swingline Loans in Canadian Dollars shall be made only to the Canadian Borrower or a U.S. Borrower and (B) the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan.  Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.  Each Swingline Loan shall be in an amount that is not less than $100,000 or the Equivalent Amount in an Alternative Currency.
		

		
			(b)To request a Swingline Loan, the relevant Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy), not later than (i) 3:00 p.m., Local Time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan in Dollars, (ii) 12:00 p.m., Local Time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan in Canadian Dollars or (iii) 11:00 a.m., Local Time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan in an Alternative Currency.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the requested Swingline Loan and the requested Alternative Currency, if such Swingline Loan is to be made in an Alternative Currency.  The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from a Borrower.  The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the relevant Borrower to such account or accounts of such Borrower designated by it in its Borrowing Request (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e), by remittance to the Issuing Lender) by (i) 3:30 p.m., Local Time, on the requested date of any Swingline Loan in Dollars or Canadian Dollars or (ii) 2:00 p.m., Local Time, on the requested date of any Swingline Loan in any other Alternative Currency.
		

		
			

		 

		

			37

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(c)The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m., Local Time, on any Business Day require the Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding.  Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which the Lenders will participate.  Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans.  Each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans.  Such payments by the Lenders shall be made in the same currency as such Swingline Loan or Loans.    Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its 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 an 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.  Each 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 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 Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrowers of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender.  Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from any Borrower (or other party on behalf of any Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid by the Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to such Borrower for any reason.  The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrowers of any default in the payment thereof.
		

		
			Section 2.05  Letters of Credit.
		

		
			(a)General.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) each Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit in Dollars or any Alternative Currency (other than Canadian Dollars) and (ii) the Canadian Borrower and each U.S. Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit in Canadian Dollars, in each case, for its own account or the account of any of its Subsidiaries, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender and at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period.  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 any Borrower to, or entered into by any Borrower with, the Issuing Lender relating to any 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 Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the relevant Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by 

		 

		

			38

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Lender) to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender at least three Business Days (or such shorter period acceptable to the Issuing Lender) in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the 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 Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof, the requested Alternative Currency, if such Letter of Credit is to be issued in an Alternative Currency, and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit.  If requested by the Issuing Lender, the relevant Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the standard form of the Issuing Lender in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit.  A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $30,000,000 and (ii) the total Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the total Commitments, in each case, subject to Sections 1.05 and 2.10.
		

		
			(c)Expiration Date.  Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Termination Date; provided,  however, that any Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (ii) above).
		

		
			(d)Participations.  By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Lender, or the Lenders, the Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit.  In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender and not reimbursed by the relevant Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the relevant Borrower for any reason.  Such payments shall be made in the same currency in which such Letter of Credit was issued.    Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be 
		

		
			affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an 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 Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit for the relevant Borrower’s own account or the account of any of its Subsidiaries, such Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the 

		 

		

			39

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

Administrative Agent an amount equal to, and in the same currency as, such LC Disbursement not later than (i) in the case of an LC Disbursement in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if such Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 9:00 a.m., Local Time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by such Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that such Borrower receives such notice or (ii) in the case of an LC Disbursement in any other Alternative Currency, not later than 1:00 p.m., Local Time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that such Borrower received such notice; provided that, (A) in the case of an LC Disbursement in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, if such LC Disbursement is not less than the Equivalent Amount of $100,000, such Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request, in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.04, that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or a Canadian Prime Rate Revolving Borrowing, as applicable, or a Swingline Loan in the amount of such payment and, to the extent so financed, such Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan and (B) in the case of an LC Disbursement in an Alternative Currency, if such LC Disbursement is not less than the Equivalent Amount of $100,000, such Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request, in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.04, that such payment be financed with a Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan in the same currency in the amount of such payment and, to the extent so financed, such Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan.  If the relevant Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the relevant Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof.  Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the relevant 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 Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders.  Such payments by the Lenders shall be made in the currency of the applicable LC Disbursement.  Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the relevant Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Lender, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Lender as their interests may appear.  Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of Revolving Borrowing or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the relevant Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.
		

		
			(f)Obligations Absolute.  Each Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC 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 Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply 

		 

		

			40

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

with the terms of such 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, such Borrower’s obligations hereunder.  Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Lender from liability to a Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Law) suffered by such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that are caused by (a) the Issuing Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof, or (b) the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.  The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on the part of the Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination.  In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof (except with respect to gross negligence, willful misconduct and bad faith in which case the immediately prior sentence will apply), the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender 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 Letter of Credit.
		

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

		
			(h)Interim Interest.  If the Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the relevant Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the relevant Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans in the case of an LC Disbursement in Dollars and at the rate per annum then applicable to Revolving Loans in the relevant currency in the case of an LC Disbursement in an Alternative Currency; provided that, if the relevant Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, then Section 2.12(e) shall apply.  Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Lender except 

		 

		

			41

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Lender shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.
		

		
			(i)Replacement of the Issuing Lender.  The Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Lender.  At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Parent shall pay, or shall cause to be paid, all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(b).  From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require.  After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.
		

		
			(j)Cash Collateralization.  If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Parent receives notice from the Administrative Agent, the Majority Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, the Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph), the Borrowers shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to, and in the same currencies as, the aggregate undrawn amount of all Letters of Credit as of such date and the aggregate amount of all LC Disbursements in respect of Letters of Credit that have not been reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrowers or converted into a Loan pursuant to Section 2.05(e) as of such date and, in each case, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Section 7.01.  Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement.  The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account.  Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and discretion of the Administrative Agent (but, if so made, shall be limited to overnight bank loans or investments generally comparable to those described in clauses (a) through (e) of Permitted Investments) and at the Borrowers’ risk and expense, 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 the Issuing Lender for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the LC Exposure at such time or, subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure, be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement.  If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder, such amount (to the extent not applied 

		 

		

			42

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.
		

		
			(k)Existing Letters of Credit.  The Existing Letters of Credit shall be Letters of Credit hereunder for all purposes.
		

		
			(l)Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries.  Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary of a Borrower, such Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Issuing Lender hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit.  Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of any of its Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of such Borrower, and that such Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the business of such Subsidiaries.
		

		
			Section 2.06  Funding of Borrowings.
		

		
			(a)Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds (i) in the case of Loans in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, by 2:00 p.m., Local Time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders and (ii) in the case of Loans in any other Alternative Currency, by 2:00 p.m., Local Time, to the account of the Alternative Currency 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 relevant Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to such account or accounts of such Borrower designated by it in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that Revolving Borrowings or Swingline Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Lender.
		

		
			(b)Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant 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 applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such 
		

		
			corresponding amount with interest thereon plus any customary charges paid by the Alternative Currency Agent to its correspondent bank, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such 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 (including without limitation the Overnight Alternative Currency Rate in the case of Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency) or (ii) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing.  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 Eurocurrency Borrowing, a CDOR Borrowing, a BBSY Borrowing or a JIBAR Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request.  Thereafter, the relevant Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, a CDOR Borrowing, a BBSY Borrowing or a JIBAR Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section.  The relevant 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 relevant Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent or the Alternative Currency Agent, as applicable, of such election by telephone in the case of the Administrative Agent and in writing in the case of the Alternative Currency Agent by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election.  Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent or the Alternative Currency Agent, as applicable, of a written Interest Election Request signed by the relevant 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;
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			44

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(iii)whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing, a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing, a Eurocurrency Borrowing, a CDOR Borrowing, a BBSY Borrowing or a JIBAR Borrowing; and
		

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

		
			If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing, CDOR Borrowing, BBSY Borrowing or JIBAR Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the relevant 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 affected Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.
		

