(a)    Letters of Credit.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation, Section 2.15., each Issuing Bank, on behalf of the Lenders, agrees to issue for the account of the Borrower during the period from and including the Effective Date to, but excluding, the date thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Termination Date, one or more standby letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) up to a maximum aggregate Stated Amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $50,000,000 as such amount may be reduced from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof (the “L/C Commitment Amount”); provided, that an Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, the aggregate Stated Amount of the outstanding Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank would exceed the lesser of (i) 50% of the L/C Commitment Amount and (ii) the Revolving Commitment of such Issuing Bank in its capacity as a Lender.

(b)    Terms of Letters of Credit.  At the time of issuance, the amount, form, terms and conditions of each Letter of Credit, and of any drafts or acceptances thereunder, shall be subject to approval by the applicable Issuing Bank and the Borrower (which approval, in the case of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may (i) the expiration date of any Letter of Credit extend beyond the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Termination Date, or (ii) any Letter of Credit have an initial duration in excess of one year; provided, however, a Letter of Credit may contain a provision providing for the automatic extension of the expiration date in the absence of a notice of non-renewal from the applicable Issuing Bank but in no event shall any such provision permit the extension of the expiration date of such Letter of Credit beyond the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Termination Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Letter of Credit may, as a result of its express terms or as the result of the effect of an automatic extension provision, have an expiration date of not more than one year beyond the Revolving Termination Date (any such Letter of Credit being referred to as an “Extended Letter of Credit”), so long as the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the applicable Issuing Bank and the Lenders no later than 30 days prior to the Revolving Termination Date, Cash Collateral for such Letter of Credit for deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account in an amount equal to the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit; provided, that the obligations of the Borrower under this Section in respect of such Extended Letters of Credit shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall remain in effect until no such Extended Letters of Credit remain outstanding.  If the Borrower fails to provide Cash Collateral with respect to any Extended Letter of Credit by the date 30 days prior to the Revolving Termination Date, such failure shall be treated as a drawing under such Extended Letter of Credit (in an amount equal to the maximum Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit), which shall be reimbursed (or participations therein funded) by the Revolving Lenders in accordance with the immediately following subsections (i) and (j), with the proceeds being utilized to provide Cash Collateral for such Letter of Credit.  The initial Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit shall be at least $50,000 (or such lesser amount as may be acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower). 

(c)    Requests for Issuance of Letters of Credit.  The Borrower shall give the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice which shall specify the information to be included in a written notice and shall be promptly confirmed in writing by the Borrower pursuant to a written notice sent to the Administrative Agent on the same day of the giving of such telephonic notice)  at least five (5) Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance of a Letter of Credit, such notice to describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Letter of Credit and the nature of the transactions or obligations proposed to be supported by such Letter of Credit, and in any event shall set forth with respect to such Letter of Credit the proposed (i) initial Stated Amount, (ii) beneficiary, 

and (iii) expiration date. The Borrower shall also execute and deliver such customary applications and agreements for standby letters of credit, and other forms as requested from time to time by the applicable Issuing Bank.  Provided the Borrower has given the notice prescribed by the first sentence of this subsection and delivered such applications and agreements referred to in the preceding sentence, subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the satisfaction of any applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 5.2., the applicable Issuing Bank shall issue the requested Letter of Credit on the requested date of issuance for the benefit of the stipulated beneficiary but in no event prior to the date five (5) Business Days following the date after which such Issuing Bank has received all of the items required to be delivered to it under this subsection.  An Issuing Bank shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exceed any limits imposed by, any Applicable Law.  References herein to “issue” and derivations thereof with respect to Letters of Credit shall also include extensions or modifications of any outstanding Letters of Credit, unless the context otherwise requires.  Upon the written request of the Borrower, the applicable Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Borrower a copy of each Letter of Credit issued by it within a reasonable time after the date of issuance thereof.  To the extent any term of a Letter of Credit Document is inconsistent with a term of any Loan Document, the term of such Loan Document shall control.

(d)    Reimbursement Obligations.  Upon receipt by an Issuing Bank from the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank of any demand for payment under such Letter of Credit and such Issuing Bank’s determination that such demand for payment complies with the requirements of such Letter of Credit, such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the amount to be paid by such Issuing Bank as a result of such demand and the date on which payment is to be made by such Issuing Bank to such beneficiary in respect of such demand; provided, however, that an Issuing Bank’s failure to give, or delay in giving, such notice shall not discharge the Borrower in any respect from the applicable Reimbursement Obligation.  The Borrower hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to pay and reimburse each Issuing Bank for the amount of each demand for payment under each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank at or prior to the date on which payment is to be made by such Issuing Bank to the beneficiary thereunder, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind (other than notice of such payment as expressly provided in this subsection).  Upon receipt by an Issuing Bank of any payment in respect of any Reimbursement Obligation, such Issuing Bank shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender that has acquired a participation therein under the second sentence of the immediately following subsection (i) such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of such payment.

