NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,

 ARTICLE ONE 

THE RESIGNING TRUSTEE 

Section 101. The Resigning Trustee hereby notifies the Issuer that the Resigning Trustee hereby resigns as Trustee, Registrar,
Paying Agent and Notes Custodian with respect to the Global Notes under the Indenture and as Collateral Agent under the Indenture and the Security Documents. 

Section 102. The Resigning Trustee hereby represents and warrants to the Successor Trustee that: 

(a) This Instrument has been duly authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of the Resigning Trustee. 

(b) (i) US$821,633,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2018 Notes is outstanding as of the date of this Instrument and
(ii) US$3,789,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2015 Notes is outstanding as of the date of this Instrument, and all interest due on the Notes has been paid to June 15, 2014; provided, that the Resigning Trustee, on behalf of
the Issuer, has given a Notice of Mandatory Redemption, dated November 14, 2014, with respect to the Notes for a partial redemption on December 15, 2014. 

(c) To the best knowledge of the Responsible Officers assigned to the Resigning Trustee’s corporate trust department, the
Resigning Trustee has lawfully discharged its duties as Trustee and Collateral Agent under the Indenture and the Security Documents as of the date of this Instrument. 

 (d) The Resigning Trustee has not issued a notice of Default or Event of Default
to the Issuer or the Holders. 
 (e) As of the date of this Instrument, Resigning Trustee holds no Collateral in its
possession as Collateral Agent. 
 Section 103. Subject to the terms and limitations in this Instrument, the Resigning Trustee
hereby assigns, transfers, delivers and confirms to the Successor Trustee all right, title and interest of the Resigning Trustee in its capacity as Trustee under the Indenture in and to the trust under the Indenture, all of its rights to, and all of
its security interests in and Liens upon, the Collateral, and all other the rights, powers and duties of the Resigning Trustee (except for past fees and expenses collected and/or accrued prior to the date hereof as addressed in Section 304
below) under the Indenture and the Security Documents. The Resigning Trustee shall execute and deliver such further instruments and shall do such other things as the Issuer and/or the Successor Trustee may reasonably require so as to more fully and
certainly vest and confirm in the Successor Trustee all the rights, powers and duties hereby assigned, transferred, delivered and confirmed to the Successor Trustee as successor Trustee, Registrar, Paying Agent, Collateral Agent and Notes Custodian
with respect to the Global Notes. Until such time as all instruments of assignment or transfer with respect to the Resigning Trustee’s interest in the Collateral are executed and/or recorded and all Liens granted in favor of the Resigning
Trustee in the Collateral have been assigned or otherwise transferred to the Successor Trustee, the Resigning Trustee shall continue to hold such Collateral and/or Liens on such Collateral as a co-Collateral Agent, subagent and/or bailee of the
Successor Trustee in accordance with Section 11.02 of the Indenture and the corresponding provisions of the Security Documents, solely for the purposes of maintaining the priority and perfection of such Liens (it being understood, however, that
the Resigning Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to take any action to maintain the priority or perfection of such Liens). In furtherance of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that, except as expressly contemplated by this
Instrument, the Resigning Trustee shall not be required to take any action or exercise any right, power or privilege (including, without limitation, the exercise of any rights or remedies) under the Indenture or Security Documents unless expressly
requested in writing by the Successor Trustee and if the Resigning Trustee has determined that taking such action would not expose it to material liability for which it has not received an acceptable indemnity. Any fees and expenses incurred by the
Resigning Trustee in complying with the foregoing requirements of the Successor Trustee shall be deemed transitional services as referenced in Section 304 herein and shall be paid as provided in such Section 304. 

Section 104. As of or promptly after the effective date of this Instrument, the Resigning Trustee shall deliver to the Successor
Trustee the items listed on Exhibit A annexed hereto, to the extent any such items are in the possession of the Resigning Trustee. 

Section 105. The Resigning Trustee has received a copy of a Notice of Default, dated October 15, 2014, from entities
purporting to hold over 30% of the Notes outstanding under the Indenture. 

 Section 106. The following actions involve WSFS in connection with that certain
indenture dated as of April 15, 2009 under which the Issuer issued 10% Second-Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2018: (i) Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, solely in its capacity as successor Indenture Trustee for the 10%
Second-Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2018, v. Caesars Entertainment Corporation, et al., in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, Case No. 10004-VCG and (ii) Caesars Entertainment Operating Company, Inc. and Caesars
Entertainment Corporation v. Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, et al., in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, Index No. 652392/2014. WSFS, as trustee under the Indenture, is not a party to the actions
referred to in the preceding sentence. 
 ARTICLE TWO 

THE ISSUER 

Section 201. The Issuer hereby certifies that the Issuer is, and the officer of the Issuer who has executed this Instrument is,
duly authorized to: (a) accept the Resigning Trustee’s resignation as Trustee, Registrar, Paying Agent and Notes Custodian with respect to the Global Notes under the Indenture and as Collateral Agent under the Indenture and the Security
Documents, and (b) appoint the Successor Trustee as successor Trustee, Registrar, Paying Agent and Notes Custodian with respect to the Global Notes under the Indenture and as Collateral Agent under the Indenture and the Security Documents. 

Section 202. The Issuer hereby accepts the resignation of the Resigning Trustee as Trustee, Registrar, Paying Agent and Notes
Custodian with respect to the Global Notes under the Indenture and as Collateral Agent under the Indenture and the Security Documents. The Issuer hereby appoints the Successor Trustee as successor Trustee, Registrar, Paying Agent and Notes Custodian
with respect to the Global Notes under the Indenture and as Collateral Agent under the Indenture and the Security Documents, and confirms to the Successor Trustee all the rights, powers and duties of the Resigning Trustee under the Indenture and the
Security Documents. The Issuer shall execute and deliver such further instruments and shall do such other things as the Successor Trustee may reasonably require so as to more fully and certainly vest in and confirm to the Successor Trustee all the
rights, powers, and duties hereby assigned, transferred, delivered and confirmed to the Successor Trustee. 
 Section 203. The
Issuer hereby represents and warrants to the Successor Trustee that: 
 (a) It is a corporation duly incorporated and
existing pursuant to the laws of the State of Delaware. 
 (b) The Indenture and Security Documents were validly and lawfully
executed and delivered by the Issuer and are in full force and effect. 
 (c) The Indenture, the Security Documents and the
Notes are binding obligations of the Issuer. 
 (d) This Instrument has been duly authorized, executed and delivered on
behalf of the Issuer. 

 Section 204. The Issuer shall promptly take all actions to confirm, evidence and
perfect the Successor Trustee’s rights in, or with respect to, the Collateral pursuant to the transaction documents and to maintain a perfected lien or security interest in the Collateral, in each case to the extent required by the Indenture
and the Security Documents. 
 ARTICLE THREE 

THE SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE 

Section 301. The Successor Trustee hereby represents and warrants to the Resigning Trustee and the Issuer that: 

(a) The Successor Trustee is eligible and qualified under the Indenture to act as Trustee under the Indenture. 

(b) This Instrument has been duly authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of the Successor Trustee and constitute its
legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms. 
 Section 302. The Successor Trustee hereby
accepts its appointment as Trustee, Registrar, Paying Agent and Notes Custodian with respect to the Global Notes under the Indenture and as Collateral Agent under the Indenture and the Security Documents, and shall hereby be vested with all the
rights, powers and duties of the Resigning Trustee under the Indenture and the Security Documents. The Successor Trustee does not hereby assume any liability of the Resigning Trustee arising out of any breach by the Resigning Trustee in the
performance or non-performance of the Resigning Trustee’s duties as Trustee or Collateral Agent under the Indenture or the Security Documents. 

Section 303. Promptly after the execution and delivery of this Instrument, the Successor Trustee shall cause a notice,
substantially in the form of Exhibit B annexed hereto, to be sent to each holder of the Notes in accordance with the Indenture. 

Section 304. Notwithstanding this Instrument and the resignation of the Resigning Trustee, the Resigning Trustee shall retain all
rights (including indemnification rights) and entitlements relating to its service as Trustee and Collateral Agent under the Indenture and the Security Documents arising or accruing on or before the effective date of this Instrument, including
without limitation, all entitlements to the payment of its fees and reimbursement of its expenses, regardless of when such amounts become payable or are paid. In the event and to the extent the Successor Trustee shall exercise its right to priority
of payment or any Lien upon the distributions to holders of the Notes or otherwise becomes entitled to receive payment of funds subject to Section 7.07 of the Indenture, or payment otherwise of any fees and expenses as Trustee or
Collateral Agent under the Indenture for any reason, it shall do so for both its own fees and expenses and the outstanding fees and expenses of the Resigning Trustee, incurred in connection with its duties under the Indenture or the Security
Documents prior to the effective date of this Instrument, and any subsequent transitional services requested by the Successor Trustee from the Resigning Trustee after the effective date of this Instrument. The fees, costs, expenses and
indemnification of the Resigning Trustee shall at all times rank pari passu with those of the Successor Trustee without any preference between themselves. To the extent the 

 
Resigning Trustee receives funds from the Issuer, other than for payment of the Resigning Trustee’s fees, costs, expenses and indemnification, it agrees to hold those funds as agent for the
Successor Trustee and promptly pay over such funds to the Successor Trustee. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 304 is intended solely to acknowledge the Resigning Trustee’s rights and entitlements under the Indenture, and is not
intended to create or expand any obligation on the part of the Successor Trustee, and the Successor Trustee shall have no obligation to pay the Resigning Trustee’s fees and expenses or to indemnify the Resigning Trustee. 

Section 305. For the avoidance of doubt, the appointment of Delaware Trust as Collateral Agent under the Indenture and the
Security Documents includes the appointment of Delaware Trust as Collateral Agent for all Other Second-Lien Obligations. Delaware Trust, as Collateral Agent, acknowledges and agrees that it acts as Collateral Agent for the four series of second lien
securities (collectively, the “Second Lien Notes”): the 2018 Notes and the 2015 Notes issued under the Indenture, the 10.00% Second-Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2018 issued under the Indenture, dated as of April 15,
2009, and the 12.75% Second-Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2018 issued under the Indenture, dated as of April 16, 2010. The Collateral Agent shall (i) forward to the trustees for the Second Lien Notes all notices, certificates and other
documents and communications delivered to the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral and/or the Security Documents, (ii) to the extent consistent with its duties under the Indenture and the Security Documents, comply with directions of
the trustees for the Second Lien Notes delivered pursuant to the indentures under which such notes were issued, and (iii) to the extent consistent with its duties under the Indenture and the Security Documents, consult with the trustees for the
Second Lien Notes in connection with any action to be taken by the Collateral Agent under the Security Documents and/or with respect to the Collateral. For the avoidance of doubt, the Resigning Trustee and the Issuer acknowledge and agree that the
Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the rights, privileges, protections, immunities, indemnities and benefits provided to the Collateral Agent by the Security Documents in connection with the actions referred to in this Section 305.

Each Letter of Credit shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the L/C Issuer.  Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed.  Nothing herein limits the 

-50-

Borrower’s obligations under Section 2.06(c)(i).  All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto, and from and after the Closing Date shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof. 
(iv)        The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:
(A)        any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law applicable to the L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the L/C Issuer in good faith deems material to it;
(B)        subject to Section 2.02(b)(iii), (1) in the case of any Standby Letter of Credit, the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the date of issuance or last renewal or (2) in the case of any Commercial Letter of Credit, the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than 180 days after the date of issuance or last renewal, in either case unless the Required Revolving Lenders have approved such expiry date;
(C)        the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless all the Revolving Lenders have approved such expiry date;
(D)        the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the L/C Issuer or the terms and conditions of the applicable Letter of Credit Application; 
(E)        such Letter of Credit is in a face amount less than $25,000, in the case of a Commercial Letter of Credit or $100,000 (or such lesser amount agreed upon by the L/C Issuer) in the case of any other type of Letter of Credit or denominated in a currency other than Dollars; 

-51-

(F)        such Letter of Credit is in violation of the ISP, the UCP or other applicable Governmental Rule; or
(G)        any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless such Lender’s Fronting Exposure has been reallocated to other Lenders in accordance with Section 2.16(a) or the L/C Issuer has entered into arrangements satisfactory to the L/C Issuer with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender to eliminate the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure.
(v)        The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) the L/C Issuer would have no obligation under the terms hereof to issue such Letter of Credit as amended or (B) the beneficiary does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.
(b)        Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Evergreen Letters of Credit.
(vi)        Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.  Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., at least four (4) Business Days (or such later date and time as the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be.  In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which date shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the account party thereunder, and (H) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may reasonably require.  In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which date shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may reasonably require.

-52-

(vii)        Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof.  Upon receipt by the L/C Issuer of confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the requested issuance or amendment is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices.  Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Proportionate Share times the amount of such Letter of Credit; provided, however, that the amount of such Lender’s participation shall be adjusted in the manner set forth in Section 2.16(a)(iv).  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender upon the issuance of a Letter of Credit.
(viii)        If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions (each, an “Evergreen Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Evergreen Letter of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer to prevent any such renewal at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Nonrenewal Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued.  Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer for any such renewal.  Once an Evergreen Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any time to a date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such renewal if (A) the L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof, or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the Business Day immediately preceding the Nonrenewal Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such renewal or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 3.02 is not then satisfied.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the L/C Issuer shall have no obligation to permit the renewal of any Evergreen Letter of Credit at any time.

-53-

(ix)        Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.
(c)        Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.
(iii)        Upon any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the amount to be paid by the L/C Issuer as a result of such drawing and the date on which payment is to be made by the L/C Issuer to the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit in respect of such drawing; provided, however, that in the case of Commercial Letters of Credit, subsequent notification by routine methods shall be deemed sufficient notice.  Not later than 11:00 a.m., on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date of payment, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing, which may be effected through the debiting of one or more deposit accounts maintained with the Administrative Agent.  If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Revolving Lender’s L/C Risk Participation with respect thereto.  In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Business Day following the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.01 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment and the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 (other than the delivery of a Notice of Loan Borrowing for Revolving Loans).  Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.02(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided, that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.
(iv)        Each Revolving Lender (including the Revolving Lender acting as L/C Issuer) shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.02(c)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s office in an amount equal to its L/C Risk Participation with respect to the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.02(c)(iii), each Revolving Lender that so makes 

-54-

funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount.  The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer.
(v)        With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Revolving Loan Borrowing because the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate applicable to Revolving Loans upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.  In such event, each Revolving Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.02(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Revolving Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.02.
(vi)        Until each Revolving Lender funds its Revolving Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.02(c) to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Revolving Lender’s L/C Risk Participation with respect thereto shall be solely for the account of the L/C Issuer.  For the avoidance of doubt, interest shall accrue beginning on the Honor Date for any such draw under a Letter of Credit.
(vii)        Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer for, or participate in, amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.02(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, offset, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.  Any such reimbursement shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.
(viii)        If any Revolving Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.02(c) by the time specified in Section 2.02(c)

-55-

(ii), the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.  A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Revolving Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.02(c)(vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d)        Repayment of Participations.  
(v)        At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving Lender such Revolving Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.02(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), or any payment of interest thereon, the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Revolving Lender a portion of such payment allocable to such Revolving Lender’s L/C Risk Participation with respect to such Letter of Credit in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.
(vi)        If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.02(c)(i) is required to be returned, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer a portion of such payment allocable to such Revolving Lender’s L/C Risk Participation with respect to such Letter of Credit on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Revolving Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the daily Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.
(e)        Obligations Absolute.  The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit, and to repay each L/C Borrowing and each drawing under a Letter of Credit that is refinanced by a Borrowing of Revolving Loans, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents under all circumstances, including the following:
(iii)        

-56-

any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;
(iv)        any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of any Letter of Credit or any other amendment or waiver of, or any consent to departure from, all or any of the Credit Documents;
(v)         the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, offset, defense or other right that the Borrower or any other Loan Party may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;
(vi)        any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such 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; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;
(vii)        any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; 
(viii)    the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any Property purported to be represented by documents presented in connection with any Letter of Credit or any difference between any such Property and the character, quality, quantity, condition, or value of such Property as described in such documents;
(ix)        the time, place, manner, order or contents of shipments or deliveries of Property as 

-57-

described in documents presented in connection with any Letter of Credit or the existence, nature and extent of any insurance relative thereto;
(x)        the solvency or financial responsibility of any party issuing any documents in connection with a Letter of Credit;
(xi)        any failure or delay in notice of shipments or arrival of any Property;
(xii)        any error in the transmission of any message relating to a Letter of Credit not caused by the L/C Issuer, or any delay or interruption in any such message;
(xiii)        any error, neglect or default of any correspondent of the L/C Issuer in connection with a Letter of Credit;
(xiv)        any consequence arising from acts of God, war, insurrection, civil unrest, disturbances, labor disputes, emergency conditions or other causes beyond the control of the L/C Issuer;
(xv)        the form, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any contract or document referred to in any document submitted to the L/C Issuer in connection with a Letter of Credit; and
(xvi)        any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower.
The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will promptly notify the L/C Issuer.  The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.
(f)        

-58-

Role of L/C Issuer.  Each of the Borrower and the Lenders agrees that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor the L/C Issuer nor any of their respective affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors nor any of the correspondents, participants or assignees of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of such Lender or the Required Lenders; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application.  The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower from pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor the L/C Issuer nor any of their respective affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors nor any of the correspondents, participants or assignees of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in Section 2.02(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which are determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen from the L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a 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.
(g)        Cash Collateral.  Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, (A) if the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing or (B) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any Letter of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, the Borrower shall immediately Cash Collateralize the Obligations in an amount equal to 105% of the then Effective Amount of the L/C Obligations.  The Borrower hereby grants the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, a Lien on all such cash and deposit account balances described in the definition of “Cash Collateralize” as 

-59-

security for the Obligations.  The Lien held by the Administrative Agent in such cash collateral to secure the Obligations shall be released upon the satisfaction of each of the following conditions: (1) no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding, (2) all L/C Obligations shall have been repaid in full and (3) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing.  Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Wells Fargo and may be invested in Cash Equivalents reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.  Such accounts must be subject to control agreements pursuant to which the Administrative Agent has “control,” as such term is used in the Uniform Commercial Code, sufficient to perfect on a first priority basis a security interest in such cash collateral.  Upon the drawing of any for which funds are on deposit as Cash Collateral, such funds shall be applied, to the extent permitted under applicable Governmental Rules, to reimburse the L/C Issuer.
(h)        Applicability of ISP and UCP.  Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance) (the “ISP”) shall apply to each Standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance (the “UCP”), shall apply to each Commercial Letter of Credit.
(i)        Letter of Credit Fees.  The Borrower shall pay, to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender in accordance with its L/C Risk Participation in each Letter of Credit, a Letter of Credit fee for each such Letter of Credit for the period from the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit until the expiry thereof, at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans (plus two percent (2.00%) during such time that the Default Rate is in effect with respect to the Obligations pursuant to Section 2.07(c)) applicable from time to time during such period multiplied by the actual daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit; provided, however, that any fees payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.16(c) shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Governmental Rules, to the other Revolving Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments of their respective participations in such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.16(a)(iv), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the L/C Issuer for its own account; provided, however, that if the Borrower has provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the L/C Issuer in respect of such Defaulting Lender’s obligations in respect of such Letter of Credit, the balance of such fee, if any, shall be payable to the Borrower.  Such fee for each Letter of Credit shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, commencing with the first such day to occur after the issuance of 