		
			(e)If the relevant Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing, a CDOR Borrowing, a BBSY Borrowing or a JIBAR Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall (i) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars, be converted to an ABR Borrowing, (ii) in the case of a CDOR Borrowing, be converted to a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing and (iii) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in any other Alternative Currency, automatically continue as a Eurocurrency Borrowing, a CDOR Borrowing, a BBSY Borrowing or a JIBAR Borrowing, as the case may be, with an interest period of one month.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Majority Lenders, so notifies the Parent, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing in Dollars may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing, (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing in Dollars shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (iii) no outstanding Borrowing in Canadian Dollars may be converted to or continued as a CDOR Borrowing and (iv) unless repaid, each CDOR Borrowing shall be converted to a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.
		

		
			Section 2.08  Termination and Reduction of Commitments.  
		

		
			(a)Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Termination Date.
		

		
			(b)The Parent may at any time terminate or from time to time reduce the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000 and (ii) the Parent shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the total Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Commitments.
		

		
			

		 

		

			45

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(c)The Parent shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof.  Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof.  Each notice delivered by the Parent pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable.  Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent.  Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments.
		

		
			Section 2.09  Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.  Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan made to such Borrower on the Termination Date, and (ii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan made to such Borrower on the Termination Date; provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made, the Borrowers shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding that are denominated in the same currency as such Revolving Borrowing and the proceeds of such Revolving Borrowing shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to repay such outstanding Swingline Loans.
		

		
			(a)Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each 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.
		

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

		
			(c)The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and provided further, that to the extent there is any inconsistency between the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and the entries in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.04(b)(iv), the entries in the Register shall control.
		

		
			(d)Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note.  In such event, the applicable Borrowers 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 after 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			46

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			assignment pursuant to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein.
		

		
			Section 2.10  Prepayment of Loans.
		

		
			(a)Each Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing selected by it in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with this paragraph.  The relevant Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing in Dollars or a CDOR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Revolving Borrowing or a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, on the date of prepayment, (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the date of prepayment, (iv) in the case of prepayment of a JIBAR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, four (4) Business Days before the date of such payment and shall provide written notice thereof to the Alternative Currency Agent at the same time or (v) in the case of prepayment of a Borrowing in any other Alternative Currency, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment and shall provide written notice thereof to the Alternative Currency Agent at the same time.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid.  Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing (other than a Swingline Loan), the Administrative Agent shall advise the appropriate Lenders of the contents thereof.  Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02.  Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied to reduce pro rata all Loans comprising the designated Borrowing being prepaid.    Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12 and any amounts required to be paid under Section 2.15.
		

		
			(b)If at any time, (i) other than as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the Revolving Credit Exposures (calculated in accordance with Section 1.05 as of the most recent Computation Date) exceed the total Commitments, or (ii) solely as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the Revolving Credit Exposures (calculated in accordance with Section 1.05 as of the most recent Computation Date) exceed 105% of the total Commitments, the Borrowers shall in each case, within three (3) Business Days after the relevant Computation Date, repay Borrowings or cash collateralize LC Exposure in an account with the Administrative Agent, as applicable, in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to eliminate such excess condition.
		

		
			Section 2.11  Fees.
		

		
			(a)The Parent shall pay, or shall cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Commitment Fee Rate on the 
		

		
			

		 

		

			47

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			daily amount of the unused Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which the Commitments terminate.  Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year during the Availability Period and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof.  All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).  For purposes of calculating the unused Commitment of each Lender, Swingline Loans made by or deemed made or attributable to such Lender shall not count as usage.
		

		
			(b)The Parent shall pay, or shall cause to be paid, (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which fee shall accrue at the same Applicable Margin used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which it ceases to have any LC Exposure and (ii) to the Issuing Lender a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, but in no event less than $500, as well as the Issuing Lender’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder.  Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year during the Availability Period shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day of such months, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand.  Any other fees payable to the Issuing Lender pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand.  All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).
		

		
			(c)The Parent shall pay, or shall cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter, or otherwise separately agreed upon, between the Parent and the Administrative Agent.
		

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

		
			Section 2.12  Interest.
		

		
			(a)The Loans comprising each ABR Revolving Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.  The Loans comprising each Canadian Prime 
		

		
			

		 

		

			48

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			Rate Revolving Borrowing shall bear interest at the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin.
		

		
			(b)The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.  The Loans comprising each CDOR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Canadian Dealer Offered Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.  The Loans comprising each BBSY Borrowing shall bear interest at the Bank Bill Swap Reference Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.  The Loans comprising each JIBAR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Johannesburg Interbank Agreed Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.
		

		
			(c)Each Swingline Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Swingline Rate.
		

		
			(d)Reserved.
		

		
			(e)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by any Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, such overdue amount shall bear interest at the Default Rate.
		

		
			(f)Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan, CDOR Loan, BBSY Loan or JIBAR 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.
		

		
			(g)All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that (i) interest on Borrowings denominated in Pounds Sterling, Canadian Dollars and Australian Dollars and (ii) interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate, in each case, shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or, except in the case of Borrowings denominated in Pounds Sterling, 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).  The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate, Canadian Prime Rate, Canadian Dealer Offered Rate, Eurocurrency Rate, Bank Bill Swap Reference Rate, Johannesburg Interbank Agreed Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
		

		
			Section 2.13  Market Disruption; Alternate Rate of Interest.  
		

		
			(a)Market Disruption.  If, at the time the Administrative Agent or Alternative Currency Agent shall seek to determine the relevant Screen Rate on the Quotation Day for any Interest Period, the applicable Screen Rate shall not be available for such Interest Period and/or 
		

		
			

		 

		

			49

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			for the applicable currency for any reason and the Administrative Agent or Alternative Currency Agent shall determine that it is not possible to determine the Interpolated Rate (which conclusion shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error), then (i) the LIBO Rate, the Bank Bill Swap Reference Rate or the Johannesburg Interbank Agreed Rate, as the case may be, for such Interest Period for the relevant currency shall be the Reference Bank Rate and (ii) the Canadian Dealer Offered Rate for such Interest Period shall be the rate quoted by the Administrative Agent as of the applicable time on the Quotation Day; provided that if the Reference Bank Rate shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Agreement; provided,  further, that if less than two Reference Banks shall supply a rate to the Administrative Agent or the Alternative Currency Agent, as the case may be, for purposes of determining the LIBO Rate, the Bank Bill Swap Reference Rate or the Johannesburg Interbank Agreed Rate, as the case may be, for such Borrowing, (A) if the Borrowing shall be requested in Dollars, then such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing, (B) if the Borrowing shall be requested in Canadian Dollars, then such Borrowing shall be made as a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing and (C) if such Borrowing shall be requested in any other currency, the request for such Borrowing shall be ineffective.
		