(e)    Manner of Reimbursement.  Upon its receipt of a notice referred to in the immediately preceding subsection (d), the Borrower shall advise the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank whether or not the Borrower intends to borrow hereunder to finance its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank for the amount of the related demand for payment and, if it does, the Borrower shall submit a timely request for such borrowing as provided in the applicable provisions of this Agreement.  If the Borrower fails to so advise the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, or if the Borrower fails to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit by the date of such payment, the failure of which the applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, then (i) if the applicable conditions contained in Article V. would permit the making of Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a borrowing of Revolving Loans (which shall be Base Rate Loans) in an amount equal to the unpaid Reimbursement Obligation and the Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of the amount of the Revolving Loan to be made available to the Administrative Agent not 

later than 10:00 a.m. Pacific time and (ii) if such conditions would not permit the making of Revolving Loans, the provisions of subsection (j) of this Section shall apply.  The limitations set forth in the second sentence of Section 2.1.(a) shall not apply to any borrowing of Base Rate Loans under this subsection.

(f)    Effect of Letters of Credit on Revolving Commitments.  Upon the issuance by an Issuing Bank of a Letter of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, the Revolving Commitment of each Lender shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to the product of (i) such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage and (ii) the sum of (A) the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit plus (B) any related Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding.

(g)    Issuing Banks’ Duties Regarding Letters of Credit; Unconditional Nature of Reimbursement Obligations.  In examining documents presented in connection with drawings under Letters of Credit and making payments under Letters of Credit issued by an Issuing Bank against such documents, such Issuing Bank shall only be required to use the same standard of care as it uses in connection with examining documents presented in connection with drawings under letters of credit in which it has not sold participations and making payments under such letters of credit.  The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, none of the Issuing Banks, the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders shall be responsible for, and the Borrower’s obligations in respect of Letters of Credit shall not be affected in any manner by, (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effects of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of or any drawing honored under any Letter of Credit even if such document should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit, or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, facsimile, electronic mail, telecopy or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Banks, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders.  None of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any Issuing Bank’s or Administrative Agent’s rights or powers hereunder.  Any action taken or omitted to be taken by an Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment), shall not create against such Issuing Bank any liability to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender.  In this connection, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any drawing made under any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, and to repay any Revolving Loan made pursuant to the second sentence of the immediately preceding subsection (e), shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any other applicable Letter of Credit Document under all circumstances whatsoever, including without limitation, the following circumstances: (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit Document or any term or provisions therein; (B) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the Letter of Credit Documents; (C) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which 

the Borrower may have at any time against such Issuing Bank, any other Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or in the Letter of Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction; (D) any breach of contract or dispute between the Borrower, such Issuing Bank, any other Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person; (E) any demand, statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein or made in connection therewith being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (F) any non‐application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; (G) payment by such Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate which does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and (H) any other act, omission to act, delay or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable defense to or discharge of the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section or Section 12.10., but not in limitation of the Borrower’s unconditional obligation to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any drawing made under a Letter of Credit as provided in this Section and to repay any Revolving Loan made pursuant to the second sentence of the immediately preceding subsection (e), the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Bank or any Lender in respect of any liability incurred by the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Bank or such Lender arising solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender in respect of a Letter of Credit as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment.  Except as otherwise provided in this Section, nothing in this Section shall affect any rights the Borrower may have with respect to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Bank or any Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit.

(h)    Amendments, Etc.  The issuance by an Issuing Bank of any amendment, supplement or other modification to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank shall be subject to the same conditions applicable under this Agreement to the issuance of new Letters of Credit (including, without limitation, that the request therefor be made through the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent), and no such amendment, supplement or other modification shall be issued unless either (i) the respective Letter of Credit affected thereby would have complied with such conditions had it originally been issued hereunder in such amended, supplemented or modified form or (ii) the Administrative Agent and Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders if required by Section 12.7.) shall have consented thereto.  In connection with any such amendment, supplement or other modification, the Borrower shall pay the fees, if any, payable under the last sentence of Section 3.5.(c).

