Exhibit 10.1

EXECUTION COPY

     AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT AGREEMENT dated as of November 5, 2010
(this “Agreement”), to the CREDIT AGREEMENT dated as of July 25, 2007 (the
“Original Credit Agreement”), among CHS/COMMUNITY HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC., a
Delaware corporation, COMMUNITY HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC., a Delaware
corporation, the Subsidiary Guarantors listed on the signature pages
hereto, the Lenders listed on the signature pages hereto and CREDIT SUISSE
AG, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

     The Borrower has requested that the Original Credit Agreement be amended and restated in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit A (as so amended and restated, the “Restated Credit
Agreement”), to, among other things (a) extend the maturity of, and modify the pricing terms with
respect to, a portion of the Existing Term Loans and (b) permit the Borrower and its Subsidiaries,
subject to conditions set forth in the Restated Credit Agreement, to incur Indebtedness that is
secured on a pari passu basis with the Obligations.

     On the Restatement Effective Date (as defined below), certain of the terms of the Existing
Term Loans of each Term Lender that approves this Agreement and elects to convert all (or a
portion) of its Existing Term Loans into Extended Term Loans by executing and delivering to the
Administrative Agent (or its counsel), on or prior to 6:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 4,
2010 (the “Delivery Time”), a signature page to this Agreement designating itself as an “Extended
Term Loan Lender” will be modified as set forth herein.

     Accordingly, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as
follows:

          SECTION 1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein
(including the preliminary statement hereto) shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the
Restated Credit Agreement. The provisions of Section 1.02 of the Restated Credit Agreement are
hereby incorporated by reference herein, mutatis mutandis.

          SECTION 2. Amendment and Restatement of the Credit Agreement. Effective as of the
Restatement Effective Date, the Original Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

          SECTION 3. Amendment and Restatement of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.
Effective as of the Restatement Effective Date, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (as in
effect immediately prior to the Restatement Effective Date,

 

 

the “Existing Guarantee and Collateral Agreement”) is hereby amended and restated in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit B (as so amended and restated, the “Restated Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement”).

          SECTION 4. Concerning the Term Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set
forth herein and in the Restated Credit Agreement, as of the Restatement Effective Date, each
Extended Term Loan Lender agrees that (i) 100% of its Existing Term Loans or (ii) such lesser
principal amount of its Existing Term Loans as may be specified by such Extended Term Loan Lender
on its executed counterpart of this Agreement will be converted into Extended Term Loans of like
outstanding principal amount, provided that, in the event that the aggregate principal amount of
the Existing Term Loans which Extended Term Loan Lenders agree to convert into Extended Term Loans
in accordance with the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii) (such aggregate Existing Term Loans so agreed
to be extended, the “Designated Existing Term Loans”) immediately prior to such conversion is
greater than $1,500,000,000, the Borrower may (but shall not be obligated to) elect, by written
notice to the Administrative Agent, to cause less than all (but not less than $1,500,000,000
aggregate principal amount) of the Designated Existing Term Loans to become Extended Term Loans,
such allocation to be made on a pro rata basis among the Extended Term Loan Lenders, such that the
same proportion of each Extended Term Loan Lender’s Designated Existing Term Loans are so converted
into Extended Term Loans (such election, a “Pro Rata Allocation Election”).

          (b) In the event the Borrower makes a Pro Rata Allocation Election, if any Extended Term Loan
Lender holds, immediately prior to the conversion of such Lender’s Existing Term Loans into
Extended Term Loans, both (i) Existing Funded Term Loans and (ii) Existing Delayed Draw Term Loans,
then a portion of each shall be converted into Extended Term Loans, such that (A) the ratio of
Non-Extended Funded Term Loans to Non-Extended Delayed Draw Term Loans held by such Lender
immediately following such conversion is the same as (B) the ratio of Existing Funded Term Loans to
Existing Delayed Draw Term Loans held by such Lender had been immediately prior to such conversion.

          (c) In the event the Borrower makes a Pro Rata Allocation Election, then, if any Extended Term
Loan Lender holds, immediately prior to the conversion of such Lender’s Existing Term Loans into
Extended Term Loans, Existing Funded Term Loans or Existing Delayed Draw Term Loans (i) of more
than one Type or (ii) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, having more than one Interest Period, then a
portion of such Existing Funded Term Loans or Existing Delayed Draw Term Loans, as applicable, (A)
of each such Type and (B) if applicable, subject to each such Interest Period, shall be converted
into Extended Term Loans, in each case such that, (1) the proportion of such Extended Term Loan
Lender’s aggregate Non-Extended Funded Term Loans or Non-Extended Delayed Draw Term Loans, as
applicable, constituted by any Loans that are of the same Type and subject to the same Interest
Period immediately following such conversion shall be the same as (2) the proportion of such
Extended Term Loan Lender’s total Existing Funded Term Loans or Existing Delayed Draw Term Loans,
as applicable, constituted by Loans of such Type and subject to such Interest Period had been
immediately prior to such conversion.

 

 

          (d) The Existing Funded Term Loans of any Lender that are not converted into Extended Term
Loans shall constitute “Non-Extended Funded Term Loans”, and the Existing Delayed Draw Term Loans
of any Lender that are not converted into Extended Term Loans shall constitute “Non-Extended
Delayed Draw Term Loans”, and shall in each case, following the Restatement Effective Date,
continue to be in effect and outstanding under the Restated Credit Agreement on the terms and
conditions set forth therein.

          (e) None of the transactions set forth in this Section 4 shall be deemed to be a conversion of
any Term Loan into a Loan of a different Type or with a different Interest Period or a payment or
prepayment of any Term Loan, and the parties hereto hereby agree that no breakage or similar costs
will accrue solely as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Section 4.

          SECTION 5. Representations and Warranties. Each of Parent, the Borrower and each
Subsidiary Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to each other party hereto that:

          (a) The representations and warranties set forth in Article III of the Restated Credit
Agreement and in each other Loan Document are true and correct in all material respects on and as
of the Restatement Effective Date as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent that
such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such
representations and warranties were true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier
date.

          (b) No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

          (c) None of the Security Documents in effect on the Restatement Effective Date will be
rendered invalid, non-binding or unenforceable against any Loan Party as a result of this
Agreement. The Guarantees created under such Security Documents will continue to guarantee the
Obligations (as the Obligations are modified hereunder) to the same extent as they guaranteed the
Obligations immediately prior to the Restatement Effective Date. The Liens created under such
Security Documents will continue to secure the Obligations (as the Obligations are modified
hereunder), and, subject to clause (g) below, will continue to be perfected, in each case, to the
same extent as they secured the Obligations or were perfected immediately prior to the Restatement
Effective Date.

          SECTION 6. Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective on and as of the date
on which each of the following conditions precedent is satisfied (such date, the “Restatement
Effective Date”):

          (a) The Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof duly executed and
delivered by Parent, the Borrower, each Subsidiary Loan Party and the Required Lenders.

          (b) The Administrative Agent shall have received a favorable written opinion of (i) Kirkland &
Ellis LLP, counsel for Parent and the Borrower, substantially to

 

 

the effect set forth on Exhibit C-1 and (ii) the general counsel of Parent,
substantially to the effect set forth in Exhibit C-2.

          (c) The Administrative Agent shall have received (i) a certificate as to the good standing of
each Loan Party as of a recent date, from the Secretary of State of its state of organization; (ii)
a certificate of the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of each Loan Party dated the Restatement
Effective Date and certifying (A) that attached thereto is a true and complete copy of (1) the
by-laws (or equivalent thereof) and (2) the certificate or articles of incorporation, certified as
of a recent date by the Secretary of State of the applicable state of organization, in each case of
such Loan Party as in effect on the Restatement Effective Date and at all times since a date prior
to the date of the resolutions described in clause (B) below, (or, if such by-laws (or equivalent
thereof) or certificate or articles of incorporation have not been amended or modified since any
delivery thereof to the Administrative Agent on the Closing Date, certifying that no such amendment
or modification has occurred), (B) that attached thereto is a true and complete copy of resolutions
duly adopted by the Board of Directors (or equivalent thereof) of such Loan Party authorizing the
execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which such person is a party, and that
such resolutions have not been modified, rescinded or amended and are in full force and effect and
(C) as to the incumbency and specimen signature of each officer executing this Agreement or any
other document delivered in connection herewith on behalf of such Loan Party; (iii) a certificate
of another officer as to the incumbency and specimen signature of the Secretary or Assistant
Secretary executing the certificate pursuant to clause (ii) above; and (iv) such other documents as
the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

          (d) The Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate, dated the Restatement
Effective Date and signed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower, confirming compliance with the
conditions precedent set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c) of Section 4.01 of the Restated Credit
Agreement.

          (e) The Administrative Agent shall have received all Fees and other amounts due and payable on
or prior to the Restatement Effective Date, including, to the extent invoiced, reimbursement or
payment of all out-of-pocket expenses required to be reimbursed or paid by the Borrower hereunder
or under any other Loan Document.

          (f) The Security Documents shall be in full force and effect on the Restatement Effective
Date, and the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties shall have a security interest in
the Collateral of the type and priority described in each Security Document.

          (g) Each of the Security Documents relating to each of the Mortgaged Properties shall be in
full force and effect, each of such Mortgaged Properties shall not be subject to any Lien other
than those permitted under Section 6.02 of the Restated Credit Agreement, each of such Security
Documents shall have been filed and recorded in the recording office as specified on Schedule
3.19(c) of the Restated Credit Agreement (or a lender’s title insurance policy, in form and
substance reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent, insuring such Security Document as a first
lien on such Mortgaged

 

 

Property (subject to any Lien permitted by Section 6.02 of the Restated Credit Agreement)
shall have been received by the Collateral Agent) and, in connection therewith, the Collateral
Agent shall have received evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of each such filing and
recordation and the Collateral Agent shall have received such other documents, including a policy
or policies of title insurance issued by a nationally recognized title insurance company, together
with such endorsements, coinsurance and reinsurance as may be requested by the Collateral Agent,
insuring the Mortgages as valid first liens on the Mortgaged Properties, free of Liens other than
those permitted under Section 6.02 of the Restated Credit Agreement, together with such legal
opinions as are required to be furnished pursuant to the terms of the Mortgages or as may be
reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this paragraph (g)
may be satisfied on or prior to the date occurring 90 days after the Restatement Effective Date, or
such later date as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent.

          (h) The Administrative Agent shall have received payment from the Borrower, for the account of
each Lender that transmits its executed counterpart of this Agreement to the Administrative Agent
(or its counsel) on or prior to the Delivery Time, of an amendment fee in an amount equal to 0.10%
of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of such Lender as
of the Restatement Effective Date. Such fees shall be payable in immediately available funds and,
once paid, shall not be refundable in whole or in part.

The Administrative Agent shall notify the parties hereto of the Restatement Effective Date and such
notice shall be conclusive and binding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall not
become effective unless each of the foregoing conditions is satisfied at or prior to 5:00 p.m. New
York City time on November 5, 2010.

          SECTION 7. Effect of this Agreement. (a) Except as expressly set forth herein, this
Agreement shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of, or otherwise
affect the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other Secured Party
under the Restated Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, and shall not alter, modify, amend
or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained
in the Restated Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, all of which are ratified and affirmed
in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect. Nothing herein shall be deemed to
entitle any Loan Party to a consent to, or a waiver, amendment, modification or other change of,
any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Original Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances.

          (b) On and after the Restatement Effective Date, each reference in the Restated Credit
Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof”, “herein” or words of like import, and each
reference to the ‘Credit Agreement” in any other Loan Document, shall be deemed a reference to the
Restated Credit Agreement. Additionally, each reference in the Restated Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof”, “herein” or words of like import, and each
reference to the

 

 

Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in any other Loan Document, shall be deemed a reference to
the Restated Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.

          (c) This Agreement shall constitute a “Loan Document” for all purposes of the Original Credit
Agreement, the Restated Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

          SECTION 8. Reaffirmation. Each of Parent, the Borrower and each of the Subsidiary
Guarantors identified on the signature pages hereto (collectively, Parent, the Borrower and such
Subsidiary Guarantors, the “Reaffirming Loan Parties”) hereby acknowledges that it expects to
receive substantial direct and indirect benefits as a result of this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby. Each Reaffirming Loan Party hereby consents to this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby, and hereby confirms its respective guarantees, pledges and grants
of security interests, as applicable, under each of the Loan Documents to which it is party, and
agrees that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby, such guarantees, pledges and grants of security interests shall continue to be in full
force and effect and shall accrue to the benefit of the Secured Parties. Each of the Reaffirming
Loan Parties further agrees to take any action that may be required or that is reasonably requested
by the Administrative Agent to effect the purposes of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated
hereby or the Loan Documents and hereby reaffirms its obligations under each provision of each Loan
Document to which it is party.

          SECTION 9. Expenses. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for
its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the Loan Documents (including the
preparation of this Agreement), including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel
for the Administrative Agent.

          SECTION 10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the
same instrument. Delivery by electronic transmission of an executed counterpart of a signature
page to this Agreement shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this
Agreement.

          SECTION 11. No Novation. Neither this Agreement nor the effectiveness of the Restated
Credit Agreement or the Restated Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall extinguish the
obligations for the payment of money outstanding under the Original Credit Agreement or discharge
or release the Lien or priority of any Loan Document or any other security therefor or any
guarantee thereof. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a substitution or novation of
the Obligations outstanding under the Original Credit Agreement or instruments guaranteeing or
securing the same, which shall remain in full force and effect, except as modified hereby or by
instruments executed concurrently herewith. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement, the
Restated Credit Agreement, the Restated Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other document
contemplated hereby or thereby shall be construed as a release or other discharge of the Borrower
under the Original Credit Agreement or any Loan Party under

 

 

the Existing Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Loan Document from any of its
obligations and liabilities thereunder. The Original Credit Agreement, the Existing Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect,
until and except as modified hereby or thereby in connection herewith or therewith.

          SECTION 12. Governing Law. (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

          (b) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY
RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF
OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT,
TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (I) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR
ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD
NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (II) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT
AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS,
THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

          SECTION 13. Headings. Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference
only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into
consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

through the date hereof.

     Subject to the assumptions, qualifications, exclusions and other limitations that are
identified in this letter and in the schedules attached to this letter, we advise you, and, with
respect to each legal issue addressed in this letter, it is our opinion, that:

	1.	 	Each of the Delaware Credit Parties is a corporation existing and in good standing under the
Delaware General Corporation Law, as in effect on the date hereof (the “DGCL”).

	2.	 	Each of the Delaware Credit Parties has the corporate power to execute and deliver the
Amendment Agreement and perform its respective obligations under the Credit Documents to which
it is a party.

	3.	 	Each of the boards of directors of each of the Delaware Credit Parties has adopted by
requisite vote or action, in accordance with the applicable provisions of its Organization
Documents granting such authority to the board of directors, the resolutions necessary to
authorize (a) such Delaware Credit Party’s execution and delivery of the Amendment Agreement,
and the performance of such Delaware Credit Party’s obligations under, the Credit Documents to
which it is a party and (b) the grant by each Delaware Credit Party of the security interests
pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.

	4.	 	Each Delaware Credit Party has duly executed and delivered the Amendment Agreement.

	5.	 	Each of the Credit Documents executed by each Credit Party is a valid and binding obligation
of each such Credit Party that is a party thereto, and is enforceable against such Credit
Party in accordance with its terms.

	6.	 	The execution and delivery by each of the Delaware Credit Parties and, except in the case of
paragraph (a), each of the other Credit Parties, of the Amendment Agreement, and the
performance of its obligations under each Credit Document, will not (a) violate any existing
provisions of the Organization Documents of such Delaware Credit Party, (b)
constitute a violation by such Credit Party of any applicable provision of existing
statutory law or governmental regulation applicable to such Credit Party and covered by

this letter or (c) result in the creation or imposition of (or obligation to create or impose)
any Lien on any property of any Credit Party (other than Liens created pursuant to the Loan
Documents) under, or result in a breach or other violation of, or constitute a default
under, any agreement listed on the Schedule I attached hereto (the “Specified
Agreements”) (except we express no opinion with respect to conflicts, breaches or
defaults under any agreement which is not a Specified Agreement or with respect to financial
covenants or tests).

	7.	 	No Credit Party is presently required to obtain any consent, approval, authorization or order
of any State of New York or United States federal court or governmental agency in order to
obtain the right to execute and deliver the Amendment Agreement and perform any of the Credit
Documents to which it is a party, except for: (a) those obtained or made on or prior to the
date hereof, (b) any actions or filings necessary to perfect the liens and security interests
granted under the Security Documents or to release existing liens, (c) consents, approvals,
authorizations, orders, actions or filings required in connection with ordinary course conduct
by such Credit Party of its respective businesses and ownership or operation by such Credit
Parties of its assets, (d) consents, approvals, authorizations, orders, actions or filings
required under any laws, regulations or governmental requirements as set forth on Schedule C
hereto, and (e) any actions or filings that may be required by any banking, insurance or other
regulatory statute to which you may be subject (as to which matters we express no opinion).

	8.	 	The execution and delivery of the Amendment Agreement will not, in and of itself, result in
the loss of perfection (if any) of any security interest arising under Article 9 of the UCC to
the extent that such security interest was and remained perfected under the Existing Guarantee
and Collateral Agreement under Article 9 of the UCC immediately prior to such execution and
delivery. For the avoidance of doubt, we express no opinion regarding (i) the creation,
priority or enforcement of any such security interest, (ii) the effect on such priority of the
execution and delivery of the Amendment Agreement, or (iii) the perfection of any such
security interest.

     In preparing this letter, we have relied without any independent verification upon the
assumptions recited in Schedule B to this letter and upon: (i) information contained in
certificates obtained from governmental authorities; (ii) factual information represented to be
true in the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents; (iii) factual information provided to
us in a support certificate executed by one or more of the Credit Parties; and (iv) factual
information we have obtained from such other sources as we have deemed reasonable. We have
examined the originals or copies certified to our satisfaction, of such other corporate records of
the Delaware Credit Parties as we deem necessary for or relevant to our opinions, certificates of
public officials and the officers of the Delaware Credit Parties and we have assumed without
investigation that there has been no relevant change or development between the dates as of
which the information cited in the preceding sentence was given and the date of this letter and

that the information upon which we have relied is accurate and does not omit disclosures necessary
to prevent such information from being misleading.

     While we have not conducted any independent investigation to determine facts upon which our
opinions are based or to obtain factual information about which this letter advises you, we confirm
that we do not have any actual knowledge that has caused us to conclude that our reliance and
assumptions cited in the preceding paragraph are unwarranted or that any information supplied to us
in connection with the preparation of this letter is wrong. The terms “actual knowledge”,
“knowledge”, “aware” or similar terms wherever they are used in this letter with
respect to our firm mean conscious awareness at the time this letter is delivered on the date it
bears by the following Kirkland & Ellis LLP lawyers who have had significant involvement with
negotiation or preparation of the Credit Agreement (herein called “our Designated Transaction
Lawyers”): Ashley Gregory.

     Except as set forth in the following sentences of this paragraph, our opinion on every legal
issue addressed in this letter (collectively, “our opinions”) is based exclusively on such
internal law of the State of New York or such federal law of the United States, which, in each
case, is in our experience normally applicable to general business entities not engaged in
regulated business activities and to transactions of the type contemplated between the Credit
Parties, on the one hand, and you, on the other hand, in the Credit Documents, but without our
having made any special investigation as to any other laws. We express no opinion or advice as to
any law (a) to which the Credit Parties may be subject as a result of your legal or regulatory
status, your sale or transfer of any Loans or other obligations or interests therein or your (as
opposed to any other lender’s) involvement in the transactions contemplated by the Credit
Documents, (b) identified on Schedule C, or (c) which might be violated by any
misrepresentation or omission or a fraudulent act. For purposes of the opinion in paragraph
1, as to existence and good standing, we have relied exclusively upon certificates issued by a
governmental authority in each relevant jurisdiction and such opinion is not intended to provide
any conclusion or assurance beyond that conveyed by such certificates. For purposes of paragraphs
2 through 4 and 6(a), such opinions are based on the DGCL and we have rendered such opinions based
exclusively on our review of the statutory provisions of such statutes as published by Aspen Law &
Business, as supplemented through October 15, 2010, without regard to any regulations promulgated
thereunder or any judicial or administrative interpretations thereof. We advise you that issues
addressed by this letter may be governed in whole or in part by other laws, but we express no
opinion as to whether any relevant difference exists between the laws upon which our opinions are
based and any other laws which may actually govern. Our opinions are subject to all qualifications
in Schedule A and do not cover or otherwise address any law or legal issue that is
identified in the attached Schedule C or any provision in the Credit Agreement or any of
the other Credit Documents of any type identified in Schedule D.
Provisions in the Credit Documents that are not excluded by Schedule D or any other
part of this letter or its attachments are called the “Relevant Agreement Terms.”

