(Mexico, City time) three Business Days prior to the proposed date of that borrowing (or such shorter period acceptable to the Administrative Agent).  Each such notice will be effective upon receipt by Administrative Agent, will be irrevocable, and must specify the proposed Closing Date (which date shall be a Business Day prior to the Termination Date) and amount of the requested borrowing.  Except as otherwise agreed in a flow of funds memorandum in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (a “Funds Flow Memorandum”) on the Closing Date, each Lender shall provide Administrative Agent with immediately available funds covering that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of that borrowing so long as the applicable Lender has not received written notice that the conditions precedent set forth in Article XII with respect to that borrowing have not been satisfied.  Except as otherwise agreed in a Funds Flow Memorandum, after the Administrative Agent’s receipt of the proceeds of the applicable Loans from the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of those Loans available to the applicable Borrower on the Closing Date by transferring to the applicable Borrower immediately available funds equal to the proceeds received by the Administrative Agent. There shall be a single borrowing of the Loans hereunder. 
(b)Funding Losses.  In connection with each Loan, each Borrower shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend, and hold the Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless against any loss, cost, or expense actually incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of the failure to borrow any Loan on the date specified by the Borrower 
35
        

Representative in a Notice of Borrowing (other than as a result of any failure of any Lender to make such Loan to the extent required by this Agreement that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have resulted from gross negligence, willful misconduct, or bad faith of such Lender) (such losses, costs, or expenses, “Funding Losses”).  A certificate of the Administrative Agent or a Lender delivered to the Borrower Representative setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that the Administrative Agent or such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.2.2 shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Borrowers shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent or the Lender, as applicable, within 30 days of the date of its receipt of such certificate.
Section 1.3Commitments Several.  The failure of any Lender to make a requested Loan on any date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation (if any) to make a Loan on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan to be made by such other Lender.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Tranche A-1 Lenders, Tranche A-2 Lenders, Tranche B-1 Lenders and Tranche B-2 Lenders shall be relieved from their obligations to make Loans hereunder in case of failure by the Tranche C Lenders and Tranche D Lenders to make Tranche C Loans and Tranche D Loans in an aggregate principal amount of at least U.S.$4,000,000, hereunder.

Section 1.5Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions will apply for so long as that Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
(a)Any amount payable to a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, or otherwise and including any amount that would otherwise be payable to that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 7.5 but excluding Article VIII) will, in lieu of being distributed to that Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied as follows at such time or times as the Administrative Agent determines:  (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Agents under this Agreement; (ii) second, pro rata, to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; (iii) third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement; (iv) fourth, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Borrower or any Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and (v) fifth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction.  If any such payment is a prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans and made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 12.2 are satisfied, then that payment will be applied solely to prepay the Loans of all Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any Loans of any Defaulting Lender.
(b)If the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused that Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then that Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent determines is necessary in order for that Lender to hold those Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share (as determined pursuant to clause (a) of the definition of “Pro Rata Share”).  No Defaulting Lender will have any right to approve or disapprove any 
36
        

amendment, waiver, consent, or any other action the Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take under this Agreement (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 15.1) but any waiver, amendment, or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each directly affected Lender that affects a Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders will require the consent of that Defaulting Lender.
ARTICLE III

EVIDENCING OF LOANS
Section 1.1Notes. Each Tranche A-1 Loan shall be evidenced by a Tranche A-1 Note (which qualifies as a pagaré under Mexican law), executed by AgileThought Mexico as issuer and each Mexican Loan Party, por aval; (ii) each Tranche A-2 Loan shall be evidenced by a Tranche A-2 Note (which qualifies as a pagaré under Mexican law), executed by AgileThought Mexico as issuer and each Mexican Loan Party, por aval; (iii) each Tranche B-1 Loan shall be evidenced by a Tranche B-1 Note, executed  by Ultimate Holdings as issuer; (iv) each Tranche B-2 Loan shall be evidenced by a Tranche B-2 Note, executed  by Ultimate Holdings as issuer; (v) each Tranche C Loan shall be evidenced by a Tranche C Note, executed  by Ultimate Holdings as issuer; and (vi) each Tranche D Loan shall be evidenced by a Tranche D Note, executed  by Ultimate Holdings as issuer.