(i)    Lenders’ Participation in Letters of Credit.  Immediately upon (i) the Effective Date with respect to all Existing Letters of Credit and (ii) the date of issuance by an Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to have absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from the applicable Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the liability of such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit and each Lender thereby shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and shall be unconditionally obligated to such Issuing Bank to pay and discharge when due, such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of such Issuing Bank’s liability under such Letter of Credit.  In addition, upon the making of each payment by a Lender to the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank in respect of any Letter of Credit issued by it pursuant to the immediately following subsection (j), such Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of 

such Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or such Lender, acquire (i) a participation in an amount equal to such payment in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to such Issuing Bank by the Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit and (ii) a participation in a percentage equal to such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage in any interest or other amounts payable by the Borrower in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation (other than the Fees payable to such Issuing Bank pursuant to the second and the last sentences of Section 3.5.(c)).

(j)    Payment Obligation of Lenders.  Each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Issuing Bank, on demand in immediately available funds in Dollars the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of each drawing paid by such Issuing Bank under each Letter of Credit issued by it to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to the immediately preceding subsection (d); provided, however, that with respect to any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the maximum amount that any Lender shall be required to fund, whether as a Revolving Loan or as a participation, shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of such drawing except as otherwise provided in Section 3.9.(d).  If the notice referenced in the second sentence of Section 2.3.(e) is received by a Lender not later than 9:00 a.m. Pacific time, then such Lender shall make such payment available to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. Pacific time on the date of demand therefor; otherwise, such payment shall be made available to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. Pacific time on the next succeeding Business Day.  Each Lender’s obligation to make such payments to the Administrative Agent under this subsection, and the Administrative Agent’s right to receive the same for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional and shall not be affected in any way by any circumstance whatsoever, including without limitation, (i) the failure of any other Lender to make its payment under this subsection, (ii) the financial condition of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, (iii) the existence of any Default or Event of Default, including any Event of Default described in Section 10.1.(e) or (f), (iv) the termination of the Revolving Commitments or (v) the delivery of Cash Collateral in respect of any Extended Letter of Credit.  Each such payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or deduction whatsoever.  

(k)    Information to Lenders.  Promptly following any change in Letters of Credit outstanding, the applicable Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, who shall promptly deliver the same to each Lender and the Borrower, a notice describing the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank outstanding at such time.  Upon the request of any Lender from time to time, an Issuing Bank shall deliver any other information reasonably requested by such Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit then outstanding.  Other than as set forth in this subsection, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to notify the Lenders regarding the issuance or other matters regarding Letters of Credit issued hereunder.  The failure of any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent to perform its requirements under this subsection shall not relieve any Lender from its obligations under the immediately preceding subsection (j).

(l)    Existing Letters of Credit.  The parties agree that each Existing Letter of Credit shall, from and after the Effective Date, be deemed to be a Letter of Credit issued under this Agreement and shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(m)    Extended Letters of Credit.  Each Lender confirms that its obligations under the immediately preceding subsections (i) and (j) shall be reinstated in full and apply if the delivery of any Cash Collateral in respect of an Extended Letter of Credit is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a 

trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise.

If at any time the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans outstanding at such time exceeds the Swingline Availability at such time, the Borrower shall immediately pay the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender the amount of such excess.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans hereunder.  The borrowing of a Swingline Loan shall not constitute usage of any Lender’s Revolving Commitment for purposes of calculation of the fee payable under Section 3.5.(b).

When all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash and no Letters of Credit remain outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, the balances remaining in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account.

(ii)    The Credit Agreement is further amended by adding “(a)  Generally.” before the first sentence of Section 10.9. thereof and adding the following Section 10.9.(b) immediately after 10.9.(a): 

(b)    Enforcement by Administrative Agent.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Article X. for the benefit of all the Lenders and the Issuing Banks; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to their benefit (solely in their capacity as an Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be) hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, (iii) any Specified Derivatives Provider from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit under any Specified Derivatives Contract, (iv) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 12.4. (subject to the terms of Section 3.3.), or (v) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (x) the Requisite Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article X. and (y) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (ii), (iv) and (v) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 3.3., any Lender may, with the consent of the Requisite Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Requisite Lenders.

(jj)    The Credit Agreement is further amended by restating Section 11.3. thereof in its entirety as follows:

Section 11.3. Approvals of Lenders.