     Except to the extent set forth in the preceding paragraph, each of our opinions on each legal
issue addressed in this letter represents our opinion as to how the issue addressed in such opinion
would be resolved were it to be considered by the highest court of the jurisdiction upon whose law
our opinion on that issue is based. The manner in which any particular issue would be treated in
any actual court case would depend in part on facts and circumstances particular to the case, and
this letter is not intended to guarantee the outcome of any legal dispute that may arise in the
future. It is possible that some Relevant Agreement Terms may not prove enforceable for reasons
other than those cited in this letter should an actual enforcement action be brought, but (subject
to all the exceptions, qualifications, exclusions and other limitations contained in this letter)
such unenforceability would not in our opinion prevent you from realizing the principal benefits
purported to be provided by the Relevant Agreement Terms of a remedial nature contained in the
Credit Documents.

     This letter speaks as of the time of its delivery on the date it bears. We do not assume any
obligation to provide you with any subsequent opinion or advice by reason of any fact about which
our Designated Transaction Lawyers did not have actual knowledge at such time, by reason of any
change subsequent to such time in any law covered by any of our opinions, or for any other reason.
The attached schedules are an integral part of this letter, and any term defined in this letter or
any schedule has that defined meaning wherever it is used in this letter or in any schedule to this
letter.

     You may rely upon this letter only for the purposes served by the provisions in the Amendment
Agreement cited in the initial paragraph of this letter in response to which it has been delivered.
Without our written consent: (i) no person other than you may rely on this letter for any purpose;
(ii) this letter may not be cited or quoted in any financial statement, prospectus, private
placement memorandum or other similar document; (iii) this letter may not be cited or quoted in any
other document or communication that might encourage reliance upon this letter by any person or for
any purpose excluded by the restrictions in this paragraph; and (iv) copies of this letter or any
portion hereof may not be furnished to anyone for purposes of encouraging or in a manner that might
encourage such reliance; provided, however, that financial institutions that subsequently become
Lenders under the Credit Agreement in accordance with the assignment provisions thereof may rely on
this letter as of the date hereof as if this letter were addressed to them.

Sincerely,

effect, or enforceability of a provision (the “First Provision”) in any of the Credit
Documents requiring any party to perform its obligations under, or to cause any other person

Credit Document, or stating that any action will be taken as provided in or in accordance with

inconsistent with the New York UCC (to the extent that the New York UCC is applicable
thereto) or other applicable law (including, without limitation, any other applicable
Uniform Commercial Code);

Collateral in payment of the secured obligations;
	 
	 	(i)	 	we note that our opinions as to the validity, binding effect or enforceability

specifically set forth in opinion paragraph 8;

EXHIBIT C-2

Form of Opinion of General Counsel of Parent

November 5, 2010

The Lenders and the Agent Referred to Below 

c/o Credit Suisse AG

as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Issuing Bank

Eleven Madison Avenue

New York, New York 10010

          RE: Amendment and Restatement Agreement, dated as of November 5, 2010

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     I am Executive Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel of CHS/Community Health
Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), and have acted as Counsel for the
Borrower, Community Health Systems, Inc. (“Parent”) and each of the Subsidiaries listed on
the Schedule of Guarantors attached hereto as Schedule A (collectively, the “Guarantors”
and each a “Guarantor” and together with the Borrower and Parent, the “Credit
Parties”) in connection with the Amendment and Restatement Agreement, dated as of even date
herewith (the “Amendment Agreement”), among Parent, Borrower, the Guarantors, and Credit
Suisse AG, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent (the “Agent”), and the Lenders
listed on the signature pages thereto, which Amendment Agreement amends and restates (A) the Credit
Agreement, dated as of July 25, 2007 (the “Existing Credit Agreement”), among Parent,
Borrower, Agent, and the Lenders party thereto (the Existing Credit Agreement, as amended and
restated by the Amendment Agreement, the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) and (B)
the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, dated as of July 25, 2007 (the “Existing Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement”), among Parent, Borrower, the Guarantors and Agent (the Existing
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement as amended and restated by the Amendment Agreement, the
“Amended and Restated Guarantee and Collateral Agreement”).

     This opinion is delivered to you pursuant to subsection Section 6(b) of the Amendment
Agreement. All capitalized terms used herein that are defined in, or by reference in, the Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement have the meanings assigned to such terms therein, or by reference
therein, unless otherwise defined herein. With your permission, all assumptions and statements of
reliance herein have been made without any independent investigation or verification on my part
except to the extent otherwise expressly stated, and I express no opinion with respect to the
subject matter or accuracy of such assumptions or items relied upon.

     In connection with this opinion, I have (i) investigated such questions of law, (ii) examined
originals or certified, conformed or reproduction copies of such agreements, instruments,
documents, and records of the Credit Parties, such certificates of public officials and such other
documents, and (iii) received such information from officers and representatives of

 

 

the Credit Parties, as I have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion. I
have examined, among other documents, the following (in each case dated as of the date of the
Amendment Agreement):

     (a) an executed copy of the Amendment Agreement;

     (b) a copy of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement; and

     (c) a copy of the Amended and Restated Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.

     The documents referred to in items (a) through (c) above, inclusive, are referred to herein as
the “Transaction Documents”.

     In all such examinations, I have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons executing
documents, the genuineness of all signatures on original or certified, conformed or reproduction
copies of documents of all parties (other than with respect to the Credit Parties to the extent
signed in my presence), the authenticity of original and certified documents and the conformity to
original or certified documents of all copies submitted to me as conformed or reproduction copies.
As to various questions of fact relevant to the opinions expressed herein, I have relied upon, and
assume the accuracy of certificates and oral or written statements and other information of or from
public officials and others, and assume compliance on the part of all parties to the Transaction
Documents with their covenants and agreements contained therein.

     With respect to the opinions expressed in clauses (ii) and (iv) of paragraph (b) below, my
opinions are limited (x) to my actual knowledge of the respective business activities and
properties of the Credit Parties in respect of such matters and without any independent
investigation or verification on my part and (y) to my review of only those laws and regulations
that, in my experience, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the
Transaction Documents.

     To the extent it may be relevant to the opinions expressed herein, I have assumed that the
parties to the Transaction Documents, other than Parent, Borrower and the Guarantors, have the
corporate power to enter into and perform such documents and that (except as set forth in paragraph
(b) below) such documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and constitute
legal, valid and binding obligations of, such parties.

     Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the limitations, qualifications and assumptions set
forth therein, I am of the opinion that:

     (a) Each Guarantor is a corporation, limited liability company, or limited partnership validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or
organization and has all power and authority necessary to execute, deliver and perform its
obligations under the Transaction Documents.

     (b) The execution and delivery by each Credit Party of the Amendment Agreement and the
performance by each Credit Party of its respective obligations under each of the Transaction
Documents and the borrowings by the Borrower and the grant by each Credit Party of the security
interests pursuant to the Transaction Documents to which it is a party (i) have

 

 

been authorized, in the case of each Guarantor, by all necessary action by such Guarantor, (ii) do
not require under present law any filing or registration by any Credit Party with, or approval or
consent to any Credit Party of, any governmental agency or authority of the State of Tennessee that
has not been made or obtained, except those required in the ordinary course of business in
connection with the future performance, if any, by each Credit Party of its respective obligations
under certain covenants contained in the Transaction Documents to which it is a party or pursuant
to securities or other laws that may be applicable to the disposition of any collateral subject
thereto, (iii) do not contravene any provision of the certificate of incorporation or bylaws or
similar organizational document of any Guarantor, (iv) do not violate any present law, or present
regulation of any governmental agency or authority, of the State of Tennessee known by me to be
applicable to any Credit Party or their respective properties, (v) breach or cause a default under
any agreement or violate any court decree or order binding upon such Credit Party or its property
(this opinion being limited (x) to those agreements, decrees or orders that have been filed as
exhibits (or are incorporated by reference as exhibits) to the Form 10-K of Parent for the year
ended December 31, 2009 and (y) in that I express, no opinion with respect to any breach, default
or violation not readily ascertainable from the face of any such agreement, decree or order, or
arising under or based upon any cross default provision insofar as it relates to a default under an
agreement not so identified to me, or arising under or based upon any covenant of a financial or
numerical nature or requiring computation), and (vi) will not result in or require the creation or
imposition of any Lien upon any properties of a Credit Party pursuant to the provisions of any
agreement (this opinion being limited to those agreements that have been filed as exhibits (or are
incorporated by reference as exhibits) to the Form 10-K of Parent for the year ended December 31,
2009.

     (c) The Amendment Agreement has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Guarantor
that is a party thereto.

     To my actual knowledge, I am not aware of any pending legal proceeding before, or pending
investigation by, any court or administrative agency or authority, or any arbitration tribunal,
against or directly affecting the Credit Parties, or any of their respective properties, which
seeks to enjoin or otherwise prevent the consummation of, or to recover any damages or obtain
relief in connection with or which would adversely affect the legality, validity or enforceability
of, any of the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

     I have issued certain limited opinions above as to the corporate, limited liability company,
or limited partnership organization, existence, good standing and authority of the Guarantors under
the law of their respective states of organization. I do not purport to be an expert in matters of
law of jurisdictions other than the State of Tennessee and the federal law of the United States of
America, and have issued my opinions based solely upon my review of the corporate record of each
Guarantor.

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

     (a) I express no opinion regarding the application of federal or state securities laws to the
transactions contemplated in the Transaction Documents;

 

 

     (b) I express no opinion regarding (i) the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent
transfer and other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors and (ii)
restrictions relating to capital adequacy that may be applicable to any Guarantor to the extent any
Transaction Document may be deemed a dividend or distribution; and

     (c) to the extent that section 8.31 of the Revised Model Business Corporation Act (as adopted
in any state in which a Credit Party is incorporated) or other corporation law analogous thereto
may apply, I have assumed the transactions described in the Transaction Documents are fair to the
Credit Parties.

     I am qualified to practice law in the State of Tennessee, and I am no expert in and express no
opinions as to the laws of other jurisdictions other than to the federal laws of the United States
of America and the laws of the State of Tennessee, as currently in effect. I assume no obligation
to supplement this opinion if any applicable laws change after the date hereof or if I become aware
of any facts that might change the opinions expressed herein after the date hereof.

[Remainder of page intentionally left blank.]

 

 

     The opinions expressed herein are solely for the benefit of the Lenders and the Agent and may
not be relied on in any manner or for any purpose by any other person or entity.

	 	 	 	 	 
	 	Very truly yours,

     CREDIT AGREEMENT dated as of July 25, 2007, as amended and
restated as of November 5, 2010, among CHS/COMMUNITY HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC., a
Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), COMMUNITY HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC., a
Delaware corporation (“Parent”), the Lenders (as defined in Article I), and
CREDIT SUISSE AG, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the
“Administrative Agent”) and as collateral agent (in such capacity, the
“Collateral Agent”) for the Lenders.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

     The Borrower, Parent, the lenders party thereto and Credit Suisse AG (formerly known as Credit
Suisse), as administrative agent and collateral agent, have previously entered into a Credit
Agreement dated as of July 25, 2007 (the “Original Credit Agreement”).

     On the Restatement Effective Date, (a) certain Existing Funded Term Loans and Existing Delayed
Draw Term Loans will be converted to Extended Term Loans pursuant to the Amendment and Restatement
Agreement, and all other Existing Funded Term Loans and Existing Delayed Draw Term Loans will be
redesignated as Non-Extended Funded Term Loans or Non-Extended Delayed Draw Term Loans, as
applicable, and (b) the Original Credit Agreement will be amended and restated in the form of this
Agreement.

     The proceeds of the Existing Term Loans were used for the purposes set forth in the Original
Credit Agreement. The proceeds of the Revolving Loans and the Swingline Loans are to be used by
the Borrower and the Subsidiaries from time to time for working capital and other general corporate
purposes, including permitted investments and Capital Expenditures and to repay Indebtedness.
Letters of Credit will be used for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries.

     Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

Definitions

     SECTION 1.01. Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the
meanings specified below:

     “ABR”, when used in reference to any Loan or Borrowing, refers to whether such Loan, or the
Loans comprising such Borrowing, are bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to the
Alternate Base Rate.

     “Accepting Revolving Credit Lenders” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section
2.25(a).

     “Adjusted LIBO Rate” shall mean, with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing for any Interest
Period, an interest rate per annum equal to the product of (a) the LIBO Rate in effect for such
Interest Period and (b) Statutory Reserves.

 

 

     “Administrative Agent Fees” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 2.05(b).

     “Administrative Questionnaire” shall mean an Administrative Questionnaire in the form of
Exhibit A, or such other form as may be supplied from time to time by the Administrative Agent.

     “Affiliate” shall mean, when used with respect to a specified person, another person that
directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, Controls or is Controlled by or is
under common Control with the person specified; provided, however, that, for purposes of Section
6.07, the term “Affiliate” shall also include any person that directly or indirectly owns 10% or
more of any class of Equity Interests of the person specified.

     “Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure” shall mean the aggregate amount of the Lenders’
Revolving Credit Exposures.

     “Alternate Base Rate” shall mean, for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a)
the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day
plus 1/2 of 1% and (c) the Adjusted LIBO Rate on such day for a three month Interest Period
commencing on the second Business Day after such day plus 1%. If the Administrative Agent shall
have determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that it is unable
to ascertain the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate for any reason, including
the inability or failure of the Administrative Agent to obtain sufficient quotations in accordance
with the terms of the definition of Federal Funds Effective Rate the Alternate Base Rate shall be
determined without regard to clause (b) or (c), as applicable, of the preceding sentence until the
circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist. Any change in the Alternate Base Rate
due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate shall
be effective on the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective
Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate, as the case may be.

     “Amendment and Restatement Agreement” shall mean the Amendment and Restatement Agreement dated
as of the Restatement Effective Date among Parent, the Borrower, the Subsidiary Guarantors party
thereto, the Lenders party thereto and the Administrative Agent.

     “Applicable Percentage” shall mean, for any day (a) with respect to any (i) Eurodollar
Non-Extended Term Loan, 2.25% per annum, or (ii) Eurodollar Extended Term Loan, 3.50% per annum,
(b) with respect to any (i) ABR Non-Extended Term Loan, 1.25% per annum or (ii) ABR Extended Term
Loan, 2.50% per annum, and (c) (i) with respect to any Eurodollar Revolving Loan or ABR Revolving
Loan, the applicable percentage set forth below under the caption “Eurodollar Spread—Revolving
Loans” or “ABR Spread—Revolving Loans”, as the case may be, and (ii) with respect to the Revolving
Credit Commitment Fee, the applicable rate set forth below under the caption “Revolving Credit
Commitment Fee Rate”, in each case based upon the Leverage Ratio as of the relevant date of
determination:

	Less than 3.5 to
1.00
	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 

Each change in the Applicable Percentage resulting from a change in the Leverage Ratio shall be
effective with respect to all Loans and Letters of Credit outstanding on and after the date of
delivery to the Administrative Agent of the financial statements and certificates required by
Section 5.04(a) or (b) and Section 5.04(c), respectively, indicating such change until the date
immediately preceding the next date of delivery of such financial statements and certificates
indicating another such change. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) at any time during which the
Borrower has failed to deliver the financial statements and certificates required by Section
5.04(a) or (b) and Section 5.04(c), respectively (until the time of the delivery thereof), or (b)

condemnation or otherwise) by Parent, the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries to any person other

Subsidiaries (other than directors’ qualifying shares) or (b) any other assets of Parent, the
Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries, other than:

          (i) inventory, damaged, obsolete or worn out assets, scrap, surplus and Permitted Investments,
in each case disposed of in the ordinary course of business;

          (ii) donations of assets by the Borrower or any Subsidiary (whether of real or personal

     SECTION 1.03. Pro Forma Calculations. With respect to any period of four consecutive fiscal
quarters during which any Permitted Acquisition or Significant Asset Sale occurs, each of the
Leverage Ratio and the Secured Leverage Ratio shall, for all purposes set forth herein, be
calculated with respect to such period on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such Permitted
Acquisition or Significant Asset Sale (including, without duplication, (a) all pro forma
adjustments permitted or required by Article 11 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, and (b) pro forma adjustments for cost savings (net of continuing associated expenses)
to the extent such cost savings are factually supportable, are expected to have a continuing impact
and have been realized or are reasonably expected to be realized within 12 months following any
such Permitted Acquisition; provided that at the election of Parent, such pro forma adjustment
shall not be required to be determined for any Permitted Acquisition if the aggregate consideration
paid in connection with such acquisition is less than $100,000,000; provided further that all such
adjustments shall be set forth in a reasonably detailed certificate of a Financial Officer of
Parent), using, for purposes of making such calculations, the historical financial statements of
Parent, the Borrower and the Subsidiaries which shall be reformulated as if such Permitted
Acquisition or Significant Asset Sale, and any other Permitted Acquisitions and Significant Asset
Sales that have been consummated during the period, had been consummated on the first day of such
period. In addition, solely for purposes of determining whether a Specified Transaction is
permitted hereunder (including whether such Specified Transaction would result in a Default or
Event of Default and whether the Leverage Ratio Condition or the Secured Leverage Ratio Condition
would be met), the Leverage Ratio and the Secured Leverage Ratio shall be calculated on a pro forma
basis as provided in the preceding sentence.

 

 

     SECTION 1.04. Classification of Loans and Borrowings. For purposes of this Agreement, Loans
may be classified and referred to by Class (e.g., a “Revolving Loan”) or by Type (e.g., a
“Eurodollar Loan”) or by Class and Type (e.g., a “Eurodollar Revolving Loan”). Borrowings also may
be classified and referred to by Class (e.g., a “Revolving Borrowing”) or by Type (e.g., a
“Eurodollar Borrowing”) or by Class and Type (e.g., a “Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing”).

ARTICLE II

The Credits

     SECTION 2.01. Commitments. (a) The Borrower and the Term Lenders acknowledge the making of
the Existing Term Loans under the Original Credit Agreement and agree that, to the extent
outstanding on the Restatement Effective Date, the Existing Term Loans shall continue to be
outstanding as Extended Term Loans or Non-Extended Term Loans, as applicable under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents. Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the
representations and warranties herein set forth, each Revolving Credit Lender agrees, severally and
not jointly, to make Revolving Loans to the Borrower, at any time and from time to time after the
Closing Date, and until the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the termination of
the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, in an aggregate
principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in such Lender’s Revolving Credit
Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Within the limits set forth in the
preceding sentence and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the
Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans. Amounts paid or prepaid in
respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

     (b) Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties
set forth herein and in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement, each Lender
having an Incremental Term Loan Commitment agrees, severally and not jointly, to make Incremental
Term Loans to the Borrower, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed its Incremental Term
Loan Commitment. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Incremental Term Loans may not be
reborrowed.

     SECTION 2.02. Loans. (a) Each Loan (other than Swingline Loans) shall be made as part of a
Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their applicable
Commitments; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan shall not in itself
relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no
Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be
made by such other Lender). Except for Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.02(f), the Loans
comprising any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (i) an integral multiple
of $1,000,000 and not less than $3,000,000 (except, with respect to any Incremental Term Borrowing,
to the extent otherwise provided in the related Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement) or (ii)
equal to the remaining available balance of the applicable Commitments.

     (b) Subject to Sections 2.02(f), 2.08 and 2.15, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of
ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request pursuant to Section 2.03. Each Lender
may at its option make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate
of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of

 

 

such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time;
provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made,
would result in more than fifteen Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any time. For
purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they
commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.

     (c) Except with respect to Loans made pursuant to Section 2.02(f), each Lender shall make
each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to such account in New York City as the Administrative Agent may designate not
later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly credit the
amounts so received to an account designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request
or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified
shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders.