		
			(b)Alternate Rate of Interest.  If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing, a CDOR Borrowing, a BBSY Borrowing or a JIBAR Borrowing:
		

		
			(i)the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate,  the LIBO Rate, the Canadian Dealer Offered Rate, the Bank Bill Swap Reference Rate or the Johannesburg Interbank Agreed Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period (including, for the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to Section 2.13(a)); or
		

		
			(ii)the Administrative Agent is advised by the Majority Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate,  the LIBO Rate, the Canadian Dealer Offered Rate, the Bank Bill Swap Reference Rate or the Johannesburg Interbank Agreed Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;
		

		
			then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Parent and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Parent and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) no outstanding Borrowing of Dollars or Canadian Dollars shall be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing or CDOR Borrowing, as applicable, and any Interest Election Request requesting such conversion or continuation shall be ineffective, (B) no outstanding Eurocurrency Borrowing in any Alternative Currency, BBSY Borrowing or JIBAR Borrowing shall be continued and any Interest Election Request requesting such continuation shall be ineffective, (C) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing, (D) if any Borrowing Request requests a CDOR Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing and (E) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing in an Alternative Currency, a BBSY Borrowing or a JIBAR Borrowing, such request shall be ineffective; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect less than all Types of Borrowings, then the other Types of Borrowings shall be permitted.

			Section 2.14  Increased Costs.
		

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

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

		
			(ii)subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (e) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
		

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

		
			and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender, Issuing Lender or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, Issuing Lender or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, Issuing Lender or other Recipient, the Parent will pay, or will cause to be paid, to such Lender, Issuing Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, Issuing Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
		

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

		
			

		 

		

			51

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(c)Certificates for Reimbursement.  A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or its respective holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Parent and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Parent shall pay, or shall cause to be paid, to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof.
		

		
			(d)Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Parent shall not be required to compensate, or cause to be compensated, a Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Parent of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except 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); provided further that no Lender shall seek compensation from the Parent unless such Lender is actively seeking compensation from other similarly situated borrowers as well.
		

		
			Section 2.15  Break Funding Payments.    In the event of (a) the payment by an Obligor of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan, CDOR Loan, BBSY Loan or JIBAR 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 Eurocurrency Loan, CDOR Loan, BBSY Loan or JIBAR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, or continue any Eurocurrency Loan, CDOR Loan, BBSY Loan or JIBAR Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan, CDOR Loan, BBSY Loan or JIBAR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Parent pursuant to Section 2.18, then, in any such event, the Parent shall compensate, or cause to be compensated, each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event (but excluding any anticipated lost profits).  Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the Canadian Dealer Offered Rate. the Bank Bill Swap Reference Rate or the Johannesburg Interbank Agreed Rate, as applicable, 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, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the interbank market for such currency, or for Canadian deposits of a comparable amount and period to such CDOR Loan from other banks in the Canadian bankers’ acceptable market.  A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Parent and shall be conclusive

			absent manifest error.  The Parent shall pay, or shall cause to be paid, to such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof.
		

		
			Section 2.16  Taxes.  
		

		
			(a)Defined Terms.  For purposes of this Section 2.16, the term “Lender” includes the Issuing Lender and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
		

		
			(b)Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Obligor under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law.  If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Obligor shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings of Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
		

		
			(c)Payment of Other Taxes by the Obligors.  The applicable Obligor shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
		

		
			(d)Indemnification by the Obligors.  Each Obligor shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient with respect to a payment by such Obligor, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment by such Obligor to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.   Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Obligors shall not be required to indemnify a Recipient pursuant to this Section 2.16(d) for any Indemnified Taxes unless such Recipient (or the Administrative Agent on such Recipient’s behalf) notifies the Parent of the indemnification claim for such Indemnified Taxes no later than 180 days after the earlier of (i) the date on which the relevant Governmental Authority makes written demand upon such Recipient for payment of such Indemnified Taxes, and (ii) the date on which such Recipient has made payment of such Indemnified Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority (except that, if the Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted giving rise to such claims are retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Parent by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  For the avoidance of doubt, no Obligor shall be required to indemnify any Person 
		

		
			

		 

		

			53

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			under this Section 2.16(d) in respect of any Indemnified Taxes for which the applicable Recipient has already been compensated by way of an increased payment under Section 2.16(b).
		

		
			(e)Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Obligor has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Obligors to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.04(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).
		

		
			(f)Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Obligor to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.16, such Obligor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
		

		
			(g)Status of Lenders.  (i)  Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall notify the Parent and the Administrative Agent of such exemption or reduction and shall deliver to the Parent and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Parent or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Parent or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Parent or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Parent or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Parent or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than the documentation required to be provided by a Lender in accordance with Section 2.16(h) or such other documentation set forth in Section 2.16(g)(ii)(A),  (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
		

		
			(ii)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, 
		

		
			(A)any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Parent and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a 

		 

		

			54

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Parent or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
		

		
			(B)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Parent and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Parent or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
		

		
			(i)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or applicable successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or applicable successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
		

		
			(ii)executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;
		

		
			(iii)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.16-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or applicable successor form); or
		

		
			(iv)to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W‐8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or applicable successor form), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.16-2 or Exhibit 2.16-3, IRS Form W‐9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.16-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
		

		
			

		 

		

			55

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(C)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Parent and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Parent or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Parent or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
		

		
			(D)if a payment made to a Recipient under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Recipient were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Recipient shall deliver to the Parent and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Parent or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Parent or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Parent and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Recipient has complied with such Recipient’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
		

		
			(iii)Each Lender shall, at the Third Amendment Effective Date or, if it becomes a party to this Agreement after the Third Amendment Effective Date, in the Assignment and Assumption or other documentation contemplated hereby, which it executes on becoming a party, indicate which of the following categories it falls in:
		

		
			(A)not a U.K. Qualifying Lender;
		

		
			(B)a U.K. Qualifying Lender (other than a U.K. Treaty Lender); or
		

		
			(C)a U.K. Treaty Lender.
		

		
			If a Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Section 2.16(g)(iii), then such Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by the U.K. Borrowers) as if it is not a U.K. Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Administrative Agent which category applies (and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the U.K. Borrowers).  For the avoidance of doubt, an Assignment and Assumption or such other documentation shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Section 2.16(g)(iii).
		

		
			

		 

		

			56

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			Each Recipient agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.16(g) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Parent and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
		

		
			(h)Additional United Kingdom Withholding Tax Matters.  
		

		
			(i)Subject to (ii) below, each Lender and each U.K. Borrower shall cooperate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for the U.K. Borrowers to obtain authorization to make such payment without withholding or deduction for Taxes imposed under the laws of the United Kingdom. 
		

		
			(ii)(A)  A Lender on the Third Amendment Effective Date that (x) holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme and (y) wishes such scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall provide its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence to the U.K. Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing on the Third Amendment Effective Date; and
		

		
			(B)a Lender that becomes a Lender hereunder after the Third Amendment Effective Date that (x) holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme and (y) wishes such scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall provide its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence to the U.K. Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in the Assignment and Assumption, and
		

		
			(C)upon satisfying either clause (A) or (B) above, such Lender shall have satisfied its obligation under paragraph (h)(i) above.
		

