Executive remains an employee of the Company on each anniversary
date of his employment.

reasonable business expenses incurred or paid by the Executive in the performance of his duties and

time.

5. Termination of Employment and Severance Benefits. Notwithstanding the provisions
of Section 2 hereof, the Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate prior to the expiration
of the term hereof under the following circumstances:

(a) Retirement or Death. In the event of the Executive’s retirement or death during
the term hereof, the Executive’s employment hereunder shall immediately and automatically
terminate. In the event of the Executive’s death during the term hereof, the Company shall pay to
the Executive’s designated beneficiary or, if no beneficiary has been designated by the Executive,
to his estate, any earned and unpaid Base Salary and any incentive or bonus compensation that is
earned but unpaid, pro-rated through the date of his death.

	 	(b)	 	Disability.

(i) The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder, upon notice to the
Executive, in the event that the Executive becomes disabled during his employment hereunder through
any illness, injury, accident or condition of either a physical or psychological nature and, as a
result, is unable to perform substantially all of his duties and responsibilities hereunder for a
period of six (6) consecutive months, subject to any applicable provisions of the Americans with
Disabilities Act.

(ii) The Board may designate another employee to act in the Executive’s place during any
period of the Executive’s disability. Notwithstanding any such designation, the Executive shall
continue to receive the Base Salary and other benefits in accordance with Section 4 to the extent
provided by the then-current terms of the applicable benefit plans, until the termination of his
employment.

(iii) If any question shall arise as to whether during any period the Executive is disabled
through any illness, injury, accident or condition of either a physical or psychological nature so
as to be unable to perform substantially all of his duties and responsibilities hereunder, the
Executive may, and at the request of the Company shall, submit to a medical examination by a
physician selected by the mutual agreement of the Company and the Executive or his duly appointed
guardian, if any, to determine whether the Executive is so disabled and such determination shall
for the purposes of this Agreement be conclusive of the issue. In the event that the Company and
the Executive are unable to agree upon the selection of the physician to conduct such medical
examination, the Company and the Executive shall each select a physician and the two physicians
shall select a third physician, and the three physicians so selected shall conduct the medical
examination; the determination of the two physicians who agree on whether the Executive is disabled
shall for the purposes of this Agreement be conclusive of the issue. If the question of the
Executive’s disability shall arise and the Executive shall fail to submit to such medical
examination, the Company’s determination of the issue shall be binding on the Executive.

(c) By the Company for Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment
hereunder for cause at any time upon notice to the Executive setting forth in reasonable detail the
nature of such cause. The following, as determined by the Board in its reasonable judgment, shall
constitute cause for termination:

(i) The Executive’s falsification of the accounts of the Company, embezzlement of funds of the
Company or other fraud with respect to the Company or any of its Affiliates; or

(ii) Conviction of, or a plea of nolo contendre to, a felony; or

(iii) Conduct engaged in by the Executive the continuation of which is not in the best
interests of the Company and which is or if continued would be materially harmful to the business,
interests of reputation of the Company or any of its Affiliates and as to which the Board of
Directors has given the Executive notice in writing, specifying the exact conduct deemed materially
harmful, and providing at a minimum a thirty (30) day opportunity to cure. Such written notice
shall be presented to the Executive in person at a duly called and scheduled meeting of the Board
of Directors.

Upon the giving of notice of termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder for cause, the
Company shall have no further obligation or liability to the Executive, other than the payment of
Base Salary earned and unpaid at the date of termination, and the contribution by the Company to
the cost of the Executive’s participation (subject to any required employee contribution by the
Executive under the terms of the applicable plans) in the Company’s group medical and dental
insurance plans as the same are in effect from time to time for so long as the Executive is
entitled to continue such participation under applicable law and plan terms.

(d) By the Company other than for Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s
employment hereunder other than for cause at any time upon notice to the Executive. In the event
of such termination, then until the conclusion of a period equal to the Severance Period (defined
below), the Company shall continue to pay the Executive the Base Salary at the rate in effect on
the date of termination. If the date of termination is on or after July 1st of any
year, then the Executive shall also be entitled to receive a prorated portion of his annual
incentive compensation, provided that at the time of termination the Company is meeting or
exceeding the goals previously established under the annual incentive plan.

For the purposes of this Agreement, the term, the “Severance Period” shall mean twelve (12) months
from the date that the Executive’s termination is effective, unless prior to such termination
either of the following “Triggering Events” have occurred: (i) the Executive has been promoted to
the office of President of the Company or (ii) the Executive has been passed over for promotion and
has not succeeded Stephen L. Day as President of the Company. If either Triggering Event occurs,
then length of the Severance Period shall be increased to twenty-four (24) months from the date
that the Executive’s termination is effective.

(e) By the Executive for Good Reason. The Executive may terminate his employment
hereunder for Good Reason, upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Company setting forth in reasonable
detail the nature of such Good Reason. The following shall constitute (“Good Reason” for
termination by the Executive):

(i) Failure of the Company to continue the Executive in the position of Executive Vice
President;

(ii) Breach by the Company of Section 3(d) hereof or material diminution in the nature or
scope of the Executive’s responsibilities, duties or authority; or

(iii) Any other material breach of this Agreement by the Company and, if such breach may be
cured, the Company’s failure to do so within ten (10) days after written notice thereof.

In the event of termination in accordance with this Section 5(e), then until the conclusion of the
Severance Period, the Company shall continue to pay the Executive the Base Salary at the rate in
effect on the date of termination. If the date of termination is on or after July 1st
of any year, then the Executive shall also be entitled to receive a prorated portion of his annual
incentive compensation, provided that at the time of termination the Company is meeting or
exceeding the goals previously established under the annual incentive plan.

(f) By the Executive Other than for Good Reason. The Executive may terminate his
employment hereunder at any time upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Company. In the event of
termination of employment by the Executive pursuant to this Section 5(f), the Board may elect to
waive the period of notice, or any portion thereof, and, if the Board so elects, the Company will
pay the Executive his Base Salary for the notice period (or for any remaining portion of the
period), and the Company shall contribute to the cost of the Executive’s participation (subject to
any required employee contribution by the Executive under the terms of the applicable plans) in the
Company’s group medical and dental insurance plans as the same are in effect from time to time for
so long as the Executive is entitled to continue such participation under applicable law and plan
terms. Except as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with successor employment, the
Executive will keep confidential the termination of his employment pursuant to this Section 5(f)
until the earlier of the Company’s announcement thereof or the expiration of a period of forty-five
(45) days from the Executive’s notice hereunder.

	 	(g)	 	Upon a Change of Control.

(i) If a Change of Control occurs and within two years following such Change of Control the
Company terminates the Executive’s employment other than for Cause or the Executive terminates his
employment for Good Reason, then, in lieu of any payments to or on behalf of the Executive under
Section 5(d) or 5(e) hereof, the Company shall pay the Executive, within ten business days of such
termination, in a lump sum and amount equal to his Base Salary for the Severance Period.

(ii) A Change of Control shall be deemed to take place if at some time after the initial
public offering of the Company’s common shares (A) any Person or “group” (within the meaning of
Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), in any transaction or series
of related transactions, becomes a beneficial owner (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 as
promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), directly or indirectly, of securities
representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the total number of votes that may be cast for the
election of directors of the Company; (B) any merger or consolidation involving the Company (other
than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company

remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) at
least 51% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving
entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation); (C) the sale , lease,
conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets as an entirety
or substantially as an entirety to any Person or group (as defined above) acting in concert, other

complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of
all or substantially all the Company’s assets.

(h) The Company shall promptly reimburse the Executive for the

amount of all reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Executive in seeking to
obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided the Executive under this Section 5.

(i) Post-Agreement Employment. In the event the Executive remains in the employ of
the Company or any of its Affiliates following termination of this Agreement, by the expiration of
the term hereof or otherwise, then such employment shall be at will.

6. Effect of Termination. The provisions of this Section 6 shall apply to termination
due to the expiration of the term hereof pursuant to Section 5 or otherwise.

(a) The Company may, as a condition of fulfilling its obligations to the Executive under
Section 5, require the Executive to execute and deliver a release to the effect that performance by
the Company under this Agreement shall constitute full settlement of any claim that the Executive
might otherwise assert against the Company, its Affiliates or any of their shareholders, directors,
officers, employees or agents on account of such termination.

(b) Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, benefits shall terminate pursuant to the
terms of the applicable benefit plans based on the date of termination of the Executive’s
employment without regard to any continuation of Base Salary or other payment to the Executive
following such date of termination.

(c) Provisions of this Agreement shall survive any termination if so provided herein or if
necessary or desirable fully to accomplish the purposes of such provision, including without
limitation the obligations of the Executive under Sections 7 and 8 hereof and the Company’s
obligations to make severance payments to the Executive as described above. The obligation of the
Company to make payments to or on behalf of the Executive under Sections 5(d), 5(e) or 5(g) hereof
is expressly conditioned upon the Executive’s continued full performance of his obligations under
Sections 7 and 8 hereof. The Executive recognizes that, except as expressly provided in sections
5(d), 5(e) or 5 (g), no compensation is earned after termination of employment.

7. Confidential Information.

	 	(a)	 	The Executive acknowledges that the Company and its Affiliates

continually develop Confidential Information, that the Executive may develop Confidential
Information for the Company or its Affiliates and that the Executive may learn of Confidential
Information during the course of employment. The Executive will comply with the policies and
procedures of the Company and its Affiliates for protecting Confidential Information and shall
never disclose to any Person (except as required by applicable law or for the proper performance of
his duties and responsibilities to the Company and its Affiliates), or use for his own benefit or
gain, any Confidential Information obtained by the Executive incident to his employment or other
association with the Company or any of its Affiliates. The Executive understands that this
restriction shall continue to apply after his employment terminates, regardless of the reason for
such termination.

(b) All documents, records, tapes and other media of every kind and description relating to
the business, present or otherwise, of the Company or its Affiliates and any copies, in whole or in
part, thereof (the “Documents”), whether or not prepared by the Executive, shall be the sole and
exclusive property of the Company and its Affiliates. The Executive shall safeguard all Documents
and shall surrender to the Company at the time his employment terminates, or at such earlier time
or times as the Board or its designee may specify, all Documents then in the Executive’s possession
or control.

8. Restricted Activities. In consideration of the foregoing, the Executive agrees
that some restrictions on his activities during and after his employment are necessary to protect
the goodwill, Confidential Information and other legitimate interests of the Company and its
Affiliates.