All communications from the Administrative Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender’s determination, consent or approval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval or consent is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, and (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved.  Unless a Lender shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent that it specifically objects to the requested determination, consent or approval (together with a reasonable written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within ten (10) Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the express terms of the Loan Documents) of receipt of such communication, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved such requested determination, consent or approval.  The provisions of this Section shall not apply to any amendment, waiver or consent regarding any of the matters described in Section 12.7.(c).  

(kk)    The Credit Agreement is further amended by restating Section 11.8. thereof in its entirety as follows:

Section 11.8.  Successor Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent may (i) be removed as administrative agent by all of the Lenders (other than the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent) and the Borrower upon 30 days' prior written notice if the Administrative Agent (A) is found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment to have committed gross negligence or willful misconduct in the course of performing its duties hereunder or (B) has become or is insolvent or has become the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, or has had a receiver, conservator, trustee or custodian appointed for it, or has taken any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of or acquiescence in any such proceeding or appointment (ii) resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower.  Upon any such removal or resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment shall, provided no Event of Default exists, be subject to the Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that the Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Lender and any of its Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent).  If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after (i) the Lenders’ giving of notice of removal or (ii) the resigning Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the removed or resigning Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be an Eligible Assignee which, provided no Event of Default exists, shall be approved by the Borrower (such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no Lender has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made to each Lender and the Issuing Banks directly until such time as a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed as provided for above 

in this Section; provided, further that such Lenders and the Issuing Banks so acting directly shall be and be deemed to be protected by all indemnities and other provisions herein for the benefit and protection of the Administrative Agent as if each such Lender or Issuing Bank were itself the Administrative Agent.   Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent such successor Administrative Agent, or, if no such successor has been appointed, the Requisite Lenders, shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the removed or resigning Administrative Agent.  Any resignation by an Administrative Agent shall also constitute the resignation as an Issuing Bank and as the Swingline Lender by the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent (the “Resigning Lender”).  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder (i) the Resigning Lender shall be discharged from all duties and obligations of an Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for all Letters of Credit issued by the Resigning Lender as Issuing Bank outstanding at the time of such succession (which letters of credit issued in substitutions shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder) or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Resigning Lender to effectively assume the obligations of the Resigning Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit.  After any Administrative Agent’s removal or resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XI. shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, subject to the Borrower’s approval, the Administrative Agent may assign its rights and duties under the Loan Documents to any of its Affiliates reasonably acceptable to the Borrower by giving the Borrower and each Lender prior written notice.

(ll)    The Credit Agreement is further amended by restating clause (b) of Section 12.5. thereof in its entirety as follows:

(b)    THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT COMMENCE ANY ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR DESCRIPTION, WHETHER IN LAW OR EQUITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT OR OTHERWISE, AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER, THE ISSUING BANK, OR ANY RELATED PARTY OF THE FOREGOING IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATING HERETO OR THERETO, IN ANY FORUM OTHER THAN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY, AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION 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 OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR THE ISSUING BANK MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.  EACH PARTY FURTHER WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE 

VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM AND EACH AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME.

(mm)    The Credit Agreement is further amended by restating clause (b) of Section 12.11. thereof in its entirety as follows:

(b) all Letters of Credit have terminated or expired or been canceled (other than Extended Letters of Credit in respect of which the Borrower has satisfied the requirements to provide Cash Collateral as required in Section 2.3.(b)),

(nn)    The Credit Agreement is further amended by adding the following Section 12.22. immediately after Section 12.21. thereof:

Section 12.22.  Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a)    the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(b)    the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i)    a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
    
(ii)    a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii)    the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

(oo)    The Credit Agreement is further amended by deleting Schedule I attached thereto in its entirety and substituting in lieu thereof Schedule I attached hereto.

(pp)    The Credit Agreement is further amended by restating Section 17.(b) of Exhibit D attached thereto as follows:

 (b)    EACH GUARANTOR IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT COMMENCE ANY ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR DESCRIPTION, WHETHER IN LAW OR EQUITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT OR OTHERWISE, AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY OTHER GUARANTIED PARTY, OR ANY RELATED PARTY OF THE FOREGOING IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATING HERETO OR THERETO, IN ANY 

FORUM OTHER THAN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY, AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION 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 GUARANTY OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OTHER GUARANTIED PARTY MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST ANY GUARANTOR OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.  EACH PARTY FURTHER WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM, AND EACH AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME.

