Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations.  In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

Section 2.2    [Reserved].
Section 2.3    Swing Line Advances.
(a)    Facility.  On the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and if an AutoBorrow Agreement is in effect, subject to the terms and conditions of such AutoBorrow Agreement, the Swing Line Lender shall, from time to time on any Business Day during the period from and including the Effective Date until the last Business Day occurring before the Revolving Maturity Date, make Swing Line Advances to the Borrower which shall be due and payable on the Swing Line Payment Date (except that no Swing Line Advance may mature after the Revolving Maturity Date); provided that (i) after giving effect to such Swing Line Advance, (A) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Swing Line Advances shall not exceed the Swing Line Sublimit Amount in effect at such time and (B) the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures of all Lenders shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments in effect at such time; (ii) no Swing Line Advance shall be made by the Swing Line Lender if the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 have not been met as of the date of such Swing Line Advance, it being agreed by the Borrower that the giving of the applicable Notice of Borrowing and the acceptance by the Borrower of the proceeds of such Swing Line 

Advance shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that on the date of such Swing Line Advance such conditions have been met; (iii) each Swing Line Advance shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $100,000 and in integral multiples of $50,000 in excess thereof; and (iv) if an AutoBorrow Agreement is in effect, such additional terms and conditions of such AutoBorrow Agreement shall have been satisfied, and in the event that any of the terms of this Section 2.3(a) conflict with such AutoBorrow Agreement, the terms of such AutoBorrow Agreement shall govern and control.  No Lender shall have any rights or obligations under any AutoBorrow Agreement, but each Revolving Lender shall have the obligation to purchase and fund risk participations in the Swing Line Advances and to refinance Swing Line Advances as provided below.
(b)    Prepayment.  Within the limits expressed in this Agreement, amounts advanced pursuant to Section 2.3(a) may from time to time be borrowed, prepaid without penalty, and reborrowed.  If the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Advances ever exceeds the Swing Line Sublimit Amount, the Borrower shall, upon receipt of written notice of such condition from the Swing Line Lender prepay the outstanding principal of the Swing Line Advances in the amount of such excess.  If an AutoBorrow Agreement is in effect, each prepayment of a Swing Line Borrowing shall be made as provided in such AutoBorrow Agreement.
(c)    Reimbursements for Swing Line Obligations.
(i)The Borrower agrees to pay to the Swing Line Lender the principal amount of such Swing Line Advances and interest, premium, fees, and other amounts owed by the Borrower with respect to the Swing Line Advances when due and payable under the terms of this Agreement and, if an AutoBorrow Agreement is in effect, in accordance with the terms of such AutoBorrow Agreement.  If the Borrower does not pay to the Swing Line Lender any such amounts when due and payable, the Swing Line Lender may upon notice to the Administrative Agent request the satisfaction of such obligation by the making of a Revolving Borrowing in the amount equal to such unpaid amount.  Upon such request, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested the making of a Revolving Borrowing of Base Rate Advances in the amount of such obligation and the transfer of the proceeds thereof to the Swing Line Lender.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly forward notice of such Revolving Borrowing to the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders, and each Revolving Lender shall, regardless of whether (A) the conditions in Section 3.2 have been met, (B) such notice complies with Section 2.4, or (C) a Default exists, make available such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver the proceeds thereof to the Swing Line Lender for application to such amounts owed to the Swing Line Lender.  The Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably authorizes, empowers, and directs the Swing Line Lender to make such requests for Revolving Borrowings on behalf of the Borrower, and the Revolving Lenders to make Revolving Advances to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender in satisfaction of such obligations.  The Administrative Agent and each Revolving Lender may record and otherwise treat the making of such Revolving Borrowings as the making of a Revolving Borrowing to the Borrower under this Agreement as if requested by the Borrower.  Nothing herein is intended to release the Borrower’s obligations with respect to Swing Line Advances, but only to provide an additional method of payment therefor.  The making of any Borrowing under this Section 2.3(c) shall not constitute a cure or waiver of any Default or Event of Default, other than the payment Default or Event of Default which is satisfied by the application of the amounts deemed advanced hereunder, caused by the Borrower’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Agreement.
(ii)If at any time, the Revolving Commitments shall have expired or be terminated while any Swing Line Advance is outstanding, each Revolving Lender, at the sole option of the Swing Line Lender, shall either (A) notwithstanding the expiration or termination of the Revolving Commitments, make a Revolving Advance as a Base Rate Advance, or (B) be deemed, without further action by any Person, to have purchased from the Swing Line Lender a participation in such Swing Line Advance, 

in either case in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Pro Rata Share of the outstanding aggregate principal balance of the Swing Line Advances.  The Administrative Agent shall notify each such Revolving Lender of the amount of such Revolving Advance or participation, and such Revolving Lender will transfer to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender on the next Business Day following such notice, in Same Day Funds, the amount of such Revolving Advance or participation.
(iii)If any such Revolving Lender shall not have so made its Revolving Advance or its participation available to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.3, such Revolving Lender agrees to pay interest thereon for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid at the lesser of (A) the Federal Funds Rate for such day for the first three days and thereafter the interest rate applicable to the Revolving Advance and (B) the Maximum Rate.  Whenever, at any time after the Administrative Agent has received from any Revolving Lender such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Advance or participation in a Swing Line Advance, the Administrative Agent receives any payment on account thereof, the Administrative Agent will pay to such Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s Revolving Advance or participating interest was outstanding and funded), which payment shall be subject to repayment by such Lender if such payment received by the Administrative Agent is required to be returned.  Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make such Revolving Advance or purchase such participation pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (1) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender or any other Person may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (2) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or the termination of the Commitments; (3) any breach of this Agreement by the Borrower or any other Lender; or (4) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.  Each Swing Line Advance, once so participated by any Revolving Lender, shall cease to be a Swing Line Advance with respect to that amount for purposes of this Agreement, but shall continue to be a Revolving Advance.
(d)    Method of Borrowing.  If an AutoBorrow Agreement is in effect, each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made as provided in such AutoBorrow Agreement or pursuant to a request in accordance with the immediately succeeding sentence.  Except as provided in clause (c) above and except for Swing Line Borrowings made pursuant to an AutoBorrow Agreement, each request for a Swing Line Advance shall be made pursuant to telephone notice to the Swing Line Lender given no later than 1:00 p.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the date of the proposed Swing Line Advance, promptly confirmed by a completed and executed Notice of Borrowing sent by telecopy, facsimile or, unless otherwise required by the Administrative Agent or Swing Line Lender prior to such delivery, electronic mail (PDF), to the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender.  The Swing Line Lender will promptly make the Swing Line Advance available to the Borrower at the Borrower’s account with the Administrative Agent.
(e)Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender.  The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Advances (provided that any failure of the Swing Line Lender to provide such invoice shall not release the Borrower from its obligation to pay such interest).  Until each Revolving Lender funds its Revolving Advance or participation pursuant to clause (c) above, interest in respect of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Pro Rata Share of the Swing Line Advances 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 Advances directly to the Swing Line Lender.
(g)Defaulting Lender.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Swing Line Lender shall not be obligated to make a Swing Line Advance at such time a Defaulting Lender exists hereunder, unless such Defaulting Lender’s Fronting Exposure as to Swing Line Advances has been fully reallocated or Cash Collateralized pursuant to Section 2.16 below or the Swing Line Lender has entered into other 