(a) While the Executive is employed by the Company and until the conclusion of a period equal
to twenty-four (24) months from the date the Executive’s employment terminates, (the
“Non-Competition Period”), the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, whether as
owner, partner, investor, consultant, agent, employee, co-venturer or otherwise, compete with the
Company or any of its Affiliates within the United States of America or undertake any planning for
any business competitive with the Company or any of its Affiliates in the retail sale of equestrian
products. At present, the business of the Company and its Affiliates involves the retail store,
retail catalog and Internet retail sale of equestrian products. Accordingly, the Executive agrees
not to engage in any manner in any activity that is competitive (i) with the business of the
Company or any of its Affiliates as conducted during the Executive’s employment in the retail
store, retail catalog or Internet retail sale of equestrian products; or (ii) such other business
of the Company and its Affiliates as to which Executive will have devoted any material time or
attention during his employment..

(b) The Executive agrees that, during his employment with the Company, will not undertake any
outside activity, whether or not competitive with the business of the Company or its Affiliates,
that could reasonably give rise to a conflict of interest or otherwise interfere with his duties
and obligation to the Company or any of its Affiliates.

(c) The Executive further agrees that while he is employed by the Company and during the
Non-Competition Period, the Executive will not hire or attempt to hire any employee of the Company
or any of its Affiliates, assist in such hiring by any Person, encourage any such employee to
terminate his or her relationship with the Company or any of its Affiliates, or solicit or
encourage any customer or vendor of the Company or any of its Affiliates to terminate its
relationship with them.

(d) The Executive shall specifically not be able to shorten the Non-Competition Period
by waiving his right to receive payments under paragraph 5(d) or 5(e).

9. Notification Requirement. Until the conclusion of the Non-Competition Period, the
Executive shall give notice to the Company of each new business activity he plans to undertake, at
least thirty (30) days prior to beginning any such activity; provided, however, that if
circumstances do not permit the Executive to provide 30 days prior notice, then the Executive
agrees to provide notice that is reasonable under such circumstances. Such notice shall state the
name and address of the Person for whom such activity is undertaken and the nature of the
Executive’s business relationship(s) and position(s) with such Person. Subject to reasonable
confidentiality requirements of a successor employer, the Executive shall provide the Company with
such other pertinent information concerning such business activity as the Company may reasonably
request in order to determine the Executive’s continued compliance with his obligations under
Sections 7 and 8 hereof.

10. Enforcement of Covenants. The Executive acknowledges that he has carefully read
and considered all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the restraints imposed
upon him pursuant to Sections 7 and 8 hereof. The Executive agrees that said restraints are
necessary for the reasonable and proper protection of the Company and its Affiliates and that each
of the restraints is reasonable in respect to subject matter, length of time and geographic area.
The Executive further acknowledges that, were he to breach any of the covenants contained in
Sections 7 or 8 hereof, the damage to the Company would be irreparable. The Executive therefore
agrees that the Company, in addition to any other remedies available to it, shall be entitled to
preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against any breach or threatened breach by the
Executive of any of said covenants, without having to post bond. The parties further agree that,
in the event that any provision of Sections 7 or 8 hereof shall be determined by any court of
competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its being extended over too great a time,
too large a geographic area or too great a range of activities, such provision shall be deemed to
be modified to permit its enforcement to the maximum extent permitted by law.

11. Definitions. Words or phrases which are initially capitalized or are within
quotation marks shall have the meanings provided in this Section 11 and as provided elsewhere
herein. For purposes of this Agreement, the following definitions apply:

(a) “Affiliates” means all persons and entities directly or indirectly controlling,
controlled by or under common control with the Company, within the meaning of Rule 405 promulgated
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Affiliates that is not generally known by others with whom they compete or do business, or with
whom they plan to compete or do business and any and all information, publicly known in whole or in

against them. Confidential Information includes without limitation non-public information relating
to (i) the development, research, testing, manufacturing, marketing and financial activities of the
Company, (ii) the Data Base Marketing Process and all information contained in the Company’s data
base, (iii) the costs, sources of supply, financial performance and strategic plans of the Company
and its Affiliates, (iv) the identity and special needs of the customers of the Company and its
Affiliates, and (v) the people and organizations with whom the Company and its Affiliates have

it would not be disclosed.

13. Assignment. Neither the Company nor the Executive may make any assignment of this
Agreement or any interest herein, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written
consent of the other; provided, however, that the Company may assign its rights and obligations
under this Agreement without the consent of the Executive in the event that the Company shall
hereafter effect a reorganization, consolidate with, or merge into, any other Person or transfer
all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other Person, subject in such case to
the provisions of Section 5(g) hereof. The Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding
upon the Company and the Executive, their respective successors, executors, administrators, heirs
and permitted assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement shall be
binding upon any successor to the business of the Company as a result of a Change-of-Control
transaction described in Section 5(g)(ii) hereof.

14. Severability. If any portion or provision of this Agreement shall to any extent
be declared illegal or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remainder of
this Agreement, or the application of such portion or provision in circumstances other than those
as to which it is so declared illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each
portion and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent
permitted by law.

15. Waiver. No waiver of any provisions hereof shall be effective unless made in
writing and signed by the waiving party. The failure of either party to require the performance of
any term or obligation of this Agreement, or the waiver by either party of any breach of this
Agreement, shall not prevent any subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a
waiver of any subsequent breach.

16. Notices. Any and all notices, requests, demands and other communications provided
for by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be sent by telecopy or sent postage prepaid by
certified mail (return receipt requested) or reputable courier service and shall be deemed given

parties and supersedes all prior communications, agreements and understandings, written or oral,
with respect to the terms and conditions of the Executive’s employment.

18. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument
signed by the Executive and by an expressly authorized representative of the Company.

19. Headings. The headings and captions in this Agreement are for convenience only
and in no way define or describe the scope or content of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 1.02.  Accounting Terms; GAAP.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in conformity with GAAP as in effect from time to time; provided that if the Borrower, by notice to the Administrative Agent, shall request an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the date hereof in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders, by notice to the Borrower, shall request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith; provided, further that any obligations relating to a lease that was accounted for by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP as an operating lease as of the Closing Date and any operating lease entered into after the Closing Date by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that would under GAAP as in effect on the Closing Date have been accounted for as an operating lease shall be accounted for as obligations relating to an operating lease and not as Capital Lease Obligations.
Section 1.03.  Pro Forma Calculations.  All pro forma computations required to be made hereunder giving effect to any transaction shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (and, in the case of any pro forma computations made hereunder to determine whether such transaction is permitted to be consummated hereunder, to any other such transaction consummated since the first day of the period covered by any component of such pro forma computation and on or prior to the date of such computation) as if such transaction had occurred on the first day of the period of four consecutive Fiscal Quarters ending with the most recent Fiscal Quarter for which financial statements shall have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or 5.01(b) (or, prior to the delivery of any such financial statements, as of December 31, 2012), and, to the extent applicable, to the historical earnings and cash flows associated with the assets acquired or disposed of and any related incurrence or reduction of Indebtedness, all in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act.
Section 1.04.  Interpretation.  Any of the terms defined herein may, unless the context otherwise requires, be used in the singular or the plural, depending on the reference. References herein to any Article, Section, Schedule or Exhibit shall be to an Article or a Section of, or a Schedule or an Exhibit to, this Agreement, unless otherwise specifically provided.

In the event that the Borrower or any other Credit Party shall at any time issue or have outstanding any Permitted Subordinated Indebtedness, the Borrower shall take or cause such other Credit Party to take all such actions as shall be necessary to cause the Obligations to constitute senior indebtedness (however denominated) in respect of such Permitted Subordinated Indebtedness and to enable the Lenders to have and exercise any payment blockage or other remedies available or potentially available to holders of senior indebtedness under the terms of such Permitted Subordinated Indebtedness.  Without limiting the foregoing, the Obligations are hereby designated as “senior indebtedness” and as “designated senior indebtedness” under and in respect of any indenture or other agreement or instrument under which any such Permitted Subordinated Indebtedness is outstanding and are further given all such other designations as shall be required under the terms of any such Permitted Subordinated Indebtedness in order that the Lenders may have and exercise any payment blockage or other remedies available or potentially available to holders of senior indebtedness under the terms of such Permitted Subordinated Indebtedness.
ARTICLE 2 
LOANS
Section 2.01.  Loans.  (a) Commitments.  During the Commitment Period, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender agrees to make Loans to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (i) such Lender’s Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Commitment or (ii) the aggregate Exposures exceeding the aggregate Commitments.  Amounts repaid or prepaid in respect of the Loans may, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, be reborrowed during the Commitment Period.  

26

(b)    Borrowing Mechanics.  (i) Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Type made by the Lenders proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares.  At the time each Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount; provided that a Base Rate Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the aggregate Commitments in effect at such time.
(ii)    To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a fully completed and executed Funding Notice (A) in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) three Business Days before the proposed Credit Date or (B) in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing, not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the proposed Credit Date.  In lieu of delivering a Funding Notice, the Borrower may give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice by the required time of any proposed Borrowing; provided that such telephonic notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing by delivery of a fully completed and executed Funding Notice to the Administrative Agent on or before the close of business on the date that such telephonic notice is given.  In the event of any discrepancy between the telephonic notice and the written Funding Notice, the written Funding Notice shall govern.  Promptly upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a Funding Notice in accordance with this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.
(iii)    Each Lender shall make the principal amount of each Loan required to be made by it hereunder on any Credit Date available to the Administrative Agent not later than (i) 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Credit Date if the Funding Notice for the applicable Borrowing is delivered less than one Business Day prior to such Credit Date and (ii) 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Credit Date if the Funding Notice for the applicable Borrowing is delivered at least one Business Day prior to the Credit Date, in each case by wire transfer of same day funds in Dollars to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders.  The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly remitting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower specified by the Borrower in the Funding Notice.
Section 2.02.  Pro Rata Shares; Availability of Funds.  (a)  Pro Rata Shares.  All Loans on the occasion of any Borrowing shall be made by the Lenders proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares, it being understood that (i) no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder and (ii) no Commitment of any Lender shall be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder.