		
			(iii)If a Lender has confirmed its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with paragraph (h)(ii) above, each U.K. Borrower shall make a DTTP Filing with respect to such Lender within thirty (30) Business Days following the Third Amendment Effective Date or (if applicable) the date of the Assignment and Assumption or, if later, thirty (30) Business Days before the last interest payment is due to such Lender, and shall promptly provide such Lender with a copy of such filing; provided that, if: 
		

		
			(A)any U.K. Borrower has not made a DTTP Filing in respect of such Lender; or
		

		
			(B)any U.K. Borrower has made a DTTP Filing in respect of such Lender but (1) such DTTP Filing has been rejected by HM Revenue & Customs; or (2) HM Revenue & Customs has not given such U.K. Borrower authority to make payments to such Lender without a deduction for tax within 60 days of the date of such DTTP Filing; 
		

		
			and in each case, such U.K. Borrower has notified that Lender in writing of either (1) or (2) above, then such Lender and such U.K. Borrower shall cooperate in completing any additional procedural formalities necessary for such U.K. Borrower 

		 

		

			57

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

to obtain authorization to make that payment without withholding or deduction for Taxes imposed under the laws of the United Kingdom. 
		

		
			(iv)If a Lender has not confirmed its scheme reference number and jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with paragraph (h)(ii) above, no U.K. Borrower shall make a DTTP Filing or file any other form relating to the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme in respect of that Lender’s Commitment or its participation in any Loan unless the Lender otherwise agrees. 
		

		
			(v)Each Lender which had given confirmation to the U.K. Borrowers that it was a U.K. Treaty Lender but determines in its sole discretion that it is ceases to be a U.K. Treaty Lender shall promptly notify the U.K. Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of such change in status.
		

		
			(i)Administrative Agent Documentation.  On or before the Third Amendment Effective Date, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. shall (and any successor or replacement Administrative Agent shall on or before the date on which it becomes the Administrative Agent hereunder) deliver to the Borrower two duly executed originals of either (i) IRS Form W-9 or (ii) IRS Form W-8ECI (with respect to any payments to be received on its own behalf) and IRS Form W-8IMY (for all other payments), establishing that the Borrowers can make payments to the Administrative Agent without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States, including Taxes imposed under FATCA.
		

		
			(j)Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a Tax Credit as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.16 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such Tax Credit (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such Tax Credit), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such Tax Credit).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (i) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such Tax Credit to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (i), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (i) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such Tax Credit had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
		

		
			(k)FATCA Grandfathering.  For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Third Amendment Effective Date, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to 

		 

		

			58

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

treat) this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).
		

		
			(l)Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.16 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
		

		
			Section 2.17  Payments; Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.
		

		
			(a)Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder on Loans or Letters of Credit made to or on account of such Borrower denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements in Dollars, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14,  2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., Houston, Texas time, on the date when due in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, respectively, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim.  Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder on Loans or Letters of Credit made to or on account of such Borrower denominated in any other Alternative Currency (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursements of LC Disbursements in such Alternative Currency, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14,  2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date when due in the applicable Alternative Currency, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim.  Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon.  All payments in Dollars shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 712 Main Street, Houston, Texas, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14,  2.15,  2.16 and 10.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto.  All payments in Alternative Currencies shall be made to the Alternative Currency Agent at the place designated by the Alternative Currency Agent in its notice therefor, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14,  2.15,  2.16 and 10.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto.  The Administrative Agent or the Alternative Currency 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.
		

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

		
			

		 

		

			59

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.
		

		
			(c)If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC 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 the Loans and participations in LC 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 Loans and participations in LC 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 shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any 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 LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Parent or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).  Each 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 such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.  
		

		
			(d)Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the relevant Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the applicable Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the applicable Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (including without limitation the Overnight Alternative Currency Rate in the case of Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies).
		

		
			(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 2.17(d) or 10.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold 

		 

		

			60

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section; in the case of each of (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.
		

		
			Section 2.18  Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.  
		

		
			(a)If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if any Obligor is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  The Parent shall pay, or cause to be paid, 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 2.14, or if any Obligor is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or any Lender suspends its obligation to fund Eurocurrency Loans, CDOR Loans, BBSY Loans or JIBAR Loans pursuant to Section 2.13, or any Lender refuses to consent to an amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement that requires consent of 100% of the Lenders pursuant to Section 10.02, or if any Lender delivers a notice of illegality pursuant to Section 2.21,  then the Parent may, at its sole expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Parent shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender, in each case, to the extent such consent would be required for an assignment pursuant to Section 10.04(b), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and 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 the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment is expected to result in a reduction in such compensation or payments.  A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Parent to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
		

		
			Section 2.19  Increase of Commitments.  Provided there exists no Event of Default, the Parent may, during the period commencing on the Fifth Amendment Effective Date to and including the date that is six months prior to the Termination Date, by written notice to the Administrative Agent executed by the Borrowers and one or more financial institutions (any such financial institution referred to in this Section being called an “Increasing Lender”), which may

include any Lender, cause the Commitments to be extended by the Increasing Lender (or cause the Commitments of the Increasing Lenders to be increased, as the case may be) in an amount for each Increasing Lender set forth in such notice; provided, that (i) each extension of new Commitments or increase in existing Commitments pursuant to this paragraph shall result in the aggregate Commitments being increased by no less than $25,000,000, (ii) no extension of new Commitments or increase in existing Commitments, in each case, pursuant to this paragraph may result in the aggregate Commitments exceeding $500,000,000, (iii) each Increasing Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder (any such Increasing Lender, a “New Lender”), shall be subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender, in each case, to the extent such consent would be required for an assignment to such New Lender pursuant to Section 10.04(b), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (iv) each Lender shall become a party to this Agreement by completing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a duly executed New Lender Agreement and (v) in no event shall any existing Lender be required to increase its Commitment.  New Commitments and increases in Commitments shall become effective on the date specified in the applicable notices delivered pursuant to this paragraph.  Upon the effectiveness of any New Lender Agreement to which any New Lender is a party, (i) such New Lender shall thereafter be deemed to be a party to this Agreement and shall be entitled to all rights, benefits and privileges accorded a Lender hereunder and subject to all obligations of a Lender hereunder, (ii) Schedule 1.01 shall be deemed to have been amended to reflect the Non-Pro Rata Alternative Currencies (if any) in which such New Lender has agreed to fund Revolving Loans and (iii) Schedule 2.01 shall be deemed to have been amended to reflect the Commitment of such New Lender as provided in such New Lender Agreement.  Upon the effectiveness of any increase pursuant to this Section 2.19 in a Commitment of a Lender already a party hereto, Schedule 2.01 shall be deemed to have been amended to reflect such increased Commitment of such Lender.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the Commitments (or in the Commitment of any Lender) shall become effective under this Section 2.19 unless, on the date of such increase, the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate, dated as of the effective date of such increase and executed by a Financial Officer, to the effect that the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a), (b) and (d) of Section 4.02 shall be satisfied (with all references in such paragraphs to a Borrowing being deemed to be references to such increase and attaching resolutions of the Borrowers approving such increase).  Following any extension of a new Commitment or increase of a Lender’s Commitment pursuant to this paragraph, any Loans outstanding prior to the effectiveness of such increase or extension shall continue to be outstanding until the ends of the respective Interests Periods applicable thereto, and shall then be repaid and, if the relevant Borrowers shall so elect, refinanced with new Loans made pursuant to Section 2.01 ratably in accordance with the Commitments in effect following such extension or increase.
		

		
			Section 2.20  Defaulting Lenders.  
		

		
			(a)Defaulting Lender Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:
		

		
			(i)Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Majority Lenders.
		

		
			

		 

		

			62

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(ii)Defaulting Lender Waterfall.   Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2,17 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to cash collateralize the Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.05(j);  fourth, as the Parent may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Parent, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) cash collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.05(j);  sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or Swingline Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Lenders or Swingline Lenders against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in LC Exposure and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iv).   Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.20(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
		

		
			(iii)Certain Fees.  (A)  No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Parent shall not be required to pay or cause to be paid any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).  
		