     (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the
date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such
Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made
such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with
paragraph (c) above and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make
available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall
have so made funds available then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion
available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent
forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the
date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date such amount is repaid
to the Administrative Agent at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost
of overnight or short-term funds (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error).
If such Lender shall not repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount within three
Business Days after demand by the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the interest
rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing, on demand, from the Borrower.
If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall
constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

     (e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled
to request any Revolving Credit Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto
would end after the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

     (f) If the Issuing Bank shall not have received from the Borrower the payment required to be
made by Section 2.23(e) within the time specified in such Section, the Issuing Bank will promptly
notify the Administrative Agent of the L/C Disbursement and the Administrative Agent will promptly
notify each Revolving Credit Lender of such L/C Disbursement and its Pro Rata Percentage thereof.
Each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date (or, if such
Revolving Credit Lender shall have received such notice later than 12:00 (noon), New York City
time, on any day, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the immediately following
Business Day), an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of

 

 

such L/C Disbursement (it being understood that (i) if the conditions precedent to borrowing
set forth in Sections 4.01(b) and (c) have been satisfied, such amount shall be deemed to
constitute an ABR Revolving Loan of such Lender and, to the extent of such payment, the obligations
of the Borrower in respect of such L/C Disbursement shall be discharged and replaced with the
resulting ABR Revolving Credit Borrowing, and (ii) if such conditions precedent to borrowing have
not been satisfied, then any such amount paid by any Revolving Credit Lender shall not constitute a
Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower from its obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement),
and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank amounts so received by it from
the Revolving Credit Lenders. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank any
amounts received by it from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.23(e) prior to the time that any
Revolving Credit Lender makes any payment pursuant to this paragraph (f); any such amounts received
by the Administrative Agent thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the
Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have made such payments and to the Issuing Bank, as their
interests may appear. If any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have made its Pro Rata Percentage
of such L/C Disbursement available to the Administrative Agent as provided above, such Lender and
the Borrower severally agree to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the
date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with this paragraph to but excluding the date
such amount is paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank at (i) in the
case of the Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to Revolving Loans
pursuant to Section 2.06(a), and (ii) in the case of such Lender, for the first such day, the
Federal Funds Effective Rate, and for each day thereafter, the Alternate Base Rate.

     SECTION 2.03. Borrowing Procedure. In order to request a Borrowing (other than a Swingline
Loan or a deemed Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02(f), as to which this Section 2.03 shall not
apply), the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the
case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, three Business
Days before a proposed Borrowing, and (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00
(noon), New York City time, one Business Day before a proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic
Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable, and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or fax to
the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request and shall specify the following
information: (i) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be an Extended Term Borrowing, a
Non-Extended Delayed Draw Term Borrowing, a Non-Extended Funded Term Borrowing, an Incremental Term
Borrowing or a Revolving Credit Borrowing, and whether such Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar
Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing; (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day);
(iii) the number and location of the account to which funds are to be disbursed; (iv) the amount of
such Borrowing; and (v) if such Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period with
respect thereto; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any contrary specification in any
Borrowing Request, each requested Borrowing shall comply with the requirements set forth in Section
2.02. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the
requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period with respect to any
Eurodollar Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have
selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall promptly
advise the applicable Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.03 (and the contents
thereof), and of each Lender’s portion of the requested Borrowing.

 

 

     SECTION 2.04. Evidence of Debt; Repayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally
promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (i) the principal amount
of each Term Loan of such Lender as provided in Section 2.11 and (ii) the then unpaid principal
amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. The Borrower
hereby promises to pay to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline
Loan on the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the 15th day after such Swingline
Loan is made.

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

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

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

     (e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it hereunder be evidenced by a promissory note.
In such event, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to
such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form and substance reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in
the event any Lender shall request and receive such a promissory note, the interests represented by
such note shall at all times (including after any assignment of all or part of such interests
pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes payable to the payee named
therein or its registered assigns.

     SECTION 2.05. Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to each Revolving Credit Lender, through
the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December in each
year and on each date on which any Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be
terminated as provided herein, a commitment fee (a “Revolving Credit Commitment Fee”) equal to the
Revolving Credit Commitment Fee Rate per annum on the daily unused amount of the Revolving Credit
Commitment of such Lender during the preceding quarter (or other period ending with the Revolving
Credit Maturity Date or the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lender shall
expire or be terminated). All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number
of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. For purposes of calculating Revolving Credit Commitment
Fees, no portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be deemed utilized as a result of
outstanding Swingline Loans.

 

 

     (b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the
administrative fees set forth in the Fee Letter at the times and in the amounts specified therein
(the “Administrative Agent Fees”).

     (c) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to each Revolving Credit Lender, through the
Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year
and on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated as
provided herein, a fee (an “L/C Participation Fee”) calculated on such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage
of the daily aggregate L/C Exposure (excluding the portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed L/C
Disbursements) during the preceding quarter (or shorter period ending with the Revolving Credit
Maturity Date or the date on which all Letters of Credit have been canceled or have expired and the
Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders shall have been terminated) at a rate per annum equal
to the Applicable Percentage from time to time used to determine the interest rate on Revolving
Credit Borrowings comprised of Eurodollar Loans pursuant to Section 2.06, and (ii) to the Issuing
Bank with respect to each Letter of Credit the standard fronting, issuance and drawing fees
specified from time to time by the Issuing Bank (the “Issuing Bank Fees”); provided that each such
fronting fee charged from time to time shall not exceed 0.25% per annum of the aggregate undrawn
face amount of the then outstanding Letters of Credit. All L/C Participation Fees and Issuing Bank
Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

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

     SECTION 2.06. Interest on Loans. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans
comprising each ABR Borrowing, including each Swingline Loan, shall bear interest (computed on the
basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, when
the Alternate Base Rate is determined by reference to the Prime Rate and over a year of 360 days at
all other times and calculated from and including the date of such Borrowing to but excluding the
date of repayment thereof) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable
Percentage in effect from time to time.

     (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing
shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360
days) at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for
such Borrowing plus the Applicable Percentage in effect from time to time.

     (c) Interest on each Loan shall be payable on the Interest Payment Dates applicable to such
Loan except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The applicable Alternate Base Rate or
Adjusted LIBO Rate for each Interest Period or day within an Interest Period, as the case may be,
shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.

     SECTION 2.07. Default Interest. If the Borrower shall default in the payment of any
principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount due hereunder, by acceleration or
otherwise, or under any other Loan Document, then, until such defaulted amount shall have been paid
in full, to the extent permitted by law, such defaulted amount shall bear interest (after as

 

 

well as before judgment), payable on demand, (a) in the case of principal, at the rate
otherwise applicable to such Loan pursuant to Section 2.06 plus 2.00% per annum and (b) in all
other cases, at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a
year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, when determined by reference to the Prime Rate and
over a year of 360 days at all other times) equal to the rate that would be applicable to an ABR
Loan of the applicable Class plus 2.00% per annum.

     SECTION 2.08. Alternate Rate of Interest. In the event, and on each occasion, that on the
day two Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing
the Administrative Agent shall have determined that dollar deposits in the principal amounts of the
Loans comprising such Borrowing are not generally available in the London interbank market, or that
the rates at which such dollar deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect
the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining its Eurodollar Loan during such Interest Period, or
that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the Administrative
Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written or fax notice of such determination to
the Borrower and the Lenders. In the event of any such determination, until the Administrative
Agent shall have advised the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such
notice no longer exist, any request by the Borrower for a Eurodollar Borrowing pursuant to Section
2.03 or 2.10 shall be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing. Each determination by the
Administrative Agent under this Section 2.08 shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     SECTION 2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) The Incremental Term Loan
Commitments shall terminate as provided in the related Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement.
The Revolving Credit Commitments and the Swingline Commitment shall automatically terminate on the
Revolving Credit Maturity Date. The L/C Commitment shall automatically terminate on the earlier to
occur of (i) the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and (ii) the date 10 Business Days
prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

     (b) Upon at least three Business Days’ prior written or fax notice to the Administrative
Agent, the Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part
permanently reduce, the Revolving Credit Commitments or the Swingline Commitment; provided,
however, that (i) each partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in an
integral multiple of $1,000,000 and in a minimum amount of $3,000,000, (ii) each partial reduction
of the Swingline Commitment shall be in an integral multiple of $250,000 and in a minimum amount of
$1,000,000 and (iii) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall not be reduced to an amount that
is less than the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure at the time. Each notice delivered by the
Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination
of the Revolving Credit Commitments or the Swingline Commitment delivered by the Borrower may state
that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, indentures or
similar agreements or any other event, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by
notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition
is not satisfied.

     (c) Each reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder shall be made ratably among
the Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments. The Borrower shall pay to
the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, on the date of each termination
or reduction, the Commitment Fees on the amount of the Commitments so terminated or reduced accrued
to but excluding the date of such termination or reduction.

 

 

     SECTION 2.10. Conversion and Continuation of Borrowings. The Borrower shall have the right
at any time upon prior irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (a) not later than 12:00
(noon), New York City time, one Business Day prior to conversion, to convert any Eurodollar
Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing, (b) not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, three
Business Days prior to conversion or continuation, to convert any ABR Borrowing into a Eurodollar
Borrowing or to continue any Eurodollar Borrowing as a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional
Interest Period, and (c) not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, three Business Days prior
to conversion, to convert the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing to another
permissible Interest Period, subject in each case to the following:

     (i) each conversion or continuation shall be made pro rata among the Lenders in
accordance with the respective principal amounts of the Loans comprising the converted or
continued Borrowing;

     (ii) if less than all the outstanding principal amount of any Borrowing shall be
converted or continued, then each resulting Borrowing shall satisfy the limitations
specified in Sections 2.02(a) and 2.02(b) regarding the principal amount and maximum number
of Borrowings of the relevant Type;

     (iii) each conversion shall be effected by each Lender and the Administrative Agent by
recording for the account of such Lender the new Loan of such Lender resulting from such
conversion and reducing the Loan (or portion thereof) of such Lender being converted by an
equivalent principal amount; accrued interest on any Eurodollar Loan (or portion thereof)
being converted shall be paid by the Borrower at the time of conversion;

     (iv) if any Eurodollar Borrowing is converted at a time other than the end of the
Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall pay, upon demand, any amounts due to
the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.16;

     (v) any portion of a Borrowing maturing or required to be repaid in less than one
month may not be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing;

     (vi) any portion of a Eurodollar Borrowing that cannot be converted into or continued
as a Eurodollar Borrowing by reason of the immediately preceding clause shall be
automatically converted at the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing into
an ABR Borrowing;

     (vii) no Interest Period may be selected for any Eurodollar Term Borrowing that would
end later than a Repayment Date occurring on or after the first day of such Interest Period
if, after giving effect to such selection, the aggregate outstanding amount of (A) the
Eurodollar Term Borrowings comprised of Extended Term Loans, Non-Extended Delayed Draw Term
Loans, Non-Extended Funded Term Loans or Other Term Loans, as applicable, with Interest
Periods ending on or prior to such Repayment Date and (B) the ABR Term Borrowings comprised
of Extended Term Loans, Non-Extended Delayed Draw Term Loans, Non-Extended Funded Term Loans
or Other Term Loans, as applicable, would not be at least equal to the principal amount of
Term Borrowings to be paid on such Repayment Date; and

 

 

     (viii) upon notice to the Borrower from the Administrative Agent given at the request
of the Required Lenders, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or
Event of Default, no outstanding Loan may be converted into, or continued as, a Eurodollar
Loan.

     Each notice pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this
Agreement and specify (i) the identity and amount of the Borrowing that the Borrower requests be
converted or continued, (ii) whether such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a
Eurodollar Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing, (iii) if such notice requests a conversion, the date of
such conversion (which shall be a Business Day) and (iv) if such Borrowing is to be converted to or
continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no Interest
Period is specified in any such notice with respect to any conversion to or continuation as a
Eurodollar Borrowing, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one
month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of any notice given pursuant
to this Section 2.10 and of each Lender’s portion of any converted or continued Borrowing. If the
Borrower shall not have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to continue any Borrowing
into a subsequent Interest Period (and shall not otherwise have given notice in accordance with
this Section 2.10 to convert such Borrowing), such Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest
Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), automatically be continued
into an ABR Borrowing.

     SECTION 2.11. Repayment of Term Borrowings. (a) (i) The Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the Non-Extended Funded Term Loan Lenders, (A) on the last
Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the last Business Day of
December 2010 (each such date being called a “Non-Extended Funded Term Loan Repayment Date”), a
principal amount of the Non-Extended Funded Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to
Sections 2.12 and 2.13(g)) equal to (1) the amount that would have been payable on such date in
respect of the Existing Funded Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i) of the Original Credit
Agreement multiplied by (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate amount of all
Non-Extended Funded Term Loans outstanding on the Restatement Effective Date immediately after the
effectiveness of the Amendment and Restatement Agreement, and the denominator of which is the
aggregate amount of all Existing Funded Term Loans outstanding on the Restatement Effective Date
immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Amendment and Restatement Agreement and (B) on the
Non-Extended Term Loan Maturity Date, the aggregate principal amount of all Non-Extended Funded
Term Loans outstanding on such date, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the
principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment.

     (ii) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Non-Extended
Delayed Draw Term Loan Lenders, (A) on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and
December, commencing with the last Business Day of December 2010 (each such date being called a
“      Non-Extended Delayed Draw Term Loan Repayment Date”), a principal amount of the Non-Extended
Delayed Draw Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.12 and 2.13(g)) equal
to (1) the amount that would have been payable on such date in respect of the Existing Delayed Draw
Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(ii) of the Original Credit Agreement multiplied by (2) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate amount of all Non-Extended Delayed Draw Term
Loans outstanding on the Restatement Effective Date immediately after the effectiveness of the
Amendment and

 

 

Restatement Agreement, and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of all Existing
Delayed Draw Term Loans outstanding on the Restatement Effective Date immediately prior to the
effectiveness of the Amendment and Restatement Agreement and (B) on the Non-Extended Term Loan
Maturity Date, the aggregate principal amount of all Non-Extended Delayed Draw Term Loans
outstanding on such date, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal
amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment.

     (iii) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Extended
Term Loan Lenders, (A) on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December,
commencing with the last Business Day of December 2010 (each such date being called an “Extended
Term Loan Repayment Date”), a principal amount of the Extended Term Loans (as adjusted from time to
time pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13(g) and 2.24(d)) equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal
amount of all Extended Term Loans outstanding on the Restatement Effective Date and (B) on the
Extended Term Loan Maturity Date, the aggregate principal amount of all Extended Term Loans
outstanding on such date, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal
amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment.

     (iv) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Incremental
Term Lenders, on each Incremental Term Loan Repayment Date, a principal amount of the Other Term
Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13(g) and 2.24(d)) equal to the
amount set forth for such date in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement,
together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but
excluding the date of such payment.

     (b) To the extent not previously paid, (i) all Non-Extended Term Loans shall be due and
payable on the Non-Extended Term Loan Maturity Date, (ii) all Extended Term Loans shall be due and
payable on the Extended Term Loan Maturity Date and (iii) all Other Term Loans shall be due and
payable on the Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date applicable thereto, in each case together with
accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of
payment.

     (c) All repayments pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be subject to Section 2.16, but shall
otherwise be without premium or penalty.

     SECTION 2.12. Optional Prepayment. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and
from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, upon at least three Business Days’
prior written or fax notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or fax notice) in
the case of Eurodollar Loans, or written or fax notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by
written or fax notice) at least one Business Day prior to the date of prepayment in the case of ABR
Loans, to the Administrative Agent before 11:00 a.m., New York City time; provided, however, that
each partial prepayment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not
less than $3,000,000.

     (b) Optional prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied as directed by the Borrower, and if
no such direction is provided, pro rata against the remaining scheduled installments of principal
due in respect of the Term Loans under Section 2.11, provided that no prepayment of the Extended
Term Loans shall be made pursuant to this Section unless the remaining Non-Extended Term Loans, if
any, shall be prepaid at least ratably.

 

 

     (c) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of
each Borrowing (or portion thereof) to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the
Borrower to prepay such Borrowing by the amount stated therein on the date stated therein; provided
that a notice of prepayment may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of
other credit facilities, indentures or similar agreements or any other event, in which case such
notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the
specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. All prepayments under this Section
2.12 shall be subject to Section 2.16 but otherwise without premium or penalty. All prepayments
under this Section 2.12 (other than prepayments of ABR Revolving Loans that are not made in
connection with the termination or permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments) shall
be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but
excluding the date of payment.

     SECTION 2.13. Mandatory Prepayments. (a) In the event of any termination of all the
Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall, on the date of such termination, repay or prepay
all its outstanding Revolving Credit Borrowings and all outstanding Swingline Loans and replace or
cause to be canceled (or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the
Issuing Bank with respect to) all outstanding Letters of Credit. If, after giving effect to any
partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments or at any other time, the Aggregate Revolving
Credit Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment, then the Borrower shall, on the
date of such reduction or at such other time, repay or prepay Revolving Credit Borrowings or
Swingline Loans (or a combination thereof) and, after the Revolving Credit Borrowings and Swingline
Loans shall have been repaid or prepaid in full, replace or cause to be canceled (or make other
arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank with respect to) Letters
of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

     (b) Not later than the fifth Business Day after the earlier of (i) the receipt of aggregate
Net Cash Proceeds in respect of Asset Sales (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, sales of
Receivables in a Permitted Receivables Transaction, which such sales shall be subject to Section
2.13(e) below) in excess of $50,000,000 and (ii) the first anniversary of the Borrower’s most
recent prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.13(b), the Borrower shall apply 100% of the Net Cash
Proceeds so received (and not yet used to prepay Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.13(b)) to
prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(g); provided that the Borrower may
use a portion of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay or repurchase Pari Passu Debt secured by Liens on
the Collateral having the same priority as the Liens securing the Obligations to the extent any
applicable credit agreement, indenture or other agreement governing such Pari Passu Debt requires
the Borrower to prepay or make an offer to purchase such Pari Passu Debt with the proceeds of such
Asset Sale, in each case in an amount not to exceed the product of (A) the amount of such Net Cash
Proceeds and (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of such
Pari Passu Debt and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of
such Pari Passu Debt and the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans.

     (c) No later than 95 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Borrower, the Borrower
shall prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(g) in an aggregate principal
amount equal to (x) 50% of Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year then ended minus (y) Voluntary
Prepayments made during such fiscal year; provided that such percentage shall be

 

 

reduced to 25% if the Leverage Ratio as of the end of such fiscal year was less than 4.50 to
1.00 but equal to or greater than 3.50 to 1.00 and such percentage shall be reduced to zero (i.e.,
no payments shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.13(c)) if the Leverage Ratio as of the end
of such fiscal year was less than 3.50 to 1.00.

     (d) In the event that Parent or any of its subsidiaries shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from
the issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness for money borrowed (other than any cash proceeds from
the issuance of Indebtedness for money borrowed permitted pursuant to Section 6.01 (other than
Sections 6.01(f) and 6.01(o) (except for refinancing Indebtedness incurred thereunder), the
Borrower shall, substantially simultaneously with (and in any event not later than the fifth
Business Day next following) the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds by Parent or such subsidiary,
apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds (or, in the case of Permitted Additional
Debt, 75% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof in excess of $200,000,000) to prepay outstanding Term
Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(g).

     (e) To the extent Parent or any of its subsidiaries shall receive aggregate Net Cash Proceeds
in excess of $300,000,000 from the consummation of Permitted Receivables Transactions, the Borrower
shall, substantially simultaneously with (and in any event not later than the fifth Business Day
next following) the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds by Parent or such subsidiary, apply an amount
equal to 100% of the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds so in excess of $300,000,000 to prepay
outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(g), provided that, the Borrower may use a
portion of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay or repurchase Pari Passu Debt secured by Liens on the
Collateral having the same priority as the Liens securing the Obligations to the extent any
applicable credit agreement, indenture or other agreement governing such Pari Passu Debt requires
the Borrower to prepay or make an offer to purchase such Pari Passu Debt with the proceeds of such
transaction, in each case in an amount not to exceed the product of (i) the amount of such Net Cash
Proceeds and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of such
Pari Passu Debt and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of such
Pari Passu Debt and the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans.

     (f) [Intentionally Omitted].

