Any certificate or other writing required hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be certified by a Responsible Officer of any Person shall be deemed to be executed and delivered by such Responsible Officer solely in such individual’s capacity as a Responsible Officer of such Person and not in such Responsible Officer’s individual capacity.
Section 1.4.Rounding.
Any financial ratios required to be maintained pursuant to this Agreement (or required to be satisfied in order for a specific action to be permitted under this Agreement) shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a rounding up if there is no nearest number).

ARTICLE II 
AMOUNT AND TERMS OF THE COMMITMENTS
Section 2.1.Revolving Loans.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make Revolving Loans, ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitments, to the Borrowers, from time to time during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time that will not result (after giving effect to any repayment of L/C Obligations with the proceeds of such Revolving Loan) in (a) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Commitment or (b) the sum of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures of all Lenders exceeding the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount.  During the Availability Period, the Borrowers shall be entitled to borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; provided that the Borrowers may not borrow or reborrow should there exist a Default or Event of Default.
Section 2.2.Swing Loans.
(a)Generally.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, as part of the Revolving Commitment, the Swing Line Lender shall make loans in Dollars to the Borrowers under the Swing Line (individually a “Swing Loan” and collectively the “Swing Loans”) which shall not in the aggregate at any time outstanding exceed the Swing Line Sublimit; provided, however, the sum of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders at any time outstanding shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount in effect at such time.  The Swing Loans may be availed of by the Borrowers from time to time and borrowings thereunder may be repaid and used again during the period ending on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date; provided that each Swing Loan must be repaid on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.  Each Swing Loan shall be in a minimum amount of $250,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $100,000.   Notwithstanding anything herein to 
-37-

the contrary, the Swing Line Lender shall be under no obligation to make any Swing Loan if any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder unless the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender has provided Cash Collateral in compliance with Section 2.25 sufficient to eliminate the Swing Line Lender’s risk with respect to such Defaulting Lender.
(b)Interest on Swing Loans.  Each Swing Loan shall bear interest until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to, at the option of the Borrowers, (i) the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans as from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days elapsed) or (ii) the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed).  Interest on each Swing Loan shall be due and payable prior to such maturity on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto.
(c)Requests for Swing Loans.  The Borrowers shall give the Administrative Agent prior notice (which may be written or oral), no later than 10:00 a.m. (Cincinnati time) on the date upon which the Borrowers request that any Swing Loan be made, of the amount and date of such Swing Loan, and the Interest Period requested therefor.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the Swing Line Lender of any such notice received from the Borrowers.  Within 30 minutes after receiving such notice, the Swing Line Lender shall in its discretion quote an interest rate to the Borrowers at which the Swing Line Lender would be willing to make such Swing Loan available to the Borrowers for the Interest Period so requested (the rate so quoted for a given Interest Period being herein referred to as “Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate”).  The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the interest rate quote is given for immediate and irrevocable acceptance.  If the Borrowers do not so immediately accept the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate for the full amount requested by the Borrowers for such Swing Loan, the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate shall be deemed immediately withdrawn and such Swing Loan shall bear interest at the rate per annum determined by adding the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans to the Base Rate as from time to time in effect.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the proceeds of such Swing Loan shall be made available to the Borrowers on the date so requested at the offices of the Swing Line Lender in Cincinnati, Ohio.  Anything contained in the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding (i) the obligation of the Swing Line Lender to make Swing Loans shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and (ii) the Swing Line Lender shall not be obligated to make more than one Swing Loan during any one day.  
(d)Refunding of Swing Loans.  In its sole and absolute discretion, the Swing Line Lender may at any time, on behalf of the Borrowers (which the Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize the Swing Line Lender to act on their behalf for such purpose) and with notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, request each Lender to make a Revolving Loan in the form of a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of the Swing Loans outstanding on the date such notice is given.  Unless an Event of Default described in Section 9.1(g) or 9.1(h) exists with respect to either Borrower, regardless of the existence of any other Event of Default, each Lender shall make the proceeds of its requested Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, at the 
-38-

Administrative Agent’s principal office in Cincinnati, Ohio, before 12:00 noon (Cincinnati time) on the Business Day following the day such notice is given.  The proceeds of such Borrowing of Revolving Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the outstanding Swing Loans.
(e)Participations.  If any Lender refuses or otherwise fails to make a Revolving Loan when requested by the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.2(d) above (because an Event of Default described in Section 9.1(g) or 9.1(h) exists with respect to either Borrower or otherwise), such Lender will, by the time and in the manner such Revolving Loan was to have been funded to the Administrative Agent, purchase from the Swing Line Lender an undivided participating interest in the outstanding Swing Loans in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the aggregate principal amount of Swing Loans that were to have been repaid with such Revolving Loans; provided that the foregoing purchases shall be deemed made hereunder without any further action by such Lender, the Swing Line Lender or the Administrative Agent.  Each Lender that so purchases a participation in a Swing Loan shall thereafter be entitled to receive its Pro Rata Share of each payment of principal received on the Swing Loan and of interest received thereon accruing from the date such Lender funded to the Swing Line Lender its participation in such Loan.  The several obligations of the Lenders under this Section shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances whatsoever and shall not be subject to any set‐off, counterclaim or defense to payment which any Lender may have or have had against either Borrower, any other Lender or any other Person whatsoever.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such obligations shall not be affected by any Default or Event of Default or by any reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitment of any Lender, and each payment made by a Lender under this Section shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.
Section 2.3.[RESERVED].
Section 2.4.Procedure for Borrowings.
(a)Notice to the Administrative Agent.    The Borrowers shall give the Administrative Agent notice of each Borrowing prior to 11:00 a.m. (Cincinnati time): (i) at least 3 Business Days before the date on which the Borrowers request the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans and (ii) on the date the Borrowers request the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans; provided, that the request for a Borrowing on the Restatement Effective Date may, at the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be given later than the times specified herein. The Loans included in each Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the type of rate specified in such notice. Thereafter, the Borrowers may from time to time elect to change or continue the type of interest rate borne by each Borrowing or, subject to Section 2.6, a portion thereof, as follows:  (i) if such Borrowing is of LIBOR Rate Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrowers may continue part or all of such Borrowing as LIBOR Rate Loans or convert part or all of such Borrowing into Base Rate Loans or (ii) if such Borrowing is of Base Rate Loans, on any Business Day, the Borrowers may convert all or part of such Borrowing into LIBOR Rate Loans for an Interest Period or Interest Periods specified by the Borrowers.  The Borrowers shall give all such notices requesting the advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing to the Administrative Agent by email (with a pdf 
-39-

copy of the applicable fully‐executed notice), telephone, or telecopy (which notice shall be irrevocable once given and, if by telephone, shall be promptly confirmed in writing in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-1 (“Notice of Borrowing”) or Exhibit F-2 (“Notice of Continuation/Conversion”), as applicable, or in such other form acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Notice of the continuation of a Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans for an additional Interest Period or of the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Rate Loans must be given by no later than 11:00 a.m. (Cincinnati time) at least 3 Business Days before the date of the requested continuation or conversion.  Each notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify: (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Borrowing to be advanced, continued or converted, (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the type of Loans to comprise such new, continued or converted Borrowing, and (iv) if such Borrowing is to be comprised of LIBOR Rate Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto. A notice received after 11:00 a.m. (Cincinnati time)  shall be deemed received on the next Business Day.  Promptly following the receipt of a Notice of Borrowing herewith, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing of Revolving Loans.  The Borrowers agree that the Administrative Agent may rely on any such email, telephonic or telecopy notice given by any person the Administrative Agent in good faith believes is a Responsible Officer without the necessity of independent investigation (the Borrowers hereby indemnify the Administrative Agent from any liability or loss ensuing from such reliance) and, in the event any such notice by telephone conflicts with any written confirmation, such telephonic notice shall govern if the Administrative Agent has acted in reliance thereon.
(b)Borrowers’ Failure to Notify; Automatic Continuations and Conversions; Automatic Extensions of Loan if Reimbursement Obligations Not Repaid.  If the Borrowers fail to give proper notice of the continuation or conversion of any outstanding Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans before the last day of its then current Interest Period within the period required by Section 2.4(a) or, whether or not such notice has been given, one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 4.1 for the continuation or conversion of a Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans would not be satisfied, and such Borrowing is not prepaid in accordance with Section 2.10, such Borrowing shall automatically be converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans.  In the event the Borrowers fail to give notice pursuant to Section 2.4(a) of a Borrowing equal to the amount of a Reimbursement Obligation and has not notified the Administrative Agent by 1:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time) on the day such Reimbursement Obligation becomes due that it intends to repay such Reimbursement Obligation through funds not borrowed under this Agreement, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Commitment (or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, under the Swing Line) on such day in the amount of the Reimbursement Obligation then due, which Borrowing, if otherwise available hereunder, shall be applied to pay the Reimbursement Obligation then due.
Section 2.5.Funding of Borrowings.
(a)Each Lender will make available each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer in immediately available funds by 1:00 p.m. to the 
-40-

Administrative Agent at the Payment Office.  The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrowers by promptly crediting the amounts that it receives, in like funds by the close of business on such proposed date, to an account maintained by the Borrowers with the Administrative Agent or at the Borrowers’ option, by effecting a wire transfer of such amounts to an account designated by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent.
(b)Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to 12:00 p.m. on the date of a Borrowing in which such Lender is to participate that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date, and the Administrative Agent, in reliance on such assumption, may make available to the Borrowers on such date a corresponding amount (each such advance, a “Disproportionate Advance”).  If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender on the date of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such Disproportionate Advance on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such Disproportionate Advance was made available to the Borrowers and ending on (but excluding) the date such Lender makes available such Disproportionate Advance to the Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to:  (i) from the date the Disproportionate Advance was made by the Administrative Agent to the date 2 Business Days after payment by such Lender is due hereunder, the greater of, for each such day, (x) the Federal Funds Rate and (y) an overnight rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any standard administrative or processing fees charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with such Lender’s non‐payment and (ii) from the date 2 Business Days after the date such share of the applicable Borrowing is due from such Lender to the date such payment is made by such Lender, the Base Rate in effect for each such day.  If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers, and the Borrowers shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent together with interest at the rate specified for such Borrowing.  Nothing in this subsection shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.
(c)All Borrowings shall be made by the Lenders on the basis of their respective Pro Rata Shares of the applicable facility.  No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligations hereunder, and each Lender shall be obligated to make its Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to make its Loans hereunder.
Section 2.6.Minimum Borrowing Amounts; Maximum LIBOR Rate Loans.  Each Borrowing of Base Rate Loans (other than Swing Loans) advanced shall be in an amount not less than $500,000 or such greater amount that is an integral multiple of $50,000.  Each Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans advanced, continued or converted shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or such greater amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000.  Without the 
-41-