		
			

		 

		

			63

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(B)Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive participation fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Applicable Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.05(j).  
		

		
			(C)With respect to any participation fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Parent shall (x) pay, or cause to be paid, to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in LC Exposure or Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay, or cause to be paid, to each Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Lender’s or Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay or cause to be paid the remaining amount of any such fee.
		

		
			(iv)Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in LC Exposure and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (A) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Parent shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Parent shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (B) such reallocation does not cause (1) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment, or (2) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender denominated in Alternative Currencies to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment in Alternative Currencies, in each case, calculated at the time of such reallocation.  Subject to Section 10.17, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.
		

		
			(v)Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Loans.  If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize the Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05(j).
		

		
			(b)Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Parent, the Administrative Agent and each Swingline Lender and Issuing Lender agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, 

		 

		

			64

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments (without giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Parent while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided,  further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
		

		
			(c)New Swingline Loans/Letters of Credit.  So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan and (ii) the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.
		

		
			Section 2.21  Illegality.    If, in any applicable jurisdiction, the Administrative Agent,  the Issuing Lender or any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender to (a) perform any of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (b) to fund or maintain its participation in any Loan or (c) issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest or fees with respect to any Loan or Letter of Credit to any Borrower that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States, a state thereof or the District of Columbia,  such Person shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, then, upon the Administrative Agent notifying the Parent, and until such notice by such Person is revoked, any obligation of such Person to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest or fees with respect to any such Loan or Letter of Credit shall be suspended, and to the extent required by applicable Law, cancelled.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Parent shall, or shall cause the applicable Borrower to, (i) repay that Person’s participation in the Loans or other applicable Obligations on the last day of the Interest Period for each Loan or other Obligation occurring after the Administrative Agent has notified the Parent or, if earlier, the date specified by such Person in the notice delivered to the Administrative Agent (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by applicable Law), (ii) to the extent applicable to the Issuing Lender, cash collateralize that portion of the LC Exposure comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit to the extent not otherwise cash collateralized and (iii) take all reasonable actions requested by such Person to mitigate or avoid such illegality.
		

		
			Section 2.22  Judgment Currency.    If, for the purposes of obtaining a judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document from one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used for such conversion shall be the rate of exchange at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding the date on which final judgment is given.  The obligation of each Obligor in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement 

		 

		

			65

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

(the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the next Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency.  If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or such Lender from any Obligor in the Agreement Currency, such Obligor agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against such loss.  If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in such currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Obligor (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable Law).

As of the Third Amendment Effective Date, no proceeding to dissolve any Obligor is pending or, to the Parent’s knowledge, threatened.
		

		
			Section 3.02  Authority Relative to this Agreement.    Each of the Obligors has the power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder.  The Transactions have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership or limited liability company action on the part of each Obligor that is a party thereto.  This 
		

		
			Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been duly and validly executed and delivered by each Obligor party thereto and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Obligor, enforceable against such Obligor in accordance with their respective terms, subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally and to the effect of general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding at Law or in equity).
		

		
			Section 3.03  No Violation.    The Transactions will not:
		

		
			(a)result in a breach of the articles or certificate of incorporation, bylaws, partnership agreement or limited liability company agreement of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary or 

		 

		

			66

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

any resolution currently in effect adopted by the Board of Directors, shareholders, partners, members or managers of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary;
		

		
			(b)result in the imposition of any Lien on any of the Equity Interests of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary or any of their respective assets other than the Liens created under the Loan Documents;
		

		
			(c)result in, or constitute an event that, with the passage of time or giving of notice or both, would be, a breach, violation or default (or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation, prepayment or acceleration) under (i) any agreement evidencing Indebtedness or any other material agreement to which the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary is a party or by which its properties or assets may be bound or (ii) any Governmental Approval held by, or relating to the business of, the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary;

			(e)violate any Law or Order applicable to the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary or by which their respective properties or assets may be bound.
		

		
			Section 3.04  Financial Statements.    The Company has previously furnished to the Administrative Agent the audited consolidated balance sheets of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operation, cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity for the fiscal year then ended, the notes accompanying such financial statements, and the report of KPMG LLP.  Such financial statements fairly present in all material respects the financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of their respective dates and the results of operations and cash flows of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the periods ended on such dates in accordance with GAAP for the periods covered thereby, subject, in the case of interim financial 
		

		
			statements, to normal year-end adjustments, reclassifications and absence of footnotes.  Since December 31, 2013, there has been no change that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
		

		
			Section 3.05  No Undisclosed Liabilities.    Except as disclosed to the Administrative Agent and each Lender in accordance with Section 5.02(b),  neither the Parent nor any Restricted Subsidiary has any material liabilities or obligations of any nature (whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise) except for (a) liabilities or obligations referred to, reflected or reserved against in the financial statements most recently delivered pursuant to Section 4.01(g) or Section 5.01, as applicable, (b) current liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business since the date of such financial statements, (c) liabilities or obligations that are not required to be included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, (d) liabilities or obligations arising under

			Section 3.07  Compliance with Law.    Each of the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries is in compliance with each Law that is or was applicable to it or to the conduct or operation of its business or the ownership or use of any of its assets except where the failure to be in compliance, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; and, as of the Third Amendment Effective Date, neither the Parent nor any Restricted Subsidiary has received any notice of, nor does any of them have knowledge of, the assertion by any Governmental Authority or other Person of any such violation.
		

		
			Section 3.08  Properties.    Each of the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries owns (with good and defensible title in the case of real property, subject only to the matters permitted by the following sentence), or have valid leasehold interests in, all the properties and assets (whether real, personal, or mixed and whether tangible or intangible) material to its business, except for minor irregularities or deficiencies in title that, individually or in the aggregate, do not interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted.  All such properties and assets are free and clear of all Liens except Permitted Liens and are not, in the case of real property, subject to any rights of way, building use restrictions, exceptions, variances, reservations, or limitations of any nature which would materially interfere with an Obligor’s ability to conduct its business as currently conducted.

			68

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(b)To the knowledge of the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries, the conduct by the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries of their respective businesses as presently conducted does not conflict with, infringe on, or otherwise violate any copyright, trade secret, or patent rights of any Person except where such conflict, infringement or violation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
		

		
			Section 3.10  Taxes.    The Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries have filed all Federal, state and other tax returns and reports required to be filed, and have paid all Federal, state and other Taxes imposed upon them or their properties, income or assets otherwise due and payable, except (a) where the failure to file such tax returns or pay such Taxes could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (b) to the extent such Taxes are being actively contested by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary in good faith and by appropriate proceedings; provided that such reserves or other appropriate provisions, if any, as shall be required in conformity with GAAP shall have been made or provided therefor.
		

		
			Section 3.11  Environmental Compliance.