Each Loan and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 15.6) be represented by one or more Notes in such form payable to the payee named therein.  Each Lender shall be entitled to have its Notes substituted, exchanged or subdivided for Notes of lesser denominations in connection with a permitted assignment of all or any portion of such Lender’s Loans and Notes pursuant to Section 15.6.  In case of theft, partial or complete destruction or mutilation of any Note, the relevant Lender shall be entitled to request to the Borrowers, and the Borrowers shall promptly (but in any event within ten days of such notice) execute and deliver in lieu thereof a new Note, dated the same date as the lost, stolen, destructed or mutilated Note.
Section 1.2Recordkeeping. The Administrative Agent, on behalf of each Lender, shall record in its records, the date and amount of each Loan made by each Lender and each repayment or conversion (if permissible) thereof.  The aggregate unpaid principal amount so recorded will be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the principal amount of the Loans owing and unpaid.  The failure to so record any such amount or any error in so recording any such amount will not, however, limit or otherwise affect the Obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement or under any Note to repay the principal amount of the Loans under this Agreement, together with all interest accruing thereon.
ARTICLE IV

INTEREST
Section 1.1Interest Rates.
(a)(i) Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Tranche A-1 Loan for the period commencing on the date that Tranche A-1 Loan is made until that Tranche A-1 Loan is paid in full at a rate per annum equal to 11.00%; (ii) Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Tranche A-2 Loan for the period commencing on the date that Tranche A-2 Loan is made until that Tranche A-2 Loan is paid in full at a rate per annum equal to 17.41%; (iii) Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Tranche B-1 
37
        

Loan for the period commencing on the date that Tranche B-1 Loan is made until that Tranche B-1 Loan is paid in full at a rate per annum equal to 11.00%; (iv) Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Tranche B-2 Loan for the period commencing on the date that Tranche B-2 Loan is made until that Tranche B-2 Loan is paid in full at a rate per annum equal to 17.41%; (v) Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Tranche C Loan for the period commencing on the date that Tranche C Loan is made until that Tranche C Loan is paid in full at a rate per annum equal to 11.00%; and (vi) Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Tranche D Loan for the period commencing on the date that Tranche D Loan is made until that Tranche D Loan is paid in full at a rate per annum equal to 11.00%.
As between AgileThought Mexico and the Peso Lenders only, and for information purposes only, the interest rate applicable to the Peso Loans has been agreed giving due regard to factors that would make the rate the substantial equivalent to the interest rate applicable to the Dollar Loans. 
(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time an Event of Default exists, the interest rate applicable to each Loan will be increased by 2% during the existence of an Event of Default (and, in the case of Obligations not bearing interest, those Obligations will, during the existence of an Event of Default, bear interest at the highest interest rate applicable to the Loans plus 2%), but any such increase may be rescinded by Required Lenders, notwithstanding Section 15.1.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Sections 13.1.1 or 13.1.4, the increase provided for in this Section 4.1 will occur automatically.  In no event will interest payable by the Borrowers to any Lender under this Agreement exceed the maximum rate permitted under applicable law, and if any such provision of this Agreement is in contravention of any such law, then that provision will be deemed modified to limit that interest to the maximum rate permitted under that law.

38
        

not be so capitalized or added to the principal but shall instead remain payable in cash); provided, further that if a Default shall have occurred and be continuing on any date on which such interest is due, the Tranche A-1 Lenders shall be entitled to elect, by notice to the Borrower Representative, either to have such interest be capitalized and added to principal as set forth herein (in which case such payment shall be so capitalized and added to principal) or to require that it remain due and payable in cash (in which case such payment shall not be so capitalized or added to principal but shall instead remain payable in cash) and, in either case, such payment shall bear interest until paid in full as provided in Section 4.1.

Each such determination by the Tranche A-2 Lenders shall be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.  If requested by the Tranche A-2 Lenders, the Borrowers shall, within 15 days after such request, cause new Notes to be issued to the Tranche A-2 Lenders, duly executed and delivered by the Borrowers, evidencing the

Any interest not capitalized and added to principal pursuant to Section 4.2 shall continue to be payable in cash in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes, and if unpaid when due, shall bear interest at the applicable rate provided in Section 4.1.