(qq)    The Credit Agreement is further amended by deleting Exhibit K attached thereto in its entirety and substituting in lieu thereof Exhibit K attached hereto.

to execute and deliver this Amendment and any other agreements or documents executed by the Borrower in connection with this Amendment (collectively, the “Amendment Documents”);

(g)    copies certified by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary (or other individual performing similar functions) of the Borrower of (A) the by-laws of the Borrower and (B) all trust or other necessary action taken by the Borrower to authorize the execution and delivery of the Amendment Documents and performance of the Amendment Documents and the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment;

Section 3.  Allocations.  The Administrative Agent, the Borrower and each Lender agree that upon the effectiveness of this Amendment (the date of such effectiveness, the “Amendment Effective Date”), the outstanding Revolving Loans and the participation interests of the Lenders in any outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall be allocated among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages calculated based on the Revolving Commitments of the Lenders set forth on Schedule I attached hereto (the “Post-Amendment Commitment Percentage”).  To effect such allocations, each Lender whose Post-Amendment Commitment Percentage exceeds the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Amendment and any Lender providing a new Commitment shall make a Revolving Loan in such amount as is necessary so that the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans held by such Lender shall equal such Lender’s Post-Amendment Commitment Percentage of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans as of the Amendment Effective Date.  The Administrative Agent shall make such amounts of the proceeds of such Revolving Loans available (a) to each Lender whose Post-Amendment Commitment Percentage is less than the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Amendment as is necessary so that the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans held by such Lender shall equal such 

Lender’s Post-Amendment Commitment Percentage of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans as of the Amendment Effective Date and (b) to the Exiting Lenders (as defined below) as is necessary to repay in full the Revolving Loans owing to such Exiting Lenders.  The parties hereto confirm that the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans immediately prior to the Amendment Effective Date is equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans immediately after giving effect to the Amendment.  Except for any Revolving Notes to be provided to the Lenders in the principal amount of their respective Revolving Commitments, no other documents, instruments or fees (other than fees set forth in Section 2(k) above) shall be, or shall be required to be, executed or paid in connection with such allocations (all of which are hereby waived, as necessary).  

Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as a new Lender under the Credit Agreement on the Amendment Effective Date, hereby agrees to provide a new Revolving Commitment in the amount set forth on Schedule I attached hereto.  On the Amendment Effective Date, Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch agrees to become and shall be deemed a Lender for all purposes of the Credit Agreement, and each reference to the Lenders in the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to include Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch.  Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch hereby appoints Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as the Administrative Agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms thereof.

On the Amendment Effective Date, the Revolving Commitments of each of Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, Compass Bank, Capital One, N.A. and Royal Bank of Canada (each, an “Exiting Lender”) shall be terminated, all outstanding amounts due under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the Exiting Lenders on the Amendment Effective Date shall be paid in full, and each Exiting Lender shall cease to be a Lender under the Credit Agreement.

The Administrative Agent, the Borrower and each Lender confirms the amount of each such Lender’s Revolving Commitment as set forth on Schedule I attached hereto.

Section 4.  Representations.  The Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that:

(a)    Authorization of Loan Documents and Borrowings.  The Borrower has the right and power, and has taken all necessary action to authorize it, to borrow and obtain other extensions of credit under the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment.

(b)    Binding Effect.  This Amendment and the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment constitute valid and binding agreements of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their terms.

(c)    No Default.  No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as of the date hereof nor will exist immediately after giving effect to this Amendment.

(d)    No Material Adverse Change.  Since December 31, 2015, there has not been any material adverse condition or material adverse change in or affecting, nor has any circumstance or condition occurred that could reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse change in, or have a material adverse effect 

on, the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition or results of operations of the Borrower and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

The Borrower hereby repeats and reaffirms all representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment and the other Loan Documents on and as of the date hereof with the same force and effect as if such representations and warranties were set forth in this Amendment in full and such representations and warranties are true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty is true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date hereof immediately after giving effect to this Amendment except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties were true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty was true and correct in all respects) on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances not prohibited thereunder.

Section 6.  Certain References.  Each reference to the Credit Agreement in any of the Loan Documents shall be deemed to be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment.  This Amendment is a Loan Document.

Section 7.  Costs and Expenses.  The Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Amendment and the other agreements and documents executed and delivered in connection herewith.

Section 8.  Benefits.  This Amendment shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 9.  GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

Section 10.  Effect; Ratification.  Except as expressly herein amended, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents remain in full force and effect.  The amendments contained herein shall be deemed to have prospective application only.  The Credit Agreement is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.

Section 11.  Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and shall be binding upon all parties, their successors and assigns.