27

(b)    Availability of Funds.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by a Lender prior to the applicable Credit Date that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Loan requested on such Credit Date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such Credit Date and may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount on such Credit Date.  In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made the amount of such Lender’s Loan requested on such Credit Date available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, (A) at any time prior to the third Business Day following the date such amount is made available to the Borrower, the customary rate set by the Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among banks and (B) thereafter, the Base Rate or (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable hereunder to Base Rate Loans.  If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the applicable Borrowing.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.
Section 2.03.  Use of Proceeds.  The Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Loans for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, to finance capital expenditures arising from the development of data center facilities of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries, acquisitions and repurchases of Equity Interests and Indebtedness of the Borrower.  No portion of the proceeds of any Loan will be used in any manner that entails a violation of Regulation U or X of the Board of Governors.
Section 2.04.  Evidence of Debt; Register; Notes.  (a) Lender’s Evidence of Debt.  Each Lender shall maintain records evidencing the Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Lender, including the principal amount of the Loans made by such Lender and each repayment and prepayment in respect thereof.  Such records maintained by any Lender shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower, absent manifest error; provided that the failure to maintain any such records, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to pay any amounts due hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided further that, in the event of any inconsistency between the records maintained by any Lender and the records maintained by the Administrative Agent, the records of the Administrative Agent shall govern.
(b)    Register.  The Administrative Agent shall maintain at one of its offices records of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time (the 

28

“Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest error.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender (with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Commitment or Loans) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as the Borrower’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 2.04 and agrees that, to the extent the Administrative Agent serves in such capacity, the Administrative Agent and its Related Parties shall constitute “Indemnitees”.
(c)    Notes.  Upon request of any Lender that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns), which shall be in a form approved by the Administrative Agent.  Each Lender agrees that delivery of any such promissory notes shall not be a condition precedent to the obligations of such Lender to make a Loan on any Credit Date.
Section 2.05.  Interest on Loans.  (a)  Subject to Section 2.07, each Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof as follows:
(i)    in the case of a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin and 
(ii)    in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Loan, at the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Margin.
The applicable Base Rate or Adjusted Eurodollar Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto, absent manifest error.
(b)    The basis for determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan, and the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, shall be selected by the Borrower pursuant to the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice delivered in accordance herewith; provided that there shall be no more than 25 Eurodollar Rate Borrowings outstanding at any time.  In the event the Borrower fails to specify in the applicable Funding Notice the Type of the requested Borrowing, then the requested Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Borrowing.  In the event the Borrower fails to deliver in accordance with Section 2.06 a Conversion/Continuation Notice with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted into a Base Rate Borrowing.  In the event the Borrower requests the making of, or the conversion to or continuation of, any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing but fails to specify in the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice the Interest Period to be applicable thereto, the Borrower shall be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.

29

(c)    Interest on Loans shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be computed (i) in the case of Base Rate Loans, on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and (ii) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues.  In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or the most recent Interest Payment Date with respect to such Loan or, with respect to a Eurodollar Rate Loan being converted to a Base Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Eurodollar Rate Loan to such Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such Eurodollar Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall accrue on such Loan.
(d)    Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable to such Loan and on the Commitment Termination Date; provided that (i) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of a Base Rate Loan prior to the end of the Commitment Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (ii) in the event of any conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.
Section 2.06.  Conversion/Continuation.  (a)  Subject to Sections 2.05 and 2.14, the Borrower shall have the option:
(i)    to convert at any time all or any part of any Borrowing from one Type to the other Type; or
(ii)    to continue, at the end of the Interest Period applicable to any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, all or any part of such Borrowing as a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing and to elect an Interest Period therefor;
provided, in each case, that at the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000.
In the event any Borrowing shall have been converted or continued in accordance with this Section 2.06 in part, such conversion or continuation shall be allocated ratably, in accordance with the Pro Rata Shares, among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each part of such Borrowing resulting from such conversion or continuation shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

30

(b)    To exercise its option pursuant to this Section 2.06, the Borrower shall deliver a fully completed and executed Conversion/Continuation Notice to the Administrative Agent no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) no later than (i) on the proposed conversion date, in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Borrowing, or (ii) three Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date, in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing.  In lieu of delivering a Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Borrower may give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice by the required time of any proposed conversion/continuation; provided that such telephonic notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing by delivery of a fully completed and executed Conversion/Continuation Notice to the Administrative Agent on or before the close of business on the date that such telephonic notice is given.  In the event of any discrepancy between the telephonic notice and the written Conversion/Continuation Notice, the written Continuation/Conversion Notice shall govern.  A Conversion/Continuation Notice for conversion to, or continuation of, any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing shall be irrevocable on and after the Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to the Interest Period requested, or deemed requested, for such Borrowing, and the Borrower shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith.
(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if an Event of Default under clause (a), (e) or (f) of Article 7 or, at the request of the Requisite Lenders, any other Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, then no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing.
Section 2.07.  Default Interest.  If an Event of Default under clause (a), (e) or (f) of Article 7 or, at the request of the Requisite Lenders, any other Event of Default shall have occurred, then, from and after the date of the occurrence thereof and for so long as such Event of Default is continuing, the principal amount of all Loans outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all interest payments thereon and all fees and other amounts owing hereunder shall bear interest (including post petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable bankruptcy laws), payable on demand, (a) in the case of the outstanding principal of any Loan, at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise applicable hereunder to such Loan and (b) in all other cases, at a rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed) that is 1% per annum in excess of the interest rate that would be applicable hereunder to a Base Rate Loan.  Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.07 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.
Section 2.08.  Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at a rate equal to .10% per annum on the daily unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender during the Commitment Period.  All commitment fees shall be calculated on the basis 

31

of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed.  Accrued commitment fees shall be payable (a) quarterly in arrears during the Commitment Period, on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, (b) on the Commitment Termination Date and (c) in the case of any commitment fees accrued for the account of any Lender that shall have exercised its right referred to in Section 2.11(b), on the date the Commitment of such Lender terminates in accordance with such Section.
Section 2.09.  Extension, Termination and Reduction of Commitments.  (a)  Unless previously terminated, (i) the Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Maturity Date and (ii) the Commitment of each Lender that shall have exercised its right referred to in Section 2.11(b) shall automatically terminate as provided in such Section.
(b)    The Borrower may, upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed by delivery of written notice) thereof to the Administrative Agent, at any time terminate in whole or from time to time permanently reduce in part, without premium or penalty, the Commitments; provided that (i) any such partial reduction of the Commitments shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance herewith, the aggregate Exposures would exceed the aggregate Commitments.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the effective date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction; provided that a notice of termination or reduction of the Commitments may state that such notice is conditioned on the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.  Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the details thereof.  Any partial reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this paragraph shall reduce the Commitments of the Lenders ratably, in accordance with the Pro Rata Shares.
(c)    The Maturity Date may be extended on up to two occasions, but not more than once per calendar year, in the manner set forth in this subsection (c) for a period of one year from the Maturity Date then in effect.  If the Borrower wishes to request an extension of the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall give written notice to that effect to the Administrative Agent no later than one year prior to the Maturity Date then in effect, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each of the Lenders of such request.  Each Lender will use its best efforts to respond to such request, whether affirmatively or negatively, as it may elect in its sole and absolute discretion, within 20 days of such notice to the Administrative Agent.  Any Lender not responding to such request within such time period shall be deemed to have responded negatively to such request.  Subject to receipt by the Administrative Agent of counterparts of a duly executed extension agreement in form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (an “Extension Agreement”), the 

32

Maturity Date shall be extended, as to Lenders responding affirmatively to such request, to the first anniversary of the Maturity Date then in effect.  The Borrower may request the Lenders that do not elect to extend the Maturity Date to assign their Commitments in their entirety to one or more financial institutions pursuant to Section 9.06, which assignees will agree to extend the Maturity Date.  If any Lender rejects, or is deemed to have rejected, the Borrower’s request to extend the Maturity Date, then (i) this Agreement shall terminate on the Maturity Date then in effect with respect to such Lender and (ii) the Borrower shall pay to such Lender on such Maturity Date any amounts due and payable to such Lender on such date.
Section 2.10.  Repayment of Loans.  To the extent not previously paid, all Loans shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.
Section 2.11.  Prepayments of Loans. (a)  Voluntary Prepayments.  (i)  The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, without premium or penalty but subject to Section 2.14(c), prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part; provided that each partial voluntary prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000.
(ii)    To make a voluntary prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i), the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) (A) on the date of prepayment, in the case of prepayment of Base Rate Borrowings, or (B) at least three Business Days prior to the date of prepayment, in the case of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Borrowings.  Each such notice shall specify the prepayment date (which shall be a Business Day) and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid, and may be given by telephone or in writing (and, if given by telephone, shall promptly be confirmed in writing).  Each such notice shall be irrevocable, and the principal amount of each Borrowing specified therein shall become due and payable on the prepayment date specified therein; provided that, if a notice of voluntary prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.09, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.09.  Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the details thereof.  
(b)    Change in Control Termination/Put Right.  Promptly upon any Authorized Officer of the Borrower obtaining knowledge of the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders a certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower setting forth the details thereof and referring to the right of the Lenders under this Section 2.11(b) (the “Notice of Change in Control”).  In the event the Notice of Change in Control shall have been delivered by the Borrower, each Lender shall have the right to require that (i) the Commitment, if any, of such Lender terminate in whole and (ii) the Borrower prepay all outstanding Loans of such Lender, which right may be exercised by written notice thereof delivered to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) 

33

not later than the 45th day following the date on which the Notice of Change in Control shall have been delivered by the Borrower (it being understood that any Lender that shall have failed to exercise such right as set forth above shall be deemed to have waived such right).  In the event that any Lender shall have exercised such right as set forth above, (i) the Borrower shall prepay, without premium or penalty but subject to Section 2.14(c), all the outstanding Loans of such Lender and (ii) the Commitment of such Lender shall automatically terminate in whole, in each case on the date that is the 60th day following the date on which the Notice of Change in Control shall have been delivered by the Borrower.
Section 2.12.  General Provisions Regarding Payments.  (a)  All payments by the Borrower of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made in Dollars in same day funds, without defense, recoupment, setoff or counterclaim and free of any restriction or condition.  All such payments shall be delivered not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date due to such account as may be designated by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Persons entitled thereto; provided that payments made pursuant to Sections 9.02 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall distribute any payment received by it hereunder for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.
(b)    All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan (other than a prepayment of a Base Rate Loan prior to the end of the Commitment Period) shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid, and all such payments (and, in any event, any payments in respect of any Loan on a date when interest is due and payable with respect to such Loan) shall be applied to the payment of interest then due and payable before application to principal.
(c)    Each repayment or prepayment of a Borrowing hereunder shall be allocated ratably, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, among the Lenders holding Loans included in the repaid or prepaid Borrowing, it being understood that this paragraph shall not apply to any prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.11(b).
(d)    Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions hereof, if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans in lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any Eurodollar Rate Loans, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurodollar Rate Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the Base Rate Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurodollar Rate Loans.
(e)    Whenever any payment to be made hereunder with respect to any Loan shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.