Administrative Agent’s consent, there shall not be more than five (5) Borrowings of LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any one time.
Section 2.7.Optional Reduction and Termination of Revolving Commitments.
(a)Unless previously terminated, all Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.
(b)Upon at least three Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be irrevocable), the Borrowers may reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments in part or terminate the Aggregate Revolving Commitments in whole; provided that any partial reduction shall apply to reduce proportionately and permanently the Revolving Commitment of each Lender and any partial reduction pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be in an amount of at least $1,000,000 and any larger multiple of $500,000.  The Borrowers shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, the Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount. Any termination of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.7 may not be reinstated.
(c)The Borrowers may terminate (on a non‐ratable basis) the unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of a Defaulting Lender upon not less than five Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section 2.21 will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrowers for the account of any such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts); provided that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.
(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing, any notice of a termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrowers may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of one or more other transactions, in which case such notice may be revoked (subject to the payment of amounts due under Section 2.18) by the Borrowers (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.
Section 2.8.Repayment of Loans.  The outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Loans and Swing Loans shall be due and payable (together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon) on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.
Section 2.9.Evidence of Indebtedness.
(a)Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice appropriate records evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable thereon and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.  The 
-42-

Administrative Agent shall maintain appropriate records in which shall be recorded (i) the Revolving Commitment of each Lender, (ii) the amount of each Extension of Credit made hereunder by each Lender and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (iii) the date and amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder in respect of such Extension of Credit and (iv) both the date and amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrowers in respect of the Loans and each Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share thereof.  The entries made in such records shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrowers therein recorded; provided that the failure or delay of any Lender or the Administrative Agent in maintaining or making entries into any such record or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans (both principal and unpaid accrued interest) of such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(b)In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Revolving Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Revolving Lender of participations in Letters of Credit.  ln the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Revolving Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.
(c)At the request of any Lender at any time, the Borrowers agree that they will execute and deliver to such Lender a Revolving Credit Note payable to the order of such Lender. At the request of the Swing Line Lender, the Borrowers agree that they will execute and deliver a Swing Note payable to the order of the Swing Line Lender.
Section 2.10.Optional Prepayments.
The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, by giving irrevocable written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. not less than three Business Days prior to any such prepayment of LIBOR Rate Loans or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or Swing Loans bearing interest at the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate, notice delivered by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of prepayment.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the proposed date of such prepayment and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid.  Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender of the contents thereof and of such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of any such prepayment.  If such notice is given, the aggregate amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date designated in such notice and, in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, all accrued interest to such date on the amount so prepaid in accordance with Section 2.12(b); provided that if a Borrowing is prepaid on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrowers shall also pay all amounts required pursuant to Section 2.18.  Partial prepayments shall be in an aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof; provided, that the amount 
-43-

remaining outstanding shall be in an amount not less than required by Section 2.6.  Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans comprising such Borrowing.  A notice of prepayment received after 11:00 a.m. shall be deemed received on the next Business Day.  All prepayments of LIBOR Rate Loans under this Section 2.10 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but excluding the date of prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any notice of prepayment delivered by the Borrowers may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of one or more other transactions, in which case such notice may be revoked (subject to the payment of amounts due under Section 2.18) by the Borrowers (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied, so long as notice of such revocation is delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than the Business Day (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree) prior to the proposed date of prepayment.
Section 2.11.Mandatory Prepayments.
If at any time the Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders exceeds the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount, as reduced pursuant to Section 2.7 or otherwise, the Borrowers shall first, immediately repay Revolving Loans and, if necessary, Swing Loans, second, repay any Reimbursement Obligations and thereafter, Cash Collateralize undrawn L/C Obligations in an amount equal to such excess, together with all accrued and unpaid interest on such excess amount and any amounts due under Section 2.18.
Section 2.12.Interest on Loans.
(a)Base Rate Loans. Each Base Rate Loan made or maintained by a Lender shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is advanced or created by conversion from a LIBOR Rate Loan until, but excluding, the date of repayment thereof at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect, payable in arrears by the Borrowers on each Interest Payment Date and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise).
(b)LIBOR Rate Loans.  Each LIBOR Rate Loan made or maintained by a Lender shall bear interest during each Interest Period it is outstanding (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is advanced, continued or created by conversion from a Base Rate Loan until, but excluding, the date of repayment thereof at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Adjusted LIBOR applicable for such Interest Period, payable in arrears by the Borrowers on each Interest Payment Date and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise).
(c)Default Rate.  Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, if (i) an Event of Default specified in Section 9.1(a), Section 9.1(b), Section 9.1(g) or Section 9.1(h) has occurred and is continuing, (ii) if an Event of Default specified in Section 9.1(d) (solely with respect to noncompliance with Section 8.4) or Section 9.1(e) (solely with respect to an Event of Default caused by a failure to deliver the financial statements required by Section 6.1) has occurred and has been continuing for thirty (30) days or (iii) otherwise at the request of the Required Lenders 
-44-

if any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then at the request of the Required Lenders, the Borrowers shall pay interest, in each case (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the principal amount of all Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, L/C Participation Fees and other amounts owing by it at a rate per annum equal to:
(i)for any Base Rate Loan and any Swing Loan bearing interest at the Base Rate, the sum of 2.00% per annum plus the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect;
(ii)for any LIBOR Rate Loan and any Swing Loan bearing interest at the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate, the sum of 2.00% per annum plus the rate of interest in effect thereon at the time of such Event of Default until the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and, thereafter, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2.00% plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect;
(iii)for any Reimbursement Obligation, the sum of 2.00% plus the amounts due under Section 3.5 with respect to such Reimbursement Obligation;
(iv)for any Letter of Credit, the sum of 2.00% plus the L/C Participation Fee due under Section 3.3 with respect to such Letter of Credit; and
(v)for any other amount owing hereunder not covered by clauses (i) through (iv) above, the sum of 2.00% plus the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect.
(d)Rate Determinations.  The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations hereunder, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive and binding except in the case of manifest error.  
Section 2.13.Fees.
(a)The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account fees in the amounts and at the times previously agreed upon in writing by Fortegra and the Administrative Agent in that certain Engagement Letter dated June 17, 2020, or as otherwise agreed to in writing between Fortegra and the Administrative Agent.
(b)The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (other than Defaulting Lenders) a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Percentage per annum on the daily amount of the Unused Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the Availability Period.
(c)Accrued fees under clause (b) above shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing on September 30, 2020 and on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (and if later, the date the Loans shall be repaid in their entirety); provided further, that any such fees accruing after the Revolving Credit Maturity Date shall be payable on demand.
-45-

(d)Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any fees accruing during such period pursuant to clause (b) of this Section (without prejudice to the rights of the Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees), or any amendment fees hereafter offered to any Lender, and the pro rata payment provisions of Section 2.20 will automatically be deemed adjusted to reflect the provisions of this Section.
Section 2.14.Computation of Interest and Fees.
Interest on the Loans shall accrue commencing on the day on which the disbursement of proceeds of the Loan or applicable portion thereof is made.  Payments of interest that are periodically required shall include interest accrued to (but excluding) the day on which the payment is made.  All other computations of interest and fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable (to the extent computed on the basis of days elapsed).  Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest amount or fee hereunder shall be made in good faith and, except for manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.
Section 2.15.[RESERVED].
Section 2.16.Unavailability of Deposits or Inability to Ascertain, or Inadequacy of, LIBOR.
(a)In the event, prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans:
(i)the Administrative Agent determines that deposits in Dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to it in the interbank eurodollar market for such Interest Period, or that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank eurodollar market adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR, or
(ii)the Required Lenders advise the Administrative Agent that (A) LIBOR as determined by the Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding their LIBOR Rate Loans for such Interest Period or (B) that the making or funding of LIBOR Rate Loans become impracticable,
then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give written notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders (which shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Lenders), and (x) any request for LIBOR Rate Loans or for a conversion to or continuation of a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be automatically withdrawn and shall be deemed a request for a Base Rate Loan, (y) each LIBOR Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest Period relating thereto, become a Base Rate Loan, and (z) the obligations of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent determines that the circumstances 
-46-

giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, in which event the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrowers and the Lenders.
(b)In the event Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be deemed presumptively correct absent manifest error) that:
(i)the circumstances set forth in Section 2.16(a) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary;
(ii)a public statement or publication of information (A) by or on behalf of the administrator of LIBOR, or by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of LIBOR, the U.S. Federal Reserve System, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for LIBOR, a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for LIBOR or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator of LIBOR, in each case, which states that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide LIBOR, permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of the statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide LIBOR;  (B) by the administrator of LIBOR that it has invoked or will invoke, permanently or indefinitely, its insufficient submissions policy, or (C) by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of LIBOR or any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent announcing that LIBOR is no longer representative or may no longer be used;
(iii)a LIBOR Rate is not published by the administrator for five (5) consecutive Business Days and such failure is not the result of a temporary moratorium, embargo or disruption declared by the administrator of LIBOR or by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of LIBOR; or
(iv)a new index rate has become a widely-recognized replacement benchmark rate for LIBOR in newly originated loans denominated in Dollars in the U.S. market;
then, Administrative Agent may, in consultation with the Borrowers, amend this Agreement as described below to replace LIBOR with an alternative benchmark rate, and to modify the applicable margins and make other related amendments, in each case giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. Dollar denominated credit facilities, or any selection, endorsement or recommendation by a relevant governmental body with respect to such facilities.  The Administrative Agent shall provide notice to the Borrowers and enter into an amendment of this Agreement to reflect the replacement index, adjusted margins and such other related amendments as may be appropriate, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, for the implementation and administration of the replacement index-based rate; provided, however, any amendment that would have the effect of increasing the L/C Participation Fee shall require the consent of the Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 11.2), such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date that a 
-47-