Section 13.  Additional Arrangers.  The parties hereby acknowledge the appointment of each of Regions Capital Markets, a division of Regions Bank, SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc. and U.S. Bank National Association as a joint lead arranger in respect of the arrangement and syndication of the Revolving Commitments made available on the Second Amendment Date.

Finality of Disbursement Requests. Disbursement Requests will be final and will not be subject to stop payment or recall; provided that Administrative Agent

(t)The Credit Agreement is further amended by adding “(a)  Generally.” before the first sentence of Section 10.7. thereof and adding the following Section 10.7.(b) immediately after 10.7.(a):

(b)    Enforcement by Administrative Agent.

(subject to the terms of Section 3.3.), or (iv) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (x) the Requisite Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article X. and (y) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (iii) and (iv) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 3.3., any Lender may, with the consent of the Requisite Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Requisite Lenders.

(u)The Credit Agreement is further amended by restating Section 11.3. thereof in its entirety as follows:

Section 11.3. Approvals of Lenders.

All communications from the Administrative Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender’s determination, consent or approval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval or consent is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, and (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved.  Unless a Lender shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent that it specifically objects to the requested determination, consent or approval (together with a reasonable written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within ten (10) Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the express terms of the Loan Documents) of receipt of such communication, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved such requested determination, consent or approval.  The provisions of this Section shall not apply to any amendment, waiver or consent regarding any of the matters described in Section 12.7.(c).

(v)The Credit Agreement is further amended by restating Section 11.8. thereof in its entirety as follows:

Section 11.8.  Successor Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent may (i) be removed as administrative agent by all of the Lenders (other than the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent) and the Borrower upon 

30 days’ prior written notice if the Administrative Agent (A) is found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment to have committed gross negligence or willful misconduct in the course of performing its duties hereunder or (B) has become or is insolvent or has become the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, or has had a receiver, conservator, trustee or custodian appointed for it, or has taken any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of or acquiescence in any such proceeding or appointment and (ii) resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower.  Upon any such removal or resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment shall, provided no Event of Default exists, be subject to the Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that the Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Lender and any of its Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent).  If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after (i) the Lenders’ giving of notice of removal or (ii) the resigning Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the removed or resigning Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be an Eligible Assignee which, provided no Event of Default exists, shall be approved by the Borrower (such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no Lender has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made to each Lender directly until such time as a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed as provided for above in this Section; provided, further that such Lenders so acting directly shall be and be deemed to be protected by all indemnities and other provisions herein for the benefit and protection of the Administrative Agent as if each such Lender were itself the Administrative Agent.   Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent such successor Administrative Agent, or, if no such successor has been appointed, the Requisite Lenders, shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the removed or resigning Administrative Agent.  After any Administrative Agent’s removal or resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XI. shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, subject to the Borrower’s approval, the Administrative Agent may assign its rights and duties under the Loan Documents to any of its Affiliates reasonably acceptable to the Borrower by giving the Borrower and each Lender prior written notice.

(w)The Credit Agreement is further amended by adding the following Section 12.22. immediately after Section 12.21. thereof:

Section 12.22.  Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a)    the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(b)    the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i)    a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
    
(ii)    a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii)    the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

Section 2.  Conditions Precedent.  The effectiveness of this Amendment is subject to receipt by the Administrative Agent of each of the following in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent:

(a)    a counterpart of this Amendment duly executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each of the Requisite Lenders;

(c)    evidence that all fees, expenses and reimbursement amounts due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers, including without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Administrative Agent, have been paid; and

(d)    such other documents, agreements and instruments as the Administrative Agent, or any Lender through the Administrative Agent, may reasonably request.

This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by the duly authorized officers of the Borrower, and each of this Amendment and the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its respective terms, except as the same may be limited 

by bankruptcy, insolvency, and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies for the enforcement of certain obligations (other than the payment of principal) contained herein or therein and as may be limited by equitable principles generally.  

(b)    No Default.  No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as of the date hereof nor will exist immediately after giving effect to this Amendment.

Section 4.  Reaffirmation of Representations.  The Borrower hereby repeats and reaffirms all representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment and the other Loan Documents on and as of the date hereof with the same force and effect as if such representations and warranties were set forth in this Amendment in full and such representations and warranties are true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty is true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date hereof immediately after giving effect to this Amendment except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties were true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty was true and correct in all respects) on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances not prohibited thereunder.

Section 5.  Certain References.  Each reference to the Credit Agreement in any of the Loan Documents shall be deemed to be a reference to the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment.  This Amendment is a Loan Document.