34

(f)    Any payment hereunder by or on behalf of the Borrower that is not received by the Administrative Agent in same day funds prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date due shall be deemed to have been received, for purposes of computing interest and fees hereunder (including for purposes of determining applicability of Section 2.07) on the Business Day next succeeding the date of receipt (or, if later, the Business Day next succeeding the date the funds received become available funds).
(g)    If an Event of Default shall have occurred and the maturity of the Loans shall have been accelerated pursuant to Article 7, all payments or proceeds received by the Administrative Agent hereunder in respect of any of the Obligations shall be applied, first, to the payment of all fees and other amounts owing to the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as such), and, second, to the extent of any excess of such payment or proceeds, to the payment of all other Obligations for the ratable benefit of the Guaranteed Parties entitled thereto.  
Section 2.13.  Ratable Sharing.  If any Lender shall, whether by voluntary payment, through the exercise of any right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents or otherwise or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment in respect of any principal, interest or commitment fees then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such Lender than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a portion of such payment to purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such payments of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all the Lenders ratably in accordance with the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided that, if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.  The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, consolidation, set-off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by the Borrower to such holder with respect thereto as fully as if such holder were owed the amount of the participation held by such holder.  The provisions of this Section 2.13 shall not be construed to apply to (i) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including any payment made by the Borrower to any Lender as a result of such Lender exercising its right under Section 2.11(b)) or (ii) any payment obtained by any Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or other Obligations owing to it.

Section 2.14.  Making or Maintaining Eurodollar Rate Loans.  (a)  Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate.  If, on or prior to any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto, absent manifest error) that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice (which may be telephonic) thereof to the Borrower and each Lender of such determination, whereupon (i) no Loans may be made as, or converted to, Eurodollar Rate Loans until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist and (ii) any Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice given by the Borrower with respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be ineffective.
(b)    Illegality or Impracticability of Eurodollar Rate Loans.  In the event that on any date any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that the making, maintaining or continuation of its Eurodollar Rate Loans (i) has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any applicable law (or would conflict with any treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful) or (ii) has become impracticable as a result of contingencies occurring after the date hereof which materially and adversely affect the London interbank market or the position of such Lender in that market, then, and in any such event, such Lender shall be an “Affected Lender” and it shall on that day give notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender).  If the Administrative Agent receives (A) a notice from any Lender pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence or (B) a notice from Lenders constituting the Requisite Lenders pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, then (1) the obligation of such Lender (or, in the case of a notice referred to in clause (B) above, the Lenders) to make Loans as, or to convert Loans to, Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until such notice shall have been withdrawn by such Lender (or, in the case of a notice referred to in clause (B) above, Lenders constituting the Requisite Lenders), (2) to the extent any such notice relates to a Eurodollar Rate Loan or Loans then being requested by the Borrower pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, such Lender (or, in the case of a notice referred to in clause (B) above, the Lenders) shall make such Loan or Loans as (or continue such Loan or Loans as or convert such Loan or Loans to, as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan or Loans, (3) such Lender’s (or, in the case of a notice referred to in clause (B) above, the Lenders’) obligation to maintain outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans (the “Affected Loans”) shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law and (4) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans on the date of such termination.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender or the Requisite Lenders as described above 

36

relates to a Eurodollar Rate Loan then being requested by the Borrower pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Borrower shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 2.14(c), to rescind such Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice as to all Lenders by giving written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender or the Requisite Lenders give notice of its or their determination as described above (which notice of rescission the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to the Lenders).
(c)    Compensation for Breakage.  The Borrower shall compensate each Lender for all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities that such Lender may sustain in the event (i) a borrowing of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in any Funding Notice given by the Borrower (other than as a result of a failure by such Lender to make such Loan in accordance with its obligations hereunder), (ii) a conversion to or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in any Conversion/Continuation Notice given by the Borrower, (iii) any payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or a Change in Control), (iv) the conversion of any Eurodollar Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto, (v) the assignment of any Eurodollar Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19 or (vi) a prepayment of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in any notice of prepayment given by the Borrower.  Such loss, cost, expense or liability to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan (but not including the Applicable Margin applicable thereto), 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 Loan), over (B) the amount of interest that 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 London interbank market.  To request compensation under this paragraph, a Lender shall deliver to the Borrower a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this paragraph, which certificate shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.
(d)    Booking of Eurodollar Rate Loans.  Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Eurodollar Rate Loans at, to or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of any Affiliate of such Lender.

37

(e)    Assumptions Concerning Funding of Eurodollar Rate Loans.  Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.14 and under Section 2.15 shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded each of its relevant Eurodollar Rate Loans through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of Adjusted Eurodollar Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurodollar deposit from an offshore office of such Lender to a domestic office of such Lender in the United States of America; provided that each Lender may fund each of its Eurodollar Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 2.14 and under Section 2.15.
Section 2.15.  Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.  (a)  Compensation for Increased Costs and Taxes.  Subject to the provisions of Section 2.16 (which shall solely govern with respect to any Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment made by or on account of any obligation of any Credit Party under any Credit Document), in the event that any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any Change in Law: (i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any additional Tax (other than any Tax on the overall net income of such Lender) with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents or any of its Loans or obligations hereunder or thereunder or any deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (other than any such reserve or other requirements with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans that are reflected in the definition of Adjusted Eurodollar Rate); or (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations or Loans hereunder or the London interbank market; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loan hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder.  Such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.15(a), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.  Such statement shall be in reasonable detail and shall certify that the claim for additional amounts referred to therein is generally consistent with such Lender’s treatment of 

38

similarly situated customers of such Lender whose transactions with such Lender are similarly affected by the change in circumstances giving rise to such payment, but such Lender shall not be required to disclose any confidential or proprietary information therein.  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 or reductions incurred 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; provided further 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. 
(b)    Capital Adequacy Adjustment.  If any Lender determines that a Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Loans or Commitments or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase in, applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time, within 10 Business Days after receipt by the Borrower from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation for such reduction.  Such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to Lender under this Section 2.16(b), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.  Such statement shall be in reasonable detail and shall certify that the claim for additional amounts referred to therein is generally consistent with such Lender’s treatment of similarly situated customers of such Lender whose transactions with such Lender are similarly affected by the change in circumstances giving rise to such payment, but such Lender shall not be required to disclose any confidential or proprietary information therein.  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 or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further 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.

39

Section 2.16.  Taxes; Withholding, Etc.  (a)  Payments to Be Free and Clear.  All sums payable by or on account of any obligation of any Credit Party hereunder or under the other Credit Documents, which sums are paid by any Credit Party or the Administrative Agent shall (except to the extent required by law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Tax.
(b)    Withholding of Taxes.  If any Credit Party or the Administrative Agent is required by law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any Specified Tax from any sum paid or payable by any Credit Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any of the Credit Documents: (i) the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as the Borrower becomes aware of it; (ii) the applicable Credit Party or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall pay any such Tax before the date on which penalties attach thereto; (iii) the sum payable by such Credit Party in respect of which the relevant deduction or withholding is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of that deduction or withholding (including any deduction or withholding of Specified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16), the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required or made; and (iv) within 30 days after the due date of payment of any Tax which it is required to deduct or withhold, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence reasonably satisfactory to the other affected parties of such deduction, withholding or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority; provided that no such additional amount under  clause (iii) above shall be required to be paid to any Lender (other than a Lender that becomes a Lender pursuant to Section 2.19) except to the extent that any change after the date hereof (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof on the Closing Date), or after the effective date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which such Lender became a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), in any such requirement for a deduction or withholding as is mentioned therein shall result in an increase in the rate of such deduction or withholding from that in effect at the date hereof or at the date of such Assignment Agreement, as the case may be, in respect of payments to such Lender; provided further that a Lender that shall have become a Lender pursuant to an Assignment Agreement shall be entitled to receive only such additional amounts as such Lender’s assignor would have been entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16(b).  For purposes of this Agreement, FATCA shall be deemed to be in effect as of the date of this Agreement.
(c)    Evidence of Exemption from U.S. Withholding Tax.  Each Lender that is not a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes (a “Non-US Lender”) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for transmission to the Borrower, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof on the Closing Date) or on or prior to the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of the Borrower or the Administrative 

40

Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (i) two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI and/or W-8IMY (or, in each case, any successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by the Borrower to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of interest under any of the Credit Documents, or (ii) if such Lender is not a “bank” or other Person described in Section 881(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, a Certificate re Non-Bank Status together with two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by the Borrower to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Credit Documents.  Each Lender that is a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) for United States federal income tax purposes (a “U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower on or prior to the Closing Date (or, if later, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement) two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, certifying that such U.S. Lender is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax.  Each Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to this Section 2.16(c) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Lender shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent for transmission to the Borrower two new original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI and/or W-8IMY (or, in each case, any successor form), or a Certificate re Non-Bank Status and two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor form), as the case may be, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by the Borrower to confirm or establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to payments to such Lender under the Credit Documents, or notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence.  No Credit Party shall be required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Section 2.16(b)(iii) or any indemnity payment pursuant to Section 2.16(d) to any Lender if such Lender shall have failed (1) to deliver the forms, certificates or other evidence referred to in the first two sentences of this Section 2.16(c) or (2) solely with respect to Non-US Lenders, to notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence, as the case may be; provided that if such Lender shall have satisfied the requirements of the first sentence of this Section 2.16(c) on the Closing Date or on the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it became a Lender, as applicable, nothing in this 

41

sentence of Section 2.16(c) shall relieve any Credit Party of its obligation to pay any additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.16(b)(iii) or indemnity payments pursuant to Section 2.16(d) in the event that, as a result of any change in any applicable law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration or application thereof, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding as described herein.  If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement 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 Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Credit Parties or the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Credit Parties or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Credit Parties or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Credit Parties or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.16(c), “FATCA” shall include any statutory amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(d)    Indemnification.  The applicable Credit Party shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Specified Tax paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of such Credit Party hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (including any Specified Tax imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Specified Tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant taxing or other authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to such Credit Party by a Lender or the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
(e)    Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its reasonable sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Credit Party or with respect to which any Credit Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.16(b)(iii), it shall pay over such refund to the applicable Credit Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Credit Party under Section 2.16(b)(iii) or 2.16(d), as applicable, with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender related to receipt of the refund and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that such Credit Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, 

42

agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Credit Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  This Section 2.16(e) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to any Credit Party or any other Person.
Section 2.17.  Obligation to Mitigate.  Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible for administering its Loans becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Section 2.15 or 2.16, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (a) make, issue, fund or maintain its Commitments or Loans, including any Affected Loans, through another office of such Lender or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable (including the provision to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of properly completed and executed documentation or Tax forms), if as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.16 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of its Commitments or Loans through such other office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Commitments, Loans or the interests of such Lender; provided that such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this Section 2.17 unless the Borrower agrees to pay all incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such other office as described above.  A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.17 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
Section 2.18.  Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if one or more Lenders become Defaulting Lenders, then, upon notice to such effect by the Administrative Agent (which notice may be given only upon the Administrative Agent becoming aware that any Lender shall have become a Defaulting Lender, including as a result of being advised thereof by the Borrower or the Requisite Lenders), the following provisions shall apply for so long as any such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
(a)    the Commitment of each Defaulting Lender shall be disregarded in determining whether the Requisite Lenders shall have taken any action hereunder or under any other Credit Document (including any consent to any waiver, amendment or other modification pursuant to Section 9.05); provided that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such 