			(b)neither the Parent nor any Restricted Subsidiary has received any written notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability which claims are currently outstanding or know of any basis for any Environmental Liability, except to the extent such liability, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;
		

		
			(c)neither the Parent nor any Restricted Subsidiary has arranged for the disposal of Hazardous Material at a site listed for investigation or clean-up by any Governmental Authority or in violation of any Environmental Law except to the extent such disposal, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

			(e)neither the Parent nor any Restricted Subsidiary has knowledge that any Hazardous Material has been or is currently being generated, processed, stored or released (or is subject to a threatened release) from, on or under any real property owned or operated by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary, or otherwise used in connection with their respective businesses in a quantity or concentration that would require remedial action under any Environmental Law if reported to or discovered by the relevant Governmental Authority except to the extent such remedial action, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and
		

		
			

		 

		

			69

			Section 3.12  Labor Matters.    As of the Third Amendment Effective Date, there are no strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary pending or, to the knowledge of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary, threatened.  The hours worked by and payments made to employees of the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other Law dealing with such matters except to the extent such violation, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  All payments due from the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary, or for which any claim may be made against any of them, 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 Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary except to the extent that the nonpayment of such, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The consummation of the Transactions to occur on the Effective Date and the borrowing of Loans, use of proceeds thereof and issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder after the Effective Date will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary is bound.
		

		
			Section 3.13  Investment Company Status.    Neither the Parent nor any Restricted Subsidiary is an “investment company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
		

		
			Section 3.14  Insurance.    Insurance maintained in accordance with Section 5.05 is in full force and effect.
		

		
			Section 3.15  Solvency.    Immediately after the consummation of the Transactions to occur on the Third Amendment Effective Date, and immediately following the making of each Loan and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of each Loan, (a) the fair value of the assets of the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries on a going concern basis and on a consolidated basis, is greater than the total amount of debts and other liabilities of the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis; (b) the present fair saleable value of the assets of the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries on a going concern basis and on a consolidated basis is not less than the amount that could reasonably be expected to be required to pay the probable liability of their debts and other liabilities, on a consolidated basis, as they become absolute and matured; (c) the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are able to pay their debts and liabilities as they become absolute and mature; and (d) the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not engaged in, and are not about to be engaged in, business or a transaction for which the Parent’s and the Restricted Subsidiaries’ assets, on a consolidated basis, would constitute unreasonably small capital.  For purposes of this Section 3.15, (a) “fair value” shall mean the amount at which the assets of an entity would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, within a commercially reasonable period of time, each having knowledge of the relevant facts, neither being under any compulsion to act, with equity to both; and (b) “present fair saleable value” shall mean the amount that may be realized within a reasonable time, considered to be six months to one year, either through collection or sale at the regular market value, conceiving the 

		 

		

			70

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

latter as the amount which could be obtained for such properties within such period by a capable and diligent businessman from an interested buyer who is willing to purchase under ordinary selling conditions.
		

		
			Section 3.16  ERISA.    No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

			Section 3.18  Margin Stock.    No part of any Borrowing or any Swingline Loan shall be used at any time, to purchase or carry margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U) in violation of Regulation U or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock in violation of Regulation U.  Neither the Parent nor any Restricted Subsidiary is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purposes of purchasing or carrying any such margin stock.  No part of the proceeds of any Borrowing will be used for any purpose which violates, or which is inconsistent with, any regulations promulgated by the Board.
		

		
			Section 3.19  Anti-Corruption Laws and Sanctions.    The Parent has implemented and maintains in effect policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance by the Parent, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions, and the Parent, its Subsidiaries and their respective officers and employees and, to the knowledge of the Parent, its directors and agents (acting in such agent’s capacity as agent for the Obligors), are in compliance with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions in all material respects.

			ARTICLE VIII
The Administrative Agent
		

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

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

		
			

		 

		

			93

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.  The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Parent or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, 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 the Administrative Agent.
		

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

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

		
			Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Parent.  Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall 

		 

		

			94

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

have the right, with the approval of Parent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and shall not be required during the existence of an Event of Default, to appoint a successor.  If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in Houston, Texas, or an Affiliate of any such bank.  Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.  The fees payable by or on behalf of the Parent to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Parent and such successor.  After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative 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 it was acting as Administrative Agent.
		

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

		
			ARTICLE IX
Guarantee
		

		
			Section 9.01  The Guarantee.  
		

		
			(a)Each Credit Facility Guarantor hereby jointly and severally with each other Credit Facility Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the full and punctual payment when due (whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest on each Loan, and the full and punctual payment of all other Obligations.  Upon failure by any Borrower, any Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary to pay punctually any Obligations, each Credit Facility Guarantor shall forthwith on demand pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the manner specified in this Agreement,  the other Loan Documents or such other documents evidencing the Obligations.  This Guarantee is a guaranty of payment and not of collection.  Neither the Lenders nor any other Person to whom such Obligations are owed shall be required to exhaust any right or remedy or take any action against the Borrowers, the Guarantors or any other Person or any Collateral.  Each Credit Facility Guarantor agrees that, as between the Credit Facility Guarantors and the Lenders and any other Person to whom such Obligations are owed, such Obligations may be declared to be due and payable for the purposes of this Guarantee notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition which may prevent, delay or vitiate any declaration as regards any Borrower and that in the event of a declaration or attempted declaration, 

		 

		

			95

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

such Obligations shall immediately become due and payable by each Credit Facility Guarantor for the purposes of this Guaranty.
		

		
			(b)Each CFC Guarantor hereby jointly and severally with each other CFC Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the full and punctual payment when due (whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest on each Loan made to a CFC Borrower, and the full and punctual payment of all other Obligations of any CFC Borrower,  any other CFC Guarantor and any other Restricted Subsidiary that is a CFC Subsidiary; provided that no CFC Subsidiary shall guarantee any Obligations of any Person that is (i) a U.S. Person or (ii) owned by a U.S. Person and classified as a partnership or disregarded entity, in each case for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  Upon failure by any CFC Borrower, any CFC Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary that is a CFC Subsidiary to pay punctually any such Obligations, each CFC Guarantor shall forthwith on demand pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the manner specified in this Agreement,  the other Loan Documents or such other documents evidencing the Obligations; provided that no CFC Subsidiary shall be required to pay any Obligations of any Person that is (i) a U.S. Person or (ii) owned by a U.S. Person and classified as a partnership or disregarded entity, in each case for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  This Guarantee is a guaranty of payment and not of collection.  Neither the Lenders nor any other Person to whom such Obligations are owed shall be required to exhaust any right or remedy or take any action against the CFC Borrowers, the Guarantors or any other Person or any Collateral.  Each CFC Guarantor agrees that, as between the CFC Guarantors and the Lenders and any other Person to whom such Obligations are owed, such Obligations may be declared to be due and payable for the purposes of this Guarantee notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition which may prevent, delay or vitiate any declaration as regards any CFC Borrower and that in the event of a declaration or attempted declaration, such Obligations shall immediately become due and payable by each CFC Guarantor for the purposes of this Guarantee; provided that no CFC Subsidiary shall be required to pay any Obligations of any Person that is (i) a U.S. Person or (ii) owned by a U.S. Person and classified as a partnership or disregarded entity, in each case for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
		

		
			Section 9.02  Guaranty Unconditional.    The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by:
		

		
			(a)any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise other than the full payment thereof;
		

		
			(b)any modification, amendment or waiver of or supplement to the Loan Documents, any Lender Swap Agreements or any other document evidencing the Obligations;
		

		
			(c)any release, impairment, non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for any Obligations;
		

		
			(d)any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Borrower, any other Guarantor, any Restricted Subsidiary or their respective assets or any resulting release or discharge of any Obligation;
		

		
			

		 

		

			96

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(e)the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which the Guarantor may have at any time against any Borrower, any other Guarantor, any Restricted Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim;
		

		
			(f)any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary for any reason of the Loan Documents, any Lender Swap Agreement, any other document evidencing the Obligations or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount payable by any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary in respect of the Obligations; or
		

		
			(g)any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by any Borrower, any other Guarantor, any Restricted Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder.
		