-60-

such Letter of Credit and on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date.  Each such fee, when due, shall be fully earned and when paid, shall be non-refundable.  If there is any change in the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans during any fiscal quarter, the Applicable Margin used for the calculation of the Letter of Credit fee shall be the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans on each day during such quarter.  
(j)         Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer.  The Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account the customary presentation, transfer, amendment, modification, extension, renewal, draw, negotiation and other processing fees, and other stand costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to Letters of Credit as from time to time in effect; provided that the fees described in this Section 2.02(j) shall not include any fronting fee, issuing fee or other similar fee.  Such fees and charges are due and payable on demand, fully earned when due and are nonrefundable. 
(k)        Conflict with Letter of Credit Application.  In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Letter of Credit Application, the terms hereof shall control.
2.03.        Swing Line.  
(a)        The Swing Line.  On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender shall make loans (each such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) in Dollars to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date up to but not including the Revolving Loan Maturity Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Effective Amount of Revolving Loans of the Swing Line Lender in its capacity as a Revolving Lender of Revolving Loans, may exceed the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (i) the aggregate Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations shall not exceed the Total Revolving Loan Commitment at such time, and (ii) the aggregate Effective Amount of the Revolving Loans of any Revolving Lender (other than the Swing Line Lender), plus such Revolving Lender’s Total Lender Risk Participation shall not exceed such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment, and provided, further, that the Swing Line Lender shall not make any Swing Line Loan to refinance an outstanding Swing Line Loan.  Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.03, prepay under Section 2.06, and reborrow under this Section 2.03.  Each Swing Line Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan.  Immediately upon the 

-61-

making of a Swing Line Loan, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Proportionate Share times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.  Furthermore, if there at any time exists a Defaulting Lender, unless such Lender’s Fronting Exposure has been reallocated to other Lenders in accordance with Section 2.16(a), before making any Swing Line Loans, the Swing Line Lender may condition the provision of such Swing Line Loans on its entering into arrangements satisfactory to the Swing Line Lender with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender to eliminate the Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure.
(b)        Borrowing Procedures.  Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be requested pursuant to the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone.  Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which amount shall be a minimum amount of $100,000 or an integral multiple of $25,000 in excess thereof, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day.  Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by the delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Notice of Swing Line Borrowing, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, which notice may be delivered by facsimile.  Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Notice of Swing Line Borrowing, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Notice of Swing Line Borrowing and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof.  Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Revolving Lender) prior to 1:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.03(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified  in Section 3.02 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 4:00 p.m., on the borrowing date specified in such Notice of Swing Line Borrowing, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower at its office by crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of the Swing Line Lender in immediately available funds.
(c)        Refinancing of Swing Line Loans.
(vii)        

-62-

The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably requests the Swing Line Lender to act on its behalf), that each Revolving Lender make a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Swing Line Risk Participation with respect to the Swing Line Loans then outstanding.  Such request shall be made in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.01, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment and the conditions set forth in Section 3.02.  The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Notice of Loan Borrowing for Revolving Loans promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent.  Each Revolving Lender shall make an amount equal to its Swing Line Risk Participation in the amount specified in such Notice of Loan Borrowing for Revolving Loans available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s office not later than 1:00 p.m., on the day specified in such Notice of Loan Borrowing for Revolving Loans, whereupon, subject to Section 2.03(c)(ii), each Revolving Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount.  The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.
(viii)        If for any reason any Revolving Loan Borrowing cannot be requested in accordance with Section 2.03(c)(i) or any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Revolving Loan Borrowing, the Notice of Loan Borrowing for Revolving Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Revolving Lenders fund the amount of its Swing Line Risk Participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Revolving Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such Swing Line Risk Participation.
(ix)        If any Revolving Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the daily Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.  A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Revolving Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.03(c)(iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

-63-

(x)        Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans or to purchase and fund Swing Line Risk Participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, offset, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.  Any such purchase of participations shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.
(d)        Repayment of Participations.  
(xvii)        At any time after any Revolving Lender has purchased and funded a Swing Line Risk Participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Revolving Lender an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Swing Line Risk Participation with respect thereto (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Lender’s Swing Line Risk Participation was outstanding and funded) in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.
(xviii)        If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Swing Line Risk Participation with respect thereto on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the daily Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.  The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender.
(e)        Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender.  Subject to Section 2.07(c), each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans.  The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans.  Until each Revolving Lender funds its Base Rate Loan or Swing Line Risk Participation pursuant to this Section 2.03 to refinance such

Revolving Lender’s Swing Line Risk Participation of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Swing Line Risk Participation shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.  
(f)        Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender.  The Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender.

(ix)        The Borrower may not reduce the Total Revolving Loan Commitment prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date, if, after giving effect to such reduction, the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans, L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans then outstanding would exceed the Total Revolving Loan Commitment; and
(x)        The Borrower may not cancel the Total Revolving Loan Commitment prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date, if, after giving effect to such cancellation, any Revolving Loan, L/C Obligation or Swing Line Loan would then remain outstanding.

(b)        Mandatory and Scheduled Reduction of Commitments. 
(xi)

(xii)        The Total Revolving Loan Commitment shall be automatically and permanently reduced to zero on the Revolving Loan Maturity Date.
(xiii)         The Total Closing Date Term Loan Commitment shall be automatically and permanently reduced to zero at the close of business on the Closing Date.

(c)        Effect of Revolving Loan Commitment Adjustments.  From the effective date of any reduction or increase of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment, the Commitment Fees payable pursuant to Section 2.05(b) shall be computed on the basis of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment as so reduced or increased.  Once reduced or cancelled, the Total Revolving Loan Commitment may not be increased or reinstated without the prior written consent of all Lenders (except as permitted under Section 2.17).  Any reduction of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to Section 2.04(a) or Section 2.04(b) shall be applied

such Net Proceeds are not used to pay the purchase price of such Permitted Acquisition and (b) such Net Proceeds are not used to pay the purchase price of one or more other Permitted Acquisitions or used to make Investments permitted by this Agreement, in each case, within one (1) year after such Net Proceeds arise, such Net Proceeds shall be used to make prepayments subject to this Section 2.06(c)(v) without giving effect to this parenthetical) and receives aggregate Net Proceeds from all such issuances and sales of Equity Securities and such equity capital contributions in excess of $35,000,000, the Borrower shall, within (5) Business Days receipt of such Net Proceeds, prepay (or Cash Collateralize, as applicable) the outstanding Loans and other Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 2.06(d), in each case, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the following applicable percentage of such aggregate Net Proceeds in excess of $35,000,000: (I) twenty five percent (25%) (when the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter for which the Borrower has delivered Holdings’ Financial Statements is greater than or equal to 2.25:1.00), (II) ten percent (10%) (when the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter for which the Borrower has delivered Holdings’ Financial Statements is greater than or equal to 2.00:1.00 but less than 2.25:1.00) and (III) zero percent (0%) (when the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter for which the Borrower has delivered Holdings’ Financial Statements is less than 2.00:1.00).  
(vi)        Not later than thirty (30) days after the date of receipt (the “Receipt Date”) by a Loan Party (or the Administrative Agent) of any Net Insurance Proceeds or Net Condemnation Proceeds which exceed $2,500,000 in connection with a particular circumstance or event, the Borrower shall prepay (or Cash Collateralize, as applicable) the outstanding Loans and other Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 2.06(d) in an amount equal to such Net Insurance Proceeds or Net Condemnation Proceeds.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be required to make a prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.06(c)(vi) with respect to any particular Net Insurance Proceeds or Net Condemnation Proceeds if the Borrower advises the Administrative Agent in writing within 30 days after the related Receipt Date that it or another Loan Party intends to (x) repair, restore or replace the assets from which such Net Insurance Proceeds or Net Condemnation Proceeds were derived or (y) invest in productive assets used in the business of the Loan Parties, to the extent such repair, restoration, replacement or investment is completed within twelve (12) months after the related Receipt Date or, if the applicable Loan Party enters into a binding commitment during such twelve (12) month period, within one hundred and eighty (180) days after the expiration of such twelve (12) month period.  If, at any time after the occurrence of a Receipt Date and prior to the completion of the corresponding repair, restoration or replacement, the applicable periods provided in the preceding sentence shall elapse without the completion of the related repair, restoration or replacement, or an Event of Default described in Section 6.01(a), (f) or (g) shall occur, then the Borrower shall immediately prepay (or Cash Collateralize, as applicable) the outstanding Loans and other Obligations in the amount and in the manner described in the first sentence of this Section 2.06(c)(vi).  

-71-

(vii)        The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at the time of each prepayment (or Cash Collateralization, as applicable) required under this Section 2.06(c), (A) a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment (or Cash Collateralization, as applicable) and (B) to the extent practicable, at least three days prior written notice of such prepayment (or Cash Collateralization, as applicable).  Each notice of prepayment (or Cash Collateralization, as applicable) shall specify the prepayment (or Cash Collateralization, as applicable) date and the Type and principal amount of each Loan (or portion thereof) to be prepaid.  In the event that the Borrower shall subsequently determine that the actual amount required to be prepaid (or Cash Collateralized, as applicable) was greater than the amount set forth in such certificate, the Borrower shall promptly make an additional prepayment of the Loans (and/or, if applicable, the Revolving Loan Commitments shall be permanently reduced) and/or deliver additional Cash Collateral in an amount equal to the amount of such excess, and the Borrower shall concurrently therewith deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower demonstrating the derivation of the additional amount resulting in such excess.
(d)        Application of Loan Prepayments.  All prepayments required under Sections 2.06(c)(iii)-(vi) shall be applied first, to prepay the Term Loans and Incremental Term Loans on a pro rata basis to the extent Term Loans and Incremental Term Loans are then outstanding, second, to prepay the Swingline Loans to the extent Swing Line Loans are then outstanding, third, to prepay the Revolving Loans to the extent Revolving Loans are then outstanding and fourth, following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to Cash Collateralize the Obligations in an amount equal to 105% of the then Effective Amount of the L/C Obligations (in each case with a permanent reduction in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment to the extent required by Section 2.04(b)(i)).  Without modifying the order of application of prepayments set forth in the preceding or succeeding sentence, all such prepayments shall, to the extent possible, be first applied to prepay Base Rate Loans and Base Rate Portions and then if any funds remain, to prepay LIBOR Loans and LIBOR Portions.  All such mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans and Incremental Term Loans will be applied to the remaining scheduled amortization payments in the inverse order of maturity.  
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.06, all mandatory prepayments required under Sections 2.06(c)(iii)-(vi), to the extent attributable to Foreign Subsidiaries, are subject to permissibility under local law (e.g., financial assistance, corporate benefit, thin capitalization, capital maintenance and similar legal principles, restrictions on up-streaming of cash intra group and the fiduciary and statutory duties of the directors of the relevant subsidiaries) such that if such Foreign Subsidiary would be in violation of applicable local law by virtue of repatriation, the portion of the funds so affected will not be required to be prepaid and may be retained by the 

-72-

applicable Foreign Subsidiary (provided that the Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take all actions required by applicable local law to permit such repatriation) until such time the applicable local law permits repatriation to the United Sates whereupon such funds shall be repatriated and promptly applied to the repayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.06(c)(iii)-(vi).  Further, if Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries determine in good faith that they would incur a material adverse tax liability (including any withholding tax) if all or a portion of the funds required to make a mandatory prepayment were up-streamed, transferred as a Distribution or otherwise repatriated (a “Restricted Amount”), the amount the Borrower will be required to mandatorily prepay shall be reduced by the Restricted Amount until such time as it may upstream, transfer or repatriate such Restricted Amount without incurring such material adverse tax liability, whereupon such Restricted Amount will be repatriated and promptly applied to the repayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.06(c)(iii)-(vi).
2.07.        Other Payment Terms.
(a)        Place and Manner.  All payments to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment, setoff or offset.  The Borrower shall make all payments due to each Lender or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Credit Document by payments to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s office located at the address specified in Section 8.01, with each payment due to a Lender to be for the account of such Lender and such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office.  The Borrower shall make all payments under this Agreement or any other Credit Document in lawful money of the United States and in same day or immediately available funds not later than 12:00 noon on the date due.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly disburse to each Lender each payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender. 
(b)        Date.  Whenever any payment due hereunder shall fall due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.
(c)        Default Rate.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default other than an Event of Default described in Section 6.01(a), (f) or (g), at the option of the Required Lenders, from and after the date of such Event of Default until the time when such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived in writing by the Required Lenders or all the Lenders (as may be required by this Agreement), the Borrower shall pay interest on the aggregate, outstanding principal amount of all Obligations hereunder (excluding Obligations 

-73-

in respect of Lender Rate Contracts and Lender Bank Products) at a per annum rate equal to the otherwise applicable interest rate plus two percent (2.00%) or, if no such per annum rate is applicable to any such Obligations, at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate, plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans, plus two percent (2.00%) (the “Default Rate”) payable on demand.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default described in Section 6.01(a), (f) or (g) until the time when such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived in writing by the Required Lenders or all the Lenders (as may be required by this Agreement), the Borrower shall pay interest on the aggregate, outstanding principal amount of all Obligations hereunder at a per annum rate equal to the Default Rate (such Default Rate becoming effective on such date of occurrence of such Event of Default without notice and shall be immediately due and payable without notice or demand).  Overdue interest shall itself bear interest at the Default Rate, and shall be compounded with the principal Obligations daily, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Governmental Rules.   
(d)        Application of Payments.  All payments hereunder shall be applied first to unpaid fees, costs and expenses then due and payable under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, second to accrued interest then due and payable under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents and finally to reduce the principal amount of outstanding Loans and L/C Borrowings.  The proceeds of the Collateral will be applied as set forth in Section 6.02.  
(e)        Failure to Pay the Administrative Agent.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume that the Borrower has made or will make such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be paid to the Lenders on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lenders.  If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at a per annum rate equal to the daily Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.  A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amount owing by such Lender under this Section 2.07(e) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

-74-

2.08.        Loan Accounts; Notes.
(a)        Loan Accounts.  The obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans made to it by each Lender and to pay interest thereon at the rates provided herein shall be evidenced by an account or accounts maintained by such Lender on its books (individually, a “Loan Account”), except that any Lender may request that its Loans be evidenced by a note or notes pursuant to Section 2.08(b), Section 2.08(c), and Section 2.08(d).  Each Lender shall record in its Loan Accounts (i) the date and amount of each Loan made by such Lender, (ii) the interest rates applicable to each such Loan and each Portion thereof and the effective dates of all changes thereto, (iii) the Interest Period for each LIBOR Loan and LIBOR Portion, (iv) the date and amount of each principal and interest payment on each Loan and Portion and (v) such other information as such Lender may determine is necessary for the computation of principal and interest payable to it by the Borrower hereunder; provided, however, that any failure by a Lender to make, or any error by any Lender in making, any such notation shall not affect the Borrower’s Obligations.  The Loan Accounts shall be conclusive absent manifest error as to the matters noted therein.  In addition to the Loan Accounts, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans.  In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control.
(b)        Revolving Loan Notes.  Upon request by any Revolving Lender, each Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loans shall be evidenced by a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit D (individually, a “Revolving Loan Note”) which note shall be (i) payable to such Revolving Lender, (ii) in the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment, (iii) dated the Closing Date and (iv) otherwise appropriately completed.  The Borrower authorizes each Revolving Lender to record on the schedule annexed to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Note the date and amount of each Revolving Loan made by such Revolving Lender and of each payment or prepayment of principal thereon made by the Borrower, and agrees that all such notations shall be conclusive absent manifest error with respect to the matters noted; provided, however, that any failure by a Revolving Lender to make, or any error by any Revolving Lender in making, any such notation shall not affect the Borrower’s Obligations.  The Borrower further authorizes each Revolving Lender to attach to and make a part of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Note continuations of the schedule attached thereto as necessary.  If, because any Revolving Lender designates separate Applicable Lending Offices for Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Loans, such Revolving Lender requests that separate promissory notes be 

-75-

executed to evidence separately such Revolving Loans, then each such note shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit D, mutatis mutandis to reflect such division, and shall be (w) payable to such Revolving Lender, (x) in the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment, (y) dated the Closing Date and (z) otherwise appropriately completed.  Such notes shall, collectively, constitute a Revolving Loan Note.
(c)        Term Loan Notes.  
(i)        Upon request by any Closing Date Term Lender, each Closing Date Term Lender’s Closing Date Term Loan shall be evidenced by a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit E (individually, a “Closing Date Term Loan Note”) which note shall be (i) payable to such Closing Date Term Lender, (ii) in the amount of such Closing Date Term Lender’s Closing Date Term Loan, (iii) dated the Closing Date and (iv) otherwise appropriately completed.  If, because any Closing Date Term Lender designates separate Applicable Lending Offices for Base Rate Portions and LIBOR Portions, such Closing Date Term Lender requests that separate promissory notes be executed to evidence separately such Portions, then each such note shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit E, mutatis mutandis to reflect such division, and shall be (w) payable to such Closing Date Term Lender, (x) in the amount of such Closing Date Term Lender’s Closing Date Term Loan, (y) dated the Closing Date and (z) otherwise appropriately completed.  Such notes shall, collectively, constitute a Closing Date Term Loan Note.
(ii)        Upon request by any Incremental Term Lender, each Incremental Term Lender’s Incremental Date Term Loan shall be evidenced by a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit F (individually, an “Incremental Term Loan Note”) which note shall be (i) payable to such Incremental Term Lender, (ii) in the amount of such Incremental Term Lender’s Incremental Term Loan, (iii) dated the Incremental Effective Date for the applicable Incremental Term Loan Borrowing and (iv) otherwise appropriately completed.  If, because any Incremental Term Lender designates separate Applicable Lending Offices for Base Rate Portions and LIBOR Portions, such Incremental Term Lender requests that separate Incremental Term Loan Note be executed to evidence separately such Portions, then each such note shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit F, mutatis mutandis to reflect such division, and shall be (w) payable to such Incremental Term Lender, (x) in the amount of such Incremental Term Lender’s Incremental Term Loan, (y) dated the Incremental Effective Date for the applicable Incremental Term Loan Borrowing and (z) otherwise appropriately completed.  Such notes shall, collectively, constitute an Incremental Term Loan Note.
(d)        

-76-

Swing Line Notes.  Upon request by the Swing Line Lender, the Swing Line Lender’s Swing Line Loans shall be evidenced by a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit M (individually, a “Swing Line Note”) which note shall be (i) payable to the Swing Line Lender, (ii) in the amount of the Swing Line Lender’s Swing Line Loans, (iii) dated the Closing Date and (iv) otherwise appropriately completed.
2.09.        Loan Funding.
(e)        Lender Funding and Disbursement to the Borrower.  Each Lender shall, before 11:00 a.m. on the date of each Borrowing, make available to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s office specified in Section 8.01, in same day or immediately available funds, such Lender’s Revolving Proportionate Share or Term Proportionate Share of such Borrowing.  After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 3.02 (and, if such Borrowing consists of the initial Loans, Section 3.01), the Administrative Agent shall promptly make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower maintained by the Borrower on the books of Wells Fargo with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower; provided, however, that if, on the date of the Borrowing there are Swing Line Loans and/or L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing shall be applied, first, to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings, second, to the payment in full of any such Swing Line Loans, and third, to the Borrower as provided above.
(f)        Lender Failure to Fund.  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 Revolving Proportionate Share or Term Proportionate Share, as the case may be, of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume that such Lender has made or will make such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.09(a), and the Administrative Agent may on such date, in reliance upon such assumption, disburse or otherwise credit to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  If any Lender does not make the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Proportionate Share or Term Proportionate Share, as the case may be, of any Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date of such Borrowing, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, interest which shall accrue on such amount from the date of such Borrowing until such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent at per annum rates equal to the daily Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.  A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amount owing by such Lender under this Section 2.09(b) 