43

Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;
(b)    no commitment fee shall accrue on the unused amount of the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.08; and
(c)    any amount payable to or for the account of any Defaulting Lender in its capacity as a Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) may, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated account and be applied, at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to, but may in its sole discretion, ascertain or inquire as to whether any Lender shall have become, or shall have ceased to be, a Defaulting Lender, and shall not be required to give any notice or take any other action inconsistent with any determination made by it as to whether any Lender is a Defaulting Lender.
Section 2.19.  Removal or Replacement of a Lender.  Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that: (a) (i) any Lender (an “Increased-Cost Lender”) shall give notice to the Borrower that such Lender is an Affected Lender or that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under Section 2.15 or 2.16, (ii) the circumstances which have caused such Lender to be an Affected Lender or which entitle such Lender to receive such payments shall remain in effect and (iii) such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five Business Days after the Borrower’s request for such withdrawal; (b) any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender; or (c) in connection with any proposed waiver, amendment or other modification of any Credit Document, or any consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, of the type referred to in Section 9.05(b), the consent of the Requisite Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) whose consent is required but shall not have been obtained; then, with respect to each such Increased-Cost Lender, Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Lender (each, a “Terminated Lender”), the Borrower may, by giving written notice to the Administrative Agent and any Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its Commitment and its outstanding Loans, if any, in full to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.06 and the Borrower shall pay the fees, if any, payable under such Section in connection with any such assignment; provided that (i) on the date of such assignment, the Replacement Lender shall pay to the Terminated Lender an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of such Terminated Lender and (B) an amount equal to all accrued, but 

44

ARTICLE 8 
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
Section 8.01.  Appointment of the Administrative Agent.  JPMCB is hereby appointed the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents and each Lender hereby authorizes JPMCB to act as the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Credit Documents.  The Administrative Agent hereby agrees to act in its capacity as such upon the express conditions contained herein and the other Credit Documents, as applicable.  The provisions of this Article 8 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and no Credit Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions thereof.  In performing its functions and duties hereunder, the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower or any Subsidiary (it being understood that nothing in this Section 8.01 shall limit the express agreements of the Administrative Agent set forth in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents).  As of the Closing Date, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, in their capacities as Arrangers, shall have no obligations, in such capacities, under this Agreement but shall be entitled to all benefits of this Article 8. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties hereto hereby agree that no bookrunner, documentation agent, managing agent or co-agent named on the cover of this Agreement shall have any rights, duties, responsibilities or liabilities in such respective capacity under this Agreement, nor shall any such Person have the authority to take any action hereunder in its capacity as such.
Section 8.02.  Powers and Duties.  Each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Credit Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as are reasonably 

62

incidental thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly specified herein and the other Credit Documents.  The Administrative Agent may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees. The Administrative Agent shall not have, by reason hereof or any of the other Credit Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender; and nothing herein or any of the other Credit Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Administrative Agent any obligations in respect hereof or any of the other Credit Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein.
Section 8.03.  General Immunity.  (a)  No Responsibility for Certain Matters.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency hereof or any other Credit Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders or by or on behalf of any Credit Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the Credit Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of any Credit Party or any other Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall the Administrative Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Credit Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or as to the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default or to make any disclosures with respect to the foregoing.  Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Loans or the component amounts thereof.
(b)    Exculpatory Provisions.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable to the Lenders for any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the Credit Documents except to the extent caused by the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action) in connection herewith or with any of the other Credit Documents or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received instructions in respect thereof from the Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be required, to give such instructions under Section 9.05) and, upon receipt of such instructions from the Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders, as the case may be), the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to act or (where so instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such instructions; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion, could expose the Administrative Agent to liability or be contrary to any Credit Document or applicable law.  Without 

63

prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for the Borrower and the Subsidiaries), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting hereunder or any of the other Credit Documents in accordance with the instructions of the  Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be required, to give such instructions under Section 9.05).  The Administrative Agent shall incur no liability to any Person in acting upon any telephonic notice permitted to be given by the Borrower hereunder that the Administrative Agent believes in good faith to have been given by a duly authorized officer or other person authorized on behalf of the Borrower or for otherwise acting in good faith. 
(c)    Delegation of Duties.  The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement 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 their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory, indemnification and other provisions of this Section 8.03 and of Section 8.06 shall apply to the Affiliates of the Administrative Agent and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facility provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent.  All of the rights, benefits, and privileges (including the exculpatory and indemnification provisions) of this Section 8.03 and of Section 8.06 shall apply to and may be asserted directly by any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities as sub-agent as if such sub-agent and Affiliates were named herein.  
Section 8.04.  Administrative Agent Entitled to Act as Lender.  Nothing herein or in any other Credit Document shall in any way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder.  With respect to its Loans, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Lender” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.  The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with the Borrower or any of its Affiliates as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower for services in connection herewith and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.

64

Section 8.05.  Lenders’ Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgment.  (a)  Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries in connection with the Loans and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries.  The Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of the Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to the Lenders.
(b)    Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement or an Assignment Agreement and funding its Loan on any Credit Date, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Credit Document and each other document required to be approved by the Administrative Agent, the Requisite Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable, on the Closing Date.
Section 8.06.  Right to Indemnity.  Each Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and any Related Party of any of the foregoing, to the extent that the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any such Related Party shall not have been reimbursed by any Credit Party, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any such Related Party in exercising the powers, rights and remedies, or performing the duties, of the Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents or otherwise in relation to the capacity of the Administrative Agent as such; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  If any indemnity furnished to the Administrative Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided that in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify the Administrative Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof; and provided further that this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Lender to indemnify the Administrative Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement described in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence.  For purposes of this Section 8.06, “Pro Rata Share” shall be determined as of the time that the applicable indemnity payment is 

65

sought (or, in the event at such time all the Commitments shall have terminated and all the Loans shall have been repaid in full, as of the time most recently prior thereto determined by the Administrative Agent).
Section 8.07.  Successor Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall have the right to resign at any time by giving prior written notice thereof to Lenders and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and signed by the Requisite Lenders.  The Administrative Agent shall have the right to appoint a financial institution to act as the Administrative Agent hereunder, subject to the reasonable satisfaction of the Borrower and the Requisite Lenders, and the Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective on the earliest of (a) 30 days after delivery of the notice of resignation, (b) the acceptance of such successor Administrative Agent by the Borrower and the Requisite Lenders or (c) such other date, if any, agreed to by the Requisite Lenders.  Upon any such notice of resignation or any such removal, if a successor Administrative Agent has not already been appointed by the retiring Administrative Agent, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right, upon five Business Days’ notice to the Borrower, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent.  If neither the Requisite Lenders nor the Administrative Agent has appointed a successor Administrative Agent, the Requisite Lenders shall be deemed to have succeeded to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, that successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall promptly transfer to such successor Administrative Agent all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents, whereupon such retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.  After any retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 8 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent hereunder. 
Section 8.08.  Withholding Taxes.  To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax.  If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all reasonable 

66

expenses (including reasonable legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.

The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications or rescinded by such Person by notice to each other such Person.  Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (A) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall grant access to any such Confidential Information distributed or stored on the Platform only to those of its employees as constitute persons to whom disclosure of Confidential Information is permitted under Section 9.17 (it being further understood and agreed that (A) each such person shall use any such Confidential Information 

68

only in connection with this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and (B) the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall be responsible for compliance by such person with the terms of Section 9.17 with respect to any such Confidential Information).
(c)    Notices of Default or Event of Default.  Any notice of Default or Event of Default may be provided by telephone if confirmed promptly thereafter by delivery of written notice thereof.
Section 9.02.  Expenses.  The Borrower agrees to pay (a) the reasonable fees and expenses of outside counsel incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and their respective Affiliates in connection with the post-closing administration of the Credit Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions of any Credit Document (whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby shall be consummated); provided that the Borrower shall not be required to reimburse the legal fees and expenses of more than one outside counsel (and appropriate local counsel) for all Persons covered under this clause (a), unless there are actual or potential conflicting interests between or among such persons arising out of the matters within the scope of this clause (a), and (b) after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, all costs and expenses, including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of outside counsel and costs of settlement, incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in enforcing any Obligations of or in collecting any payments due from any Credit Party hereunder or under the other Credit Documents or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a “work-out” or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy cases or proceedings.  All amounts due under this Section 9.02 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.
Section 9.03.  Indemnity.  (a)  In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to Section 9.02, the Borrower agrees to indemnify, pay and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), the Arrangers, each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing (each, an “Indemnitee”), from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided that the Borrower shall have no obligation to any Indemnitee under this paragraph with respect to (i) any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise from (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, in each case, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (y) a claim brought by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower against any Indemnitee for material breach of such Indemnitee’s express obligations hereunder (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any failure by such Indemnitee to comply with its obligation to fund any portion of its Loans as required hereby) or under any other Credit Document, if the Borrower or such Subsidiary has obtained a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction in its favor on such claim or (ii) any settlement with respect to such Indemnified Liabilities which is entered into by such Indemnitee without the Borrower’s written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed taking into account, among other relevant matters, the likelihood of non-monetary injury to each Indemnitee).  To the extent that the 

69

undertakings to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this paragraph may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them.  All amounts due under this paragraph shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.  This Section 9.03(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.
(b)    To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages), whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement, arising out of, in connection with, as a result of or in any way related to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and the Borrower, for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates, hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its or their favor.
Section 9.04.  Set Off.  In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Borrower or any other Person (other than the Administrative Agent), but subject to the approval of the Requisite Lenders, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provision or final, in whatever currency, including Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but excluding trust accounts) or other amounts at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against and on account of the obligations then due of the Borrower to such Lender hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder.
Section 9.05.  Amendments and Waivers.  (a)  Requisite Lenders’ Consent.  None of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified, and no consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom may be made, except, subject to paragraphs (b) and (c) below, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Requisite Lenders and, in the case of any other Credit Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Credit Party or Credit Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the consent of the Requisite Lenders; provided that any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document may be amended by an 

70

agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency so long as, in each case, the Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Requisite Lenders stating that the Requisite Lenders object to such amendment. 
(b)    Affected Lenders’ Consent.  Without the written consent of each Lender that would be directly affected thereby, no waiver, amendment or other modification of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or any consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall be effective if the effect thereof would be to:
(i)    increase any Commitment or postpone the scheduled expiration of any Commitment (it being understood that no waiver, amendment or other modification of any condition precedent, covenant, Default or Event of Default shall constitute an increase in any Commitment of any Lender);
(ii)        extend the scheduled final maturity date of any Loan;
(iii)        waive or postpone the payment of interest on any Loan or any fee payable hereunder;
(iv)        reduce the rate of interest on any Loan (other than any waiver of any increase in the interest rate applicable to any Loan pursuant to Section 2.07) or any fee payable hereunder;
(v)        reduce the principal amount of any Loan;
(vi)        waive, amend or otherwise modify any provision of Section 9.05(a) or this Section 9.05(b) or any other provision of this Agreement that expressly provides that the consent of all Lenders is required to waive, amend or otherwise modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder;
(vii)    amend the definition of term “Requisite Lenders” or the term “Pro Rata Share” or Section 2.12(c) or 2.13;
(viii)    release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from the Guarantee under the Guarantee Agreement (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents); or
(ix)    consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under any Credit Document;
provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, all Lenders shall be deemed directly affected by any matter described in clauses (vi), (vii), (viii) and (ix).  

