 (d) The Escrow Agent may consult with legal counsel of its own selection (with the expense to be reimbursed in accordance with the terms of Section 14 hereof) as to any matter relating to this Escrow and Security Agreement, and the Escrow
Agent shall not incur any liability in acting in good faith in accordance with any advice from such counsel. 
  
 (e) The Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any duty, obligation or responsibility hereunder by reason of
any occurrence beyond the control of the Escrow Agent (including but not limited to any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, any act of God, war, terrorism or other catastrophe, or the unavailability
of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or telex or other wire or communication facility). 
  

 11 

 (f) The Pledgor, with the consent of the Representative and the Trustee may remove the Escrow Agent at
any time by giving to Escrow Agent five (5) calendar days’ prior notice in writing signed by the Pledgor, the Representative and Trustee. The Escrow Agent may resign at any time by giving to the Pledgor, the Representative and Trustee fifteen
(15) calendar days’ prior written notice thereof. 
  
 (i) Within two (2) calendar days after giving the foregoing notice of removal to Escrow Agent or receiving the foregoing notice of resignation from Escrow Agent, the Pledgor, the Representative and the Trustee shall reasonably agree on and
appoint a successor Escrow Agent. If a successor Escrow Agent has not accepted such appointment by the end of such two-day period, the Escrow Agent may, in its sole discretion, apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor Escrow Agent or for other appropriate relief. The costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Escrow Agent in connection with such proceeding shall be paid by, and be deemed an obligation of,
the Pledgor. 
  
 (ii) Upon receipt of the
identity of the successor Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent shall either deliver the Escrowed Funds then held hereunder to the successor Escrow Agent, less Escrow Agent’s fees, costs and expenses or other obligations owed to the Escrow Agent, or
hold such Escrowed Funds (or any portion thereof), pending distribution, until all such fees, costs and expenses or other obligations are paid. 
  
 (iii) Upon delivery of the Escrowed Funds to such successor Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent shall have no further duties, responsibilities
or obligations hereunder. 
  
 (g) Any corporation or other company
into which the Escrow Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or other company resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Escrow Agent shall be a party, or any corporation or
other company succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Escrow Agent, shall be the successor of the Escrow Agent hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further action on the part of any of
the parties hereto. 
  
 (h) The Escrow Agent shall upon the
request of the Pledgor from time to time, provide a statement identifying transactions, transfers or holdings of Escrowed Funds and each such statement shall be deemed to be correct and final upon receipt thereof by the other parties hereto unless
the Escrow Agent is notified in writing to the contrary within thirty (30) Business Days of the date of such statement. 
  
 (i) The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible in any respect for the form, execution, validity, value or genuineness of documents or securities deposited
hereunder, or for any description therein, or for the identity, authority or rights of Persons executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver any such document, security or endorsement. 
  

 12 

 (j) In the event of any ambiguity or uncertainty hereunder or in any notice, instruction or other
communication received by the Escrow Agent hereunder, the Escrow Agent may, in its sole discretion, refrain from taking any action other than retain possession of the Escrowed Funds, unless the Escrow Agent receives joint written instructions,
signed by Pledgor, Representative and the Trustee, which eliminates such ambiguity or uncertainty. 
  
 (k) In the event of any dispute between or conflicting claims, demands or instructions by or among the other parties to this Escrow and Security Agreement
and/or any other Person with respect to any Escrowed Funds, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled, in its sole discretion, to refuse to comply with any and all claims, demands or instructions with respect to such Escrowed Funds so long as such dispute
or conflict shall continue, and the Escrow Agent shall not be or become liable in any way for failure or refusal to comply with such conflicting claims, demands or instructions. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to refuse to act until, in its sole
discretion, either (i) such conflicting or adverse claims or demands shall have been determined by a final order, judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, which order, judgment or decree is not subject to appeal, or settled by
agreement between the conflicting parties as evidenced in a writing satisfactory to the Escrow Agent or (ii) the Escrow Agent shall have received security or an indemnity satisfactory to it sufficient to hold it harmless from and against any and all
Losses (as defined below) which it may incur by reason of so acting. The Escrow Agent may, in addition, elect, in its sole discretion, to commence an interpleader action or seek other judicial relief or orders as it may deem, in its sole discretion,
necessary. The costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection with such proceeding shall be paid by, and shall be deemed an obligation of, the Pledgor. 
  
 (l) The rights and remedies conferred upon the Escrow Agent and the Pledgor
hereto shall be cumulative, and the exercise or waiver of any such right or remedy shall not preclude or inhibit the exercise of any additional rights or remedies. The waiver of any right or remedy hereunder shall not preclude the subsequent
exercise of such right or remedy. 
  
 (m) The Escrow Agent does
not have any interest in the Escrowed Funds hereunder but is serving as escrow holder only and having only possession thereof. Pledgor shall pay or reimburse the Escrow Agent upon request for any transfer taxes or other taxes relating to the
Escrowed Funds incurred in connection herewith and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow Agent any amounts that it is obligated to pay in the way of such taxes. Upon execution of this Agreement, the parties hereto shall provide the Escrow
Agent with a fully executed W-9 IRS form. The parties hereto agree that (i) for tax reporting purposes, and for any tax year, all interest or other income earned under the Escrow and Security Agreement shall be allocable to the Pledgor and (ii) to
the extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgor will include all amounts earned under the Escrow and Security Agreement in its gross income for federal, state and local income tax (collectively, “income tax”) purposes and pay any
income tax resulting therefrom, and the Escrow Agent shall allocate all such earnings for tax reporting purposes to the Pledgor. Any payments of income from the account established hereunder may be subject to withholding regulations then in force
with respect to United States taxes, and if required, the parties hereto will promptly provide the Escrow Agent with completed and executed W-9, W-8BEN or other appropriate forms. It is understood that the Escrow Agent shall be responsible for
income reporting only with respect to any income which may be earned on investment of funds which are a part of the Escrowed Funds and is not responsible for any other reporting. 
  

 13 

 (n) The rights and powers granted to the Escrow Agent hereunder are being granted in order to preserve
and protect the security interest of the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes in and to the Collateral granted hereby and shall not be interpreted to and shall not impose any duties on the Escrow Agent in connection therewith other than those
expressly provided herein or imposed under applicable law. Except as provided by applicable law or by the Indenture, the Escrow Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its
possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Escrow Agent accords similar property held by the Escrow Agent for similar accounts, it being understood that the Escrow Agent in its capacity as such shall not
have any responsibility for (a) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not the Escrow Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters,
(b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any Collateral or (c) investing or reinvesting any of the Collateral, provided, however, that nothing contained in this Escrow and Security Agreement
shall relieve the Escrow Agent of any responsibilities in its capacity as a securities intermediary under applicable law. 
  
 Section 12. Indemnity. The Pledgor shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Escrow Agent and its directors, officers, agents and employees,
from and against any and all claims, actions, obligations, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (“Losses”) directly or indirectly arising out of, relating to or in connection with its acceptance of its appointment hereunder or
its performance as Escrow Agent, provided that such Losses do not arise from the Escrow Agent’s bad faith, wilful misconduct or gross negligence. 
  