-77-

shall be conclusive absent manifest error with respect to such amount.  If the amount of any Lender’s Revolving Proportionate Share or Term Proportionate Share, as the case may be, of any Borrowing is not paid to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days after the date of such Borrowing, the Borrower shall repay such amount to the Administrative Agent, on demand, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount was disbursed to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing.
(g)        Lenders’ Obligations Several.  The failure of any Lender to make the Loan to be made by it as part of any Borrowing or to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be funded by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its Loan as part of such Borrowing or fund its participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans, but, except as a result of a reallocation of a Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Proportionate Share of the Effective Amount of L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.16(a)(iv),  no Lender shall be obligated in any way to make any Loan or fund any participation in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans which another Lender has failed or refused to make or otherwise be in any way responsible for the failure or refusal of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing or to fund any participation required to be funded by such other Lender.
2.10.        Pro Rata Treatment.
(a)        Borrowings, Commitment Reductions, Etc.  Except as otherwise provided herein (including the application of funds provided for under Section 2.16(a)(ii) arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender and the termination of the unused Commitment of a Defaulting Lender provided for under Section 2.16(a)(vi)):
(iii)        Each Revolving Loan Borrowing and reduction of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment shall be made or shared among the Lenders pro rata according to their respective Revolving Proportionate Shares;
(iv)         (A) The Closing Date Term Loan Borrowing shall be made or shared among the Closing Date Term Lenders pro rata according to their respective Closing Date Term Proportionate Shares and (B) each Incremental Term Loan Borrowing shall be made or shared among the Incremental Term Lenders and New Lenders with Incremental Term Loan 

-78-

Commitments with respect thereto pro rata according to their respective Incremental Term Proportionate Shares;
(v)         Each payment of principal on Loans in any Borrowing or on any L/C Advances in any L/C Borrowing shall be shared among the Lenders which hold the Loans in such Borrowing or the L/C Advances in such L/C Borrowing pro rata according to the respective unpaid principal amounts of such Loans or L/C Advances then owed to such Lenders; provided, however, during any time there is a Defaulting Lender, each payment of principal on Loans or L/C Advances shall be shared by only the Non-Defaulting Lenders that made such Loans or L/C Advances pro rata according to the respective unpaid principal amounts of such Loans or L/C Advances then owed to such Non-Defaulting Lenders until the unpaid principal amounts of all Loans or L/C Advances, as applicable, are held by all Lenders according to their respective Proportionate Shares;
(vi)        Each payment of interest on Loans in any Borrowing shall be shared among the Lenders which hold the Loans in such Borrowing pro rata according to (A) the respective unpaid principal amounts of such Loans of such Lenders and (B) the dates on which such Loans became owing to such Lenders;
(vii)        Each payment of Commitment Fees shall be shared among the Lenders with Revolving Loan Commitments (other than Defaulting Lenders) pro rata according to (A) their respective Revolving Proportionate Shares and (B) in the case of each Lender which becomes a Lender hereunder after the date hereof, the date upon which such Lender so became a Lender;
(viii)         Letter of Credit fees payable under Section 2.02(i) shall be shared among the Lenders with Revolving Loan Commitments (other than Defaulting Lenders) and the L/C Issuer pro rata according to (A) their respective L/C Risk Participations and Fronting Exposure with respect to the applicable Letters of Credit and (B) in the case of each Lender which becomes a Lender hereunder after the date hereof, the date upon which such Lender so became a Lender; 
(ix)         Each payment of interest (other than interest on Loans or interest in respect of Lender Rate Contracts or Lender Bank Products) shall be shared among the Lenders and the Administrative Agent owed the amount upon which such interest accrues pro rata according to (A) the respective amounts so owed such Lenders and the Administrative 

-79-

Agent and (B) the dates on which such amounts became owing to such Lenders and the Administrative Agent; 
(x)        Each payment of any fees due in connection with any amendment hereto or any waiver of or forbearance from any Event of Default existing hereunder shall be shared among those Lenders consenting to such amendment, waiver or forbearance or as otherwise agreed to by such Lenders; and
(xi)      All other payments under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (including, without limitation, fees paid in connection with any amendment, consent, waiver or the like) shall be for the benefit of the Person or Persons specified.
(b)        Sharing of Payments, Etc.  If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, offset, or otherwise) on account of the Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations or in Swing Line Loans held by it, in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Loans and the L/C Obligations obtained by all Lenders entitled to such payments, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans and/or participations in L/C Obligations or in Swing Line Loans as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such other Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such other Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered without right to payment of interest.  The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff or offset) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 2.10(b) shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and applied in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including (1) the sharing of principal payments among Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to the proviso to Section 2.10(a)(iii) and (2) the application of funds provided for under Section 2.16(a)(ii) arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in L/C Obligations or in Swing Line Loans to any assignee or participant.

-80-

2.11.        Change of Circumstances.
(a)        Inability to Determine Rates.  If, on or before the first day of any Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Portion, (i) any Lender shall advise the Administrative Agent that the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period cannot be adequately and reasonably determined due to the unavailability of funds in or other circumstances affecting the London interbank market or (ii) any Lender shall advise the Administrative Agent that the rate of interest for such Loan or Portion, as the case may be, does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining such LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Portion, the Administrative Agent shall immediately give notice of such condition to the Borrower and the other Lenders.  After the giving of any such notice and until the Administrative Agent shall otherwise notify the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such condition no longer exist, the Borrower’s right to request the making of, conversion to or a new Interest Period for LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Portions shall be suspended.  Any LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Portions outstanding at the commencement of any such suspension shall be converted at the end of the then current Interest Period for such LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Portions into Base Rate Loans or Base Rate Portions, as the case may be, unless such suspension has then ended.
(b)        Illegality.  If any Change of Law shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to make or maintain any LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Portion, such Lender shall immediately notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing of such Change of Law.  Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower’s right to request the making of, conversion to or a new Interest Period for LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Portions with respect to such Lender shall be terminated, and (ii) the Borrower shall, at the request of such Lender, either (A) pursuant to Section 2.01(e), convert any such then outstanding LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Portions of such Lender into Base Rate Loans or Base Rate Portions, as the case may be, at the end of the current Interest Period for such LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Portions or (B) immediately repay or convert any such LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Portions of such Lender if such Lender shall notify the Borrower that such Lender may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain such LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Portions.  Any conversion or prepayment of LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Portions made pursuant to the preceding sentence prior to the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Portions shall be deemed a prepayment thereof for purposes of Section 2.13.  After any Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of such a Change of Law and until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that it is no longer unlawful or impossible for such Lender to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan or a LIBOR Portion, all Revolving Loans and all Portions of the Term Loan of such Lender shall be Base Rate Loans and Base Rate Portions, respectively.  

-81-

(c)        Increased Costs.  If, any Change of Law:
(i)        Shall subject any Lender to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to any Loan or Letter of Credit, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments by the Borrower to any Lender under this Agreement (except for Indemnifiable Taxes, Other Taxes and Taxes excluded from indemnification under Section 2.12); or
(ii)        Shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve (excluding any Reserve Requirement or other reserve to the extent included in the calculation of the LIBOR Rate for any Loans or Portions), special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or any other acquisition of funds by any Lender for any LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Portion; or
(iii)        Shall impose on any Lender any other condition related to any LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Portion or such Lender’s Commitments;
and the effect of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, renewing, or maintaining any such LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Portion or its Commitments or to reduce any amount receivable by such Lender hereunder; then the Borrower shall from time to time, subject to such Lender’s compliance with its obligations under Section 2.15(a), within five (5) Business Days after demand by the Administrative Agent (accompanied by the certificate referred to in the next sentence), pay to such Lender additional amounts sufficient to reimburse such Lender for such increased costs or to compensate such Lender for such reduced amounts; provided that the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any such amount which arose prior to the date which is 270 days preceding the date of such demand or is attributable to periods prior to the date which is 270 days preceding the date of such demand (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).  A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of such increased costs or reduced amounts, submitted by such Lender to the Administrative Agent for delivery to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.11(c) shall survive the payment and performance of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.  
(d)        Capital Requirements.  If any Lender determines that any Change of Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such 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 capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by any L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change of Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.  A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of such increased costs, submitted by any Lender to the Administrative Agent for delivery to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.11(d) shall survive the payment and performance of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.  
2.12.        Taxes on Payments.
(a)        Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.12, all payments by the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction for, any and all present or future federal, state, local and foreign taxes, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, fees, assessments, withholdings, or other charges of whatever nature and all interest, penalties and other liabilities with respect thereto, including withholding taxes imposed by any jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof, but excluding (i) taxes imposed on a Lender’s overall net income and franchise taxes imposed on such Lender, in each case, by the jurisdiction of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof and (ii) any taxes imposed on any “withholdable payment” payable to such recipient as a result of the failure of such recipient to satisfy the applicable requirements of FATCA (all such nonexcluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, fees, assessments, withholdings, or other charges of whatever nature and all interest, penalties and other liabilities being referred to herein as “Indemnifiable Taxes”).  If Indemnifiable Taxes are imposed in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender, then (i) subject to the penultimate sentence of Section 2.12(e), the sum payable shall be increased by the amount necessary so that after making all required deductions such Lender shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make all required deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.  For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Section 2.12, “applicable law” includes FATCA.
(b)         Other Taxes.  In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or 

-83-

documentary taxes and any excise, transfer, sales and use, value added or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Credit Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).
(c)        Tax Indemnification.  Subject to the penultimate sentence of Section 2.12(e), the Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender for the full amount of all Indemnifiable Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.12) paid by such Lender, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted.  Such indemnification shall be made within 30 days following the date the Administrative Agent or such Lender makes written demand therefor.  
(d)        Evidence of Payment.  Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes withheld hereunder (and, with respect to any Taxes or Other Taxes not so withheld, to the extent available), the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent, at the Administrative Agent’s office, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.
(e)        Withholding Exemption Certificates.  On or prior to the date of the initial Loans or, if such date does not occur within thirty (30) days after the date of this Agreement, by the end of such 30-day period, each Lender which is not organized under the laws of the United States or a state thereof shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (A) two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E or Form W-8ECI (or successor applicable form), as the case may be, certifying in each case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments of interest under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, or (B) if the Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the IRC and cannot deliver either United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, FormW-8BEN-E or Form W-8ECI (with respect to a complete exemption under an income tax treaty) pursuant to clause (A) above (any such lender, a “Non-Bank Lender”), (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K (any such certificate, a “Non-Bank Certificate”) and (y) two accurate and complete original signed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E (with respect to the portfolio interest exemption) (or successor form) certifying to such Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments of interest to be made under this Agreement.  Each such Lender further agrees (i) promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any change of circumstances which would prevent such Lender 

-84-

from receiving payments hereunder without any deduction or withholding of Indemnifiable Taxes and (ii) if such Lender has not so notified the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any change of circumstances which would prevent such Lender from receiving payments hereunder without any deduction or withholding of Indemnifiable Taxes, then upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a new certificate or form, certifying that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction of Indemnifiable Taxes, but only if and to the extent such Lender is legally entitled to do so.  If a Lender (other than an assignee pursuant to a request by the Borrower under Section 2.15) fails to provide to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2.12(e) (or, in the case of an Assignee Lender, Section 8.05(c)) any certificates or other evidence required by such provision to establish that such Lender is, at the time it becomes a Lender hereunder, entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, such Lender shall not be entitled to any indemnification under Section 2.12(a) for any such Taxes imposed on such Lender primarily as a result of such failure, except to the extent that such Lender (or its assignor, if any) was entitled, at the time such Lender became a Lender hereunder, to receive additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to such Tax pursuant to Section 2.12(a).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.12, the Borrower agrees to pay additional amounts and to indemnify each Lender in the manner set forth in Section 2.12(a) and Section 2.12(c) (without regard to the identity of the jurisdiction requiring the deduction or withholding) in respect of any amounts deducted or withheld by it as described in the immediately preceding sentence as a result of any changes after the Closing Date (or, in the case of any Lender becoming a Lender more than 30 days following the Closing Date, after the date such Lender becomes a Lender) in any applicable law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof, relating to Taxes other than FATCA, and, in the case of FATCA, any such change that is not substantially comparable or materially more onerous to comply with than FATCA.
(f)        Lender to Use Reasonable Efforts.   Any Lender claiming any additional amounts in respect of Indemnifiable Taxes payable pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions and such Lender’s internal policies) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested by the Borrower, if the making of such a filing would avoid the need for or reduce the amount of any such Indemnifiable Taxes attributable to the Loans and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, result in any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense or otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.
(g)         Survival.  Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement contained herein, the agreements and obligations contained in this Section 2.12 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other Obligations hereunder.

-85-

(h)        Tax Returns.  Nothing contained in this Section 2.12 shall require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available any of its Tax Returns or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.
(i)        FATCA.  If a payment made to a Lender under any Credit 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, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent such documentation as is required by FATCA.  Solely for purposes of this clause (i), FATCA shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
2.13.        Funding Loss Indemnification.  If the Borrower shall (a) repay, prepay or convert any LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Portion on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor (whether a scheduled payment, an optional prepayment or conversion, a mandatory prepayment or conversion, a payment upon acceleration or otherwise), (b) fail to borrow any LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Portion for which a Notice of Loan Borrowing has been delivered to the Administrative Agent (whether as a result of the failure to satisfy any applicable conditions or otherwise), (c) fail to convert any Revolving Loans into LIBOR Loans or any Portion of a Term Loan Borrowing into a LIBOR Portion in accordance with a Notice of Conversion delivered to the Administrative Agent (whether as a result of the failure to satisfy any applicable conditions or otherwise), or (d) fail to continue a LIBOR Loan or a LIBOR Portion for which a Notice of Interest Period Selection has been delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall pay to the appropriate Lender within five (5) Business Days after demand a prepayment fee, failure to borrow fee, failure to convert fee or failure to continue fee, as the case may be (determined as though 100% of the LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Portion had been funded in the London interbank eurodollar currency market), equal to the sum of:
(a)        the amount, if any, by which (i) the additional interest would have accrued on the amount prepaid or not borrowed at the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans and LIBOR Portions if that amount had remained or been outstanding through the last day of the applicable Interest Period exceeds (ii) the interest that such Lender could recover by placing such amount on deposit in the London interbank eurodollar currency market for a period beginning on the date of the prepayment or failure to borrow and ending on the last day of the applicable Interest Period (or, if no deposit rate quotation is available for such period, for the most comparable period for which a deposit rate quotation may be obtained); plus

-86-

(b)        all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such Lender reasonably attributable to such payment, prepayment or failure to borrow.
Each Lender’s determination of the amount of any prepayment fee payable under this Section 2.13 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.  The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.13 shall survive the payment and performance of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
2.14.        Security.
(a)        Security Documents.  The Loans, together with all other Obligations, shall be secured by the Liens granted by the Borrower under the Security Documents.  All obligations of a Guarantor under the Credit Documents shall be secured by the Liens granted by such Guarantor under the Security Documents.  So long as the terms thereof are in compliance with this Agreement, each Lender Rate Contract and Lender Bank Product shall be secured by the Lien of the Security Documents with the priority set forth in Section 6.02.  
(b)        Further Assurances.  Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5.01(i) and the Security Documents, the Borrower shall deliver, and shall cause each Guarantor to deliver, to the Administrative Agent such security agreements, pledge agreements, control agreements, and other instruments, agreements, certificates, opinions and documents (including Uniform Commercial Code financing statements) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to:
(i)        grant, perfect, maintain, protect and evidence security interests in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Parties, in the Collateral prior to the Liens or other interests of any Person, except for Permitted Liens; and
(ii)        otherwise establish, maintain, protect and evidence the rights provided to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Parties, pursuant to the Security Documents.

-87-

The Borrower shall fully cooperate with the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and perform all additional acts requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to effect the purposes of this Section 2.14.
2.15.        Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of the Lenders.  
(a)        If any Lender shall demand any payment under Section 2.11(c), Section 2.11(d) or Section 2.12(a), then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use its commercially reasonable efforts to designate a different Applicable Lending Office for the funding or booking of its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligation hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.11(c), Section 2.11(d) or Section 2.12(a), as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense or would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  The Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by such Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 
(b)        If (a) any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, (b) any Lender shall suspend its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Portions pursuant to Section 2.11(b) for a reason which is not applicable to any other Lender, (c) any Lender shall demand any payment under Sections 2.11(c), 2.11(d) or 2.12(a) and such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different Applicable Lending Office pursuant to Section 2.15(a), or (d) any Lender has not consented to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by Section 8.04 that requires the consent of all Lenders or each Lender affected thereby and which has been approved by the Required Lenders as provided in Section 8.04, then the Administrative Agent may (or upon the written request of the Borrower if the Borrower has located or identified a Replacement Lender that is an Eligible Assignee and is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent as contemplated below, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to) replace such Lender (the “Affected Lender”), or cause such Affected Lender to be replaced, with another lender (the “Replacement Lender”) satisfying the requirements of an Assignee Lender under Section 8.05(c), by having the Affected Lender sell and assign all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (including for purposes of this Section 2.15, participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) to the Replacement Lender pursuant to Section 8.05(c); provided, however, that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to identify or locate a Replacement Lender for the Borrower (it being expressly agreed that in such circumstances it is the Borrower’s obligation to identify or locate a Replacement Lender that is an Eligible Assignee and is acceptable to the Administrative Agent).  Upon receipt by any Affected Lender of a written 

-88-

notice from the Administrative Agent stating that the Administrative Agent is exercising the replacement right set forth in this Section 2.15, such Affected Lender shall sell and assign all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (including for purposes of this Section 2.15, participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) to the Replacement Lender pursuant to an Assignment Agreement and Section 8.05(c) for a purchase price equal to the sum of the principal amount of the Affected Lender’s Loans so sold and assigned or such other amount is agreed to by such Affected Lender and such Replacement Lender), all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and its ratable share of all fees and other amounts to which it is entitled.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender that is an Affected Lender shall not be required to make an assignment as described in this Section 2.15(b), if prior to the effectiveness of the applicable assignment, the circumstances which made such Lender an Affected Lender cease to apply, whether as a result of a waiver by the applicable Lender or otherwise.
2.16.        Defaulting Lenders.
(a)         Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:
(i)         Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, modification, supplement, extension, termination, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders and in the Defaulting Lender Amendment Paragraph.  
(ii)        Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 6.02, received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 8.06(a) or otherwise), subject to the proviso in Section 2.10(a)(iii), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the L/C Issuer, to Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposures with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.16(c); fourth, if so requested by the Borrower (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in 

-89-

respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s future Fronting Exposures with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.16(c); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowing in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Borrowings owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Borrowings owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Borrowings and Swing Line Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv).  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
(iii)         Certain Fees. Any Defaulting Lender (A) shall not be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee under Section 2.05(b) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fees that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (B) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit fees as provided in Section 2.02(i).
(iv)         Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Proportionate Share of the Effective Amount of L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans shall automatically (effective on the day such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Proportionate Shares (calculated without 

-90-

regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment) but only to the extent that (A) the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 are satisfied at such time (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at the time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (B)such reallocation does not cause the sum of (I) the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans made by such Non-Defaulting Lender outstanding at such time and (II) such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Total Lender Risk Participation at such time to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment at such time.  No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.
(v)         Cash Collateral; Prepayment of Swing Line Loans.  If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, immediately following notice by the Administrative Agent, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Proportionate Share of the Effective Amount of L/C Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (iv) above) in accordance with Section 2.16(c).
(vi)         Termination of Revolving Loan Commitment.  The Borrower may terminate the unused amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment of a Defaulting Lender upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of clause (ii) above will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts); provided that (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.
(b)         Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of 

-91-

outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Revolving Proportionate Shares (without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
(c)         Cash Collateral Provisions.  
(i)         At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one (1) Business Day after the request of the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure of the L/C Issuer (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).  In addition, as a condition to issuing any Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer may require that the Borrower deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).  
(ii)         All Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts with the Administrative Agent.  The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral, all as security for the Defaulting Lender’s obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to clause (iii) below.  If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure, the Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, within one (1) Business Day after the request of the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).
(iii)         