draft of the amendment is provided to the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent receives, on or before such fifth (5th) Business Day, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Lenders object to such amendment. For the avoidance of doubt, following the date when a determination is made pursuant to subsection (b)(i) above and until a replacement index has been selected and implemented in accordance with the terms and conditions of subsection (b)(ii) above, all Loans shall accrue interest at, and the interest rate shall be, the Base Rate.
(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time the replacement index is less than zero, then at such times, such index shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Agreement.
Section 2.17.Increased Cost. 
(a)Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:
(i)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except with respect to the applicable Reserve Percentage with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loans) or the Issuing Lender; 
(ii)subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
(iii)impose on any Lender or the Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender, the Issuing Lender or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, Issuing Lender or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, Issuing Lender or other Recipient, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender, Issuing Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, Issuing Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b)Capital Requirements.  If any Lender or the Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Issuing Lender or any lending office of 
-48-

such Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c)Certificates for Reimbursement.  A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 2.17(a) or (b) above and delivered to the Borrowers, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.
(d)Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine‐month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
Section 2.18.Funding Indemnity.
In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of a LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the failure by the Borrowers to borrow, continue or prepay any LIBOR Rate Loan, on the date specified in any applicable notice (regardless of whether such notice is withdrawn or revoked), or (c) a reallocation of LIBOR Rate Loans among the Lenders by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.22(f), then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender, within five Business Days after written demand from such Lender, for any loss, cost or expense attributable to such event (excluding loss of anticipated profits).  Such loss, cost or expense shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan if such event had not occurred at the rate applicable to such Loan for the period from the date of 
-49-

such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or in the case of a failure to borrow or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan) over (B) the amount of interest that would accrue on the principal amount of such Loan for the same period if the rate were set on the date such Loan was prepaid or converted or the date on which the Borrowers failed to borrow or continue such Loan.  A certificate as to any additional amount payable under this Section 2.18 submitted to the Borrowers by any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
Section 2.19.Taxes.
(a)For purposes of this Section 2.19, the term “Lender” includes the Issuing Lender and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
(b)Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes except to the extent required by law; provided that if the Borrowers shall be required (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable Borrower) to deduct or withhold any Tax from such payments, then (i) the Borrowers shall be entitled to make such deductions or withholdings, (ii) the Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, and (iii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to Indemnified Taxes) the Administrative Agent or any Lender (as the case may be) shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made.
(c)In addition, the Borrowers shall pay, without duplication, any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for the payment of any Other Taxes.
(d)The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, twenty Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.19) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided, however, that as soon as practicable after any payment of such Indemnified Taxes by such Lender or the Administrative Agent to any Governmental Authority, such Lender or the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrowers, as soon as reasonably practicable, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers.
-50-

(e)Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrowers have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.4 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (d).
(f)As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by the Borrowers to a Governmental Authority, the Borrowers shall, to the extent available to the Borrowers, deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(g)Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments under the Loan Documents shall deliver to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers in writing, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrowers, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers as will enable the Borrowers to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Foreign Lender agrees that it will deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (or in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased and to the Administrative Agent), as appropriate, two duly completed originals of (i) IRS Form W‐8ECI, or any successor form thereto, certifying that the payments received from the Borrowers under the Loan Documents are effectively connected with such Foreign Lender’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States; or (ii) IRS Form W‐8BEN, W‐8BEN‐E, or any successor form thereto, certifying that such Foreign Lender is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which eliminates or reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest; or (iii) IRS Form W‐8BEN, W‐8BEN‐E, or any successor form prescribed by the IRS, together with a certificate (A) establishing that the payment to the Foreign Lender qualifies as “portfolio interest” exempt from U.S. withholding tax under Code section 871(h) or 881(c), and (B) stating that (1) the Foreign Lender is not a bank for purposes of Code section 881(c)(3)(A), or the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder is not, with respect to such Foreign Lender, a loan 
-51-

agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business, within the meaning of that section; (2) the Foreign Lender is not a 10% shareholder of the Borrowers within the meaning of Code section 871(h)(3) or 881(c)(3)(B); and (3) the Foreign Lender is not a controlled foreign corporation that is related to the Borrowers within the meaning of Code section 881(c)(3)(C); or (iv) such other IRS forms as may be applicable to the Foreign Lender, including Forms W‐8IMY (including all required statements) or W‐8EXP.  Each non‐Foreign Lender agrees that it will deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (or in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased and to the Administrative Agent), as appropriate, two duly completed originals of Form W‐9, or any successor form thereto, certifying that such non‐Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption from U.S. backup withholding tax.  Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent such forms required to be delivered to it by this Section 2.19(f) on or before the date that it becomes a party to this Agreement (or in the case of a Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation).  In addition, each Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent any requisite updated or new forms promptly upon (i) the obsolescence, expiration, or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Lender under this Section 2.19 and (ii) the reasonable request from a Borrower or the Administrative Agent from time to time.  Each such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at any time that it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrowers (or any other form of certification adopted by the IRS for such purpose).
(h)If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender 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 shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(i)If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Borrower or with respect to which the Borrowers have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.19, the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall pay to the Borrowers an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrowers under this Section 2.19 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out‐of‐pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); 
-52-

provided that the Borrowers, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agree to repay the amount paid over to the Borrowers (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information that it deems confidential) to the Borrowers or any other person.
(j)Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.19 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
Section 2.20.Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set‐offs.
(a)The Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made by them hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date when due, in immediately available funds, free and clear of any defenses, rights of set‐off, or counterclaim.  Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon.  All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office, except that payments pursuant to Section 2.17, Section 2.18, Section 2.19, and Section 11.3 hereof shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.  Each payment to the Administrative Agent of the Issuing Lender’s fees or L/C Participants’ commissions shall be made in like manner, but for the account of the Issuing Lender or the L/C Participants, as the case may be.  If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be made payable for the period of such extension.  All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars.
(b)If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied in the order of priority set forth in Section 9.2.  If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of the Lenders in accordance with such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such outstanding Loans or other Obligations then owing to such Lender.
(c)If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set‐off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans that would result in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then 
-53-

the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in Letters of Credit to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).  The Borrowers consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent they may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrowers rights of set‐off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation.
(d)Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount or amounts due.  In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
Section 2.21.Payments to Defaulting Lenders.
(a)Defaulting Lender Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:
(i)Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders and Section 11.2.
(ii)Payments to Defaulting Lenders.  Any amount paid by the Borrowers for the account of a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but will instead be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated non‐interest bearing account until the termination of the Revolving

Commitments at which time the funds in such account will be applied by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in the following order of priority: first to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, second to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender hereunder, third to Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.25 (in which case, any Cash Collateral previously provided to the Borrowers shall be returned to them to the extent of the amount so applied under this clause third), fourth as the Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent, fifth if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (A) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans and funded participations under this Agreement and (B) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lender’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued and Swing Loans made under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.25, sixth to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement, seventh so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement, and eighth to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct; provided that in the case of this clause eighth, if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Obligations in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or L/C Obligations were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Obligations owed to, all Non‐Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender.  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.21(a)(i) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
(iii)Certain Fees.  (A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fee under Section 2.13(a) or any amendment fees, waiver fees, or similar fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).
-55-

(B)Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any L/C Participation Fee under Section 3.3 and amounts owed to it in respect of participating interest in Swing Loans under Section 2.2(e) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit and participating interests in Swing Loans for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.25.
(C)With respect to any fees not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrowers shall (x) pay to each Non‐Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans that has been reallocated to such Non‐Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the Swing Line Lender and to the Issuing Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to the Swing Line Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.
(iv)Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations and Swing Loans shall automatically be reallocated among the Non‐Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share of Revolving Commitments (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment) but only to the extent that (A) the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrowers shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (B) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non‐Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non‐Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment.  No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non‐Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non‐Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.
(v)Cash Collateral.  If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to them hereunder or under law, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lender’s and the Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.25.
(b)Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender and the Issuing Lender agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), such Lender will, to the extent 
-56-

applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable facility hereunder (without giving effect to Section 2.21(a)(ii)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
(c)New Swing Loans/Letters of Credit.  So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Loan and (ii) the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.
Section 2.22.Increase of Commitments; Additional Lenders.
(a)So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, from time to time after the Restatement Effective Date, the Borrowers may, upon at least ten days’ written notice (or such shorter period of time as the Administrative Agent may agree to in its sole discretion) to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly provide a copy of such notice to each Lender), propose to increase the Aggregate Revolving Commitments (an “Incremental Revolving Commitment” or an “Incremental Facility”); provided that the aggregate amount of all Incremental Revolving Commitments shall not exceed $50,000,000 in the aggregate over the term of this Agreement.  No Lender shall have any obligation to extend any Incremental Facility.
(b)The Borrowers may designate a bank or other financial institution (which may be, but need not be, one or more of the existing Lenders) to extend such Incremental Facility (each, an “Additional Lender”), which at the time agrees to extend such Incremental Facility; provided however, that any new bank or financial institution must be acceptable to the Administrative Agent, which acceptance will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
(c)In the case of each Incremental Revolving Commitment:
(i)such Incremental Revolving Commitment shall have the same terms as the existing Revolving Commitments (other than any initial upfront fees paid to the Additional Lenders extending such Incremental Revolving Commitment); and
(ii)the outstanding Revolving Loans and the Pro Rata Share of L/C Obligations will be reallocated by the Administrative Agent on the applicable increase effective date among the Revolving Lenders (including the Additional Lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Commitment) in accordance with their revised Pro Rata Shares (and the Revolving Lenders (including the Additional Lenders providing such 
-57-