		
			Furthermore, notwithstanding that a Borrower may not be obligated to the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders for interest and/or attorneys’ fees and expenses on, or in connection with, any Obligations from and after the Petition Date (as hereinafter defined) as a result of the provisions of the federal bankruptcy law or otherwise, Obligations for which the Guarantors shall
		

		
			be obligated shall include interest accruing on the Obligations at the Default Rate from and after the date on which any Borrower files for protection under the federal bankruptcy laws or from and after the date on which an involuntary proceeding is filed against any Borrower under the federal bankruptcy laws (herein collectively referred to as the “Petition Date”) and all reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent,  the Lenders and each other Person to whom the Obligations are owed from and after the Petition Date in connection with the Obligations.
		

		
			Section 9.03  Discharge Only upon Payment in Full; Reinstatement In Certain Circumstances.    Each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall remain in full force and effect until (a) all Obligations shall have been paid in full (other than indemnity obligations which survive but are not yet due and payable), (b) all Commitments shall have expired or been terminated and (c) the LC Exposure has been reduced to zero or fully cash collateralized as provided in this Agreement, except, in each case, to the extent any Subsidiary has been released from its obligations as a Guarantor hereunder pursuant to Section 5.09(g) or Section 9.08.  If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount payable by the Obligors under the Loan Documents or otherwise in respect of the Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Obligor or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had been due but not made at such time.  The Credit Facility Guarantors jointly and severally agree to indemnify each Lender and the CFC Guarantors jointly and severally agree to indemnify each Lender with respect to payments of Obligations of the CFC Borrowers and CFC Guarantors, in each case, on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable fees of counsel) incurred by such Lender in connection 

		 

		

			97

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, other than any costs or expenses resulting from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lender;  provided that no CFC Guarantor shall be required to pay any Obligations of, or any costs or expenses related to, any Person that is (i) a U.S. Person or (ii) owned by a U.S. Person and classified as a partnership or disregarded entity, in each case for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
		

		
			Section 9.04  Waiver by Each Guarantor.    Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, diligence, presentment, demand, protest notice of acceleration or the intent to accelerate and any other notice not provided for in this Article other than to the extent expressly provided for in favor of the Guarantors in any of the Loan Documents, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any other Person.
		

		
			Section 9.05  Subrogation.    Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the holders of the Loans and other Obligations against the Borrowers in respect of any amounts
		

		
			 paid by such Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX;  provided that such Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or to receive any payments arising out of or based upon such right of subrogation until (a) all Obligations shall have been paid in full (other than indemnity obligations which survive but are not yet due and payable), (b) all Commitments shall have expired or been terminated and (c) the LC Exposure has been reduced to zero or fully cash collateralized as provided in this Agreement, except, in each case, to the extent any Subsidiary has been released from its obligations as a Guarantor hereunder pursuant to Section 5.09(g) or Section 9.08.  If any amount is paid to any Guarantor on account of subrogation rights under this Guaranty at any time when the conditions set forth in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the foregoing sentence have not been satisfied, the amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Lenders and the other Persons to whom the Obligations are owed and shall be promptly paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured or absolute or contingent, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
		

		
			Section 9.06  Stay of Acceleration.
		

		
			(a)If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by any Obligor under the Loan Documents is stayed upon insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement shall nonetheless be payable by each Credit Facility Guarantor hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent made at the request of the requisite proportion of the Lenders specified in Article X of this Agreement.
		

		
			(b)If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by any CFC Borrower or any other CFC Guarantor under the Loan Documents is stayed upon insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any CFC Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement shall nonetheless be payable by each CFC 

		 

		

			98

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

Guarantor hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent made at the request of the requisite proportion of the Lenders specified in Article X of this Agreement.
		

		
			Section 9.07  Limit of Liability.    The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of any applicable state law.
		

		
			Section 9.08  Release upon Sale.    Upon any sale of any Guarantor permitted by this Agreement, (a) such Guarantor shall be released from its obligations as a Guarantor hereunder, (b) all Liens granted by such Guarantor to secure its Guarantee shall automatically be terminated and released and (c) the Administrative Agent will, at the expense of the Parent, execute and deliver such documents as are reasonably necessary to evidence said releases and terminations, following written request from the Parent and receipt by the Administrative Agent of a certificate from a Financial Officer certifying that no Default or Event of Default exists.    
		

		
			Section 9.09  Benefit to Guarantor.    Each Guarantor acknowledges that the Loans and other extensions of credit made to the Borrowers may be, in part, re-loaned to, or used for the benefit of, such Guarantor and its Affiliates, that each Guarantor, because of the utilization of the proceeds of the Loans and such other extensions of credit, will receive a direct benefit from the Loans and such other extensions of credit and that, without the Loans and such other extensions of credit, such Guarantor would not be able to continue its operations and carry on its business as presently conducted.
		

		
			Section 9.10  Keepwell.    Each Qualified ECP Guarantor (as hereinafter defined) hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Obligor to honor all of its obligations under the Guarantees in respect of Swap Obligations (provided,  however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 9.10 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 9.10, or otherwise under the Guarantees, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount).  The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until termination of the Guarantees as described in Section 9.03 hereof.  Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 9.10 constitute, and this Section 9.10 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Obligor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.  As used herein, “Qualified ECP Guarantor” means, in respect of any Swap Obligation, each Obligor that has total assets exceeding $10,000,000 at the time the relevant guarantee or grant of the relevant security interest becomes effective with respect to such Swap Obligation or such other Person as constitutes an “eligible contract participant” under the Commodity Exchange Act or any regulations promulgated thereunder and can cause another Person to qualify as an “eligible contract participant” at such time by entering into a keepwell under Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no CFC Subsidiary shall be required to provide such funds or other support under this Section 9.10 with respect to obligations of any Person that is (i) a U.S. Person or (ii) owned by a U.S. Person and classified as a partnership or disregarded entity, in each case for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

			(b)Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Article II unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender.

			Section 10.02  Waivers; Amendments.
		

		
			(a)No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single

or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power.  The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have.  No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Obligor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the 
		

		
			making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.
		

		
			(b)Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Majority Lenders or by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Majority Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase any Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.17(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change any provisions of Section 2.20 or the definition of “Defaulting Lender”, without the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender (in addition to the Majority Lenders), (vi) change any of the provisions of this Section 10.02(b) or the definition of “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 written consent of each Lender, (vii) release all or a material portion of the Collateral without the written consent of each Lender, provided, that nothing herein shall prohibit the Administrative Agent from releasing any Collateral, or require the consent of the other Lenders for such release, in respect of items sold, leased, transferred or otherwise disposed of to the extent such transaction is permitted hereunder, or (viii) release all or substantially all of the Guarantees (other than in connection with any transactions permitted by this Agreement) without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Alternative Currency Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Alternative Currency Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be. 
		

		
			Section 10.03  Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.
		