 SECTION 13. Remedies upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default under the Indenture or any default hereunder (any such Event of Default or
default being referred to in this Escrow and Security Agreement as an “Event of Default”) not cured within 30 days after notice thereof to the Pledgor shall have occurred and be continuing: 
  
 (a) The Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall have, in addition to all
other rights given by law or by this Escrow and Security Agreement or the Indenture, all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the U.C.C. in effect in the State of New York at that time. In addition, with
respect to any Collateral that shall then be in or shall thereafter come into the possession or custody of the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent, at the written direction of the Trustee, shall, sell or cause the same to be sold at any broker’s
board or at public or private sale, in one or more sales or lots, at such price or prices as the Trustee may deem commercially reasonable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery, without assumption of any credit risk. The purchaser of any or
all Collateral so sold shall thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any claim, encumbrance or right of any kind whatsoever created by or through the Pledgor. Unless any of the Collateral threatens, in the reasonable judgment of the Trustee,
to decline speedily in value or is or becomes of a type sold on a recognized market, the Trustee will give the Pledgor reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof, or of the time after which any private sale or other intended
disposition is to be made. Any sale of the Collateral conducted in conformity with reasonable commercial practices of 
  

 14 

 banks, insurance companies, commercial finance companies, or other financial institutions disposing of property similar
to the Collateral shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable. Any requirements of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is mailed to the Pledgor as provided in Section 16.1 hereof at least five (5) days before the time of the sale or
disposition. The Trustee, Escrow Agent or any Holder of Notes may, in its own name or in the name of a designee or nominee, buy any of the Collateral at any public sale and, if permitted by applicable law, at any private sale. All expenses
(including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements) of, or incident to, the enforcement of any of the provisions hereof shall be recoverable from the proceeds of the sale or other disposition of the Collateral.

  
 (b) The Pledgor further agrees to use its reasonable best
efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Collateral pursuant to this Section 13 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable
requirements of law. The Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 13 will cause irreparable injury to the Trustee, Escrow Agent and the Holders of the Notes, that the Trustee, Escrow Agent and the
Holders of the Notes have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 13 shall be specifically enforceable against the Pledgor, and the Pledgor hereby waives and
agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred. 
  
 SECTION 14. Compensation; Expenses. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to receive an administrative fee of $1,500.00 from the Pledgor upon
execution of this Escrow and Security Agreement. If any fees, expenses or costs incurred by, or any obligations owed to, the Escrow Agent hereunder are not promptly paid when due, the Escrow Agent may reimburse itself therefor from the Escrowed
Funds and may sell, convey or otherwise dispose of any Escrowed Funds for such purpose. As security for the due and punctual performance of the obligations to the Escrow Agent under this Section 14, Section 12 hereof and all other obligations owing
to the Escrow Agent hereunder, now or hereafter arising, the Pledgor hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Escrow Agent a continuing security interest in, and a lien on, the Escrowed Funds and all distributions thereon or additions thereto. The
security interest of the Escrow Agent shall at all times be valid, perfected and enforceable by the Escrow Agent against all such parties and all third parties in accordance with the terms of this Escrow Agreement. The Pledgor will upon demand pay
to the Escrow Agent the amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of its counsel, experts and agents retained by the Escrow Agent, that the Escrow Agent may incur in
connection with (a) the review, negotiation and administration of this Escrow and Security Agreement, (b) the custody or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral, (c) the exercise or
enforcement of any of the rights of the Escrow Agent, the Holders of the Notes and the Initial Purchasers hereunder or (d) the failure by the Pledgor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof. 
  
 SECTION 15. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Trustee,
Escrow Agent, the Holders of the Notes and the Initial Purchasers and security interests hereunder, and all obligations of the Pledgor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: 
  
 (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Indenture or any other
agreement or instrument relating thereto; 
  

 15 

 (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the
Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Indenture; or 
  
 (c) any exchange, surrender, release or non-perfection of any Liens on any other collateral for all or any of the Obligations.

 16.3 Severability. The provisions of this Escrow and Security Agreement are severable, and if any clause or provision
shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect in that jurisdiction only such clause or provision, or part thereof, and shall not in any manner affect
such clause or provision in any other jurisdiction or any other clause or provision of this Escrow and Security Agreement in any jurisdiction. 
  
 16.4 Headings. The headings in this Escrow and Security Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a
part hereof and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy that the Escrow Agent, Trustee, Representative or such Holder of Notes would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein
provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. 
  
 16.8 Interpretation of Agreement. To the extent a term or provision of this Escrow and Security Agreement (other than Sections 10, 11, 12, 13 and

be relevant to determine the meaning of this Escrow and Security Agreement even though the accepting or acquiescing party had knowledge of the nature of the performance and opportunity for objection.

agent of the Escrow Agent shall be liable to the Pledgor for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Escrow Agent, in its capacity as Escrow Agent, hereunder, except for its own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct, and the
Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for the validity, effectiveness or sufficiency hereof or of any document or security furnished pursuant hereto. The Escrow Agent and its directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents shall be entitled to

	 LFS-Merger Sub, Inc. 
 $152,000,000 10 3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015

  
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
  
 We have acted as counsel to LFS-Merger Sub, Inc., a Texas corporation
(“Merger Sub”), in connection with the purchase and sale of $152,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 10 3/4% senior subordinated notes due 2015 (the “Notes”) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 28, 2005 (the “Agreement”), among Merger Sub, each of you and, as of •, 2005, Eye Care
Centers of America, Inc., a Texas corporation (the “Company”), and the subsidiaries of the Company named in Schedule A hereto (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”). The Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as
of February 4, 2005 (the “Indenture”), between Merger Sub and The Bank of New York, as trustee (the “Trustee”). This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 7(a) of the Escrow Agreement, dated as of February
4, 2005 (the “Escrow Agreement”), among Merger Sub, The Bank of New York, as escrow agent, the Trustee and each of you. 
  
 In that connection, we have reviewed originals or copies of the following documents: 
  
 (a) The Agreement. 
  
 (b) The Indenture. 
  
 (c) The Supplemental Indenture, dated as of •, 2005 (the “Supplemental Indenture”), among Merger Sub, the Company, the Subsidiary
Guarantors and the Trustee. 
  
 (d) The Registration Rights
Agreement, dated as of •, 2005 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and each of you. 

 (e) The Escrow Agreement. 
  
 (f) A form of certificate representing the Notes. 
  
 The documents described in the foregoing clauses (a) through (f) are collectively referred to herein as the “Opinion
Documents”. 
  
 We have also reviewed the following:

  
 (a) The certificate of incorporation and by-laws of each of
the Subsidiary Guarantors listed in Column I of Schedule A hereto (the “Delaware Subsidiary Guarantors”), as amended through the date hereof. 
  

(b) Originals or copies of such other records of Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, certificates of public officials and of
officers of Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and agreements and other documents as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below. 
  
 In our review of the Opinion Documents and other documents, we have assumed: 
  
 (a) The genuineness of all signatures. 
  
 (b) The authenticity of the originals of the documents submitted to us.

  
 (c) The conformity to authentic originals of any documents
submitted to us as copies. 
  
 (d) As to matters of fact, the
truthfulness of the representations made in the Agreement and the other Opinion Documents and in certificates of public officials and officers of Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors. 
  
 (e) That each of the Opinion Documents is the legal, valid and binding
obligation of each party thereto, other than Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, enforceable against each such party in accordance with its terms. 
  
 (f) That: 
  
 (i) Each of Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors listed in Column II of Schedule A hereto (the “Non-Delaware
Subsidiary Guarantors”) is an entity duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization. 
  
 (ii) Each of Merger Sub, the Company and the Non-Delaware Subsidiary Guarantors has full power to execute, deliver and perform, and each
of Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors has duly executed and delivered (except to the extent Generally Applicable Law is applicable to such execution and delivery), the Opinion Documents to which it is a party. 

 (iii) The execution, delivery and performance by each of Merger Sub, the Company and the
Non-Delaware Subsidiary Guarantors of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary action (corporate or otherwise). 
  

(iv) The execution, delivery and performance by each of Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors of the Opinion Documents
to which it is a party do not: 
  
 (A) except
with respect to the Delaware Subsidiary Guarantors, contravene its certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents; or 
  
 (B) except with respect to Generally Applicable Law, violate any law, rule or regulation applicable to it; or 
  
 (C) result in any conflict with or breach any agreement or
document binding on it of which you have knowledge, have received notice or have reason to know. 
  