satisfactory arrangements with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender to eliminate the Swing Line Lender’s risk with respect to such Defaulting Lender.
Section 2.4    Advances.
(a)    Notice.  Each Borrowing (other than Swing Line Borrowings, which shall be governed by Section 2.3(d) above), shall be made pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing given not later than (i) 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the third Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing, in the case of a Eurodollar Advance or (ii) 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the date of the proposed Borrowing, in the case of a Base Rate Advance, by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall in turn give to each Revolving Lender (in the case of any Revolving Borrowing) or each Term Lender (in the case of any Term Borrowing) prompt notice of such proposed Borrowing.  The Borrowings to be made on the Effective Date shall be made pursuant to the applicable Notices of Borrowing given not later than 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the Effective Date by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Revolving Lender (in the case of any Revolving Borrowing) or each Term Lender (in the case of any Term Borrowing) prompt notice of such proposed Borrowing.  Each Notice of Borrowing shall be given in writing sent by facsimile, hand delivery, or, unless otherwise required by the Administrative Agent prior to such delivery, electronic mail (PDF), and shall specify (i) the requested date of such Borrowing, (ii) the requested Type and Class of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing, and (iv) if such Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurodollar Advances, the requested Interest Period for each such Advance; provided that, any Borrowings to be made on the Effective Date may consist of Eurodollar Advances if the Borrower has, on or prior to the third Business Day before the Effective Date, executed and delivered a breakage indemnity agreement acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.  In the case of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Eurodollar Advances, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender (in the case of any Revolving Borrowing) or each Term Lender (in the case of any Term Borrowing) of the applicable interest rate under Section 2.8(b).  Each Lender shall, before 12:00 noon (Houston, Texas time) on the date of such Revolving Borrowing or Term Borrowing, as applicable, make available for the account of its applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.9, or such other location as the Administrative Agent may specify by notice to the Lenders, in Same Day Funds, such Lender’s Revolving Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Borrowing or such Lender’s Term Pro Rata Share of such Term Borrowing, as the case may be.  After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article 3, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower at its account with the Administrative Agent or as otherwise directed by the Borrower with written notice to the Administrative Agent.
(b)    Conversions and Continuations.  In order to elect to Convert or continue a Term Advance or a Revolving Advance under this paragraph, the Borrower shall deliver an irrevocable Notice of Continuation or Conversion to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s office no later than 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) (i) on the Business Day before the date of the proposed conversion date in the case of a Conversion to a Base Rate Advance and (ii) at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed Conversion or continuation date in the case of a Conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Advance.  Each such Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be in writing sent by facsimile, hand delivery, or, unless otherwise required by the Administrative Agent prior to such delivery, electronic mail (PDF), specifying (i) the requested Conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the amount, Type, and Class of the Advance to be Converted or continued, (iii) whether a Conversion or continuation is requested and, if a Conversion, into what Type of Advance, and (iv) in the case of a Conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Advance, the requested Interest Period.  Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion or Continuation under this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall provide each Revolving Lender (in the case of any Conversion or continuation of a Revolving Borrowing) or each Term Lender (in the case of any Conversion or continuation of a Term Borrowing)  with a copy thereof and, in the case of a Conversion to or a Continuation of a Eurodollar Advance, notify each such Lender of the applicable interest 

rate under Section 2.8(b).  The portion of Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing that are converted to Advances of another Type shall constitute a new Borrowing.
(c)    Certain Limitations.  Notwithstanding anything in paragraphs (a) and (b) above:
(i)at no time shall there be more than ten Interest Periods applicable to outstanding Eurodollar Advances;
(ii)the Borrower may not select Eurodollar Advances for any Borrowing at any time when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;
(iii)if any Lender shall, at least one Business Day before the date of any requested Borrowing, notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any Legal Requirement makes it unlawful, or that any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to perform its obligations under this Agreement to make Eurodollar Advances or to fund or maintain Eurodollar Advances, (A) the obligation of such Lender to make such Eurodollar Advance as part of the requested Borrowing or for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until such Lender shall notify the Borrower that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and such Lender’s portion of such requested Borrowing or any subsequent Borrowing of Eurodollar Advances shall be made in the form of a Base Rate Advance, and (B) such Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Lending Office if the making of such designation would avoid the effect of this paragraph and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender;
(iv)if the Administrative Agent is unable to determine the Eurodollar Rate for Swing Line Advances, then the Swing Line Advances shall bear interest at the Adjusted Base Rate (not giving effect to the Daily One-Month LIBOR limit thereon) plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Advances until the Administrative Agent is able to determine the Eurodollar Rate for Swing Line Advances;
(v)if the Administrative Agent is unable to determine the Eurodollar Rate for Eurodollar Advances comprising any requested Borrowing, then the right of the Borrower to select Eurodollar Advances for such Borrowing or for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and each Advance comprising such Borrowing shall be a Base Rate Advance;
(vi)if the Majority Revolving Lenders (as to a Revolving Borrowing) or the Majority Term Lenders (as to a Term Borrowing) shall, at least one Business Day before the date of any requested Borrowing, notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for Eurodollar Advances comprising such Borrowing will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or funding their respective Eurodollar Advances, as the case may be, for such Borrowing, the right of the Borrower to select Eurodollar Advances for such Borrowing or for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders or the Term Lenders, as the case may be, that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and each Advance comprising such Borrowing shall be a Base Rate Advance; 
(vii)if the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of Interest Period in Section 1.1 and paragraph (b) above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration; and
(viii)if the Borrower shall fail to deliver a timely Notice of Continuation or Conversion with respect to a Borrowing comprised of Eurodollar Advances in accordance with paragraph (b) above prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to a Borrowing comprised of 

Base Rate Advances, and the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders (in the case of a Revolving Borrowing) or the Term Lenders (in the case of a Term Borrowing).
(d)    Notices Irrevocable.  Each Notice of Borrowing and Notice of Continuation or Conversion delivered by the Borrower hereunder shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.
(e)    Administrative Agent Reliance.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender before the date of any Term Borrowing or Revolving Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made its applicable Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.4(a), and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount.  If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made its applicable Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to immediately repay to the Administrative Agent on demand such corresponding amount, together with interest on such amount, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable on such day to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the lesser of (A) the Federal Funds Rate for such day and (B) the Maximum Rate.  If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount and interest as provided above, such corresponding amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement even though not made on the same day as the other Advances comprising such Borrowing.

Section 2.5    Prepayments.
(a)    Right to Prepay; Ratable Prepayment.  The Borrower shall have no right to prepay any principal amount of any Advance except as provided in this Section 2.5 and, with respect to Swing Line Advances, Section 2.3(b), and all notices given pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be irrevocable (except as described in clause (b) of this Section 2.5) and binding upon the Borrower.  Each payment of any Advance pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be made in a manner such that all Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing are paid in whole or ratably in part (other than Advances owing to a Defaulting Lender as provided in Section 2.16).
(b)    Optional.  The Borrower may elect to prepay the Advances without penalty or premium (except as set forth in Section 2.10) after giving by 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) (i) in the case of Eurodollar Advances, at least three Business Days’ or (ii) in case of Base Rate Advances, same Business Day’s, irrevocable prior written notice to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of such prepayment; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the applicable Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.1(c), then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.1(c).  If any such notice is given, the Borrower shall prepay the Advances in whole or ratably in part in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount specified in such notice, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.10 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date; provided that (A) any amounts prepaid in respect of Eurodollar Advances shall be applied to Eurodollar Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing, (B) each optional prepayment of Eurodollar Advances shall be in a minimum amount not less than $3,000,000 and in multiple integrals of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (C) each optional prepayment of Base Rate Advances shall be in a minimum amount not less than $1,000,000 and in multiple integrals of $500,000 in excess thereof and (D) each optional prepayment of Swing Line Advances shall be in a minimum amount not less than $100,000 and in multiple integrals of $50,000 in excess thereof.  Full prepayments of any Borrowing are permitted without restriction of amounts.  In addition to the foregoing, if an AutoBorrow 

Agreement is in effect, any prepayment of Swing Line Advances may also be made as provided in such AutoBorrow Agreement.
(c)    Mandatory.
(i)    If, on any Business Day, the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures of all Revolving Lenders exceeds the aggregate Revolving Commitments then in effect, then the Borrower shall, on such Business Day, to the extent of such excess: first, prepay to the Swing Line Lender the outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Advances; and second, prepay to the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Pro Rata Shares the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Advances.
(ii)    If an increase in the aggregate Revolving Commitments is effected as permitted under Section 2.15, the Borrower shall prepay any Revolving Advances outstanding on the date such increase is effected to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Advances ratable to reflect the revised Revolving Pro Rata Shares of the Revolving Lenders arising from such increase.  Any prepayment made by the Borrower in accordance with this clause (ii) may be made with the proceeds of Revolving Advances made by all the Revolving Lenders in connection with such increase occurring simultaneously with the prepayment.
(d)    Interest; Costs.  Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.10 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date.

Section 2.6    Repayment.

(a)    Revolving Advances.  The Borrower promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of each Revolving Lender the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Advances on the Revolving Maturity Date.
(b)    Term Advances.  The Borrower promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of each Term Lender the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Advances on the Term Maturity Date.
(c)    Swing Line Advances.  Each Swing Line Advance shall be paid in full on the Swing Line Payment Date applicable to such Swing Line Advance.  All outstanding Swing Line Advances shall be due and payable on the Revolving Maturity Date.

