Unless the Borrowers shall have notified the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, that the Borrowers intend to prepay such Swing Line Loans with funds other than the proceeds of a Revolver Loan or shall have requested in accordance with section 2.4 hereof the making of a LIBOR Loan in Dollars to make such prepayment, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have given notice to the Administrative Agent requesting the Lenders to make Revolver Loans which shall earn interest based on the Base Rate in an aggregate amount equal to the principal amount of such Swing Line Loans being prepaid plus interest thereon, and, subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions specified in Section 4.2, the Lenders shall, on such Swing Line Prepayment Date, make Revolver Loans, which shall earn interest based on the Base Rate, in an aggregate amount equal to the principal amount of such Swing Line Loans plus accrued interest thereon, the proceeds of which shall be

(v)    In the event the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated in accordance with the terms hereof, the Swing Line Commitment shall also be terminated automatically.  In the event the Borrowers reduce the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment of all of the Lenders to less than the Swing Line Commitment, the Swing Line Commitment shall immediately be reduced to an amount equal to the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment.  In the event the Borrowers reduce the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment to less than the outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Loans, the Borrowers shall immediately repay the amount by which the outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Loans exceeds the Swing Line Commitment as so reduced plus accrued interest thereon and any amounts owed under Section 2.18 hereof.
(vi)    In the event that the Borrowers shall fail to repay to the Swing Line Lender (x) the outstanding Swing Line Loans together with all accrued interest thereon on the Termination Date, (y) the amount of any Swing Line Loan due on any Swing Line Prepayment Date (including accrued interest thereon), or (z) any amounts required under subsection 2.1(c)(v), the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the unpaid amount of such Swing Line Loan (including accrued interest thereon) and of such Lender’s respective participation therein in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such amount.  Each Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent for payment to the Swing Line Lender an amount equal to its respective participation therein (including, without limitation, its pro rata share of accrued but unpaid interest thereon, provided that the interest rate payable by the Lenders shall not exceed the Base Rate), in same day funds, at the office of the Administrative Agent specified in such notice.  If such notice is delivered by the Administrative Agent by 11:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, each Lender shall make funds available to the Administrative Agent on that Business Day.

In the event that any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s participation in such unpaid amount as provided herein, the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation for each day during the period between the Business Day such payment is due in accordance with the terms of this subsection 2.1(c)(vi) and the date on which such Lender makes available its participation in such unpaid amount.  The failure of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent its Commitment Percentage of any 

such unpaid amount shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent its Commitment Percentage of such unpaid amount on the Business Day such payment is due in accordance with the terms of this subsection 2.1(c)(vi).  The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under this subsection 2.1(c)(vi) with respect to the unpaid amount of any Swing Line Loan, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of all payments received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers in repayment of such Swing Line Loan when such payments are received; provided, however,  that in the event that any payment received by the Lenders shall be required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender, any Lender receiving any portion of such payment shall be required to return to the Swing Line Lender such portion thereof previously distributed to it.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under this Section 2.1(c)(vi) shall have a direct right to repayment of such amounts from the Borrowers subject to the procedures for repaying Lenders set forth in this Section 2.1(c)(vi) and the provisions of Section 9.8.

Swing Line Loans made pursuant to this subsection 2.1(c)(vii) in accordance with the provisions of the Cash Management Agreements shall (u) be subject to the limitations as to aggregate amount set forth in subsection 2.1(c)(i), (v) not be subject to the limitations as to individual amount set forth in subsection 2.1(c)(i), (w) be payable by the Borrowers, both as to principal and interest, at the times set forth in the Cash Management Agreements (but in no event later than the Termination Date), (x) not be made at any time after the Swing Line Lender has written notice of the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (y) if not repaid by the Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of the Cash Management Agreements, be subject to each Lender’s obligation to purchase participating interests therein pursuant to subsection 2.1(c)(vi), and (z) except as provided in the foregoing subsections (v) through (z), be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Section 2.1(c).
(viii)    The Borrowers hereby jointly and severally indemnify the Swing Line Lender, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except any of the foregoing that results from the indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Section 2.1(c) or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.
2.2    Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Loans.  Each Lender shall be obligated to participate in each request for Revolver Loans pursuant to Section 2.4 in accordance with its Commitment Percentage.  The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several.  The 

failure of any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall not affect the obligations of the Borrowers to any other party hereunder, nor shall any other party be liable for the failure of any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder.  The Lenders shall have no obligation to make Revolver Loans or Swing Line Loans on or after the Termination Date.
2.3    Notes. 
(a)    The Revolver Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrowers, substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1, with appropriate insertions as to payee, date and principal amount (a “Revolver Note”), in a principal amount equal to the amount of the initial Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender; provided, however, that the principal amount of each Revolver Loan made in an Optional Currency shall be paid by the Borrowers in such Optional Currency.  Each Lender is hereby authorized to record the date, currency, Type and amount of each Revolver Loan made by such Lender, each continuation thereof, each conversion of all or a portion thereof to another Type, the date and amount of each payment or prepayment of principal thereof and, in the case of LIBOR Loans, the length of each Interest Period with respect thereto, on the schedule annexed to and constituting a part of its Revolver Note and in its internal records, and any such recordation shall constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded, provided, that the failure of any Lender to make such recordation (or any error in such recordation) shall not affect the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder or under such Revolver Note.  Each Revolver Note shall (a) be stated to mature on the Termination Date and (b) provide for the payment of interest in accordance with Sections 2.9 and 2.10.
(b)    The Swing Line Loans shall be evidenced by the Swing Line Note, and in a principal amount equal to the amount of the Swing Line Commitment.  The Swing Line Lender is hereby authorized to record the date, Type and amount of each Swing Line Loan made by such Lender and the date and amount of each payment or prepayment of principal thereof on the schedule annexed to and constituting a part of the Swing Line Note and in its internal records, and any such recordation shall constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded, provided, that the failure of the Swing Line Lender to make such recordation (or any error in such recordation) shall not affect the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder or under the Swing Line Note.  The Swing Line Note shall (a) be stated to mature on the Termination Date and (b) provide for the payment of interest in accordance with Sections 2.9 and 2.10.
2.4    Procedure for Revolver Loans. 
(a)    Except as otherwise provided herein, the Borrowers may from time to time prior to the Termination Date request the Lenders to make Revolver Loans by delivering to the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, (i) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of Loans in Dollars to which the LIBOR Rate applies and four (4) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of Loans in an Optional Currency and (ii) the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of a Loan to which the Base Rate applies, of a duly completed Notice of Borrowing or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing, it being understood that the Administrative Agent may rely on the authority of any 

individual making such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation.  Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the proposed Borrowing Date; (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the proposed Revolver Loans (expressed in the currency in which such Loans shall be funded) comprising each Tranche, the Dollar Equivalent amount of which shall be in integral multiples of $100,000 and not less than $3,000,000 or, if less, the maximum amount available under the Revolving Credit Commitments (or such other minimums and increments as shall be agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers’ Representative); (iii) whether the LIBOR Rate or Base Rate shall apply to the proposed Loans comprising the applicable Tranche; (iv) the currency in which such Loans shall be funded if the Borrowers are electing the LIBOR Rate, (v) in the case of a Tranche to which the LIBOR Rate applies, the Interest Period for the proposed Loans comprising such Tranche, and (vi) the amount of such Loans requested to be made for the account of one or more Foreign Borrowers with the name of each such Foreign Borrower.
(b)    The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receipt by it of a Notice of Borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.4, notify the Lenders of its receipt of such Notice of Borrowing specifying:  (i) the proposed Borrowing Date and the time and method of disbursement of the Revolver Loans requested thereby; (ii) the amount, currency, and Type of each such Revolver Loan and the applicable Interest Period (if any); and (iii) the apportionment among the Lenders of such Revolver Loans as determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.2.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender shall remit the principal amount of each Revolver Loan in the requested currency (or, in the case of Optional Currency Loans, in Dollars if so requested by a Lender and agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office (or, with respect to Revolver Loans in an Optional Currency, such other Lending Office as the Administrative Agent shall from time to time notify such Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m., Philadelphia time (or, with respect to Revolver Loans in an Optional Currency, such other time as the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders), on the Borrowing Date requested by the Borrowers in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent.  Such borrowing will then be made available to the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent crediting the account of the Company on the books of the office specified in Section 9.2 (or, with respect to Loans in an Optional Currency, the applicable Lending Office of the Administrative Agent) with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of such borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available in accordance with this subsection 2.4(b) and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers on such date a corresponding amount.  If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have made such Lender’s pro rata portion of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrowers (without prejudice to the Borrowers’ rights against such Lender) severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Revolver Loans comprising 

such borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate (or, for payments in an Optional Currency, the Overnight Rate) and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.  If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Revolver Loan as part of such borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.
(c)    If in a Notice of Borrowing no election as to the (i) Type of Loan is specified in any such notice, then the requested Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan (unless such requested Loan is in an Optional Currency) and (ii) currency of such Loan is specified in any such notice, then the requested Loan shall be in Dollars.  If a LIBOR Loan is requested but no Interest Period with respect to such Loan is specified in any such notice, then the Borrowers shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.
2.5    Conversion and Continuation Options.  The Borrowers shall have the right at any time upon prior irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (i) not later than 12:00 noon, Philadelphia time, one (1) Business Day prior to conversion, to convert any LIBOR Loan in Dollars to a Base Rate Loan, (ii) not later than 11:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, three (3) Business Days prior to conversion or continuation, to convert any Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan in Dollars or to continue any LIBOR Loan in Dollars as a LIBOR Loan in Dollars for any additional Interest Period and (iii) not later than 11:00 a.m. Philadelphia time, four (4) Business Days prior to continuation, to continue any LIBOR Loan denominated in an Optional Currency as a LIBOR Loan in such currency for an additional Interest Period of one month, subject in each case to the following:
(a)    a LIBOR Loan may not be converted at a time other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto;
(b)    any portion of a Loan maturing or required to be repaid in less than one month may not be converted into or continued as a LIBOR Loan;
(c)    no LIBOR Loan (other than a LIBOR Loan denominated in an Optional Currency) may be continued as such and no Base Rate Loan may be converted to a LIBOR Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders have determined that such a continuation is not appropriate;
(d)    any portion of a LIBOR Loan that cannot be converted into or continued as a LIBOR Loan by reason of subsection 2.5(b) or 2.5(c) or as to which the Borrowers have failed to give notice of conversion or continuation automatically shall in the case of a LIBOR Loan denominated in an Optional Currency be prepaid on the last day of the Interest period in effect for such Loan (subject to the provisions of subsection 2.12(c)), or in the case of a LIBOR Loan in Dollars be converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period in effect for such Loan;
(e)    no LIBOR Loan denominated in an Optional Currency may be converted into a Base Rate Loan or converted into a LIBOR Loan denominated in another Optional Currency;

(f)    the provisions of subsection 2.13 limiting under certain circumstances the continuation of LIBOR Loans denominated in an Optional Currency; and
(g)    no Swing Line Loan may be a LIBOR Loan.
Each request by the Borrowers to convert or continue a Loan shall constitute a representation and warranty that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.  Accrued interest on a Loan (or portion thereof) being converted shall be paid by the applicable Borrower(s) at the time of conversion.  In connection with each such conversion or continuation requested by the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing or shall make such request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing, it being understood that the Administrative Agent may rely on the authority of any individual making such telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation.
2.6    Utilization of Commitments in Optional Currencies.  
(a)    The Administrative Agent will determine the Dollar Equivalent amount of (i) the outstanding and proposed Revolver Loans denominated in an Optional Currency as of each requested Borrowing Date, (ii) outstanding Revolver Loans denominated in an Optional Currency as of the end of each Interest Period for any such Loans, and (iii) Letter of Credit Obligations denominated in an Optional Currency as of the last Business Day of each month (each such date under clauses (i) through (iii), and any other date on which the Administrative Agent determines it is necessary or advisable to make such computation, in its sole discretion, is referred to as a “Computation Date”).  Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers’ Representative, each Loan and Reimbursement Obligation shall be repaid or prepaid in the same currency in which the Loan or Reimbursement Obligation was made.
(b)    If the Borrowers deliver a Notice of Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.5 requesting that the Lenders continue as a LIBOR Loan an outstanding Tranche of Revolver Loans denominated in an Optional Currency, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to continue such LIBOR Loan if any Lender delivers to the Administrative Agent a notice by 5:00 p.m., Philadelphia time, three (3) Business Days prior to effective date of such continuation that such Lender cannot provide or continue Revolver Loans in such Optional Currency because (i) the making, maintenance or funding of such Optional Currency Loan has been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or with any request or directive of any such Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of Law) or (ii) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in the relevant Optional Currency for the relevant Interest Period are not available to such Lender with respect to such Revolver Loan in the Relevant Interbank Market.  In the event the Administrative Agent timely receives a notice from a Lender pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent will notify the Borrowers no later than 12:00 noon, Philadelphia time, two (2) Business Days prior to the effective date of such continuation that the continuation of such Loans in such Optional Currency is not then available, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter 

notify the Lenders of the same.  If the Administrative Agent shall have so notified the Borrowers that any such continuation of Optional Currency Loans is not then available, any notice of continuation with respect thereto shall be deemed withdrawn, and such Optional Currency Loans shall be prepaid on the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Optional Currency Loans, subject to the provisions of subsection 2.12(c) and to the Borrowers’ right to reborrow in Dollars or in another Optional Currency pursuant to Section 2.4.
(c)    The Borrowers may deliver to the Administrative Agent a written request that Revolver Loans hereunder also be permitted to be made in any other lawful currency (other than Dollars), in addition to the currencies specified in the definition of “Optional Currency” herein, provided, that such currency must be freely traded in the offshore interbank foreign exchange markets, freely transferable, freely convertible into Dollars and available to the Lenders in the Relevant Interbank Market.  The Administrative Agent may grant or deny such request in its sole discretion.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the applicable Lenders of any such request and whether the Administrative Agent has granted or rejected such request. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers of the acceptance or rejection by the Administrative Agent of the Borrowers’ request.  The requested currency shall be approved as an Optional Currency hereunder only if the Administrative Agent and all Lenders approve the Borrowers’ request.  
(d)    The Administrative Agent may, with respect to notices by the Borrowers for Revolver Loans in an Optional Currency or voluntary prepayments of less than the full amount of an Optional Currency Tranche, engage in reasonable rounding of the Optional Currency amounts requested to be loaned or repaid; and, in such event, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of such rounded amounts and the Borrowers’ request or notice shall thereby be deemed to reflect such rounded amounts.
2.7    Fees. 
(a)    The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) at a rate per annum equal to the Commitment Fee Rate in effect from time to time on the average daily amount of the Unused Commitments during the preceding fiscal quarter (or shorter period commencing on the date hereof or ending on the Termination Date).  All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days and shall be paid in Dollars.  The Commitment Fees due to each Lender shall commence to accrue on the date hereof and shall cease to accrue on the Termination Date.  The Administrative Agent shall distribute the Commitment Fees among the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages. 
(b)    The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay the Administrative Agent, for its own account, administrative and other fees at the times and in the amounts set forth in the Fee Letter.
(c)    The foregoing fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders.  Once paid, none of the foregoing fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