 (v) Except with respect to Generally Applicable Law, no authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any
governmental authority or regulatory body or (to the extent the same is required under any agreement or document binding on it of which you have knowledge, have received notice or have reason to know) any other third party is required for the due
execution, delivery or performance by Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors of the Opinion Document to which it is a party or, if any such authorization, approval, consent, action, notice or filing is required, it has been duly
obtained, taken, given or made and is in full force and effect. 
  
 We have not
independently established the validity of the foregoing assumptions. 
  
 “Generally Applicable Law” means the federal law of the United States of America, and the law of the State of New York (including the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder or pursuant thereto), that a New York lawyer
exercising customary professional diligence would reasonably be expected to recognize as being applicable to the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Opinion Documents or the transactions governed by the Opinion Documents, and for purposes of
assumption paragraph (f) above and our opinions in paragraphs 1 and 2 below, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing definition of Generally Applicable Law, the term “Generally
Applicable Law” does not include any law, rule or regulation that is applicable to Merger Sub, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Opinion Documents or such transactions solely because such law, rule or regulation is part of a
regulatory regime applicable to any party to any of the Opinion Documents or any of its affiliates due to the specific assets or business of such party or such affiliate. 

 Based upon the foregoing and upon such other investigation as we have deemed necessary and subject to the
qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that: 
  
 1. Each of the Delaware Subsidiary Guarantors has (a) the corporate power to execute, deliver and perform the Opinion Documents to which it is or will be a party and (b) has taken all corporate action necessary to authorize the execution,
delivery and performance of each Opinion Document to which it is a party. 
  
 2. The execution and delivery by each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors of each Opinion Document to which it is or will be a party do not, and the performance of its obligations thereunder will not, result
in a violation of the certificates of incorporation or by-laws of the Delaware Subsidiary Guarantors. 
  
 3. The Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors. 
  
 4. The Registration Rights Agreement has been duly executed and delivered and
is the legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, enforceable against each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors in accordance with its terms. 
  
 5. The Supplemental Indenture has been duly executed and delivered by each of
the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, is the legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, enforceable against each of the Company and
the Subsidiary Guarantors in accordance with its terms. 
  
 6. The
Notes are the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms and entitled to the benefits of the Indenture. 
  
 7. The Guarantee of each Subsidiary Guarantor is the legal, valid and binding obligation of each such Subsidiary Guarantor,
enforceable against each such Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with its terms. 
  
 8. The Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, conforms in all material respects with the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. 
  
 Our opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications:

  
 (a) Our opinions in paragraphs 4, 5, 6 and 7 are subject to
the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally (including without limitation all laws relating to fraudulent transfers). 
  
 (b) Our opinions in paragraphs 4, 5, 6 and 7 are also subject to the effect
of general principles of equity, including without limitation concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 

 (c) Our opinions are limited to Generally Applicable Law and we do not express any opinion herein
concerning any other law. 
  
 (d) The enforcement of any rights to
indemnity and contribution under the Registration Rights Agreement referred to in our opinion in paragraph 4 above may be limited by federal and state securities laws and principles of public policy. 
  
 This opinion letter is rendered to you in connection with the transactions
contemplated by the Opinion Documents. This opinion letter may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose without our prior written consent. 
  
 This opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to advise you of any development or circumstance of any
kind, including any change of law or fact, that may occur after the date of this opinion letter that might affect the opinions expressed herein. 
  
 Very truly yours,

The Notes have been sold to you by Merger Sub pursuant to that certain Purchase
Agreement, dated as of January 28, 2005 (the “Purchase Agreement”), between Merger Sub and you, as Representative of the several Initial Purchasers listed in Schedule 1 thereto. The Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated

“Merger”) of Merger Sub with and into the Company pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 2, 2004 (the “Merger Agreement”), among ECCA Holdings Corporation, a Delaware corporation, Merger
Sub and the Company. At the effective time of the Merger, the Company will enter into (i) a supplemental indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”) among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto, and the Trustee, pursuant
to which the Company will assume all of the obligations of Merger Sub under the Indenture and the Notes, (ii) the Purchase Agreement, and (iii) that certain Registration Rights Agreement relating to the Notes (the “Registration Rights

Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated dated as of February 4, 2005 (the “Escrow Agreement”). The Escrow Agreement was executed and delivered by each party thereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by
the Purchase Agreement. Capitalized terms defined in the Purchase Agreement and used (but not otherwise defined) herein are used herein as so defined. 

 In so acting, we have examined originals or copies (certified or otherwise identified to our

documents of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Company, and have made such inquiries of such officers and representatives, as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter set forth.

  
 In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all
signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed or photostatic copies and the

the Company. 
  
 Based on the foregoing, and subject to the
qualifications stated herein, we are of the opinion that the execution, delivery and performance of each Applicable Note Document by the Company has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company. 
  
 The opinions expressed herein are limited to the laws of the State of Texas,

 (e) The Escrow Agreement. 
  
 (f) A form of certificate representing the Notes. 
  
 The documents described in the foregoing clauses (a) through (f) are collectively referred to herein as the “Opinion
Documents”. 
  
 We have also reviewed the following:

  
 (a) The certificate of incorporation and by-laws of each of
the Subsidiary Guarantors listed in Column I of Schedule A hereto (the “Delaware Subsidiary Guarantors”), as amended through the date hereof. 
  

(b) Originals or copies of such other records of Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, certificates of public officials and of
officers of Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and agreements and other documents as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below. 
  
 In our review of the Opinion Documents and other documents, we have assumed: 
  
 (a) The genuineness of all signatures. 
  
 (b) The authenticity of the originals of the documents submitted to us.

  
 (c) The conformity to authentic originals of any documents
submitted to us as copies. 
  
 (d) As to matters of fact, the
truthfulness of the representations made in the Agreement and the other Opinion Documents and in certificates of public officials and officers of Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors. 
  
 (e) That each of the Opinion Documents is the legal, valid and binding
obligation of each party thereto, other than Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, enforceable against each such party in accordance with its terms. 
  
 (f) That: 
  
 (i) Each of Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors listed in Column II of Schedule A hereto (the “Non-Delaware
Subsidiary Guarantors”) is an entity duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization. 
  
 (ii) Each of Merger Sub, the Company and the Non-Delaware Subsidiary Guarantors has full power to execute, deliver and perform, and each
of Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors has duly executed and delivered (except to the extent Generally Applicable Law is applicable to such execution and delivery), the Opinion Documents to which it is a party. 

 J.P. Morgan Securities Inc.

 Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated 
 Page 3 
  

 (iii) The execution, delivery and performance by each of Merger Sub, the Company and
the Non-Delaware Subsidiary Guarantors of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary action (corporate or otherwise). 
  
 (iv) The execution, delivery and performance by each of Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary
Guarantors of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party do not: 
  
 (A) except with respect to the Delaware Subsidiary Guarantors, contravene its certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents; or 
  
 (B) except with respect to Generally Applicable Law, violate
any law, rule or regulation applicable to it; or 
  
 (C) result in any conflict with or breach any agreement or document binding on it of which you have knowledge, have received notice or have reason to know. 
  
 (v) Except with respect to Generally Applicable Law, no authorization, approval or other action by, and no
notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body or (to the extent the same is required under any agreement or document binding on it of which you have knowledge, have received notice or have reason to know) any other third
party is required for the due execution, delivery or performance by Merger Sub, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors of the Opinion Document to which it is a party or, if any such authorization, approval, consent, action, notice or filing is
required, it has been duly obtained, taken, given or made and is in full force and effect. 
  