Section 2.7    Fees.
(a)    Commitment Fees.  
(i)    Revolving Commitments.  Subject to Section 2.16(a)(iii), the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a revolving commitment fee, which shall accrue at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Commitment Fees on the daily Unused Revolving Commitment Amount of such Lender during the period from the Effective Date until the Revolving Maturity Date.  Commitment Fees under this clause (i) are due and payable quarterly in arrears on March 31st, June 30th, September 30th, and December 31st of each year, commencing on December 31, 2014, and on the Revolving Maturity Date.  For purposes of this Section 2.7(a)(i) only, Swing Line Borrowings shall not reduce the amount of the unused Revolving Commitment.
(ii)    Term Commitments.  Subject to Section 2.16(a)(iii), the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Term Lender a term commitment fee, which shall accrue at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Commitment Fees on the daily Unused Term Commitment Amount of such Lender during the period from the Effective Date until the Term Commitment Termination Date.  Commitment Fees under this clause (ii) are due and payable quarterly 

in arrears on March 31st, June 30th, September 30th, and December 31st of each year, commencing on December 31, 2014, and on the Term Commitment Termination Date. 
(b)    Other Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay the fees to the Administrative Agent, to Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and to DNB Markets, Inc. as set forth in the applicable Fee Letters.

Section 2.8    Interest.
(a)    Base Rate Advances.  Each Base Rate Advance shall bear interest at the Adjusted Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Advances in effect from time to time.  The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Revolving Lenders or Term Lenders, as applicable, all accrued but unpaid interest on Base Rate Advances in respect of Revolving Borrowings or Term Borrowings, as applicable, quarterly in arrears, on each March 31st, June 30th, September 30th, and December 31st , commencing on December 31, 2014, and on the Revolving Maturity Date or the Term Maturity Date, as applicable.  
(b)    Eurodollar Advances.  Each Eurodollar Advance shall bear interest during its Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Advances for such period.  The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Revolving Lenders or Term Lenders, as applicable, all accrued but unpaid interest on Eurodollar Advances on the last day of the Interest Period therefor (provided that for Eurodollar Advances with six month or twelve month Interest Periods, accrued but unpaid interest shall also be due on each date occurring at three-month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period), on the date any Eurodollar Advance is repaid, and on the Revolving Maturity Date or the Term Maturity Date, as applicable.
(c)    Swing Line Advances.  Subject to Section 2.4(c)(iv), each Swing Line Advance shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Daily One-Month LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Advances.  The Borrower shall pay to Swing Line Lender all accrued but unpaid interest on the Swing Line Advances quarterly in arrears on each March 31st, June 30th, September 30th, and December 31st, commencing on December 31, 2014, and on the Revolving Maturity Date.
(d)    Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Margin Based on Leverage Ratio.  In the event that any financial statement or Compliance Certificate delivered (or deemed delivered) pursuant to Section 5.2 is shown to be inaccurate (regardless of whether this Agreement or the Commitments are in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a larger Applicable Margin for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Margin applied for such Applicable Period, then (i) the Borrower shall immediately deliver to the Administrative Agent a corrected Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Period, (ii) the Applicable Margin shall be determined as if the larger Applicable Margin that would have applied were applicable for such Applicable Period, and (iii) the Borrower shall immediately, without further action by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, the accrued additional interest owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period.  This Section 2.8(d) shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to the Default Rate of interest as set forth in Section 2.8(e) or Article 7.  The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.8(d) shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.
(e)    Default Rate.  Subject to Section 9.10 and 9.11 hereof, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender Party, interest at the Past Due Rate on any principal, interest, fee or any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder to, or for the account of, such Lender Party (but, if such amount is interest, only to the extent legally allowed), which amount has not been paid within five (5) days after the applicable date due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), for the period commencing on the expiration of such five (5) day period until the same is paid in full.

Section 2.9    Illegality.  If any Lender shall notify the Borrower that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any applicable Legal Requirement makes it unlawful, or that any central bank or 

other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to perform its obligations under this Agreement to make, maintain or fund any Eurodollar Advances of such Lender then outstanding hereunder, (a) the Borrower shall, at its option, either prepay in full all Eurodollar Advances of such Lender then outstanding or convert all such Eurodollar Advances to Base Rate Advances, in each case, on the last day of the Interest Period for each such outstanding Eurodollar Advance (or within such earlier period as required by law), together with accrued interest on the principal amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.10 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date, and (b) the right of the Borrower to select Eurodollar Advances from such Lender for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until such Lender shall notify the Borrower that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.  Each Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Lending Office if the making of such designation would avoid the effect of this paragraph and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

Section 2.10    Breakage Costs.  

(a)    Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:
(i)    any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment (including any deemed payment or repayment and any reallocated repayment to Non-Defaulting Lenders provided for in Section 2.12(a) or Section 2.16) of any Eurodollar Advance on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);
(ii)    any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make an Advance) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Eurodollar Advance on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower; or
(iii)    any assignment of an Eurodollar Advance on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.14;

including loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Advance and from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.  Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Advance had such event not occurred or such circumstance had not existed, at the Eurodollar Rate that would have been applicable to such Advance, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Advance), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the Eurodollar market.  A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount claimed by such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 Business Days after receipt thereof.
Section 2.11    Increased Costs.
a.Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:
i.impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit 

extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurodollar Rate);
ii.subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
iii.impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Advances made by such Lender;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Eurodollar Advance or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Advance, then, subject to paragraphs (c) and (d) of this Section, upon request of such Lender or such other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
b.Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines in good faith that any Change in 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 Commitment of such Lender or the Advances made by, or participations in Swing Line Advances held by, such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or 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.
c.Certificates for Reimbursement.  A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, including in reasonable detail a description of the basis for such claim for compensation and a calculation of such amount or amounts, shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 Business Days after receipt thereof
d.Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

Section 2.12    Payments and Computations.
(a)    Payments.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3 with respect to Swing Line Advances, all payments of principal, interest, and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement and other Credit Documents shall be made to the Administrative Agent in Dollars and in Same Day Funds, without setoff, deduction (other than for Taxes as required by applicable Legal Requirement), or counterclaim; provided that, the Borrower may setoff amounts owing to any Lender that is at such time a Defaulting Lender against Advances that such Defaulting Lender failed to the fund to the Borrower under this Agreement (the “Unfunded Advances”) so long as (i) the Borrower shall have delivered prior 

written notice of such setoff to the Administrative Agent and such Defaulting Lender, (ii) the Advances made by the Non-Defaulting Lenders as part of the original Borrowing to which the Unfunded Advances applied shall still be outstanding, (iii) if such Defaulting Lender failed to fund Advances under more than one Borrowing, such setoff shall be applied in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and (iv) upon the application of such setoff, the Unfunded Advances shall be deemed to have been made by such Defaulting Lender on the effective date of such setoff.
(b)    Payment Procedures.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3 with respect to Swing Line Advances, the Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement not later than 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the day when due to the Administrative Agent at such location as the Administrative Agent shall designate in writing to the Borrower.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter, and in any event prior to the close of business on the day any timely payment is made, cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees ratably (other than amounts payable solely to the Administrative Agent or a specific Lender pursuant to Sections 2.9, 2.10, 2.11, 2.13, 2.14, and 9.2 but after taking into account payments effected pursuant to Section 9.1) in accordance with each Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share to the Lenders for the account of their respective applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Upon receipt of other amounts due solely to the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender, or a specific Lender, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such amounts to the appropriate party to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(c)    Non‐Business Day Payments.  Whenever any payment shall be stated to be 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 in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be; provided that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.
(d)    Computations.  All computations of interest for Base Rate Advances and Commitment Fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365/366 days and all computations of all other interest and other fees shall be made by the Administrative agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day, but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable.  Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an amount of interest or fees shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(e)    Sharing of Payments, Etc.  If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Advances or other Obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Advances and accrued interest thereon or other such Obligations greater than its applicable Pro Rata Share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (i) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (ii) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Advances and such other Obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Advances and other Obligations owing them in accordance with their respective applicable Pro Rata Shares as provided herein; provided that:
A.if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and
B.the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds 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 Advances or participations in LC Disbursements or Swing Line Advances to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).