Incremental Revolving Commitment) agree to make all payments and adjustments necessary to effect such reallocation and the Borrowers shall pay any and all costs required pursuant to Section 2.18 in connection with such reallocation as if such reallocation were a repayment).
(d)An Incremental Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.22 shall become effective upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent of:
(i)a supplement or joinder in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent executed by the Borrowers and by each Additional Lender setting forth the Incremental Revolving Commitments of such Lenders and setting forth the agreement of each Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement and to be bound by all the terms and provisions hereof,
(ii)evidence of appropriate corporate authorization on the part of the Borrowers with respect to the Incremental Facility, and
(iii)a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrowers to the effect that (A) the conditions set forth in Section 4.2(a) and (b) will be satisfied before and after giving effect to the incurrence of the Incremental Facility and (B) after giving effect to such increase and the payment of any related fees, the Borrowers would be in compliance on a pro forma basis with the covenants set forth in Section 8.4 (after giving effect to any Borrowings to be made on the date that the Incremental Facility becomes effective, and deeming any Incremental Revolving Commitment to be fully drawn for purposes of calculating such compliance).
(e)Upon the acceptance of any such agreement by the Administrative Agent, (i) the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount shall automatically be increased by the amount of the Incremental Revolving Commitments added through such agreement and (ii) Schedule I shall automatically be deemed amended to reflect the Commitments of all Lenders after giving effect to the addition of such Commitments.
(f)Each supplement or joinder agreement referred to in clause (d)(i) above may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provision of this Section 2.22, and for the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.22 shall supersede any provisions of Sections 2.20 or 11.2 to the contrary.
Section 2.23.Mitigation of Obligations.
If any Lender requests compensation by reason of increased costs as provided in Section 2.17, or if the Borrowers are required to indemnify or pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce 
-58-

amounts payable under Section 2.17 or Section 2.19, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) in the sole judgment of such Lender, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with such designation or assignment.
Section 2.24.Replacement of Lenders.
(a)If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.17, or (b) if the Borrowers are required to indemnify or pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, or (c) if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or (d) if, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver, or consent, the consent of all of the Lenders, or all of the Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby, is required pursuant to Section 11.2, and any such Lender refuses to consent to such amendment, waiver or consent as to which the Required Lenders have consented, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort (but without prejudice to any rights or remedies the Borrowers may have against such Defaulting Lender), upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 11.4(b)) all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender but excluding any Defaulting Lender); provided that (i) the Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of all Loans owed to it, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (in the case of such outstanding principal and accrued interest) and from the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of a claim for compensation under Section 2.17 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.19, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments.  A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
Section 2.25.Cash Collateral.
At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, promptly following the written request of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.21(a)(ii) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount.
(a)Grant of Security Interest.  Each Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lender’s 
-59-

obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations and Swing Loans, to be applied pursuant to subsection (b) below.  If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent (other than liens permitted by Section 8.2(a)) or the Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrowers will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).
(b)Application.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.25 or Section 2.21 in respect of Letters of Credit and Swing Loans shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations and Swing Loans (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.
(c)Termination of Requirement.  Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Lender and Swing Line Lender shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.25 following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the good faith determination by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.21, the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations; and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrowers, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.
ARTICLE III

Section 3.1.L/C Commitment.
(a)Availability.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to issue standby letters of credit for the account of the Borrowers or any Subsidiary thereof (including Fortegra Indemnity) on any Business Day from the Restatement Effective Date through but not including the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date in such form as may be approved from time to time by the Issuing Lender; provided that the Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (a) the L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment or (b) the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount.  Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars, (ii) be a standby letter of credit issued to 
-60-

support obligations of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, contingent or otherwise, incurred in the ordinary course of business, (iii) expire on a date no more than twelve months after the date of issuance or last renewal of such Letter of Credit (subject to automatic renewal for additional one year periods pursuant to the terms of the Letter of Credit Application or other documentation acceptable to the Issuing Lender), which date shall be no later than the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and (iv) be subject to the Uniform Customs and/or ISP98, as set forth in the Letter of Credit Application or as determined by the Issuing Lender.  The Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant 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; provided that the Issuing Lender shall not extend any such Letter of Credit if it has received written notice that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time the Issuing Lender must elect to allow such extension.
(b)Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, ARTICLE III shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.21 and Section 2.25.
Section 3.2.Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit.
The Borrowers may from time to time request that the Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to the Administrative Agent a Letter of Credit Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of the Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as the Issuing Lender may reasonably request; provided, that, if the Borrowers request the Issuing Lender to issue a Letter of Credit for the account of Fortegra Indemnity (or any successor thereof), the Borrowers shall (i) deliver a Letter of Credit Application to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Borrowers and Fortegra Indemnity (or any successor thereof) requesting that Fortegra Indemnity (or any successor thereof) be named as the applicant in such Letter of Credit, which Letter of Credit Application shall be completed to the satisfaction of the Issuing Lender, (ii) at the request of the Issuing Lender, enter into a reimbursement agreement with Fortegra Indemnity (or any successor thereof) in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender, which agreement shall be executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent prior to the issuance of such Letter of Credit, and (iii) deliver such other certificates, documents, papers and other information as the Issuing Lender may reasonably request.  Upon receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the Issuing Lender shall process such Letter of Credit Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall, subject to Section 3.1 and ARTICLE IV, promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall the Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than three Business Days after its receipt of the Letter of Credit Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto, including, if applicable, a reimbursement agreement) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed by the Issuing Lender 
-61-

and the Borrowers.  The Issuing Lender shall promptly furnish to the Borrowers a copy of such Letter of Credit and promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the issuance and upon request by any Revolving Lender, furnish to such Lender a copy of such Letter of Credit and the amount of such Revolving Lender’s participation therein.
Section 3.3.Commissions and Other Charges.
(a)Letter of Credit Commissions.  Subject to Section 2.25, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants, a letter of credit commission with respect to each Letter of Credit in the amount equal to the product of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit times the Applicable Margin (determined on a per annum basis) (the “L/C Participation Fee”).  Such commission shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and thereafter on demand of the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, distribute to the Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants all commissions received pursuant to this Section 3.3 in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment.
(b)Issuance Fee.  In addition to the foregoing commission, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, an issuance fee with respect to each Letter of Credit equal to 0.125% of the face amount of (or of the increase in the face amount of) such Letter of Credit.  Such issuance fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and thereafter on demand of the Administrative Agent.
(c)Other Costs.  In addition to the foregoing fees and commissions, the Borrowers shall pay or reimburse the Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by the Issuing Lender in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit.
Section 3.4.L/C Participations.
(a)The Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Pro Rata Share in the Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and the amount of each draft paid by the Issuing Lender thereunder.  Each L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with the Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which the Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrowers through a Revolving Loan or otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender, regardless of whether an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon demand at the Issuing Lender’s address 
-62-

for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed.
(b)Upon becoming aware of any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall notify each L/C Participant of the amount and due date of such required payment and such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender the amount specified on the applicable due date.  If any such amount is paid to the Issuing Lender after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender on demand, in addition to such amount, the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent during the period from and including the date such payment is due to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360.  A certificate of the Issuing Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.  With respect to payment to the Issuing Lender of the unreimbursed amounts described in this Section, if the L/C Participants receive notice that any such payment is due (A) prior to 1:00 p.m. on any Business Day, such payment shall be due that Business Day, and (B) after 1:00 p.m. on any Business Day, such payment shall be due on the following Business Day.
(c)Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its Pro Rata Share of such payment in accordance with this Section, the Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrowers or otherwise), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Issuing Lender will distribute to such L/C Participant its Pro Rata Share thereof provided that in the event that any such payment received by the Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by the Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to the Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it.
Section 3.5.Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrowers.
In the event of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the Borrowers agree to reimburse (either with the proceeds of a Revolving Loan as provided for in this Section or with funds from other sources), in same day funds, the Issuing Lender on the next Business Day following the date on which the Issuing Lender notifies the Borrowers of the date and amount of a draft paid under any Letter of Credit for the amount of (a) such draft so paid and (b) any amounts referred to in Section 3.3(c) incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with such payment.  Unless the Borrowers shall immediately notify the Issuing Lender that the Borrowers intend to reimburse the Issuing Lender for such drawing from other sources or funds, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have timely given a Notice of Borrowing to the Administrative Agent requesting that the Revolving Lenders make a Revolving Loan bearing interest at the Base Rate on such date in the amount of (i) such draft so paid and (ii) any amounts referred to in Section 3.3(c) incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with such payment, and the Revolving Lenders shall make a Loan bearing interest at such rate in such amount, the proceeds 
-63-

of which shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount of the related drawing and costs and expenses.  Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to fund a Revolving Loan in accordance with this Section to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any draft paid under a Letter of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, non‐satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.4 or ARTICLE IV.  If the Borrowers have elected to pay the amount of such drawing with funds from other sources and shall fail to reimburse the Issuing Lender as provided above, the unreimbursed amount of such drawing shall bear interest at the rate which would be payable on any outstanding Base Rate Loans which were then overdue from the date such amounts become payable (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) until payment in full.
Section 3.6.Obligations Absolute.
The Borrowers’ obligations under this ARTICLE III (including, without limitation, the Reimbursement Obligation) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any set off, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrowers may have or have had against the Issuing Lender or any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person.  The Borrowers also agree that the Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants shall not be responsible for, and the Borrowers’ Reimbursement Obligation under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrowers and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Borrowers against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee.  The Issuing Lender shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions caused by the Issuing Lender’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final nonappealable judgment.  The Borrowers agree that any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding on the Borrowers and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to the Borrowers.  The responsibility of the Issuing Lender to the Borrowers in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such Letter of Credit.
Section 3.7.Effect of Letter of Credit Application.
To the extent that any provision of any Letter of Credit Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this ARTICLE III, the provisions of this ARTICLE III shall apply.
-64-

Section 5.8.Insurance Licenses.
To the extent required by applicable law, each Regulated Insurance Company holds a License and is authorized to transact Insurance Business in (a) the line or lines of insurance it is engaged in and (b) the state, states or jurisdictions it transacts business in, except to the extent that the failure to have such a License or authority could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No such License, the loss of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, is the subject of a proceeding for suspension, limitation or revocation.  To the Borrowers’ knowledge, no such suspension, limitation or revocation has been threatened by any Applicable Insurance Regulatory Authority or other Governmental Authority, except to the extent of which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The Regulated Insurance Companies do not transact any business, directly or indirectly, requiring any license, permit, governmental approval, consent or other authorization other than those currently obtained, except to the extent of which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Section 5.9.Investment Company Act, Etc.
None of the Borrowers nor any of their Subsidiaries is (a) an “investment company” or is “controlled” by an “investment company”, as such terms are defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or (b) otherwise subject to any other regulatory scheme limiting its ability to incur debt or requiring any approval or consent from or registration or filing with, any Governmental Authority in connection therewith.