 We have not independently established the validity of the foregoing assumptions. 
  
 “Generally Applicable Law” means the federal law of the United States of America, and the law of the State of New York (including the
rules or regulations promulgated thereunder or pursuant thereto), that a New York lawyer exercising customary professional diligence would reasonably be expected to recognize as being applicable to the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Opinion
Documents or the transactions governed by the Opinion Documents, and for purposes of assumption paragraph (f) above and our opinions in paragraphs 1 and 2 below, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing definition of Generally Applicable Law, the term “Generally Applicable Law” does not include any law, rule or regulation that is applicable to Merger Sub, 

 J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. 
 Banc of America Securities LLC 
 Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated 
 Page 4 
  

 
the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Opinion Documents or such transactions solely because such law, rule or regulation is part of a regulatory regime
applicable to any party to any of the Opinion Documents or any of its affiliates due to the specific assets or business of such party or such affiliate. 
  
 Based upon the foregoing and upon such other investigation as we have deemed necessary and subject to the qualifications set forth below, we are of the
opinion that: 
  
 1. Each of the Delaware Subsidiary Guarantors
has (a) the corporate power to execute, deliver and perform the Opinion Documents to which it is or will be a party and (b) has taken all corporate action necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of each Opinion Document to
which it is a party. 
  
 2. The execution and delivery by each of
the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors of each Opinion Document to which it is or will be a party do not, and the performance of its obligations thereunder will not, result in a violation of the certificates of incorporation or by-laws of the
Delaware Subsidiary Guarantors. 
  
 3. The Agreement has been duly
executed and delivered by each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors. 
  
 4. The Registration Rights Agreement has been duly executed and delivered and is the legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, enforceable against each of the Company
and the Subsidiary Guarantors in accordance with its terms. 
  
 5.
The Supplemental Indenture has been duly executed and delivered by each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, is the legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Company
and the Subsidiary Guarantors, enforceable against each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors in accordance with its terms. 
  
 6. The Notes are the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms and entitled to
the benefits of the Indenture. 
  
 7. The Guarantee of each
Subsidiary Guarantor is the legal, valid and binding obligation of each such Subsidiary Guarantor, enforceable against each such Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with its terms. 
  
 8. The Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, conforms in all material respects with the requirements of
the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. 
  
 Our opinions
expressed above are subject to the following qualifications: 
  
 (a) Our opinions in paragraphs 4, 5, 6 and 7 are subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally (including without limitation all laws

 (b) Our opinions in paragraphs 4, 5, 6 and 7 are also subject to the effect of general principles of

 Ladies and Gentlemen:

  
 We have acted as Texas local counsel to Eye Care Centers of
America, Inc., a Texas corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the sale by LFS-Merger Sub, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Merger Sub”), of $152,000,000 principal amount of its 10 3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015 (the “Notes”). The Notes have been sold to you by Merger Sub pursuant to that certain Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 28, 2005 (the “Purchase
Agreement”), between Merger Sub and you, as Representative of the several Initial Purchasers listed in Schedule 1 thereto. The Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of February 4, 2005 (the “Indenture”),
between Merger Sub and The Bank of New York, as trustee (the “Trustee”). The Notes are being offered in connection with the financing of the merger (the “Merger”) of Merger Sub with and into the Company pursuant to
an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 2, 2004 (the “Merger Agreement”), among ECCA Holdings Corporation, a Delaware corporation, Merger Sub and the Company. At the effective time of the Merger, the Company will enter
into (i) a supplemental indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”) among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto, and the Trustee, pursuant to which the Company will assume all of the obligations of Merger Sub under the
Indenture and the Notes, (ii) the Purchase Agreement, and (iii) that certain Registration Rights Agreement relating to the Notes (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The Purchase Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement and the
Supplemental Indenture are collectively referred to herein as the “Applicable Note Documents.” This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 7(a) of that certain Escrow and Security Agreement, dated as of February 4, 2004,
among Merger Sub, the Trustee, The Bank of New York, as securities intermediary and escrow agent, and J.P. Morgan Securities, Inc., Banc of America Securities LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated dated as of February 4,
2005 (the “Escrow Agreement”). The Escrow Agreement was executed and delivered by each party thereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. Capitalized terms defined in the Purchase Agreement and
used (but not otherwise defined) herein are used herein as so defined. 

 In so acting, we have examined originals or copies (certified or otherwise identified to our
satisfaction) of (i) the Indenture, (ii) the Merger Agreement, (iii) each Applicable Note Document, and (iv) such corporate and partnership records, agreements, documents and other instruments of the Company, and such certificates or comparable
documents of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Company, and have made such inquiries of such officers and representatives, as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter set forth.

  
 In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all
signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed or photostatic copies and the
authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. As to all questions of fact material to these opinions that have not been independently established, we have relied upon certificates or comparable documents of officers and representatives of
the Company. 
  
 Based on the foregoing, and subject to the
qualifications stated herein, we are of the opinion that the execution, delivery and performance of each Applicable Note Document by the Company has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company. 
  
 The opinions expressed herein are limited to the laws of the State of Texas,
and we express no opinion as to the effect on the matters covered by this letter of the federal laws of the United States or the laws of any other jurisdiction. The opinions expressed herein are rendered solely for your benefit in connection with
the transactions described herein. Those opinions may not be used or relied upon by any other person nor may this letter or any copies hereof be furnished to a third party, filed with a governmental agency, quoted, cited or otherwise referred to

upon, and assumed the accuracy of, representations and warranties of all parties contained in the Transaction Documents and certificates and oral or written statements and other information of or from representatives of the Subsidiary Guarantors and
others and assumed compliance on the part of all parties thereto with their respective covenants and agreements contained therein. With your permission, all assumptions and statements of reliance herein have been made without any independent
investigation or verification on our part except to the extent, if any, otherwise expressly stated, and we express no opinion with respect to the subject matter or accuracy of the assumptions or items upon which we have relied.

 The opinions set forth above are subject to the following qualifications and limitations:

purport to relate to liabilities resulting from or based upon any violation of federal or state securities or Blue Sky laws or negligence to the

extent a court determines that an indemnified party has been fraudulent or grossly negligent or (ii) any provision in the Transaction Documents that purports
to waive or otherwise restrict or deny access to claims, causes or action or legal or equitable remedies that may be asserted in any suit or other proceeding. 
  

B. We express no opinion as to state securities or “Blue Sky” laws, the laws of any jurisdiction outside the United States, anti-fraud laws,
the rules or regulations of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or the U.S. federal securities laws.

the calculations of Consolidated EBITDA, and minus, (a) to the extent included in the statement of such Consolidated Net Income for such period, the sum of (i) interest income, (ii) any extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring income or gains

such period in respect of items described in clauses (e) above subsequent to the fiscal quarter in which the relevant non-cash expenses or losses were reflected as a charge in the statement of Consolidated Net Income, all as determined on a
consolidated basis. For the purposes of calculating Consolidated EBITDA for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters (each, a “Reference Period”) pursuant to any determination of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio, (i) if at any
time during such Reference Period the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall have made any Material Disposition, the Consolidated EBITDA for such Reference Period shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if positive) attributable to
the property that is the subject of such Material Disposition for such Reference Period or increased by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if negative) attributable thereto for such Reference Period and (ii) if during such Reference Period
the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall have made a Material Acquisition, Consolidated EBITDA for such Reference Period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Material Acquisition occurred on the first day of
such Reference Period. In addition, Consolidated EBITDA will be calculated without giving effect to purchase accounting adjustments or any gain or loss recognized in determining Consolidated Net Income for such period in respect of post-retirement
benefits as a result of the application of FASB 106. As used in this definition, (i) “Material Acquisition” means any Acquisition that involves the payment of consideration by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in excess of $1,000,000; and
(ii) “Material Disposition” means any Disposition (in one transaction or a series of transactions, including through a merger) of all of the Equity Interests of any Subsidiary of the Borrower or all or substantially all of the property,
assets or business of any Subsidiary of the Borrower or of the assets constituting a business unit, line of business or division of the Borrower or any Subsidiary that involves the payment of consideration to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
in excess of $1,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes hereof, Consolidated EBITDA for the fiscal quarters of the Borrower ended January 2, 2005, September 25, 2004 and June 26, 2004, shall be $11,326,000, $13,437,000, and $11,163,000,
respectively. 
  