-92-

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.16 in respect of Letters of Credit, shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligations to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.
(iv)         Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure shall be released promptly following (A) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee)), or (B) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default (and, following the application as provided in clause (iii) above, may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 6.02), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.  
2.17.         Incremental Term Loans; Increases in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment  
(a)        Incremental Term Loans.  
(i)        The Borrower may at any time prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date request one or more Borrowings of additional Term Loans (each, an “Incremental Term Loan”); provided, however, that the Borrower shall not make such a request if the conditions set forth in Section 2.17(i) are not satisfied.  Any such request shall be submitted by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly forward copies to the existing Term Lenders), specify the proposed Incremental Effective Date (as defined below) and amount of such proposed Incremental Term Loan Borrowing and be accompanied by a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying that no Event of Default exists or will occur as a result of such Incremental Term Loan Borrowing.  Only those existing Term Lenders that agree to extend an Incremental Term Loan as part of such Incremental Term Loan Borrowing (each, an “Incremental Term Lender”) and those New Lenders that agree to extend an Incremental Term Loan as part of such Incremental Term Loan Borrowing that shall be entitled to receive any fees in connection with such Incremental Term Loan Borrowing.  No Term Lender shall have any obligation, express or implied, to offer any Incremental Term Loan.  Only the consent of each Incremental Term Lender shall be required 

-93-

for an advance of an Incremental Term Loan pursuant to this Section 2.17(a).  No Term Lender that elects not to advance an Incremental Term Loan may be replaced in respect of its existing Term Loan as a result thereof without such Term Lender’s written consent.
(ii)        Any Incremental Term Loans will be made subject to this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Term Loan Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Credit Documents, executed (in the case of such amendment to this Agreement) by the Borrower, each Incremental Term Lender, if any, each New Lender, if any, and the Administrative Agent.  The Incremental Term Loans shall have terms and conditions substantially identical to those applicable to the Closing Date Term Loans (other than with respect to pricing (provided that the pricing for the Incremental Term Loans shall be based on the same “Tiers” and corresponding Total Leverage Ratios (but not necessarily the same Applicable Margins) as is set forth in the then effective definition of Applicable Margin), arrangement fees, upfront fees and additional fees, amortization, maturity and any different drawing conditions that are agreed to in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Amendment) and will be otherwise on terms and subject to conditions reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.  Each Incremental Term Loan Amendment shall, without the consent of any other Lenders, amend the provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to set forth the terms of the Incremental Term Loans, including the amount and final maturity thereof (which shall not be earlier than the Revolving Loan Maturity Date or the Term Loan Maturity Date), any provisions relating to amortization (it being agreed that the weighted average life of such loans may be no less than the then current weighted average life of the Closing Date Term Loans and that there shall be no provisions for mandatory prepayments of and offers to prepay the Incremental Term Loans (other than on a ratable basis with the Closing Date Term Loans)) and the interest to accrue and be payable thereon and any fees to be payable in respect thereof, and to effect such other changes as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall deem reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with such Incremental Term Loans.  If the Applicable Margin for any Incremental Term Loans payable to the Lenders in respect of such Incremental Term Loans exceeds the Applicable Margin for the Closing Date Term Loans (determined as of the Closing Date) by more than 1.00%, then (x) the Applicable Margins for the Closing Date Term Loans shall be increased so that the Applicable Margin for the Closing Date Term Loans (determined as of the Closing Date, but giving effect to such increase in the Applicable Margins) is no more than 1.00% less than the Applicable Margin for such Incremental Term Loans and (y) the Applicable Margins for the Revolving Loans shall be increased by a corresponding amount.  For purposes of comparing the Applicable Margins of the Incremental Term Loans and the Closing Date Term Loans, such Applicable Margins shall be calculated in the manner described in the foregoing sentence for each “Tier” of the definition of Applicable Margin (assuming such “Tier” were in effect for the entire term of the Incremental Term Loans and Closing Date Term Loans), and any increase to the Applicable Margins for the Closing Date Term Loans and Revolving Loans shall be made pursuant to the foregoing sentence only with respect to those “Tiers” of the definition of Applicable Margin for which the Applicable Margin for the Closing Date Term Loans is more than 0.50% less than the interest at the 

-94-

corresponding pricing tiers applicable to such Incremental Term Loans.  All Incremental Term Loans shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the other Loans and shall benefit equally and ratably from the Security Documents. 
(b)        Increases in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment.  The Borrower may, at any time prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date, request to increase the Total Revolving Loan Commitment provided, however, that the Borrower shall not make such a request if the conditions set forth in Section 2.17(i) are not satisfied.  Any such request shall be submitted by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly forward copies to the existing Revolving Lenders), specify the proposed Incremental Revolving Effective Date (as defined below) and amount of such proposed increase in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment and be accompanied by a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying that no Event of Default exists or will occur as a result of such increase in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment.  Only those existing Revolving Lenders that agree to increase the Total Revolving Loan Commitment (each, an “Incremental Revolving Lender”) and those New Lenders that agree to commit to increase the Total Revolving Loan Commitment shall be entitled to receive any fees in connection with such increase in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment.  No Revolving Lender shall have any obligation, express or implied, to offer an increase in its Revolving Loan Commitment.  Only the consent of each Incremental Revolving Lender shall be required for an increase in the respective Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.17(b).  No Revolving Lender that elects not to increase the amount of its Revolving Loan Commitment may be replaced in respect of its existing Revolving Loan Commitment as a result thereof without such Revolving Lender’s written consent.
(c)        Identification of Lenders.  Each existing Term Lender (for an Incremental Term Loan Borrowing) or existing Revolving Lender (for an increase in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment) shall, within ten (10) Business Days after the Borrower have submitted their request under Section 2.17(a) or Section 2.17(b), as applicable, specify the amount of the proposed Incremental Term Loan or increase in its Revolving Loan Commitment which it is willing to offer.  To the extent the Incremental Term Loan Commitments of the existing Term Lenders or increased Revolving Loan Commitments of the existing Revolving Lenders, as applicable, are insufficient or at an earlier time agreed to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may designate new lenders who qualify as Eligible Assignees and which are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent as additional Lenders hereunder in accordance with this Section 2.17(c) (each such new Lender being a “New Lender”), which New Lender may advance all or a portion of an Incremental Term Loan Borrowing or provide all or a portion of the increase in the amount of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment.  The Administrative Agent may agree to assist the Borrower in identifying new lenders who qualify as Eligible Assignees, and if the Administrative Agent so agrees, the Borrower may pay a fee to the Administrative Agent solely for the 

-95-

account of the Administrative Agent in connection with such services.  The Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall have discretion jointly to adjust the allocation of an increased aggregate principal amount of Incremental Term Loans among Incremental Term Lenders and New Lenders.  The Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall have discretion jointly to adjust the allocation of an increased aggregate principal amount of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment among Incremental Revolving Lenders and New Lenders.
(d)        Joinder of New Lenders.  Each New Lender shall become an additional party hereto as a New Lender concurrently with the effectiveness of the proposed Incremental Term Loan Borrowing or increase in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment upon its execution of an instrument of joinder (which may contain such modifications to this Agreement and terms and conditions relating thereto as may be necessary solely to ensure that the Incremental Term Loans made by such New Lenders as part of such Incremental Term Loan Borrowings or the Revolving Loans made by such New Lender under the increased Total Revolving Loan Commitment are treated as Obligations for all purposes under the Credit Documents), in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.  Each New Lender shall provide the documentation required by Section 2.12.
(e)        Conditions to Incremental Effective Date.  The obligation of the applicable Incremental Term Lenders and New Lenders to make an Incremental Term Loan is subject to compliance with the terms of this Section 2.17 and the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.17(i), in each case to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent.  The obligation of the applicable Incremental Revolving Lenders and New Lenders to increase the Total Revolving Loan Commitment is subject to compliance by the Borrower with the terms set forth in this Section 2.17 and the reasonable satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.17(i), in case to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent.  Any increase in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment and/or Incremental Term Loan requested by Borrower shall occur on the date proposed by the Borrower if the conditions identified above are complied with (the “Incremental Effective Date”) in the principal amount equal to (i) the amount to which the Incremental Revolving Lenders are willing to commit as an increase in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment or the aggregate amount which the Incremental Term Lenders are willing to advance as an Incremental Term Loan plus (ii) the aggregate amount offered by the New Lenders with respect to the Total Revolving Loan Commitment or an Incremental Term Loan, in either case as adjusted by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent pursuant to the last sentence of Section 2.17(c).
(f)        Funding of Incremental Term Loans; Rebalancing of Revolving Loan Commitments.  On or prior to the Incremental Effective Date, with respect to any Incremental Term Loan, the Administrative Agent shall notify each applicable Incremental Term Lender and New Lender 

-96-

of the amount required to be funded by such Incremental Term Lender or New Lender.  On or prior to the Incremental Effective Date, with respect to any increase in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Incremental Revolving Lender and New Lender of the amount required to be paid by or to such Lender so that the Revolving Loans held by the Revolving Lenders on the Incremental Effective Date (before giving effect to any new Revolving Loans made on such date) shall be held by each Revolving Lender pro rata in accordance with the Revolving Loan Commitments of the Revolving Lenders as adjusted pursuant to the last sentence of Section 2.17(c).  Each Revolving Lender which is required to reduce the amount of Revolving Loans held by it (each such Revolving Lender, a “Decreasing Lender”) shall irrevocably assign, without recourse or warranty of any kind whatsoever (except that each Decreasing Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the Revolving Loans assigned by it under this Section 2.17(f) and that such Revolving Loans are held by such Decreasing Lender free and clear of adverse claims created by it), to each Incremental Revolving Lender and New Lender participating in the applicable increase in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment, and each applicable Incremental Revolving Lender and New Lender shall irrevocably acquire from the Decreasing Lenders, a portion of the principal amount of the Revolving Loans of each Decreasing Lender (collectively, the “Acquired Portion”) outstanding on the Incremental Effective Date (before giving effect to any new Revolving Loans made on such date) in an amount such that the principal amount of the Revolving Loans held by each applicable Incremental Revolving Lender, New Lender and Decreasing Lender as of the Incremental Effective Date shall be held in accordance with each such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Proportionate Share (if any) as of such date.  Such assignment and acquisition shall be effective on the Incremental Effective Date automatically and without any action required on the part of any party other than the payment by the applicable Incremental Revolving Lenders and New Lenders to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Decreasing Lenders of an aggregate amount equal to the Acquired Portion, which amount shall be allocated and paid by the Administrative Agent promptly after receipt in the type of funds received and to the extent practicable on the Incremental Effective Date to the Decreasing Lenders pro rata based upon the respective reductions in the principal amount of the Revolving Loans held by such Revolving Lenders on the Incremental Effective Date (before giving effect to any new Revolving Loans made on such date).  Each of the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders shall adjust its records accordingly to reflect the payment of the Acquired Portion.  The payments to be made in respect of the Acquired Portion shall be made by the applicable Incremental Revolving Lenders and New Lenders to the Administrative Agent in Dollars in immediately available funds at or before 12:00 p.m. on the Incremental Effective Date, such payments to be made by the applicable Incremental Revolving Lenders and New Lenders pro rata based upon the respective increases in the amount of the Revolving Loan Commitments held by such Revolving Lenders on the Incremental Effective Date.
(g)        Required Documentation.  In connection with any Incremental Term Loan Borrowing or increase the Total Revolving Loan Commitment, the Borrower shall execute and deliver 

-97-

such documentation relating to such Incremental Term Loan Borrowing or increase in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, including new or amended Incremental Term Loan Notes or Revolving Loan Notes, any joinder agreements related to a New Lender, reaffirmations of the Guaranty executed by the Guarantors, copies of resolutions regarding any Incremental Term Loan Borrowing or increase in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment certified as true and correct by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, amendments and legal opinions.
(h)        Prepayments of LIBOR Loans.  To the extent any of the Revolving Loans acquired by the applicable Incremental Revolving Lenders and New Lenders from the Decreasing Lenders pursuant to Section 2.17(f) above are LIBOR Loans and the Incremental Effective Date is not the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Loans, the Decreasing Lenders shall be entitled to compensation from the Borrower as provided in Section 2.13 (as if Borrower had prepaid such Revolving Loans in an amount equal to the Acquired Portion on the Incremental Effective Date).
(i)        Conditions to All Incremental Term Loans and Increases in Total Revolving Loan Commitments.  No Incremental Term Borrowing or increase in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment may be made under this Agreement unless, after giving effect to such Incremental Term Loan Borrowing or increase in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment, each of the following conditions is satisfied:
(i)        The aggregate principal amount of all Incremental Term Loan Borrowings made during the term of this Agreement, together with the aggregate amount of all increases in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.17 during the term of this Agreement, does not exceed $75,000,000;
(ii)        The proposed Incremental Term Loan Borrowing or increase in the Total Revolving Loan Commitments shall be equal to $5,000,000 or a multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof;
(iii)        The aggregate number of Incremental Term Loan Borrowings made during the term of this Agreement, together with the aggregate number of all increases in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment during the term of this Agreement, does not exceed three (3);
(iv)        

-98-

The Borrower shall not have previously reduced or cancelled the Total Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to Section 2.04(a); and
(v)         No Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or shall occur as a result of such Incremental Term Loan Borrowing or increase in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment.  
2.18.        One-Time Extension Option.  
(a)         The Borrower may make a one-time request, by written notice to the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders not less than 30 days prior to the earliest Maturity Date, that the Revolving Loan Maturity Date, the Term Loan Maturity Date and the Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date (as to each tranche of Loans, the “Existing Maturity Date”) be extended for one year (the “Requested Maturity Date”).  Each Lender, acting in its sole discretion, shall, not later than the date which is 10 days after the receipt by the Lenders of any such notice from the Borrower, notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its election to extend or not to extend the Maturity Date with respect to its Commitments and Loans.  Any Lender that does not timely notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its election to extend the Maturity Date shall be deemed to have elected not to extend the Maturity Date with respect to its Commitments and Loans (any Lender that timely notifies the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of an election not to extend its Commitments and Loans and any Lender so deemed to have elected not to extend its Revolving Loan Commitment, Revolving Loans and Term Loans being referred to as a “Terminating Lender”).  The election of any Lender to agree to a requested extension shall not obligate any other Lender so to agree.  For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall only have the option to either elect to or decline to extend its Maturity Date for all of its Commitments and Loans.  
(b)         If and only if Lenders holding at least 35% of the aggregate amount of Revolving Loan Commitments and Term Loans on the date of the notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18(a) above (including Revolving Loan Commitments and Term Loans of all Terminating Lenders on such date) shall have agreed during the period referred to in such Section 2.18(a) to extend the Existing Maturity Date, then (A) the Maturity Date of the Lenders other than Terminating Lenders (each, a “Continuing Lender” and collectively, the “Continuing Lenders”) shall, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, be extended to the Requested Maturity Date, and as to such Lenders the term “Maturity Date”, as used herein, shall on and after the date as of which the requested extension is effective mean such Requested Maturity Date; provided that if such date is not a Business Day, then 

-99-

such Requested Maturity Date shall be the next preceding Business Day, (B) the Revolving Loan Commitments, Revolving Loans and Term Loans of the Terminating Lenders shall continue until the Existing Maturity Date, and shall then terminate (and the Total Revolving Loan Commitment shall be permanently reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments of the Terminating Lenders on such date), and as to the Terminating Lenders, the term “Maturity Date”, as used herein, shall continue to mean the Existing Maturity Date and (C) on the Existing Maturity Date, the amount of the participations held by each Revolving Lender in each Letter of Credit then outstanding shall be adjusted automatically such that, after giving effect to such adjustments, the Revolving Lenders that are Continuing Lenders shall hold participations in each such Letter of Credit in proportion to their respective Revolving Proportionate Shares.  
(c)         In the event that the Existing Maturity Date shall have been extended for the Continuing Lenders in accordance with Section 2.18(b) and, in connection with such extension, there are Terminating Lenders, the Borrower may, at its own expense, require any Terminating Lender to transfer and assign in whole or in part, without recourse (in accordance with Section 8.05) all or part of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Assignee Lender (which Assignee Lender may be another Lender, if another Lender accepts such assignment) that shall assume such assigned obligations and that shall agree that its Revolving Loan Commitment and Term Loans will have the Maturity Date in effect for Continuing Lenders pursuant to Section 2.18(b); provided, however, that (i) the Borrower shall have received a written consent of the Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender in the case of an Assignee Lender that is not a Lender (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld) and (ii) the assigning Lender shall have received from the Borrower or such Assignee Lender full payment in immediately available funds of the principal of and interest accrued to the date of such payment on the Loans made by it hereunder to the extent that such Loans are subject to such assignment, any fees accrued on such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment to the date of such payment and all other amounts owed to it hereunder (including any amounts that would be payable to the assigning Lender pursuant to Section 2.13 if such assignment were, instead, a prepayment of the Loans of such Lender).  Any such Assignee Lender’s Maturity Date shall be the Maturity Date in effect at the time of such assignment for the Continuing Lenders.  The Borrower shall not have any right to require a Lender to assign any part of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.18(c) unless it has notified such Lender in writing of its intention to require the assignment thereof at least ten days prior to the proposed assignment date.
(d)         Conditions to Effectiveness of Extensions.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the extension of the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section shall not be effective with respect to any Lender unless:

-100-

(i)    no Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such extension and after giving effect thereto; and
(ii)         The representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in Article IV and in the other Credit Documents are true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent that such representation and warranty is qualified by materiality, in which case such representation and warranty must be true in all respects) on and as of the extension date, or if such representation speaks as of an earlier date, as of such earlier date.
(e)         Conflicting Provisions.  To the extent inconsistent, this Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.10 or Section 8.04 to the contrary.  
ARTICLE III.     CONDITIONS PRECEDENT.
3.01.        Initial Conditions Precedent.  The Closing Date and the obligations of the Lenders to make the Loans comprising the initial Borrowing are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth on Schedule 3.01.
3.02.        Conditions Precedent to each Credit Event.  The occurrence of each Credit Event (including the initial Borrowings occurring on the Closing Date and any Incremental Term Loan Borrowing) is subject to the further conditions that:
(g)        The Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent and, if applicable, the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, the Notice of Borrowing or Letter of Credit Application, as the case may be, for such Credit Event in accordance with this Agreement; and
(h)        On the date such Credit Event is to occur and after giving effect to such Credit Event, the following shall be true and correct:
(xii)        The representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in Article IV and in the 

-101-

other Credit Documents are true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent that such representation and warranty is qualified by materiality, in which case such representation and warranty must be true in all respects) as if made on such date, or if such representation speaks as of an earlier date, as of such earlier date; 
(xiii)        No Default has occurred and is continuing or will result from such Credit Event; and
(xiv)        No material adverse change in the business, assets, liabilities, operations, performance or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower individually or the Credit Parties (taken as a whole) has occurred since December 31, 2013.
The submission by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent of each Notice of Borrowing and each Letter of Credit Application shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Borrower that each of the statements set forth above in this Section 3.02(b) is true and correct as of the date of such notice.
ARTICLE IV.    REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.
4.01.        Representations and Warranties.

(k)        Enforceability.  Each Credit Document executed, or to be executed, by each Credit Party has been, or will be, duly executed and delivered by such Credit Party and constitutes, or will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Credit Party, enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with its terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity. 
(l)        Non-Contravention.

(iv)        All Governmental Authorizations required for the operations of the Loan Parties have been duly obtained and are in full force and effect without any known conflict with the rights of others and free from any unduly burdensome restrictions, except where any such failure to obtain such Governmental Authorizations or any such conflict or restriction could not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.  No Loan Party has received any written notice or other written communications from any Governmental Authority regarding (A) any revocation, withdrawal, suspension, termination or modification of, or the imposition of any material conditions with respect to, any Governmental Authorization, or (B) any other limitations on the conduct of business by any Loan Party, except where any such revocation, withdrawal, suspension, termination, modification, imposition or limitation could not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
(v)        No Governmental Authorization is required for either (x) the pledge or grant by any Credit Party as applicable of the Liens purported to be created in favor of the Administrative Agent in connection herewith or any other Credit Document or (y) the exercise by the Administrative Agent of any rights or remedies in respect of any Collateral (whether specifically granted or created pursuant to any of the Security Documents or created or provided for by any Governmental Rule), except for (1) such Governmental Authorizations that have been obtained and are in full force and effect, and (2) filings or recordings contemplated in connection with this Agreement or any Security Document.