The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Legal Requirement, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.
Section 2.13    Taxes.
(a)    For purposes of this Section 2.13, the term “applicable Legal Requirement” includes FATCA.
(b)    Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments to a Recipient by or on account of any obligation of any Credit Party under any Credit Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Legal Requirement.  If any applicable Legal Requirement (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Legal Requirement and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Credit Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings for Indemnified Tax applicable to additional sums payable under this clause (b)) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding for Indemnified Tax been made.
(c)    Payment of Other Taxes by Credit Parties.  The Credit Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Legal Requirement, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(d)    Indemnification by Credit Parties.  The Credit Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 30 days after written demand therefor (but subject to the last sentence of this clause (d)), for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this clause (d)) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability, setting forth the basis of such Indemnified Tax, delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Failure or delay on the part of any Administrative Agent or Lender to demand payment pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Person’s right to demand such payment; provided that, no Recipient shall be indemnified for any Indemnified Taxes the demand for which is made to the Borrower later than six months after the later of (i) the date on which the relevant Governmental Authority makes written demand upon such Recipient for payment of such Indemnified Taxes, and (ii) the date on which such Recipient has made payment of such Indemnified Taxes.
(e)    Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Credit Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Credit Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.7(d) relating to the maintenance of a 

Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Credit Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Credit Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).
(f)    Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Credit Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.13, such Credit Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(g)    Status of Lenders.  
(i)     Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable Legal Requirement or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Legal Requirement or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Legal Requirement or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.13(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
A.    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), properly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
B.    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: (i) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Credit Document, properly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Credit Document, properly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; (ii) properly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI; (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender 

claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, is not a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, and is not a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) properly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or (iv) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, properly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by properly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 or Exhibit G-3, IRS Form W-9, or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
C.any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Legal Requirement as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Legal Requirement to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
D.if a payment made to a Lender under any 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 (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Legal Requirement and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Legal Requirement (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 
Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
h.    Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.13 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.13), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified 

party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(i)    Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.13 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Credit Document.
(j)    FATCA Grandfathering.  For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to treat) this Agreement and any Advance as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).
(k)    Administrative Agent.  On or before the date that Wells Fargo (or any successor or replacement Administrative Agent) becomes the Administrative Agent hereunder, it shall deliver to the Borrower properly completed and executed originals of either (i) IRS Form W-9, or (ii) such other documentation as will establish that the Borrower can make payments to the Administrative Agent without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States.  The Administrative Agent agrees that if any form or documentation it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or documentation.

Section 2.14    Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
(a)    Designation of a Different Lending Office.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.11, or requires the Borrower or any Guarantor to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.13, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.11 or 2.13, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(b)    Replacement Lender.  If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.11, or the Borrower or a Guarantor is or will be required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.13, (ii) any Lender suspends its obligations to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Advances pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(iii) or Section 2.9, (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or (iv) any Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender (any Lender described in the foregoing clause (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv), a “Subject Lender”), then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (and in the case of a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent may) upon notice to such Subject Lender and the Administrative Agent (or, if elected by the Administrative Agent with respect to a Defaulting Lender, upon notice by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower), require such Subject Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 9.7), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.11 or Section 2.13) and obligations under this Agreement and the related 

Credit Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:
(i)as to assignments required by the Borrower, the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 9.7, unless such fee has been waived by the Administrative Agent;
(ii)such Subject Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.10) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);
(iii)in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.11 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.13, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; 
(iv)such assignment does not conflict with applicable Legal Requirements; 
(v)with respect to a Non-Consenting Lender, the proposed amendment, modification, waiver, consent or release with respect to this Agreement or any other Credit Document has been approved by the Majority Lenders (or the Majority Revolving Lenders or the Majority Term Lenders, as the case may be) and such agreement, amendment, waiver, consent or release can be effected as a result of such assignment (and, if applicable, one or more other assignments) contemplated by this Section; and
(vi)if such Lender is being replaced solely as a result of it being a Defaulting Lender, then such Lender may only be replaced in its capacity as a Revolving Lender and, if it has any unused Term Commitment, in its capacity as a Term Lender but, in any event, if its Term Commitment is fully funded, then not in its capacity as a Term Lender.
A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.  Solely for purposes of effecting any assignment involving a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.14 and to the extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements, each Lender hereby designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, for and on behalf of and in the name of such Lender to execute, acknowledge and deliver the Assignment and Acceptance required hereunder if such Lender is a Defaulting Lender and such Lender shall be bound thereby as fully and effectively as if such Lender had personally executed, acknowledged and delivered the same.  In lieu of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent replacing a Defaulting Lender as provided in this Section 2.14, the Borrower may terminate such Defaulting Lender’s Commitments as provided in Section 2.1(c)(iii).
Section 2.15    Increase in Commitments.
(a)    At any time and from time to time prior to the Revolving Maturity Date, with prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may effectuate one or more increases in the aggregate Revolving Commitments (each such increase being a “Commitment Increase”), by increasing the Revolving Commitment of one or more Revolving Lenders (each, an “Increasing Lender”) or by causing one or more Eligible Assignees that are not already Revolving Lenders at such time to become parties to this Agreement as Revolving Lenders (each, an “Additional Lender”); provided, however, that (i) each such Commitment Increase shall be equal to at least $5,000,000, (ii) all Revolving Commitments and Revolving Advances provided pursuant to a Commitment Increase shall be available on the same terms as those applicable to the existing Revolving Commitments and Revolving Advances (other than any upfront fees and arrangement fees, if any, applicable thereto), (iii) no Lender’s Revolving Commitment may be increased without the consent of such Lender and (iv) the aggregate amount of all such Commitment Increases shall not exceed 

$300,000,000.  The Borrower shall provide notice of such proposed Commitment Increase pursuant to this Section 2.15 to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.  This Section 2.15 shall not be construed to create any obligation on the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders to advance or to commit to advance any credit to the Borrower or to arrange for any other Person to advance or to commit to advance any credit to the Borrower.
(b)    Each Commitment Increase shall become effective on the date (the “Increase Date”) on or prior to which the following conditions shall have been satisfied: (i) the receipt by the Administrative Agent of (A) an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent signed by the Borrower, each Increasing Lender and each Additional Lender, setting forth the Revolving Commitments of each such Increasing Lender and Additional Lender and setting forth the agreement of each Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement and to be bound by all the terms and provisions hereof binding upon each Lender and each Revolving Lender and (B) such evidence of appropriate authorization on the part of the Borrower with respect to such Commitment Increase and such legal opinions as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request with respect to such Commitment Increase, (ii) the funding by each Increasing Lender and Additional Lender of the Revolving Advances to be made by each such Lender to effect the prepayment required by Section 2.5(c)(ii), and (iii) receipt by the Administrative Agent of a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower demonstrating pro forma compliance with the covenant set forth in Section 6.13 (after taking into account any Revolving Advances to be funded on such Increase Date) and stating that, both immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such Commitment Increase, no Default has occurred and is continuing, and that all representations and warranties made by the Borrower in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof), unless such representation or warranty relates to an earlier date which remains true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof).
(c)    Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, from and after the date of each Commitment Increase, all calculations and payments of interest on the Revolving Advances shall take into account the actual Revolving Commitments of each Lender and the principal amount outstanding of each Revolving Advance made by such Lender during the relevant period of time.

Section 2.16    Defaulting Lender.
(a)    Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:
i.Waivers and Amendments.  The Commitments and Aggregate Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders (or each Lender), the Majority Lenders, the Majority Revolving Lenders, the Majority Term Lenders or each adversely affected Lender have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.3); provided that any waiver, amendment or modification (A) that would (1) increase any Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, (2) reduce the principal of, or interest on, any Advance owed or to be owed to such Defaulting Lender, (3) reduce any fees payable to such Defaulting Lender, or (4) postpone or extend any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, any Advance, including the Revolving Maturity Date, the Term Maturity Date or for any payment of any fees payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or (B) requiring the consent of all Lenders or each adversely affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than all other Lenders or all other adversely affected Lenders, as the case may be, shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