     (g) Mandatory prepayments of outstanding Term Loans under this Agreement shall be allocated
pro rata among the Extended Term Loans, the Non-Extended Term Loans and the Other Term Loans and
first applied in order of maturity of the scheduled installments of principal due in respect of the
Non-Extended Term Loans, the Extended Term Loans and the Other Term Loans under Sections
2.11(a)(i), (ii) and (iii) for the first eight installments following such mandatory prepayment
(commencing with the first such scheduled installment pursuant to Sections 2.11(a)(i), (ii) and
(iii)) and, if applicable, thereafter applied pro rata against the remaining scheduled installments
of principal due in respect of the Non-Extended Term Loans, the Extended Term Loans, and the Other
Term Loans under Sections 2.11(a)(i), (ii) and (iii), respectively, the amount of such mandatory
prepayment shall be applied first to Term Loans that are ABR Loans to the full extent thereof
before application to Term Loans that are Eurodollar Loans in a manner that minimizes the amount of
any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.16.

     (h) The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at the time of each prepayment
required under this Section 2.13(b), (c), (d) or (e), as applicable, (i) a certificate

 

 

signed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail the
calculation of the amount of such prepayment and (ii) to the extent practicable, at least two days
prior written notice of such prepayment. Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment
date, the Type of each Loan being prepaid and the principal amount of each Loan (or portion
thereof) to be prepaid. All prepayments of Borrowings under this Section 2.13 shall be subject to
Section 2.16, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty, and shall be accompanied by
accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but excluding the date of
payment (which interest amounts shall reduce the amount of Net Cash Proceeds required to be applied
to prepay the Loans).

     SECTION 2.14. Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances. (a) Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall impose, modify or deem applicable any
reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account
of or credit extended by any Lender or the Issuing Bank (except any such reserve requirement which
is reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or shall impose on such Lender or the Issuing Bank or the
London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by
such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein, and the result of any of the
foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of making or maintaining
any Eurodollar Loan or increase the cost to any Lender of issuing or maintaining any Letter of
Credit or purchasing or maintaining a participation therein or to reduce the amount of any sum
received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest
or otherwise) by an amount deemed by such Lender or the Issuing Bank to be material, then the
Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, from time to time such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may
be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

     (b) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding
capital adequacy has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or
the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding
company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made or participations in Letters
of Credit purchased by such Lender pursuant hereto or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing
Bank pursuant hereto to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s
or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into
consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the
Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender
or the Issuing Bank to be material, then from time to time the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or
the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such
Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such
reduction suffered.

     (c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts
necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as applicable, as
specified in paragraph (a) or (b) above shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank the amount shown as
due on any such certificate delivered by it within 30 days after its receipt of the same.

 

 

     (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation for
any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on
capital shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such
compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be under any obligation to compensate any Lender
or the Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) above with respect to increased costs or reductions
with respect to any period prior to the date that is 120 days prior to such request if such Lender
or the Issuing Bank knew or could reasonably have been expected to know of the circumstances giving
rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the fact that such circumstances would result in
a claim for increased compensation by reason of such increased costs or reductions; provided
further that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or reductions arising
out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law within such 120-day period. The protection
of this Section shall be available to each Lender and the Issuing Bank regardless of any possible
contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law that shall have occurred or
been imposed.

     SECTION 2.15. Change in Legality. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any
Eurodollar Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any
Eurodollar Loan, then, by written notice to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent:

     (i) such Lender may declare that Eurodollar Loans will not thereafter (for the duration
of such unlawfulness) be made by such Lender hereunder (or be continued for additional
Interest Periods) and ABR Loans will not thereafter (for such duration) be converted into
Eurodollar Loans, whereupon any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing (or to convert an ABR
Borrowing to a Eurodollar Borrowing or to continue a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional
Interest Period) shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for an ABR Loan (or a
request to continue an ABR Loan as such for an additional Interest Period or to convert a
Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan, as the case may be), unless such declaration shall be
subsequently withdrawn; and

     (ii) such Lender may require that all outstanding Eurodollar Loans made by it be
converted to ABR Loans, in which event all such Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically
converted to ABR Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b)
below.

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under (i) or (ii) above, all payments and
prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurodollar Loans that
would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurodollar Loans of such Lender shall instead
be applied to repay the ABR Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion
of, such Eurodollar Loans.

     (b) For purposes of this Section 2.15, a notice to the Borrower by any Lender shall be
effective as to each Eurodollar Loan made by such Lender, if lawful, on the last day of the
Interest Period then applicable to such Eurodollar Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be
effective on the date of receipt by the Borrower.

     SECTION 2.16. Indemnity. The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss or
expense (but not against any lost profits) that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence
of (a) any event, other than a default by such Lender in the performance of its

 

 

obligations hereunder, which results in (i) such Lender receiving or being deemed to receive
any amount on account of the principal of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the Interest
Period in effect therefor, (ii) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan to an ABR Loan, or the
conversion of the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, in each case other than on
the last day of the Interest Period in effect therefor, or (iii) any Eurodollar Loan to be made by
such Lender (including any Eurodollar Loan to be made pursuant to a conversion or continuation
under Section 2.10) not being made after notice of such Loan shall have been given by the Borrower
hereunder (any of the events referred to in this clause (a) being called a “Breakage Event”) or (b)
any default in the making of any payment or prepayment of any Eurodollar Loan required to be made
hereunder. In the case of any Breakage Event, such loss shall include an amount equal to the
excess, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its cost of obtaining funds for the
Eurodollar Loan that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the period from the date of such
Breakage Event to the last day of the Interest Period in effect (or that would have been in effect)
for such Loan over (ii) the amount of interest likely to be realized by such Lender in redeploying
the funds released or not utilized by reason of such Breakage Event for such period. A certificate
of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant
to this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.

     SECTION 2.17. Pro Rata Treatment. Except as provided below in this Section 2.17 with respect
to Swingline Loans and as required under Section 2.13(f) or 2.15, each Borrowing, each payment or
prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Loans, each payment of
the Commitment Fees, each reduction of the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit
Commitments and each conversion of any Borrowing to or continuation of any Borrowing as a Borrowing
of any Type shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective
applicable Commitments (or, if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in
accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Loans). For purposes of
determining the available Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders at any time, each outstanding
Swingline Loan shall be deemed to have utilized the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders
(including those Lenders which shall not have made Swingline Loans) pro rata in accordance with
such respective Revolving Credit Commitments. Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender’s
portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion,
round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole dollar amount.

     SECTION 2.18. Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that if it shall, through the exercise
of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower or any other Loan Party,
or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other
security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under
any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means
(excluding means expressly contemplated elsewhere in this Agreement), obtain payment (voluntary or
involuntary) in respect of any Loan or Loans or L/C Disbursement as a result of which the unpaid
principal portion of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements shall be proportionately
less than the unpaid principal portion of the Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements of any
other Lender, it shall be deemed simultaneously to have purchased from such other Lender at face
value, and shall promptly pay to such other Lender the purchase price for, a participation in the
Loans and L/C Exposure of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the
Loans and L/C Exposure and participations in Loans

 

 

and L/C Exposure held by each Lender shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid
principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure then outstanding as the principal amount of its
Loans and L/C Exposure prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other
event was to the principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure outstanding prior to such exercise
of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event; provided, however, that if any such
purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.18 and the payment
giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall
be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored
without interest. The Borrower and Parent expressly consent to the foregoing arrangements and
agree that any Lender holding a participation in a Loan or L/C Disbursement deemed to have been so
purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to
any and all moneys owing by the Borrower and Parent to such Lender by reason thereof as fully as if
such Lender had made a Loan directly to the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

     SECTION 2.19. Payments. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment (including principal of or
interest on any Borrowing or any L/C Disbursement or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder and under
any other Loan Document not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due in
immediately available dollars, without setoff, defense or counterclaim. Each such payment (other
than (i) Issuing Bank Fees, which shall be paid directly to the Issuing Bank, and (ii) principal of
and interest on Swingline Loans, which shall be paid directly to the Swingline Lender except as
otherwise provided in Section 2.22(e)) shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at
Eleven Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10010. The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to
each Lender any payments received by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Lender.

     (b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, whenever any payment (including principal
of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such
payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such
case be included in the computation of interest or Fees, if applicable.

     (c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the
date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the
Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may
assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in
reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be,
the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower does not in fact make such payment, then each of
the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, and to pay
interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but
excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at a rate determined by the
Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds (which determination
shall be conclusive absent manifest error).

     SECTION 2.20. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the
Borrower or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and
clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes;

 

 

provided that, if the Borrower or any other Loan Party shall be required to deduct any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as
necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as
the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions
been made, (ii) the Borrower or such Loan Party shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower
or such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable law.

     (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable law.

     (c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank,
within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or
with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Loan
Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties,
interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto; provided that the
Borrower shall not be obligated to so indemnify any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing
Bank in respect of interest or penalties attributable to any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes to
the extent that such interest or penalties resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Lender or the Issuing Bank. A certificate as to the
amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Bank, or
by the Administrative Agent on behalf of itself, a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive
absent manifest error.

     (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the
Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental
Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of
such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

     (e) (i) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding
tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such
jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the
Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable
law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably
requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a
reduced rate.

     (ii) If a payment made to a Lender or Issuing Bank under this Agreement or any Loan Document
would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender or Issuing Bank
were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those
contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472((b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender or Issuing Bank
shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such other
time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such documentation prescribed by
applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such
additional documentation reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent

 

 

as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to
determine that such Lender or Issuing Bank has complied with such Lender or Issuing Bank’s
obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

     SECTION 2.21. Assignment of Commitments Under Certain Circumstances; Duty to Mitigate. (a)
In the event (i) any Lender or the Issuing Bank delivers a certificate requesting compensation
pursuant to Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender or the Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in
Section 2.15, (iii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or the
Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to
Section 2.20, (iv) any Lender refuses to consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification of
any Loan Document requested by the Borrower that requires the consent of a greater percentage of
the Lenders than the Required Lenders and such amendment, waiver or other modification is consented
to by the Required Lenders, or (v) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, in each case, the
Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (including with respect to the processing and
recordation fee referred to in Section 9.04(b)), upon notice to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as
the case may be, and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender or the Issuing Bank to transfer
and assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in
Section 9.04), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (or, in the case
of clause (iv) or (v) above, all of its interests, rights and obligations with respect to the Class
of Loans or Commitments that is the subject of the related consent, amendment, waiver or other
modification or in respect of which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, as the case may be) to an
Eligible Assignee that shall assume such assigned obligations and, with respect to clause (iv)
above, shall consent to such requested amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document
(which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that
(x) such assignment shall not conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or
other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, (y) the Borrower shall have received the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Credit Commitment is being
assigned, of the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consents shall not unreasonably be
withheld or delayed, and (z) the Borrower or such Eligible Assignee shall have paid to the affected
Lender or the Issuing Bank in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of the
principal of and interest accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Loans or L/C
Disbursements of such Lender or the Issuing Bank, respectively, plus all Fees (except, in the case
of a Defaulting Lender, any Fees not required to be paid to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to the
express provisions of this Agreement) and other amounts accrued for the account of such Lender or
the Issuing Bank hereunder with respect thereto (including any amounts under Sections 2.14 and
2.16); provided further that, if prior to any such transfer and assignment the circumstances or
event that resulted in such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s claim for compensation under Section
2.14, notice under Section 2.15 or the amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.20, as the case may be,
cease to cause such Lender or the Issuing Bank to suffer increased costs or reductions in amounts
received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, or cease to have the consequences
specified in Section 2.15, or cease to result in amounts being payable under Section 2.20, as the
case may be (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant
to paragraph (b) below), or if such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall waive its right to claim
further compensation under Section 2.14 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall withdraw
its notice under Section 2.15 or shall waive its right to further payments under Section 2.20 in
respect of such circumstances or event or shall consent to

 

 

the proposed amendment, waiver, consent or other modification or shall cease to be a
Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, then such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall not thereafter be
required to make any such transfer and assignment hereunder. Each Lender hereby grants to the
Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to
execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance necessary
to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated
by this Section 2.21(a).

     (b) If (i) any Lender or the Issuing Bank shall request compensation under Section 2.14, (ii)
any Lender or the Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.15 or (iii) the Borrower is
required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Governmental
Authority on account of any Lender or the Issuing Bank, pursuant to Section 2.20, then such Lender
or the Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts (which shall not require such Lender or the
Issuing Bank to incur an unreimbursed loss or unreimbursed cost or expense or otherwise take any
action inconsistent with its internal policies or legal or regulatory restrictions or suffer any
disadvantage or burden deemed by it to be significant) (x) to file any certificate or document
reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower or (y) to assign its rights and delegate and
transfer its obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if such
filing or assignment would reduce its claims for compensation under Section 2.14 or enable it to
withdraw its notice pursuant to Section 2.15 or would reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section
2.20, as the case may be, in the future. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs
and expenses incurred by any Lender or the Issuing Bank in connection with any such filing or
assignment, delegation and transfer.

     SECTION 2.22. Swingline Loans. (a) Swingline Commitment. Subject to the terms and
conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Swingline
Lender agrees to make loans to the Borrower at any time and from time to time on and after the
Closing Date and until the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the termination of the
Revolving Credit Commitments, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will
not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Swingline Loans exceeding $50,000,000 in
the aggregate or (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure, after giving effect to any Swingline
Loan, exceeding the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Each Swingline Loan shall be in a principal
amount that is an integral multiple of $250,000. The Swingline Commitment may be terminated or
reduced from time to time as provided herein. Within the foregoing limits, the Borrower may
borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans hereunder, subject to the terms, conditions and
limitations set forth herein.

     (b) Swingline Loans. The Borrower shall notify the Swingline Lender by fax, or by telephone
(promptly confirmed by fax), not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on the day of a
proposed Swingline Loan. Such notice shall be delivered on a Business Day, shall be irrevocable
and shall refer to this Agreement and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business
Day) and amount of such Swingline Loan and the wire transfer instructions for the account of the
Borrower to which the proceeds of the Swingline Loan should be disbursed. The Swingline Lender
shall make each Swingline Loan by wire transfer to the account specified in such request.

     (c) Prepayment. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to
prepay any Swingline Loan, in whole or in part, upon giving written or fax notice (or telephone
notice promptly confirmed by written, or fax notice) to the Swingline Lender before

 

 

12:00 (noon), New York City time, on the date of prepayment at the Swingline Lender’s address for
notices specified in Section 9.01.

     (d) Interest. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan and, subject to the provisions of
Section 2.07, shall bear interest as provided in Section 2.06(a).

     (e) Participations. The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative
Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day require the Revolving
Credit Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline
Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which
Revolving Credit Lenders will participate. The Administrative Agent will, promptly upon receipt of
such notice, give notice to each Revolving Credit Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s
Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. In furtherance of the foregoing, each
Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as
provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such
Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving
Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline
Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of
Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or
reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall comply with its obligation under this
paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in
Section 2.02(c) with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.02(c) shall apply, mutatis
mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders) and the Administrative Agent shall promptly
pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative
Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to
this paragraph and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the
Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender
from the Borrower (or other person on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after
receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be
promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative
Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made
their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may
appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not
relieve the Borrower (or other person liable for obligations of the Borrower) of any default in the
payment thereof.

     (f) Defaulting Lenders. If, at any time, a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then (i) if
any Swingline Exposure exists at such time, (A) all or any part of the Swingline Exposure of such
Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their
respective Pro Rata Percentages, but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’
Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and L/C Exposure does
not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Commitments and (B) if the
reallocation described in clause (A) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower
shall, within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent, prepay such Swingline
Exposure and (ii) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (A) the Swingline Lender shall not
be required to fund any Swingline Loan,

 

 

unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of
the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateralized, and (B) participating interests in any newly
made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with
clause (i)(A) above (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

     SECTION 2.23. Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions herein
set forth, the Borrower may request the issuance of a Letter of Credit for its own account or for
the account of any of the Subsidiaries (in which case the Borrower and such Subsidiary shall be
co-applicants with respect to such Letter of Credit), in a form reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time while the L/C
Commitment remains in effect. This Section shall not be construed to impose an obligation upon the
Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit that is inconsistent with the terms and conditions of
this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.23 or
elsewhere in this Agreement, in the event that a Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no
Issuing Bank shall be required to issue any Letter of Credit unless such Issuing Bank has entered
into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to it and the Borrower to eliminate such Issuing Bank’s
risk with respect to the participation in Letters of Credit by all such Defaulting Lenders,
including by cash collateralizing each such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the
applicable L/C Exposure.

     (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. In order to
request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or to amend, renew or extend an existing Letter of
Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or fax to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent
(reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice
requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended,
renewed or extended, the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the date on which such
Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) below), the amount of such
Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as
shall be necessary to prepare such Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended,
renewed or extended only if, and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of
Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that, after giving effect to such
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the L/C Exposure shall not exceed $350,000,000 and
(ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Total Revolving Credit
Commitment.

     (c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at the close of business on the
earlier of the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit and the date
that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, unless such Letter of
Credit expires by its terms on an earlier date; provided, however, that a Letter of Credit may,
upon the request of the Borrower, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be
renewed automatically for additional consecutive periods of 12 months or less (but not beyond the
date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date) unless the Issuing
Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof at least 30 days (or such longer period as may be specified
in such Letter of Credit) prior to the then-applicable expiration date that such Letter of Credit
will not be renewed.

     (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit and without any further action on
the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving
Credit Lender, and each such Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in

 

 

such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate amount
available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, effective upon the issuance of such Letter of
Credit or, in the case of the Existing Letters of Credit, effective upon the Restatement Effective
Date. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby
absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the
Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank
and not reimbursed by the Borrower (or, if applicable, another party pursuant to its obligations
under any other Loan Document) forthwith on the date due as provided in Section 2.02(f). Each
Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations
pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall
not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a
Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset,
abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

     (e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a
Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C
Disbursement not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the immediately following Business
Day after the Issuing Bank notifies the Borrower thereof.

     (f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations to reimburse L/C Disbursements as
provided in paragraph (e) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be
performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and all circumstances
whatsoever, and irrespective of:

     (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any Loan
Document, or any term or provision therein;

     (ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the
provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document;

     (iii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower, any
other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or other
Affiliate thereof or any other person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any
Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other
person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other
related or unrelated agreement or transaction;

     (iv) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be
forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being
untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

     (v) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a
draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and

     (vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the Issuing Bank, the
Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any other person or any other event or circumstance
whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the
provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower’s
obligations hereunder.

 

 

     Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed
that the absolute and unconditional obligation of the Borrower hereunder to reimburse L/C
Disbursements will not be excused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing
Bank. However, the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to
the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in
respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law)
suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s gross negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct in determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of
Credit comply with the terms thereof. It is further understood and agreed that the Issuing Bank
may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further
investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment
under any Letter of Credit (i) the Issuing Bank’s exclusive reliance on the documents presented to
it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on
the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the
beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented
pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its
face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented
pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to
be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever and (ii) any noncompliance in any immaterial
respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in
each case, be deemed not to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank.

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

     (h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a
Letter of Credit, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on such
date, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest for the account of the Issuing Bank, for each
day from and including the date of such L/C Disbursement, to but excluding the earlier of the date
of payment by the Borrower or the date on which interest shall commence to accrue thereon as
provided in Section 2.02(f), at the rate per annum that would apply to such amount if such amount
were an ABR Revolving Loan.

     (i) Resignation or Removal of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may resign at any time by
giving 30 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, and
may be removed at any time by the Borrower by notice to the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Issuing Bank hereunder by a Lender
that shall agree to serve as successor Issuing Bank, such successor shall succeed to and become
vested with all the interests, rights and obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank. At the time
such removal or resignation shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all accrued and unpaid
fees pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(ii). The acceptance of any

 

 

appointment as the Issuing Bank hereunder by a successor Lender shall be evidenced by an
agreement entered into by such successor, in a form satisfactory to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such successor
Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the previous Issuing Bank under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term
“Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to
such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation
or removal of the Issuing Bank hereunder, the retiring Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and
shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation
or removal, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

     (j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the
Borrower shall, on the Business Day it receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the
Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Credit Lenders
holding participations in outstanding Letters of Credit representing greater than 50% of the
aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit) thereof and of the amount to be
deposited, deposit in an account with the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Revolving Credit
Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the L/C Exposure as of such date. Such deposit shall be held
by the Collateral Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Obligations. The
Collateral Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of
withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits
in Permitted Investments, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the
Collateral Agent, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such
investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall (i) automatically be
applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which
it has not been reimbursed, (ii) be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of
the Borrower for the L/C Exposure at such time and (iii) if the maturity of the Loans has been
accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Credit Lenders holding participations in
outstanding Letters of Credit representing greater than 50% of the aggregate undrawn amount of all
outstanding Letters of Credit), be applied to satisfy the Obligations. If the Borrower is required
to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of
Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower
within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, following the incurrence by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Pari Passu Debt,
the treatment and application of any amounts provided by the Borrower as cash collateral hereunder
shall be subject to the terms and provisions of any applicable Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement
and, in the event of any conflict between the terms of such Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and
the terms of this paragraph (j), the terms of such Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement shall govern.