-104-

(including derivative actions), suits, proceedings (including arbitration proceedings or mediation proceedings) or investigations are pending or threatened in writing against any Loan Party at law or in equity in any court, arbitration proceeding or before any other Governmental Authority which (i) could reasonably be expected to (alone or in the aggregate) have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) seek to enjoin, either directly or indirectly, the execution, delivery or performance by any Loan Party of the Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby or any documents executed in connection therewith.

(v)         As of the Closing Date, all real property owned by the Credit Parties with a value in excess of $1,000,000 is described in Schedule 4.01(h) to the Disclosure Letter.  The Loan Parties own and have good and marketable title, or a valid leasehold interest in, all their respective material properties and assets as reflected in the most recent Financial Statements of the Loan Parties delivered to the Administrative Agent (except those assets and properties disposed of in the ordinary course of business or otherwise in compliance with this Agreement since the date of such Financial Statements) and all respective material assets and properties acquired by the Loan Parties since such date (except those disposed of in the ordinary course of business or otherwise in compliance with this Agreement), except, in each case, such defects in title that, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(i)        As of the Closing Date (or as of the date any Loan Party becomes party to the Credit Documents after the Closing Date, as to such Loan Party), (x) the execution and delivery of the Security Documents by the Loan Parties, together with the filing of any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and the recording of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office filings and U.S. Copyright Office filings delivered to the Administrative Agent for filing and recording, are effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, as security for the Obligations or the obligations of a Guarantor under the Credit Documents (as applicable), a valid and perfected (to the extent such security interest may be perfected by the filing a Uniform Commercial Code financing statement) first priority Lien on all of the Collateral as of the Closing Date (or as of the date any Loan Party becomes party to the Credit Documents after the Closing Date, as to such Loan Party) (subject only to Permitted Liens), and (y) all filings and other actions necessary or desirable to perfect and maintain the perfection and first priority status of such Liens have been duly made or taken and remain in full force and effect.  In the case of accounts subject to a Control Agreement, when such Control Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower or applicable Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and the applicable holder of such accounts, the Security Agreement (together with such Control Agreements) shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Borrower or Guarantor in such Collateral, as security for the Obligations or the obligations of a Guarantor under the Credit Documents (as applicable), in each case prior and superior to the Lien of any other Person, except to the extent set forth in the applicable Control Agreement.

There are no outstanding subscriptions, options, conversion rights, warrants or other agreements or commitments of any nature whatsoever (firm or conditional) obligating the Loan Parties (other than Holdings) to issue, deliver or sell, or 

-106-

cause to be issued, delivered or sold, any additional Equity Securities of such Loan Parties, or obligating the Loan Parties to grant, extend or enter into any such agreement or commitment.  All Equity Securities of the Loan Parties have been offered and sold in compliance with all federal and state securities laws and all other Requirements of Law, except where any failure to comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(iv)        Each Employee Benefit Plan complies, in both form and operation, in all material respects, with its terms, ERISA and the IRC, and no condition exists or event has occurred with respect to any such Employee Benefit Plan which would result in the incurrence by any Loan Party or any ERISA Affiliate of any material liability, fine or penalty.  Each Employee Benefit Plan, related trust agreement, arrangement and commitment of any Loan Party or any ERISA Affiliate is legally valid and binding and in full force and effect.  No Employee Benefit Plan is being audited or investigated by any government agency or is subject to any pending or threatened claim or suit.  No Loan Party or ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the IRC with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan which would result in the incurrence by any Loan Party or ERISA Affiliate of any material liability.  
(v)        No Loan Party or ERISA Affiliate contributes to or has any material contingent obligations to any Multiemployer Plan.

No Loan Party or ERISA Affiliate has been notified that any Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or insolvent under and within the meaning of Section 4241 or Section 4245 of ERISA or that any 

-107-

Multiemployer Plan intends to terminate or has been terminated under Section 4041A of ERISA.
(vi)        No Loan Party has (A) engaged in any transaction prohibited by any Governmental Rule applicable to any Foreign Plan; (B) failed to make full payment when due of all amounts due as contributions to any Foreign Plan; or (C) otherwise failed to comply with the requirements of any Governmental Rule applicable to any Foreign Plan, where singly or cumulatively, the above could have a Material Adverse Effect.  
(t)        Margin Stock; Other Regulations.  No Credit Party owns any Margin Stock which, in the aggregate, would constitute a substantial part of the assets of the Borrower or the Credit Parties (taken as a whole), and not more than 25% of the value (as determined by any reasonable method) of the assets of any Credit Party is represented by Margin Stock.

6.02.        Remedies.  At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default referred to in Section 6.01(f) or 6.01(g)), the 

-141-

Administrative Agent may or shall, upon instructions from the Required Lenders, by written notice to the Borrower, (a) terminate the Commitments, any obligation of the L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions and the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans, (b) declare all or a portion of the outstanding Obligations (other than in connection with Lender Rate Contracts or Lender Bank Products) payable by the Borrower to be immediately due and payable and/or (c) require that the Borrower Cash Collateralize the Obligations in an amount equal to 105% of the then Effective Amount of the L/C Obligations, in each case, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything contained herein or in the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding.  Upon the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default described in Section 6.01(f) or 6.01(g), immediately and without notice, (1) the Commitments, any obligation of the L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions and the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans shall automatically terminate, (2) the obligation of the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the Obligations in an amount equal to 105% of the then Effective Amount of the L/C Obligations shall automatically become effective, which amounts shall be immediately pledged and delivered to the Administrative Agent as security for the Obligations and (3) all outstanding Obligations payable by the Borrower hereunder shall automatically become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything contained herein or in the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding.  In addition to the foregoing remedies, upon the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may exercise any other right, power or remedy available to it under any of the Credit Documents or otherwise by law.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Credit Documents, all Cash Collateral pledged by the Borrower as contemplated by Section 2.02 and Section 2.16(c)(iii), shall first be applied to reimburse the L/C Issuer in respect of any amounts that a Lender has failed to fund under Section 2.02(c), then to the remaining L/C Obligations and then to the remaining Obligations in the manner set forth below:
The proceeds of any sale, disposition or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral (subject to the prior sentence with respect to Cash Collateral) and any payments received by the Administrative Agent with respect to any Guaranty shall, in each case, be distributed by the Administrative Agent in the following order of priorities:
First, to the Administrative Agent, in an amount sufficient to pay in full the fees, costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent in connection with such sale, disposition or other realization, including all fees, costs, expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs, and any and all other unpaid and unreimbursed liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, fees, expenses or disbursements of the Administrative Agent; 
Second, to the Lenders and Lender Rate Contract Counterparties in an amount equal to accrued interest then due and payable on the Obligations (including any net scheduled payments in respect of Lender Rate Contracts 

-142-

but excluding any obligations in respect of Lender Bank Products and excluding the Termination Value of any Lender Rate Contracts);
Third, pari passu and ratably, to (i) the Lenders in an amount equal to the principal amount of the outstanding Loans and L/C Borrowings and to Cash Collateralize the remaining L/C Obligations on a pro rata basis in accordance with the then outstanding principal amount of the Loans and L/C Obligations (with the portion allocated to the Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations to be applied first to repay the Swing Line Loans in full, second to repay the Revolving Loans in full and then to Cash Collateralize the Obligations in an amount equal to 105% of the then Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations), (ii) to the Lender Rate Contract Counterparties in an amount equal to Obligations owed in connection with any Lender Rate Contract the terms of which comply with this Agreement (which amount, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include the Termination Value), and (iii) to the Lender Bank Product Providers in an amount equal to any Obligations related to Lender Bank Products which are then unpaid;
Fourth, to the Lenders in an amount equal to any other Obligations which are then unpaid; 
Finally, upon payment in full of all of the Obligations, to the Person(s) legally entitled thereto.  
No application of payments will cure any Event of Default, or prevent acceleration, or continued acceleration, of amounts payable under the Credit Documents, or prevent the exercise, or continued exercise, of rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder or thereunder or at law or in equity.
ARTICLE VII.    ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND RELATIONS AMONG LENDERS.
7.01.        Appointment, Powers and Immunities.
(g)        Each Lender (on its own behalf or on behalf of any Affiliate of such Lender that is party to a Lender Rate Contract or providing Lender Bank Products) hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as its agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents with such powers as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Each Lender (on its own behalf and on behalf of any Affiliate of such Lender that is party to a Lender Rate Contract or providing Lender Bank Products) hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the 

-143-

provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and to exercise such powers as are set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or the other Credit Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting as administrative agent for the Lenders only and the Administrative Agent is not acting as administrative agent for any other Lender Parties; the Lender Parties (other than the Lenders) that are receiving the benefit of the Collateral are receiving such benefit as an accommodation from the Administrative Agent in its capacity as collateral agent for such Lender Parties and the Administrative Agent shall have no liability whatsoever to such Lender Parties.  The Co-Syndication Agents and the Joint Lead Arrangers shall not have any duties or responsibilities or any liabilities under this Agreement or any other Credit Documents and any amendments, consents, waivers or any other actions taken in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents shall not, except to the extent expressly set forth in Section 8.04(e), require the consent of the Co-Syndication Agents or Joint Lead Arrangers, in such capacity.  The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document, be a trustee for any Lender (or any Affiliate of such Lender that is party to a Lender Rate Contract or providing Lender Bank Products) or have any fiduciary duty to any Lender (or any Affiliate of such Lender that is party to a Lender Rate Contract or providing Lender Bank Products).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any applicable Governmental Rules.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible to any other Lender for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party contained in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document, for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or for any failure by any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.  The Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible to any Lender for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors shall be responsible to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Credit Document or in connection herewith or therewith, except to the extent determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen from its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Except as otherwise provided under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to the Credit Documents as shall be directed by the Required Lenders or in the absence of such direction, such action as the Administrative Agent in good faith deems advisable under the circumstances. 
(h)        Any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 7.01(a) for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder and hereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall 

-144-

be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article VII, Section 8.02 and Section 8.03 as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.
(i)        The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Revolving Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith until such time (and except for so long) as the Administrative Agent may agree at the request of the Required Lenders to act for the L/C Issuer with respect thereto; provided, however, that the L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Administrative Agent in this Article VII with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the application and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to the Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in this Article VII included the L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to the L/C Issuer.  
7.02.        Reliance by the Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender.  The Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to rely upon any certificate, notice or other document (including any facsimile or e-mail) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons (including any certificate, notice or other document from a Loan Party that a sale, transfer, or other disposition of Collateral is permitted by Section 5.02(c)), and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent with reasonable care.  As to any other matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action or exercise any discretion, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting upon instructions of the Required Lenders and shall in all cases be fully protected by the Lenders in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or under any other Credit Document in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders (or all Lenders if required by Section 8.04), and such instructions of the Required Lenders (or all the Lenders as the case may be) and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders.
7.03.        Defaults.  The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default unless the Administrative Agent has received a written notice from a Lender or the Borrower, referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default”.  If the Administrative Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.  The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent 

-145-

may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Lenders.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the order and manner in which the Lenders’ rights and remedies are to be exercised (including, without limitation, the enforcement by any Lender of its Note) shall be determined by the Required Lenders in their sole discretion.
7.04.        Lender Indemnification.  Without limiting the Obligations of the Borrower hereunder, each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, ratably in accordance with its aggregate Proportionate Share of all Obligations and Commitments, for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in refusing to take or in continuing to take any action hereunder unless 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.  The obligations of each Lender under this Section 7.04 shall survive the payment and performance of the Obligations, the termination of this Agreement and any Lender ceasing to be a party to this Agreement (with respect to events which occurred prior to the time such Lender ceased to be a Lender hereunder). 
7.05.        Non-Reliance.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of the business, prospects, management, financial condition and affairs of the Loan Parties and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and agrees 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 appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors shall (a) be required to keep any Lender informed as to the performance or observance by any Loan Party of the obligations under this Agreement or any other document referred to or provided for herein or to make inquiry of, or to inspect the properties or books of any Loan Party; (b) have any duty or responsibility to disclose to or otherwise provide any Lender, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose or otherwise provide any Lender, with any credit or other 

-146-

information concerning any Loan Party which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity, except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder or the other Credit Documents; or (c) be responsible to any Lender for (i) any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Loan Party or any officer, employee or agent of any Loan Party in this Agreement or in any of the other Credit Documents, (ii) the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any Credit Document, (iii) the value or sufficiency of the Collateral or the validity or perfection of any of the liens or security interests intended to be created by the Credit Documents, or (iv) any failure by any Loan Party to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any other Credit Document. 
7.06.        Resignation of the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders.  Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which successor Administrative Agent, if not a Lender, shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower; provided, however, that the Borrower shall have no right to approve a successor Administrative Agent if a Default has occurred and is continuing.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from the duties and obligations thereafter arising hereunder; provided that the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from the duties and obligations arising hereunder from and after the end of such thirty (30) day period even if no successor has been appointed.  If no such successor has been appointed, the Required Lenders shall act as the Administrative Agent, hereunder and under the other Credit Documents.  After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VII shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent.  The successor Administrative Agent (or if there is no successor, one of the Lenders appointed by the Required Lenders that accepts such appointment) shall also simultaneously replace the then existing Administrative Agent and the then existing Administrative Agent shall be fully released as “L/C Issuer” and “Swing Line Lender” hereunder pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the then existing Administrative Agent, and any successor Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to this Section 7.06 shall, upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor “L/C Issuer” and “Swing Line Lender” for all purposes hereunder.
7.07.        Collateral Matters and Guaranty Matters.  

-147-

(j)        The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized by each Lender (on its own behalf and on behalf of any Affiliate of such Lender that is party to a Lender Rate Contract or providing Lender Bank Products), without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender (or any Affiliate of such Lender that is party to a Lender Rate Contract or providing Lender Bank Products), and without the obligation to take any such action, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or any Security Document which may from time to time be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens of the Security Documents.
(k)        Each of the Lenders (on its own behalf and on behalf of any Affiliate of such Lender that is party to a Lender Rate Contract or providing Lender Bank Products) irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release (and to execute and deliver such documents, instruments and agreements as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary to release) any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments and the full Cash Collateralization of the then outstanding L/C Obligations and the payment in full of all Loans and all other Obligations payable under this Agreement and under the other Credit Documents (other than contingent indemnification obligations and Obligations in respect of Lender Rate Contracts and Lender Bank Products except to the extent the Administrative Agent has received prior written notice from the applicable Lender Party of any such Lender Rate Contract or the existence of such Obligations in respect of Lender Bank Products); (ii) constituting property of the Loan Parties which is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of in connection with any transaction not prohibited by this Agreement or the Credit Documents; (iii) constituting property leased to the Loan Parties under an operating lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction not prohibited by this Agreement or the Credit Documents or which will concurrently expire and which has not been and is not intended by the Loan Parties to be, renewed or extended; (iv) consisting of an instrument, if the Indebtedness evidenced thereby has been paid in full; or (v) if approved or consented to by those of the Lenders required by Section 8.04.  In the case of clause (ii) above involving a sale of a Guarantor, the Lenders also irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to release such Guarantor from the applicable guaranty.  Upon request by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders will (and will cause their Affiliates that are party to Lender Rate Contracts or provided Lender Bank Products to) confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 7.07. 
(l)         Unless all the Lenders otherwise consent in writing, any and all cash collateral for the Obligations shall be released to the Borrower, to the extent not applied to the Obligations, only if (i) the Commitments have been terminated (ii) all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations and Obligations in respect of Lender Rate Contracts and Lender Bank Products except to the extent the Administrative Agent has received prior written 

-148-

notice from the applicable Lender Party of any such Lender Rate Contract or the existence of such Obligations in respect of Lender Bank Products) have been paid in full and are no longer outstanding, including, without limitation, any L/C Obligations or any other contingent obligations. 
7.08.        Performance of Conditions.  For the purpose of determining fulfillment by the Borrower and the other Loan Parties of conditions precedent specified in Sections 3.01 and 3.02 only, each Lender shall be deemed to have consented to, and approved or accepted, or to be satisfied with each document or other matter sent by the Administrative Agent to such Lender for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required under Article III to be consented to, or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to, that Lender, unless an officer of the Administrative Agent who is responsible for the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents shall have received written notice from that Lender prior to the making of the requested Loan or the issuance of the requested Letter of Credit specifying its objection thereto and either (i) such objection shall not have been withdrawn by written notice to the Administrative Agent or (ii) in the case of any condition to the making of a Loan, that Lender shall not have made available to the Administrative Agent that Lender’s Revolving Proportionate Share of such Loan or Letter of Credit.  
7.09.        The Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity; Other Relationships.  The Administrative Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of banking or other business with any Loan Party and its Affiliates as though the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder.  With respect to Loans, if any, made by the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender, the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, and the terms “Lender” or “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender.  The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to hold a fiduciary, trust or other special relationship with any Lender and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.  
7.10.        Collateral Matters/Lender Rate Contracts/Lender Bank Products.  Each Lender on its own behalf on behalf of its Affiliates understands and agrees that (a) counterparties to Lender Rate Contracts and Lender Bank Products will have the benefits of the Collateral as set forth in the Credit Documents so long as such counterparty is a Lender or an Affiliate of a Person that is a Lender and (b) if the Obligations (excluding Obligations in respect of Lender Rate Contracts and Lender Bank Products except to the extent the Administrative Agent has 

-149-

received prior written notice from the applicable Lender Party of any such Lender Rate Contract or such Obligations in respect of Lender Bank Products) are repaid as described in Section 7.07, the Collateral will be released as described in Section 7.07 and such Lender and its Affiliates will no longer have the benefits of the Collateral.  
7.11.        Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(d)        to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, and out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel in connection with the foregoing and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.02(i), 2.02(j), 2.05, 8.02 and 8.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(e)        to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, and out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel in connection with the foregoing, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.05, 8.02 and 8.03.

Each Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Conversion and Notice of Interest Period Selection shall be given by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent’s office located at the address referred to above during the Administrative Agent’s normal business hours; provided, however, that any such notice received by the Administrative Agent after 11:00 a.m. on any Business Day shall be deemed received by the Administrative Agent on the next Business Day.  In any case where this Agreement authorizes notices, requests, demands or other communications by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to be made by telephone or facsimile, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may conclusively presume that anyone purporting to be a person designated in any incumbency certificate or other similar document received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender is such a person.
(g)        The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may make any material delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, as well as any amendments, waivers, consents, and other written information, documents, instruments and other materials relating to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or any other materials or matters relating to this Agreement, the other Credit Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby (collectively, the “Communications”) available to the Lenders by posting such notices on an electronic delivery system (which may be provided by the Administrative Agent, an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, or any Person that is not an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent), such as The Debt Exchange, Inc., SyndTrak Online or a substantially similar electronic system (the “Platform”).  The Borrower acknowledges that (i) the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution, (ii) the Platform is provided “as is” and “as available” and (iii) neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Affiliates warrants the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, sufficiency, or sequencing of the Communications posted on the Platform.  The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates expressly disclaim with respect to the Platform any liability for errors in transmission, incorrect or incomplete downloading, delays in posting or delivery, or problems accessing 

-152-

the Communications posted on the Platform and any liability for any losses, costs, expenses or liabilities that may be suffered or incurred in connection with the Platform except for liability determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to be due to the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in connection with the Platform.  Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) (a “Notice”) specifying that any Communication has been posted to the Platform shall for purposes of this Agreement constitute effective delivery to such Lender of such information, documents or other materials comprising such Communication.  Each Lender agrees (i) to notify, on or before the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent in writing of such Lender’s e-mail address to which a Notice may be sent (and from time to time thereafter to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record an effective e-mail address for such Lender) and (ii) that any Notice may be sent to such e-mail address.  
8.02.        Expenses.  The Borrower shall pay within 30 days of written demand therefor (accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation), whether or not any Credit Event occurs hereunder, (a) all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses, including syndication expenses, travel expenses, consultants’ and experts’ fees and expenses and all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of one primary counsel, and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for the Administrative Agent and WFS taken as a whole, in each case, incurred by the Administrative Agent and WFS in connection with the syndication of the facilities provided hereunder, due diligence, the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of, and the exercise of its duties under, this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of amendments, waivers, consents, modifications and supplements related to the Credit Documents, (b) all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of the Administrative Agent and WFS in connection with the use of any Platform, (c) any and all excise, sales or other similar taxes and (d) all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses, including travel expenses, consultants’ and experts’ fees and expenses and all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of one primary counsel, and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders taken as a whole, and in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to each affected party, in each case, incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the enforcement or attempted enforcement of any of the Obligations or Credit Documents or in preserving any of the Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ rights and remedies (including, without limitation, all such fees and expenses incurred in connection with any “workout” or restructuring affecting the Credit Documents or the Obligations or any bankruptcy or similar proceeding involving any Loan Party).  The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 8.02 shall survive the payment and performance of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.  