ii.Defaulting Lender Waterfall. 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 Article 7 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 7.4 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 of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Swing Line Lender hereunder, in accordance with such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Pro Rata Share; third, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Advance hereunder in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fourth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Advances under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or the Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no Default or Event of 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 seventh, 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 Advances in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Advances were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.1 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances of all Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Pro Rata Shares prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Swing Line Advances are held by the Revolving Lenders (or, if applicable, the Term Lenders) in accordance with their respective applicable Pro Rata Shares, 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 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
iii.Certain Fees.  No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).
iv.Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Swing Line Advances shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders that are Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment.  No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from such 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, Repayment of Swing Line Advances.  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 Legal Requirement, prepay Swing Line Advances in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure or Cash Collateralize the Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure consistent with the procedures set forth in clause (vi) below.
vi.Cash Collateral Account.   If the Borrower elects to deposit funds in the Cash Collateral Account pursuant to clause (v) above, then the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall establish the Cash Collateral Account and the Borrower shall execute any documents and agreements, including the Administrative Agent’s standard form assignment of deposit accounts, that the Administrative Agent requests in connection therewith to establish the Cash Collateral Account and grant the Administrative Agent a first priority, perfected security interest in such account and the funds therein.  The Borrower hereby pledges to the Administrative Agent and grants the Administrative Agent a security interest in the Cash Collateral Account, whenever established, all funds held in the Cash Collateral Account from time to time, and all proceeds thereof, as security for the payment Obligations with respect to Swing Line Advances. Funds held in the Cash Collateral Account shall be promptly applied by the Administrative Agent at the request of the Swing Line Lender to the payment of Swing Line Advances.  To the extent that any surplus funds are held in the Cash Collateral Account above the aggregate Fronting Exposure of all then existing Defaulting Lenders during the existence of an Event of Default the Administrative Agent may (A) hold such surplus funds in the Cash Collateral Account as cash collateral for the Obligations owing to the Revolving Lenders and the Swing Line Lender or (B) apply such surplus funds to any Obligations in any manner directed by the Majority Revolving Lenders.  If no Event of Default exists, then at the Borrower’s written request, the Administrative Agent shall release any surplus funds held in the Cash Collateral Account above all Defaulting Lenders’ Fronting Exposure.  Funds held in the Cash Collateral Account may be invested in Liquid Investments maintained with, and under the sole dominion and control of, the Administrative Agent or in another investment if mutually agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, but the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to make any investment of the funds therein.  The Administrative Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in the Cash Collateral Account and shall be deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own property, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any such funds.
(b)    Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender, the Swing Line Lender agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Swing Line Advances to be held by the Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Pro Rata 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 Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.17    Extension of Maturity Dates. 
(a)    Request for Extension.  No earlier than 90 days prior and no later than 30 days prior to each anniversary of the Effective Date, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may request that each Revolving Lender extend its Revolving Maturity Date then in effect (the “Existing Revolving Maturity Date”) or that each Term Lender extend its Term Maturity Date then in effect (the “Existing Term Maturity Date”) for an additional one-year period; provided that (i) no more than two (2) of such one-year extensions of the Revolving Maturity Date shall be permitted hereunder and (ii) no more than two (2) of such one-year extensions of the Term Maturity Date shall be permitted hereunder.  At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten (10) Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders) (the “Response Period”). 
(b)    Lender Elections to Extend; Payments to Declining Lenders  Each Lender that, in its sole and absolute discretion, agrees to extend its Revolving Maturity Date  (each, a “Revolving Extending Lender”) or its Term Maturity Date (each, a “Term Extending Lender”) shall notify the Administrative Agent within the Response Period of its agreement to extend its applicable Maturity Dates.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders responses to each request made under this Section 2.17.  In the case of any requested extension of the Revolving Maturity Date, the Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Lender that declines or fails to respond to the Borrower’s request for such an extension within the Response Period (each, a “Revolving Declining Lender”) shall be terminated on the Existing Revolving Maturity Date then in effect for such Revolving Lender (without regard to any extension by other Lenders) and the aggregate Revolving Commitments of all Revolving Lenders shall be reduced by the total Revolving Commitments of all Revolving Declining Lenders expiring on the Existing Revolving Maturity Date unless and until one or more Eligible Assignees (including other Lenders) shall have agreed to provide a, or in the case of any existing Revolving Lender increase its, Revolving Commitment hereunder in accordance with clause (c) below. The Borrower shall pay in full the unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Advances owing to each Revolving Declining Lender, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees accrued and unpaid under this Agreement and all other amounts due to such Revolving Declining Lender under this Agreement on its Existing Revolving Maturity Date or the earlier replacement of such Revolving Declining Lender pursuant to clause (c) below.  If any Term Lender declines or fails to respond to the Borrower’s request for an extension of the Term Maturity Date within the Response Period (each, a “Term Declining Lender” and, together with the Revolving Declining Lenders, the “Declining Lenders”), the Borrower shall pay in full the unpaid principal amount of all Term Advances owing to such Term Declining Lender, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees accrued and unpaid under this Agreement and all other amounts due to such Term Declining Lender under this Agreement on its Existing Term Maturity Date or the earlier replacement of such Term Declining Lender pursuant to clause (c) below.
(c)    Replacement of Declining Lenders.  The Borrower may require any Declining Lender to (and, upon request of the Borrower, any such Declining Lender shall) assign in full its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees (a “Replacement Lender”); provided that (i) such assignment otherwise complies with Section 9.7 (including any consents required under Section 9.7(b)(iii)), (ii) with respect to an extension of the Revolving Maturity Date, such Declining Lender receives payment in full of the unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Advances owing to such Declining Lender, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees accrued and unpaid under this Agreement to the date of such payment of principal and all other amounts due to such Declining Lender under this Agreement as a Revolving Lender and (iii) with respect to an extension of the Term Maturity Date, such Declining Lender receives payment in full of the unpaid principal amount of all Term Advances owing to such Declining Lender, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees accrued and unpaid under this Agreement to the date of such payment of principal and all other amounts due to such Declining Lender under this Agreement as a Term Lender. Solely for purposes of effecting any assignment involving a Declining Lender 

under this Section 2.17 and to the extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements, each Lender hereby designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, for and on behalf of and in the name of such Lender to execute, acknowledge and deliver the Assignment and Acceptance required hereunder if such Lender is a Declining Lender and such Lender shall be bound thereby as fully and effectively as if such Lender had personally executed, acknowledged and delivered the same.  
(d)    Effective Date and Allocations.  If the Existing Revolving Maturity Date or Existing Term Maturity Date, as applicable, is extended in accordance with this Section 2.17, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine (i) the effective date(s) (the “Extension Effective Date(s)”) of the extension and, in the case of any extension of the Revolving Maturity Date, the final allocation of the Revolving Extending Lenders’ and the Replacement Lenders’ Revolving Commitments. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the Extension Effective Date(s) and of such final allocation of the Revolving Commitments.  
(e)    Extension; Conditions to Effectiveness.  With respect to a requested extension of the Existing Revolving Maturity Date, if (and only if) the total of the Revolving Commitments of the Revolving Extending Lenders and Replacement Lenders in effect immediately after such extension on the applicable Extension Effective Date would be more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments in effect immediately prior to the extension on the applicable Extension Effective Date, then, effective as of such Extension Effective Date, the Existing Revolving Maturity Date of each Revolving Extending Lender and of each such Replacement Lender shall be extended to the date falling one year after the Existing Revolving Maturity Date (except that, if such date is not a Business Day, such Maturity Date as so extended shall be the next preceding Business Day).  With respect to a requested extension of the Existing Term Maturity Date, if (and only if) the total of the Term Exposures of the Term Extending Lenders and Replacement Lenders in effect immediately after such extension on the applicable Extension Effective Date would be more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Term Exposures in effect immediately prior to the extension on the applicable Extension Effective Date, then, effective as of such Extension Effective Date, the Existing Term Maturity Date of each Term Extending Lender and of each such Replacement Lender shall be extended to the date falling one year after the Existing Term Maturity Date (except that, if such date is not a Business Day, such Maturity Date as so extended shall be the next preceding Business Day).  In addition, as a condition precedent to such extension, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (i) an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent signed by the Borrower, each Extending Lender and each Replacement Lender, (ii) such evidence of appropriate authorization on the part of the Borrower with respect to such extension as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request and (iii) a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, certifying that, immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such extension, (1) all representations and warranties made by the Borrower in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof), unless such representation or warranty relates to an earlier date which remains true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof) except that for purposes of this Section, the representations and warranties contained in clauses (a) and (b) of Section 4.4 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent financial statements furnished pursuant to Section 5.2(a), and (2) no Event of Default then exists or would be caused by such extension.  
(f)    Update of Representations and Warranties.