71

(c)    Other Consents.  No waiver, amendment or other modification of any Credit Documents or any provision thereof, or any consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall waive, amend or otherwise modify any provision of Article 8 as the same applies to the Administrative Agent, or any other provision of any Credit Document as the same applies to the rights or obligations of the Administrative Agent, in each case without the consent of the Administrative Agent.
(d)    Requisite Execution of Amendments, Etc.  The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute waivers, amendments, modifications or consents on behalf of such Lender.  Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.  No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.  Any waiver, amendment, modification or consent effected in accordance with this Section 9.05 shall be binding upon each Person that is, at the time of the effectiveness thereof, a Lender and each Person that subsequently becomes a Lender and, if signed by a Credit Party, upon such Credit Party.
Section 9.06.  Successors and Assigns; Participations.  (a)  Generally.  This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby.  None of the Borrower’s rights or obligations hereunder, nor any interest therein, may be assigned or delegated without the prior written consent of all the Lenders (and any attempted assignment or delegation by the Borrower without such consent 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, the participants referred to in Section 9.06(g) (to the extent provided in clause (iii) of such Section), the Arrangers and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of any of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or any Lender) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b)    Register.  The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such Commitment or Loan shall be effective, in each case, unless and until recorded in the Register following receipt by the Administrative Agent of a fully executed Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or transfer thereof, together with the required forms and certificates regarding tax matters and any fees payable in connection with such assignment, in each case, as provided in Section 9.06(d).  Each assignment shall be recorded in the Register promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of the fully executed Assignment Agreement and all other necessary documents and approvals, prompt notice thereof shall be provided to the Borrower and a copy of such Assignment Agreement shall be maintained, as applicable.  The date of such recordation of an assignment or transfer shall be referred to herein as the “Assignment Effective Date.”  Any request, authority or consent of any Person that, at the time of making 

72

such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Commitments or Loans.
(c)    Right to Assign.  Each Lender shall have the right, subject to the notice and consent requirements set forth below in this Section 9.06(c), at any time to assign or transfer all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it, to:
(i)    any Eligible Assignee upon the giving of notice to, and the receipt of the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (the consent of the Administrative Agent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required (A) for an assignment to an Eligible Assignee of the type referred to in clause (a) of the definition of such term or (B) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing; and
(ii)    in the case of any such assignment or transfer (other than to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (a) of the definition of the term “Eligible Assignee”), the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject thereto shall not be less than $100,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or as shall constitute the entire remaining amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender); and
(iii)    each partial assignment or transfer shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations of the assigning Lender hereunder.
(d)    Mechanics.  Assignments and assumptions of Loans and Commitments by Lenders shall be effected by manual execution and delivery to Administrative Agent of an Assignment Agreement.  Assignments made pursuant to the foregoing provision shall be effective as of the Assignment Effective Date.  In connection with all assignments there shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver pursuant to Section 2.16(c), together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 (except that no such registration and processing fee shall be payable (i) in connection with an assignment by or to JPMCB or any Affiliate thereof or (ii) in the case of an assignee that is already a Lender or is an Affiliate or Related Fund of a Lender or a Person under common management with a Lender).
(e)    Representations and Warranties of Assignee.  Each Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon succeeding to an interest in the Commitments and Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the Closing Date or as of the Assignment Effective Date that (i) it is an Eligible Assignee, (ii) it has experience 

73

and expertise in the making of or investing in commitments or loans such as the applicable Commitments or Loans, as the case may be and (iii) it will make or invest in, as the case may be, its Commitment or Loans for its own account in the ordinary course and without a view to distribution of such Commitment or Loans within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Section 9.06, the disposition of such Commitment or Loans or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control).
(f)    Effect of Assignment.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 9.06, as of the “Assignment Effective Date” (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder to the extent of its interest in the Loans and Commitments as reflected in the Register and shall thereafter be a party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof; (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to the assignee, relinquish its rights (other than any rights that survive the termination hereof under Section 9.08) and be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an assignment covering all the remaining rights and obligations of an assigning Lender hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto on the Assignment Effective Date; provided that such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of all rights that survive the termination hereof under Section 9.08); (iii) the Commitments shall be modified to reflect any Commitment of such assignee, if any; and (iv) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to the Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon the Borrower shall issue and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Commitments or outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender.
(g)    Participations.
(i)    Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or more participations to any Person (other than to any Credit Party or any Affiliate thereof) in all or any part of its Commitments or Loans or in any other Obligation.
(ii)    The holder of any such participation, other than an Affiliate of the Lender granting such participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except with respect to any waiver, amendment, modification or consent that is described in Section 9.05(b) that affects such Participant or requires the approval of all the Lenders.
(iii)    The Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14(c), 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Sections 9.06(c) and 9.06(d); provided that (A) a participant shall not be entitled to 

74

receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, unless the sale of the participation to such participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent, and (B) a participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such participant and such participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with and be subject to Sections 2.16, 2.17 and 2.19 as though it became a Lender pursuant to an Assignment Agreement; provided further that, except as specifically set forth in clauses (A) and (B) of this sentence, nothing herein shall require any notice to the Borrower or any other Person in connection with the sale of any 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 2.19 with respect to any participant.  To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.04 as though it were a Lender; provided that such participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender.
(iv)    Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other Obligations under the Credit Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Credit Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(h)    Certain Other Assignments and Participations.  In addition to any other assignment or participation permitted pursuant to this Section 9.06, any Lender may assign, pledge and/or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its Loans or other Obligations owed to such Lender and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender, including to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any operating circular issued by any Federal Reserve Bank or to any other central bank; provided that no Lender, as between the Borrower and such Lender, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge, and provided further that in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank, pledgee or 

75

trustee be considered to be a “Lender” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.
Section 9.07.  Independence of Covenants.  All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.
Section 9.08.  Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements.  All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Credit Parties in the Credit Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Credit Documents and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any Credit Document is executed and delivered or any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid.  The provisions of Sections 2.14(c), 2.15, 2.16, 9.02, 9.03, 9.04 and, to the extent set forth therein, 9.17 and Article 8 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.
Section 9.09.  No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver thereof or of any Default or Event of Default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such power, right or privilege, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or privilege.  The powers, rights, privileges and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Credit Documents are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all powers, rights, privileges and remedies they would otherwise have.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the making of any Loan hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.
Section 9.10.  Marshalling; Payments Set Aside.  None of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Credit Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.  To the extent that any Credit Party makes a payment or payments to the 

76

Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender enforces any security interests or exercises any right of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
Section 9.11.  Severability.  In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
Section 9.12.  Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights.  The obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder.  Nothing contained herein or in any other Credit Document, and no action taken by the Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising hereunder and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
Section 9.13.  Headings.  Article, Section and paragraph headings herein are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.
Section 9.14.  APPLICABLE LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF.
Section 9.15.  CONSENT TO JURISDICTION.  SUBJECT TO CLAUSE (E) BELOW, ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY PARTY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING HERETO OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, OR ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS, SHALL BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN THE STATE, COUNTY AND CITY OF NEW YORK.  BY EXECUTING AND DELIVERING THIS AGREEMENT, EACH CREDIT PARTY, FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, IRREVOCABLY (A) ACCEPTS GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS; (B) WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM 

77

NON CONVENIENS; (C) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO THE APPLICABLE CREDIT PARTY AT ITS ADDRESS PROVIDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 9.01; (D) AGREES THAT SERVICE AS PROVIDED IN CLAUSE (C) ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER THE APPLICABLE CREDIT PARTY IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT; AND (E) AGREES THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS RETAIN THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY CREDIT PARTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN CONNECTION WITH THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS UNDER ANY CREDIT DOCUMENT OR THE ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT.
Section 9.16.  WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT OR ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THE LENDER/BORROWER RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED.  THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS.  EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN ITS RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS.  EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL.  THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS SECTION 9.16 AND EXECUTED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS HERETO OR ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE LOANS MADE HEREUNDER.  IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

78

Section 9.17.  Confidentiality.  The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall keep confidential in accordance with this Section 9.17 all non public information disclosed to it by the Borrower or any Subsidiary at any time on or after the date hereof regarding the business, operations, assets, liabilities and financial condition of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries, including any product plans and designs, software, technology, inventions, business plans and opportunities and financial statements but excluding the existence and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Exhibits and Schedules hereto (other than any such Schedule setting forth any such information regarding the Borrower and the Subsidiaries), and the other Credit Documents (collectively, the “Confidential Information”).  The Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees that it shall not publicly disclose, or make any public statement regarding the existence and the terms or conditions of, this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, including any of the Exhibits and Schedules hereto and thereto.  Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders further agrees that it (a) shall use the Confidential Information only in connection with this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, including exercising its rights and remedies thereunder or administering the terms thereof, (b) shall take reasonable precautions with respect to the confidentiality of the Confidential Information that are at least as protective as precautions employed by it with respect to confidential materials of similar nature of its other clients, (c) shall not reverse engineer or remove any proprietary markings from any Confidential Information and (d) except as otherwise permitted under this Section 9.17, shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any individual or organization, either internally or externally, without the prior written consent of the Borrower.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed by the Borrower that the Administrative Agent may disclose any Confidential Information to the Lenders, and the Administrative Agent and each Lender may make (i) disclosures of any Confidential Information to its Affiliates in connection with this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, (ii) disclosures of any Confidential Information to its and its Affiliates’ respective directors, officers, credit and loan administration personnel, internal management and credit committee members, administrative personnel, conflicts and compliance personnel, personnel involved in swap transactions with the Borrower or its Affiliates, legal advisers (including outside counsel), auditors and other personnel, advisors and agents directly involved in the transactions contemplated hereby (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, any research analyst), in each case on a “need to know” basis (and to other Persons authorized by the Administrative Agent or such Lender to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 9.17), it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature thereof and instructed to keep such information confidential in accordance herewith, (iii) disclosures of any Confidential Information to any bona fide or potential assignee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation of any Commitments or Loans or any participations therein or to any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the borrower and its obligations or to any provider of credit insurance relating to the Borrower and its obligations, provided that (A) in the case of any such assignee or transferee in connection with any 