     (k) Additional Issuing Banks. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time with the
consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed)
and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms
of this Agreement. Any Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this paragraph (k) shall
be deemed to be an “Issuing Bank” (in addition to being a Lender) in respect

 

 

of Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and, with respect to such Letters
of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply to the other Issuing Bank and such Lender.

     SECTION 2.24. Incremental Term Loans. (a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the
Administrative Agent from time to time, request Incremental Term Loan Commitments in an amount not
to exceed the Incremental Term Loan Amount from one or more Incremental Term Lenders, which may
include any existing Lender; provided that each Incremental Term Lender, if not already a Lender
hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Such notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the
Incremental Term Loan Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of
$1,000,000 and a minimum amount of $25,000,000 or such lesser amount equal to the remaining
Incremental Term Loan Amount), (ii) the date on which such Incremental Term Loan Commitments are
requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 10 days nor more than 60 days after the
date of such notice, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent), and (iii) whether
such Incremental Term Loan Commitments are commitments to make additional Extended Term Loans or
commitments to make term loans with terms different from the Extended Term Loans, including Other
Term A Loans (“Other Term Loans”).

     (b) The Borrower and each Incremental Term Lender shall execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as
the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Term Loan Commitment
of each Incremental Term Lender. Each Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement shall specify the
terms of the Incremental Term Loans to be made thereunder; provided that, without the prior written
consent of the Required Lenders, (i) the final maturity date of any Other Term Loans (other than
any Other Term A Loans) shall be no earlier than the Extended Term Loan Maturity Date, (ii) the
average life to maturity of the Other Term Loans (other than any Other Term A Loans) shall be no
shorter than the average life to maturity of the Term Loans and (iii) if the initial yield
(excluding upfront or arrangement fees payable to the arranger, if any, of such loan) on such Other
Term Loans (as determined by the Administrative Agent to be equal to the sum of (x) the margin
above the Adjusted LIBO Rate on such Other Term Loans (which shall be increased by the amount that
any “LIBOR floor” applicable to such Other Term Loans on the date such Other Term Loans are made
would exceed the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would be in effect for a three-month Interest Period
commencing on such date and (y) if such Other Term Loans are initially made at a discount or the
Lenders making the same (as opposed to the arranger, if any, thereof) receive a fee directly or
indirectly from Parent, the Borrower or any Subsidiary for doing so (the amount of such discount or
fee, expressed as a percentage of the Other Term Loans, being referred to herein as “OID”), the
amount of such OID divided by the lesser of (A) the average life to maturity of such Other Term
Loans and (B) four) exceeds by more than 50 basis points the sum of (1) the margin then in effect
for Eurodollar Term Loans of any Class (other than Other Term A Loans) (which shall be the sum of
the Applicable Percentage for Eurodollar Term Loans of such Class increased by the amount that any
“LIBOR floor” applicable to such Eurodollar Term Loans on such date would exceed the Adjusted LIBO
Rate that would be in effect for a three-month Interest Period commencing on such date) plus (2)
the OID (if any) initially paid in respect of such Term Loans (for any Class of Term Loans, the
applicable amount of such excess above 50 basis points being referred to herein as the “Yield
Differential”) then the Applicable Percentage then in effect for Eurodollar Term Loans of any
Class, then the Applicable Percentage then in effect for such Class

 

 

of Term Loans shall automatically be increased by the applicable Yield Differential, effective
upon the making of the Other Term Loans. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each
Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement. Each of the
parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Term Loan Assumption
Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary
to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Term Loan Commitment and the Incremental Term
Loans evidenced thereby.

     (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Term Loan Commitment shall become effective
under this Section 2.24 unless (i) on the date of such effectiveness, the conditions set forth in
paragraphs (b) and (c) of Section 4.01 shall be satisfied and the Administrative Agent shall have
received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the
Borrower, (ii) except as otherwise specified in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Assumption
Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and other
closing certificates reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and consistent with those
delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.02 of the Original Credit Agreement and (iii)
immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans and the use of the
proceeds thereof, the Secured Leverage Ratio Condition would be satisfied.

     (d) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may, in
consultation with the Borrower, take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure
that all Incremental Term Loans (other than Other Term Loans), when originally made, are included
in each Borrowing of outstanding Extended Term Loans on a pro rata basis. This may be accomplished
by requiring each outstanding Eurodollar Extended Term Borrowing to be converted into an ABR Term
Borrowing on the date of each Incremental Term Loan, or by allocating a portion of each Incremental
Term Loan to each outstanding Eurodollar Extended Term Borrowing on a pro rata basis. Any
conversion of Eurodollar Term Loans to ABR Term Loans required by the preceding sentence shall be
subject to Section 2.16. If any Incremental Term Loan is to be allocated to an existing Interest
Period for a Eurodollar Term Borrowing, then the interest rate thereon for such Interest Period and
the other economic consequences thereof shall be as set forth in the applicable Incremental Term
Loan Assumption Agreement. In addition, to the extent any Incremental Term Loans are not Other
Term Loans, the scheduled amortization payments under Section 2.11(a)(iii) required to be made
after the making of such Incremental Term Loans shall be ratably increased by the aggregate
principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans.

     SECTION 2.25. Revolving Credit Loan Modification Offers. (a) The Borrower may, by written
notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, make one or more offers (each, a “Revolving
Credit Loan Modification Offer”) to all the Revolving Credit Lenders to make one or more Permitted
Amendments pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably
acceptable to the Borrower. Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the
requested Permitted Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Permitted Amendment is requested to
become effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days nor more than 30 Business Days
after the date of such notice, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent). Permitted
Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Revolving
Credit Lenders that accept the

 

 

applicable
Revolving Credit Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the “Accepting Revolving Credit
Lenders”).

     (b) The Borrower and each Accepting Revolving Credit Lender shall execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent a Revolving Credit Loan Modification Agreement and such other documentation as
the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the acceptance of the Permitted
Amendments and the terms and conditions thereof. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Revolving Credit Loan Modification Agreement. Each of
the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Revolving Credit Loan
Modification Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the
extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Permitted Amendment evidenced thereby
and only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Accepting Revolving Credit Lenders,
including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the
Accepting Revolving Credit Lenders as a new “Class” of loans and/or commitments hereunder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Permitted Amendment shall become effective unless the
Administrative Agent, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, shall have
received legal opinions, board resolutions, officer’s and secretary’s certificates and other
documentation consistent with those delivered on the Restatement Effective Date under the Amendment
and Restatement Agreement.

     (c) “Permitted Amendments” means any or all of the following: (i) an extension of the
Revolving Credit Maturity Date applicable to the Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting
Revolving Credit Lenders, (ii) an increase in the Applicable Percentage with respect to the Loans
and/or Commitments of the Accepting Revolving Credit Lenders, (iii) the inclusion of additional
fees to be payable to the Accepting Revolving Credit Lenders, (iv) such amendments to this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents as shall be appropriate, in the reasonable judgment of the
Administrative Agent, to provide the rights and benefits of this Agreement and other Loan Documents
to each new “Class” of loans and/or commitments resulting therefrom, provided that (A) the
allocation of the participation exposure with respect to any then-existing or subsequently issued
or made Letter of Credit or Swingline Loan as between the commitments of such new “Class” and the
Commitments of the then-existing Revolving Credit Lenders shall be made on a ratable basis as
between the commitments of such new “Class” and the Commitments of the then-existing Revolving
Credit Lenders and (B) the L/C Commitment and Swingline Commitment may not be extended without the
prior written consent of the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, and (v) such
other amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as shall be appropriate, in the
judgment of the Administrative Agent, to give effect to the foregoing Permitted Amendments.

ARTICLE III

Representations and Warranties

     Each of Parent and the Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and each of the Lenders that:

     SECTION 3.01. Organization; Powers. Each of the Loan Parties (a) is duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, except, with
respect to Loan Parties other than Parent or the Borrower, to the extent that the failure of such
Loan Parties to be in good standing could not reasonably be expected to have a

 

 

Material Adverse Effect, (b) has all requisite power and authority to own its property and
assets and to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted, except to the
extent that the failure to possess such power and authority could not reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect, (c) is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing
in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required, except where the failure so to qualify
could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and (d) has the power and
authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Loan Documents and each
other agreement or instrument contemplated thereby to which it is or will be a party and, in the
case of the Borrower, to borrow hereunder.

     SECTION 3.02. Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance by the Loan Parties of
the Loan Documents to which they are a party and the making of the Borrowings hereunder (a) have
been duly authorized by all requisite corporate and, if required, stockholder action and (b) will
not (i) violate (A) any provision of law, statute, rule or regulation, or of the certificate or
articles of incorporation or other constitutive documents or by-laws of Parent, the Borrower or any

interest in the Collateral (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) and the proceeds
thereof, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting

 

 

creditors’ rights generally and general equitable principles, and (i) when the Pledged
Collateral (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) is delivered to the Collateral
Agent, the Lien created under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall constitute a fully
perfected first priority Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the
Loan Parties in such Pledged Collateral as to which perfection may be obtained by such actions, in
each case prior and superior in right to any other person, and (ii) when financing statements in
appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 3.19(a) (as such schedule may be
updated from time to time; provided, that such schedules shall be deemed to be updated when the
Borrower provides the relevant information in accordance with the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement), the Lien created under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement will constitute a fully
perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in
such Collateral (other than Intellectual Property, as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement) as to which perfection may be obtained by such filings, in each case prior and superior
in right to any other person, other than with respect to Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.02.

     (b) Upon the timely recordation of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (or a short-form
security agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Collateral
Agent) with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office,
together with the financing statements in appropriate form filed in the offices specified on
Schedule 3.19(a) (as such schedule may be updated from time to time; provided, that such schedules
shall be deemed to be updated when the Borrower provides the relevant information in accordance
with the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), the Lien created under 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 the Intellectual Property (as defined in the Guarantee and

in the United States and its territories and possessions, in each case prior and superior in right
to any other person other than with respect to Liens permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 (it being
understood that subsequent recordings in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the
United States Copyright Office may be necessary to perfect a Lien on registered trademarks and
patents, trademark and patent applications and registered copyrights acquired by the Loan Parties
after the Closing Date).

     (c) The Mortgages are effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable
benefit of the Secured Parties a legal, valid and enforceable Lien on all of the Loan Parties’
right, title and interest in and to the Mortgaged Property thereunder and the proceeds thereof, and
when the Mortgages are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 3.19(c), the Mortgages shall
constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of
the Loan Parties in such Mortgaged Property and the proceeds thereof, in each case prior and
superior in right to any other person, other than with respect to the rights of persons pursuant to
Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.02.

Effective Date, there are no strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against Parent, the Borrower or any
Subsidiary pending or, to the knowledge of Parent or the Borrower by delivery of written notice or
proceeding, threatened. The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to any right of
termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining
agreement to which Parent, the Borrower or any Subsidiary is bound. Except as set forth on
Schedule 3.21, as of the Restatement Effective Date, none of Parent, the Borrower or any Subsidiary
is a party to any collective bargaining agreement or other labor contract applicable to persons

than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of their debts and other
liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become
absolute and matured; (c) Parent, the Borrower and the Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, will
be able to pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts

     SECTION 5.09. Employee Benefits. (a) Comply in all material respects with the applicable

after, and in any event within ten days after any Responsible Officer of Parent, the Borrower or

Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate in an aggregate amount exceeding $10,000,000, a statement of a

that its obligation to do so is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings and
appropriate reserves are being maintained with respect to such circumstances in accordance with
GAAP.

     SECTION 5.11. Preparation of Environmental Reports. If a Default caused by reason of a
breach of Section 3.17 or Section 5.10 shall have occurred and be continuing for more than 20 days

Borrower shall provide to the Lenders within 45 days after receipt of such request, at the expense
of the Loan Parties, environmental site assessment reports (Phase I, Phase II and/or compliance
audits) regarding the matters which are the subject of such Default prepared by an environmental

Agent may reasonably request, in order to effectuate the transactions contemplated by the Loan
Documents and in order to grant, preserve, protect and perfect the validity and first priority of
the security interests created or intended to be created by the Security Documents. The Borrower
will cause any subsequently acquired or organized Material Subsidiary to become a Loan Party by
executing the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and each applicable Security Document in favor of
the Collateral Agent. In addition, except with respect to which, in the reasonable judgment of the
Administrative Agent (confirmed in writing by written notice to the Borrower), the cost or other
consequences (including any Tax consequence) of doing so shall be excessive in view of the benefits
to be obtained by the Lenders therefrom and subject to applicable limitations set forth in the
Security Documents, from time to time, the Borrower will, at its cost and expense, promptly secure
the Obligations by pledging or creating, or causing to be pledged or created, perfected security
interests with respect to such of its assets and properties as the Administrative Agent or the
Required Lenders shall designate (it being understood that it is the intent of the parties that the
Obligations shall be secured by substantially all the assets of Parent, the Borrower and the
Subsidiary Guarantors (including properties acquired subsequent to the Closing Date), except this
Section 5.12 shall not require Parent, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor to (a) pledge (i)
more than 65% of the outstanding voting Equity Interests in any Foreign Subsidiary, (ii) any Equity
Interest in any Non-Significant Subsidiary or (iii) any Equity Interest in any Permitted
Syndication Subsidiary, any Securitization Subsidiary or any Permitted Joint Venture Subsidiary to
the extent the pledge of the Equity Interest in such Subsidiary is prohibited by any applicable
Contractual Obligation or requirement of law, or (b) grant security interests in any asset that (i)
would result in the violation of the enforceable anti-assignment provision of any contract, or
would be prohibited by or would violate applicable law or contractual provisions (including any
right of first refusal) or would otherwise result in termination or any forfeiture under any
contract, (ii) is a vehicle or other asset subject to certificate of title, (iii) require
perfection through control agreements (including, to the extent required in the relevant
jurisdiction for deposit accounts and investment property), (iv) are minority Equity Interests or
(v) is permitted to be so excluded under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement. Such security
interests and Liens will be created under the Security Documents and other security agreements,
mortgages, deeds of trust and other instruments and documents in form and substance satisfactory to
the Collateral Agent, and the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Lenders all
such instruments and documents (including legal opinions, title insurance policies and lien
searches) as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request to evidence compliance with this
Section. Any requirement to mortgage real property that is acquired after the Closing Date
pursuant to this Section 5.12 shall be limited to real property owned in fee by a Loan Party that
(i) has a fair market value equal to or exceeding $10,000,000, (ii) is not subject to a Lien
permitted under Section 6.02(c) or (n) (for so long as such Lien exists), and (iii) the Borrower
does not intend to sell within six months of the acquisition thereof pursuant to clause (i) or (xi)
of Section 6.05(b). No appraisals, environmental reports or surveys shall be required to be
obtained in connection with any mortgage of real property pursuant to this Section 5.12.

 

 

The Borrower agrees to provide such evidence as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request
as to the perfection and priority status of each such security interest and Lien.

     SECTION 5.13. Proceeds of Certain Dispositions. If, as a result of the receipt of any cash
proceeds by Parent, the Borrower or any Subsidiary in connection with any sale, transfer, lease or
other disposition of any asset the Borrower would be required by the terms of the Senior Note
Indenture or the documentation governing any other Material Indebtedness that is unsecured or
secured by Liens junior to the Liens securing the Obligations to make an offer to purchase any of
the Indebtedness thereunder, then, prior to the first day on which the Borrower would be required
to commence such an offer to purchase, (i) prepay Loans in accordance with Section 2.12 or 2.13,
provided that the Borrower may use a portion of such cash proceeds to prepay or repurchase Pari
Passu Debt secured by Liens on the Collateral having the same priority as the Liens securing the
Obligations to the extent any applicable credit agreement, indenture or other agreement governing
such Pari Passu Debt requires the Borrower to prepay or make an offer to purchase such Pari Passu
Debt with such cash proceeds, in each case in an amount not to exceed the product of (A) the amount
of such cash proceeds and (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal
amount of such Pari Passu Debt and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal
amount of such Pari Passu Debt and the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans, or (ii) acquire
assets in a manner that is permitted hereby, in each case in a manner that will eliminate any such
requirement to make such an offer to purchase.

     SECTION 5.14. Operation of Facilities. Use commercially reasonable efforts to operate, and
cause the Subsidiaries to operate, the Facilities owned, leased or operated by Parent, the Borrower
or any of the Subsidiaries now or in the future in a manner believed by the Borrower to be
consistent with prevailing health care industry standards in the locations where the Facilities
exist from time to time, except to the extent failure to do so would not have a Material Adverse
Effect.

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent

     Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent
and the Collateral Agent (for purposes of this Article VIII, the Administrative Agent and the
Collateral Agent are referred to collectively as the “Agents”) its agent and authorizes the Agents
to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by
the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents are hereby expressly
authorized to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and
the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents.

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

     Neither Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the
Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) neither Agent shall be
subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and
is continuing, (b) neither Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise
any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that
such Agent is instructed in writing to exercise by the Required Lenders (or such other number or
percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section
9.08), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, neither Agent shall have any
duty to disclose, nor shall it be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to
Parent, the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank
serving as Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
Neither Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the
request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.08) or in the absence of its own gross
negligence or willful misconduct. Neither Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default
unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by Parent, the Borrower or a Lender,
and neither Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any
statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection

 

 

with any Loan Document, (ii) the
contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered
thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the
covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the
validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement,
instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or
elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be
delivered to such Agent.

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

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

     Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, either Agent
may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Upon any such
resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent (not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) of the Borrower, to appoint a successor; provided that during the existence
and continuation of an Event of Default pursuant to paragraph (b), (c), (g) or (h) of Article VII,
no consent of the Borrower shall be required. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the
Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent
gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the
Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York,
having a combined capital and surplus of at least $1,000,000,000, or an Affiliate of any such bank
and, so long as no Event of Default pursuant to paragraph (b), (c), (g) or (h) of Article VII shall
have occurred and be continuing, reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Upon the acceptance of its
appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested
with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to
a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed
between the Borrower and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of
this Article and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its
sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by any of them while acting as Agent.

     Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or
any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed

 

 

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

ARTICLE IX

     SECTION 9.01. Notices. Notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in

373-9704);

     (b) if to the Administrative Agent, to Credit Suisse AG, Eleven Madison Avenue, New York, NY

and

     (c) if to a Lender, to it at its address (or fax number) set forth on Schedule 2.01 or in
the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which such Lender shall have become a party hereto.

     All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt if delivered
by hand or overnight courier service or sent by fax or on the date five Business Days after
dispatch by certified or registered mail if mailed, in each case delivered, sent or mailed
(properly addressed) to such party as provided in this Section 9.01 or in accordance with the
latest unrevoked direction from such party given in accordance with this Section 9.01. As agreed
to among Parent, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lenders from time to
time, notices and other communications may also be delivered by e-mail to the e-mail address of a
representative of the applicable person provided from time to time by such person.

     Parent and the Borrower hereby acknowledge that (a) the Administrative Agent will make
available to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank materials and/or information provided by or on behalf
of the Borrower hereunder (collectively, the “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower
Materials on Intralinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b) certain of
the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material
non-public information with respect to each Borrower or its securities) (each, a “Public Lender”).
Parent and the Borrower hereby agree that (i) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available
to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall
mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (ii) by marking
Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public
information with respect to Parent and the Borrower or its securities for purposes of foreign,
United States Federal and state securities laws (provided,

 

 

however, that to the extent such
Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated
as set forth in Section 9.17); (iii) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to
be made available through a portion of the Platform designated as “Public Investor” and (iv) the
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC”
as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not marked as “Public Investor”.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Borrower Materials shall be marked “PUBLIC”, unless
Parent or the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent promptly that any such document contains
material non-public information: (A) the Loan Documents and (B) any notification of changes in the
terms of the Credit Facilities.