	ARTICLE 8
	THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 8.1    Appointment and Authority.  
(a)Each Lender and the Swing Line Lender hereby (i) irrevocably appoints Wells Fargo to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents and (ii) authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The provisions of this Article 8 are solely for the benefit of the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor any other Credit Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.  It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Credit Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to either Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Legal Requirement. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.
(b)Rights as a Lender.  The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.  Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.  Wells Fargo 

(and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of a Subsidiary for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.
(c)Exculpatory Provisions.  The Administrative Agent (which term as used in this Section 8.1(c) shall include its Related Parties) shall have no duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:
(i)shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
(ii)shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Credit Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Credit Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Credit Document or Legal Requirement, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and
(iii)shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, have any duty to disclose, nor shall it be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower, any Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided herein) (it being understood that this clause (i) shall not be construed to limit the Administrative Agent’s liability, if any, to the Borrower for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment.  The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent in writing by the Borrower, a Lender or the Swing Line Lender.  In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default, the Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 9.3) take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall reasonably be directed by the Majority Lenders, provided that, unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent 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 Lender Parties.
The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any recital, statement, warranty or representation (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the value, validity, enforceability, effectiveness, enforceability, sufficiency or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the inspection of, or to inspect, the Property (including the books and records) of any Credit Party or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof, (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 3 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent, or (vii) 

any litigation or collection proceedings (or to initiate or conduct any such litigation or proceedings) under any Credit Document unless requested by the Majority Lenders in writing and it receives indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders.
Section 8.2    Reliance by Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document, writing or other communication (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of an Advance or any Conversion or continuance of an Advance that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Swing Line Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Swing Line Lender unless such Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Swing Line Lender prior to the making of such Advance or Conversion or continuance of an Advance.  The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
Section 8.3    Delegation of Duties.  The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Credit Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through its Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.
Section 8.4    Indemnification.  THE LENDERS SEVERALLY AGREE TO INDEMNIFY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH AFFILIATE THEREOF AND ITS RELATED PARTIES (TO THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY THE BORROWER), RATABLY ACCORDING TO THEIR RESPECTIVE TOTAL PRO RATA SHARES, FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS, SUITS, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR DISBURSEMENTS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER WHICH MAY BE IMPOSED ON, INCURRED BY, OR ASSERTED AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES IN ANY WAY RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY CREDIT DOCUMENT OR ANY ACTION TAKEN OR OMITTED BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT (INCLUDING SUCH INDEMNITEE’S OWN NEGLIGENCE REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH NEGLIGENCE IS SOLE OR CONTRIBUTORY, ACTIVE OR PASSIVE, IMPUTED, JOINT OR TECHNICAL), AND INCLUDING ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES, PROVIDED THAT NO LENDER SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY PORTION OF SUCH LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS, SUITS, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR DISBURSEMENTS FOUND IN A FINAL, NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED FROM SUCH INDEMNITEE’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.  WITHOUT LIMITATION OF THE FOREGOING, EACH LENDER AGREES TO REIMBURSE THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PROMPTLY UPON DEMAND FOR ITS RATABLE SHARE 

(DETERMINED AS SET FORTH ABOVE IN THIS PARAGRAPH) OF (i) ANY OUT OF POCKET EXPENSES (INCLUDING REASONABLE COUNSEL FEES) INCURRED BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IN CONNECTION WITH THE PREPARATION, EXECUTION, DELIVERY, ADMINISTRATION, MODIFICATION, OR AMENDMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, AND (ii) ANY OUT OF POCKET EXPENSES (INCLUDING COUNSEL FEES) INCURRED BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IN CONNECTION WITH ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, IN ANY EVENT, INCLUDING LEGAL ADVICE IN RESPECT OF RIGHTS OR RESPONSIBILITIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT AND TO THE EXTENT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IS NOT REIMBURSED FOR SUCH BY THE BORROWER.
Section 8.5    Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender Party acknowledges and agrees that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party or any of their Related Parties, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender Party also acknowledges and agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party or any of their Related Parties, and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.  Except for notices, reports, and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder and for other information in the Administrative Agent’s possession which has been requested by a Lender and for which such Lender pays the Administrative Agent’s expenses in connection therewith, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition, or business of any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates.
Section 8.6    Resignation of Administrative Agent or Swing Line Lender.  
(a)    The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the other applicable Lender Parties and the Borrower.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, (i) the Majority Lenders shall have the right, with the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent is not required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint, as applicable, a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender.  If no such successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as may be agreed by the Majority Lenders and, if no Event of Default then exists, the Borrower) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor meeting the qualifications set forth above.  Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation by the Administrative Agent shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
(b)    If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Majority Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after such notice of removal is given (or such earlier day as may be agreed by the Majority Lenders and, if no Event of Default then exists, the Borrower) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.
(c)    With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable), (i) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (except that (y) in the case of any collateral security held by the

 Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Credit Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each applicable class of Lenders, until such time as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this paragraph.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents.  The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.  After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, the provisions of this Article 8, and Sections 9.1, and 9.2 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent its sub‐agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
(d)The Swing Line Lender may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower.  After the resignation of the Swing Line Lender hereunder, the retiring Swing Line Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of the Swing Line Lender under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents with respect to Swing Line Advances made by it prior to such resignation, but shall not be required to make any additional Swing Line Advances.  Upon such notice of resignation, the Borrower shall have the right to designate any other Lender as the Swing Line Lender with the consent of such Lender so long as operational matters related to the funding of Advances have been adequately addressed to the reasonable satisfaction of such new Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent (if such new Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent are not the same Person).
(e)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Person serving as the Swing Line Lender may not resign pursuant to the above provisions of this Section 8.6 unless such Person is, at the same time, resigning in its capacity as the Administrative Agent.
Section 8.7    Certain Authorization of Administrative Agent; Release of Guarantors.
(a)    The Administrative Agent is authorized (but not obligated) on behalf of the Lender Parties, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Lender Parties, from time to time, to take any action (other than enforcement actions requiring the consent of, or request by, the Majority Lenders as set forth in Section 7.2 or Section 7.3 above) in exigent circumstances as may be reasonably necessary to preserve any rights or privileges of the Lenders under the Credit Documents or applicable Legal Requirement.  
(b)    The Lender Parties irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to (i) release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Cash Collateral Account at such time when (1) all the Obligations (other than indemnity and other contingent obligations for which no claim shall have been asserted at any relevant time of determination) have been paid in full in cash and (2) the Lenders have no further Commitments under the Credit Agreement; and (ii) release a Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty and any other applicable Credit Document as contemplated by Section 5.6.

(d)    Notwithstanding anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary, the Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent, and each Lender Party hereby agree that no Lender Party shall have any right individually to enforce the Subsidiary Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Subsidiary Guaranty may be exercised solely by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lender Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Credit Documents.

The Borrower shall, and does hereby, indemnify, the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender, the Swing Line, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any other Credit Party insofar as such liabilities, damages, claims, costs and expenses arise out of, are related to or result from (i) any commitment letter related to the credit facilities provided for herein, (ii) the Transactions, (iii) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, (iv) the performance by the parties hereto or thereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, (v) the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (vi) in the case of Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, or (vii) any Advance or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom; in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole negligence of the Indemnitee; provided that no Indemnitee will have any right to indemnification for any of the foregoing to the extent resulting from (x) such Indemnitee’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, (y) a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Credit Party against such Indemnitee for a breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or (z) a claim brought by one Lender against another Lender (in each case, solely in their respective capacities as a Lender hereunder and not as an arranger, bookrunner, the Administrative Agent, or the Swing Line Lender) so long as such claim does not involve, or result from, an action or inaction by the Borrower or any Related Party of the Borrower, in each case of the foregoing clauses (x), (y) and (z), as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  This Section 9.2(a) 

shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses arising from any non-Tax claim.
(b)Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, the Borrower shall not assert, and the Borrower agrees not to assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Advance or the use of the proceeds thereof.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, no Lender Party party hereto shall assert, and each Lender Party party hereto agrees not to assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Credit Party or any Affiliate thereof, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Advance or the use of the proceeds thereof.  For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that a claim for indemnity under Section 9.2(a) above, to the extent covered thereby, is a claim of direct or actual damages.  No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients 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 other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  
(c)Survival.  Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement hereunder, the agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Commitments, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.
(d)Payments. All payments required to be made under this Section 9.2 shall, unless otherwise set forth above, be made within 10 days of demand from the Administrative Agent or such other Indemnitee.
(e)Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 9.1 or 9.2 to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Swing Line Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Swing Line Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Total Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender); provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Swing Line Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Swing Line Lender in connection with such capacity.  
Section 9.3    Waivers and Amendments.  No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document (other than the Fee Letters or any AutoBorrow Agreement), nor consent to any departure by the Borrower or any Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Majority Lenders and the Borrower or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Majority Lenders, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that (subject to Section 2.16 with respect to any Defaulting Lender):
(a)    no amendment, waiver, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Borrower and all the Revolving Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby, do any of the following: (i)  reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Revolving Advances, or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Credit Document to the Revolving Lenders, or (ii) postpone or extend any date fixed for any