 “Consolidated EBITDAR”: for any
period, Consolidated EBITDA for such period plus the Consolidated Rental Expense of the Borrower for such period. 
  
 “Consolidated Interest and Rent Coverage Ratio”: for any period, the ratio of (a) Consolidated EBITDAR for such period to (b)
Consolidated Interest Expense plus Consolidated Rental Expense for such period. 
  
 “Consolidated Interest Expense”: for any period, total cash interest expense (including that attributable to Capital Lease Obligations) of the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and the ODP Corporations
(whether or not Subsidiaries) for such period with respect to all outstanding Indebtedness of the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and the ODP Corporations, whether or not Subsidiaries and to the extent consolidated in accordance with GAAP (including all
commissions, discounts and other fees and charges owed with respect to letters of credit and bankers’ acceptance financing and net costs under Swap Agreements in respect of interest rates to the extent such net costs are allocable to such
period in accordance with GAAP). 
  

 6 

 “Consolidated Leverage Ratio”: as at the last day of any period, the ratio of (a)
Consolidated Total Debt on such day to (b) Consolidated EBITDA for such period; provided that any Indebtedness in respect of the Outstanding Existing Notes shall be excluded from the amount of Consolidated Total Debt for purposes of
calculating the Consolidated Leverage Ratio for the fiscal quarter ending April 2, 2005 to the extent funds have been escrowed by the Borrower on the Closing Date for the redemption thereof. 
  
 “Consolidated Net Income”: for any period, the consolidated
net income (or loss) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP and the net income (or loss) of ODP Corporations, whether or not Subsidiaries to the extent consolidated in accordance with GAAP;
provided that there shall be excluded (a) the income (or deficit) of any Person (other than a Subsidiary of the Borrower) in which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has an ownership interest, except to the extent that any such income is
actually received by the Borrower or such Subsidiary in the form of dividends or similar distributions and (b) the undistributed earnings of any Subsidiary of the Borrower to the extent that the declaration or payment of dividends or similar

Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office an amount in immediately available funds equal to the amount of the Swingline Loan to be made by the Swingline Lender. The Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of
such Swingline Loan available to the Borrower on such Borrowing Date by depositing such proceeds in the account of the Borrower with the Administrative Agent on such Borrowing Date in immediately available funds. 
  
 (b) The Swingline Lender, at any time and from time to time in its sole and
absolute discretion may, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Swingline Lender to act on its behalf), on one Business Day’s notice given by the Swingline Lender no later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, request
each Revolving Lender to make, and each Revolving Lender hereby agrees to make, a Revolving Loan, in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Swingline Loans (the “Refunded Swingline

order to immediately pay the amount of such Refunded Swingline Loans to the extent amounts received from the Revolving Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full such Refunded Swingline Loans.

pursuant to Section 2.7(b), one of the events described in Section 8(f) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Borrower or if for any other reason, as determined by the Swingline Lender in its sole discretion, Revolving Loans may
not be made as contemplated by Section 2.7(b), each Revolving Lender shall, on the date such Revolving Loan was to have been made pursuant to the notice referred to in Section 2.7(b), purchase for cash an undivided participating interest in the then
outstanding Swingline Loans by paying to the Swingline Lender an amount (the “Swingline Participation Amount”) equal to (i) such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage times (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal
amount of Swingline Loans then outstanding that were to have been repaid with such Revolving Loans. 
  
 (d) Whenever, at any time after the Swingline Lender has received from any Revolving Lender such Lender’s Swingline Participation Amount, the
Swingline Lender receives any payment on 

  

 25 

 
account of the Swingline Loans, the Swingline Lender will distribute to such Lender its Swingline Participation Amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case
of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded and, in the case of principal and interest payments, to reflect such Lender’s pro rata portion
of such payment if such payment is not sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on all Swingline Loans then due); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swingline Lender is required to be
returned, such Revolving Lender will return to the Swingline Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by the Swingline Lender. 
  
 (e) Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make the Loans referred to in Section 2.7(b) and to purchase participating interests pursuant to Section
2.7(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Revolving Lender or the Borrower may have against the Swingline Lender,
the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5, (iii) any adverse change in the
condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Revolving Lender or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 
  
 2.8
Commitment Fees, etc. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee for the period from and including the date hereof to the last day of the Revolving Commitment Period,
computed at the Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the Available Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period for which payment is made, payable quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date, commencing on the first such
date to occur after the date hereof. 
  
 (b) The Borrower agrees
to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees in the amounts and on the dates as set forth in any fee agreements in connection with the Facilities with the Administrative Agent and to perform any other obligations contained therein. 
  
 2.9 Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitments. The Borrower
shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Revolving Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Revolving Commitments; provided that no such
termination or reduction of Revolving Commitments shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would
exceed the Total Revolving Commitments. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000, or a whole multiple thereof, and shall reduce permanently the Revolving Commitments then in effect. 
  
 2.10 Optional Prepayments. (a) The Borrower may at any time and from
time to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon irrevocable notice delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, three Business Days prior thereto, in the case of Eurodollar
Loans, and no later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, one Business Day prior thereto, in the case of ABR Loans, which notice shall specify the date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans;
provided, that if a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.20. Upon receipt of any such notice the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of Revolving Loans
that are ABR Loans and Swingline Loans) accrued interest to such 

  

 26 

 
date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of Term Loans and Revolving Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or whole multiples
of $100,000 in excess thereof. Partial prepayments of Swingline Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple thereof. 
  
 (b) Amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments made pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be applied in accordance with the first sentence of
Section 2.17(b) or Section 2.17(c), as the case may be, and in the case of any prepayment of the Term Loans to the installments thereof as directed by the Borrower. Each prepayment of the Loans under this Section 2.10 shall be accompanied by accrued
interest (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans and Swingline Loans) to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid. 
  
 2.11 Mandatory Prepayments. (a) If (i) any Specified Capital Stock shall be issued by any Group Member, an amount equal to 50% of the Net Cash
Proceeds thereof shall be applied within five Business Days after the date of such issuance toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(d), and (ii) any Indebtedness shall be issued or incurred by any Group Member (excluding
any Indebtedness permitted under Section 7.2), an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied within five Business Days after the date of such issuance or incurrence toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in
Section 2.11(d) 
  
 (b) If on any date any Group Member shall
receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Recovery Event then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied within five Business Days after such date toward the prepayment of the
Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(d); provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds of Asset Sales that may be excluded from the foregoing requirement pursuant to a Reinvestment Notice shall not
exceed $2,000,000 in any fiscal year of the Borrower, (ii) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds of Recovery Events that may be excluded from the foregoing requirement pursuant to a Reinvestment Notice shall not exceed $10,000,000 in any fiscal year of
the Borrower and (iii) on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in Section
2.11(d). 
  