2.8    Letter of Credit Subfacility. 
(a)    The Borrowers may request the issuance of a Letter of Credit by delivering to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender a completed Application and agreement for letters of credit in such form and with such other certificates, documents and information as such Issuing Lender may specify from time to time by no later than 10:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed to by such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent) in advance of the proposed date of issuance.  Each Letter of Credit (other than the Other Letters of Credit and any replacements thereof) shall be denominated in Dollars.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance on the agreements of the Lenders set forth in this Section 2.8, an Issuing Lender will issue a Letter of Credit, provided, that each Letter of Credit shall (A) have a maximum maturity of twelve (12) months from the date of issuance, and (B) in no event expire later than five (5) Business Day prior to the Termination Date, and provided further, that in no event shall (i) the amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations at any one time exceed the lesser of (x) $30,000,000, or (y) the Total Commitments minus the Dollar Equivalent amount of the outstanding principal amount of the Revolver Loans and Swing Line Loans or (ii) the sum of the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the outstanding principal amount of all Revolver Loans made by a Lender plus such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of Swing Line Loans and the Letter of Credit Obligations then outstanding exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment, and provided further that no Alternate Issuing Lender shall have any obligation hereunder to issue a Letter of Credit unless it otherwise consents in its sole discretion (provided that if a Lender elects not to issue a requested letter of credit, it shall promptly after a request therefor notify the Company and the Administrative Agent of such decision).  No Issuing Lender shall at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if (x) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbiter shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender from issuing the Letter of Credit or any Law applicable to such Issuing Lender, or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender, shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender with respect to the Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Lender is not compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such Issuing Lender in good faith deems material to it or (y) the issuance of the Letter of Credit would conflict with or cause such Issuing Lender or any Letter of Credit Participant to exceed, any limits imposed by any one or more policies of such Issuing Lender applicable to letters of credit generally.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection 2.8, the Lenders and the Borrowers hereby agree that an Issuing Lender may issue upon the Borrowers’ request, one or more Letter(s) of Credit which by its or their terms may be extended for additional periods of up to one year each provided that (i) the initial expiration date (or any subsequent expiration date) of each such Letter of Credit is not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Termination Date then in effect, and (ii) renewal of such Letters of Credit, at such Issuing Lender’s discretion, shall be available upon written request from the Borrowers to such Issuing Lender at least thirty (30) days (or such other time period as agreed by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and such 

Issuing Lender) before the date upon which notice of renewal is otherwise required.  Each standby Letter of Credit shall be subject either to the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time a Letter of Credit is issued (“UCP”) or the International Standby Practices (ISP98 International Chamber of Commerce Publication Number 590 (“ISP98”)), as determined by the applicable Issuing Lender, and each trade Letter of Credit issued under this Agreement shall be subject to the UCP, and in each case to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the Laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania without regard to its conflict of laws principles.
(b)    The Borrowers shall pay in Dollars (i) to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) computed at the Letter of Credit Fee Rate in effect from time to time on the daily average undrawn stated amount of each outstanding Letter of Credit and (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Issuing Lender a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum on the daily average undrawn stated amount of each outstanding Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender (including the Other Letters of Credit) (computed in each case on the basis of the actual number of days such Letters of Credit are outstanding in a year of 360 days), which amounts shall be payable quarterly in arrears commencing with the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December following the Closing Date and on the Termination Date.  The Borrowers shall also pay to each Issuing Lender in Dollars for the sole account of such Issuing Lender, such Issuing Lender’s then in effect customary fees and administrative expenses payable with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender as such Issuing Lender may generally charge or incur from time to time in connection with the issuance, maintenance, modification (if any), assignment or transfer (if any), negotiation, and administration of letters of credit.  Once paid, all of the above fees shall be nonrefundable under all circumstances.  The Administrative Agent shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, distribute to the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders all fees and commissions received by the Administrative Agent for their respective accounts pursuant to this subsection.  
(c)    (i)    Each Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each Letter of Credit Participant, and, to induce each Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each Letter of Credit Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from such Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such Letter of Credit Participant’s own account and risk, an undivided interest equal to such Letter of Credit Participant’s Commitment Percentage in such Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender hereunder (including the Other Letters of Credit) and the amount of each draft paid by such Issuing Lender thereunder.  Each Letter of Credit Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with each Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender for which such Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrowers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Letter of Credit Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender upon demand at such Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such Letter of Credit Participant’s Commitment Percentage of the amount of such draft or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed.  Any action taken or omitted by an Issuing Lender under or in connection with a Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create for such Issuing Lender any resulting liability to any Lender.

(ii)    If any amount required to be paid by any Letter of Credit Participant to an Issuing Lender pursuant to subsection 2.8(c)(i) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit is not paid to such Issuing Lender on the date such payment is due from such Letter of Credit Participant, such Letter of Credit Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (x) such amount, times (y) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate (or, for payments in an Optional Currency, the Overnight Rate), as quoted by such Issuing Lender, during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Issuing Lender, times (z) 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 such Issuing Lender submitted to any Letter of Credit Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this subsection shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
(iii)    Whenever, at any time after such Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Letter of Credit Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with subsection 2.8(c)(i), such Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrowers or otherwise, including by way of set‐off or proceeds of collateral applied thereto by such Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, such Issuing Lender will distribute to such Letter of Credit Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by an Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by such Issuing Lender, such Letter of Credit Participant shall return to such Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Lender to it plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such amounts are returned by such Lender to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect from time to time (or, for payments in an Optional Currency, the Overnight Rate).
(d)    (i)    Each Borrower jointly and severally agrees to reimburse an Issuing Lender in respect of a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender on each date on which a draft presented under such Letter of Credit is paid by such Issuing Lender for the amount of (i) such draft so paid and (ii) any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by such Issuing Lender in connection with such payment.  Each such payment shall be made to such Issuing Lender at its Principal Office in Dollars (except, with respect to Other Letters of Credit denominated in a currency other than Dollars, to the extent the Application for such Other Letter of Credit provides that payment shall be made in another currency) and in immediately available funds.
(ii)    Interest shall be payable on any and all amounts remaining unpaid by the Borrowers under this subsection from the date such amounts become payable (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) until payment in full at the rate which would be payable under Section 2.10 on any outstanding Base Rate Loans which were then overdue and shall be payable on demand by an Issuing Lender.
(e)    (i)    Subject to Section 2.22(a), the obligations of the Borrowers under this subsection 2.8 shall be joint and several.  The Borrowers also jointly and severally agree with each Issuing Lender that such Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and the 

Borrowers’ Reimbursement Obligations under subsection 2.8(d)(i) shall not be affected by, among other things (x) 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, provided, that reliance upon such documents by such Issuing Lender shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender or (y) any dispute between or among any Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or (z) any claims whatsoever of any Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee.
(ii)    An 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 such Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(iii)    Each Borrower jointly and severally agrees that any action taken or omitted by an Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding on such Borrower and shall not result in any liability of such Issuing Lender to such Borrower.
(f)    If any draft shall be presented for payment to an Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit, such Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Company of the date and amount thereof.  The responsibility of an 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 and any other obligation expressly imposed by the provisions of UCP or ISP98, as applicable to 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.
(g)    To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall apply.
(h)    Each Borrower agrees jointly and severally to be bound by the terms of each Application and the Issuing Lenders’ written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though such interpretations may be different from such Borrower’s own.  It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders shall not be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following the Borrowers’ instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto.  
(i)    Each Lender’s payment obligation under subsection 2.8(c) and the obligations of the Borrowers to reimburse an Issuing Lender upon a draw under a Letter of Credit, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable under any circumstances, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.8 under all circumstances, including the following circumstances:

(i)    any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender or any Borrower may have against such Issuing Lender, any other Lender, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever;
(ii)    any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit;
(iii)    the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which any Borrower or any Lender may have at any time against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), such Issuing Lender or any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between the Borrowers and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured);
(iv)    any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect even if such Issuing Lender has been notified thereof;
(v)    payment by such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit;
(vi)    any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Borrowers; 
(vii)    any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any of the Borrowers;
(viii)    the occurrence or continuance of an insolvency proceeding with respect to any of the Borrowers; 
(ix)    the fact that an Event of Default or a Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
(x)    the fact that the Termination Date shall have passed or this Agreement or the Commitments hereunder shall have been terminated; and
(xi)    any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.
(j)    In addition to amounts payable as provided in Section 9.5, the Borrowers hereby agree to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless each Issuing Lender, the Agents and the Lenders from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel) which an Issuing Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit, other than as a result of (A) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent 

jurisdiction or (B) subject to the following clause (ii), the wrongful dishonor by such Issuing Lender of a proper demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit, or (ii) the failure of such Issuing Lender to honor a drawing under any such Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority (all such acts or omissions herein called “Governmental Acts”).
(k)    As between the Borrowers and an Issuing Lender, the Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, no Issuing Lender shall be responsible for:  (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for, issuance of or drawing under any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if such Issuing Lender shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of the Borrowers against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among the Borrowers and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, facsimile, cable, telex, electronic transmission or otherwise; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuing Lender, including any Governmental Acts, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of such Issuing Lender’s rights or powers hereunder.
In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by an Issuing Lender under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not create any liability of such Issuing Lender to the Borrowers or any Lender.
(l)    (i)    At least five Business Days prior to the issuance of a Letter of Credit by an Alternate Issuing Lender (or such shorter period as approved by the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender in their sole discretion), the Borrowers shall confirm by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent (an “Alternate Issuing Lender L/C Notice”) and such Alternate Issuing Lender the intended issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit and the amount of such requested Letter Credit.  Not later than 10:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, on the second Business Day following its receipt of an Alternate Issuing Lender L/C Notice, the Administrative Agent shall determine and shall notify the Alternate Issuing Lender and the Company whether the issuance of the requested Letter of Credit would be permitted under the 

provisions of the second proviso to the third sentence of Section 2.8(a) hereof.  If the Administrative Agent notifies such Alternate Issuing Lender and the Borrowers that such issuance would be so permitted, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Alternate Issuing Lender may, on the requested date of issuance of such Letter of Credit, issue such Letter of Credit in accordance with such Alternate Issuing Lender’s usual and customary business practices.  Such Alternate Issuing Lender shall give the Administrative Agent prompt written notice, or telephonic notice confirmed promptly thereafter in writing, of the issuance of a Letter of Credit.
(ii)    No Alternate Issuing Lender may extend or amend any Letter of Credit unless the foregoing requirements are met as though the Borrowers were requesting such Alternate Issuing Lender to issue a new Letter of Credit.
(iii)    Promptly after issuing any Letter of Credit, an Alternate Issuing Lender shall provide a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Administrative Agent.  In addition, no later than the third Business Day following the end of each month, each Alternate Issuing Lender shall provide the Administrative Agent a schedule of each Letter of Credit issued by it, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, setting forth therein (a) the date of issuance, (b) the account party, (c) the original face amount, (d) the amount(s) theretofore drawn, if any, thereunder, (e) the expiration date, (f) the date and amounts of any reductions, draws and payments in respect of draws and (g) the reference number, of each such Letter of Credit outstanding at any time during the preceding month.
2.9    Interest Rates and Payment Dates. 
(a)    Subject to the provisions of Section 2.10, each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be) at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.  
(b)    Subject to the provisions of Section 2.10, each LIBOR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days, provided that, for Revolver Loans made in an Optional Currency as to which market practice differs from the foregoing, in accordance with such market practice) equal to the LIBOR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such LIBOR Loan plus the Applicable Margin.
(c)    Subject to the provisions of Section 2.10, interest on each Swing Line Loan shall be payable at the rate (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) provided in Section 2.1(c); provided, that if a Swing Line Loan bears interest at the Base Rate, interest shall be computed in accordance with subsection 2.9(a) above.
(d)    Interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable to such Loan; provided that, (i) interest accruing on overdue amounts pursuant to Section 2.10 shall be payable on demand as provided in such Section and (ii) with respect to any Swing Line Loan made under the Cash Management Agreements, interest on such Swing Line Loans shall be payable as provided in subsection 2.1(c)(vii).  The LIBOR Rate and the Base Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e)    Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement (including this Section 2.9 and Section 2.10) shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error.  At the request of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrowers a statement showing the quotations used by it in determining any interest rate pursuant to subsections 2.9(a) and (b).
(f)    Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrowers may select different interest rates and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to Revolver Loans comprising different Tranches and may convert to or renew one or more interest rates with respect to all or any portion of Revolver Loans comprising any Tranche, provided, that there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than six (6) Tranches in the aggregate (excluding Swing Line Loans and with  Base Rate Loans being considered, to the extent any such Loans are outstanding, one Tranche).
(g)    If at any time the designated rate applicable to any Loan made by any Lender exceeds such Lender’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest lawful rate.  Interest on the principal amount of each Loan made in an Optional Currency shall be paid by the Borrowers in such Optional Currency.
2.10    Default Interest.  Upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default under subsection 7.1(a) or (f), the outstanding principal amount of the Loans and, to the extent permitted by law, accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other amount payable hereunder (after as well as before judgment), shall bear interest from the date of such occurrence at a rate per annum which is  in the case of principal of the Loans, the rate that would then be applicable thereto pursuant to Section 2.9 plus 2.0% or  in the case of interest or fees or other amounts, the rate which would be payable on any outstanding Base Rate Loans which were then overdue.  Upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default other than under subsection 7.1(a) or (f), the outstanding principal amount of the Loans and, to the extent permitted by law, accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other amounts payable hereunder, shall bear interest (after as well as before judgment) from the date that the Administrative Agent, at the written request of the Required Lenders, shall send notice to the Company of the application of the default rate at a rate per annum which is (a) in the case of principal of the Loans, the rate that would then be applicable thereto pursuant to Section 2.9 plus 2.0% or (b) in the case of interest or fees or other amounts, the rate which would be payable on any outstanding Base Rate Loans which were then overdue.  The Borrowers acknowledge that such increased interest rate reflects, among other things, the fact that such Loans or other amounts have become a substantially greater risk given their default status and that the Lenders are entitled to additional compensation for such risk.  Default interest payable on any Loans hereunder made in an Optional Currency shall be paid by the Borrowers in such Optional Currency.  
2.11    Pro Rata Treatment of Loans and Payments; Commitment Fees. 
(a)    Except as required under Section 2.13 or any amendment pursuant to Section 2.26, each borrowing by the Borrowers hereunder, each payment or prepayment of principal of the Loans (other than the Swing Line Loans), each payment of interest on such 