 payment of principal of, or interest on, the Revolving Advances, including the Revolving Maturity Date, or for any payment of any fees or other amounts payable hereunder to the Revolving Lenders, 
(b)    no amendment, waiver, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Borrower and all the Term Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby, do any of the following: (i)  reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Term Advances, or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Credit Document to the Term Lenders, or (ii) postpone or extend any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Term Advances, including the Term Maturity Date, or for any payment of any fees or other amounts payable hereunder to the Term Lenders;
(c)    no amendment, waiver, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Lenders and the Borrower, do any of the following:  (i) waive any of the conditions specified in Section 3.1, (ii)  amend Section 2.12(e), Section 7.6, this Section 9.3 or any other provision in any Credit Document which expressly requires the consent of, or action or waiver by, all of the Lenders, (iii) release all or substantially all of the value of the Subsidiary Guaranties except as permitted under Section 5.6; (iv) amend the definition of “Majority Lenders”, “Majority Revolving Lenders” or “Majority Term Lenders”; or (v) change the percentage of Lenders which shall be required for the Lenders to take any action hereunder or under any other Credit Document;
(d)    no amendment, waiver, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Majority Revolving Lenders, the Majority Lenders and the Borrower, adversely affect the interests, rights or obligations of the Revolving Lenders in a manner substantially different from the effect of such amendment, waiver or consent on the Term Lenders, it being understood that, if the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures is less than the aggregate Revolving Commitments, then any amendment, waiver or consent that has the effect of curing or waiving any Default shall require the consent of the Majority Revolving Lenders in addition to all other consents required hereunder;
(e)    no amendment, waiver, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Majority Term Lenders, the Majority Lenders and the Borrower adversely affect the interests, rights or obligations of the Term Lenders in a manner substantially different from the effect of such amendment, waiver or consent on the Revolving Lenders, it being understood that, so long as any Term Commitments remain in effect and unfunded, any amendment, waiver or consent that has the effect of curing or waiving any Default shall require the consent of the Majority Term Lenders in addition to all other consents required hereunder;
(f)no Commitment of a Lender or any obligations of a Lender may be increased without such Lender’s written consent;
(g)no amendment, waiver, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, (i) increase the aggregate Revolving Commitments (except pursuant to Section 2.15) or the aggregate Term Commitments, or (ii) affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Credit Document;
(h)no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Swing Line Lender in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, (i) increase the Swing Line Sublimit Amount or (ii) affect the rights or duties of the Swing Line Lender under this Agreement or any other Credit Document; and
(i)the Subsidiary Guaranty may be supplemented (but not otherwise amended) as expressly provided therein.
Section 9.4    Severability.  In case one or more provisions of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable Legal Requirement, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein or therein shall not be affected or impaired thereby.
Section 9.5    Survival of Representations and Obligations.  All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document or made in writing by or on behalf of the Credit Parties in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, the making of the Advances and any investigation made by or on behalf of the 

Lenders, none of which investigations shall diminish any Lender’s right to rely on such representations and warranties.  All obligations of the Borrower provided for in Sections 2.10, 2.11, 2.13(c), 9.1 and 9.2 and all of the obligations of the Lenders in Section 8.4 shall survive any termination of this Agreement and repayment in full of the Obligations.
Section 9.6    Borrower Assignment.  Neither the Borrower nor any other Credit Party shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its duties under this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any interest in this Agreement or any other Credit Document without the prior written consent of each Lender.
Section 9.7    Lender Assignments and Participations.
(a)    Successors and Assigns Generally.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b)    Assignments by Lenders.  Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Advances at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i)Minimum Amounts.
(A)in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or the Advances at the time owing to it or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B)in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitment (which for this purpose includes Advances outstanding thereunder), or Term Commitment (which for this purpose includes Term Advances outstanding thereunder), or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the applicable Advances of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $15,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
(ii)Proportionate Amounts.  Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Advances or the Commitments assigned and, for the avoidance of doubt, a Lender may assign all or any portion of its rights and obligations between the Facilities on a non pro rata basis.
(iii)Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:
(A)the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any 

such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received written notice thereof;
(B)the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required (i) for assignments under the Revolving Facility to any Person that is not a Revolving Lender and (ii) for assignments under the Term Facility to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and
(C)the consent of the Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment by a Lender under the Revolving Facility to any Person that is not a Revolving Lender.
(iv)Assignment and Acceptance.  The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment.  The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
(v)No Assignment to Certain Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (B) a natural Person or (C) a Defaulting Lender.
(vi)Certain Additional Payments.  In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable Pro Rata Share of Advances 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, the Swing Line Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full Pro Rata Shares of all Advances and participations in Swing Line Advances in accordance with its applicable Pro Rata Shares.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Legal Requirement without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.11, 2.13, 9.1 and 9.2 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment and shall continue to be subject to its obligations under Section 2.13(e) and (h) for events and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided 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.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for 

purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section.
(c)    Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Advances owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  The Borrower hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent acting as its agent solely for the purpose set forth above in this clause (c), shall not subject the Administrative Agent to any fiduciary or other implied duties, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.
(d)    Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment or the Advances owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 8.4 with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).
Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that requires the approval of all affected Lenders in accordance with the terms of Section 9.3 that affects such Participant.  The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.11 and 2.13 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.13(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.13(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender and delivered to the Borrower as required under Section 2.13(g)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.14 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.11 or 2.13, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.  Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.14 with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by Legal Requirement, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 7.4 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.12(e) as though it were a Lender.  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 Advances 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.  The Borrower hereby agrees that each Lender acting as its agent solely for the purpose set forth above in this clause (d), shall not subject such Lender to any fiduciary or other implied duties, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.    
(e)    Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(f)    Information.  Any Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants), subject, however, to the provisions of Section 9.8.

Section 9.8    Confidentiality.  Each Lender Party agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Specified Information (as defined below) received by such Lender Party; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Lender Party from disclosing any such information (a) to any other Lender Party or any Affiliate of any Lender Party, or any officer, director, employee, agent, or advisor of any Lender Party or Affiliate of any Lender Party for purposes of administering, negotiating, considering, processing, implementing, syndicating, assigning, or evaluating the credit facilities provided herein and the transactions contemplated hereby (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Specified Information and instructed to keep such Specified Information confidential), (b) to the extent required by any Legal Requirement, (c) to the extent required by order of any court or administrative agency, (d) to the extent required to be disclosed by reason of any request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority having jurisdiction over such Lender Party (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (e) to the extent necessary in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (f) in connection with any litigation relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document to which such Lender Party is a party, (g) to any actual or proposed participant or assignee subject to the acknowledgment and acceptance by such proposed participant or assignee that such information is being disseminated on a confidential basis (on substantially the terms set forth in this paragraph or as is otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the assigning Lender, including as agreed in any confidential information memorandum or other marketing materials) in accordance with customary market standards for dissemination of such type of information, and (h) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the Facilities or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Facilities.  “Specified Information” means all written information concerning the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates that has been made available to the Lender Parties by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (excluding (i) any such information that is available to such Lender Party on a non-confidential basis but including any information from a source which, to such Lender Party’s actual knowledge, has been disclosed by such source in violation of a duty of confidentiality to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and (ii) any information that is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by any other Lender Party prohibited by this Agreement).  NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY 

CONTAINED HEREIN, nothing in this Agreement shall (i) restrict any Lender Party from providing information to any banking or other regulatory or governmental authorities having jurisdiction over such Lender Party, including the Federal Reserve Board and its supervisory staff; (ii) require or permit any Lender Party to disclose to any Credit Party that any information will be or was provided to the Federal Reserve Board or any of its supervisory staff; or (iii) require or permit any Lender Party to inform any Credit Party of a current or upcoming Federal Reserve Board examination or any nonpublic Federal Reserve Board supervisory initiative or action.
Section 9.8    Notices, Etc.  
(a)    Notices Generally.  Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone, facsimile or electronic mail (and except as provided in paragraph (b) below), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail or sent by facsimile as follows: (i) if to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Swing Line Lender, at the applicable address (or facsimile numbers) set forth on Schedule II, and (ii) if to a Lender, to it at its address (or facsimile number) set forth in its Administrative Questionnaire.  Notices sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices sent by facsimile shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient).  Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in paragraph (b) below, shall be effective as provided in said paragraph (b).
(b)    Electronic Communications.  
(i)    The Borrower and the Lenders agree 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, any of its Subsidiaries, or any other materials or matters relating to this Agreement 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 Syndtrak, 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) none of 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 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.  No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in connection with the Platform.  In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties have any liability to the Borrower or the other Credit Parties, any Lender Party or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s, any Credit Party’s or any Lender Party’s transmission of communications through the Platform.  
(ii)    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 othe