In no event will any interest rate payable under this Agreement (including, without limitation, under Section 4.1 plus any other amounts paid in connection herewith), exceed the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction, in a final determination, deems applicable.  Borrowers and the Lenders, in executing and delivering this Agreement, intend legally to agree upon the rates of interest and manner of payment stated within this Agreement; provided that, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any such rate of interest or manner of payment exceeds the maximum allowable under applicable law, then, ipso facto, as of the date of this Agreement, each Borrower is and will be liable only for the payment of such maximum amount as is allowed by law, and payment received from such Borrower in excess of such legal maximum, whenever received, will be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Obligations to the extent of that excess.

47

In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 7.2.2 shall control and govern.
Section 1.3Due Date Extension.  If any payment of principal or interest with respect to any of the Loans, or of any fees, falls due on a day which is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the immediately following Business Day unless the result of that extension would cause such due date to occur in another calendar month, in which case such due date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day and, in the case of principal, additional interest shall accrue and be payable for the period of any such extension.
Section 1.4Setoff.  All payments made by Borrowers hereunder or under any Loan Documents shall be made without setoff, counterclaim, or other defense.  Each Borrower, for itself and each other Loan Party, agrees that each Agent and each Lender have all rights of set-off and bankers’ lien provided by applicable law, and in addition thereto, each Borrower, for itself and each other Loan Party, agrees that at any time any Event of Default exists, each Agent and each Lender may apply to the payment of any Obligations of each Borrower and each other Loan Party under this Agreement, whether or not then due, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts, or moneys of each Borrower and each other Loan Party then or thereafter with that Agent or that Lender.
Section 1.5Proration of Payments.  Except as provided in Section 2.5, if any Lender obtains any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of offset or otherwise), on account of principal of or interest on any Loan (but excluding (a) any payment pursuant to Section 8 or 15.6, or (b) payments of interest on any Affected Loan) in excess of its applicable Pro Rata Share of payments and other recoveries obtained by all Lenders on account of principal of and interest on the Loans, then held by them, then that Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans held by them as are necessary to cause that purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably with each of them, but 
48
        

if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from that purchasing Lender, then that purchase will be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of that recovery.
Section 1.6Taxes.
1.1.1The Loan Parties shall make all payments under this Agreement or under any Loan Documents without setoff, counterclaim, or other defense.  All payments under this Agreement or under the Loan Documents (including any payment of principal, interest, or fees and including, for the avoidance of doubt, any payment that results from the delivery of Conversion Payment Shares) to, or for the benefit, of any Person will be made by the Loan Parties free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for, or account of, any Taxes now or hereafter imposed by any taxing authority, except as required by applicable law.
1.1.2If Borrowers make any payment (including, for the avoidance of doubt, that results from the exercise of the conversion rights under Article XVIII) under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document in respect of which any Borrower is required by applicable law to deduct or withhold any Taxes, then (i) the Borrower shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from such payment the amount of such Taxes, (ii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority in accordance with applicable law and (iii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by such Borrower shall be increased such that after the reduction for the amount of Indemnified Taxes withheld (and any Indemnified Taxes withheld or imposed with respect to the additional payments required under this Section 7.6.2), the recipient of the payment receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding been made. To the extent Borrowers withhold any Taxes on payments under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, Borrowers shall deliver to Administrative Agent within 30 days after Borrowers have made payment to that taxing authority a receipt issued by that taxing authority (or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent) evidencing the payment of all amounts so required to be deducted or withheld from that payment.
1.1.3If any Lender or Agent or other recipient is required by law to make any payments of any Indemnified Taxes on or in relation to any amounts received or receivable under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, or any Indemnified Tax is assessed against a Lender or Agent or other recipient with respect to amounts received or receivable under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, Borrowers will indemnify that Person against (i) that Indemnified Tax and (ii) any Indemnified Taxes imposed as a result of the receipt of the payment under this Section 7.6.3.  A certificate prepared in good faith as to the amount of any such payment by that Lender or Agent or other recipient will, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive, and binding on all parties.
1.1.4Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 7.6.2 and 7.6.3, the Borrowers shall in no event be required to pay the Tranche B-1 Lender or the Tranche B-2 Lender additional amounts under clause (iii) of Section 7.6.2 with respect to U.S. federal withholding Taxes (“U.S. Withholding Tax Additional Amounts”) or to indemnify the Tranche B-1 Lender or the Tranche B-2 Lender under Section 7.6.3 against Indemnified Taxes that are U.S. federal withholding Taxes (“U.S. Withholding Tax Indemnity Payments”) to the extent the sum of any U.S. Withholding Tax Additional Amounts and any U.S. Withholding Tax Indemnity Payments paid by the Borrowers to the Tranche B-1 Lender and the Tranche B-2 Lender exceeds, in the aggregate, U.S.$250,000.
1.1.5 Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax with respect to payments made under this Agreement or any Loan Document 
49
        