79

assignment and transfer requiring the prior written consent of the Borrower under Section 9.06(c), no Confidential Information other than the Limited Confidential Information may be disclosed to such assignee or transferee without the prior written consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (it being understood that such written consent, if obtained, shall in any event permit disclosures of the Standard Credit Information), (B) subject to clause (A) above, no Confidential Information other than Standard Credit Information may be disclosed without the prior written consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (C) such assignees, transferees, participants, counterparties and advisors are advised of and agree, in advance of such disclosure, in writing (including pursuant to customary “click-through” procedures) to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 9.17 or other provisions that are at least as restrictive as the provisions of this Section 9.17, (iv) disclosure of any Confidential Information to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information received by it from the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, (v) disclosures in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document, (vi) disclosures of any Confidential Information to any other party to this Agreement (it being understood that such other party shall continue to be subject to the agreements set forth in this Section 9.17), (vii) disclosures required or requested by any Governmental Authority or by any self-regulatory authority, such as the NAIC, or pursuant to legal or judicial process, provided that, unless prohibited by applicable law, court order or rules and regulations of any Governmental Authority or self-regulatory authority, (A) the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall take commercially reasonable efforts to promptly notify the Borrower of any request by any Governmental Authority or any such self-regulatory authority (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing) by such Governmental Authority or self-regulatory authority) for disclosure of any such Confidential Information prior to the disclosure thereof and shall (other than in connection with any such examination where it is not practicable to do so under the circumstances) take commercially reasonable precautions to preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information subject to such disclosure and (B) the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees to use reasonably diligent efforts to assist (other than in connection with any request referred to in the second preceding parenthetical) the Borrower, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, in seeking to limit the disclosure of such Confidential Information or to obtain confidential treatment or protective order therefor, and (viii) disclosures to the extent such Confidential Information (A) has become publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.17 or (B) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Affiliate of any the foregoing from a source other than the Borrower or any Subsidiary to the extent such information is not known by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Affiliate to be subject to a confidentiality agreement between such source and the Borrower or any Subsidiary, provided that if the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Affiliate subsequently obtains knowledge that such information is subject to such 

80

confidentiality agreement, any further disclosure thereof may only be made to the extent otherwise permitted by this Section 9.17, and provided further that none of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall have any liability for any disclosure of such information prior to obtaining knowledge of any such confidentiality agreement.  To the extent that the Administrative Agent or any Lender provides any Confidential Information to any of its Affiliates or its or any of its Affiliates’ respective directors, officers and other personnel referred to in clause (ii) above, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, shall be responsible for compliance by such Affiliate and such persons with the terms of this Section 9.17.  The obligations under this Section 9.17 shall survive any termination of this Agreement and, with respect to any Confidential Information, shall expire three years after the date of receipt of such Confidential Information.  Any Confidential Information disclosed by the Borrower to any Lender pursuant to a non-disclosure agreement between the Borrower and such Lender shall become subject to the terms of this Section 9.17 as if disclosed to such Lender on the date hereof.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall acquire any intellectual property rights in any Confidential Information disclosed to it.  Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that any breach of this Section 9.17 may cause irreparable harm for which monetary damages are an insufficient remedy and, as a consequence thereof, upon any breach of this Section 9.17, the Borrower shall be entitled to seek appropriate equitable relief in addition to any remedies available to the Borrower at law.
Section 9.18.  Usury Savings Clause.  Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law, shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate.  If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect.  In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of the Lenders and the Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws.  Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the Borrower.

81

Section 9.19.  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same contract.
Section 9.20.  Effectiveness; Entire Agreement.  Subject to Article 3, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and there shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.  This Agreement and the other Credit Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof (but do not supersede any other provisions of any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Arrangers or the Administrative Agent or other matters that do not by the terms of such documents terminate upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, all of which provisions shall remain in full force and effect) and JPMCB and its Affiliates shall be released from all liability in connection therewith, including any claim for injury or damages, whether consequential, special, direct, indirect, punitive or otherwise.
Section 9.21.  PATRIOT Act.  Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower, on behalf of itself and each other Credit Party, that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Credit Party, which information includes the name and address of each 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 9.22.  Electronic Execution of Assignments.  The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature” and words of like import in any Assignment Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
Section 9.23.  Non-Public Information.  (a)  In the event the Borrower shall have any Equity Interests or other securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act or otherwise files or is required to file reports under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Borrower and each Lender acknowledges that certain of the Lenders may be Public Lenders and, if any document, notice or other information required to be delivered hereunder is being distributed through the Platform, any information that the Borrower has indicated contains Non-Public Information will not 

82

be posted on that portion of the Platform designated for such Public Lenders.  If the Borrower has not indicated whether a document, notice or other information provided to the Administrative Agent by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Subsidiary contains Non-Public Information, the Administrative Agent reserves the right to post such information solely on the portion of the Platform designated for Lenders that wish to receive material Non-Public Information with respect to the Borrower, the Subsidiaries and its and their securities.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 9.23 shall create any obligation on the Borrower to indicate whether any information contains Non-Public Information, it being further agreed that if any such indication is provided by the Borrower in its discretion, such indication shall create no obligation on the Borrower to provide any such indication in the future.
(b)    Each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including United State federal and state securities laws, to make reference to information that is not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain Non Public Information with respect to the Borrower, the Subsidiaries or its or their securities.
Section 9.24.  No Fiduciary Duty.  The Administrative Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”) may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrower.  The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that nothing in the Credit Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between the Lenders and the Borrower, its Affiliates or its stockholders.  The Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that (a) the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Credit Parties, on the other, (b) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (i) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Credit Party, its Affiliates or its stockholders with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Credit Party, its Affiliates or its stockholders on other matters) or any other obligation to any Credit Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Credit Documents and (ii) each Lender is acting solely as a principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Credit Party, its Affiliates, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person.  The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto.  The Borrower agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Credit Parties, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

[FORM OF] GUARANTEE AGREEMENT dated as of August [  ], 2013 (this “Agreement”), among FACEBOOK, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS party hereto and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A. (“JPMCB”), as the Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Guaranteed Parties.
Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of August [  ], 2013 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Borrower, the Lenders party thereto and JPMCB, as the Administrative Agent.  The Lenders have agreed to extend credit to the Borrower subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement.  The obligations of the Lenders to extend such credit are conditioned upon, among other things, the execution and delivery of this Agreement.  The Subsidiary Guarantors will derive substantial benefits from the extension of credit to the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement and are willing to execute and deliver this Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to extend such credit.  Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1

(b)    The rules of construction specified in Sections 1.02 and 1.04 of the Credit Agreement apply to this Agreement, mutatis mutandis.

“Agreement” as defined in the preamble hereto.
“Borrower” as defined in the preamble hereto. 
“Credit Agreement” as defined in the preliminary statement hereto.
“Guaranteed Obligations” means (a) the due and punctual payment by the Borrower of the Obligations and (b) the due and punctual payment and performance of all other obligations of each other Credit Party under or pursuant to each Credit Document (including monetary obligations incurred during the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding).

“Guaranteed Parties” means (a) each Lender, (b) the Administrative Agent, (c) the Arranger, (d) the beneficiaries of each indemnification obligation undertaken by any Credit Party under any Credit Document and (e) the successors and assigns of each of the foregoing.

“Supplement” means an instrument in the form of Exhibit A hereto, or any other form approved by the Administrative Agent.
ARTICLE 2 
THE GUARANTEES
Section 2.01.  Guarantee.  Each Subsidiary Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to each of the Guaranteed Parties, jointly with the other Subsidiary Guarantors and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, by way of an independent payment obligation, the due and punctual payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations.  Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, or amended or modified, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee hereunder notwithstanding any extension, renewal, amendment or modification of any Guaranteed Obligation.  Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the Borrower or any other Credit Party of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its guarantee hereunder and notice of protest for nonpayment.
Section 2.02.  Guarantee of Payment; Continuing Guarantee.  Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its guarantee hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not merely of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party to any security held for the payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party in favor of the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any other Person.  Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that its guarantee hereunder is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether currently existing or hereafter incurred. 

Section 2.03.  No Limitations.  (a) Except for the termination or release of a Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Sections 5.16(a) and 5.16(b), the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, unenforceability or impossibility in the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except for the termination or release of its obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Sections 5.16(a) and 5.16(b), the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or other wise affected by:
(i)    the failure of the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any Credit Document or otherwise,
(ii)    any rescission, waiver, amendment or other modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, any Credit Document or any other agreement, including with respect to any other Subsidiary Guarantor under this Agreement,
(iii)    the release of any security held by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party for any of the Guaranteed Obligations,
(iv)    any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, or
(v)    any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Subsidiary Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of any Subsidiary Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.
Each Subsidiary Guarantor expressly authorizes the Guaranteed Parties to take and hold security for the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, to exchange, waive or release any or all such security (with or without consideration), to enforce or apply such security and direct the order and manner of any sale thereof in their sole discretion or to release or substitute any one or more other guarantors or obligors upon or in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, all without affecting the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.
(b)    To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Subsidiary Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower or any other Credit Party or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of 

the liability of the Borrower or any other Credit Party, other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations.  The Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with the Borrower or any other Credit Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against the Borrower or any other Credit Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Subsidiary Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Subsidiary Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Credit Party, as the case may be, or any security.
Section 2.04.  Reinstatement.  Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that its guarantee hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Guaranteed Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any other Credit Party or otherwise.
Section 2.05.  Agreement to Pay; Subrogation.  In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party has at law or in equity against any Subsidiary Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Borrower or any other Credit Party to pay any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby promises to and will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the applicable Guaranteed Parties in cash the amount of such unpaid Guaranteed Obligation.  Upon payment by any Subsidiary Guarantor of any sums to the Administrative Agent as provided above, all rights of such Subsidiary Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Credit Party arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subject to Article 3.
Section 2.06.  Information.  Each Subsidiary Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s and each other Credit Party’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks assumed or incurred by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, and agrees that none of the Guaranteed Parties will have any 