-153-

8.03.        Indemnification.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, and in addition to any other indemnity set forth in the Credit Documents, the Borrower agrees to (a) protect, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Co-Syndication Agents, the Lenders (including without limitation the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender) and their Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, attorneys, agents, trustees and advisors (collectively, “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, judgments, costs, disbursements, or expenses of any kind or nature and from any actions, suits, claims or demands (including in respect of or for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of one primary counsel, and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders taken as a whole, and in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to each affected Indemnitee) arising on account of or in connection with any matter or thing or action or failure to act by Indemnitees, or any of them, arising out of or relating to (i) the Credit Documents or any transaction contemplated thereby or related thereto, including the making of any Loans, the funding of any Unreimbursed Amounts and any use by the Borrower of any proceeds of the Loans or the Letters of Credit, (ii) any Environmental Damages, (iii) any claims for brokerage fees or commissions in connection with the Credit Documents or any transaction contemplated thereby or in connection with the Borrower’s failure to conclude any other financing, and to reimburse each Indemnitee on demand for all legal and other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any of the foregoing, (iv) the use of any Platform or (v) any and all excise, sales or other similar taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Security Documents, including any penalties, claims or other losses resulting from any delay in paying such excise, sales or other similar taxes and (b) reimburse each Indemnitee for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of one primary counsel, and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders taken as a whole, and in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to each affected Indemnitee in connection with such Indemnitee’s investigation or defense of any of the foregoing; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 8.03 shall obligate the Borrower to protect, indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Indemnitee against any such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, judgments, costs, disbursements, or expenses to the extent determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen out of (i) such Indemnitee’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, (ii) a material breach in bad faith of the obligations of such Indemnitee under the Credit Documents or (iii) any dispute solely among Indemnitees, other than any claims against the Administrative Agent or WFS in its respective capacity or in fulfilling its role as Administrative Agent or Joint Lead Arranger or any similar role under the Credit Documents, and other than any claims arising out of any act or omission on the part of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof.  In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding to which the indemnity set forth in this Section 8.03 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is 

-154-

brought by the Borrower, a Loan Party, the holders of the Borrower’s or any Loan Party’s Equity Securities, any creditor of the Borrower or another Loan Party, an Indemnitee or any other Person and whether or not an Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto.  Upon receiving knowledge of any action, suit, claim or demand asserted by a third party that the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger, any Co-Syndication Agent or any Lender believes is covered by this indemnity, the Administrative Agent, the applicable Joint Lead Arranger, the applicable Co-Syndication Agent or such Lender, as applicable, shall give the Borrower notice of the matter with reasonable promptness; provided, however, that the failure, or any delay, of the Administrative Agent, such Joint Lead Arranger, such Co-Syndication Agent or such Lender to so notify the Borrower shall not relieve the Borrower from its obligations under this Section 8.03 or result in any liability of the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Co-Syndication Agents or the Lenders.  In connection with any such action, suit, claim or demand, the Administrative Agent may select one primary counsel, and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for the Indemnitees taken as a whole, and in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to each affected Indemnitee, or request that the Borrower defend such action, suit, claim or demand, with legal counsel satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, in each case, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense; provided, however, that  the Administrative Agent, the applicable Joint Lead Arranger, the applicable Co-Syndication Agent or such Lender shall have the right to defend, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, any such matter that is in connection with a formal proceeding instituted by any Governmental Authority having authority to regulate or oversee any aspect of the Administrative Agent’s, the applicable Joint Lead Arranger’s, the applicable Co-Syndication Agent’s or such Lender’s business or that of its Affiliates.  The Administrative Agent, the applicable Joint Lead Arranger, the applicable Co-Syndication Agent or such Lender may also require the Borrower to defend the matter.  In the event an Indemnitee (or any of its officers, directors or employees) appears as a witness in any action or proceeding brought against the Borrower in which an Indemnitee is not named as a defendant, the Borrower agrees to reimburse such Indemnitee for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it (including reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of counsel) in connection with its appearing as a witness.  No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.  The Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of each Indemnitee affected thereby (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld), settle any threatened or pending claim or action that would give rise to the right of any Indemnitee to claim indemnification hereunder unless such settlement (x) includes a full and unconditional release of all liabilities arising out of such claim or action against such Indemnitee and (y) does not include any statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnitee.  The Borrower agrees that no Indemnitee shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort, or otherwise) to the Borrower or its Affiliates or to their respective equity holders or creditors arising out of, related to or in connection with any aspect of the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent such liability is determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of 

-155-

competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnitee’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct or a material breach in bad faith of the obligations such Indemnitee under the Credit Documents.  All payment from the Borrower under this Section 8.03 shall be due and payable within 30 days of written demand therefor (accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation).  The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 8.03 shall survive the payment and performance of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.  
8.04.        Waivers; Amendments.  Any term, covenant, agreement or condition of this Agreement or any other Credit Document may be amended or waived, and any consent under this Agreement or any other Credit Document may be given, if such amendment, waiver or consent is in writing and is signed by the Borrower and the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Required Lenders with the written approval of the Required Lenders) or all of the Lenders if expressly required herein; provided, however, that:
(c)        Any amendment, waiver or consent which would (i) amend the definition of “Required Lenders” or “Required Revolving Lenders”, or modify in any other manner the number or percentage of the Lenders required to make any determinations or to waive any rights under, or to modify any provision of, this Agreement (other than “Required Lenders” or “Required Revolving Lenders”), (ii) increase the Total Revolving Loan Commitment (except as contemplated by Section 2.17), the Total Term Loan Commitment or the Incremental Term Loan Commitment of any Lender, (iii) extend any Maturity Date, (iv) reduce the principal of or interest on any Loan or L/C Borrowing or any fees or other amounts payable for the account of the Lenders hereunder, (v) extend any date fixed for any payment of the principal of or interest on any Loans or any fees or other amounts payable for the account of the Lenders, (vi) amend this Section 8.04 or Section 2.10 or (vii) increase the dollar amounts in Section 2.17, must be in writing and signed or approved in writing by all of the Lenders directly adversely affected thereby.
(d)         Any amendment, waiver or consent which releases any Credit Party or all or substantially all of the Collateral must be in writing and signed or approved in writing by all Lenders and, to the extent not included therein, all Lender Rate Contract Counterparties that have provided the Administrative Agent with prior written notice of their status as such, except that (i) any such release in connection with a sale or other disposition of Collateral authorized by Section 5.02(c) may be executed by the Administrative Agent and shall not require the approval of any Lenders and (ii) any amendment, waiver or consent which modifies the terms of Section 5.02(c) (including any modification relating to the prepayment of proceeds from any such sale or other disposition) shall require the consent of the Required Lenders; 

-156-

(e)        Any amendment, waiver or consent which increases or decreases the Revolving Proportionate Share of any Lender must be in writing and signed by such Lender (other than any such document that implements the provisions of Section 2.17); 
(f)        Any amendment, waiver or consent which affects the rights or duties of the Swing Line Lender under this Agreement must be in writing and signed by the Swing Line Lender;
(g)        Any amendment, waiver or consent which affects the rights of WFS under Section 8.02 must be in writing and signed by WFS; and any amendment, waiver or consent which affects the rights of a Joint Lead Arranger or a Co-Syndication Agent under Section 8.03 or this Section 8.04 must be in writing and signed by such Joint Lead Arranger or such Co-Syndication Agent, as applicable;
(h)        Any amendment, waiver or consent which would amend the application of proceeds set forth in Section 6.02 must be in writing and signed or approved in writing by all Lenders and, to the extent not included therein, all Lender Rate Contract Counterparties that have provided the Administrative Agent with prior written notice of their status as such;
(i)         Any amendment, waiver or consent which affects the rights or duties of the L/C Issuer under this Agreement or any Letter of Credit Application relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it must be in writing and signed by the L/C Issuer; and
(j)         Any amendment, waiver or consent which affects the rights or obligations of the Administrative Agent must be in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent; 
Any amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or consent pursuant to this Section 8.04 shall apply equally to, and shall be binding upon, each of the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders.  
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Defaulting Lender shall not have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the (i) Revolving Proportionate Share of such Defaulting Lender may not be increased, (ii) the Maturity Date of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender, as applicable, may not be extended, and (iii) principal and interest owing to such Defaulting Lender may not be reduced, in each case without the consent of such Defaulting Lender.  This paragraph is referred to as the “Defaulting Lender Amendment Paragraph.”

-157-

For the avoidance of doubt, the application of the provisions of Section 2.01(b) of the Guaranty or any similar provisions in any other Credit Document: (1) is automatic to the extent applicable, (2) is not an amendment or modification of the Guaranty or any other Credit Document and (3) does not require the consent or approval of any Person.
In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, (w) any Incremental Term Loan Amendment may, without the consent of any Lenders other than the Incremental Term Lenders (if any) and New Lenders (if any) advancing the Incremental Term Loans subject thereto, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of the Incremental Term Loans (subject to the requirements and limitations set forth in Section 2.17), (x) each of the Fee Letters may only be amended, modified or changed, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, only by the parties thereto in accordance with the respective provisions thereof and (y) each Lender Rate Contract and agreement with respect to Lender Bank Products may only be amended, modified or changed, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, only by the parties thereto in accordance with the respective provisions thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error, or any error or omission of a purely technical nature, in the Credit Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision without further action or consent of any other party if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.
No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right under this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right hereunder or thereunder nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other further exercise thereof or of any other right hereunder or thereunder.  Unless otherwise specified in such waiver or consent, a waiver or consent given hereunder shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.  The Lenders may condition the giving or making of any amendment, waiver or consent of any term, covenant, agreement or condition of this Agreement or any other Credit Document on payment of a fee by the Borrower (which may be payable only to the Lenders that consent to such matters within specified periods).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Credit Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Credit Documents against the Borrower shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 6.02 for the benefit of all the Lenders; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, (b) the L/C Issuer from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as L/C Issuer) hereunder and under the other Credit Documents or (c) any Lender from exercising setoff or offset rights in accordance with Section 8.06 (subject to the terms of Section 2.10); and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person 

-158-

acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b) and (c) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.10, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders. 

8.05.        Successors and Assigns.
(e)        Binding Effect.  This Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, all future holders of the Obligations and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that no Loan Party may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under any Credit Document  (except in connection with a merger or consolidation permitted by Section 5.02(d)) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender.  Any purported assignment or transfer by a Loan Party in violation of the foregoing shall be null and void.
(f)        Participations.  Any Lender may, without notice to or consent of the Borrower, at any time sell to one or more banks or other financial institutions (“Participants”) participating interests in all or a 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 under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (including for purposes of this Section 8.05(b), participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans); provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, no Participant shall be a Loan Party or an Affiliate of a Loan Party.  In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of its Notes for all purposes under this Agreement and the Borrower 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.  Any agreement pursuant to which any such sale is effected may require the selling Lender to obtain the consent of the Participant in order for such Lender to agree in writing to any amendment, waiver or consent of a type specified in Section 8.04(a)(i)-(v) or Section 8.04(b) but may not otherwise require the selling Lender to obtain the consent of such Participant to any other amendment, waiver or consent hereunder.  The Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents are not paid when due (whether upon acceleration or otherwise), each Participant shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be deemed to have the rights of setoff and offset in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and any other Credit Documents 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 other Credit Documents; provided, 

-159-

however, that (i) no Participant shall exercise any rights under this sentence without the consent of the Administrative Agent, (ii) no Participant shall have any rights under this sentence which are greater than those of the selling Lender and (iii) such rights of setoff and offset shall be subject to the obligation of such Participant to share the payment so obtained with all of the Lenders as provided in Section 2.10(b).  The Borrower also agrees that any Lender which has sold any participating interest in its Commitments or Loans in accordance with this Section 8.05(b) shall, notwithstanding any such sale, be entitled to the full benefits accorded such Lender under Sections 2.11, 2.12 and 2.13, as if such Lender had not made such sale, but such Lender shall not be entitled to any greater payment under such Sections than it would have been entitled to receive had it not sold such participation.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, 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 Credit 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 Credit 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)        Assignments.  Any Lender may, at any time, sell and assign to any Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) or any Eligible Assignee (individually, an “Assignee Lender”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (including for purposes of this Section 8.05(c), participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) (such a sale and assignment to be referred to herein as an “Assignment”) pursuant to an assignment agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit H (an “Assignment Agreement”), executed by each Assignee Lender and such assignor Lender (an “Assignor Lender”) and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register; provided, however, that:  
(iii)        Each Assignee Lender that is a Revolving Lender shall assume, as a condition to the effectiveness of such assignment, any continuing obligation to purchase participation interests in any L/C Obligations or any Swing Line Loans then outstanding;

-160-

(iv)        If no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, without the written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), no Lender may make any Assignment of Term Loans, Revolving Loan Commitments, Revolving Loans, L/C Advances or Swing Line Loans to any Assignee Lender which is not, immediately prior to such Assignment, a Lender hereunder or an Affiliate or Approved Fund as to such Lender; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless the Borrower shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof;  
(v)        Without the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), no Lender may make any Assignment of Revolving Loan Commitments, Revolving Loans, L/C Advances or Swing Line Loans to any Assignee Lender which is not, immediately prior to such Assignment, a Revolving Lender hereunder or an Affiliate thereof or an Approved Fund as to such Revolving Lender; 
(vi)        Without the written consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), no Lender may make any Assignment of an unfunded portion of any Term Loan Commitment to any Assignee Lender which is not, immediately prior to such Assignment, a Term Lender with an unfunded portion of any Term Loan Commitment or an Affiliate thereof or an Approved Fund as to such Lender; 
(vii)         Without the written consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), no Lender may make any Assignment of Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans to any Assignee Lender which is not, immediately prior to such Assignment, a Lender hereunder or an Affiliate thereof or an Approved Fund as to such Lender; 
(viii)        Reserved; and
(ix)         Without the written consent of (1) the Administrative Agent and (2) if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower, no Lender may make any Assignment to any Assignee Lender (I) with respect to any Assignment of Revolving Loans or a Revolving Loan Commitment, that is less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) in the aggregate, 

-161-

(II) with respect to any Assignment of Term Loans, that is less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in the aggregate, (II) with respect to any Assignment of Incremental Term Loans, that is less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in the aggregate, or (IV) if, after giving effect to such Assignment, the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Lender or such Assignee Lender would be less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or the Term Loans of such Lender or such Assignee Lender would be less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) or the Incremental Term Loans of such Lender or such Assignee Lender would be less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (except that, in each case, a Lender may make an Assignment which reduces its Revolving Loan Commitment, Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans to zero without the written consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent except to the extent such written consent is required by Section 8.05(c)(ii), (iii), (iv), (v) or (vi) above).
Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording of each Assignment Agreement, from and after the Assignment Effective Date determined pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, (A) each Assignee Lender thereunder shall be a Lender hereunder with a Revolving Loan Commitment and Loans as set forth on Attachment 1 to such Assignment Agreement and shall have the rights, duties and obligations of such a Lender under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and (B) the Assignor Lender thereunder shall be a Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment and Loans as set forth on Attachment 1 to such Assignment Agreement or, if the Revolving Loan Commitment and Loans of the Assignor Lender have been reduced to $0, the Assignor Lender shall cease to be a Lender and to have any obligation to make any Loan; provided, however, that any such Assignor Lender which ceases to be a Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of any provision of this Agreement which by its terms survives the termination of this Agreement; provided further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.  Each Assignment Agreement shall be deemed to amend Schedule I to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of each Assignee Lender, the deletion of each Assignor Lender which reduces its Revolving Loan Commitment and Loans to $0 and the resulting adjustment of Revolving Loan Commitment and Loans arising from the purchase by each Assignee Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of an Assignor Lender under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.  On or prior to the Assignment Effective Date determined pursuant to each Assignment Agreement, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, in exchange for the surrendered Revolving Loan Note or Term Loan Note, if any, of the Assignor Lender thereunder, a new Revolving Loan Note or Term Loan Note to each Assignee Lender thereunder that requests such a note (with each new Revolving Loan Note to be in an amount equal to the Revolving Loan Commitment assumed by such Assignee Lender and each new Term Loan Note to be in the original principal amount of each Term Loan then held by such Assignee Lender) and, if the Assignor Lender is continuing as a Lender hereunder, a new Revolving Loan Note or Term Loan Note to the Assignor Lender if so requested by such Assignor Lender (with the new Revolving Loan Note to be in an amount equal to the Revolving Loan Commitment retained by it and the new Term Loan Note to be in the original principal amount of the Term Loan retained by it.  Each such new Revolving Loan Note and Term Loan Note shall be dated the Closing Date, and each such new Note shall otherwise be in the form of the Note replaced thereby.  The Notes surrendered by the Assignor 

-162-

Lender shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower marked “Replaced”.  Each Assignee Lender which was not previously a Lender hereunder and which is not organized under the laws of the United States or a state thereof shall, within three (3) Business Days of becoming a Lender, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (A) two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E or Form W-8ECI (or successor applicable form), as the case may be, certifying in each case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes or (B) in the case of a Lender that is a Non-Bank Lender, (i) a Non-Bank Certificate and (ii) two accurate and complete original signed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E (with respect to the portfolio interest exemption) (or successor form) certifying to such Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments of interest to be made under this Agreement, but only if and to the extent such Lender is legally entitled to do so.  
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Wells Fargo assigns all of its Commitments and Loans pursuant to Section 8.05(c) above, Wells Fargo may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer and/or (ii) upon five Business Days’ notice to the Borrower, terminate the Swing Line.  In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer or termination of the Swing Line, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Wells Fargo as L/C Issuer or the termination of the Swing Line, as the case may be.  Wells Fargo shall retain all the rights and obligations of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.02(c)). If Wells Fargo terminates the Swing Line, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such termination, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.03(c). 
In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Revolving Proportionate Share.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Governmental Rules without compliance with the provisions 

-163-

of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
(h)        Register.  The Administrative Agent (the “Agent”), shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a register at its address referred to in Section 8.01 (the “Register”) on which it will record the Commitments from time to time of each of the Lenders, the Loans made by, and Letters of Credit of, each of the Lenders and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of, and interest payable with respect to, the Loans and Letters of Credit of each Lender.  Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.  With respect to any Lender, the transfer of the Commitment of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan or Letter of Credit made pursuant to such Commitment shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by the Agent.  The ownership of such Commitment, Loans and Letters of Credit prior to such recordation and all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitment, Loans and Letters of Credit shall remain owing to the transferor.  In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender.  The registration of an assignment or transfer of all or part of any Commitment, Loan or Letter of Credit shall be recorded by the Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment Agreement pursuant to Section 8.05(c).  Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment Agreement to the Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender shall surrender the Note evidencing such Loan, and thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to assigning or transferor Lender.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender during the regular business hours of the Administrative Agent after reasonable notice from the Borrower or such Lender, and after receiving such notice the Administrative Agent may, at its option, send the Borrower or such Lender a copy of the Register in lieu of such inspection. 
(i)        Registration.  Upon its receipt of an Assignment Agreement executed by an Assignor Lender and an Assignee Lender (and, to the extent required by Section 8.05(c), by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) together with payment to the Administrative Agent by Assignor Lender of a registration and processing fee of $3,500, the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment Agreement and (ii) on the Assignment Effective Date determined pursuant thereto record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Lenders and the Borrower.  The Administrative Agent may, from time to time at its election, prepare and deliver to the Lenders and the Borrower a revised Schedule I reflecting the names, addresses and respective Commitments or Loans of all Lenders then parties hereto (and in any event Schedule I shall be deemed amended to reflect any assignment consummated pursuant to the terms of this 