Loans, each payment of Commitment Fees and Letter of Credit Fees, and each reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments, shall be made pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages.
(b)    Except as provided in subsection 2.1(c), each borrowing of a Swing Line Loan, each payment or prepayment of principal of a Swing Line Loan, each payment of interest on the Swing Line Loans and each reduction of the Swing Line Commitment shall be for the sole account of the Swing Line Lender.
(c)    Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender’s portion of any borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such borrowing to the next higher or lower whole Dollar or other currency amount.
2.12    Payments. 
(a)    The Borrowers shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any borrowing or any fees or other amounts) hereunder not later than 11:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, on the date when due to the Administrative Agent at its offices set forth in Section 9.2 for the ratable accounts of the Lenders in Dollars in immediately available funds; provided that, any payments of principal of or interest on a Revolver Loan in an Optional Currency shall be made not later than the time that the Borrowers shall be notified by the Administrative Agent for payments with respect to such Optional Currency, on the date due in immediately available funds at the Lending Office at which such Revolver Loan was made in such funds as may then be customary for the settlement of international transactions in such other Optional Currency.  Such payments shall be made without set-off or counterclaim of any kind.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute such amounts to the applicable Lenders in immediately available funds.  The Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s statement of account, ledger or other relevant record shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as the statement of the amount of principal of and interest on the Loans and other amounts owing under this Agreement (including the Equivalent Amounts of the applicable currencies where such computations are required). 
(b)    Whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any borrowing or any fees or other amounts) hereunder (other than payments on LIBOR Loans) shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, if applicable.  Whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any borrowing or any fees or other amounts) hereunder on a LIBOR Loan shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.
(c)    The entire amount of principal of and interest on any Revolver Loan made in an Optional Currency shall be repaid in the same Optional Currency in which such Revolver Loan was made, provided, however, that if it is impossible or illegal for the Borrowers to effect payment of a Revolver Loan in the Optional Currency in which such Revolver Loan was made, 

or if the Borrowers default in their obligations to do so, the Required Lenders may at their option permit such payment to be made (i) at and to a different location, subsidiary, affiliate or correspondent of the Administrative Agent, or (ii) in the Equivalent Amount of Dollars or (iii) in an Equivalent Amount of such other currency (freely convertible into Dollars) as the Required Lenders may solely at their option designate.  Upon any events described in (i) through (iii) of the preceding sentence, the Borrowers shall make such payment and the Borrowers agree to hold each Lender harmless from and against any loss incurred by any Lender arising from the cost to such Lender of any premium, any costs of exchange, the cost of hedging and covering the Optional Currency in which such Revolver Loan was originally made, and from any change in the value of Dollars, or such other currency, in relation to the Optional Currency that was due and owing.  Such loss shall be calculated for the period commencing with the first day of the Interest Period for such Revolver Loan and continuing through the date of payment thereof.  Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrowers hereunder, the Borrowers’ obligations under this subsection shall survive termination of this Agreement.
2.13    LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Deposits Not Available.
(a)    The Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in subsection 2.13(c) if on any date on which a LIBOR Rate would otherwise be determined, the Administrative Agent shall have determined that (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such LIBOR Rate or (ii) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the Relevant Interbank Market relating to the LIBOR Rate.
(b)    The Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in subsection 2.13(c) if at any time:
(i)    any Lender shall have determined that the making, maintenance or funding of any Revolver Loan to which a LIBOR Rate applies has been made unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or with any request or directive of any such Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of Law), or
(ii)    the Required Lenders shall have determined that the making, maintenance or funding of any Revolver Loan to which a LIBOR Rate applies has been made impracticable by compliance by such Lenders in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or with any request or directive of any such Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of Law), or
(iii)    any Lender shall have determined that such LIBOR Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of the establishment or maintenance of any such Loan, or
(iv)    any Lender shall have determined that after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in Dollars or in the Optional Currency (as applicable) for the relevant Interest Period for a Revolver Loan, to which a LIBOR Rate applies, respectively, are not available to such Lender, or to banks generally, in the interbank eurodollar market, or

(v)    the Administrative Agent shall have determined that a fundamental change has occurred in the foreign exchange or interbank markets with respect to any Optional Currency (including, without limitation, changes in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls, or
(vi)    the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender shall have determined that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that is unlawful, for it to (A) perform any of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to a Foreign Borrower, (B) to fund or maintain its participation in any Loan to a Foreign Borrower or (C) issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest or fees with respect to any Credit Extension to a Foreign Borrower.  
(c)    In the case of any event specified in subsection 2.13(a) above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Lenders and the Borrowers thereof, and in the case of an event specified in subsection 2.13(b) above, such Lender(s) shall promptly so notify the Administrative Agent and endorse a certificate to such notice as to the specific circumstances of such notice, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly send copies of such notice and certificate to the other Lenders and the Borrowers.  Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of (A) the Lenders, in the case of such notice given by the Administrative Agent, or (B) such Lender(s), in the case of such notice given by such Lender(s), to allow the Borrowers to select, convert to or renew a LIBOR Rate or select an Optional Currency (as applicable) shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall have later notified the Borrowers, or such Lender(s) shall have later notified the Administrative Agent, of the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender(s)’, as the case may be, determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist.  If at any time the Administrative Agent makes a determination under subsection 2.13(a) and the Borrowers have previously notified the Administrative Agent of their selection of, conversion to or renewal of a LIBOR Rate and such interest rate has not yet gone into effect, such notification shall be deemed to provide for selection of, conversion to or renewal of a Base Rate Loan to the extent permitted hereunder.  If any Lender notifies the Administrative Agent of a determination under subsection 2.13(b), the Borrowers shall, subject to the Borrowers’ indemnification obligations under subsection 2.18, as to any Revolver Loan of the Lender to which a LIBOR Rate applies, on the date specified in such notice either (i) as applicable, convert such Revolver Loan (if not denominated in an Optional Currency) to the Base Rate or select a different Optional Currency or Dollars, or (ii) prepay such Revolver Loan in accordance with Section 2.15.  Absent due notice from the Borrowers of conversion or prepayment, such Revolver Loan shall automatically be converted to the Base Rate upon such specified date unless such Revolver Loan is in an Optional Currency in which case such Revolver Loan shall be prepaid.  With respect to any determination under clause (vi) of Section 2.13(b), any obligation of any Lender or Issuing Lender to issue, maintain or fund any affected Credit Extension shall be suspended and, to the extent required by Law, cancelled.  Upon receipt of any notice of determination under clause (vi) of Section 2.13(b), the Borrowers shall (A) repay such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s participation in the Loans or other Obligations affected thereby on the last day of the Interest Period for each such Loan or other Obligation occurring after the Administrative Agent has notified the Borrowers’ Representative or, if earlier, the date specified 

by such Person in the notice delivered to the Administrative Agent (such specified date being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by applicable Law) and (B) take all reasonable actions requested by such Person to mitigate or avoid such illegality.  
2.14    Termination, Reduction and Increase of Revolving Credit Commitments.
(a)    The Revolving Credit Commitments and the Swing Line Commitment shall be automatically terminated on the Termination Date whereupon all Revolver Loans and Swing Line Loans and accrued interest thereon shall become due and payable, except as provided in Section 2.26 in respect of any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments.
(b)    Upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written (including facsimile) notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided, however, that (i) each partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 or in a whole multiple thereof, and (ii) the Revolving Credit Commitments may not be reduced or terminated if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolver Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Dollar Equivalent Facility Usage at such time would exceed the Total Commitments at such time.  Any notice to reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments under this Section 2.14(b) shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments in full delivered by the Borrowers may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or debt or equity issuances, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrowers (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.
(c)    Subject to Section 2.26, each reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages.  The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders on the date of each termination or reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments the Commitment Fees on the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments so terminated or reduced accrued to the date of such termination or reduction.
(d)    (i)    The Borrowers may by written notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders) request, from time to time the extension of one or more new Revolving Credit Commitments or one or more increases in the existing Revolving Credit Commitments (any such new or increased Revolving Credit Commitment, an “Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment”), in an aggregate amount not to exceed $100,000,000.  Each Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $5,000,000 and integral multiples thereof (or such lesser amount and/or multiples as may be agreed by the Borrowers’ Representative and the Administrative Agent).  Each notice delivered pursuant to this Section 2.14(d)(i) shall specify (I) the date (the “Increase Effective Date”) on which the Borrowers propose that the proposed Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than 10 Business Days after the date in which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent (unless otherwise consented to by the Administrative 

Agent in its discretion), (II) the total amount of the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments requested by the Borrowers and (III) the identity of the banks, financial institutions and other entities to whom the Borrowers propose that any portion of such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments be allocated and the amounts of such allocations, which banks, financial institutions or other entities may or may not be existing Lenders, but who shall be Eligible Assignees.  Any existing Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment.  Any proposed new Lender shall enter into an Accession Agreement pursuant to Section 2.14(d)(vi) (such additional Eligible Assignees becoming Lenders and any existing Lenders providing an Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment, collectively, the “Incremental Lenders”).
(ii)    An Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall become effective, as of the Increase Effective Date specified therefor; provided, that:
(I)    each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 shall be satisfied;
(II)    no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom or from the borrowings to be made on such Increase Effective Date and the use of proceeds thereof;
(III)    the Borrowers shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment, including a certificate dated the Increase Effective Date and executed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrowers’ Representative certifying that all the requirements set forth in this Section 2.14(d)(ii) have been satisfied; and
(IV)    the Administrative Agent, PNC as an Issuing Lender, and the Swing Line Lender, shall have consented to any Lender providing such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld).
(iii)    Except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers’ Representative in an Incremental Facility Amendment, the terms and conditions of the Revolver Loans made pursuant to any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall be identical to the terms and conditions of the existing Revolver Loans (including as to pricing and maturity, other than any upfront fees including upfront commitment, underwriting, syndication or other fees), and shall be part of the same Class of Loans and borrowings as the existing Revolver Loans.  
(iv)    On the Increase Effective Date, the Borrowers shall repay all Revolver Loans (together with any amounts due under Section 2.18 as a result of such payment) of each of the Lenders having a Revolving Credit Commitment prior to the Increase Date (the “Pre-Increase Revolving Lenders”) and reborrow a like amount of Revolver Loans from the Lenders (including any new Lender providing an Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment), according to their new Commitment Percentages after giving effect to such Incremental 

Revolving Credit Commitments.  The Administrative Agent may, to the extent the Administrative Agent considers it practicable, net payments to and borrowings from the same Lender.  In addition, on the Increase Effective Date for any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment, each of the Pre-Increase Revolving Lenders shall automatically and without any further action by any party be deemed to have assigned to the Lenders which are acquiring Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments on the Increase Effective Date (the “Post-Increase Revolving Lenders”), and the Post-Increase Revolving Lenders will automatically and without any further action by any party be deemed to have assumed and purchased from the Pre-Increase Revolving Lenders, such participation interest in the Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding on such Increase Effective Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such deemed assignments and assumptions, the Letter of Credit Obligations shall be held by each Pre-Increase Revolving Lender and each Post-Increase Revolving Lender ratably in accordance with its Commitment Percentage after giving effect to the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments.
(v)    The Incremental Revolver Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments established pursuant to this Section shall constitute Revolver Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
(vi)    The Borrowers and the Administrative Agent may, without the consent of any other Lender, enter into an amendment to this Agreement and any other Loan Document (each an “Incremental Facility Amendment”) to appropriately include any credit commitments contemplated by this Section 2.14(d), including to provide that any Incremental Revolver Loans shall share in the optional and mandatory prepayments and commitment reductions on the same basis as the then outstanding Revolver Loans.  Each Incremental Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder, shall become a party to this Agreement by completing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a duly executed accession agreement in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (an “Accession Agreement”), together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and on the Increase Effective Date Schedule I shall be deemed to have been amended to reflect the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments of such Incremental Lender as provided in such Accession Agreement.  
2.15    Prepayment of Loans.
(a)    The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay Loans in the currency or currencies in which such Loans were made, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (but in any event subject to subsection 2.18), upon prior written, telecopy or telephonic notice to the Administrative Agent given, in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, no later than 11:00 am., Philadelphia time, one (1) Business Day before any proposed prepayment, and in the case of Optional Currency Loans, no later than 11:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, four (4) Business Days before any such proposed prepayment (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent shall agree in its discretion).  In each case the notice shall specify the date, amount and currency of each such prepayment, whether the prepayment is of LIBOR Loans or Base Rate Loans, or a combination thereof, and, if a combination thereof, the amount allocable to each; provided, however, that each such partial prepayment shall be in the principal amount of at least (i) with respect to prepayments of Base Rate, $1,000,000 or in whole 

multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof, and (ii) with respect to prepayments of Revolver Loans in Dollars that bear interest at the LIBOR Rate, $3,000,000 or in whole multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof, and (iii) with respect to prepayment of Revolver Loans in an Optional Currency, the Dollar Equivalent of $3,000,000 or in whole multiples of the Dollar Equivalent of $100,000 in excess thereof (or, with respect to Revolver Loans in an Optional Currency, such other minimum and increments as the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall agree).
(b)    On the date of any termination or reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to Section 2.14, the Borrowers shall pay or prepay so much of the Loans as shall be necessary in order that the Dollar Equivalent Facility Usage at such time would not exceed the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments at such time.
(c)    If on any Computation Date the amount of the Dollar Equivalent Facility Usage is greater than the Total Commitments at such time, as applicable, as a result of a change in exchange rates between one or more Optional Currencies and Dollars, then the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers of the same and the Borrowers shall within two (2) Business Days after receiving such notice prepay so much of the Loans as shall be necessary in order that the Dollar Equivalent Facility Usage shall not exceed the Total Commitments after giving effect to such prepayments.  If on any Computation Date the amount of the Exposure of any Lender is greater than the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender at such time as a result of change in exchange rates between one or more Optional Currencies and Dollars, then the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers of the same and the Borrowers shall within two (2) Business Days after receiving such notice prepay so much of the Loans as shall be necessary in order that the Exposure of such Lender shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender after giving effect to such prepayments.
(d)    All prepayment notices shall be irrevocable; provided that a prepayment notice for Payment in Full delivered by the Borrowers may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or debt or equity issuances, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrowers (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.  The principal amount of the Loans for which a prepayment notice is given, together with interest on such principal amount except with respect to Base Rate Loans, shall be due and payable on the date specified in such prepayment notice as the date on which the proposed prepayment is to be made in the currency in which such Loan was made.  If the Borrowers prepay a Revolver Loan in Dollars, all outstanding Swing Line Loans shall (unless the Swing Line Lender shall otherwise agree) first be repaid from the proceeds thereof.  If the Borrowers fail to specify the applicable Tranche which the Borrowers are prepaying, the prepayment shall, subject to the immediately prior sentence, be applied to Base Rate Loans, then to Dollar LIBOR Loans and then to Optional Currency Loans, with payments applied to LIBOR Loans being applied in order of next maturing Interest Periods.  Any prepayment hereunder shall be subject to the Borrowers’ obligation to indemnify the Lenders under Section 2.18.
(e)    Upon receipt of any notice of prepayment, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof.