r 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 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.
(c)    Change of Address, Etc.  Any party hereto may change its address, e-mail address or facsimile number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto.  
Section 9.10    Usury Not Intended.  It is the intent of each Credit Party and each Lender in the execution and performance of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury laws, including conflicts of law concepts, governing the Advances of each Lender including such applicable Legal Requirements of the State of New York, if any, and the United States of America from time to time in effect.  In furtherance thereof, the Lenders and the Credit Parties stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in this Agreement or the other Credit Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, as consideration for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest at a rate in excess of the Maximum Rate and that for purposes of this Agreement “interest” shall include the aggregate of all charges which constitute interest under such Legal Requirements that are contracted for, charged or received under this Agreement; and in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, under any circumstances the aggregate amounts taken, reserved, charged, received or paid on the Advances, include amounts which by applicable Legal Requirement are deemed interest which would exceed the Maximum Rate, then such excess shall be deemed to be a mistake and each Lender receiving same shall credit the same on the principal of its Advances (or if such Advances shall have been paid in full, refund said excess to the Borrower).  In the event that the maturity of the Advances are accelerated by reason of any election of the holder thereof resulting from any Event of Default under this Agreement or otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest may never include more than the Maximum Rate, and excess interest, if any, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited on the applicable Advances (or, if the applicable Advances shall have been paid in full, refunded to the Borrower of such interest).  In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingencies exceeds the Maximum Rate, the Credit Parties and the Lenders shall to the maximum extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirement amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of the Advances all amounts considered to be interest under applicable Legal Requirement at any time contracted for, charged, received or reserved in connection with the Obligations.  The provisions of this Section shall control over all other provisions of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents which may be in apparent conflict herewith.
Section 9.11    Usury Recapture.  In the event the rate of interest chargeable under this Agreement at any time is greater than the Maximum Rate, the unpaid principal amount of the Advances shall bear interest at the Maximum Rate until the total amount of interest paid or accrued on the Advances equals the amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued on the Advances if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In the event the Lenders ever receive, collect or apply as interest any sum in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess amount shall, to the extent permitted by Legal Requirement, be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Advances, and if no such principal is then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to the Borrower.
Section 9.12    Payments Set Aside.  To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to any Lender Party, or any Lender Party exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by any Lender Party in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made 

or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender Party severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate in effect from time to time, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment.  The obligations of the Lenders and the Swing Line Lender under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
Section 9.13    Governing Law.  This Agreement and the other Credit Documents (unless otherwise expressly provided therein) shall be deemed a contract under, and shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of laws principles (other than Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York).  
Section 9.14    Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Venue.  The parties hereto hereby agree that any suit or proceeding arising in respect of this Agreement, or any of the matters contemplated hereby or thereby will be tried exclusively in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York or, if such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, in any state court located in the City and County of New York, and the parties hereto hereby agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of, and venue in, such court.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable law.  The parties hereto hereby agree that service of any process, summons, notice or document by registered mail addressed to the applicable parties will be effective service of process against such party for any action or proceeding relating to any such dispute.  Nothing in this Section shall affect the rights of any Lender to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.  Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in this Section 9.14.  Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York shall apply to this Agreement and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, the defense of any inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
Section 9.15    Electronic Execution of Assignments.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Legal Requirement, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
Section 9.16    Execution in Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic method of transmission (e.g., in .pdf format) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed original counterpart of this Agreement.
Section 9.17    Waiver of Jury.  THE BORROWER, THE LENDERS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE BEEN REPRESENTED BY AND HAVE CONSULTED WITH COUNSEL OF THEIR CHOICE, AND HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, INTENTIONALLY, AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

Section 9.18    USA PATRIOT Act.  Each Lender that is subject to the PATRIOT Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Credit Party that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Credit Party, which information includes the name and address of such Credit Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Credit Party in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.
Section 9.19    Judgment Currency.  If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from the Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with usual and customary banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at any of the Administrative Agent’s offices in the United States of America on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.  The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender Party hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency.  If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, the Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 2.12(e), each Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to promptly remit such excess to the Borrower. 
Section 9.20    No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.  In connection with all aspects of any transaction contemplated herein, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (i) this Agreement and any transaction contemplated herein constitute an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Borrower and its affiliates, on the one hand, and the Lender Parties, on the other hand, and the Borrower is capable of evaluating and understanding and understand and accept the terms, risks and conditions of this Agreement and such transaction, (ii) each Lender Party is and has been acting solely as a principal and not as a financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s affiliates, equityholders, directors, officers, employees, creditors or any other party, (iii) no Lender Party has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in the Borrower’s or any Borrower’s affiliate’s favor with respect to this Agreement or transaction contemplated herein or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender Party has advised or is currently advising the Borrower or such affiliate on other matters) and no Lender Party has any obligation to the Borrower or any affiliate of the Borrower with respect to this Agreement or any transaction contemplated herein except those obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, (iv) any of the Lender Parties may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from the Borrower’s and those of any Affiliate of the Borrower and no Lender Party shall have any obligation to disclose any of such interests, and (v) no Lender Party has provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to this Agreement or any transaction contemplated herein and the Borrower has consulted with its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent the Borrower has deemed appropriate.  The Borrower hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Borrower may have against any Lender Party with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty.
Section 9.21    Integration.  THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND SUPERSEDE 

ALL PRIOR UNDERSTANDINGS AND AGREEMENTS, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, RELATING TO THE TRANSACTIONS PROVIDED FOR HEREIN AND THEREIN.  ADDITIONALLY, THIS AGREEMENT AND THE CREDIT DOCUMENTS MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.
In executing this agreement, the Borrower hereby warrants and represents it is not relying on any statement or representation other than those in this agreement and is relying upon its own judgment and advice of its attorneys.

SCHEDULE I
Pricing Schedule
The Applicable Margin with respect to Commitment Fees and Advances shall be determined in accordance with the following Table A or Table B, as applicable, and in each case, (a) prior to the Trigger Date (as defined below), based on the Leverage Ratio reflected in the Compliance Certificate delivered in connection with the financial statements or the pro forma Leverage Ratio reflected in the Pro Forma Compliance Certificate, in any case, which is most recently delivered pursuant to Section 5.2 and (b) from and after the Trigger Date, based on the Borrower’s Debt Rating (as defined below).  For the avoidance of doubt, the Applicable Margin in effect on the Trigger Date shall be based on the Borrower’s Debt Rating in effect on such date.   Adjustments, if any, to the Applicable Margin (i) prior to the Trigger Date, shall be effective on the date the Administrative Agent receives the applicable financial statements and corresponding Compliance Certificate or Pro Forma Compliance Certificate as required by the terms of this Agreement and (ii) from and after the Trigger Date, shall be effective on the date of a publicly announced change in a Debt Rating and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of such change.  

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall be deemed to be at Level I under each of Table A and Table B until the earliest of (x) delivery of its unaudited financial statements and corresponding Compliance Certificate for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2014, (y) the Trigger Date and (z) the delivery of the Pro Forma Compliance Certificate.  If the Trigger Date has not occurred and the Borrower fails to deliver the Pro Forma Compliance Certificate or the financial statements and corresponding Compliance Certificate to the Administrative Agent at the time required pursuant to Section 5.2, then effective as of the date such Pro Forma Compliance Certificate or financial statements and Compliance Certificate were required to the delivered pursuant to Section 5.2, the Applicable Margin with respect to Commitment Fees and Advances shall be determined at Level IV under each of Table A and Table B, and shall remain at such levels until the date such Pro Forma Compliance Certificate or financial statements and corresponding Compliance Certificate are so delivered by the Borrower.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the determination of the Applicable Margin for any period prior to the Trigger Date shall also be subject to the provisions of Section 2.8(d).

“Debt Rating” means, as of any date of determination, the rating as determined by either S&P or Moody’s (collectively, the “Debt Ratings”) of the Borrower’s senior unsecured debt; provided that (a) if a Debt Rating is issued by each of the foregoing rating agencies, then the higher of such Debt Ratings shall apply (with the Debt Rating for Level I being the highest and the Debt Rating for Level IV being the lowest), unless there is a split in Debt Ratings of more than one Level, in which case the Level immediately below the higher of such Debt Ratings shall be used; (b) if either Moody’s or S&P (but not both) shall have in effect a Debt Rating, then the Level shall be determined by the Debt Rating issued by either Moody’s or S&P, as the case may be; (c) if neither Moody’s nor S&P shall have in effect a Debt Rating (other than by reason of the circumstances referred to in clause (d) of this definition), then the Level shall be deemed to be Level IV; and (d) if the rating system of Moody’s or S&P shall change, or if both such rating agencies shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith to amend the definition of “Applicable Margin” to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings from such rating agencies and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable Margin shall be determined by reference to the Level most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation. 

“Trigger Date” means the first date on or prior to which each of the following shall have occurred: (a) the senior, unsecured debt of the Borrower is rated by Moody’s and S&P, and (b) the Administrative Agent has received written notice from the Borrower that it elects to apply the Debt Rating for purposes of the Applicable Margin.