 (c) If, for any fiscal year of the Borrower
commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005, there shall be Excess Cash Flow, the Borrower shall, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, apply an amount equal to (x) the ECF Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow minus
(y) the aggregate amount of all prepayments of Revolving Loans during such fiscal year to the extent accompanying permanent optional reductions of the Revolving Commitments and all optional prepayments of the Term Loans during such fiscal year,
toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(d). Each such prepayment shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) no later than five Business Days after the earlier of (i) the date on
which the financial statements of the Borrower referred to in Section 6.1(a), for the fiscal year with respect to which such prepayment is made, are required to be delivered to the Lenders and (ii) the date such financial statements are actually
delivered. 
  
 (d) Amounts to be applied in connection with
prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.11 shall be applied to the prepayment of the Term Loans in accordance with the first sentence of Section 2.17(b), and the application to the installments thereof shall be, first, to the scheduled
installments of the Term Loans set forth in Section 2.3 occurring within the next twelve months following the date specified for such prepayment in direct order of maturity and, second, to the remaining installments pro rata
based upon the then remaining principal amounts thereof. Each prepayment of the Term Loans under Section 2.11 shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid. 
  

 27 

 2.12 Conversion and Continuation Options. (a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert
Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date, provided that any such
conversion of Eurodollar Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice
of such election no later than 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor), provided that no ABR Loan under a
particular Facility may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have determined in its or their sole
discretion not to permit such conversions. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. 
  
 (b) Any Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving
irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans, provided
that no Eurodollar Loan under a particular Facility may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have determined in
its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuations, and provided, further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to
the preceding proviso such Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

  
 2.13 Limitations on Eurodollar Tranches.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after
giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than ten Eurodollar Tranches shall be
outstanding at any one time. 
  
 2.14 Interest Rates and
Payment Dates. (a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin. 
  
 (b) Each ABR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the ABR
plus the Applicable Margin. 
  
 (c) (i) If all or a portion of the
principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), all outstanding Loans and Reimbursement Obligations (whether or not overdue) shall bear interest at a
rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of the Loans, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2% or (y) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations, the rate applicable to ABR
Loans under the Revolving Facility plus 2%, and (ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or any commitment fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated
maturity, by 

  

 28 

 
acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant
Facility plus 2% (or, in the case of any such other amounts that do not relate to a particular Facility, the rate then applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility plus 2%), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii)
above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment). 
  
 (d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section
shall be payable from time to time on demand. 
  
 2.15
Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) Interest and fees payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to ABR Loans the rate of interest on which is calculated
on the basis of the Prime Rate, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the
relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on
which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate. 
  
 (b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent
pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing
the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.14(a). 
  
 2.16 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period: 
  
 (a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which
determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or 

 
 (b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice
from the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the relevant Facility that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by
such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period, 
  
 the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans under the relevant
Facility requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans, (y) any Loans under the relevant Facility that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be
continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, to ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no
further Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans under the relevant Facility to Eurodollar Loans. 
  

 29 

 2.17 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders
hereunder, each payment by the Borrower on account of any commitment fee and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Term Percentages or Revolving Percentages, as the case may
be, of the relevant Lenders. 
  
 (b) Each payment (including each
prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Term Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans then held by the Term Lenders. Subject to Sections
2.10(b) and 2.11(d), the amount of each principal prepayment of the Term Loans shall be applied to reduce the then remaining installments of the Term Loans pro rata based upon the respective then remaining principal amounts thereof.
Amounts prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed. 
  
 (c) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving
Loans then held by the Revolving Lenders. 
  
 (d) All payments
(including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the due date
thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the Funding Office, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as
received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan
becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event
such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such
extension. 
  
 (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been
notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making
such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the
required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon, at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the
Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to
any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three
Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility, on demand, from the Borrower;
provided, that no such recovery from the Borrower shall affect, diminish or otherwise prejudice any claim the Borrower may have against any such Lender. 
  

(f) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by the Borrower
hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower 

  

 30 

 
is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their
respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on
demand, from each Lender to which any amount was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to
limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower. 
  
 2.18 Requirements of Law. (a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not
having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof: 
  
 (i) shall subject any Lender to any additional tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any
Application or any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by Section 2.19 and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such
Lender); 
  
 (ii) shall impose, modify or hold
applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by,
any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate; or 
  
 (iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition; 
  
 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount that such Lender deems to be material, of
making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable by such Lender hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly
pay such Lender, upon its written demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it
shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. 
  
 (b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation
or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the
date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such
Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount reasonably deemed by such
Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction. 
  

 31 

 (c) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender
to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this
Section for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have
a retroactive effect, then such six-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the
Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 2.19
Taxes. (a) All payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties,
charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on the
Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of a present or former connection between the Administrative Agent or such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority
thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from the Administrative Agent or such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan
Document). If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) or Other Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or
any Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes) interest
or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement, provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Lender with respect to any
Non-Excluded Taxes (i) that are attributable to such Lender’s (or a Participant’s) failure to comply with the requirements of paragraph (d) or (e) of this Section or (ii) that are United States withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable
to such Lender (or Participant) at the time such Lender (or Participant) becomes a party to this Agreement (or a Participant), except to the extent that such Lender’s (or Participant’s) assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of
assignment, to receive additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to this paragraph. 
  
 (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
  
 (c) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by the
Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the relevant Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the
Borrower showing payment thereof. If the Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary
evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure. 
  
 (d) Each Lender (or Transferee) that is not a “U.S. Person” as
defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been
purchased) two copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 

  

 32 

 
871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit F and a Form
W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by the Borrower under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the
related participation). In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any
time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision
of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver. 
  
 (e) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any
Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.19, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the
extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.19 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent
or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay
the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay
such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the
Borrower or any other Person. 
  
 (f) The agreements in this
Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 2.20 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or expense that such Lender may
sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar
Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so
borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest
Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of
interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market. A certificate as to any amounts
payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable
hereunder. 
  

 33 

 2.21 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving
rise to the operation of Section 2.18 or 2.19(a) with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans
affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no
economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18 or 2.19(a).

  
 2.22 Replacement of Lenders. The Borrower shall be
permitted to replace any Lender that (a) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.18 or 2.19(a), (b) defaults in its obligation to make Loans hereunder, with a replacement financial institution, or (c) does not agree to any
consent, waiver or amendment in accordance with the terms of Section 10.1 and the Supermajority Lenders have agreed to such consent, waiver or amendment; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any applicable Requirement of
Law, (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) prior to any such replacement, such Lender shall not have eliminated the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.18
or 2.19(a), (iv) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (v) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section
2.20 if any Eurodollar Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (vi) the replacement financial institution, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent, (vii) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to
therein), (viii) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.18 or 2.19(a), as the case may be, and (ix) any such replacement shall not be deemed to
be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. 
  
 SECTION 3. LETTERS OF CREDIT 
  
 3.1 L/C Commitment. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving
Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to issue letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower on any Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period in such form as may be approved from time to
time by the Issuing Lender; provided that the Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment or (ii) the aggregate amount
of the Available Revolving Commitments would be less than zero. Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars and (ii) expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (y) the date that is five
Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date, provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in
clause (y) above). The letters of credit issued under the Existing Credit Agreement and listed on Schedule 3.1(a) shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender as of the Closing Date (the “Existing Letters of
Credit”). 
  
 (b) The Issuing Lender shall not at any
time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law. 
  

 34 

 3.2 Procedure for Issuance of Letter of Credit. The Borrower may from time to time request that
the Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to the Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein an Application therefor, completed to the reasonable satisfaction of the Issuing Lender, and such other certificates,
documents and other papers and information as the Issuing Lender may reasonably request. Upon receipt of any Application, the Issuing Lender will process such Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to
it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall the Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than three Business
Days after its receipt of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be
agreed to by the Issuing Lender and the Borrower. The Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower promptly following the issuance thereof. The Issuing Lender shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent, which
shall in turn promptly furnish to the Lenders, notice of the issuance of each Letter of Credit (including the amount thereof). 
  