(f)    Amounts prepaid pursuant to this Section (other than subsection (b) hereof) may be reborrowed, subject to the terms and conditions hereof.
2.16    Increased Costs. 
(a)    If any Change in Law shall:
(i)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement, which is addressed separately in this Section 2.16) or any 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, any Issuing Lender or the Relevant 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, such 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, such Issuing Lender or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, after the request of such Lender, such Issuing Lender or other Recipient (subject to Section 2.16(e)), the Borrowers will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b)    If any Lender or any Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Issuing Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or such 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 such Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans or other extensions of credit extended under any Loan Document made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or any extensions of credit under any Loan Document held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or 

amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c)    Each Lender and each Issuing Lender agrees that it will use reasonable efforts in order to avoid or to minimize, as the case may be, the payment by the Borrowers of any additional amount under subsections 2.16(a) or (b); provided, however, that no Lender or Issuing Lender shall be obligated to incur any expense, cost or other amount in connection with utilizing such reasonable efforts.
(d)    Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Lender to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital (“Costs”) shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be under any obligation to compensate any Lender or Issuing Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) above with respect to Costs with respect to any period prior to the date that is three months prior to the date such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, knew or should reasonably have been expected to be aware of (i) the circumstances giving rise to such Costs, (ii) the fact that such circumstances would in fact result in a claim for increased compensation by reason of such Costs, and (iii) the exact amount of such Costs; provided further that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any Costs arising out of the retroactive application of any law, regulation, rule, guideline or directive as aforesaid within such three month period.  The protection of this Section shall be available to each Lender and each Issuing Lender regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the change in any guideline, directive or other Law that shall have occurred or been imposed.
(e)    A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender, Issuing Lender or other Recipient or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraphs (a) and (b) above and setting forth with reasonable detail the calculation of such amounts and delivered to the Borrowers’ Representative shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender, Issuing Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.
(f)    The Borrowers shall pay to each Lender (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including eurocurrency funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement under Regulation D or under any similar, successor or analogous requirement of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor) or any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of LIBOR Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), which in 

each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan; provided that in each case the Borrowers shall have received at least ten days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or costs from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice ten (10) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or costs shall be due and payable ten (10) days from receipt of such notice.
2.17    Taxes. 
(a)    For purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Lender and the term “applicable Law” includes FATCA.
(b)    Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law.  If any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(c)    The Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(d)    The Borrowers shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers’ Representative by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(e)    Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of any of the Borrowers to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.6(f) 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 Section 2.17(e).
(f)    As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.17, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(g)    (i)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrowers’ Representative and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers’ Representative or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers’ Representative or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrowers’ Representative or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers’ Representative or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.17(g)(ii)(A), 2.17(g)(ii)(B) and (ii)(C) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.  
(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(A)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrowers’ Representative and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers’ Representative or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(B)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers’ Representative and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the 

reasonable request of the Borrowers’ Representative or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(I)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(II)    executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(III)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.17(g)(A) to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-BEN-E; or
(IV)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.17(g)(B) or Exhibit 2.17(g)(C), IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.17(g)(D) on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers’ Representative and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers’ Representative or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)    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’ Representative and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers’ Representative 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’ Representative 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 (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrowers’ Representative and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.  In addition, the Lenders shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, with respect to Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority other than the United States of America, similar forms, if available (or the information that would be contained in similar forms if such forms are available), to the forms which are required to be provided under this subsection (g) with respect to Taxes of the United States of America. 
(h)    Notwithstanding the foregoing subsections 2.17(a) through (f), the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any additional amounts to any Foreign Lender in respect of United States withholding or backup withholding tax pursuant to such subsections if (i) the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Lender to comply with the requirements of subsection 2.17(g) or (ii) such Lender shall not have furnished the Company with such forms listed in subsection 2.17(g) and shall not have taken such other steps as reasonably may be available to it under applicable tax laws and any applicable tax treaty or convention to obtain an exemption from, or reduction (to the lowest applicable rate) of, such United States withholding tax.
(i)    Without limiting the generality of the above in the case of a Borrower that is resident for tax purposes in the United Kingdom, any Lender entitled to benefits under the US/UK double tax treaty shall (i) deliver to the Internal Revenue Service (with copies delivered to the relevant Borrower and the Administrative Agent, in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Lender is legally entitled to do so) duly completed copies (in triplicate) of the United Kingdom HM Revenue & Customs Form US/Company 2002 (or such other form as may from time to time be prescribed by applicable law or regulation) claiming exemption from withholding on account of United Kingdom income tax pursuant to the US/UK double tax treaty or (ii) (but only if such Lender is a holder of a Double Taxation Treaty Passport) notify the Borrowers’ Representative and the Administrative Agent of such Lender’s HMRC DTTP number (which number shall be used by the Borrowers in delivering timely notification of the Loans to HM Revenue & Customs).  The relevant Borrower and such Lender 

shall each provide all reasonable information and assistance to the Internal Revenue Service and HM Revenue & Customs on a timely basis in order efficiently to process the relevant treaty claim, and shall keep each other (through the Administrative Agent) informed of any matters relating to such claim, including such Borrower providing a copy of any direction (or other authority) issued by the HM Revenue & Customs authorizing such Borrower to pay free and clear of any withholding on account of United Kingdom income tax and of any cancellation thereof.
(j)    If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.17 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.17(j) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.17(j)), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.17(j) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(k)    Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation 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.
2.18    Indemnity.
(a)    The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense (excluding loss of margin), which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) default by the Borrowers in payment when due of the principal amount of or interest on any LIBOR Loan or Swing Line Loan, (ii) default by the Borrowers in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of LIBOR Loans or Swing Line Loans which are not Base Rate Loans after the Borrowers have given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (iii) default by the Borrowers in making any prepayment after the Borrowers have given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (iv) the making of a prepayment (whether voluntary, mandatory, as a result of acceleration or otherwise) of LIBOR Loans or Swing Line 

Loans which are not Base Rate Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto (or, in the case of a Swing Line Loan on the date such Swing Line Loan is due), or (v) the assignment of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period or maturity date applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.24, including, without limitation, in each case, any such loss or expense arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by it or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.  A certificate as to any amounts that a Lender is entitled to receive under this Section 2.18 submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Company shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error and all such amounts shall be paid by the Borrowers promptly upon demand by such Lender.  This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.
(b)    For the purpose of calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this subsection, each Lender shall be deemed to have actually funded its relevant LIBOR Loan or Swing Line Loan through the purchase of a deposit bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate or the applicable rate on such Swing Line Loan, as the case may be, in an amount equal to the amount of that LIBOR Loan or Swing Line Loan, as the case may be, and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period or applicable period for such Swing Line Loan; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans, and the Swing Line Lender may fund its Swing Line Loans, in any manner it sees fit, and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under this subsection.  This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
2.19    Judgment Currency.
(a)    If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under a Note in any currency (the “Original Currency”) into another currency (the “Other Currency”), the parties hereby agree, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal lending procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the Original Currency with the Other Currency after any premium and costs of exchange on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.
(b)    The obligation of the Borrowers in respect of any sum due from the Borrowers to any Lender hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in an Other Currency, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by any Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in such Other Currency, such Lender may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Original Currency with such Other Currency.  If the amount of the Original Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender in the Original Currency, the Borrowers jointly and severally agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment or payment, to indemnify such Lender against such loss.

2.20    Borrowers’ Representative.  Each of the Borrowers hereby appoints the Company as its non‐exclusive representative, and grants to the Company an irrevocable power of attorney to act as its attorney-in-fact, with regard to all matters relating to this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, execution and delivery of any Notice of Borrowing, and amendments, supplements, waivers or other modifications hereto or thereto, receipt of any notices hereunder or thereunder and receipt of service of process in connection herewith or therewith and making all elections as to interest rates and interest payment dates.  (In such capacity, the Company is herein referred to as the “Borrowers’ Representative.”)  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely exclusively on the Borrowers’ Representative’s authority so to act in each instance without inquiry or investigation, and each of the Borrowers hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any losses, costs, delays, errors, claims, penalties or charges arising from or out of the Borrowers’ Representative’s actions pursuant to this Section 2.20 and the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ reliance thereon and hereon.  Notice from the Borrowers’ Representative shall be deemed to be notice from all of the Borrowers and notice to the Borrowers’ Representative shall be deemed to be notice to all of the Borrowers.  Nothing in this Section 2.20 shall vitiate or be held contrary to the Borrowers’ representations and covenants regarding the Loans or the net worth or solvency of the Borrowers made herein or in any of the Loan Documents.
2.21    European Monetary Union.  (a)  If (i) any Optional Currency ceases to be lawful currency of the nation issuing the same and is replaced by the Euro, or (ii) any Optional Currency and the Euro are at the same time recognized by any governmental authority of the nation issuing such currency as lawful currency of such nation and the Administrative Agent shall so request in a notice delivered to the Borrowers, then any amount payable hereunder by the Borrowers in such Optional Currency shall instead be payable in the Euro and the amount so payable shall be determined by translating the amount payable in such Optional Currency to the Euro at the exchange rate established by that nation for the purpose of implementing the replacement of the relevant Optional Currency by the Euro (and the provisions governing payments in Optional Currencies in this Agreement shall apply to such payment in the Euro as if such payment in the Euro were a payment in an Optional Currency) (a “Currency Replacement”).  Prior to the occurrence of the event or events described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence, each amount payable hereunder in any Optional Currency will, except as otherwise provided herein, continue to be payable only in that Optional Currency.
(b)    The Borrowers agree, at the request of the Administrative Agent, to compensate the Administrative Agent or any Lender for any loss, cost, expense or reduction in return that the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall reasonably determine shall be incurred or sustained by the Administrative Agent or such Lender as a result of a Currency Replacement and that would not have been incurred or sustained but for the transactions provided for herein.  A certificate of the Administrative Agent or such Lender setting forth the determination of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be delivered to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusive absent manifest error so long as such determination is made on a reasonable basis.  The Borrowers shall 

pay the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.
(c)    The Borrowers agree at the time of or at any time following the implementation of any changes to the European monetary union, to use reasonable efforts to enter into an agreement amending this Agreement in order to reflect the implementation of such changes, and to place the Lenders and the Borrowers in the position with respect to the settlement of payments of the Euro as they would have been with respect to the settlement of the Optional Currency it replaced.
2.22    Foreign Borrower Obligations.  (a)  Notwithstanding the joint and several liability of the Borrowers under this Agreement (including notwithstanding Section 9.19 of this Agreement), each Foreign Borrower shall be liable solely for principal and interest on Loans (or Reimbursement Obligations) specifically made or advanced to (or issued for the account of) such Foreign Borrower.  Each Foreign Borrower shall be liable only for its pro rata share of all fees and expenses and other sums due hereunder (other than principal and interest on the Loans) based upon the ratio of Loans outstanding to such Foreign Borrower to the total amount of Loans outstanding hereunder.  A Foreign Borrower shall only be liable for indemnities to be paid under or in relation to this Agreement if and to the extent the corresponding damages are caused by such Foreign Borrower.  For the avoidance of doubt, no Foreign Borrower shall be liable for the principal of or interest on any Loan made or advanced to any Domestic Borrower (and not to such Foreign Borrower), any Reimbursement Obligation relating to a Letter of Credit issued for the account of a Domestic Borrower or, except as specifically provided in this Section 2.22(a), any other Obligation of a Domestic Borrower.  
(b)    Any Foreign Borrower may from time to time deliver a termination notice to the Administrative Agent requesting that it no longer be a party hereto.  Such termination shall be effective two Business Days after receipt by the Administrative Agent so long as all obligations of such Foreign Borrower hereunder have been paid in full (including principal, interest and other amounts) and no Letter of Credit issued for the account or benefit of such Foreign Borrower is outstanding; provided that, to the extent this Agreement provides for the survival of certain provisions upon termination hereof, such surviving provisions shall survive a termination under this subsection with respect to any such Foreign Borrower.  Following receipt of such notice, no further Loans may be borrowed by such Foreign Borrower hereunder, unless such Foreign Borrower shall thereafter rejoin this Agreement as a Borrower pursuant to the joinder provisions of Section 5.9 hereof. 
(c)    With respect to each Borrower that is incorporated or formed in Denmark, such Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be limited if and to the extent required to comply with Danish statutory provisions on unlawful financial assistance including without limitation, Sections 206, 207, 208, 209, 210, 211 and 212 of the Danish Companies Act (2009) or any other applicable financial assistance rules of Denmark.
2.23    Change of Lending Office.  Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Sections 2.16 or 2.17 with respect to such Lender, it will, if 

requested by the Borrowers, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal, regulatory or other disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or delay the required performance of any of the obligations of the Borrowers or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Sections 2.16 or 2.17.
2.24    Substitution of Lenders.  Upon the receipt by the Borrowers from any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) of a notice under Section 2.13(b) or 5.9(b) or a claim under Section 2.16 or 2.17, or at any time that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrowers may:  (a) request one or more of the other Lenders to acquire and assume all or part of such Affected Lender’s or Defaulting Lender’s, as the case may be, Loans and Commitment; or (b) replace such Affected Lender or Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, by designating another Lender or financial institution that is willing to acquire such Loans and assume such Commitment; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Law, (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) the replacement Lender or institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans, accrued interest, accrued fees and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on and as of the date of replacement, (iv) the Borrowers shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.18 if any LIBOR Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be prepaid (or purchased) other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto and shall pay any such amounts to such Lender on the date of such replacement, (v) the replacement Lender or institution, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vi) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.6 (provided that the Borrowers or replacement Lender shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee), (vii) the Borrowers shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Sections 2.16 or 2.17, as the case may be, to the extent such additional amounts were incurred on or prior to the consummation of such replacement, (viii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim under Section 2.16 or 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter and (ix) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a notice under Section 5.9(b), such assignment will result in the applicable Foreign Subsidiary becoming a Borrower hereunder. 
2.25    Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
(a)    fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.7(a);
(b)    the Commitment and outstanding Loans of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.1); provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in 

the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender directly affected thereby;
(c)    if any Swing Line Loans are outstanding or any Letter of Credit Obligations exist at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then:
(i)    all or any part of the outstanding Swing Line Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages of the Revolving Credit Commitments (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the Exposure of any non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit 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;
(ii)    if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within three (3) Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such outstanding Swing Line Loans, and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Lenders the Borrowers’ obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in a deposit account held at the Administrative Agent for so long as such Letter of Credit Obligations are outstanding;
(iii)    if the Borrowers cash collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to, or in respect of, such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.8(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations are cash collateralized;
(iv)    if the Letter of Credit Obligations of the non-Defaulting Lenders are reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.8(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitment Percentage; and
(v)    if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations are neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Lender or any other Lender hereunder, all Letter of Credit Fees payable under Section 2.8(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations shall be payable to the Issuing Lenders (and not to such Defaulting Lender) until and to the extent that such Letter of Credit Obligations are reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and
(d)    the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to, but in its sole discretion may from time to time elect to, fund any Swing Line Loan and no Issuing Lender shall be required to, but in its sole discretion may from time to time elect to, issue, amend or increase any 

Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied in its sole discretion that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations and Commitment Percentage of Swing Line Loans will be 100% covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.25(c), and participating interests in any newly made Swing Line Loans or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.25(c)(i) or Section 2.25(c)(ii), as applicable, and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein.
If (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a parent company of any Lender shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue, or (ii) the Swing Line Lender or an Issuing Lender has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loan and such Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Swing Line Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrowers or such Lender, satisfactory to the Swing Line Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.
In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers’ Representative, PNC and the Issuing Lenders agree in writing that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, and the Commitment Percentages of the Swing Line Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage, and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swing Line Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Commitment Percentage, subject to the provisions of Section 2.18.
2.26    Extension Amendments.  (a)  So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (after giving effect to any amendments and/or waivers that are or become effective on the date of the relevant conversion), the Borrowers may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments then in existence selected by the Borrowers (such Class, the “Reference Revolving Credit Commitments”) be converted to extend the termination date thereof and maturity date of the Loans made thereunder (the “Reference Revolver Loans”) and to provide for other terms permitted by this Section 2.26 (any portion thereof that have been so extended, “Extended Revolving Credit Commitments” and any related revolving loans, “Extended Revolver Loans” and the remainder not so extended, “Non-Extended Revolving Credit Commitments” and “Non-Extended Revolver Loans,” respectively).  Prior to entering into any Extension Agreement with respect to any Reference Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrowers shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each Lender who has Reference Revolving Credit Commitments) in such form as approved from time to time by the Borrowers’ Representative and the Administrative Agent (each, an “Extension Request”) setting forth the terms of the proposed Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, which terms shall be identical to those applicable to the Reference Revolving Credit Commitments, except for “Section 2.26 

Additional Agreements” (as hereinafter defined) or as otherwise permitted by this Section 2.26 and except (i) the final termination date of such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and the maturity date of Extended Revolver Loans may be delayed to a later date than the final maturity date of the applicable Reference Revolving Credit Commitment from which they were converted, (ii) the interest rate and upfront or other fees of the Extended Revolver Loans may be higher or lower than the Reference Revolver Loans and (iii) the commitment fee rate with respect to the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be higher or lower than the commitment fee rate for the Reference Revolving Credit Commitments, in each case to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Agreement; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.26 or otherwise, until the occurrence of the Termination Date for the Reference Revolving Credit Commitments, the borrowing of Extended Revolver Loans under any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with any borrowings of Non-Extended Revolver Loans (the mechanics for which may be implemented through the applicable Extension Agreement and may include technical changes related to the borrowing and repayment procedures of the Revolver Loans as determined by the Administrative Agent in the reasonable exercise of its discretion).  No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Reference Revolving Credit Commitments or Reference Revolver Loans converted into Extended Revolving Credit Commitments or Extended Revolver Loans, as applicable, pursuant to any Extension Request.
(b)    The Borrowers shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least five Business Days prior to the date on which the applicable Lenders are requested to respond (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree).  Any Lender (an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Reference Revolving Credit Commitments  converted into Extended Loans/Commitments shall notify the Administrative Agent (such notice to be in such form as approved from time to time by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent) (each, an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request (which shall in any event be no less than three Business Days prior to the effectiveness of the applicable Extension Agreement) of the amount of its Reference Revolving Credit Commitments that it has elected to convert into Extended Loans/Commitments.  In the event that the aggregate amount of the applicable Reference Revolving Credit Commitments subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of the applicable Extended Loans/Commitments requested pursuant to the Extension Request, the applicable Reference Revolving Credit Commitments subject to such Extension Elections shall be converted to Extended Loans/Commitments on a pro rata basis based on the amount of the applicable Reference Revolving Credit Commitments included in each such Extension Election.  Notwithstanding the conversion of any Reference Revolving Credit Commitment into an Extended Revolving Credit Commitment, such Extended Revolving Credit Commitment shall be treated identically to all Reference Revolving Credit Commitments for purposes of the obligations of a Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment in respect of Letters of Credit under Section 2.8, except that the last day for issuing Letters of Credit may be extended and the related obligations to issue Letters of Credit may be continued so long as the applicable Issuing Lender has consented to such extensions.
(c)    So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (after giving effect to any amendments and/or waivers that are or become effective on the date that 

such Extended Loans/Commitments are established), Extended Loans/Commitments may be established pursuant to a supplement (which shall set forth the effective date of such extension) to this Agreement (which, except to the extent expressly contemplated below, shall require the consent only of the Lenders who elect to make the Extended Loans/Commitments established thereby) in such form as approved from time to time by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in the reasonable exercise of its discretion (each, an “Extension Agreement”) executed by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Extending Lenders.  Any Extension Agreement may provide for additional terms (other than those referred to or contemplated in this Section 2.26 or in the form of the Extension Request or Extension Agreement (each, a “Section 2.26 Additional Agreement”)) to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that no such Section 2.26 Additional Agreement shall become effective prior to the time that such Section 2.26 Additional Agreement has been consented to by such of the Lenders, Borrowers and other parties (if any) as would be required (including, without limitation, under the requirements of Section 9.1) if such Section 2.26 Additional Agreement were a separate and independent amendment of this Agreement.  
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Extension Agreement relating to Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolver Loans is entered into, the following provisions of this Section 2.26(d) shall apply to Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolver Loans while any Non-Extended Revolving Credit Commitments remain outstanding.  Any voluntary reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments (whether or not accompanied by a prepayment of Revolver Loans) shall be applied among the outstanding Revolving Credit Commitments of all Classes pro rata to the amounts of Revolving Credit Commitments thereof; provided that, the Borrowers may elect to reduce Non-Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (on a pro rata basis among Non-Extended Revolving Credit Commitments) prior to reducing any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (a “Specified Commitment Reduction”).  In connection with any Specified Commitment Reduction, the Borrower shall prepay Non-Extended Revolver Loans to the extent required by Section 2.14(b).  If the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in Section 4.2 are satisfied at the time, such prepayment may be made with the proceeds of Extended Revolver Loans to be made concurrently therewith.  
(e)    The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the applicable Borrowers as may be necessary or advisable in order to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.26 and/or to appropriately reflect the different Classes, including (if applicable) any different economic terms thereof.  All such amendments entered into with the applicable Borrowers by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be binding and conclusive on all Lenders.
SECTION 3.    REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and issue or participate in the Letters of Credit, each of the Borrowers hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that:

3.1    Financial Condition.  The consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2015, and the related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the periods ended on such dates, copies of which have heretofore been furnished to each Lender, present fairly the consolidated financial condition of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at such dates, and the consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for the periods then ended.  All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved (subject to, in the case of the June 30, 2015 financial statements, normal year-end adjustments and the absence of footnotes).  Neither the Company nor any of its consolidated Subsidiaries had, at the date of the most recent balance sheet referred to above, any material Guaranty Obligation, liability for taxes, or any long‐term lease or unusual forward or long‐term commitment, including, without limitation, any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction, which is required by GAAP to be but is not reflected in the foregoing statements or in the notes thereto.
3.2    No Change.  Since December 31, 2014, there has been no development or event nor any prospective development or event which has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
3.3    Corporate Existence; Compliance with Law.  Each of the Borrowers and its Subsidiaries (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent applicable in the relevant jurisdiction of formation or its jurisdictional equivalent) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the corporate or other power and authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified (or duly registered or its equivalent) to transact business and in good standing (or its jurisdictional equivalent) under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification except where the failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (d) is in compliance with all Laws except to the extent that its failure to comply therewith could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
3.4    Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations.  Each of the Borrowers has the corporate or other power, authority, and legal right to make, deliver and perform this Agreement,  the Applications and each other Loan Document to which it is a party and to borrow hereunder and has taken all necessary corporate or other action to authorize the Extensions of Credit on the terms and conditions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which it is a party and to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which it is a party.  No consent or authorization of, filing with or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person (including stockholders and creditors of the Borrowers) is required in connection with the Extensions of Credit hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Notes, the Applications or any other Loan Document, except to the extent that such consent or authorization has been obtained or such filing or action has been completed prior to the date hereof.  This Agreement has been and each other Loan Document to which it is a party will be, duly executed and delivered on behalf of such Borrower.  This Agreement constitutes and each 

other Loan Document when executed and delivered will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrowers party thereto enforceable against such Borrowers in accordance with their respective terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).
3.5    No Legal Bar.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Notes, the Applications and the other Loan Documents by the Borrowers, the Extensions of Credit extended hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law or material Contractual Obligation of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any properties or revenues of any Borrower pursuant to any such Requirement of Law or material Contractual Obligation.
3.6    No Material Litigation.  No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, threatened against any Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries or against any of its or their respective properties or revenues (a) with respect to this Agreement, the Notes, the other Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, or (b) as to which there is a reasonable likelihood of an adverse determination and which, if adversely determined, could have a Material Adverse Effect.
3.7    No Default.  Neither the Company, any other Borrower nor any of its or their Subsidiaries is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
3.8    Taxes.  Each of the Borrowers has filed or caused to be filed all tax returns which, to its knowledge, are required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its property and all other taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority (other than any the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves, if any, in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the Company or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be); no federal tax Lien has been filed against any of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries.
3.9    Federal Regulations.  None of the Borrowers or any Subsidiary of any Borrower engages or intends to engage principally in the business of extending credit for the purpose, immediately, incidentally or ultimately, of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulations T, U and X).  No part of the proceeds of any Extension of Credit will be used for “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U or for any purpose which violates the provisions of Regulation U or any other Regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.  If requested by any Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form U‐l referred to in said Regulation U.  In addition, and without limiting 

the foregoing, no part of the proceeds of any Extension of Credit will be used for any purpose which violates, or which is inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulations T, U and X.
3.10    ERISA.  (d) Each Plan (such representations in respect of any Multiemployer Plan being made to the best knowledge of each Borrower) has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, except for any noncompliance that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No prohibited transaction (as defined in subsection 7.1(i)), Unpaid Minimum Required Contribution or Reportable Event has occurred with respect to any Single Employer Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan of which any Borrower, any Subsidiary or a Commonly Controlled Entity is a sponsor (based on those assumptions used to fund the Plans), as calculated by such Borrower’s actuaries, did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of the Plans allocable to such benefits by an amount which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Neither any Borrower, any Subsidiary nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan and neither any Borrower nor any Subsidiary or Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject under ERISA to any liability if any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from any Multiemployer Plan as of the valuation date most closely preceding the date this representation is made or deemed made, except in each case to the extent such liability to the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  To the knowledge of the Borrowers, such Multiemployer Plans are neither in Reorganization as defined in Section 4241 of ERISA nor Insolvent as defined in Section 4245 of ERISA.  The present value (determined using actuarial and other assumptions which are reasonable in respect of the benefits provided and the employees participating) of the liability of the Borrowers and each Subsidiary and Commonly Controlled Entity for post‐retirement benefits to be provided to their current and former employees under plans which are welfare benefit plans (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA) does not, in the aggregate, exceed the assets under all such plans allocable to such benefits by an amount that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Neither any Borrower, any Subsidiary nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has any or has received notice of any liability under the Coal Industry Retiree Health Benefit Act of 1992 that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Neither a Reportable Event nor an Unpaid Minimum Required Contribution has occurred during the five‐year period to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Single Employer Plan or Multiemployer Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No (i) termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred during such five-year period that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (ii) no Lien on assets of any of the Borrowers, any Subsidiary or any Commonly Controlled Entity in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen during such five‐year period.  Each Plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, as most recently amended, including amendments to any trust agreement, group annuity or insurance contract, or other governing instrument, is the subject of a favorable determination by the Internal Revenue Service with respect to its qualification under Section 401(a) of the Code or uses a prototype or volume submitter plan that is the subject of a favorable opinion letter issued by the Internal Revenue Service, and to the knowledge of the Borrowers, no 

amendment adopted after such determination negatively affects the qualification of such Plan in a manner that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, which shall be determined for purposes of this subsection by treating any incremental liability to such Plan and its participants or beneficiaries resulting from such an amendment as if payable by the Borrowers.
(b)    With respect to each Foreign Pension Plan, (1) no Foreign Benefit Event has occurred, no liability (whether or not such liability is being litigated ) has been asserted against any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Commonly Controlled Entity by the applicable Governmental Authority or other Person in an aggregate amount that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (1) no Lien has attached on any of the Borrower’s, any Subsidiary’s or any Commonly Controlled Entity’s property as a result of failure to comply with any Law or as a result of the termination of any Foreign Pension Plan, and (1) neither any Borrower, any Subsidiary nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has an unfulfilled obligation to contribute to any Foreign Pension Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  
3.11    Investment Company Act.  None of the Borrowers is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
3.12    [Intentionally Omitted].  
3.13    Environmental Matters.  Except to the extent that all of the following could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect:
(a)    The Properties do not contain, in, on, or under, including, without limitation, the soil and groundwater thereunder, any Materials of Environmental Concern in amounts or concentrations that constitute a violation of, or reasonably could give rise to liability under Environmental Laws.
(b)    Each of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries and the operations of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries at the Properties are in compliance, and for the immediately prior five years been in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws, and there is no contamination at the Properties or violation by any Borrower or Subsidiary of any Environmental Law with respect to the Properties or the business operated by any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof which could reasonably be expected to interfere with the continued operation of any of the Properties or impair the fair saleable value of any thereof.  
(c)    Neither the Company nor any other Borrower nor any of their Subsidiaries has received written notice of any claim, violation, alleged violation, non‐compliance, investigation or potential liability of any Borrower or Subsidiary thereof under any Environmental Law with regard to the Properties that remains pending or is unresolved or is the source of ongoing obligations of any Borrower or Subsidiary thereof.
(d)    None of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries have generated, treated, stored, transported, or disposed of Materials of Environmental Concern at, on, from or under any 