duty to advise such Subsidiary Guarantor of any information known to any Guaranteed Party regarding such circumstances or risks.
ARTICLE 3 
INDEMNITY, SUBROGATION AND SUBORDINATION
Section 3.01.  Indemnity and Subrogation.  In addition to all rights of indemnity and subrogation the Subsidiary Guarantors may have under applicable law (but subject to Section 3.03) in respect of any payment hereunder, the Borrower agrees that in the event a payment of any obligation of the Borrower shall be made by any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Agreement, the Borrower shall indemnify such Subsidiary Guarantor for the full amount of such payment and such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the Person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment.
Section 3.02.  Contribution and Subrogation.  Each Subsidiary Guarantor (a “Contributing Party”) agrees (subject to Section 3.03) that, in the event a payment shall be made by any other Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation and such other Subsidiary Guarantor (the “Claiming Party”) shall not have been fully indemnified by the Borrower as provided in Section 3.01, the Contributing Party shall indemnify the Claiming Party in an amount equal to the amount of such payment, multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the net worth of the Contributing Party on the date hereof and the denominator shall be the sum of the respective net worth of all the Subsidiary Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Subsidiary Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 5.17, the date of the Supplement pursuant to which such Subsidiary Guarantor became a party hereto).  Any Contributing Party making any payment to any Claiming Party pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall (subject to Section 3.03) be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Party under Section 3.01 to the extent of such payment.
Section 3.03.  Subordination.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all rights of the Subsidiary Guarantors under Sections 3.01 and 3.02 and all other rights of the Subsidiary Guarantors of indemnity, contribution or subrogation under applicable law or otherwise shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations.  No failure on the part of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor to make the payments required by Sections 3.01 and 3.02 (or any other payments required under applicable law or otherwise) shall in any respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to its obligations hereunder, and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable for the full amount of the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.
ARTICLE 4 
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Each Subsidiary Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties that (a) the execution, delivery and performance by such Subsidiary Guarantor of this Agreement are within such Subsidiary Guarantor’s corporate or other organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational and, if required, stockholder or other equityholder action, and that this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Subsidiary Guarantor and is the legally valid and binding obligation of such Subsidiary Guarantor, enforceable against such Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability, and (b) all representations and warranties as to such Subsidiary Guarantor set forth in each Credit Document are true and correct in all material respects (except insofar as such inaccuracy thereof would not be material and adverse to the creditworthiness of the Borrower or constitute a material breach of any Credit Document from the point of view of a Person extending credit to the Borrower as contemplated by the Credit Documents) on and as of the date hereof to the same extent as though made on and as of the date hereof, except in the case of any such representation and warranty that expressly relates to a prior date, in which case such representation and warranty was true and correct in all material respects (except insofar as such inaccuracy thereof would not be material and adverse to the creditworthiness of the Borrower or constitute a material breach of any Credit Document from the point of view of a Person extending credit to the Borrower as contemplated by the Credit Documents) on and as of such prior date; provided that, in each case, such materiality qualifier is not applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof.

All amounts due under this Section 5.02 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

Section 5.03.  Waiver.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Subsidiary Guarantor shall not assert, and hereby waives, for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages), whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement, arising out of, in connection with, as a result of or in any way related to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each Subsidiary Guarantor, for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates, hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its or their favor.
Section 5.04.  Set-Off.  In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized by each Subsidiary Guarantor at any time or from time to time, without notice to such Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person (other than the Administrative Agent), but subject to the approval of the Requisite Lenders, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provision or final, in whatever currency, including Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but excluding trust accounts) or other amounts at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of such Subsidiary Guarantor against and on account of the obligations then due of such Subsidiary Guarantor to such Lender hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder.
Section 5.05.  Amendments and Waivers.  Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified, and no consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom may be made, except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors, subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement and to the other terms of Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement.
Section 5.06.  Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby.  No rights or obligations hereunder of any Subsidiary Guarantor, nor any interest therein, may be assigned or delegated (and any such attempted assignment or delegation by any Subsidiary Guarantor 

shall be null and void) except as expressly provided in this Agreement or the Credit Agreement.
Section 5.07.  Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements.  All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by any Credit Party hereunder or in any other Credit Document, or in any certificate or instrument delivered in connection with or pursuant to any Credit Document, shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Guaranteed Parties and shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and of the other Credit Documents and the making of the Loans, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Guaranteed Party and notwithstanding that any Guaranteed Party may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time of the making of any Loan, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Commitment is in effect or the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan, any commitment fee or any other amount payable under any Credit Document is outstanding and unpaid.  The provisions of Sections 5.02, 5.03, 5.04 and 5.19 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.
Section 5.08.  No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver thereof or of any Default or Event of Default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such power, right or privilege, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or privilege.  The powers, rights, privileges and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Credit Documents are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all powers, rights, privileges and remedies they would otherwise have.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the making of any Loan hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.
Section 5.09.  Severability.  In case any provision in or obligation hereunder shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 5.10.  Headings.  Article and Section headings herein are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

Section 5.13.  Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT OR ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN

(b)    If the Borrower shall request the release under this Agreement of any guarantee of any Subsidiary Guarantor Article 1 upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Guarantor shall (A) cease to be a Subsidiary or (B) cease to be a wholly-owned Material Domestic Subsidiary or Article 2 that became a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to clause (b) of the Guarantee Requirement but is no longer required to be a Subsidiary Guarantor to satisfy the Guarantee Requirement, and shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower to the effect that (x) in the case of any requested release under clause (i) above, such transaction will comply with the terms of the Credit Agreement and (y) in the case of any requested release under clause (i)(B) or (ii) above, after giving effect to such release the Guarantee Requirement shall remain satisfied, the Administrative Agent, if reasonably satisfied that the applicable certificate is correct, shall release the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor from its guarantee hereunder.
(c)    In connection with any termination or release pursuant to Section 5.16(a) or 5.16(b), the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Credit Party, at such Credit Party's expense, all documents that such Credit Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release.  Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 5.16(c) shall be without recourse to or warranty or representation by the Administrative Agent.
Section 5.17.  Additional Subsidiary Guarantors.  Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, additional Subsidiaries may be required to become Subsidiary Guarantors after the date hereof.  Upon execution and delivery by the Administrative Agent and a Subsidiary of a Supplement, any such Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, in each case, with the same force and effect as if originally named as such herein.  The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of the Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.  The rights and obligations of the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any Subsidiary as a party to this Agreement.
Section 5.18.  Enforcement of Guarantees.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Credit Document, no Guaranteed Party shall have any right to 

individually enforce any guarantee of any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under this Agreement may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Guaranteed Parties in accordance with the terms hereof.  Each Guaranteed Party, whether or not a party hereto or to the Credit Agreement, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the guarantees of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder, to have agreed to the provisions of this Section 5.18.
Section 5.19.  Certain Acknowledgments and Agreements.  Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby acknowledges the provisions of Sections 2.16 and 9.10 of the Credit Agreement and agrees to be bound by such provisions with the same force and effect, and to the same extent, as if such Subsidiary Guarantor were a party to the Credit Agreement.  Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that the provisions of Section 9.24 of the Credit Agreement shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to such Subsidiary Guarantor and, in furtherance thereof, makes each of the acknowledgements and agreements made in such Section by the Borrower.

Exhibit A to 
the Guarantee Agreement
SUPPLEMENT NO. __ dated as of [  ] to the Guarantee Agreement dated as of August [  ], 2013 (the “Guarantee Agreement”), among FACEBOOK, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the subsidiaries of the Borrower party thereto (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMCB”), as the Administrative Agent.
(A)    Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of August [  ], 2013 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Borrower, the Lenders party thereto and JPMCB, as the Administrative Agent.
(B)    Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings specified in the Credit Agreement or the Guarantee Agreement, as the context may require.
(C)    The Subsidiary Guarantors have entered into the Guarantee Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to extend credit to the Borrower.  Section 5.17 of the Guarantee Agreement provides that additional Subsidiaries may become Subsidiary Guarantors under the Guarantee Agreement by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement.  The undersigned Subsidiary (the “New Subsidiary”) is executing this Supplement to become a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Guarantee Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make Loans under the Credit Agreement and as consideration for Loans previously made.
Accordingly, the Administrative Agent and the New Subsidiary agree as follows:
Section 1.    In accordance with Section 5.17 of the Guarantee Agreement, the New Subsidiary by its signature below becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Guarantee Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a Subsidiary Guarantor, and the New Subsidiary hereby agrees to all the terms and provisions of the Guarantee Agreement applicable to it as a Subsidiary Guarantor thereunder.  Each reference to a "Subsidiary Guarantor" in the Guarantee Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Subsidiary.  The Guarantee Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
Section 2.    The New Subsidiary represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties that Section 1. the execution, delivery and performance by the New Subsidiary of this Supplement are within the New Subsidiary's corporate or other organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational and, 

if required, stockholder or other equityholder action, and that this Supplement has been duly executed and delivered by the New Subsidiary and is the legally valid and binding obligation of the New Subsidiary, enforceable against the New Subsidiary in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors' rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability, and Section 2. all representations and warranties as to such New Subsidiary set forth in each Credit Document are true and correct in all material respects (except insofar as such inaccuracy thereof would not be material and adverse to the creditworthiness of the Borrower or constitute a material breach of any Credit Document from the point of view of a Person extending credit to the Borrower as contemplated by the Credit Documents) on and as of the date hereof to the same extent as though made on and as of the date hereof, except in the case of any such representation and warranty that expressly relates to a prior date, in which case such representation and warranty was true and correct in all material respects (except insofar as such inaccuracy thereof would not be material and adverse to the creditworthiness of the Borrower or constitute a material breach of any Credit Document from the point of view of a Person extending credit to the Borrower as contemplated by the Credit Documents) on and as of such prior date; provided that, in each case, such materiality qualifier is not applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof.
Section 3.    This Supplement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same contract.  This Supplement shall become effective when the Administrative Agent shall have received a counterpart of this Supplement that bears the signature of the New Subsidiary and the Administrative Agent has executed a counterpart hereof.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Supplement by facsimile or other electronic imaging shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Supplement.
Section 4.    Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Guarantee Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
Section 5.    THIS SUPPLEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF.
Section 6.    In case any provision in or obligation hereunder shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and 

enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
Section 7.    All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 5.01 of the Guarantee Agreement.
Section 8.    The New Subsidiary agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for all actual and reasonable costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Supplement, including the preparation, execution and delivery thereof.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Subsidiary and the Administrative Agent have duly executed this Supplement to the Guarantee Agreement as of the day and year first above written.