     Each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public
Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the
content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate,
in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including
foreign, United States Federal and state securities laws, to make reference to Communications that
are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may
contain material non-public information with respect to Parent or the Borrower or its securities
for purposes of foreign, United States Federal or state securities laws.

     THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY
OF ITS RELATED PARTIES WARRANTS THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ADEQUACY
OF THE PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE
COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR
FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS IS MADE BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS
RELATED PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER
OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER OR NOT BASED ON STRICT LIABILITY AND INCLUDING
DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN
TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S
TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY SUCH
PERSON IS FOUND IN A FINAL RULING BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY
FROM SUCH PERSON’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

     The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative
Agent at its e-mail address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the
Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees
that receipt of notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications
have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such
Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent
in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to

 

 

time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic
transmission and that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

     Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any
notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such
Loan Document.

     SECTION 9.02. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and
warranties made by the Borrower or Parent herein and in the certificates or other instruments
prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document
shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and the Issuing Bank and shall survive
the making by the Lenders of the Loans and the issuance of Letters of Credit by the Issuing Bank,
regardless of any investigation made by the Lenders or the Issuing Bank or on their behalf, and
shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any
Loan or any Fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is
outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have
not been terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.16, 2.20, 9.05 and 9.18 shall remain
operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement,
the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the
expiration of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or
unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any
investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or
the Issuing Bank.

     SECTION 9.03. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective as provided in the
Amendment and Restatement Agreement.

     SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties
hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and
assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of the Borrower,
Parent, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders that are
contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and
assigns.

     (b) Each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its
interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it), with notice to the Borrower and the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided,
however, that (i) in the case of an assignment of a Revolving Credit Commitment, each of the
Borrower, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender must also give its prior written consent to
such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (provided, that the
consent of the Borrower shall not be required to any such assignment made to another Lender or an
Affiliate of a Lender or after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default
referred to in paragraph (b), (c), (g) or (h) of Article VII), (ii) the amount of the Commitment or
Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the
Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent)
shall be not less than (x) $1,000,000 (with respect to an assignment of Term Loans) and (y)
$5,000,000 (with respect to an assignment of Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolving Loans) (or,
in any case, if less, the entire remaining amount of such

 

 

Lender’s Commitment or Loans of the relevant Class), (iii) the parties to each such assignment
shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance via an
electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent (or, if previously agreed with
the Administrative Agent, manually), and shall pay to the Administrative Agent a processing and
recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the
Administrative Agent), and (iv) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and all applicable tax forms. Upon acceptance
and recording pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 9.04, from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto
and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and (B) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the
extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations
under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the
remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender
shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections
2.14, 2.16, 2.20 and 9.05, as well as to any Fees accrued for its account and not yet paid).

     (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender
thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and
the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and
beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and
that its Term Loan Commitment and Revolving Credit Commitment, and the outstanding balances of its
Term Loans and Revolving Loans, in each case without giving effect to assignments thereof which
have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) except as set
forth in (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no
responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in
connection with this Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness,
sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document
furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or the
performance or observance by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any of its obligations under this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto;
(iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is an Eligible Assignee and is legally
authorized to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has
received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements
referred to in Section 3.05 or delivered pursuant to Section 5.04 and such other documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into
such Assignment and Acceptance; (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such assigning Lender 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 decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (vi) such assignee appoints
and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on
its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative
Agent and the Collateral Agent, respectively, by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance
with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be
performed by it as a Lender.

 

 

     (d) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall
maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance
delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and
the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans 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 Bank, the Collateral Agent 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, the Issuing Bank, the Collateral Agent and any
Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

     (e) Upon its receipt of, and consent to, a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed
by an assigning Lender and an assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the
assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation
fee referred to in paragraph (b) above, if applicable, and the written consent of the
Administrative Agent and, if required, the Borrower, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank to
such assignment and any applicable tax forms, the Administrative Agent shall promptly (i) accept
such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register.
No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this
paragraph (e).

     (f) Each Lender may without the consent of the Borrower, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing
Bank or the Administrative Agent sell participations to one or more banks or other persons in all
or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under
this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the
other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participating banks or
other persons shall be entitled to the benefit of the cost protection provisions contained in
Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 2.20 to the same extent as if they were Lenders (but, with respect to any
particular participant, to no greater extent than the Lender that sold the participation to such
participant) and (iv) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders
shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights
and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the
obligations of the Borrower relating to the Loans or L/C Disbursements and to approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments,
modifications or waivers decreasing any fees payable to such participating bank or person hereunder
or the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on the Loans in which such
participating bank or person has an interest, extending any scheduled principal payment date or
date fixed for the payment of interest on the Loans in which such participating bank or person has
an interest, increasing or extending the Commitments in which such participating bank or person has
an interest or releasing any Subsidiary Guarantor (other than pursuant to the terms thereof or in
connection with the sale of such Subsidiary Guarantor in a transaction permitted by Section 6.05)
or all or substantially all of the Collateral).

     (g) Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or
proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.04, disclose to the assignee or
participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Borrower

 

 

furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided that, prior to any such
disclosure of information designated by the Borrower as confidential, each such assignee or
participant or proposed assignee or participant shall execute an agreement whereby such assignee or
participant shall agree (subject to customary exceptions) to preserve the confidentiality of such
confidential information on terms no less restrictive than those applicable to the Lenders pursuant
to Section 9.17.

     (h) Any Lender may at any time assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
to secure extensions of credit to such Lender or in support of obligations owed by such Lender;
provided that no such assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or
substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

     (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting
Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing
from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option
to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be
obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein
shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise
such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall
be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC
hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such
Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be
liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for
which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto
hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the
date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or
other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in
instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or
liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, any SPC may (i) with
notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and
without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans
to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and
Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC
to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any
non-public information relating to its Loans to any investor, potential investor, rating agency,
commercial paper dealer, collateral manager, servicer or provider of any surety, guarantee or
credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

     (j) Neither Parent nor the Borrower shall assign or delegate any of its rights or duties
hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each
Lender, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void.

     (k) In the event that any Revolving Credit Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender or S&P,
Moody’s and Thompson’s BankWatch (or InsuranceWatch Ratings Service, in the case of Lenders that
are insurance companies (or Best’s Insurance Reports, if such insurance company is not rated by
Insurance Watch Ratings Service)) shall, after the date that any Lender becomes a Revolving Credit
Lender, downgrade the long-term certificate of deposit ratings of such Lender, and the resulting
ratings shall be below BBB-, Baa3 and C (or BB, in the case of a Lender that is

 

 

an insurance company (or B, in the case of an insurance company not rated by InsuranceWatch
Ratings Service)) (or, with respect to any Revolving Credit Lender that is not rated by any such
ratings service or provider, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender shall have reasonably
determined that there has occurred a material adverse change in the financial condition of any such
Lender, or a material impairment of the ability of any such Lender to perform its obligations
hereunder, as compared to such condition or ability as of the date that any such Lender became a
Revolving Credit Lender) then the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender shall have the right, but
not the obligation, at its own expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to
replace such Lender with an assignee (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained
in paragraph (b) above), and such Lender hereby agrees to transfer and assign without recourse (in
accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in paragraph (b) above) all its
interests, rights and obligations in respect of its Revolving Credit Commitment to such assignee;
provided, however, that (i) no such assignment shall conflict with any law, rule and regulation or
order of any Governmental Authority and (ii) the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender or such
assignee, as the case may be, shall pay to such Lender in immediately available funds on the date
of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans made
by such Lender hereunder and all other amounts accrued for such Lender’s account or owed to it
hereunder.

     SECTION 9.05. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) The Borrower and Parent agree, jointly and
severally, to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender in connection with the syndication of
the Credit Facilities and the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof
or thereof (whether or not the transactions hereby or thereby contemplated shall be consummated) or
incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender in connection with the
enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including the
fees, charges and disbursements of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, counsel for the Administrative
Agent and the Collateral Agent, and, in connection with any such enforcement or protection, the
fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel in each relevant jurisdiction (and any such
additional counsel, if necessary, as a result of actual or potential conflicts of interest) for the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders.

     (b) The Borrower and Parent agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Lender, the Issuing Bank and each Related Party of any of the
foregoing persons (each such person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each
Indemnitee harmless from, any and all actual losses, claims, damages, liabilities, penalties and
related reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of
one counsel in each relevant jurisdiction (and any such additional counsel, if necessary, as a
result of actual or potential conflicts of interest) for all Indemnitees, incurred by or asserted
against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the
execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument
contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations
thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated thereby
(including the syndication of the Credit Facilities), (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or
issuance of Letters of Credit, (iii) any claim, litigation,

 

 

investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is
a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by the
Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates), or (iv) any actual or
alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on any property currently or formerly owned or
operated by the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any
way to the Borrower or the Subsidiaries; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any
Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, penalties or
related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final judgment to have
resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

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

     (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither Parent nor the Borrower nor any
Indemnitee shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee or Parent and the
Borrower and each of their respective Affiliates, as applicable, on any theory of liability, for
special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages)
arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or
instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the
proceeds thereof.

     (e) The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect
regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the Commitments, the
expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of
this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank. All amounts due under
this Section 9.05 shall be payable, within 30 days of written demand therefor with a reasonably
detailed summary of the amounts claimed.

     SECTION 9.06. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
each Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time,
except to the extent prohibited by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time
owing by such Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the
Borrower or Parent against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower or Parent now or
hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such Lender, provided that
at such time such obligations are due or payable. The rights of each Lender and Affiliates of such
Lender under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and

 

 

remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender
may have.

     SECTION 9.07. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN
LETTERS OF CREDIT AND AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH LETTER OF CREDIT SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OR RULES DESIGNATED IN SUCH LETTER
OF CREDIT, OR IF NO SUCH LAWS OR RULES ARE DESIGNATED, THE UNIFORM CUSTOMS AND PRACTICE FOR
DOCUMENTARY CREDITS MOST RECENTLY PUBLISHED AND IN EFFECT, ON THE DATE SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT WAS
ISSUED, BY THE INTERNATIONAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE (THE “UNIFORM CUSTOMS”) AND, AS TO MATTERS NOT
GOVERNED BY THE UNIFORM CUSTOMS, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

     SECTION 9.08. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank in exercising any power or right hereunder or
under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such
a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right
or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing
Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not
exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of
this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower or any other
Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by
paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on the Borrower or Parent in any
case shall entitle the Borrower or Parent to any other or further notice or demand in similar or
other circumstances.

     (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof, may be waived, amended or modified
except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower, Parent and
the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no such agreement shall (i) decrease the principal
amount of, or extend the maturity of or any scheduled principal payment date or date for the
payment of any interest on any Loan or any date for reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement, or waive
or excuse any such payment or any part thereof, or decrease the rate of interest on any Loan or L/C
Disbursement, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby,
(ii) increase or extend the Commitment or decrease or extend the date for payment of any Fees of
any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender, (iii) amend or modify the pro rata
requirements of Section 2.17, the provisions of Section 9.04(j) or the provisions of this Section
or release all or substantially all of the value of the Subsidiary Guarantors (other than pursuant
to the terms hereof or thereof or in connection with the sale of such Subsidiary Guarantor in a
transaction permitted by Section 6.05) or all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the
prior written consent of each Lender, (iv) change the provisions of any Loan Document in a manner
that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to Lenders holding Loans
of one Class differently from the rights of Lenders holding Loans of any other Class without the
prior written consent of Lenders holding a

 

 

majority in interest of
the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each adversely affected Class, (v) modify the
protections afforded to an SPC pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.04(i) without the written
consent of such SPC or (vi) reduce the percentage contained in the definition of the term “Required
Lenders” without the prior written consent of each Lender (it being understood that with the
consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be
included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Term
Loan Commitments and Revolving Credit Commitments on the date hereof); provided further that no
such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder or under any other
Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent,
the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender.

     SECTION 9.09. Certain Releases of Guarantees and Security Interests. (a) Subject to the
terms of any Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, upon the closing of any Asset Sale consisting of
the sale of all of the Equity Interests of any Subsidiary Guarantor permitted pursuant to Section
6.05, (i) the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender, and (ii) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders will, upon
the request and at the sole expense of the Borrower, execute and deliver any instrument or other
document in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent which may reasonably be required to
evidence such discharge and release, all without representation, recourse or warranty.

     (b) Subject to the terms of any Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, upon the closing of any
Asset Sale consisting of the sale of Equity Interests of any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other
Subsidiary of the Borrower permitted pursuant to Section 6.05, (i) the Collateral Agent shall
release to the Borrower, without representation, warranty or recourse, express or implied, the
pledged Equity Interests of such Subsidiary Guarantor or other Subsidiary, as applicable, held by
it, (ii) the Collateral Agent shall release its security interest in all Collateral of such
Subsidiary, including any Mortgages, and (iii) the Collateral Agent will, upon the request and at
the sole expense of the Borrower, execute and deliver any instrument or other document in a form
acceptable to the Collateral Agent which may reasonably be required to evidence such release.

     (c) Subject to the terms of any Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, upon consummation by the
Borrower or any Subsidiary of a Permitted Interest Transfer or designation of an Unrestricted
Subsidiary in accordance with the terms hereof, (i) the Collateral Agent shall release to the
Borrower, without representation, warranty or recourse, express or implied, those Equity Interests
of the Subsidiary that are the subject of such Permitted Interest Transfer or designation in
accordance with clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 9.09(b) and shall release any pledged note
theretofore pledged to the extent such note is being discharged in connection with such Permitted
Interest Transfer or designation, and (ii) if such Subsidiary whose shares are the subject of such
Permitted Interest Transfer or designation is a Subsidiary Guarantor, the obligations of such
Subsidiary under its Guarantee shall automatically be discharged and released in accordance with
clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 9.09(a) and any Lien granted by such Subsidiary under the Loan
Documents shall automatically be discharged and released.

     (d) Subject to the terms of any Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agent
will, upon the request and at the sole expense of the Borrower, execute and deliver any

 

 

instrument or other document in a form acceptable to the Collateral Agent which may be
reasonably be required to discharge and release, all without representation, recourse or warranty,
any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document (i)
upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of the principal and interest on each Loan,
all Fees and all other expenses or amounts payable under any Loan Document and cancellation or
expiration of all Letters of Credit and reimbursement of all amounts drawn thereunder in full (or
other arrangements having been entered into with respect thereto acceptable to the Issuing Bank and
the Administrative Agent), (ii) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any
sale permitted hereunder to a Person other than the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, and upon
consummation by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any such disposition, any Lien granted by the
Borrower or such Subsidiary under the Loan Documents on such Collateral shall automatically be
discharged and released, and (iii) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders will, upon the request
and at the sole expense of the Borrower, execute and deliver any instrument or other document in a
form acceptable to the Administrative Agent which may reasonably be required to evidence such
discharge and release, all without representation, recourse or warranty.

     (e) Subject to the terms of any Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, upon notification by the
Borrower to the Collateral Agent that a Subsidiary Guarantor is a Non-Significant Subsidiary, and
would not be required to become a Guarantor in accordance with the terms hereof, the Collateral
Agent shall release the obligations of such Subsidiary under its Guarantee and shall release and
discharge any Lien granted by such Subsidiary Guarantor under the Loan Documents in accordance with
clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 9.09(a).

     SECTION 9.10. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if
at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or participation in any L/C Disbursement,
together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan or
participation in such L/C Disbursement under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall
exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken,
received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan or participation in accordance with applicable
law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan or participation hereunder, together with
all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent
lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan or
participation but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 9.10 shall be
cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or
participations or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such
cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of
repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

     SECTION 9.11. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Fee Letter and the other Loan Documents
constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any
other previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded
by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan
Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any person (other than the parties
hereto and thereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereunder (including any
Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit) and, to the extent expressly
contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the

 

 

Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any rights, remedies, obligations or
liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

     SECTION 9.12. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF
ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE
EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE
OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS,
AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.12.

     SECTION 9.13. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and
therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the
invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect
the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in
good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid
provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal
or unenforceable provisions.

     SECTION 9.14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different
parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of
which when taken together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as
provided in Section 9.03. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile
transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.

     SECTION 9.15. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein
are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the
construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

     SECTION 9.16. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) Each of Parent and the
Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the
exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America
sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding
arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or
enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in
such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties
hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be
enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.
Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have

 

 

to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
against the Borrower, Parent or their respective properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

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

     (c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner
provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party
to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

     SECTION 9.17. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the
Issuing Bank and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined
below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ officers,
directors, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being
understood that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential
nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent
requested by any regulatory authority or quasi-regulatory authority (such as the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or
regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) in connection with the exercise of any
remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or any suit, action or proceeding relating to
the enforcement of its rights hereunder or thereunder, (e) subject to an agreement containing
provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.17, to (i) any actual or prospective
assignee of or participant in any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or
derivative transaction relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective
obligations, (f) with the consent of the Borrower or (g) to the extent such Information becomes
publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.17. For the purposes of
this Section, “Information” shall mean all information received from the Borrower or Parent and
related to the Borrower or Parent or their business, other than any such information that was
available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a
nonconfidential basis prior to its disclosure by the Borrower or Parent; provided that any Lender,
the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Issuing Bank shall give Parent prior notice
of any disclosure pursuant to clause (c) to the extent permissible. Any person required to
maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.17 shall be considered to
have complied with its obligation to do so if such person has exercised the same degree of care to
maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such person would accord its own confidential
information.

     SECTION 9.18. USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself
and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Parent and the Borrower that pursuant to the
requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies Parent and the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Parent and
the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as
applicable, to identify Parent and the Borrower in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.

 

 

     SECTION 9.19. Effect of Certain Inaccuracies. In the event that any financial statement
or certificate delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(a) or (b) and Section 5.04(c), respectively, is
inaccurate within one year after delivery thereof, and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have
led to the application of a higher Applicable Percentage or a higher Commitment Fee for any period
(an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Percentage or Commitment Fee applied for such
Applicable Period, then (i) the Borrower shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent a
corrected financial statement and a corrected compliance certificate for such Applicable Period,
(ii) the Applicable Percentage and the Commitment Fee shall be determined based on the corrected
compliance certificate for such Applicable Period, and (iii) the Borrower shall promptly pay to the
Administrative Agent (for the accounts of the applicable Lenders during the Applicable Period or
their successors and assigns) the accrued additional interest or additional Commitment Fees (or
both) owing as a result of such increased Applicable Percentage or Commitment Fee for such
Applicable Period. This Section 9.19 shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders with respect to Section 2.07 or Article VII.

     SECTION 9.20. Pari Passu Obligations. (a) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank acknowledges
that Pari Passu Debt Obligations may be secured by Liens on the Collateral having the same priority
as, or junior priority to, the Liens securing the Obligations and hereby consents thereto.

     (b) In connection with the incurrence by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of Pari Passu Debt,
each Lender and each Issuing Bank (i) acknowledges that, at the request of the Borrower, each of
the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent shall enter into one or more Pari Passu
Intercreditor Agreements, (ii) authorizes and directs each Agent to execute and deliver any Pari
Passu Intercreditor Agreement and any documents relating thereto, in each case on behalf of such
Lender or Issuing Bank and without any further consent, authorization or other action by such
Lender or Issuing Bank, (iii) authorizes and directs each Agent to act as its representative under,
and in connection with, any Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, (iv) acknowledges that any Pari
Passu Intercreditor Agreement may contain provisions that permit or require the Liens securing the
Obligations and the Pari Passu Debt Obligations to be granted in favor of a single collateral agent
trustee, which may not be the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (a “Shared Collateral
Agent”), (v) acknowledges that any Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement may provide that the holders
of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Obligations and Pari Passu Debt Obligations, voting
as a single class, may direct the Shared Collateral Agent with respect to enforcement or the
actions concerning the Collateral, and (vi) agrees that, upon the execution and delivery thereof,
it will be bound by the provisions of any Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement as if it were a
signatory thereto and will take no actions contrary to the provisions thereof. Each Lender and
each Issuing Bank further authorizes and directs each Agent to enter into such amendments,
supplements or other modifications to any Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement as are reasonably
acceptable to the Administrative Agent in order to (A) enable any extension, renewal, refinancing,
replacement or additional incurrence of any Loans or any Pari Passu Debt permitted under this
Agreement and (B) provide for the Pari Passu Debt Obligations thereunder to be secured by Liens on
the Collateral having the same priority as, or junior priority to, the Liens on the Collateral
securing the Obligations, in each case on behalf of such Lender or such Issuing Bank and without
any further consent, authorization or other action by such Lender or such Issuing Bank.