		
			(a)The Parent shall pay, or shall cause to be paid, (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel and consultants for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, due diligence undertaken by the Administrative Agent with respect to the financing contemplated by this Agreement, the preparation and administration of this Agreement 

		 

		

			103

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof (whether or not the Transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the
		

		
			 Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender for fees, charges and disbursements of one primary law firm as counsel, local counsel as needed and consultants for the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender and all other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement during the existence of a Default or an Event of Default (whether or not any waiver or forbearance has been granted in respect thereof), including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.
		

		
			(b)THE PARENT SHALL INDEMNIFY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING LENDER, AND EACH LENDER, AND EACH RELATED PARTY OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING PERSONS (EACH SUCH PERSON BEING CALLED AN “INDEMNITEE”) AGAINST, AND HOLD EACH INDEMNITEE HARMLESS FROM, ANY AND ALL LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES AND RELATED EXPENSES, INCLUDING THE FEES, CHARGES AND DISBURSEMENTS OF ANY COUNSEL FOR ANY INDEMNITEE, INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR AS A RESULT OF (I) THE EXECUTION OR DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, THE PERFORMANCE BY THE PARTIES HERETO OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, (II) ANY LOAN OR LETTER OF CREDIT OR THE USE OF THE PROCEEDS THEREFROM (INCLUDING ANY REFUSAL BY THE ISSUING LENDER TO HONOR A DEMAND FOR PAYMENT UNDER A LETTER OF CREDIT IF THE DOCUMENTS PRESENTED IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH DEMAND DO NOT STRICTLY COMPLY WITH THE TERMS OF SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT), (III) ANY ACTUAL OR ALLEGED PRESENCE OR RELEASE OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ON OR FROM ANY PROPERTY OWNED OR OPERATED BY THE PARENT OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES, OR ANY ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITY RELATED IN ANY WAY TO THE PARENT OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES, OR (IV) ANY ACTUAL CLAIM, LITIGATION, INVESTIGATION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANY INDEMNITEE IS A PARTY THERETO AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH CLAIM, LITIGATION, INVESTIGATION OR PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT BY THE PARENT OR ANY GUARANTOR, THEIR RESPECTIVE EQUITY HOLDERS, THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, THEIR RESPECTIVE CREDITORS OR ANY OTHER PERSON; AND WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY THE ORDINARY, SOLE OR CONTRIBUTORY NEGLIGENCE OF ANY INDEMNITEE,  PROVIDED FURTHER THAT SUCH INDEMNITY SHALL NOT, AS TO ANY INDEMNITEE, BE AVAILABLE TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES OR RELATED EXPENSES RESULTED FROM 

		 

		

			104

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH INDEMNITEE.  THIS SECTION 10.03(b) SHALL NOT APPLY WITH RESPECT TO TAXES OTHER THAN ANY TAXES THAT REPRESENT LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, ETC. ARISING FROM ANY NON-TAX CLAIM.
		

		
			(c)To the extent that the Parent fails to pay, or fails to cause to be paid, any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such.  For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposure and unused Commitments at the time.
		

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

		
			(e)All amounts due under this Section shall be payable no later than ten (10) Business Days from written demand therefor.
		

		
			Section 10.04  Successors and Assigns.
		

		
			(a)The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) except as expressly set forth in Section 5.10(b), no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void), and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 10.04.  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
		

		
			(b)(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:
		

		
			

		 

		

			105

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

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

		
			(B)the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender;
		

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

		
			(A)except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 and after giving effect to such assignment, the assigning Lender Commitment or Loans shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Parent and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent or unless the assignment is of 100% of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and Loans, provided that no such consent of the Parent shall be required if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (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 under this Agreement;
		

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

		
			(D)the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (1) an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may include material non-public information about the Parent or Guarantors and their Related Parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with such assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws and (2) notice of the Non-Pro Rata Alternative Currencies (if any) in which such assignee has agreed to fund Revolving Loans;
		

		
			(E)prior to any assignment to an assignee that is not a Lender, the Lender making such an assignment shall first offer the assignment to the other Lenders who shall have five (5) Business Days to purchase the assignment on the same terms as are proposed to such non-Lender assignee; and
		

		
			

		 

		

			106

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(F)no such assignment shall be made to (i) a natural Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned or operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person), (ii) the Parent or any of the Parent’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (iii) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (iii).
		

		
			(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 Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14,  2.15,  2.16 and 10.03).  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.
		

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

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

		
			(c)(i)  Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such participations must be approved by the Parent so long as no Event of Default has occurred 

		 

		

			107

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

and is continuing, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, (B) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (C) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (D) such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing immediately upon any such participation, and (E) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant.  Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Parent agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14,  2.15 and 2.16 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Sections 2.16(g) and (h) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.16(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender.
		

		
			(ii)A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant.  A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Parent is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Parent, to comply with Section 2.16(g) as though it were a Lender.
		

		
			(iii)Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Parent, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
		

		
			(d)Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without 

		 

		

			108

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

limitation 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.
		

		
			Section 10.05  Survival.    All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrowers and each Guarantor herein and in the certificates or other instruments  delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated.  The provisions of Sections 2.14,  2.15,  2.16 and 10.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the Transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.
		

		
			Section 10.06  Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.    This Agreement may be executed in counterparts and may be delivered in original or facsimile form (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.  Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
		

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

		
			Section 10.08  Right of Setoff.    Each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time that an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers or any Guarantor against the 

		 

		

			109

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

obligations of the Borrowers and each Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender or Affiliate thereof shall set off or apply any deposits of a CFC Subsidiary or any other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit of such CFC Subsidiary on account of any or all of the obligations of any Person that is (i) a  U.S. Person or (ii) owned by a U.S. Person and classified as a partnership or disregarded entity, in each case for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.
		

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

		
			(a)This Agreement and the Loan Documents shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the Law of the State of New York without regard to any choice-of-law provisions that would require the application of the Law of another jurisdiction provided, to the extent any of the Security Documents recite that they are governed by the Law of another jurisdiction, or any action or event taken thereunder (such as foreclosure of any Collateral) requires application of or compliance with the Law of another jurisdiction, such provisions and concepts shall be controlling.
		

		
			(b)Each of the Borrowers  and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Courts of the State of New York sitting in New York City and of the United States District Court sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State Court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final, non-appealable judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.  Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against the Borrowers or Guarantors or their properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
		

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

		
			(d)Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.01.  Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
		

		
			Section 10.10  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 ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS 

		 

		

			110

		

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).  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 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.
		

		
			Section 10.11  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 shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.
		

		
			Section 10.12  Confidentiality.    Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below) and use such Information solely in connection with the consideration, administration, documentation, implementation, syndication or negotiation of the Transactions, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Related Parties who need to know the Information in order to consider, administer, document, implement, syndicate or negotiate the terms of the Transactions (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Obligor and its obligations under the Loan Documents, (g) with the consent of the Parent or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section by any party hereto or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Parent, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its Affiliates.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Alternative Currency Agent shall (i) use the Information in connection with the performance by the Administrative Agent of services for other companies or (ii) furnish any Information to other companies.  For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrowers relating to the Borrowers or their business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrowers, any of their respective Subsidiaries, any of its Affiliates or any Related Party of the foregoing.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.  If the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender is requested or required, by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process, to disclose any

or all of the Information, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or such Lender will provide the Parent with prompt notice of such event (to the extent that such notice does not contravene any applicable law or similar regulation) so that the Parent may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or such Lender.