The Borrowers and their Subsidiaries have timely filed or caused to be filed all Federal income tax returns and all other material tax returns that are required to be filed by them, and have paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns or on any assessments made against it or its property and all other taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority, except (i) where the same (a) are not overdue or (b) are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which such Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, has set aside on its books adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP or (ii) where the failure to file or pay could not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.  The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries in respect of such taxes are adequate (determined based on GAAP), and no tax liabilities that could be materially in excess of the amount so provided are anticipated with respect to the periods covered by such charges, accruals or reserves at the time such Borrower or such Subsidiary establishes such charges, accruals and reserves.

No event has occurred since the issuance of such financial statements that would cause the “accumulated benefit obligations” of all Plans to exceed the “fair value of plan assets” of such Plans by the dollar amount specified in the previous sentence.

(b)Each Employee Benefit Plan is in compliance except as could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other Requirements of Law.  Except with respect to Multiemployer Plans, each Qualified Plan has received a favorable determination letter or opinion letter from the IRS.  To the best of Borrowers’ knowledge, no event has occurred which would cause the loss of the Borrowers’ or any ERISA Affiliate’s reliance on the Qualified Plan’s favorable determination letter or opinion letter.
(c)With respect to any Employee Benefit Plan that is a retiree welfare benefit arrangement, all amounts have been accrued on the Borrowers’ financial statements in accordance with GAAP Accounting Standards Codification Topic 715‐60.

No claim has been asserted and is pending by any person challenging or questioning the use of any such Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any such Intellectual Property that could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
(c)To the knowledge of each of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, on and as of the date hereof, there is no violation by others of any right of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries with respect to any Intellectual Property that could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

Such security interests and Liens will be created 
-78-

under the Security Documents and other security agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust and other instruments and documents in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and the Borrowers shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Administrative Agent all such instruments and documents (including legal opinions, title insurance policies and lien searches) as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request to evidence compliance with this Section.  The Borrowers agree to provide such evidence as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the perfection and priority status of each such security interest and Lien.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, unless at the request of the Administrative Agent if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (w) no real property shall constitute Collateral, (x) neither the Borrowers nor the Guarantors will be required to provide Collateral or to perfect a security interest in any Collateral to the extent the burden or cost of obtaining or perfecting a security interest therein outweighs the benefit of the security afforded thereby as determined by both the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent or if the granting of a security interest in such Collateral would be prohibited by enforceable anti‐assignment provisions of contracts or applicable law (after giving effect to relevant provisions of the UCC), (y) no foreign law security or pledge agreements shall be required and (z) no deposit account control agreements (or similar agreements) shall be required.
Notwithstanding anything set forth in the foregoing or in any other Loan Document, the security interest granted by SBAC shall be subject and subordinate, in all respects, to the security interest granted by SBAC to the South Bay Lender pursuant to the South Bay Credit Facility and the South Bay Guaranty.
Section 6.10.Post‐Closing Matters.

Section 6.13.Compliance with Sanctions.  
(a)Each Loan Party shall at all times comply in all material respects with the requirements of all Sanctions Programs applicable to such Loan Party and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply in all material respects with the requirements of all Sanctions Programs applicable to such Subsidiary.
-79-

(b)No Loan Party will use any proceeds of the Loans (and the Borrowers shall not request any Letter of Credit, the proceeds of which, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties, will be used to) finance or otherwise fund, directly or, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties, indirectly, (i) any activity or business with or related to any Sanctioned Person or any Sanctioned Country in violation of any Sanctions Program or (ii) in any other manner that will result in a violation of any Sanctions Program by any Person (including any Person participating in the Loans or Letters of Credit, whether as lender, underwriter, advisor, investor, or otherwise).
Section 6.14.Beneficial Ownership Certification and Additional Information.
The Borrowers shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the relevant Lenders: (a) to the extent required by law, a new Beneficial Ownership Certification when the individual(s) to be identified as a Beneficial Owner have changed, and (b) such other information and documentation as may reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender from time to time for purposes of compliance by the Administrative Agent or such Lender with applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations.

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to the Borrowers described in clause (g) or (h) of this Section 9.1) and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and upon the written request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrowers, take any or all of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate the Revolving Commitments, whereupon the Revolving Commitment of each Lender shall terminate immediately, (ii) declare the principal of and any accrued interest on the Loans, and all other Obligations owing hereunder, to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall become, due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers, (iii) exercise all remedies contained in any other Loan Document, and (iv) exercise any other remedies available at law or in equity; and if an Event of Default specified in either clause (g) or (h) shall occur, the Revolving Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon, and all fees, and all other Obligations shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers.

Amounts held in any L/C Cash Collateral Account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied, first, to the remaining L/C Obligations and second, in the order of priority set forth in Section 9.2.

ARTICLE X 
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
Section 10.1.Appointment and Authority    .
(a)Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Fifth Third to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, and neither the Borrowers nor any Subsidiary thereof shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions (other than this paragraph (a), Section 10.8 and Section 10.10).  It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.
(b)The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (including in its capacity as a potential party to a Hedging Transaction or Treasury Management Bank) and the Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably 
-87-

appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and the Issuing Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto (including, without limitation, to enter into additional Loan Documents or supplements to existing Loan Documents on behalf of the Secured Creditors).  In connection therewith, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and any co‐agents, sub‐agents and attorneys‐in‐fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this ARTICLE X for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of ARTICLE X and ARTICLE XI (including Section 11.3, as though such co‐agents, sub‐agents and attorneys‐in‐fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.
Section 10.2.Exculpatory Provisions.
(a)The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:
(i)shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;
(ii)shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and
(iii)shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
(b)The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 11.2 and Section 9.1) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as 
-88-

determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final nonappealable judgment.  The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers, a Lender or the Issuing Lender.
(c)The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in ARTICLE IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.
Section 10.3.Non‐Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.
Each Lender and the Issuing Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties 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 and the Issuing Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
Section 10.4.Reliance by the Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit.  The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action 
-89-

taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
Section 10.5.Delegation of Duties.
The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub‐agents appointed by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent and any such sub‐agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub‐agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub‐agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities as well as activities as Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub‐agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub‐agents.
Section 10.6.Rights as a Lender.
The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.  Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
Section 10.7.Enforcement.
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 for the benefit of all the Lenders and the Issuing Lender provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) 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, (b) the Issuing Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Issuing Lender) hereunder, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 11.7 (subject to the terms of Section 2.20), or (d) 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 
-90-

Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.1 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.20, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.
Section 10.8.Resignation of Administrative Agent.
(a)The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Borrowers.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrowers and subject to the consent of the Borrowers (provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such resignation), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above.  Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
(b)If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrowers and such Person, remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrowers, appoint a successor.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.
(c)With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable), (i) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuing Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and 
-91-

obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.  The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor.  After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 11.3 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub‐agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
(d)Any resignation by Fifth Third as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as Issuing Lender.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Lender and (ii) the retiring Issuing Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.  Notwithstanding such resignation by the retiring Issuing Lender, (i) the Letters of Credit issued by such retiring Issuing Lender shall remain outstanding and be deemed to have been issued hereunder until such time as such Letters of Credit expire in accordance with their respective terms (it being understood and agreed that no such Letter of Credit shall be extended after the date of such resignation by the retiring Issuing Lender) and (ii) the retiring Issuing Lender shall retain all of the rights of an Issuing Lender hereunder with respect to such Letters of Credit issued hereunder until such time as all Letters of Credit issued by such retiring Issuing Lender have expired in accordance with their terms.
Section 10.9.Reserved.
Section 10.10.Collateral and Guaranty Matters.
(a)Each of the Lenders (including in its or any of its Affiliate’s capacities as a Hedging Counterparty or a Treasury Management Bank) irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall:
(i)release any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent (or any sub‐agent thereof), for the ratable benefit of the Secured Creditors, under any Loan Document (A) upon the satisfaction of the Termination Conditions, (B) that is sold or disposed of to a Person that is not a Loan Party or (C) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 11.2;
(ii)subordinate any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Permitted Lien (including any Lien securing a Non‐Recourse Indebtedness); and
(iii)release any Guarantor from its obligations under any Loan Documents if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary, upon request, subordinate a Loan Party’s Guarantee of the Obligations to such Loan Party’s obligations under any Non‐Recourse Indebtedness 
-92-

on customary market terms, to the extent such subordination is necessary, in the reasonable judgment of the Borrowers, to obtain any such Non‐Recourse Indebtedness.
Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.10.  In each case as specified in this Section 10.10, the Administrative Agent will, at the Borrowers’ expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 10.10.
(b)The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