shall use its best efforts to deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent, such properly and completed executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payment to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.
(b)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:
(A)  each Lender that is not a United States person within the meaning of Code Section 7701(a)(30) (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall use its best efforts to deliver to Borrower Representative and Administrative Agent on the earlier of (i) the date that is six (6) months after the Closing Date (or in the case of a Lender that is an Assignee, on the date of the assignment) and (ii) the date of delivery of Conversion Payment Shares, two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI or W-8IMY (or any successor or other applicable form prescribed by the IRS) for each such Lender and, as applicable, two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI, W-8IMY or W-9 (or any successor or other applicable form prescribed by the IRS) for each of its partners or other beneficial owners certifying to the entitlement to a complete exemption from, or reduction in, U.S. federal withholding tax on interest payments to be made under this Agreement or under any Loan Document, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction to be made.  If a Lender or one of its partners or other beneficial owners is claiming a complete exemption from withholding on interest pursuant to Code Sections 871(h) or 881(c), then that Lender shall deliver (along with two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, W8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable) a certificate in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Borrower Representative and Administrative Agent to the effect that such Person is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (any such certificate, a “Withholding Certificate”).  To the extent a Lender (or its partners or other beneficial owners, as applicable) would be entitled to claim a complete exemption from withholding on interest pursuant to Code Sections 871(h) or 881(c) with respect to payments received under this Agreement or under the Loan Documents, and such Lender takes any action that could reasonably be expected to result in the loss of such exemption, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay to such Lender amounts pursuant to Section 7.6 in excess of the maximum amount that the Borrowers would have been required to pay pursuant to the Laws in effect on the date of this Agreement had the Lender not taken such action.  In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall, from time to time after the Closing Date (or in the case of a Lender that is an Assignee, after the date of the assignment to that Lender) when a lapse in time (or change in circumstances occurs) renders the prior certificates delivered under this Agreement obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, use its best efforts to deliver to Borrower Representative and Administrative Agent two new and accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Forms W8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI, W-8IMY or W-9 (or any successor or other applicable forms prescribed by the IRS), and if applicable, a new Withholding Certificate, to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender (or its respective partner or other beneficial owner) to an exemption from, or reduction in, United States withholding tax on interest payments to be made under this Agreement or with 
50
        