-164-

Agreement or upon any Lender becoming a party to this Agreement by any other means (including pursuant to a joinder as contemplated by Section 2.17).  
(j)        Confidentiality.  Subject to Section 8.10, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the Credit Documents and any financial or other information relating to the Loan Parties to each other or to any potential Participant or Assignee Lender. 
(k)        Pledges to Federal Reserve Banks; Other Pledges of Notes.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any Lender may at any time assign all or a portion of its rights under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank.  No such assignment shall relieve the assigning Lender from its obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.  In the case of any Lender that is a Fund, such Lender may (i) assign or pledge all or any portion of the Loans held by it (and Notes evidencing such Loans) to the trustee under any indenture to which such Lender is a party in support of its obligations to the trustee for the benefit of the applicable trust beneficiaries, or (ii) pledge all or any portion of the Loans held by it (and Notes evidencing such Loans) to its lenders for collateral security purpose; provided, however, no such pledgee under clause (i) or (ii) shall become a Lender hereunder (by foreclosure, transfer in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) unless and until it complies with the assignment provisions of this Agreement to become a Lender hereunder and has received all consents required hereunder.
(l)        True Sale.  All participations in the Obligations or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to provisions hereof or otherwise, are intended to be “true sales” for purposes of financial reporting in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140.  Accordingly, the L/C Issuer or any Lender that sells or is deemed to have sold a participation in the Obligations (including any participations in Letters of Credit and/or Loans, any participations described in Section 8.05(b) above and any participations under Section 2.10(b)) (each a “Participation Seller”) hereby agrees that if such Participation Seller receives any payment in respect of the Obligations to which such participation relates through the exercise of setoff or offset by such Participation Seller against the Borrower or any other obligor, then such Participation Seller agrees to promptly pay to the participating party in such participation such participant’s pro rata share of such setoff or offset (after giving effect to any sharing with the Lenders under Section 2.10(b) hereof).
(m)        Additional Forms.  If required by applicable Governmental Rules or otherwise deemed prudent by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and each Lender shall prepare, execute and deliver a completed Form U-1 (or Form G-3, as applicable) for each Lender (and, if 

-165-

applicable, for each Participant, in which case the applicable Lender shall cause its Participant to satisfy the requirements of this Section).
8.06.        Setoff; Security Interest.
(m)        Setoffs By Lenders.  In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, with the prior consent of the Administrative Agent but without prior notice to or consent of the Borrower, any such notice and consent being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Governmental Rules, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to setoff or offset and apply against the Obligations any amount owing from such Lender to the Borrower; provided, however, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff or offset, (i) all amounts so setoff or offset shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.16 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (ii) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff or offset.  The aforesaid right of setoff or offset may be exercised by such Lender against the Borrower or against any trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver or execution, judgment or attachment creditor of the Borrower or against anyone else claiming through or against the Borrower or such trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver, or execution, judgment or attachment creditor, notwithstanding the fact that such right of setoff or offset may not have been exercised by such Lender at any prior time.  Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such setoff or offset and application made by such Lender; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff or offset and application.  
(n)         Security Interest.  As security for the Obligations, the Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, a continuing security interest in any and all deposit accounts or moneys of the Borrower now or hereafter maintained with such Lender.  Each Lender shall have all of the rights of a secured party with respect to such security interest.
8.07.        No Third Party Rights.  Nothing expressed in or to be implied from this Agreement is intended to give, or shall be construed to give, any Person, other than the parties hereto and their 

-166-

permitted successors and assigns hereunder, any benefit or legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by virtue of this Agreement or under or by virtue of any provision herein. 
8.08.        Partial Invalidity.  If at any time any provision of this Agreement is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the law or any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of any other jurisdiction shall in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
8.09.        Jury Trial.  EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE LENDERS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE GOVERNMENTAL RULES, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AS TO ANY ISSUE RELATING HERETO IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT. 
8.10.        Confidentiality.  None of the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger, any Co-Syndication Agent or any Lender shall disclose to any Person any Confidential Information, except that the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger, any Co-Syndication Agent and any Lender may disclose any such information (a) to its own directors, officers, employees, auditors, counsel and other advisors and to its Affiliates, provided such Person shall be subject to the confidentiality obligations of this Section 8.10; (b) to the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger, any Co-Syndication Agent or any other Lender; (c) which is otherwise known or available to the public or which is otherwise known to the receiving party prior to the time such Confidential Information was delivered to the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger, any Co-Syndication Agent or any Lender, other than by virtue of a breach of this Section 8.10; (d) if required or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any Governmental Authority having or claiming to have jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent, such Joint Lead Arranger, such Co-Syndication Agent or such Lender (including as required in connection with pledges and assignments permitted under Section 8.05 (g)); (e) if required in response to any summons or subpoena; (f) in connection with any enforcement by the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Co-Syndication Agents or the Lenders of their rights under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or any litigation among the parties relating to the Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby; (g) to comply with any Requirement of Law applicable to the Administrative Agent, such Joint Lead Arranger, such Co-Syndication Agent or such Lender; (h) to any Assignee Lender or Participant or any prospective Assignee Lender or Participant; provided that such Assignee Lender or Participant or prospective Assignee Lender or Participant agrees to be bound by the 

-167-

provisions of (or provisions substantially similar to) this Section 8.10; or (i) otherwise with the prior consent of such Loan Party; provided, however, that in the case of disclosure pursuant to clauses (e), (f) and (g), the Administrative Agent, such Joint Lead Arranger, such Co-Syndication Agent or such Lender, as applicable, shall (so long as not in contravention of any Requirements of Law or any directive of a Governmental Authority) use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Borrower prior to any such disclosure; and provided, further, that any failure to provide such notice and any disclosure made in violation of this Agreement shall not affect the obligations of the Loan Parties under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.  Nothing in this Section 8.10 shall limit the use of any Platform as described in Section 8.01(b).  
8.11.        Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of identical counterparts, any set of which signed by all the parties hereto shall be deemed to constitute a complete, executed original for all purposes.  Transmission by facsimile, “pdf” or similar electronic copy of an executed counterpart of this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute due and sufficient delivery of such counterpart.  Any party hereto may request an original counterpart of any party delivering such electronic counterpart.
8.12.        Consent to Jurisdiction.  Each of the parties to this Agreement irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and the courts of the United States located in New York, New York and agrees that any legal action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents may be brought against such party in any such courts.  Final judgment against any party in any such action, suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction by suit on the judgment, a certified or exemplified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the judgment, or in any other manner provided by law.  Nothing in this Section 8.12 shall affect the right of any party to commence legal proceedings or otherwise sue any other party in any other appropriate jurisdiction, or concurrently in more than one jurisdiction, or to serve process, pleadings and other papers upon any other party in any manner authorized by the laws of any such jurisdiction.  The Borrower agrees that process served either personally or by registered mail shall, to the extent permitted by law, constitutes adequate service of process in any such suit.  Each of the parties to this Agreement irrevocably waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Governmental Rules (a) any objection which it may have now or in the future to the laying of the venue of any such action, suit or proceeding in any court referred to in the first sentence above; (b) any claim that any such action, suit or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum; (c) its right of removal of any matter commenced by any other party in the courts of the State of New York or to any court of the United States; (d) any immunity which it or its assets may have in respect of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Credit Document from any suit, execution, attachment (whether provisional or final, in aid of execution, before judgment or otherwise) or other legal process; and (e) any right it may have to require the moving party in any suit, 

-168-

action or proceeding brought in any of the courts referred to above arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document to post security for the costs of any party or to post a bond or to take similar action.
8.13.        Relationship of Parties.  The relationship between the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, on the other, is, and at all times shall remain, solely that of borrower and lenders.  Neither the Lenders nor the Administrative Agent shall under any circumstances be construed to be partners or joint venturers of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates; nor shall the Lenders nor the Administrative Agent under any circumstances be deemed to be in a relationship of confidence or trust or a fiduciary relationship with the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or to owe any fiduciary duty to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates.  The Lenders and the Administrative Agent do not undertake or assume any responsibility or duty to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates to select, review, inspect, supervise, pass judgment upon or otherwise inform the Borrower or any of its Affiliates of any matter in connection with its or their property, any security held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or the operations of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates.  The Borrower and each of its Affiliates shall rely entirely on their own judgment with respect to such matters, and any review, inspection, supervision, exercise of judgment or supply of information undertaken or assumed by any Lender or the Administrative Agent in connection with such matters is solely for the protection of such Lender or the Administrative Agent and neither the Borrower nor any of its Affiliates is entitled to rely thereon.
8.14.         Time.  Time is of the essence as to each term or provision of this Agreement and each of the other Credit Documents.
8.15.         Waiver of Punitive Damages.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Borrower hereby agrees that it shall not seek from the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Co-Syndication Agents or the Lenders any punitive, exemplary, special, indirect or consequential damages under any theory of liability.
8.16.        USA PATRIOT Act.  Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.
8.17.        

-169-

Each Guarantor acknowledges that some extensions of credit under the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents may be available on a revolving basis.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Guaranteed Obligations” shall exclude all Excluded Swap Obligations.

The rules of interpretation set forth in Article I of the Credit Agreement shall, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Guaranty, apply to this Guaranty and are hereby incorporated by reference.  This Guaranty shall be effective as to each Guarantor on the date such Guarantor executes and delivers this Guaranty or a Joinder Agreement with respect hereto.  
SECTION 2.    THE GUARANTEE.
2.01.        Guarantee Provisions; Keepwell Agreement.  

-3-

 

(a)        Guarantee.  Each Guarantor hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees the timely payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations in each case strictly in accordance with their terms.  Each Guarantor hereby further agrees that if any Loan Party shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, such Guarantor will immediately pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be timely paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.  This Guaranty is absolute, irrevocable and unconditional in nature and is made with respect to any and all Guaranteed Obligations now existing or in the future arising.  Each Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty shall continue until indefeasible payment in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations.  This Guaranty is a guarantee of due and punctual payment and performance and not of collectibility.  
(b)         Savings Clause.  As to any Guarantor, if under any applicable law (including without limitation state and Federal fraudulent transfer laws) the obligations of such Guarantor under Section 2.01(a) would otherwise be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable or if the claims of the Guaranteed Parties in respect of such obligations would be subordinated to the claims of any other creditors on account of such Guarantor’s liability under Section 2.01(a), then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of the liability of such Guarantor shall, without any further action by the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent, any other Guaranteed Party or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount which is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.  All Guarantors expect to realize direct and indirect benefits as the result of the availability of the aforementioned credit facilities to the Borrower, as the result of financial or business support which will be provided to the Guarantors by the Borrower.
(c)        Joint and Several Obligations.  The obligations and liability of the Guarantors under this Guaranty are joint and several.  Except as expressly set forth in Section 2.01(b), the liability of the Guarantors is not limited in any respect.
(d)        Keepwell Agreement.  Each Qualified ECP Guarantor, jointly and severally, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by any other Loan Party to honor all of such Loan Party’s obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 2.01(d) for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 2.01(d), or otherwise under this Guaranty, voidable under applicable law, including applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 2.01(d) shall remain in full force and effect until the indefeasible payment in cash and satisfaction in full of all of the Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the commitments of the Lenders under the Credit Documents.  Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 2.01(d) constitute, and this Section 2.01(d) 

-4-

 

shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.
2.02.        Acknowledgments, Agreements; Waivers and Consents.  Each Guarantor acknowledges that the obligations undertaken by it under this Guaranty involve the guarantee of obligations of Persons other than such Guarantor and that such obligations of each Guarantor are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances.  In full recognition and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Guarantor agrees that:
(a)        Without affecting the enforceability or effectiveness of this Guaranty in accordance with its terms and without affecting, limiting, reducing, discharging or terminating the liability of such Guarantor, or the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties under this Guaranty, the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties may, at any time and from time to time and without notice or demand of any kind or nature whatsoever:
(i)        amend, supplement, modify, extend, renew, waive, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or performance of, or the terms of, all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the principal portion of, or rate or rates of interest on, all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations);
(ii)        amend, supplement, modify, extend, renew, waive or otherwise change, or enter into or give, any Transaction Document or any agreement, security document, guarantee, approval, consent or other instrument with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, any Transaction Document or any such other instrument or any term or provision of the foregoing;
(iii)        accept or enter into new or additional agreements, security documents, guarantees (including letters of credit) or other instruments in addition to, in exchange for or relative to any Transaction Document, all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral now or in the future serving as security for the Guaranteed Obligations;

(vii)        apply any collateral or the proceeds of any collateral or guarantee (including any letter of credit or the obligations of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Obligor) to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations in such manner and extent as the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party may in its sole discretion determine;

(x)        consent to the merger or consolidation of, the sale of substantial assets by, or other restructuring or termination of the existence of the Borrower, any Loan Party or any other Person (including any Obligor);

(xii)        foreclose upon any deed of trust, mortgage or other instrument creating or granting liens on any interest in real property by judicial or nonjudicial sale or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, bid any amount or make no bid in any foreclosure sale or make any other election of remedies with respect to such liens or exercise any right of set-off;

-6-

 

(xiii)        obtain the appointment of a receiver with respect to any collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations and apply the proceeds of such receivership as the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party may in its discretion determine (it being agreed that nothing in this clause (xiii) shall be deemed to make the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party a party in possession in contemplation of law, except at its option);
(xiv)        enter into such other transactions or business dealings with the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Obligor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations as the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party may desire; and

(i)        the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, any Transaction Document or any agreement, security document, guarantee or other instrument relative to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;
(ii)        any disability or other defense with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Obligor with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations (including any issuer of any letters of credit), including the effect of any (x) lack of power to execute any of the Transaction Documents or to have duly authorized any of the Transaction Documents or (y) statute of limitations that may bar the enforcement of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or the obligations of the Borrower, such Loan Party or such Obligor; 
(iii)        the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of any security or guarantee (including any letter of credit) for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection or failure of the priority of any lien on any collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(viii)        any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure or sale of, or other election of remedies with respect to, any interest in real property or other collateral serving as security for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, even though such foreclosure, sale or election of remedies may impair the subrogation rights of such Guarantor or may preclude such Guarantor from obtaining reimbursement, contribution, indemnification or other recovery from the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any Obligor or any other Person and even though the Borrower may not, as a result of such foreclosure, sale or election of remedies, be liable for any deficiency; 
(ix)        any act or omission of the Administrative Agent, any other Guaranteed Party or any other Person that directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge or release of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Obligor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security or guarantee for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations by operation of law or otherwise;

(c)        Each Guarantor hereby waives (i) any right of redemption with respect to the collateral or security for the Guaranteed Obligations or for this Guaranty after the sale thereof, and all rights, if any, of marshalling of the collateral or security for the Guaranteed Obligations or for this Guaranty, (ii) any right (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived) to require the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party to pursue any remedy in the Administrative Agent’s or any other Guaranteed Party’s power whatsoever, (iii) presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and all other notices whatsoever with respect to the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations or the amount thereof or any payment or performance by any Guarantor hereunder and (iv) all rights to revoke this Guaranty at any time, and all rights to revoke any agreement executed by such Guarantor at any time to secure the payment and performance of such Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty.
(d)        Each Guarantor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to collateral or security for the Guaranteed Obligations, has destroyed such Guarantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal.
(e)        Each Guarantor expressly waives, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties, all set-offs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, and all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation, incurring or assumption of new or additional Guaranteed Obligations.  Each Guarantor further expressly waives the benefit of any and all statutes of limitation and any and all laws providing for the exemption of property from execution or for valuation and appraisal upon foreclosure, to the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable law.
(f)        Each Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties that it has established adequate means of obtaining financial and other information pertaining to the business, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) of the Borrower and its properties on a continuing basis and that such Guarantor is now and will in 

-10-

 

the future remain fully familiar with the business, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) of the Borrower and its properties.  Each Guarantor further represents and warrants that it has reviewed and approved each of the Transaction Documents and is fully familiar with the transaction contemplated by such Transaction Documents in existence on the date hereof and that it will in the future remain fully familiar with such transaction and with any new Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated by such Transaction Documents.  Each Guarantor hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of the Administrative Agent or the other Guaranteed Parties (should any such duty exist) to disclose to the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Obligor any matter of fact or other information related to the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower or its properties or to any Transaction Document or the transactions undertaken pursuant to, or contemplated by, any such Transaction Document, whether now or in the future known by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party. 
(g)        Each Guarantor intends that its rights and obligations shall be those expressly set forth in this Guaranty and that its obligations shall not be affected, limited, reduced, discharged or terminated by reason of any principles or provisions of law which conflict with the terms of this Guaranty.
(h)         Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that there may be additional guaranty or security agreements or similar documents executed by other Obligors in respect of all or a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations and the existence of any such guaranty or security agreement or similar document shall not in any way impair, reduce or limit such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder. 
(i)         Without limiting the generality of any other provision hereof, each Guarantor agrees that, in the event of the dissolution or insolvency of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Obligor or the inability of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Obligor to pay its debts as they mature, or an assignment by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Obligor for the benefit of creditors, or the institution of any proceeding by or against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Obligor alleging that the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Obligor is insolvent or unable to pay its debts as they mature (including any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding), or the appointment of a receiver for, or the attachment, restraint of or making or levying of any order of court or legal process affecting, the property of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Obligor, each Guarantor will pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of itself and the other Guaranteed Parties forthwith the full amount which would be payable hereunder by such Guarantor if all of the Guaranteed Obligations were then due and payable, whether or not such event occurs at a time when any of the Guaranteed Obligations are otherwise due and payable. 
2.03.        Understanding With Respect to Waivers and Consents.  Each Guarantor represents, warrants and agrees that each of the waivers and consents set forth in this Guaranty is made voluntarily and unconditionally after consultation with outside legal counsel and with full knowledge of its significance and consequences, with the understanding that events giving rise to any defense or right waived may diminish, destroy or otherwise adversely affect rights which such Guarantor or any other Obligor otherwise may have against the Borrower, the Administrative 

-11-

 

Agent, any other Guaranteed Party or any other Person or against any collateral.  If, notwithstanding the intent of the parties that the terms of this Guaranty shall control in any and all circumstances, any such waivers or consents are determined to be unenforceable under applicable law, such waivers and consents shall be effective to the maximum extent not prohibited by law.
2.04.        Subrogation.  Each Guarantor hereby agrees that, until the indefeasible payment in cash and satisfaction in full of all of the Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the commitments of the Lenders under the Credit Documents, it shall not exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege, such as any right of subrogation, contribution or indemnity or related remedy, power or privilege, arising (whether by contract or operation of law, including under the Bankruptcy Code) against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any Obligor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral or security for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations by reason of any payment or other performance pursuant to the provisions of this Guaranty and, if any amount shall be paid to such Guarantor on account of such rights, remedies, powers or privileges, it shall hold such amount in trust for the benefit of, and pay the same over to, the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the other Guaranteed Parties) on account of the Guaranteed Obligations.  Each Guarantor understands that the exercise by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party of any right, remedy, power or privilege that it may have under the Transaction Documents, any agreement, collateral or security document, guarantee or other instrument relative to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise may affect or eliminate such Guarantor’s or any Obligor’s right of subrogation or similar recovery against the Borrower, any other Guarantor, any Obligor or any collateral or security and that such Guarantor may therefore incur partially or totally nonreimbursable liability under this Guaranty.  Nevertheless, each Guarantor hereby authorizes and empowers the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties to exercise, in its or their sole discretion, any combination of such rights, remedies, powers and privileges.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Guaranty or any other Transaction Document, no Guarantor shall exercise any rights of subrogation, contribution, indemnity, reimbursement or other similar rights against, and no Guarantor shall proceed or seek recourse against or with respect to any property or asset of, the Borrower or any other Guarantor or Obligor (including after payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations) whose Equity Securities have been transferred in connection with any exercise of remedies by the Administrative Agent following an Event of Default (a “Foreclosed Obligor”), and each Guarantor shall be deemed to have waived all such rights and remedies against such Foreclosed Obligor if all or any portion of the Obligations have been satisfied in connection with an exercise of remedies in respect of such Equity Securities of any such Foreclosed Obligor whether pursuant to the Security Documents or otherwise.
2.05.        Reinstatement.  The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower, any other Guarantor, any Obligor or any other Person or any other application of funds (including the proceeds of any collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations) in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of such Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy, reorganization or otherwise and each Guarantor agrees that it 