Any party hereto may change its address or telecopy number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto.  All such notices and other communications shall, when transmitted by overnight delivery, or faxed, be effective when delivered for overnight (next‐day) delivery, or transmitted in legible form by facsimile machine, respectively, or if mailed, upon the third Business Day after the date deposited into the mail or if delivered, upon delivery; provided that notices delivered to the Administrative Agent shall not be effective until actually received by the Administrative Agent at its address specified in this Section 11.1.
(b)Any agreement of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders herein to receive certain notices by telephone, facsimile or other electronic transmission is solely for the convenience and at the request of the Borrowers.  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any Person purporting to be a Person authorized by the Borrowers to give such notice and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not have any liability to the Borrowers or other Person on account of any action taken or not taken by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in reliance upon such telephonic or facsimile notice.  The obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans and all other Obligations hereunder shall not be 
-94-

affected in any way or to any extent by any failure of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to receive written confirmation of any telephonic or facsimile notice or the receipt by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of a confirmation which is at variance with the terms understood by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to be contained in any such telephonic or facsimile notice.
(c)Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e‐mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to ARTICLE II unless such Lender and Administrative Agent have agreed to receive notices under such Article by electronic communication and have agreed to the procedures governing such communications.  The Administrative Agent or a Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.
(d)Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e‐mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return email or other written acknowledgement); provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e‐mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.
(e)(i)    Each Loan Party agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the Communications (as defined below) available to the Issuing Lender and the other Lenders by posting the Communications on Debt Domain, Intralinks, SyndTrak or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”).
(ii)The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available”.  The Administrative Agent and its Related Parties do not warrant the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications.  No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, 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 any of the Administrative Agent or 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 or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation, 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 Platform.  
-95-

“Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material that any Loan Party provides to the Administrative Agent pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through the Platform.
Section 11.2.Waiver; Amendments.
(a)No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or any other Loan Document, and no course of dealing between the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent or any Lender, 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 right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power hereunder or thereunder.  The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.  No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrowers therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 11.2, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.
(b)No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, nor consent to any departure by the Borrowers therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that no amendment or waiver shall: (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.1 or 4.2, or the waiver of any Default, Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not constitute an extension or increase of any Commitment of any Lender), (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby (it being understood that any waiver of default interest set forth in 2.12(c) or any modification, waiver or amendment to the financial covenant definitions or financial ratios or any component thereof in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the interest rates or the commitment fees for purposes of this clause (ii)), (iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan or interest thereon or any fees hereunder or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date for the termination or reduction of any Revolving Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in 
-96-

Section 4.1 or 4.2, or the waiver of any Default, Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments, the waiver of any default interest set forth in 2.12(c) or any modification, waiver or amendment to the financial covenant definitions or financial ratios or any component thereof in this Agreement shall not constitute any of the foregoing), (iv) change Section 2.20(b) or Section 2.20(c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section 11.2 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders which are required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the consent of each Lender; (vi) release the Borrowers or any Guarantor or limit the liability of the Borrowers under the Loan Documents or any such Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement, without the written consent of each Lender except as otherwise permitted by Section 10.10; (vii) release all or substantially all Collateral securing any of the Obligations, without the written consent of each Lender; (viii) subordinate the Loans to any other Indebtedness without the consent of all Lenders; or (ix) waive any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.1, without the consent of each Lender, provided further that (1) no such amendment, waiver or consent shall affect the rights, duties or obligations of the Issuing Lender under this Agreement or any Letter of Credit Application relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it without the prior written consent of the Issuing Lender; and (2) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights, duties or obligations of the Administrative Agent without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) this Agreement may be amended and restated without the consent of any Lender (but with the consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent) if, upon giving effect to such amendment and restatement, such Lender shall no longer be a party to this Agreement (as so amended and restated), the Commitments of such Lender shall have terminated (but such Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17, Section 2.18, Section 2.19 and Section 11.3), such Lender shall have no other commitment or other obligation hereunder and shall have been paid in full all principal, interest and other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything herein or otherwise to the contrary, any Event of Default occurring hereunder shall continue to exist (and shall be deemed to be continuing) until such time as such Event of Default is waived in writing in accordance with the terms of this Section, notwithstanding (i) any attempted cure or other action taken by the Borrowers or any other Person subsequent to the occurrence of such Event of Default or (ii) any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent or any Lender prior to or subsequent to the occurrence of such Event of Default (other than the granting of a waiver in writing in accordance with the terms of this Section).
(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 11.2, (i) guarantees, collateral security agreements, pledge agreements and related documents (if any) executed by the Loan Parties in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be amended, supplemented and/or waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Borrowers without the input or need 
-97-

to obtain the consent of any other Lenders if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (x) to comply with local law or advice of local counsel, (y) to cure ambiguities, omissions or defects or (z) to cause such guarantees, collateral security agreements, pledge agreement or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent may, without the input or consent of any other Lender (other than each applicable Additional Lender, in the case of Section 2.22), effect amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary in the reasonable opinion of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to effect the provisions of Section 2.22 and (iii) if  the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall be permitted to amend such provision.
Section 11.3.Expenses; Indemnification.
(a)The Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out‐of‐pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable and documented out‐of‐pocket fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, in connection with syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers thereof (provided that reimbursement of legal expenses shall be limited to the expenses of one counsel to the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates taken as a whole and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in any relevant and material jurisdiction), (ii) all reasonable out‐of‐pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder, and (iii) all out‐of‐pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the fees, charges and disbursements of outside counsel (provided that reimbursement of legal expenses shall be limited to the expenses of one counsel to the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates and the Lenders taken as a whole and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in any relevant and material jurisdiction)) incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, any Lender or the Issuing Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 11.3, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out‐of‐pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans.
(b)The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub‐agent thereof), each Lender, the Issuing Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee (provided that reimbursement of legal expenses shall be limited to the expenses of one counsel to the Indemnitees taken as a whole, and, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel to the affected Indemnitees taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in any relevant and material jurisdiction)), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery 
-98-

of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) the use by any Person of any information or materials obtained by or through SyndTrak or other internet web sites, (iv) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, or (v) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrowers or such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or (z) relate to the presence or Release of Hazardous Materials or any violation of Environmental Laws that first occurs at any property after such property is transferred to an Indemnitee by means of foreclosure, deed‐in‐lieu of foreclosure or similar transfer, and is not an Environmental Liability of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries. Clause (b) of this Section 11.3 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.
(c)[RESERVED].
(d)To the extent that the Borrowers fail to pay any amount required to be paid to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, under clauses (a), (b) or (c) hereof, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or such Related Party as applicable, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that with respect to such unpaid amounts owed to the Issuing Lender solely in its capacity as such, only the Revolving Lenders shall be required to pay such unpaid amounts, such payment to be made severally among them based on such Revolving Lenders’ Pro Rata Share of Revolving Commitments (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought); provided further, that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified payment, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, Issuing Lender in its capacity as such.
(e)To the extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for 
-99-

special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to actual or direct damages) arising out of, in connection with or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated herein or therein, any Loan or the use of proceeds thereof.  No Indemnitee referred to in clause (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent such liability is determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnitee’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.
(f)All amounts due under this Section 11.3 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.
Section 11.4.Successors and Assigns.
(a)The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrowers may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraphs (b), (h) or (i) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section and (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (g) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b)Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i)Minimum Amounts.
(A)in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Loans at the time owing to it (under either facility hereunder) or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B)in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans 
-100-

and Revolving Credit Exposure outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Revolving Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Exposure of the assigning Revolving 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 or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $2,000,000 and shall be in increments of $500,000 in excess thereof, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that each Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such lower amount unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days after having received written notice thereof.
(ii)Proportionate Amounts.  Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Revolving Commitments assigned.
(iii)Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:
(A)the consent of the Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (I) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (II) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that each Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days after having received written notice thereof; and
(B)the consent of the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender shall be required for any assignment of Revolving Commitments or Revolving Credit Exposure.
(iv)Assignment and Acceptance.  The parties to each assignment shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (A) a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance, (B) a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, (C) an Administrative Questionnaire unless the assignee is already a Lender and (D) the documents required under Section 2.19.
(v)No Assignment to Borrowers or Defaulting Lenders.  No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrowers or any of the Borrowers’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries, or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).
(vi)No Assignment to Natural Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.
-101-

(vii)Certain Additional Payments.  In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested, but not funded by, the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitments.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 11.4, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement 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 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 of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17, Section 2.18, Section 2.19 and Section 11.3 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph (or paragraph (h) or (i)) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section 11.4.  If the consent of the Borrowers to an assignment is required hereunder (including a consent to an assignment which does not meet the minimum assignment thresholds specified above), the Borrowers shall be deemed to have given its consent ten Business Days after the date written notice thereof has actually been delivered by the assigning Lender (through the Administrative Agent) to the Borrowers, unless such consent is expressly refused by the Borrowers prior to such tenth Business Day.
(c)The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in Cincinnati, Ohio 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 Revolving Commitments of, and principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the Loans and Revolving Credit Exposure owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  Information contained in the Register with respect to any Lender shall be available for inspection by such Lender at any reasonable time and from time to 
-102-

-103-

Commitment (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.1 or 4.2, or the waiver of any Default, Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments, the waiver of any default interest set forth in 2.12(c)  or any modification, waiver or amendment to the financial covenant definitions or financial ratios or any component thereof in this Agreement shall not constitute any of the foregoing), (iv) change Section 2.20(b) or Section 2.20(c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section 11.4 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders which are required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, (vi) release any Guarantor or limit the liability of any Guarantor under any guaranty agreement except to the extent such release is expressly provided under the terms of the Guaranty Agreement, or (vii) release all or substantially all Collateral (if any) securing any of the Obligations.

To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.7 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.20 as though it were a Lender.
(f)A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.18 and Section 2.19 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrowers’ prior written consent.  A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.19 unless the Borrowers are notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.19(e) as though it were a Lender.
(g)Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(h)The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper‐based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Section 11.20. Acknowledgment Regarding any Supported QFCs .
To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedging Transactions or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and, each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the FDIC under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
(b)As used in this Section 11.20, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).
“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.
“QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).