of the Properties nor have any of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries arranged for transportation for treatment or disposal of Materials of Environmental Concern from the Properties to any other location except in either case in the ordinary course of business of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws and as could not reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under any applicable Environmental Law.
(e)    There are no governmental, administrative or judicial actions or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of each Borrower threatened under any Environmental Laws with respect to the Properties to which the Company or any Subsidiary is or will be named as a party, nor is any Borrower or any Subsidiary subject to any order or decree of any Governmental Authority under any Environmental Law with respect to any of the Properties.
(f)    There has been no release or  threatened  release of Materials of Environmental Concern at or from the Properties arising from the operation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in violation of or in amounts or in a manner that could reasonably be expected to result in liability under any Environmental Law.
3.14    No Material Misstatements.  No financial statement, exhibit or schedule furnished by or on behalf of any Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document contains any misstatement of fact, or omitted or omits to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading under the circumstances under which they were made or given, where such misstatement or omission would be material to the interests of the Lenders with respect to the performance of one or more Borrowers of its or their obligations hereunder or thereunder.  
3.15    Title to Properties.  The Borrowers have good and marketable title to or valid leasehold interests in all material properties, assets and other rights which they purport to own or lease or which are reflected as owned or leased on their respective books and records, free and clear of all Liens and encumbrances except Permitted Liens, and subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable leases, except for minor defects in title that do not interfere in any material respect with their ability to conduct their businesses as presently conducted.  All leases of property are in full force and effect without the necessity for any consent which has not previously been obtained unless the failure to be in effect or to obtain such consent would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
3.16    Intellectual Property.  Each of the Borrowers owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, technology, know‐how and processes necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted (the “Intellectual Property”), except for those as to which the failure to own or license could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any such Intellectual Property, nor does such Borrower know of any valid basis for any such claim which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The use of such Intellectual Property by the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries does not infringe the rights of any Person, except for such claims and infringements that, in the aggregate, do not have a Material Adverse Effect.

3.17    List of Subsidiaries.  All of the Subsidiaries of each Borrower as of the date hereof are listed on Schedule 3.17 to this Agreement under its name. 
3.18    Solvency.  The Borrowers, taken as a whole, are solvent such that:  (a) the fair value of their assets (including without limitation the fair salable value of the goodwill and other intangible property of such Borrower) is greater than the total amount of their liabilities, including without limitation, Guaranty Obligations, (b) the present fair salable value of their assets (including without limitation the fair salable value of the goodwill and other intangible property of such Borrower) is not less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability on their debts as they become absolute and matured, and (c) they are able to realize upon their assets and pay their debts and other liabilities and commitments (including Guaranty Obligations) as they mature in the normal course of business.  The Borrowers, taken as a whole, (a) do not intend to, and do not believe that they will, incur debts or liabilities beyond their ability to pay as such debts and liabilities mature, and (b) are not engaged in a business or transaction, or about to engage in a business or transaction, for which their property would constitute unreasonably small capital after giving due consideration to the prevailing practice and industry in which they are engaged.
3.19    Insurance.  All insurance policies and bonds maintained by the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries or any replacements thereof provide adequate coverage from reputable and financially sound insurers in amounts sufficient to insure the assets and risks of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries in accordance with prudent business practice in the industry of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries.
3.20    Anti-Terrorism Laws.  Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries (a) is a Sanctioned Person, (b) either in its own right or through any third party, (i) has any of its assets in a Sanctioned Country or in the possession, custody or control of a Sanctioned Person in violation of any applicable Anti-Terrorism Law, (ii) does business in or with, or derives any of its income from investments in or transactions with, any Sanctioned Country or Sanctioned Person in violation of any applicable Anti-Terrorism Law; or (iii) engages in any dealings or transactions prohibited by any applicable Anti-Terrorism Law. 
3.21    Policies and Procedures regarding Anti-Terrorism Laws.  Without limiting the provisions of Section 3.20, the Borrowers have instituted and maintain policies and procedures designed to promote and achieve continued compliance with applicable Anti-Terrorism Laws.

shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to Section 5.1(a) and (b); provided that, in the case of any Borrowing the proceeds of which are used to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition that closes on or before the date that is thirty (30) days after the signing of the acquisition or similar agreement in respect thereof, the only representations and warranties the accuracy of which shall be a condition to Borrowings to finance such Limited Condition Acquisition within such 30-day period shall be limited to (A) the Specified Representations and (B) such of the representations made by the target on the closing date of such Limited Condition Acquisition in the acquisition or similar agreement in respect of such Limited Condition Acquisition as are material to the interests of the Lenders, but only to the extent that the applicable Borrower (or its Affiliates) has the right to terminate (or not perform) its obligations under such acquisition or similar agreement as a result of an inaccuracy of such representations in such acquisition or similar agreement, 
(b)    No Default.  No Default or Event of Default shall exist, or would result from such proposed Extension of Credit; provided, that in the case of a Borrowing the proceeds of which will be used to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, such condition in this clause (b) shall be as follows: (i) no Default or Event of Default shall exist or would result from such proposed Extension of Credit at the time of the signing of the relevant acquisition or similar agreement or, except as provided in the following clause (ii), at the time of funding of the relevant Borrowing and (ii) in the case of any Borrowing the proceeds of which are used to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition that closes on or before the date that is thirty (30) days after the signing of the acquisition or similar agreement in respect thereof, no Default or Event of Default under Section 7.1(a)(i) or (f) shall exist or result therefrom at the time of such Borrowing.

Each request by the Borrowers for an Extension of Credit hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrowers as of the date of such Extension of Credit that the conditions contained in this Section 4.2 have been satisfied.

then, and in any such event, (A) if such event is an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or (ii) of paragraph (f) above with respect to a Borrower, automatically the Commitments (including the Swing Line Commitment) (including the obligations of an Issuing Lender to thereafter issue Letters of Credit and the Lenders to participate in any Letters of Credit thereafter issued) shall immediately terminate, and the Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents shall automatically and immediately become due and payable (including, without limitation, all Letter of Credit Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder), and (B) if such event is any other Event 

of Default, with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the written request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, (i) by notice to the Company declare the Commitments (including the Swing Line Commitment) to be terminated forthwith, whereupon the Commitments (including the Swing Line Commitment) and the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans, and the obligation of an Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit and the Lenders to participate in any Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans thereafter issued shall immediately terminate; (ii) by notice of default to the Company, declare the Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable (including, without limitation, all Letter of Credit Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder); and/or (iii) by notice to the Company require the Borrowers to, and the Borrowers shall thereupon, deposit in a non-interest bearing account with the Administrative Agent, as cash collateral for their obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the Applications, an amount equal to the Letter of Credit Coverage Requirement, and the Borrowers hereby pledge to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and grant to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders a security interest in, all such cash as security for such obligations.  Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other obligations of the Borrowers hereunder and under the Notes; provided, that, with the consent of the Issuing Lenders, the Administrative Agent may at any time apply any funds in such cash collateral account to any such obligations other than those in respect of Letters of Credit.

Except as expressly provided above in this Section, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived.  In addition to all of the rights and remedies contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have all of the rights and remedies under applicable Law, all of which rights and remedies shall be cumulative and non-exclusive, to the extent permitted by Law.  The Administrative Agent may exercise all post-default rights granted to it and the Lenders under the Loan Documents and applicable Law (including, without limitation, under the Sharing Agreement).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7, no Swap Obligation of any Non-Qualifying Party shall be paid with amounts received under any guaranty of the Obligations under any Loan Document by any other Borrower if such Swap Obligations would constitute Excluded Hedge Liabilities.

SECTION 8.    THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
8.1    Appointment.  Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints PNC Bank, National Association as the Administrative Agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes PNC Bank, National Association, as the Administrative Agent for such Lender, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or therein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.  PNC Bank, National Association agrees to act as the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
8.2    Delegation of Duties.  The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys‐in‐fact and shall be entitled to engage and pay for the advice and services of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to the Lenders for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in‐fact selected by it with reasonable care.
8.3    Exculpatory Provisions.  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:
(a)    shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;
(b)    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; and
(c)    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 any Borrower 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.

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 9.1 and Section 7) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
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 Section 4 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.
8.4    Reliance by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, facsimile, electronic transmission, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to one or more of the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action; 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.  The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or such other percentage of Lenders as shall be required hereunder), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Notes.
8.5    Notice of Default.  The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless it has received notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”.  In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders.  The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such 

Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or such other percentage of Lenders as shall be required hereunder); provided, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, it may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.
8.6    Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent, any Affiliate thereof nor any of its or their respective Related Parties has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrowers, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender.  Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which it is a party.  Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers.  Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrowers which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys‐in‐fact or Affiliates.
8.7    Indemnification.  The Lenders agree to severally indemnify each of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing (each an “Indemnified Person”) in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation, if any, of the Borrowers to do so) in Dollars, ratably according to their respective Commitment Percentages, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Notes) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Person in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Indemnified Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, that no Lender shall be liable to an Indemnified Party for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of 

competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment.  The agreements in this Section 8.7 shall survive the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.  
8.8    Agents in Their Individual Capacity.  Each of the Agents and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers (or any of them) as though such Agent was not an Agent hereunder.  With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and any Note issued to it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.  
8.9    Successor Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrowers.  If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor administrative agent for the Lenders, which appointment shall be subject to the approval of the Borrowers (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required if there shall then exist a Default or Event of Default).  If no successor administrative agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 60 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint an interim successor administrative agent.  Any interim successor administrative agent appointed under the preceding sentence may be replaced at any time by a successor administrative agent designated by the Required Lenders and subject to the approval of the Borrowers (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required if there shall then exist a Default or Event of Default).  Any such successor administrative agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent effective upon its appointment, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Notes.  After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 8 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.
8.10    No Reliance on Administrative Agent’s Customer Identification Program.  Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, their Affiliates or their agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby:  (1) any identity verification procedures, (2) any recordkeeping, (3) comparisons with 

government lists, (4) customer notices or (5) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other Laws.
8.11    USA Patriot Act.  Each Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender that is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (and is not excepted from the certification requirement contained in Section 313 of the USA Patriot Act and the applicable regulations because it is both  an affiliate of a depository institution or foreign Lender that maintains a physical presence in the United States or foreign country, and  subject to supervision by a banking authority regulating such affiliated depository institution or foreign bank) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the certification, or, if applicable, recertification, certifying that such Lender is not a “shell” and certifying to other matters as required by Section 313 of the USA Patriot Act and the applicable regulations:  (1) within 10 days after the Closing Date, and (2) at such other times as are required under the USA Patriot Act.
8.12    Beneficiaries.  Except as expressly provided herein, the provisions of this Section 8 are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders, and the Borrowers shall not have any rights to rely on or enforce any of the provisions hereof.  In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall act solely as administrative agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrowers. 
8.13    Other Agents.  The Lead Arranger, the Documentation Agents and the Syndication Agents, in their respective capacities as Lead Arranger or Other Agents, shall have no duties, powers or responsibilities under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  
8.14    Authorization to Release Borrowers Other than the Company.  The Lenders and Issuing Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent to release any Borrower (other than the Company) from its obligations under the Loan Documents if (a) all of the Capital Stock or other ownership interests in such Borrower are sold or otherwise disposed of or transferred to Persons other than the Borrowers or Subsidiaries of the Borrowers in a transaction permitted under Section 6.4(g) and (b) all Loans to such Borrower have been paid in full and no Letter of Credit remains outstanding solely for the account of such Borrower.
SECTION 9.    MISCELLANEOUS
9.1    Amendments and Waivers.  Except as provided in Section 2.14(d) or Section 2.26 relating to an Incremental Facility Amendment, an Extension Agreement or Section 2.26 Additional Agreement, respectively, neither this Agreement, any Note any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section.  With the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may, from time to time, enter into written amendments (including letter amendments), supplements or modifications hereto and to the Notes and the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Borrowers hereunder or thereunder or waiving, on such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document or any Default or Event of Default and its 

consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall directly or indirectly (a) reduce the amount or extend the maturity of any Note, any Loan or any installment thereof, or reduce the rate of interest (other than to waive interest at the default rate under the second sentence of Section 2.10) or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce any fee payable to any Lender hereunder (other than fees to the Administrative Agent, which shall require the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers to change) or extend the period for payment thereof, or change the duration or the amount of any Lender’s Commitment, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby or (b) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section, or reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, or consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrowers of any of their rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents, or (except as provided herein with respect to Defaulting Lenders) change a Lender’s right to receive its pro-rata distribution of payments and proceeds, or release all or substantially all of the collateral (if any) securing the Loans, in each case without the written consent of all the Lenders, (c) amend subsection 2.6(c) so as to require the consent of less than all of the Lenders to the addition of an Optional Currency that is not permitted as of the Closing Date without the consent of each Lender; or (d) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.1(c), Section 2.25 or any other provision affecting Swing Line Loans without the written consent of the then Swing Line Lender, or (e) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.8, Section 2.25 or any other provisions affecting Letters of Credit without the written consent of each Issuing Lender that has issued a Letter of Credit, (f) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 8 without the written consent of the then Administrative Agent, (g) release the Company from its obligations under the Loan Documents without the written consent of each Lender or (h) except in connection with the sale of all of the Capital Stock of a Borrower other than the Company in accordance with Section 6.4(e) to a Person other than the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof or pursuant to Section 2.22(b), release any Borrower (other than the Company) from its obligations under the Loan Documents without the written consent of each Lender.  Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrowers, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Notes.  In the case of any waiver, the Borrowers, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the outstanding Notes, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