 

 

     (c) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank (i) acknowledges that, at the request of the Borrower,
each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall, to the extent required by the
terms of (or in order to implement the provisions of) any Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement,
delegate, assign and/or transfer any or all of its rights, duties, remedies, powers or obligations
with respect to the Collateral to a Shared Collateral Agent and (ii) hereby consents to any such
delegation, assignment or transfer. The exculpatory provisions of Article VIII shall apply to any
Shared Collateral Agent and to the Related Parties thereof, and shall apply to their respective
activities in connection with the Collateral and with any Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement or any
other Loan Documents.

     (d) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank (i) acknowledges that, at the request of the Borrower,
each of the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent shall (A) amend, substitute,
supplement or otherwise modify the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, (B) amend, substitute,
replace, supplement or otherwise modify any other Security Document, (C) enter into additional
Security Documents and (D) take such further actions as are reasonably incidental to the foregoing,
in each case as are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in
order to (1) enable the Borrower or any Subsidiary to incur Pari Passu Debt otherwise permitted to
be waived hereunder and (2) provide for the Pari Passu Debt Obligations thereunder to be secured,
in accordance with the terms of any Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, by Liens on the Collateral
having the same priority as, or junior priority to, the Liens on the Collateral securing the
Obligations, (ii) authorizes and directs each Agent to execute and deliver any such amendments,
supplements, agreements and other documents, in each case on behalf of such Lender or Issuing Bank
and without any further consent, authorization or other action by such Lender or Issuing Bank and
(iii) agrees that, upon the execution and delivery thereof, it will be bound by the provisions of
such amendments, supplements, agreements and other documents as if it were a signatory thereto and
will take no actions contrary to the provisions thereof.

     (e) Without limiting the foregoing, no Secured Party shall have any right individually to
realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Obligations, it being
understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be
exercised solely by the Agents on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms
thereof (subject, in the case of the Collateral, to the provisions of any Pari Passu Intercreditor
Agreement). In the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent or any Shared Collateral Agent
on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, any Lender may

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to

pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Credit Agreement that it requests a Borrowing under the Credit

than 12:00 (noon) (New York City time), three Business Days before a proposed
Borrowing and (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 (noon)

performance of its obligations hereunder, which results in (i) such Lender receiving or being
deemed to receive any amount on account of the principal of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of
the Interest Period in effect therefor, (ii) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan to an ABR Loan,
or the conversion of the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, in each case other

Borrower hereunder (any of the events referred to in this paragraph being called a “Breakage
Event”) or (b) any default in the making of any payment or prepayment of any Eurodollar Loan
required to be made hereunder. In the case of any Breakage Event, such loss shall include an
amount equal to the excess, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its cost of obtaining
funds for the Eurodollar Loan that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the period from the
date of such Breakage Event to the last day of the Interest Period in effect (or that would have
been in effect) for such Loan over (ii) the amount of interest likely to be realized by such Lender

THIS MORTGAGE, ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS, SECURITY AGREEMENT AND
FINANCING STATEMENT dated as of                     , 20[•] (this “Mortgage”),
by [           ], a [           ] corporation, having an office at [           ] (the
“Mortgagor”), to CREDIT SUISSE AG, a bank organized under the laws of
Switzerland, having an office at Eleven Madison Avenue, New York, New York
10010 (the “Mortgagee”) as Collateral Agent for the Secured Parties (as
such terms are defined below).

WITNESSETH THAT:

     Reference is made to (i) the Credit Agreement dated as of July 25, 2007, as amended and
restated as of November 5, 2010 (as further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified
from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among CHS/Community Health Systems, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Borrower”), Community Health Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”),
the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”) and Credit Suisse AG as administrative
agent (the “Administrative Agent”) for the Lenders, collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”) for
the Secured Parties, swingline lender (the “Swingline Lender”) and issuing bank (the “Issuing
Bank”) with respect to any letters of credit (the “Letters of Credit”) issued pursuant to the terms
of the Credit Agreement and (ii) the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement dated as of July 25, 2007,
as amended and restated as of November 5, 2010 (as further amended, supplemented or otherwise
modified from time to time, the “Guarantee and Collateral Agreement”) among Parent, the Borrower,
the Subsidiaries identified therein and the Collateral Agent. Capitalized terms used but not
defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement and the Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement.

     In the Credit Agreement, (i) the Lenders have agreed to make term loans (the “Term Loans”) and
revolving loans (the “Revolving Loans”) to the Borrower, (ii) the Swingline Lender has agreed to
make swingline loans (the “Swingline Loans”, together with Term Loans and Revolving Loans, the
“Loans”) to the Borrower and (iii) the Issuing Bank has issued or agreed to issue from time to time
Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower, in each case pursuant to, upon the terms, and
subject to the conditions specified in, the Credit Agreement. Amounts paid in respect of Term
Loans may not be reborrowed. Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, Borrower may borrow,
prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans.

     Mortgagor is a wholly-owned direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Borrower and will derive
substantial benefit from the making of the Loans by the Lenders and the issuance of the Letters of
Credit by the Issuing Bank. In order to induce the Lenders to make Loans and the Issuing Bank to
issue Letters of Credit, the Mortgagor has agreed to guarantee, among other things, the due and
punctual payment and performance of all of the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit
Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.

 

 

     The obligations of the Lenders to make Loans and of the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of
Credit are conditioned upon, among other things, the execution and delivery by the Mortgagor of
this Mortgage in the form hereof to secure the Obligations.

     As used in this Mortgage, the term “Secured Parties” shall mean (a) the Lenders, (b) the
Administrative Agent, (c) the Collateral Agent, (d) any Issuing Bank, (e) each counterparty to any
Hedging Agreement with a Loan Party that either (i) is in effect on the Closing Date if such
counterparty is the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or a
Lender as of the Closing Date or (ii) is entered into after the Closing Date if such counterparty
is the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or a Lender at
the time such Hedging Agreement is entered into, (f) each counterparty to any arrangement with
Parent, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of Cash Management Obligations in
effect on the Closing Date or entered into after the Closing Date, (g) the beneficiaries of each
indemnification obligation undertaken by any Loan Party under any Loan Document and (h) the
successors and assigns of each of the foregoing.

     Pursuant to the requirements of the Credit Agreement, the Mortgagor is granting this Mortgage
to create a lien on and a security interest in the Mortgaged Property (as hereinafter defined) to
secure the performance and payment by the Mortgagor of the Obligations. The Credit Agreement also
requires the granting by other Loan Parties of mortgages, deeds of trust and/or deeds to secure
debt (the “Other Mortgages”) that create liens on and security interests in certain real and
personal property other than the Mortgaged Property to secure the performance of the Obligations.

Granting Clauses

     NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION OF the foregoing and in order to secure the due and punctual
payment and performance of the Obligations for the benefit of the Secured Parties, Mortgagor hereby

enforceable lien upon and security interest in all of the Mortgaged Property.

     (e) Mortgagor will forever warrant and defend its title to the Mortgaged Property, the rights
of Mortgagee therein under this Mortgage and the validity and priority of the lien of this Mortgage
thereon against the claims of all persons and parties except those having rights under the Liens
set forth in Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement to the extent of those rights.

     SECTION
1.02. Credit Agreement. This Mortgage is given pursuant to the Credit
Agreement. Mortgagor expressly covenants and agrees to pay when due, and to timely perform, and to
cause the other Loan Parties to pay when due, and to timely perform, the Obligations in accordance
with their terms.

     SECTION
1.03. Payment of Taxes, and Other Obligations. (a) Mortgagor will pay and
discharge from time to time prior to the time when the same shall become delinquent, and before any
interest or penalty accrues thereon or attaches thereto, all Taxes and other obligations with
respect to the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof or upon the Rents from the Mortgaged Property
or arising in respect of the occupancy, use or possession thereof in accordance with, and to the
extent required by, the Credit Agreement.

     (b) In the event of the passage of any state, Federal, municipal or other governmental law,
order, rule or regulation subsequent to the date hereof (i) deducting from the value of real
property for the purpose of taxation any lien or encumbrance thereon or in any manner changing or
modifying the laws now in force governing the taxation of this Mortgage or debts secured by
mortgages or deeds of trust (other than laws governing income, franchise and similar taxes
generally) or the manner of collecting taxes thereon and (ii) imposing a tax

 

 

to be paid by Mortgagee, either directly or indirectly, on this Mortgage or any of the Loan
Documents, or requiring an amount of taxes to be withheld or deducted therefrom, Mortgagor will
promptly (i) notify Mortgagee of such event, (ii) enter into such further instruments as Mortgagee
may determine are reasonably necessary or desirable to obligate Mortgagor to make any additional
payments necessary to put the Lenders and Secured Parties in the same financial position they would
have been if such law, order, rule or regulation had not been passed and (iii) make such additional
payments to Mortgagee for the benefit of the Lenders and Secured Parties.

     SECTION
1.04. Maintenance of Mortgaged Property. Mortgagor will maintain the
Improvements and the Personal Property in the manner required by the Credit Agreement.

     SECTION
1.05. Insurance. Mortgagor will keep or cause to be kept the Improvements
and Personal Property insured against such risks, and in the manner, described in Section 4.03(l)
of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and shall purchase such additional insurance as may be
required from time to time pursuant to Section 5.02 of the Credit Agreement. Federal Emergency
Management Agency Standard Flood Hazard Determination Forms will be purchased by Mortgagor for each
Mortgaged Property on which Improvements are located. If any portion of Improvements constituting
part of the Mortgaged Property is located in an area identified as a special flood hazard area by
Federal Emergency Management Agency or other applicable agency, Mortgagor will purchase flood
insurance in an amount reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, but in no event less than the maximum
limit of coverage available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended.

     SECTION
1.06. Casualty Condemnation/Eminent Domain. Mortgagor shall give Mortgagee
prompt written notice of any casualty or other damage to the Mortgaged Property or any proceeding
for the taking of the Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof or interest therein under power of
eminent domain or by condemnation or any similar proceeding in accordance with, and to the extent
required by, the Credit Agreement. Any Net Cash Proceeds received by or on behalf of the Mortgagor
in respect of any such casualty, damage or taking shall constitute trust funds held by the
Mortgagor for the benefit of the Secured Parties to be applied to repair, restore or replace the
Mortgaged Property or, if a prepayment event shall occur with respect to any such Net Cash
Proceeds, to be applied in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

     SECTION
1.07. Assignment of Leases and Rents. (a) Mortgagor hereby irrevocably
and absolutely grants, transfers and assigns all of its right title and interest in all Leases,
together with any and all extensions and renewals thereof for purposes of securing and discharging
the performance by Mortgagor of the Obligations. Mortgagor has not assigned or executed any
assignment of, and will not assign or execute any assignment of, any Leases or the Rents payable
thereunder to anyone other than Mortgagee.

     (b) Except for those Leases set forth in Section 6.02(l) of the Credit Agreement, all Leases
shall be subordinate to the lien of this Mortgage. Except for those Leases set forth in Section
6.02(l) of the Credit Agreement, Mortgagor will not enter into, modify or amend any

 

 

Lease if such Lease, as entered into, modified or amended, will not be subordinate to the lien
of this Mortgage.

     (c) Subject to Section 1.07(d), Mortgagor has assigned and transferred to Mortgagee all of
Mortgagor’s right, title and interest in and to the Rents now or hereafter arising from each Lease
heretofore or hereafter made or agreed to by Mortgagor, it being intended that this assignment
establish, subject to Section 1.07(d), an absolute transfer and assignment of all Rents and all
Leases to Mortgagee and not merely to grant a security interest therein. Subject to
Section 1.07(d), Mortgagee may in Mortgagor’s name and stead (with or without first taking
possession of any of the Mortgaged Property personally or by receiver as provided herein) operate
the Mortgaged Property and rent, lease or let all or any portion of any of the Mortgaged Property
to any party or parties at such rental and upon such terms as Mortgagee shall, in its sole
discretion, determine, and may collect and have the benefit of all of said Rents arising from or
accruing at any time thereafter or that may thereafter become due under any Lease.

     (d) So long as an Event of Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, Mortgagee will
not exercise any of its rights under Section 1.07(c), and Mortgagor shall receive and collect the
Rents accruing under any Lease; but after the happening and during the continuance of any Event of
Default, Mortgagee may, at its option, receive and collect all Rents and enter upon the Premises
and Improvements through its officers, agents, employees or attorneys for such purpose and for the
operation and maintenance thereof. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs each
tenant, if any, and each successor, if any, to the interest of any tenant under any Lease,
respectively, to rely upon any notice of an Event of Default sent by Mortgagee to any such tenant
or any of such tenant’s successors in interest, and thereafter to pay Rents to Mortgagee without
any obligation or right to inquire as to whether an Event of Default actually exists and even if
some notice to the contrary is received from the Mortgagor, who shall have no right or claim
against any such tenant or successor in interest for any such Rents so paid to Mortgagee. Each
tenant or any of such tenant’s successors in interest from whom Mortgagee or any officer, agent,
attorney or employee of Mortgagee shall have collected any Rents, shall be authorized to pay Rents
to Mortgagor only after such tenant or any of their successors in interest shall have received
written notice from Mortgagee (such notice to promptly be sent by Mortgagee once an Event of
Default is no longer occurring) that the Event of Default is no longer continuing, unless and until
a further notice of an Event of Default is given by Mortgagee to such tenant or any of its
successors in interest.

     (e) Mortgagee will not become a mortgagee in possession so long as it does not enter or take
actual possession of the Mortgaged Property. In addition, Mortgagee shall not be responsible or
liable for performing any of the obligations of the landlord under any Lease, for any waste by any
tenant, or others, for any dangerous or defective conditions of any of the Mortgaged Property, for
negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of any of the Mortgaged Property or any
other act or omission by any other person.

     (f) Mortgagor shall furnish to Mortgagee, within 30 days after a request by Mortgagee to do
so, a written statement containing the names of all tenants, subtenants and

 

 

concessionaires of the Premises or Improvements, the terms of any Lease, the space occupied
and the rentals and/or other amounts payable thereunder.

     SECTION
1.08. Restrictions on Transfers and Encumbrances. Mortgagor shall not
directly or indirectly sell, convey, divest, alienate, assign, lease, sublease, license, mortgage,
pledge, encumber or otherwise transfer, create, consent to or suffer the creation of any lien,
charge or other form of encumbrance upon any interest in or any part of the Mortgaged Property
(other than resulting from a condemnation), or engage in any common, cooperative, joint,
time-sharing or other congregate ownership of all or part thereof, except in each case in
accordance with and to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement; provided, that
Mortgagor may, in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with reasonable commercial
standards, enter into easement or covenant agreements that relate to and/or benefit the operation
of the Mortgaged Property and that do not materially and adversely affect the value, use or
operation of the Mortgaged Property. If any of the foregoing transfers or encumbrances results in
an event requiring prepayment of the Loans in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement,
any Net Cash Proceeds received by or on behalf of the Mortgagor in respect thereof shall constitute
trust funds to be held by the Mortgagor for the benefit of the Secured Parties and applied in
accordance with the Credit Agreement.

     SECTION
1.09. Security Agreement. This Mortgage is both a mortgage of real
property and a grant of a security interest in personal property, and shall constitute and serve as
a “Security Agreement” within the meaning of the uniform commercial code as adopted in the state
wherein the Premises are located (“UCC”). Mortgagor has hereby granted unto Mortgagee a security
interest in and to all the Mortgaged Property described in this Mortgage that is not real property,
and simultaneously with the recording of this Mortgage, Mortgagor has filed or will file UCC
financing statements, and will file continuation statements prior to the lapse thereof, at the
appropriate offices in the jurisdiction of formation of the Mortgagor to perfect the security
interest granted by this Mortgage in all the Mortgaged Property that is not real property.
Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent, for
Mortgagor and in its name, place and stead, in any and all capacities, to execute any document and
to file the same in the appropriate offices (to the extent it may lawfully do so), and to perform
each and every act and thing reasonably requisite and necessary to be done to perfect the security
interest contemplated by the preceding sentence. Mortgagee shall have all rights with respect to
the part of the Mortgaged Property that is the subject of a security interest afforded by the UCC
in addition to, but not in limitation of, the other rights afforded Mortgagee hereunder and under
the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.

     SECTION
1.10. Filing and Recording. Mortgagor will cause this Mortgage, the UCC
financing statements referred to in Section 1.09, any other security instrument creating a security
interest in or evidencing the lien hereof upon the Mortgaged Property and each UCC continuation
statement and instrument of further assurance to be filed, registered or recorded and, if
necessary, refiled, rerecorded and reregistered, in such manner and in such places as may be
required by any present or future law in order to publish notice of and fully to perfect the lien
hereof upon, and the security interest of Mortgagee in, the Mortgaged Property until this Mortgage
is terminated and released in full in accordance with Section 3.04 hereof. Mortgagor will pay all
filing, registration and recording fees, all Federal, state,

 

 

county and municipal recording, documentary or intangible taxes and other taxes, duties,
imposts, assessments and charges, and all reasonable expenses incidental to or arising out of or in
connection with the execution, delivery and recording of this Mortgage, UCC continuation statements
any mortgage supplemental hereto, any security instrument with respect to the Personal Property,
Permits, Plans and Warranties and Proceeds or any instrument of further assurance.

     SECTION
1.11. Further Assurances. Upon reasonable demand by Mortgagee, Mortgagor
will, at the cost of Mortgagor and without expense to Mortgagee, do, execute, acknowledge and
deliver all such further acts, deeds, conveyances, mortgages, assignments, notices of assignment,
transfers and assurances as Mortgagee shall from time to time reasonably require for the better
assuring, conveying, assigning, transferring and confirming unto Mortgagee the property and rights
hereby conveyed or assigned or intended now or hereafter so to be, or which Mortgagor may be or may
hereafter become bound to convey or assign to Mortgagee, or for carrying out the intention or
facilitating the performance of the terms of this Mortgage, or for filing, registering or recording
this Mortgage, and on demand, Mortgagor will also execute and deliver and hereby appoints Mortgagee
as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent, for Mortgagor and in its name, place and stead,
in any and all capacities, to execute and file to the extent it may lawfully do so, one or more
financing statements, chattel mortgages or comparable security instruments reasonably requested by
Mortgagee to evidence more effectively the lien hereof upon the Personal Property and to perform
each and every act and thing requisite and necessary to be done to accomplish the same.

     SECTION
1.12. Additions to Mortgaged Property. All right, title and interest of
Mortgagor in and to all extensions, improvements, betterments, renewals, substitutions and
replacements of, and all additions and appurtenances to, the Mortgaged Property hereafter acquired
by or released to Mortgagor or constructed, assembled or placed by Mortgagor upon the Premises or
the Improvements, and all conversions of the security constituted thereby, immediately upon such
acquisition, release, construction, assembling, placement or conversion, as the case may be, and in
each such case without any further mortgage, conveyance, assignment or other act by Mortgagor,
shall become subject to the lien and security interest of this Mortgage as fully and completely and
with the same effect as though now owned by Mortgagor and specifically described in the grant of
the Mortgaged Property above, but at any and all times Mortgagor will execute and deliver to
Mortgagee any and all such further assurances, mortgages, conveyances or assignments thereof as
Mortgagee may reasonably require for the purpose of expressly and specifically subjecting the same
to the lien and security interest of this Mortgage.

     SECTION
1.13. No Claims Against Mortgagee. Nothing contained in this Mortgage
shall constitute any consent or request by Mortgagee, express or implied, for the performance of
any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the
Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, nor as giving Mortgagor any right, power or authority to
contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials
or other property in such fashion as would permit the making of any claim against Mortgagee in
respect thereof.

 

 

     SECTION
1.14. Fixture Filing. (a) Certain portions of the Mortgaged Property are
or will become “fixtures” (as that term is defined in the UCC) on the Land, and this Mortgage, upon
being filed for record in the real estate records of the county wherein such fixtures are situated,
shall operate also as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing in accordance with the
applicable provisions of said UCC upon such portions of the Mortgaged Property that are or become
fixtures.