In case of failure by the Borrowers or other obligor punctually to pay any Obligations guaranteed hereby, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally, jointly and severally agrees to make such payment or to cause such payment to be made punctually as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Borrowers or such obligor.
Section 12.2.Guarantee Unconditional .
The obligations of each Guarantor under this Article XII shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged, or otherwise affected by:
(a)any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver, or release in respect of any obligation of any Loan Party or other obligor or of any other guarantor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or by operation of law or otherwise;

(d)the existence of any claim, set‐off, or other rights which any Loan Party or other obligor or any other guarantor may have at any time against the Administrative 
-114-

(e)any failure to assert, or any assertion of, any claim or demand or any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any rights or remedies against any Loan Party or other obligor, any other guarantor, or any other Person or property;
(f)any application of any sums by rights of set‐off, counterclaim, or similar rights to any obligation of any Loan Party or other obligor, regardless of what obligations of any Loan Party or other obligor remain unpaid, including the Obligations;
(g)any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any Loan Party or other obligor or any other guarantor for any reason of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document or any agreement relating to Hedging Obligations or Treasury Management Obligations or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by any Loan Party or other obligor or any other guarantor of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation or any other amount payable under the Loan Documents or any agreement relating to Hedging Obligations or Treasury Management Obligations; or
(h)any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender, or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this clause (h), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the obligations of any Guarantor under this Article XII.
Section 12.3.Discharge Only upon Termination Conditions; Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances .
Each Guarantor’s obligations under this Article XII shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Conditions are satisfied.  If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation or any other amount payable by any Loan Party or other obligor or any Guarantor under the Loan Documents or any agreement relating to Hedging Obligations or Treasury Management Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of such Loan Party or other obligor or of any guarantor, or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under this Article XII with respect to such payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had become due but had not been made at such time.
Section 12.4.Subrogation .
Each Guarantor agrees it will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification by any payment made hereunder, or otherwise, until all the Obligations (other than any contingent or indemnification obligations not then due) shall have been paid in full or collateralized in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Lender or Affiliate of a Lender to whom such obligations are owed subsequent to the termination of all the Commitments and expiration of all Letters of Credit that are not Cash Collateralized pursuant to 
-115-

Section 2.25.  If any amount shall be paid to a Guarantor on account of such subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification rights at any time prior to the Termination Conditions being satisfied, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the Issuing Lender (and their Affiliates) and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender (and their Affiliates) or be credited and applied upon the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Section 12.5.Subordination .
Each Guarantor hereby subordinates the payment of all indebtedness, obligations, and liabilities of either Borrower or any other Loan Party owing to such Guarantor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations (other than any contingent obligations not due and owing and Letters of Credit Cash Collateralized); provided, however, that such Guarantor may receive distributions, dividends and principal and interest payments on account of such subordinated indebtedness so long as (i) all sums then due and payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders have been paid in full on or prior to such date, and (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.  During the existence of any Event of Default, subject to Section 12.4 above, any such indebtedness, obligation, or liability of either Borrower or any other Loan Party owing to such Guarantor shall be enforced and performance received by such Guarantor as trustee for the benefit of the holders of the Obligations and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to the Administrative Agent for application to the Obligations (whether or not then due), but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under this Article XII.
Section 12.6.Waivers .
To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest, and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender, or any other Person against either Borrower or any other Loan Party or other obligor, another guarantor, or any other Person.
Section 12.7.Limit on Recovery .
Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the right of recovery against each Guarantor under this Article XII shall not exceed $1.00 less than the lowest amount which would render such Guarantor’s obligations under this Article XII void or voidable under applicable law, including fraudulent conveyance law.
Section 12.8.Stay of Acceleration .
If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by either Borrower or other Loan Party or other obligor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or under any agreement relating to Hedging Obligations or Treasury Management Obligations, is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of either Borrower or such other Loan Party 
-116-

or obligor, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or under any agreement relating to Hedging Obligations or Treasury Management Obligations, shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent made at the request or otherwise with the consent of the Required Lenders.
Section 12.9.Benefit of Guarantors .
The Loan Parties are engaged in related businesses and integrated to such an extent that the financial strength and flexibility of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties has a direct impact on the success of each Guarantor.  Each Guarantor will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the extensions of credit hereunder, and each Guarantor acknowledges that this guarantee is necessary or convenient to the conduct, promotion and attainment of its business.
Section 12.10. Keepwell .
Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Guarantor to honor all of its obligations under this Article XII in respect of Hedging Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 12.10 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 12.10, or otherwise under this Section, voidable under applicable Requirements of Law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount).  The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 12.10 shall remain in full force and effect until discharged in accordance with Section 12.3.  Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 12.10 constitute, and this Section 12.10 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.
Section 12.11.Guarantor Covenants .
Each Guarantor shall take such action as the Borrowers are required by this Agreement to cause such Guarantor to take, and shall refrain from taking such action as the Borrowers are required by this Agreement to prohibit such Guarantor from taking.

    (c)    will permit Administrative Agent or its agents to inspect Debtor’s records pertaining to the Collateral at any reasonable time during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice and with such frequency as Administrative Agent may reasonably require;
    (d)    will pay all costs, including costs of title searches and filing financing statements and other documents in any public offices requested by Administrative Agent, and take such other action as Administrative Agent may reasonably deem advisable to perfect the Security Interest created by this Agreement, subject to the limitations of Section 6.9 of the Credit Agreement;
    (e)    will prevent any part of the Collateral from becoming an accession to other goods not covered by this Agreement;
    (f)    if a certificate of title is issued with respect to any of the Collateral, will, at the request of Administrative Agent following an Event of Default, promptly cause the Security Interest created under this Agreement to be duly noted and maintained on such certificate and will deliver such certificate to Administrative Agent;
    (g)    will, together with the delivery of each Compliance Certificate due under the Credit Agreement, notify the Administrative Agent of any additional intellectual property rights acquired or arising after the date hereof that have been registered with (or for which an application for registration has been made with) any United States federal Governmental Authority; provided any Debtor’s failure to do so shall not impair the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein; 
    (h)    agrees to, together with delivery of each Compliance Certificate due under the Credit Agreement, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a supplement to Schedule 7 to the Perfection Certificate promptly upon becoming aware of any Commercial Tort Claim of such Debtor arising after the date hereof (provided any Debtor’s failure to do so shall not impair the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein), the value of which is reasonably expected to exceed $1,000,000;
    (i)    agrees to, together with delivery of each Compliance Certificate due under the Credit Agreement, notify the Administrative Agent of any Investment Property acquired or maintained by the Debtors after the date hereof, and will submit a supplement to Schedule 5 to the Perfection Certificate to reflect any such additional rights (provided any failure to do so shall not impair the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein); 
8

    (j)    agrees to, together with delivery of each Compliance Certificate due under the Credit Agreement, notify the Administrative Agent of any Deposit Account opened or maintained by any Debtor after the date hereof and, together therewith, submit to the Administrative Agent a supplement to Schedule 6 to the Perfection Certificate to reflect such additional accounts (provided any failure to do so shall not impair the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein); and
    (k)    agrees to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such further agreements, assignments, instruments, and documents, and to do all such other things, as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate to assure the Administrative Agent its Security Interest hereunder in the Collateral.
5.    Default.  If an Event of Default as defined in the Credit Agreement shall occur and be continuing after any period of grace or cure provided therein, or if any default under this Agreement shall occur and not be cured within ten (10) days after written notice from Administrative Agent (each an “Event of Default” hereunder), then, and in any such event the Obligations shall, at the option of Administrative Agent, become immediately due and payable and Administrative Agent may take all of the actions or remedies specified in Section 6 hereof (“Remedies”) or otherwise available under applicable law or by agreement; provided, however, that the right of acceleration set forth herein does not in any way limit any right which Administrative Agent has under the Credit Agreement, or any other instrument, evidencing or describing or securing any portion of the Obligations to demand immediate payment thereof or to accelerate the maturity thereof or otherwise exercise remedies with respect thereto.
6.    Remedies.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Administrative Agent shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code of any applicable jurisdiction and such other rights and remedies as may be available under other applicable law.  Administrative Agent may collect all accounts and proceeds of the Collateral directly, in the name of Administrative Agent or any Debtor.  If requested by Administrative Agent, Debtors will assemble the Collateral and make it available to Administrative Agent at a reasonable place to be designated by Administrative Agent.  Each Debtor agrees that any notice by Administrative Agent of the sale or disposition of the Collateral or any other intended action hereunder, whether required by the Code or otherwise, shall constitute reasonable notice to Debtors if the notice is mailed by regular or certified mail, postage prepaid, at least ten (10) days before the action to be taken, to the Debtors at Debtors’ address specified in the introductory paragraph hereof, or to any other address which Debtors have specified in writing to Administrative Agent as the address as to which notices shall be given.  Subject to Section 11.3 of the Credit Agreement, each Debtor also agrees to pay all costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in enforcing this Agreement, realizing upon any Collateral and collecting any Obligations (including reasonable attorneys’ fees whether or not suit is brought and whether or not incurred in connection with trial, appeals or bankruptcy action) and each Debtor shall be liable for any deficiencies in the event the proceeds of the disposition of the Collateral do not satisfy the Obligations in full.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the right of recovery against any Debtor under this Agreement (other than a Borrower to which this limitation shall not apply) shall not exceed $1.00 less than the lowest amount that would render such Debtor’s obligations under this Agreement void or voidable under applicable law, including fraudulent conveyance law.
9

Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, with respect to the Collateral of any Debtor, the Administrative Agent’s right to exercise voting or proxy rights, transfer or register such Collateral pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to any required prior consent, approval, authorization or other required action of the Applicable Insurance Regulatory Authority or other applicable Governmental Authority.
7.    Miscellaneous.
    (a)    Each Debtor hereby irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent (or its designee) at Debtors’ expense to file any financing statements and amendments thereto relating to the Collateral (without such Debtor’s signature thereon or further authorization from such Debtor) which Administrative Agent deems reasonably appropriate and such filings may indicate the Collateral as “all assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired” or words of similar meaning or such other description as the Administrative Agent may determine. Each Debtor appoints Administrative Agent as such Debtor’s attorney-in-fact to file any such financing statements in such Debtor’s name and to perform all other acts which Administrative Agent reasonably deems appropriate to perfect and to continue perfection of the Security Interest.
    (b)    Each Debtor hereby irrevocably consents to any lawful and commercially reasonable act by Administrative Agent or its agents in entering upon any premises for the purposes of either (i) inspecting records of such Debtor pertaining to the Collateral, or (ii) taking possession of the Collateral after any Event of Default.  Each Debtor hereby waives its right to assert against Administrative Agent or its agents any claim based upon trespass or any similar cause of action for entering upon any premises where the Collateral may be located; provided, however, that such Debtor shall not be deemed to have waived any claim which such Debtor may have for actual, compensable damage to such Debtor’s property caused directly by such entry.
    (c)    Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Debtor authorizes Administrative Agent to collect and apply against the Obligations any insurance proceeds payable on account of the loss of any of the Collateral and appoints Administrative Agent as such Debtor’s attorney-in-fact to endorse any check or draft representing such proceeds or refund; provided, that in the absence of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall endorse any such insurance proceeds over to such Debtor.
    (d)    Upon any Debtor’s failure to perform any of its duties hereunder, Administrative Agent may, but it shall not be obligated to, perform any of such duties and the Debtors shall forthwith upon demand reimburse Administrative Agent for any actual expenses reasonably incurred by Administrative Agent in so doing.  All such sums advanced by Administrative Agent shall be deemed obligations of Debtors secured hereby. No such performance of any covenant or agreement by the Administrative Agent on behalf of a Debtor, and no such advancement or expenditure therefor, shall relieve any Debtor of any default under the terms of this Agreement or in any way obligate any Secured Creditor to take any further or future action with respect thereto.
10