9.3    No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.  No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.  The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.
9.4    Survival of Representations and Warranties.  All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents.
9.5    Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.  
(a)    The Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable, out of pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent),  in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all out of pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Lenders 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 expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued 

hereunder, including all such out of pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit; provided that in the case of this clause (iii), legal fees and legal expenses shall be limited to the fees and expenses of one legal counsel for the Administrative Agent plus, if necessary, one special counsel for each relevant specialty and one local counsel per jurisdiction; provided, further, that in the event of any actual or potential conflict of interest, the Borrowers shall be liable for the fees and expenses of one additional counsel for each Person or group of Persons subject to such conflict.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.5(a), the foregoing costs and expenses shall exclude allocated costs of internal counsel to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender.  
(b)    The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and each 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 (excluding the allocated costs of in-house counsel and limited to not more than one counsel for all such Indemnitees, as a single group, and, if necessary, one special counsel for each specialty and a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for all such Indemnitees as a single group (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, of another firm of counsel for such affected Indemnitee or Indemnitees)), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by any Borrower arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance or nonperformance 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 an 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) breach of representations, warranties or covenants of the Borrowers under the Loan Documents, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, including any such items or losses relating to or arising under Environmental Laws or pertaining to environmental matters, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by a Borrower, 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 or any of its Related Parties, (y) arose from a material breach of such Indemnified Person’s obligations under the Loan Documents as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment, or (z) resulted from a proceeding not arising from or involving any act or omission by any Borrower or any Affiliate thereof that is brought by an Indemnified Person against any other Indemnified Person (other than any claim or proceeding against the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger listed on the cover page hereof, an Issuing Lender or the Swing Loan Lender in its capacity as such, for which indemnification hereunder shall not be limited by this clause (z)).  This Section 9.5(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c)    To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Borrowers shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual 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, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.  No Indemnitee referred to in Section 9.5(b) 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 damages as 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.  The agreement in this Section shall survive repayment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
9.6    Successors and Assigns.
(a)    Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and permitted assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of a Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.  The Borrowers may not assign or transfer any of their rights or obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each Lender.
(b)    Each Lender may, in accordance with applicable law, with the consent of the Company (except (i) when any Event of Default exists or (ii) such assignment is to a Lender or an Affiliate thereof) and the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender having outstanding Letters of Credit at the time of the assignment (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and provided that the Company shall be deemed to have consented if it does not object in writing to the assignment within 10 Business Days after having received written notice thereof) assign to one or more Lenders or Affiliates other financial institutions (each, a “Purchasing Lender”) all or any part of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it and the Notes held by it); provided, however, that (1) so long as the Commitments are in effect, such assignment shall be in an amount not less than $5,000,000 or, if less, the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment  (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default exists, the Company shall agree in their sole discretion), (1) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Company for its acceptance (to the extent required) an Assignment and Assumption, together with the Revolver Note subject to such assignment and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that no fee shall be payable with respect to any assignment by a Lender to an Affiliate thereof, (1) 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 Loan or the Commitment assigned, (1) the Swing Line Commitment and all outstanding Swing Line Loans may only be assigned in their entirety to a 

Lender then having a Commitment, (1) such Purchasing Lender executes and delivers a counterpart to the Sharing Agreement (referred to therein as a “Lender Joinder Agreement”), (1) no such assignment shall be made to a Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (1) no such assignment shall be made to a natural person and (1) no such assignment shall be made to a Competitor unless the Borrowers’ Representative has consented to such assignment to such entity, in which case such entity will not be considered a Competitor for the purpose of such assignment.  Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 9.6, from and after the effective date specified in the applicable Assignment and Assumption, which effective date shall be at least five Business Days after the execution thereof (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default exists, the Company may agree in their sole discretion), (A) such Purchasing Lender shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and (B) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18, 2.19, 5.8(c) and 9.5 (to the extent that such Lender’s entitlement to such benefits arose out of such Lender’s position as a Lender prior to the applicable assignment). To the extent that an assignment of all or any portion of a Lender’s rights and obligations pursuant to this Section 9.6 would, at the time of such assignment, result in increased costs (including but not limited to Tax related costs) under Section 2.16 or 2.17 compared to those being charged by the assigning Lender prior to such assignment, then the Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay the Purchasing Lender such excess increased costs (although the Borrowers shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the assignment), unless such Purchasing Lender becomes a Lender pursuant to a request by the Borrowers under Section 2.24.  Such Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the resulting amounts and percentages held by the Lenders arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such assigning Lender under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 9.6, the consent of the Company shall not be required for any assignment which occurs at any time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.  
(c)    [Intentionally Omitted].
(d)    The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption and the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time. Such information maintained by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. 

(e)    Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and a Purchasing Lender and consented by the Administrative Agent (and in the case of a Purchasing Lender that is not then a Lender or an Affiliate thereof, by the Company (to the extent required above)) together with the Note or Notes subject to such assignment and the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly record the information contained therein.  Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice, the Borrowers, at their own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, in exchange for the surrender of the original Note(s) (A) a new Note to the order of such Purchasing Lender in an amount equal to the amount of the Commitment assumed and (B) if the assigning Lender has retained a Revolving Credit Commitment, a new Note to the order of such assignor in the amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment retained by it.  Such new Note(s) shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such surrendered Note(s); such new Notes shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1 hereto, with respect to a Revolver Note and Exhibit A-2 hereto, with respect to the Swing Line Note.  Canceled Notes shall be returned to the Company.
(f)    Each Lender may without the consent of the Company or the Administrative Agent sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (each a “Participant”) in all or any portion of any Loan owing to such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iv) the Borrowers, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (v) in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code such Lender shall be, to the extent permitted by law, the sole representative with respect to the obligations held in the name of such Lender, whether for its own account or for the account of any Participant, (vi) such Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the Note or Notes held by such Lender or any other Loan Document, other than any such amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Loan or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest that forgives principal, interest or fees or reduces the interest rate or fees payable with respect to any such Loan or Commitment, postpones any date fixed for any regularly scheduled payment of principal of, or interest or fees on, any such Loan or releases the Company from its obligations under the Loan Documents or, except in connection with the sale of all of the Capital Stock of a Borrower (other than the Company) in accordance with Section 6.4(e) to a Person other than the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof, releases such Borrower from its obligations under the Loan Documents or releases all or substantially all of the collateral, if any, securing such Loan.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender 

shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(g)    If amounts outstanding under this Agreement and the Notes are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set‐off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and any Note to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement or any Note, provided that in purchasing such participation such Participant shall be deemed to have agreed to share with the Lenders the proceeds thereof as provided in Section 9.8.  The Borrowers also agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18, 2.19, 9.5 and 9.8(b) with respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Loans outstanding from time to time; provided, that (i) no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to such Sections than the assigning Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such assigning Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred and (ii) such Participant shall be subject to the provisions of Section 9.8(a) as though it were a Lender.
(h)    If any Participant of a Lender is not created or organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, the assigning Lender, concurrently with the sale of a participating interest to such Participant, shall cause such Participant (i) to represent to the assigning Lender (for the benefit of the assigning Lender, the other Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers) that under applicable law and treaties no taxes will be required to be withheld by the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers or the assigning Lender with respect to any payments to be made to such Participant in respect of its participation in the Loans and (ii) to agree (for the benefit of the assigning Lender, the other Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers) that it will deliver the tax forms and other documents required to be delivered pursuant to subsection 2.17(g) and comply from time to time with all applicable U.S. laws and regulations with respect to withholding tax exemptions.
(i)    Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and the Notes to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder.
9.7    Disclosure of Information.  Unless otherwise consented to by the Company in writing, each of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent agrees to use reasonable precautions 

to keep confidential, in accordance with its customary procedures for handling confidential information of the same nature and in accordance with safe and sound banking practices, any non‐public information supplied to it by the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Lender from disclosing any such information  to the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any other party hereto,  to any Participant, Purchasing Lender or Incremental Lender (or prospective Participant, Purchasing Lender or Incremental Lender) so long as such Participant, Purchasing Lender or Incremental Lender (or prospective Participant, Purchasing Lender or Incremental Lender) agrees to comply with the requirements of this Section 9.7,  upon the request or demand of any regulatory authority or other Governmental Authority having or purporting to have jurisdiction over such Lender (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners),  in response to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any Law, including subpoena or similar legal process,  which has been publicly disclosed other than in breach of this Agreement, including through judicial process,  in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder,  to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective Related Parties (it being understood in the case of this clause (g) that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential),  with the consent of the Borrowers’ Representative or  to the extent such Information (I) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (II) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Borrower.   Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of confidential information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such confidential information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
9.8    Adjustments; Set-off.
(a)    If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff, counterclaim or banker’s lien, by receipt of voluntary payment, by realization upon security, or by any other non-pro rata source, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than the pro-rata share of the amount such Lender is entitled thereto, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (1) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (1) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, 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, together with 

interest or other amounts, if any, required by Law (including court order) to be paid by the Lender or the holder making such purchase; and
(II)    the provisions of this Section 9.8(a) shall not be construed to apply to (i) any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of the Loan Documents or (ii) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans, Reimbursement Obligations or Commitment to any assignee or participant, other than to a Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 9.8(a) shall apply).
Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Participant acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Participant were a direct creditor of each Borrower in the amount of such participation (subject, in the case of a Foreign Borrower, to the provisions of Section 2.22(a)).
(b)    In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender and its Affiliates shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrowers (or any of them), any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrowers hereunder or under the Notes (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set‐off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of one or more Borrowers.  Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent after any such set‐off and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set‐off and application.
9.9    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.  A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Company, on behalf of the Borrowers, and each of the Lenders.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy, e-mail or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
9.10    Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

9.11    Integration.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.
9.12    GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.
9.13    Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers.  Each of the Borrowers hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:
(a)    submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the Notes, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non‐exclusive general jurisdiction of the Courts of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the courts of the United States of America for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, and appellate courts from any thereof;
(b)    consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;
(c)    agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Company at its address set forth in Section 9.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto; 
(d)    agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction and
(e)    without limiting the provisions of Section 9.5 hereof, waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.
9.14    Acknowledgments.  Each of Borrowers hereby acknowledges that:
(a)    it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents;
(b)    neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship to the Borrowers (or any of them) and the relationship hereunder between the Administrative Agent and Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrowers, on the other hand, is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

(c)    no joint venture exists among the Lenders or the Agents or among the Borrowers (or any of them) and the Lenders or the Agents.
9.15    No Right of Contribution.  On and after the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, no Borrower shall seek or be entitled to any reimbursement from any other Borrower, or be subrogated to any rights of the Lenders against the Borrowers, in respect of any payments made pursuant to the Loan Documents, until all amounts owing to the Lenders hereunder and under the Notes are paid in full.
9.16    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).  EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.  
9.17    USA Patriot Act Notice.  Each Lender that is subject to the USA Patriot Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.
9.18    ADDITIONAL WAIVERS.  EACH BORROWER HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT SUCH BORROWER’S REASONABLE EXPECTATION WITH RESPECT TO THE AUTHORIZATION GRANTED PURSUANT TO ANY POWER OF ATTORNEY HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, IS THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE LENDERS OR THEIR ATTORNEYS MAY SEEK TO TAKE ANY ACTIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE EXERCISE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S, THE ISSUING LENDERS’ AND THE LENDERS’ RIGHTS AND REMEDIES HEREUNDER AND UNDER THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.  EACH BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ALL OTHER DUTIES OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING LENDERS AND THE LENDERS THAT MAY ARISE UNDER 20 PA. C.S.A. §5601.3(B); PROVIDED THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL EXCULPATE ANY PARTY FOR ITS GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

	8.
	Based solely on the Loan Parties’ disclosure of Identified Governmental Orders, if any, in the Officer Certificate, and our review of such Identified Governmental Orders, the execution and delivery by the Loan Parties of the Credit Documents to which the Loan Parties are a party and the performance by the Loan Parties of their obligations thereunder do not violate any provision of any Identified Governmental Orders.

		
	9.
	Based solely on the Loan Parties’ disclosure of Identified Disputes, if any, in the Officer Certificate, our review of such Identified Disputes, if any, and our knowledge, no judicial, administrative, governmental or other action, litigation, suit, proceeding, arbitration or mediation, is pending against any of the Loan Parties that seeks to restrain, enjoin, prevent the consummation of or otherwise challenge, any of the Credit Documents or any of the transactions contemplated thereby.

	13.
	The Company is not an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

D.    Our opinions in Paragraph IV.1 as to the valid existence and good standing or subsistence, as applicable of the Opinion Parties are based solely on our review of the Good Standing Certificates, copies of which have been made available to you and your counsel, and our opinions with respect to such matters are rendered as of the date of such certificates and limited accordingly.
E.    Our opinions in Paragraph IV.5 are subject to the following additional assumptions and qualifications:
(i)    public policy considerations, statutes or court decisions that may limit the rights of a party to obtain indemnification or contribution;
(ii)    the unenforceability under certain circumstances of provisions imposing penalties, forfeitures, late payment charges or an increase in interest rate upon delinquency in payment or the occurrence of a default;
(iii)    the unenforceability of unspecified fees or charges imposed in the discretion of the Administrative Agent or any Lender;
(iv)    enforceability may be limited to the extent that remedies are sought by a party with respect to a breach that a court concludes is not material or does not adversely affect such party, and enforceability may be limited by any unconscionable, inequitable, or unreasonable conduct on the part of such party seeking enforcement, defenses arising from such party's failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the Credit Documents, defenses arising as a consequence of the passage of time, or defenses arising as a result of such party's failure to act reasonably or in good faith;
(v)    we express no opinion on the enforceability of any self-help, non-judicial remedies provided in the Credit Documents;

(vii)    we express no opinion on the enforceability of any provisions permitting modifications of the Credit Documents only if in writing, or stating that the provisions of the Credit Documents are severable;
    

PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent
October 15, 2015
Page 10 of 13

(viii)    the provisions of the Credit Documents which provide for jurisdiction of the courts of any particular jurisdiction may not be binding on the courts in the forums selected or excluded;
(ix)    we express no opinion with respect to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies with respect to any of the provisions of the Credit Documents; and
(x)    the provisions regarding the remedies available to the Administrative Agent, the Noteholders, the Parity Debtholders or any Lender on default as set forth in the Credit Documents are subject to certain procedural requirements which affect and may restrict rights and remedies stated to be available to the Administrative Agent, the Noteholders, the Parity Debtholders or any Lender.
F.    We express no opinion as to any provisions of the Credit Documents purporting to grant a power of attorney.
G.    We express no opinion with respect to the existence, creation, perfection, priority, or enforcement of any security interest, or the existence or quality of title in any property.
H.    We express no opinion as to any agreement, document, certificate, or instrument, other than the Credit Documents, that may be an exhibit to, or referred to in or contemplated by any of the Credit Documents (other than a Credit Document itself).  
I.    To the extent that any Credit Document refers to, or incorporates, any term or terms from any other agreement or document, we assume that (i) such agreement or document exists and contains the intended term or terms and (ii) an original or copy of such agreement or document has been provided to the parties to such Credit Document.
J.    We express no opinion on the enforceability of any provisions of the Credit Documents that entitle the Administrative Agent, the Noteholders, the Parity Debtholders or any Lender as a matter of right, to the appointment of a receiver after the occurrence of a default.
K.    We express no opinion on the enforceability of any provisions of the Credit Documents requiring any party to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Noteholders, the Parity Debtholders or any Lender or any other person or its or their directors, officers, agents, employees, or successors or assigns, or any provisions exculpating the Administrative Agent, the Noteholders, the Parity Debtholders or any Lender from liability for its actions or inaction, in each case, to the extent such indemnification or exculpation is contrary to public policy or law.