     (b) The real property to which the fixtures relate is described in Exhibit A attached hereto.
The record owner of the real property described in Exhibit A attached hereto is Mortgagor. The
name, type of organization and jurisdiction of organization of the debtor for purposes of this
financing statement are the name, type of organization and jurisdiction of organization of the
Mortgagor set forth in the first paragraph of this Mortgage, and the name of the secured party for
purposes of this financing statement is the name of the Mortgagee set forth in the first paragraph
of this Mortgage. The mailing address of the Mortgagor/debtor is the address of the Mortgagor set
forth in the first paragraph of this Mortgage. The mailing address of the Mortgagee/secured party
from which information concerning the security interest hereunder may be obtained is the address of
the Mortgagee set forth in the first paragraph of this Mortgage. Mortgagor’s organizational
identification number is [                    ].

ARTICLE II

Defaults and Remedies

     SECTION
2.01. Events of Default. Any Event of Default under the Credit Agreement
(as such term is defined therein) shall constitute an Event of Default under this Mortgage.

     SECTION
2.02. Demand for Payment. If an Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, then, upon written demand of Mortgagee, Mortgagor will pay to Mortgagee all amounts due
hereunder and under the Credit Agreement and the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and such
further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the out-of-pocket costs and expenses of collection,
including attorneys’ fees, disbursements and expenses incurred by Mortgagee, and Mortgagee shall be
entitled and empowered to institute an action or proceedings at law or in equity for the collection
of the sums so due and unpaid, to prosecute any such action or proceedings to judgment or final
decree, to enforce any such judgment or final decree against Mortgagor and to collect, in any
manner provided by law, all moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable.

     SECTION
2.03. Rights To Take Possession, Operate and Apply Revenues. (a) If an
Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Mortgagor shall, upon demand of Mortgagee,
forthwith surrender to Mortgagee actual possession of the Mortgaged Property and, if and to the
extent not prohibited by applicable law, Mortgagee itself, or by such officers or agents as it may
appoint, may then enter and take possession of all the Mortgaged Property without the appointment
of a receiver or an application therefor, exclude Mortgagor

 

 

and its agents and employees wholly therefrom, and have access to the books, papers and
accounts of Mortgagor.

     (b) If Mortgagor shall for any reason fail to surrender or deliver the Mortgaged Property or
any part thereof after such demand by Mortgagee, Mortgagee may to the extent not prohibited by
applicable law, obtain a judgment or decree conferring upon Mortgagee the right to immediate
possession or requiring Mortgagor to deliver immediate possession of the Mortgaged Property to
Mortgagee, to the entry of which judgment or decree Mortgagor hereby specifically consents.
Mortgagor will pay to Mortgagee, upon demand, all reasonable expenses of obtaining such judgment or
decree, including reasonable compensation to Mortgagee’s attorneys and agents with interest thereon
at the rate per annum applicable to overdue amounts under the Credit Agreement as provided in
Section 2.07 of the Credit Agreement (the “Interest Rate”); and all such expenses and compensation
shall, until paid, be secured by this Mortgage.

     (c) Upon every such entry or taking of possession, Mortgagee may, to the extent not
prohibited by applicable law, hold, store, use, operate, manage and control the Mortgaged Property,
conduct the business thereof and, from time to time, (i) make all necessary and proper maintenance,
repairs, renewals, replacements, additions, betterments and improvements thereto and thereon,
(ii) purchase or otherwise acquire additional fixtures, personalty and other property that are
reasonably necessary for the operation of the business, (iii) insure or keep the Mortgaged Property
insured, (iv) manage and operate the Mortgaged Property and exercise all the rights and powers of
Mortgagor to the same extent as Mortgagor could in its own name or otherwise with respect to the
same, or (v) enter into any and all agreements with respect to the exercise by others of any of the
powers herein granted Mortgagee, all as may from time to time be directed or determined by
Mortgagee to reasonably be in its best interest and Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee as its true
and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent, for Mortgagor and in its name, place and stead, in any and
all capacities, to perform any of the foregoing acts. Mortgagee may collect and receive all the
Rents, issues, profits and revenues from the Mortgaged Property, including those past due as well
as those accruing thereafter, and, after deducting (i) all out-of-pocket expenses of taking,
holding, managing and operating the Mortgaged Property (including compensation for the services of
all persons employed for such purposes), (ii) the out-of-pocket costs of all such maintenance,
repairs, renewals, replacements, additions, betterments, improvements, purchases and acquisitions,
(iii) the costs of insurance, (iv) such taxes, assessments and other similar charges as Mortgagee
may at its option pay, (v) other proper charges upon the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof and
(vi) the compensation, expenses and disbursements of the attorneys and agents of Mortgagee,
Mortgagee shall apply the remainder of the moneys and proceeds so received first to the payment of
the Mortgagee for the satisfaction of the Obligations, and second, if there is any surplus, to
Mortgagor, subject to the entitlement of others thereto under applicable law.

     (d) Whenever, before any sale of the Mortgaged Property under Section 2.06, all Obligations
that are then due shall have been paid and all Events of Default fully cured, Mortgagee will
surrender possession of the Mortgaged Property back to Mortgagor, its successors or assigns. The
same right of taking possession shall, however, arise again if any subsequent Event of Default
shall occur and be continuing.

 

 

     SECTION
2.04. Right To Cure Mortgagor’s Failure to Perform. Should Mortgagor fail
in the payment, performance or observance of any term, covenant or condition required by this
Mortgage or the Credit Agreement (with respect to the Mortgaged Property), Mortgagee may pay,
perform or observe the same, and all payments made or costs or expenses incurred by Mortgagee in
connection therewith shall be secured hereby and shall be, without demand, immediately repaid by
Mortgagor to Mortgagee with interest thereon at the Interest Rate. Mortgagee shall be the judge
using reasonable discretion of the necessity for any such actions and of the amounts to be paid.
Mortgagee is hereby empowered to enter and to authorize others to enter upon the Premises or the
Improvements or any part thereof for the purpose of performing or observing any such defaulted
term, covenant or condition without having any obligation to so perform or observe and without
thereby becoming liable to Mortgagor, to any person in possession holding under Mortgagor or to any
other person; provided, however, that except in the case of an emergency, Mortgagee will provide
reasonable advance notice of such entry, such entry shall be conducted in a reasonable manner and
Mortgagee shall use reasonable efforts to endeavor to minimize the amount of disturbance to the
Mortgagor’s possession of the Mortgaged Property.

     SECTION
2.05. Right to a Receiver. If an Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, Mortgagee, upon application to a court of competent jurisdiction, shall be entitled as
a matter of right to the appointment of a receiver to take possession of and to operate the
Mortgaged Property and to collect and apply the Rents. The receiver shall have all of the rights
and powers permitted under the laws of the state wherein the Mortgaged Property is located.
Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee upon demand all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including
receiver’s fees, reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements, costs and agent’s compensation
incurred pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.05; and all such expenses shall be secured by
this Mortgage and shall be, without demand, immediately repaid by Mortgagor to Mortgagee with
interest thereon at the Interest Rate.

     SECTION
2.06. Foreclosure and Sale. (a) If an Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, Mortgagee may elect to sell the Mortgaged Property or any part of the Mortgaged
Property by exercise of the power of foreclosure or of sale granted to Mortgagee by applicable law
or this Mortgage. In such case, Mortgagee may commence a civil action to foreclose this Mortgage,
or it may proceed and sell the Mortgaged Property to satisfy any Obligation. Mortgagee or an
officer appointed by a judgment of foreclosure to sell the Mortgaged Property, may sell all or such
parts of the Mortgaged Property as may be chosen by Mortgagee at the time and place of sale fixed
by it in a notice of sale, either as a whole or in separate lots, parcels or items as Mortgagee
shall deem expedient, and in such order as it may determine, at public auction to the highest
bidder. Mortgagee or an officer appointed by a judgment of foreclosure to sell the Mortgaged
Property may postpone any foreclosure or other sale of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property
by public announcement at such time and place of sale, and from time to time thereafter may
postpone such sale by public announcement or subsequently noticed sale. Without further notice,
Mortgagee or an officer appointed to sell the Mortgaged Property may make such sale at the time
fixed by the last postponement, or may, in its discretion, give a new notice of sale. Any person,
including Mortgagor or Mortgagee or any designee or affiliate thereof, may purchase at such sale.

 

 

     (b) The Mortgaged Property may be sold subject to unpaid taxes and the Liens set forth in
Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement, and, after deducting all costs, fees and out-of-pocket
expenses of Mortgagee (including costs of evidence of title in connection with the sale), Mortgagee
or an officer that makes any sale shall apply the proceeds of sale in the manner set forth in
Section 2.08.

     (c) Any foreclosure or other sale of less than the whole of the Mortgaged Property or any
defective or irregular sale made hereunder shall not exhaust the power of foreclosure or of sale
provided for herein; and subsequent sales may be made hereunder until the Obligations have been
satisfied, or the entirety of the Mortgaged Property has been sold.

     (d) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Mortgagee may instead of, or in
addition to, exercising the rights described in Section 2.06(a) above and either with or without
entry or taking possession as herein permitted, proceed by a suit or suits in law or in equity or
by any other appropriate proceeding or remedy (i) to specifically enforce payment of some or all of
the Obligations, or the performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement of this Mortgage
or any other Loan Document or any other right, or (ii) to pursue any other remedy available to
Mortgagee, all as Mortgagee shall determine most effectual for such purposes.

     SECTION
2.07. Other Remedies. (a) In case an Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, Mortgagee may also exercise, to the extent not prohibited by law, any or all of the
remedies available to a secured party under the UCC.

     (b) In connection with a sale of the Mortgaged Property or any Personal Property and the
application of the proceeds of sale as provided in Section 2.08, Mortgagee shall be entitled to
enforce payment of and to receive up to the principal amount of the Obligations, plus all other
charges, payments and costs due under this Mortgage, and to recover a deficiency judgment for any
portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Obligations remaining unpaid, with interest.

     SECTION
2.08. Application of Sale Proceeds and Rents. After any foreclosure sale
of all or any of the Mortgaged Property, Mortgagee shall receive and apply the proceeds of the sale
together with any Rents that may have been collected and any other sums that then may be held by
Mortgagee under this Mortgage as follows:

     FIRST, to the payment of all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent or the Mortgagee (in their respective capacities as such hereunder or
under any other Loan Document) in connection with such collection, sale, foreclosure or
realization or otherwise in connection with this Mortgage, any other Loan Document or any
of the Obligations, including all court costs and the fees and expenses of its agents and
legal counsel, the repayment of all advances made by the Administrative Agent and/or the
Mortgagee hereunder or under any other Loan Document on behalf of any Mortgagor and any
other out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of any right
or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document;

 

 

     SECOND, to the payment in full of Unfunded Advances/Participations (the amounts so
applied to be distributed between or among the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender
and any Issuing Bank pro rata in accordance with the amounts of Unfunded
Advances/Participations owed to them on the date of any such distribution);

     THIRD, to the payment in full of all other Obligations (the amounts so applied to be
distributed among the Secured Parties pro rata in accordance with the amounts of the
Obligations owed to them on the date of any such distribution);

     FOURTH, to the Mortgagor, its successors or assigns, or as a court of competent
jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

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

     SECTION
2.09. Mortgagor as Tenant Holding Over. If Mortgagor remains in possession
of any of the Mortgaged Property after any foreclosure sale by Mortgagee, at Mortgagee’s election
Mortgagor shall be deemed a tenant holding over and shall forthwith surrender possession to the
purchaser or purchasers at such sale or be summarily dispossessed or evicted according to
provisions of law applicable to tenants holding over.

     SECTION
2.10. Waiver of Appraisement, Valuation, Stay, Extension and Redemption
Laws. Mortgagor waives, to the extent not prohibited by law, (i) the benefit of all laws now
existing or that hereafter may be enacted (x) providing for any appraisement or valuation of any
portion of the Mortgaged Property and/or (y) in any way extending the time for the enforcement or
the collection of amounts due under any of the Obligations or creating or extending a period of
redemption from any sale made in collecting said debt or any other amounts due Mortgagee, (ii) any
right to at any time insist upon, plead, claim or take the benefit or advantage of any law now or
hereafter in force providing for any homestead exemption, stay, statute of limitations, extension
or redemption, or sale of the Mortgaged Property as separate tracts, units or estates or as a
single parcel in the event of foreclosure or notice of deficiency, and (iii) all rights of
redemption, valuation, appraisement, stay of execution, notice of election to mature or declare due
the whole of or each of the Obligations and marshaling in the event of foreclosure of this
Mortgage.

     SECTION
2.11. Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case Mortgagee shall proceed to
enforce any right, power or remedy under this Mortgage by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such
proceedings shall be discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall be determined adversely to
Mortgagee, then and in every such case Mortgagor and

 

 

Mortgagee shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights,
powers and remedies of Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceeding had been taken.

     SECTION
2.12. Suits To Protect the Mortgaged Property. Mortgagee shall have power
(a) to institute and maintain suits and proceedings to prevent any impairment of the Mortgaged
Property by any acts that may be unlawful or in violation of this Mortgage, (b) to preserve or
protect its interest in the Mortgaged Property and in the Rents arising therefrom and (c) to
restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislation or other governmental enactment,
rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of or compliance
with such enactment, rule or order would impair the security or be prejudicial to the interest of
Mortgagee hereunder.

     SECTION
2.13. Filing Proofs of Claim. In case of any receivership, insolvency,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other proceedings affecting
Mortgagor, Mortgagee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be entitled to file such proofs of
claim and other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of Mortgagee
allowed in such proceedings for the Obligations secured by this Mortgage at the date of the
institution of such proceedings and for any interest accrued, late charges and additional interest
or other amounts due or that may become due and payable hereunder after such date.

     SECTION
2.14. Possession by Mortgagee. Notwithstanding the appointment of any
receiver, liquidator or trustee of Mortgagor, any of its property or the Mortgaged Property,
Mortgagee shall be entitled, to the extent not prohibited by law, to remain in possession and
control of all parts of the Mortgaged Property now or hereafter granted under this Mortgage to
Mortgagee in accordance with the terms hereof and applicable law.

     SECTION
2.15. Waiver. (a) No delay or failure by Mortgagee to exercise any right,
power or remedy accruing upon any breach or Event of Default shall exhaust or impair any such
right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or Event of Default or
acquiescence therein; and every right, power and remedy given by this Mortgage to Mortgagee may be
exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Mortgagee. No consent or
waiver by Mortgagee to or of any breach or Event of Default by Mortgagor in the performance of the
Obligations shall be deemed or construed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or
Event of Default in the performance of the same or of any other Obligations by Mortgagor hereunder.
No failure on the part of Mortgagee to complain of any act or failure to act or to declare an
Event of Default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall constitute a waiver by
Mortgagee of its rights hereunder or impair any rights, powers or remedies consequent on any future
Event of Default by Mortgagor.

     (b) Even if Mortgagee (i) grants some forbearance or an extension of time for the payment of
any sums secured hereby, (ii) takes other or additional security for the payment of any sums
secured hereby, (iii) waives or does not exercise some right granted herein or under the Loan
Documents, (iv) releases a part of the Mortgaged Property from this Mortgage, (v) agrees to change
some of the terms, covenants, conditions or agreements of any of the Loan Documents, (vi) consents
to the filing of a map, plat or replat affecting the

 

 

Premises, (vii) consents to the granting of an easement or other right affecting the Premises
or (viii) makes or consents to an agreement subordinating Mortgagee’s lien on the Mortgaged
Property hereunder; no such act or omission shall preclude Mortgagee from exercising any other
right, power or privilege herein granted or intended to be granted in the event of any breach or
Event of Default then made or of any subsequent default; nor, except as otherwise expressly
provided in an instrument executed by Mortgagee, shall this Mortgage be altered thereby. In the
event of the sale or transfer by operation of law or otherwise of all or part of the Mortgaged
Property, Mortgagee is hereby authorized and empowered to deal with any vendee or transferee with
reference to the Mortgaged Property secured hereby, or with reference to any of the terms,
covenants, conditions or agreements hereof, as fully and to the same extent as it might deal with
the original parties hereto and without in any way releasing or discharging any liabilities,
obligations or undertakings.

     SECTION
2.16. Waiver of Trial by Jury. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, Mortgagor and Mortgagee each hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waive trial by
jury in any action, claim, suit or proceeding relating to this Mortgage and for any counterclaim
brought therein. Mortgagor hereby waives all rights to interpose any counterclaim in any suit
brought by Mortgagee hereunder and all rights to have any such suit consolidated with any separate
suit, action or proceeding.

     SECTION
2.17. Remedies Cumulative. No right, power or remedy conferred upon or
reserved to Mortgagee by this Mortgage is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power or
remedy, and each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent and in
addition to any other right, power and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law
or in equity or by statute.

Agreement.

     (b) Mortgagor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder upon the

     (c) Upon any sale or other transfer by Mortgagor of any Collateral that is permitted under
the Credit Agreement to any person that is not the Borrower or a Guarantor, or, upon the
effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the Security Interest granted hereby in any
Collateral pursuant to Section 9.09 of the Credit Agreement, the Security Interest in such
Collateral shall be automatically released; provided that, upon the consummation after the date
hereof of any Permitted Receivables Transaction or a Permitted Securitization Transaction, the
Security Interest in the Equity Interests of the Subsidiary that is the subject of such Permitted
Receivables Transaction or a Permitted Securitization Transaction, as the case may be, shall be
automatically released to the extent the pledge of the Equity Interests in such Subsidiary is
prohibited by any applicable Contractual Obligation or requirement of law.

     (d) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a), (b) or (c)
above, the Mortgagee shall promptly execute and deliver to Mortgagor, at Mortgagor’s expense, a

documents that Mortgagor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any
execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 3.04 shall be without recourse to or
representation or warranty by the Mortgagee or any Secured Party. Without limiting the provisions
of Section 7.06 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the Borrower shall reimburse the

under the Mortgage is irrevocable, with power of substitution and coupled with an interest.
Subject to the applicable provisions hereof, Mortgagee has the right to refuse to grant its
consent, approval or acceptance or to indicate its satisfaction, in its sole discretion, whenever
such consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction is required hereunder.

     SECTION 3.06. Multisite Real Estate Transaction. Mortgagor acknowledges that this
Mortgage is one of a number of Other Mortgages and Security Documents that secure the Obligations.
Mortgagor agrees that the lien of this Mortgage shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not
in any manner be affected or impaired by any acts or omissions whatsoever of Mortgagee, and without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the lien hereof shall not be impaired by any acceptance
by the Mortgagee of any security for or guarantees of any of the Obligations hereby secured, or by
any failure, neglect or omission on the part of Mortgagee to realize upon or protect any Obligation
or indebtedness hereby secured or any collateral security therefor including the Other Mortgages
and other Security Documents. The lien hereof shall not in any manner be impaired or affected by
any release (except as to the property released), sale, pledge, surrender, compromise, settlement,
renewal, extension, indulgence, alteration, changing, modification or disposition of any of the
Obligations secured or of any of the collateral security therefor, including the Other Mortgages
and other Security Documents or of any guarantee thereof, and Mortgagee may at its discretion
foreclose, exercise any power of sale, or exercise any other remedy available to it under any or
all of the Other Mortgages and other Security Documents without first exercising or enforcing any
of its rights and remedies hereunder. Such exercise of Mortgagee’s rights and remedies under any
or all of the Other Mortgages and other Security Documents shall not in any manner impair the
indebtedness hereby secured or the lien of this Mortgage and any exercise of the rights or remedies
of Mortgagee hereunder shall not impair the lien of any of the Other Mortgages and other Security
Documents or any of Mortgagee’s rights and remedies thereunder. Mortgagor specifically consents
and agrees that Mortgagee may exercise its rights and remedies hereunder and under the Other
Mortgages and other Security Documents separately or concurrently and in any order that it may deem
appropriate and waives any rights of subrogation.

     SECTION 3.07. No Oral Modification. This Mortgage may not be changed or terminated
orally. Any agreement made by Mortgagor and Mortgagee after the date of this Mortgage relating to
this Mortgage shall be superior to the rights of the holder of any intervening or subordinate
Mortgage, lien or encumbrance.