    (e)    No delay or omission by Administrative Agent in exercising any right hereunder or with respect to any Obligations shall operate as a waiver of that or any other right, and no single or partial exercise or any right shall preclude Administrative Agent from any other or further exercise of the right or the exercise of any other right or remedy.  Administrative Agent may cure any Event of Default by Debtors in any commercially reasonable manner without waiving the Event of Default so cured and without waiving any other prior or subsequent Event of Default by Debtors. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing, signed by the party against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced and then only to the extent specifically stated.  All rights and remedies of Administrative Agent under this Agreement and under the Code shall be deemed cumulative.
    (f)    Administrative Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral to the extent required by law; provided, however, that Debtors shall have the sole responsibility for taking any steps to preserve rights against all prior parties to any instrument or chattel paper in Administrative Agent’s possession as Collateral or as proceeds of the Collateral.  Each Debtor waives notice of dishonor and protest of any instrument constituting Collateral at any time held by Administrative Agent on which such Debtor is in any way liable and waives notice of any other action taken by Administrative Agent with respect thereto.
    (g)    Upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default hereunder, Administrative Agent may demand, collect and sue for all proceeds (either in a Debtor’s name or Administrative Agent’s name at the Administrative Agent’s option), with the right to enforce, compromise, settle or discharge any proceeds, in such manner as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate.  Administrative Agent may (and in the undertaking thereof may exercise all rights granted a secured party under the Code with respect thereto), (i) notify all Account debtors and direct them to make all payments of Accounts directly to Administrative Agent, (ii) sign such Debtor’s name on verifications of Accounts and other Collateral, and (iii) collect, hold and apply the proceeds of each Account, Payment Intangible and General Intangible to the payment of the Obligations, in such order and manner as Administrative Agent may elect.  For such purpose, each Debtor appoints Administrative Agent as such Debtor’s attorney-in-fact to endorse such Debtor’s name on all checks, commercial paper and other instruments pertaining to the proceeds.
    (h)    Each Debtor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent as its proxy and attorney in fact, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, with respect to its Investment Property and other Collateral, including the right to vote such Investment Property and other Collateral, with full power of substitution to do so, and including the right to exercise all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies to which a holder of such Investment Property would be entitled, and to endorse a Debtor’s name on any assignments, stock powers or other instruments of transfer; provided, that the Administrative agent may not exercise any rights under this clause (h) unless it has given the relevant Debtor at least one (1) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to exercise such rights.
11

    (i)    Subject to the occurrence of the Termination Conditions, for the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise rights and remedies hereunder, at such time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default hereunder, as the Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Debtor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable (but terminable in accordance with this clause (i)), non-exclusive license and right to use, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all of such Debtor’s patents, patent applications, patent licenses, trademarks, trademark registrations, trademark licenses, trade names, trade styles, copyrights, copyright licenses, copyright applications, copyright registrations, and similar intangibles that constitute the Collateral (except to the extent prohibited by the terms of any license or other contract with an unaffiliated third party that is applicable to such Collateral) in connection with any foreclosure or other realization by the Administrative Agent on all or any part of the Collateral to the extent permitted by law.  The license and right granted the Administrative Agent hereby shall be without any royalty or fee or charge whatsoever.
    (j)    The terms “Administrative Agent” and “Debtor” as used in this agreement include the successors or permitted assigns of those parties.
    (k)    This Agreement may not be modified or amended nor shall any provision of it be waived except pursuant to the terms of Section 11.2 of the Credit Agreement.
    (l)    This Agreement shall be construed under the Code, as adopted in the State of New York and otherwise governed by the laws of the State of New York.
    (m)    This Agreement is a continuing agreement which shall remain in force until the Termination Conditions have been satisfied.  The Security Interest herein created and provided for stand as direct and primary security for the Obligations of the Borrowers arising under or otherwise relating to the Credit Agreement as well as for the other Obligations secured hereby.  No application of any sums received by the Secured Creditors in respect of the Collateral or any disposition thereof to the reduction of the Obligations or any part thereof shall in any manner entitle any Debtor to any right, title or interest in or to the Obligations or any collateral or security therefor, whether by subrogation or otherwise, unless and until the Termination Conditions have been satisfied.  Each Debtor acknowledges and agrees that the Security Interest hereby created and provided is absolute and unconditional and shall not in any manner be affected or impaired by any acts of omissions whatsoever of any Secured Creditor or any other holder of any Obligations, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Security Interest hereof shall not be impaired by any acceptance by any Secured Creditor or any other holder of any Obligations of any other security for or guarantors upon any of the Obligations or by any failure, neglect or omission on the part of any Secured Creditor or any other holder of any of the Obligations to realize upon or protect any of the Obligations or any collateral or security therefor.  The Security Interest hereof shall not in any manner be impaired or affected by (and the Secured Creditors, without notice to anyone, are hereby authorized to make from time to time) any sale, pledge, surrender, compromise, settlement, release, renewal, extension, indulgence, alteration, substitution, exchange, change in, modification or 
12

disposition of any of the Obligations or of any collateral or security therefor, or of any guaranty thereof, or of any instrument or agreement setting forth the terms and conditions pertaining to any of the foregoing.  The Secured Creditors may at their discretion at any time grant credit to the Borrowers without notice to the other Debtors in such amounts and on such terms as the Secured Creditors may elect without in any manner impairing the lien and security interest created and provided for.  In order to realize hereon and to exercise the rights granted the Administrative Agent hereunder and under applicable law, there shall be no obligation on the part of the Administrative Agent at any time to first resort for payment to any Borrower or any other Debtor or to any guaranty of the Obligations or any portion thereof or to resort to any other collateral, security, property, liens or any other rights or remedies whatsoever, and the Administrative Agent shall have the right to enforce this Agreement against any Debtor or its Collateral irrespective of whether or not other proceedings or steps seeking resort to or realization upon or from any of the foregoing are pending. 
    (n)    Each Debtor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and the Security Interests created hereunder in the Collateral of such Debtor shall be automatically released upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement as a result of which such Debtor ceases to be a Loan Party.  The Security Interests in any Collateral that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition not prohibited by the terms of the Loan Documents to any Person other than a Borrower shall be automatically released upon the consummation of such transaction.
    (o)    Upon termination of this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall return all original collateral within two (2) Business Days thereof and take all other steps reasonably requested (but at Debtors’ cost) by Debtors to release its Security Interest, including the filing of any notices of such release.
    (p)    This Agreement shall constitute additional security and rights in favor of Administrative Agent and shall not be deemed to diminish or reduce any rights of Administrative Agent under any other instrument executed in connection therewith.
    (q)    Any power of attorney granted to Administrative Agent under this Agreement is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until the termination of this Agreement.
    (r)    This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties thereto on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy or by email, in pdf format), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.   Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or by email, in pdf format, shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
13

    (s)    Al notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be given to the applicable party as set forth in Section 11.1 of the Credit Agreement.
    (t)    Any provision of this held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability without affecting the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
8.    Waiver of Jury Trial; Jurisdiction.  
    (a)    Each Debtor and Administrative Agent each hereby knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally, after opportunity for consultation with independent counsel, waives its right to trial by jury in any action or proceeding to enforce or defend any rights or obligations (i) under this Agreement, or (ii) arising from the financial relationship between the parties existing in conjunction with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or agreement delivered in connection herewith, or (iii) arising from any course of dealing, course of conduct, statement (verbal or written) or action of the parties in connection with such financial relationship.
    (b)    The parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submit, for themselves and their property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and of any state court and courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York state court or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, 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.
9.    Additional Debtor; Substitution of Debtor.  In the event the Administrative Agent shall at any time in its discretion permit a substitution of Debtors hereunder or a party shall wish to become a Debtor hereunder, such substituted or additional Debtor shall, upon executing an agreement in the form attached hereto as Schedule B, become a party hereto and be bound by all the terms and conditions hereof to the same extent as though such Debtor had originally executed this Agreement and, in the case of a substitution, in lieu of the Debtor being replaced.  Any such agreement shall contain information as to such Debtor necessary to update the Perfection Certificate with respect to it.  No such substitution shall be effective absent the written consent of the Administrative Agent nor shall it in any manner affect the obligations of the other Debtors hereunder.
14

10.    The Administrative Agent.  In acting under or by virtue of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to all the rights, authority, privileges, and immunities provided in the Credit Agreement, all of which provisions of said Credit Agreement (including Article X thereof) are incorporated by reference herein with the same force and effect as if set forth herein in their entirety.  The Administrative Agent hereby disclaims any representation or warranty to the Secured Creditors or any other holders of the Obligations concerning the perfection of the liens and security interests granted hereunder or in the value of any of the Collateral.
11.    Amendment and Restatement.  This Agreement shall become effective on the date hereof and shall supersede all provisions of the Prior Security Agreement as of such date. From and after the date hereof, all references made to the Prior Security Agreement in any Loan Document or in any other instrument or document shall, without more, be deemed to refer to this Agreement.