-12-

 

will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each other Guaranteed Party for all costs and expenses (including all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of one primary counsel, and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Party taken as a whole, and in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to each affected Guaranteed Party) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such other Guaranteed Party in connection with such rescission or restoration, payable within 30 days of written demand therefor (accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation).  
2.06.        Remedies.  Each Guarantor hereby agrees that, between it on the one hand and the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties on the other, the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents may be declared to be forthwith (or may become automatically) due and payable as provided in the Credit Agreement for purposes of Section 2.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations becoming due and payable as against the Borrower) and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligation being deemed due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable for purposes of Section 2.01.
2.07.        Separate Action.  The Administrative Agent may bring and prosecute a separate action or actions against each Guarantor (or any one or more of them) whether or not the Borrower, any other Guarantor, any Loan Party, any other Obligor or any other Person is joined in any such action or a separate action or actions are brought against the Borrower, any other Guarantor, any Loan Party, any other Obligor, any other Person, or any collateral or security for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.  The obligations of each Guarantor under, and the effectiveness of, this Guaranty are not conditioned upon the existence or continuation of any other guarantee (including any letter of credit) of or collateral or security for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.  
2.08.        Subordination.  The following provisions shall only apply with respect to any Guarantor party hereto that is not party to the Intercompany Subordination Agreement:
(a)         Each Guarantor agrees that the payment by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Obligor of any indebtedness in favor of such Guarantor (the “Subordinated Lender”) shall be subordinated and subject to the prior indefeasible payment in cash in full of all amounts payable by the Borrower, such other Loan Party or such Obligor under the Credit Agreement or this Guaranty, as the case may be, and any other Transaction Document to which the Borrower, such other Loan Party or such Obligor is a party (“Senior Debt”) upon the terms of this Section.
(b)         Upon any distribution of assets of the Borrower, a Loan Party or an Obligor to creditors upon a liquidation or dissolution of the Borrower, such Loan Party or such Obligor or in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding relating to the Borrower, such Loan Party or such Obligor or its property, (i) the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties shall be entitled to receive payment in full of all Senior Debt before the Subordinated Lender shall be entitled to receive any payment of principal of or interest on or any other amounts in respect of Indebtedness of the Borrower, such Loan Party or 

-13-

 

such Obligor in favor of the Subordinated Lender (the “Subordinated Debt”); and (ii) until indefeasible payment in cash in full of the Senior Debt and the lending commitments under the Credit Documents shall have terminated, any distribution of assets of any kind or character to which the Subordinated Lender would otherwise be entitled shall be paid by the Borrower, such Loan Party or such Obligor or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agents or other person making such payment or distribution to, or if received by the Borrower, such Loan Party or such Obligor, shall be held for the benefit of and shall be forthwith paid or delivered to, the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties, as applicable.
(c)         If the Subordinated Lender does not file proper claims or proofs of claim in the form required in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding relating to the Borrower, a Loan Party or an Obligor or its property prior to 45 days before the expiration of the time to file such claims, then (a) upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Subordinated Lender shall file such claims and proofs of claim in respect of this instrument and execute and deliver such powers of attorney, assignments and other instruments as are required to enable the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties to enforce any and all claims upon or in respect of the Subordinated Debt and to collect and receive any and all payments or distributions which may be payable or deliverable at any time upon or in respect of Subordinated Debt, and (b) whether or not the Subordinated Lender shall take the action described in the preceding clause (a) the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties shall nevertheless be deemed to have such powers of attorney as may be necessary for them to file appropriate claims and proofs of claim and otherwise exercise the powers described above.
(d)         No right of the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party to enforce the terms of this Section shall be impaired by any act or failure to act by the Borrower, a Loan Party or an Obligor.  Neither the terms of this Section nor the rights of the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties hereunder shall be affected by any extension, renewal or modification of the terms of, or the granting of any security in respect of, any Senior Debt or any exercise or nonexercise of any right, power or remedy with respect thereto.
(e)         Until the Senior Debt is paid in full and the lending commitments under the Credit Documents shall have terminated, the Subordinated Lender shall not exercise any right of subrogation that it may have now or hereafter as a result of its performance of this Guaranty.
(f)         Nothing in this Section shall (i) impair, as between the Borrower, such Loan Party or such Obligor and the Subordinated Lender, the obligation of the Borrower, or such Loan Party or such Obligor, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on Subordinated Debt in accordance with its terms; (ii) affect the relative rights of the Subordinated Lender and creditors of the Borrower, or such Loan Party or such Obligor other than the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties; or (iii) prevent the Subordinated Lender from exercising its available remedies upon an event of default under the Subordinated Debt, subject to the rights of the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed 

-14-

 

Parties to receive cash, property or other assets otherwise payable to the Subordinated Lender to the extent set forth in this Section.
2.09.        Right to Offset Balances.  Each Guarantor agrees that, in addition to (and without any limitation of) any right of set-off, banker’s lien or counterclaim any Guaranteed Party may otherwise have, each Guaranteed Party shall be entitled, at its option but only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, to offset balances held by it for the account of such Guarantor at any of its offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, against any Guaranteed Obligations to such Guaranteed Party from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default (regardless of whether such balances are then due to such Guarantor).  Any Guaranteed Party so entitled shall promptly notify the applicable Guarantor and the Administrative Agent of any offset effected by it; provided that such Guaranteed Party’s failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such offset or the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.
2.10.        Payment of Guaranteed Obligations.  Any amounts received by the Administrative Agent under this Guaranty from whatever source on account of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be applied by the Administrative Agent in the manner set forth in Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement for the application of proceeds of any sale, disposition or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral.
SECTION 3.    REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE GUARANTORS.  As of the date hereof and as of the date of each Credit Event, each Guarantor represents to the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties that each of the representations and warranties applicable to it under the Credit Agreement and each other Credit Document are true and correct in all material respects as if made by such Guarantor, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material  respects on and as of such earlier date; provided that, if a representation and warranty is qualified as to materiality, the materiality qualifier shall be disregarded with respect to such representation and warranty.  Each Guarantor agrees to comply with and be bound by each of the covenants, agreements and conditions in the Credit Agreement applicable to it as if such Guarantor were a party to the Credit Agreement.   
SECTION 4.    MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.
4.01.        No Waiver.  No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party in exercising any remedy, right, power or privilege under this Guaranty or any other Transaction Document shall operate as a waiver of such remedy, right, power or privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such remedy, right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of such remedy, right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other remedy, right, power or privilege.  The remedies, rights, powers and privileges provided by this Guaranty 

-15-

 

are, to the extent not prohibited by law, cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies, rights, powers or privileges provided by the other Transaction Documents or by law.

All notices, requests, demands, consents, instructions or other communications to or upon the Guarantors or any one of them or the Administrative Agent under this Guaranty shall be in writing and faxed, mailed, e-mailed or delivered, if to the Guarantors or any one of them or to the Administrative Agent, at its respective facsimile number, address or e-mail address set forth below (or to such other facsimile number, address or e-mail address for any party as indicated in any notice given by that party to the other parties).

(d)    Waivers.  Each Company Entity hereby waives any and all notice of the incurrence of the Secured Obligations or any part thereof and any right to require marshaling of assets.

6

(e)    Obligations of Each Company Entity Not Affected.  Each Company Entity hereby agrees that at any time and from time to time, without notice to or the consent of such Company Entity, without incurring responsibility to such Credit Party, and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided for herein or otherwise impairing the rights of Administrative Agent or the Lender Parties hereunder:  (i) the time for any Credit Party’s performance of or compliance with any of its agreements contained in the Credit Documents may be extended or such performance or compliance may be waived by the Lenders or Administrative Agent on behalf thereof; (ii) the agreements of any Credit Party with respect to the Credit Documents may from time to time be modified by such Credit Party and the Lender Parties or Administrative Agent on behalf thereof, in each case, pursuant to the terms of the applicable Credit Document; (iii) the manner, place, or terms for payment of the Secured Obligations or any portion thereof may be altered or the terms for payment extended, or the Secured Obligations may be renewed in whole or in part; (iv) the maturity of the Secured Obligations may be accelerated in accordance with the terms of any present or future agreement by any Credit Party and the Lender Parties or Administrative Agent on behalf thereof; (v) any Collateral may be sold, exchanged, released, or substituted and any Lien in favor of Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lender Parties may be terminated, subordinated, or fail to be perfected or become unperfected; (vi) any Person liable in any manner for the Secured Obligations may be discharged, released, or substituted; and (vii) all other rights against any Credit Party, any other Person, or with respect to any Collateral may be exercised (or the Lender Parties or Administrative Agent, on behalf thereof, may waive or refrain from exercising such rights).

Each holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed to have acquired Senior Indebtedness in reliance upon the agreements of the Company and the Seller contained in this Section 2.  The provisions of this Section 2 shall be reinstated if at any time any payment of any of the Senior Indebtedness is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any holder of Senior Indebtedness or any representative of such Seller upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or any affiliate of the Company.  In no event shall the Seller commence any action or proceeding to contest the provisions of this Section 2 or the priority of the Liens (as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement) granted to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness by the Company.  Seller shall not take, accept or receive any collateral security from the Company for the payment of the Subordinated Obligations.

In the event of any such Bankruptcy Event, any payment or distribution of assets to which Seller would be entitled if the Subordinated Obligations were not subordinated to the Senior Indebtedness in accordance with this Section 2, whether in cash, property, securities or otherwise, shall be paid or delivered by the debtor, custodian, trustee or agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, or by Seller if received by it, directly to the Senior Agent on behalf of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness (subject to any intercreditor agreement or arrangement among such holders) for application to the payment of the Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to make Payment in Full of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of the Senior Indebtedness.
(c)No Payments with Respect to Subordinated Obligations in Certain Circumstances.

-4-

(i)In circumstances in which Section 2(b) is not applicable, no payment of any nature (including, without limitation, any distribution of assets) in respect of the Subordinated Obligations (including, without limitation, pursuant to any judgment with respect thereto or on account of the purchase or redemption or other acquisition of Subordinated Obligations, by setoff, prepayment, exchange or other manner) shall be made by or on behalf of the Company if, at the time of such payment, (x) the occurrence of one or more “Events of Default” (as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement) in respect of the Senior Indebtedness, and (y) any such Event of Default shall not have been cured or waived in accordance with the terms of the Senior Debt Documents.
The Company may resume payments (and may make any payments missed due to the application of Section 2(c)(i)) in respect of the Subordinated Obligations or any judgment with respect thereto upon a cure or waiver thereof in accordance with the terms of the Senior Debt Documents.

-5-

(ii)Following any acceleration of the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness and as long as such acceleration shall continue unrescinded and unannulled, such Senior Indebtedness shall first be Paid in Full before any payment is made on account of or applied on the Subordinated Obligations.
(iii)The Company shall give prompt written notice to Seller of any Event of Default in respect of Senior Indebtedness.  
(d)When Distribution Must Be Paid Over.  In the event that Seller shall receive any payment or distribution of assets that it is not entitled to receive or retain under the provisions of this Agreement in respect of the Subordinated Obligations, Seller shall hold any amount so received in trust for the holders of Senior Indebtedness, shall segregate such assets from other assets held by Seller and shall forthwith turn over such payment or distribution (without liability for interest thereon) to the Senior Agent on behalf of the holders of Senior Indebtedness (subject to any intercreditor agreement or arrangement among such holders) in the form received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied to Senior Indebtedness.
(e)Exercise of Remedies.  So long as any Senior Indebtedness is outstanding (including any loans, letters of credit, any commitments to lend or any lender guarantees), Seller shall not exercise any rights or remedies in respect of the Subordinated Obligations, including, without limitation, any action (1) to demand or sue for collection of amounts payable under any Purchase Document in respect of the Subordinated Obligations or (2) to commence or join with any other creditor (other than the holder of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Indebtedness) in commencing any proceeding in connection with or premised on the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event prior to the earliest of:
(A)the Payment in Full in cash or other immediately available funds of all Senior Indebtedness;
(B)the initiation of a proceeding (other than a proceeding prohibited by clause (2) of this Section 2(e)) in connection with or premised upon the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event; and
(C)the acceleration of the maturity of all of the Senior Indebtedness;
provided, however, that if, with respect to (B) and (C) above, such proceeding or acceleration, respectively, is rescinded, the prohibition against taking the actions described in this Section 2(e) shall automatically be reinstated as of the date of the rescission, cure or waiver, as applicable.

-6-

(f)Amending Senior Indebtedness.  Any holder of Senior Indebtedness may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to Seller, (i) modify or amend the terms of the Senior Indebtedness, (ii) sell, exchange, release, fail to perfect a lien on or a security interest in or otherwise in any manner deal with or apply any property pledged or mortgaged to secure, or otherwise securing, the Senior Indebtedness, (iii) release any guarantor or any other person liable in any manner for the Senior Indebtedness, (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company, Borrower or any other Person, (v) apply any sums by whomever paid or however realized to Senior Indebtedness or (vi) take any other action that might be deemed to impair in any way the rights of Seller.  Any and all of such actions may be taken by the holders of Senior Indebtedness without incurring responsibility to Seller and without impairing or releasing the obligations of Seller to the holders of Senior Indebtedness.
(g)Certain Rights in Bankruptcy.  In order to enable each holder of Senior Indebtedness to enforce their rights hereunder in any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding, Seller hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Senior Agent (and its representative or representatives) to demand, sue for, collect and receive all payments and distributions in respect of the Subordinated Obligations, to file and prove all claims (including claims in bankruptcy) relating to the Subordinated Obligations, to exercise any right to vote arising with respect to the Subordinated Obligations and any claims hereunder in any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding and take any and all other actions in the name of Seller, as the Senior Agent determines to be necessary or appropriate.
(h)Subrogation.  No payment or distribution to any holder of Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall entitle Seller to exercise any right of subrogation in respect thereof until (i) all Senior Indebtedness shall have been Paid in Full or (ii) all holders of Senior Indebtedness have consented in writing to the taking of such action.
(i)Obligations Hereunder Not Affected.  All rights and interest of the holders of Senior Indebtedness hereunder, and all agreements and obligations of Seller Members and the Company hereunder, shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:
(A)    any lack of validity or enforceability of any Senior Debt Document;
(B)    any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or any other term of, all or any of the Senior Indebtedness, or any other amendment or waiver of or any release or consent to departure from any of the Senior Debt Documents;
(C)    any exchange, subordination, release or non-perfection of any collateral for all or any of the Senior Indebtedness;

-7-

(D)    any failure of any holder of Senior Indebtedness to assert any claim or to enforce any right or remedy against any other party hereto under the provisions of this Agreement or any Senior Debt Document;
(E)    any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination of the Senior Indebtedness for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to (and Company and Seller Members hereby waive any right to or claim of) any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of invalidity, illegality, nongenuineness, irregularity, compromise, unenforceability of, or any other event or occurrence affecting, any Senior Indebtedness; and
(F)    any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates in respect of the Senior Indebtedness or Seller Members in respect of this Agreement.
Seller Members acknowledge and agree that the holders of Senior Indebtedness may in accordance with the terms of the Senior Debt Documents, without notice or demand and without affecting or impairing Seller Members’ obligations hereunder:  (i) modify the Senior Debt Documents; (ii) take or hold security for the payment of the Senior Indebtedness and exchange, enforce, foreclose upon, waive and release any such security; (iii) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Senior Agent and Senior Lenders, in their sole discretion, may determine; (iv) release and substitute one or more endorsers, warrantors, borrowers or other obligors; and (v) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company, Borrower or any other Person.  The Senior Indebtedness shall continue to be treated as Senior Indebtedness and the provisions of this Agreement shall continue to govern the relative rights and priorities of Senior Agent and Senior Lenders on the one and hand and Seller Members on the other hand, even if all or part of the Senior Indebtedness or the security interests securing the Senior Indebtedness are subordinated, set aside, avoided, invalidated or disallowed.
(j)Subordination of Liens and Security Interests; Agreement to Release Liens.
Until the Senior Indebtedness has been Paid in Full, any liens and security interests of any Seller Member in any collateral which may exist shall be and hereby are subordinated for all purposes and in all respects to the liens and security interests of Senior Agent in such Collateral, regardless of the time, manner or order of perfection of any such liens and security interests.  In the event that any Seller Member obtains any liens on or security interests in the collateral securing the Senior Indebtedness or any portion thereof, (i) Senior Agent shall be deemed authorized by Seller Members to file Uniform Commercial Code termination statements necessary to terminate such liens and security interests and (ii) Seller Members shall promptly execute and deliver to Senior Agent such releases and terminations as Senior Agent shall reasonably request to effect the release of such liens and security interests.

-8-

(k)Modifications to Seller Documents.  Until the Senior Indebtedness has been Paid in Full, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Seller Note or the Asset Purchase Agreement, Seller Members shall not, without the prior written consent of Senior Agent, amend, modify or supplement the Seller Note or Asset Purchase Agreement.
(l)Relative Rights.  The provisions of this Section 2 are for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness (and their successors and assigns) and shall be enforceable by them directly against Seller and Seller Members.  Seller and each Seller Member acknowledges and agrees that any breach of the provisions of this Section 2 will cause irreparable harm for which the payment of monetary damages may be inadequate.  For this reason, Seller and each Seller Member agrees that, in addition to any remedies at law or equity to which a holder of the Senior Indebtedness may be entitled, a holder of the Senior Indebtedness will be entitled to an injunction or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Section 2 and/or to compel specific performance of such provisions.  The provisions of this Section 2 shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of Senior Indebtedness is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any holder of Senior Indebtedness upon the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.  The provisions of this Section 2 are not intended to impair and shall not impair, as between the Company and Seller, the obligation of the Company to pay Seller all amounts owing under the Asset Purchase Agreement in respect of the Subordinated Obligations, which obligation is absolute and unconditional.
(m)Transfers.  Seller agrees that it will not (a) sell, assign or otherwise transfer, in whole or in part, the Subordinated Obligations owed to it or any interest therein to any other person or entity (a “Transferee”) or (b) create, incur or suffer to exist any security interest, lien, charge or other encumbrance whatsoever upon any Subordinated Obligations owed to it in favor of any Transferee unless, in either case, such Transferee expressly acknowledges to the Senior Lenders in writing the subordination provided for herein and agrees to be bound by all of the terms hereof.
(n)Amendment.  So long as any Senior Indebtedness (including any lender guarantee) is outstanding or there is a commitment to lend any Senior Indebtedness (including any commitment under the Senior Debt Documents), the terms of this Agreement may be amended only with the consent of the Senior Agent.
(o)Acknowledgment of Security Interest.  Seller hereby acknowledges, and agrees to, the Company’s grant of its interest herein to the Senior Lenders to collaterally secure the Company’s obligations under the Senior Debt Documents.

-9-

The scope of the foregoing governing law provision is intended to be all-encompassing of any and all disputes that may be brought in any court or any mediation or arbitration proceeding and that relate to the subject matter of this Agreement, including contract claims, tort claims, breach of duty claims and all other common law and statutory claims.