L.    Our opinions in Paragraph IV.11 are limited to only (i) those statutes or regulations of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or the United States of America in effect on the date hereof that a lawyer in Pennsylvania exercising customary professional diligence would reasonably recognize as being directly applicable to the Credit Documents, (ii) those provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act in effect on the date hereof that a lawyer in Delaware exercising customary professional diligence would reasonably recognize as being directly applicable to the Credit Documents, (iii) those provisions of the Florida Business Corporation Act in effect on the date hereof that a lawyer in Florida exercising customary professional diligence would reasonably recognize as being directly applicable to the Credit Documents and (iv) those provisions of the Arizona Business Corporation Act in effect on the date hereof that a lawyer in Arizona exercising customary professional diligence would reasonably recognize as being directly applicable to the Credit Documents.
M.    With respect to our opinion in Paragraph IV.7, the Loan Parties are party to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of April 27, 2012 and such other agreements and instruments with certain lenders ("Existing Lenders") (the "Existing Credit Documents") and our opinion in Paragraph IV.7 is qualified in that we assume, with your permission, that all loans and other obligations of the Loan Parties under the Existing Credit Documents have been paid in full and that Existing Lenders have terminated and released the instruments, agreements and other documents evidencing or otherwise relating to the indebtedness and other obligations evidenced by the Existing Credit Documents.
N.    Our opinions in Paragraphs IV.6 are qualified in that we express no opinion as to whether an entity ("Guarantor Entity") may guarantee indebtedness incurred by another entity (an "Other Entity") except to the extent such Guarantor Entity may be determined to have benefited from the incurrence of such indebtedness by the Other Entity or as to whether such benefit may be measured other than by the extent to which the proceeds of the indebtedness incurred by the Other Entity are directly or indirectly made available to such Guarantor Entity for its corporate or company purposes.
O.    Our opinions in Paragraph IV.5 are subject to the effects of the possible judicial application of foreign laws or foreign governmental or judicial action affecting creditor’s rights.
P.    With respect to interest rates, Pennsylvania’s statutory usury provisions do not apply to loans in excess of $50,000, to business loans in excess of $10,000, or to loans secured by real estate (other than residential real property) regardless of amount.  See 41 Pa. Cons. Stat. Ann. §301(f).  Notwithstanding the apparent inapplicability of usury in the commercial loan context, two criminal statutes, at least arguably, may be applicable.  Section 911(h)(1)(iv) of the Pennsylvania "Crime Code," defines the term "racketeering activity" to include:

PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent
October 15, 2015
Page 12 of 13

. . . the collection of any money or other property in full or partial satisfaction of a debt which arose as a result of the lending of money or other property at a rate of interest exceeding 25% per annum or the equivalent rate for a longer or shorter period, where not otherwise authorized by law.
18 Pa. C.S.A. §911 (Purdon’s Supp. 1993).
The Act of December 29, 1972, P.L. 1671, Act. No. 358 (the "Criminal Usury Statute") made it a criminal offense to engage in "charging, taking or receiving any money . . . at a rate exceeding thirty-six percent per annum or the equivalent rate for a longer or shorter period, when not otherwise authorized by law."  18 P.S. §4806.1 (Purdon’s Supp. 1973-74) (superseded).  The Criminal Usury Statute may have been repealed, but the manner in which the repeal was enacted leaves the matter subject to uncertainty.
We note that because the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents constitute a commercial transaction involving a sophisticated borrower capable of protecting its own business interests, courts applying the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania might be less inclined to apply these criminal statutes in the event that the interest rates in the Credit Documents exceed the established limits.  Moreover, since both criminal usury statutes are subject to the exception “where when not otherwise authorized by law”, courts applying the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania might consider the provisions of the usury statute, 41 Pa. Stat. Ann. §101 et seq., (which provides no usury limits on loans of the amounts and the types set forth above) to constitute such an exception.  Also, it is arguable, that §4806.1 has been repealed, but the manner in which it was repealed leaves the repeal subject to uncertainty.  The absence of any court decision applying either of the two criminal usury statutes to commercial loans, however, leaves these matters open to question.
In addition to the qualifications set forth above, the opinions expressed in this letter are subject to the qualification that we express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the substantive laws (excluding principles of conflict of laws) of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, the Florida Business Corporation Act, the Arizona Business Corporation Act and the substantive federal laws of the United States of America.  Without limiting the foregoing we express no opinion concerning the laws of any foreign jurisdiction.  

We have examined the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act as in effect on the date hereof.  With your permission our opinions in this letter that relate to Delaware law are based solely on such limited review. 
The opinions expressed in this letter are rendered as of the date hereof and with respect to such laws in effect as of the date hereof.  We assume no obligation to supplement this opinion letter in the event of any change in applicable law or in the facts upon which any of the opinions herein are based.

(f)Once a Notice of Election to Share has been sent pursuant to paragraph (a), (b), (c) or (d) above, as the case may be, such Notice shall remain in effect until the Requisite Lenders shall agree otherwise in writing, notwithstanding that the Event of Default triggering the 

sending of such Notice may be waived or that the Person(s) sending such Notice shall seek to revoke such Notice.

(g)On and after the date that a Lender (other than a Bank) shall send or receive a Notice of Election to Share in accordance with the provisions hereof, such Lender shall give a Notice of Shared Payment to each other Lender (other than a Bank) and the Agent promptly upon obtaining actual knowledge of the receipt by such Lender of a Shared Payment. The Agent shall promptly upon receipt send any such notice to the Banks. On and after the date that the Agent shall receive or send a Notice of Election to Share in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Agent shall give a Notice of Shared Payment to each Lender promptly upon obtaining actual knowledge of the receipt by the Agent or any Bank of a Shared Payment.

3.2.Sharing of Payments.

(a)Each Lender (a “Receiving Lender”) agrees that on and after the delivery by such Lender (or in the case of the Banks, by the Agent) of a Notice of Election to Share or its (or, in the case of the Banks, the Agent’s) receipt of a Notice of Election to Share, in each case in accordance with the provisions hereof, and so long as such Notice has not been terminated pursuant to Section 3.1(f) hereof, any payment of any kind (including, without limitation, any payment resulting from a set-off of a deposit account, any offset or any payment or distribution made in the context of any insolvency or reorganization proceeding) thereafter received by it on account of the Obligations (such payment, a “Shared Payment”) from or on behalf of any Subsidiary of the Company is to be distributed to each Lender equally and ratably in accordance with the respective Sharing Percentage of each Lender without discrimination or preference. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to this Section 3.2 are attributable to the Bank Obligations that relate to undrawn amounts under Letters of Credit, such amounts shall be held in a reserve or other account unavailable to the Company or any Subsidiary thereof (the “Reserve Account”) to be established by the Agent. Amounts in the Reserve Account shall be used from time to time to pay the applicable Bank Obligations in respect of the Letters of Credit as they become due. Any amounts remaining in the Reserve Account following the expiration or satisfaction in full of the Bank Obligations in respect of the Letters of Credit for which such sums were held in reserve shall be applied against any Obligations remaining unpaid in accordance with this Section 3.2. Prior to the appointment of the Distribution Agent, as set forth in Section 3.3(a) hereof, each Receiving Lender shall hold all Shared Payments received by it in trust for the benefit of all Lenders.

For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto agree that any payments made by the Company in respect of the Obligations shall not be subject to sharing pursuant to this Agreement.
(b)Each Obligor and Additional Subsidiary Obligor hereby grants to the Agent a lien on and security interest in the Reserve Account and all funds or other assets contained therein or credited thereto to secure first, the Letter of Credit Obligations and then all other Obligations.

3.3.Distribution Agent.

(a)Appointment.  Each Lender agrees that upon the sending of a Notice of Election to Share in accordance with and pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof, the Requisite Lenders shall in good faith promptly seek to appoint an agent (the “Distribution Agent”) to distribute Shared Payments to the Lenders. If no Distribution Agent shall have been appointed by the Requisite Lenders and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided within 30 days after the sending of such Notice of Election to Share, any Lender may petition any court of competent jurisdiction in New York City for the appointment of the Distribution Agent.

(b)Acceptance of Appointment. The Distribution Agent appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to each Lender an instrument accepting such appointment and agreeing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

(c)Remittance and Distribution. Upon the appointment of the Distribution Agent, each Receiving Lender shall remit any Shared Payment received by it to the Distribution Agent for distribution in accordance with Section 3.2 hereof. Upon receipt of any Shared Payment, the Distribution Agent shall calculate the amount of such Shared Payment distributable to each Lender pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof as of the date the Receiving Lender received such Shared Payment and remit such amount to each Lender, accompanied by computations in reasonable detail showing the manner of calculation of the amounts distributable to each Lender pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof.

3.4.Invalidated Payments.

If any amount distributed by the Distribution Agent to the Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement is subsequently required to be returned or repaid to any Subsidiary of the Company or their representatives or successors in interest, whether by court order, settlement or otherwise, each Lender shall, promptly upon its receipt of notice thereof (together with information explaining why such amount is required to be returned or repaid) from the Distribution Agent, pay to the Distribution Agent the pro rata portion received by it of such amount (without interest, except for its pro rata portion of any interest actually paid to any Subsidiary of the Company or their representatives or successors in interest by the applicable Lender) for payment to the applicable Lender or Subsidiary of the Company or its representatives or successors in interest, as the case may be. If any such amounts are subsequently recovered by any Lender from any Subsidiary of the Company or its representatives or successors in interest, such Lender shall remit such amounts to the Distribution Agent and the Distribution Agent shall redistribute such amounts to the Lenders on the same basis as such amounts were originally distributed. The obligations of the Lenders and the Distribution Agent under this Section 3.4 shall survive the repayment of the Obligations and termination of the Bank Loan Documents, the 2006 Note Purchase Agreement, the 2012 Note Purchase Agreement and any Parity Debt Agreement and related documents.

3.5.Receiving Lender to be Subrogated to Rights of Other Lenders.

Any Receiving Lender that has remitted any portion of a Shared Payment received by it to the Distribution Agent as provided in Section 3.3(c) shall, to the extent of such remittance distributable to the other Lenders, be subrogated to the rights of each of such other Lenders to receive payments applicable to the Obligations owed to such other Lenders, until all Obligations owed to such Receiving Lender shall be paid in full, and for purposes of such subrogation, no such payment received by such other Lenders shall, as between the Company and the Subsidiaries of the Company or any of them, and their respective creditors other than the holders of any Obligations, be deemed to be a payment to such other Lenders or on account of their Obligations, it being understood that the provisions of this Section 3.5 are, and are intended, solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the holders of the Obligations.
3.6.Consents

Each of the Lenders hereby consents to (a) any Subsidiary of the Company (including a Foreign Subsidiary) becoming a borrower under the Credit Agreement or (b) any Subsidiary of the Company (including a Foreign Subsidiary) becoming a guarantor of any of the Obligations, provided that each such Subsidiary (except for a Foreign Subsidiary that has become a borrower under the Credit Agreement) shall already be a party to this Agreement or  shall execute and deliver to the other Lenders simultaneously therewith (x) in the case of the Noteholder Obligations, a Noteholder Guaranty Agreement in favor of the 2006 Noteholders and a Noteholder Guaranty Agreement in favor of the 2012 Noteholders, (y) in the case of the Bank Obligations, a Bank Joinder and Assumption Agreement and (z) in the case of Parity Debt Agreement Obligations, a guaranty in form and substance similar to any guaranty executed in favor of such Parity Debtholders as part of the Parity Debt Agreements or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Requisite Parity Debtholders under each Parity Debt Agreement. Each of the Lenders agrees for the benefit of the Company and its Subsidiaries that, subject to the foregoing, such Subsidiaries becoming obligors on or guarantors of the Obligations will not create an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, the 2006 Note Purchase Agreement, the 2012 Note Purchase Agreement or any Parity Debt Agreement and that any such Subsidiaries will be deemed to be “Obligors” under the 2006 Note Purchase Agreement and the 2012 Note Purchase Agreement for purposes of determining compliance with the covenants therein. Any such Subsidiary of the Company (except for a Foreign Subsidiary that has become a borrower under the Credit Agreement) shall, simultaneously with becoming obligated as set forth above, execute and deliver to the Agent and the Lenders an Additional Subsidiary Obligor Joinder Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified, an “Additional Subsidiary Obligor Joinder Agreement”).

The Distribution Agent may resign and be discharged of its duties hereunder by giving written notice thereof to all holders of the Obligations then outstanding.

The Distribution Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Requisite Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor distribution agent.

4.7.Distribution Agent’s Reimbursement and Indemnification.

(a)The Obligors and the Additional Subsidiary Obligors, jointly and severally, shall reimburse and indemnify the Distribution Agent for expenses incurred by the Distribution Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in connection with the execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of this Agreement and for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Distribution Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other document delivered in connection herewith or the transactions contemplated hereby, or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof, provided that the Obligors and the Additional Subsidiary Obligors shall not be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Distribution Agent. The obligations of the Obligors and the Additional Subsidiary Obligors under this Section 4.7 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

(b)Without limiting the obligations of the Obligors and the Additional Subsidiary Obligors, the Lenders severally agree to, in accordance with their respective Sharing Percentages (determined as of the date of delivery of the relevant request for reimbursement or indemnification), reimburse and indemnify the Distribution Agent for expenses incurred by the Distribution Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in connection with the execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of this Agreement and for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Distribution Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other document delivered in connection herewith or the transactions contemplated hereby, or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof, provided that the Lenders shall not be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Distribution Agent. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 4.7 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

4.8.Rights as Lender.

In the event the Distribution Agent, in its individual capacity, is a Lender, the Distribution Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder in such capacity as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Distribution Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, at any time when the Distribution Agent is a Lender, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Distribution Agent in its individual capacity. The Distribution Agent in its individual capacity may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or other transaction, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement, with the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Distribution Agent, in its individual capacity, is not obligated to be a Lender.