 3.3 Fees and Other Charges. (a) The Borrower will pay a fee on all outstanding Letters of Credit at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin
then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Loans under the Revolving Facility, shared ratably among the Revolving Lenders and payable quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the
Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee of 0.25% per annum on the undrawn and unexpired amount of each Letter of Credit, payable quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date. 
  
 (b) In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse
the Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by the Issuing Lender in issuing, negotiating, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit. 
  
 3.4 L/C Participations. (a) The Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to
grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the Issuing Lender, on the terms and
conditions set forth below, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage in the Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter
of Credit and the amount of each draft paid by the Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant agrees with the Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which the Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the
Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender upon demand at the Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving
Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed. Each L/C Participant’s obligation to pay such amount shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any
setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such L/C Participant may have against the Issuing Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of
Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower,
any other Loan Party or any other L/C Participant or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing 
  

(b) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of
any payment made by the Issuing 

  

 35 

 
Lender under any Letter of Credit is paid to the Issuing Lender within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay
to the Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is
immediately available to the Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant
pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not made available to the Issuing Lender by such L/C Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, the Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, such
amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility. A certificate of the Issuing Lender submitted to any L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this
Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
  
 (c) Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(a), the Issuing Lender
receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by the Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Issuing Lender will
distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by the Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by the Issuing Lender, such L/C
Participant shall return to the Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it. 
  
 3.5 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower. If any draft is paid under any Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Lender for
the amount of (a) the draft so paid and (b) any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with such payment, not later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following
the day that the Borrower receives notice of such draft. Each such payment shall be made to the Issuing Lender at its address for notices referred to herein in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Interest shall be payable on any such amounts
from the date on which the relevant draft is paid until payment in full at the rate set forth in (x) until the Business Day next succeeding the date of the relevant notice, Section 2.14(b) and (y) thereafter, Section 2.14(c). 
  
 3.6 Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations under this
Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower may have or have had against the Issuing Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit
or any other Person. The Borrower also agrees with the Issuing Lender that the Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the
validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any
other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee. The Issuing Lender shall not be liable for any error, omission,
interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender. The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or
documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Lender to the Borrower. 
  

 36 

 3.7 Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of
Credit, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower of the date and amount thereof. The responsibility of the Issuing Lender to the Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition
to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are substantially in conformity
with such Letter of Credit. 
  
 3.8 Applications. To the
extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 3, the provisions of this Section 3 shall apply. 
  
 SECTION 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
  
 To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and issue or
participate in the Letters of Credit, Holdings and the Borrower hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that:

have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 4.4 Power; Authorization;
Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to obtain extensions of credit hereunder. Each

conditions of this Agreement. No material consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the Merger and the extensions of credit
hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, except (i) consents, authorizations, filings and notices described in Schedule 4.4 and (ii) the filings referred to in
Section 4.19. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each

creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law). 
  
 4.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the issuance of Letters of Credit, the
borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law or any material Contractual Obligation of any Group Member and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their
respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created by the Security Documents). 
  
 4.6 Litigation. No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is

4.7 No Default. Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.7, no Group Member is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations
in any respect that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

for any such claim. The use of Intellectual Property by each Group Member does not infringe on the rights of any Person in any material respect. 
  
 4.10 Taxes. Each Group Member has filed or caused to be filed all Federal, material state and other material tax returns that are required to be
filed and has paid all material taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its property and all other taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any Governmental

this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and (ii) the oral presentations made by any Loan Party or the Sponsors on behalf of any Loan Party to the group of potential Lenders at the meeting of the Sponsors, ECCA and the prospective lenders held on
January 19, 2004, in each case, as of the date such written or oral statement, information, document or certificate was so furnished or made (or, in the case of the Confidential Information Memorandum, as of the date of this Agreement), when taken
as a whole, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not materially misleading. The projections and pro forma financial
information contained in the materials referenced above are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of the Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Lenders that such financial information
as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount. As of the date
hereof, the representations and warranties contained in the Merger Documents are true and correct in all material respects. As of the Closing Date, there is no fact known to any Loan Party that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect that has not been disclosed herein or in filings with the SEC, in the other Loan Documents, in the Confidential Information Memorandum or in any other documents, certificates and statements furnished to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents. 
  
 4.19 Security Documents. (a) The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of
the Lenders, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws
affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law). In the case of the Pledged Stock described in the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement, when stock certificates representing such Pledged Stock are delivered to the Administrative Agent, and in the case of the other Collateral described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, when financing statements specified on
Schedule 4.19(a) in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 4.19(a), the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan
Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), to the extent the filing of such financing statements can perfect such Lien, in each case prior and superior
in right to any other Person (except, in the case of Collateral other than Pledged Stock, Liens permitted by Section 7.3). 
  

 41 

 (b) Upon the execution and delivery thereof, each of the Mortgages will be effective to create in favor
of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a legal, valid and enforceable Lien on the Mortgaged Properties described therein and proceeds thereof (except as enforceability may limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law)), and each such Mortgage will, when such
Mortgage is filed or recorded in the appropriate offices, constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the Mortgaged Properties and the proceeds thereof, as security for the
Obligations (as defined in the relevant Mortgage), in each case, prior and superior in right to any other Person, except with respect to Liens permitted by Section 7.3. 
  
 4.20 Solvency. The Loan Parties, taken as a whole, are and after giving effect to the Merger and the incurrence of
all Indebtedness and obligations being incurred in connection herewith and therewith will be and will continue to be, Solvent. 
  
 4.21 Senior Indebtedness. The Obligations constitute “Senior Indebtedness” of the Borrower under and as defined in the Senior
Subordinated Note Indenture. The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement constitute “Guarantor Senior Indebtedness” of such Subsidiary Guarantor under and as defined in the Senior Subordinated
Note Indenture. 
  
 4.22 Regulation H. No Mortgage
encumbers improved real property that is located in an area that has been identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as an area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available under the National
Flood Insurance Act of 1968. 
  
 4.23 Certain Documents.
The Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent a complete and correct copy of the Merger Documents, the Senior Subordinated Note Indenture and the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation Materials, including any material amendments,
supplements or modifications with respect to any of the foregoing. 
  
 4.24 LFS-Merger Sub. As of the Closing Date, LFS-Merger Sub has not incurred, created, assumed or suffered to exist any Indebtedness or other liabilities or financial obligations, except (a) as permitted pursuant to the Merger
Documents to which it is a party and (b) Indebtedness, liabilities and financial obligations that would otherwise be permitted hereunder.

to become payable; provided, that a default, event or condition described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph (e) shall not at any time constitute an Event of Default unless, at such time, one or more defaults, events or conditions

 62

defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) involving any Plan, (ii) any “accumulated funding deficiency” (as defined in Section 302 of ERISA), whether or not waived, shall exist with respect to any Single Employer Plan or

aggregate of the total voting power of the Voting Stock of Holdings, whether as a result of the issuance of securities of Holdings, any merger, consolidation, liquidation or dissolution of Holdings, any direct or indirect transfer of securities by

 then, and in any such event, (A) if such event is an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or (ii) of paragraph (f) above with respect to the Borrower, automatically
the Commitments shall immediately terminate and the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all amounts of L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of
the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) shall immediately become due and payable, and (B) if such event is any other Event of Default, either or both of the following actions may be taken: (i)
with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower declare the Revolving Commitments to be terminated forthwith, whereupon
the Revolving Commitments shall immediately terminate; and (ii) with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower, declare
the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all amounts of L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have

the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of
Credit. Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been
fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all Reimbursement Obligations shall
have been satisfied and all other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to the Borrower (or such other Person as
may be lawfully entitled thereto). Except as expressly provided above in this Section, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower. 
  
 SECTION 9. THE AGENTS 
  
 9.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and
appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the
provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such
other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the 

  

 64 

 
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender,
and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. 
  
 9.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of
its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for
the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. 
  
 9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates
shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and
nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements,
representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agents
under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party a party
thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party. 
  
 9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any
instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made
by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Holdings or the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and
treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in
failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders) as it deems appropriate or
it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully
protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders), and such request and any action taken or
failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. 
  
 9.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of
Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender, Holdings or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the
event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of 

  

 65 

 
Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders); provided that unless and until
the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem
advisable in the best interests of the Lenders. 
  
 9.6
Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates have made any representations or
warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender
represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business,
operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will,
independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking
action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and
their Affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with
any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of the
Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates. 
  
 9.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by Holdings or the Borrower
and without limiting the obligation of Holdings or the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is
sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Aggregate Exposure Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any
action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall
survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 9.8 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an
Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may
exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity. 
  

 66 

 9.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent
upon 20 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor
agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or Section 8(f) with respect to the Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such
appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the
parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 20 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring
Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a
successor agent as provided for above. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
  
 9.10 Co-Syndication Agents. The Co-Syndication Agents shall have no duties or responsibilities hereunder in their capacities as such. 
  
 SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 10.1 Amendments and Waivers. Neither this Agreement, any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or
modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1. The Required Lenders and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and each Loan
Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such
instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall
(i) forgive the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, extend the scheduled date of any amortization payment in respect of any Term Loan, reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder (except
(x) in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Majority Facility Lenders of each adversely affected Facility) and (y) that any amendment or
modification of defined terms used in the financial covenants in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or fees for purposes of this clause (i)) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, or increase the
amount or extend the expiration date of any Lender’s Revolving Commitment, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; (ii) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender expressly provided for herein
or in any other Loan Document without the written consent of such Lender; (iii) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (except as set forth in Section 

  

 67 

 
6.12), release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their obligations under the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, in each case without the written consent of all Lenders; (iv) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.17 without the written consent of the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of each Facility adversely

without the written consent of the Administrative Agent; (vii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.6 or 2.7 without the written consent of the Swingline Lender; or (viii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 3 without the
written consent of the Issuing Lender. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future
holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default
waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the
Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement, to increase the amounts available thereunder and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding
thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and Revolving Extensions of Credit and the accrued interest and fees in respect
thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and Majority Facility Lenders. 
  

In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the
Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing, replacement or modification of all outstanding Term Loans (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche hereunder

in connection therewith to be capitalized into or funded with increases in such principal), (b) the Applicable Margin for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the Applicable Margin for such Refinanced Term Loans and (c) the weighted
average life to maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing.

the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of the Loans or the violation of,
noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of any Group Member or any of the Properties and the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of legal counsel in connection with claims, actions or
proceedings by any Indemnitee against any Loan Party under any Loan

Document (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided, that the Borrower shall have
no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower agrees not to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause
its Subsidiaries to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to
Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee solely by virtue of such Indemnitee being a “Lender” under this Agreement, except to the extent that the facts and circumstances underlying such
claim are caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. All amounts due under this Section 10.5 shall be payable not later than 10 days after written demand therefor. Statements payable by the Borrower pursuant to this
Section 10.5 shall be submitted to Douglas C. Shepard (Telephone No. (210) 524-6996) (Telecopy No. (210) 524-6538), at the address of the Borrower set forth in Section 10.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the
Borrower in a written notice to the Administrative Agent. The agreements in this Section 10.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. (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) the Borrower may not, other than in
accordance with the acknowledgment executed and delivered by ECCA pursuant to Section 6.12 hereof, 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 the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder (or interests therein) except in accordance with this Section. 
  
 (b)(i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any
Lender may assign to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the
prior written consent of: 
  
 (A) the Borrower
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund (as defined below) or, if an Event of Default under Section
8(a) or (f) has occurred and is continuing, any other Person; and 
  
 (B) the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved
Fund. 
  
 (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the
following additional conditions: 
  
 (A) except
in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans under any Facility, the amount of the Commitments 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 $2,500,000 (or, in the case of the Term
Facility, $1,000,000) unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that (1) no such consent of 

  

 71 

 
the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or (f) has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in
respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if any; 
  
 (B) 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; and 
  
 (C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver
to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire. 
  
 For the purposes of this Section 10.6, “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the
ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 
  
 (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph
(b)(iv) below, 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 2.18, 2.19, 2.20 and 10.5).
Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.6 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 an agent of the Borrower, 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 Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive,
and the Borrower, the 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 Borrower and any Lender at any 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 the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, 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 Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the

  

 72 

 
performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, 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 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 may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment,
modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second sentence of Section 10.1 and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the
Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18, 2.19 and 2.20 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 10.7(b) as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 10.7(a) as though it were a Lender. 
  
 (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Section 2.18 or 2.19 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written
consent. Any Participant that is a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.19 unless such Participant complies with Section 2.19(d). 
  

(d) Any Lender may, in accordance with applicable law, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this
Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, 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. 
  
 (e) The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring
Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in paragraph (d) above. 
  
 (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign any or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and
without regard to the limitations set forth in Section 10.6(b). Each of Holdings, the Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in instituting
against a Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note
issued by such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to
institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance. 
  
 10.7 Adjustments; Set-off. (a) Except to the extent that this Agreement expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular Facility, if any Lender (a
“Benefitted Lender”) shall, at any time after the Loans and other amounts payable hereunder shall immediately become due and payable pursuant to Section 8, receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or
receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral
received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other Lender, such Benefitted Lender shall purchase for 

  

 73 

 
cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of the Obligations owing to each such other Lender, or shall provide such other Lenders
with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion
of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. 
  
 (b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law,
during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to Holdings or the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by Holdings and the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon
any amount becoming due and payable by Holdings or the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or
demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any
branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of Holdings or the Borrower, as the case may be. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender,
provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. 
  
 10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all
of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart
hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
  
 10.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in
any other jurisdiction. 
  
 10.10 Integration. This
Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations
or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents. 
  
 10.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
  
 10.12 Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each of Holdings and the Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: 
  
 (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action
or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York,
the courts of the United States for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof; 
  

 74 

 (b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives
any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same; 
  
 (c) agrees that service of process in any such action or
proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to Holdings or the Borrower, as the case may be at its address set forth in Section 10.2 or at such
other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto; 
  
 (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the
right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and 
  
 (e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages. 
  
 10.13 Acknowledgements. Each of Holdings and the Borrower hereby
acknowledges that: 
  
 (a) it has been advised by
counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; 
  
 (b) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to Holdings or the Borrower arising out of
or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between Administrative Agent and Lenders, on one hand, and Holdings and the Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that
of debtor and creditor; and 
  
 (c) no joint
venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders or among Holdings, the Borrower and the Lenders. 
  
 10.14 Releases of Guarantees and Liens. (a) Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender (without requirement of notice to or consent of any Lender except as required by Section 10.1) to take any
action requested by the Borrower having the effect of releasing any Collateral or guarantee obligations (i) to the extent necessary to permit consummation of any transaction not prohibited by any Loan Document or that has been consented to in
accordance with Section 10.1 or (ii) under the circumstances described in paragraph (b) below. 
  
 (b) At such time as the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations and the other obligations under the Loan Documents (other than obligations under or in respect of Swap Agreements) and other than contingent indemnification
obligations shall have been paid in full, the Commitments have been terminated and no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding, the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Security Documents, and the Security Documents and all
obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party under the Security Documents shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person.