respect to any Loan (or such Lender shall otherwise promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to deliver such forms and/or Withholding Certificate).   
(B) Each Lender that is not a Non-U.S. Lender shall provide two properly completed and duly executed copies of IRS Form W9 (or any successor or other applicable form) to Borrower Representative and Administrative Agent certifying that that Lender is exempt from United States backup withholding Tax.  To the extent that a form provided pursuant to this Section 7.6.5(b) is rendered obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect as result of change in circumstances with respect to the status of a Lender or Administrative Agent, then that Lender or Administrative Agent shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, deliver to Borrower Representative and, as applicable, Administrative Agent revised forms necessary to confirm or establish the entitlement to that Lender’s exemption from United States backup withholding Tax (or such Lender or Administrative Agent shall otherwise promptly notify the Borrower Representative and, as applicable, the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to deliver such forms).
1.1.6Each Lender shall indemnify Administrative Agent and hold Administrative Agent harmless for the full amount of any and all present or future Taxes and related liabilities (including penalties, interest, additions to Tax and expenses, and any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable to Administrative Agent under this Section 7.6) which are imposed on or with respect to principal, interest, or fees payable to that Lender under this Agreement and which are not paid by Borrowers pursuant to this Section 7.6, whether or not those Taxes or related liabilities were correctly or legally asserted.  This indemnification must be made within 30 days from the date Administrative Agent makes written demand therefor.
1.1.7If an Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrowers or with respect to which the Borrowers have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 7.6, then that Agent or that Lender, as applicable, shall pay over that refund to the Borrowers (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrowers under this Section 7.6 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to that refund), net of any Taxes imposed by reason of receipt of that refund and all out-of-pocket expenses of that Agent or that Lender, as applicable, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to that refund, which interest must be paid to the Borrowers).  Upon the request of any such Agent or any such Lender, Borrowers shall repay any amount paid to the Borrowers (plus any penalties, interest, or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to that Agent or that Lender in the event that Agent or that Lender is required to repay any such refund to any such Governmental Authority.  Nothing in this Section 7.6.7 is to be construed to require any Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information which it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.
1.1.8The Borrowers agree to pay to any Mexican Lender all applicable present and future value added taxes (Impuesto al Valor Agregado) in respect of any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including, without limitation, in respect of any capitalized interest under Section 4.2(a)(ii)).
1.1.9If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal income withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if that Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), then that Lender shall deliver to 
51
        

Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation only) at the time or times prescribed by law and at any other time or times reasonably requested by Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, the Lender granting the participation) all documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and all additional documentation reasonably requested by Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, the Lender granting the participation) as is necessary for Administrative Agent or Borrowers to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that that Lender has complied with that Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from that payment.  Solely for purposes of this Section 7.6.9, “FATCA” is deemed to include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
1.1.10For purposes of this Section 7.6, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 7.6 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction, or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
ARTICLE VIII

INCREASED COSTS
Section 1.1Increased Costs.
(a)If any Change in Law (i) imposes, modifies, or deems applicable any reserve (including any reserve imposed by the FRB), special deposit, or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with, or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender; (ii) subjects any Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (c) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its Loans, its Note(s) or its obligations to make Loans, or (iii) imposes on any Lender any other condition (other than Taxes) affecting its Loans, its Note(s), or its obligation to make Loans, and the result of anything described in clauses (i) through (iii) above is to increase the cost to (or to impose a cost on) that Lender of making or maintaining any Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by that Lender under this Agreement or under its Note(s) with respect thereto, then upon demand by that Lender (which demand must be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for that demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail, a copy of which must be furnished to Administrative Agent), Borrowers shall pay directly to that Lender such additional amount as will compensate that Lender for that increased cost or that reduction, so long as the applicable amounts have accrued on or after the day that is 180 days prior to the date on which that Lender first made demand therefor.
(b)If any Lender reasonably determines that any change in, or the adoption or phase-in of, any applicable law, rule, or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank, or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or the compliance by any Lender or any Person controlling any Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank, or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on that Lender’s or that controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of that Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to a level below that which that Lender or that controlling Person could have achieved but for that change, adoption, phase-in, or compliance (taking into consideration that Lender’s or that controlling Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount 
52
        

deemed by that Lender or that controlling Person to be material, then from time to time, upon demand by that Lender (which demand must be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for that demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail, a copy of which must be furnished to Administrative Agent), Borrowers shall pay to that Lender that additional amount as will compensate that Lender or that controlling Person for that reduction, so long as the applicable amounts have accrued on or after the day that is 180 days prior to the date on which that Lender first made demand therefor.
Section 1.2[Reserved].
Section 1.3Changes in Law Rendering Loans Unlawful.  If, after the date of this Agreement, any change in, or the adoption of any new, law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation of any applicable law or regulation by any Governmental Authority or other regulatory body charged with the administration thereof, makes it (or in the good faith judgment of any Lender causes a substantial question as to whether it is) unlawful for any Lender to make, maintain, or fund loans in Dollars, then that Lender shall promptly notify each of the other parties to this Agreement and that Lender will not be required to make or maintain any Loan in Dollars.
Section 1.4Right of Lenders to Fund through Other Offices.  Each Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill its commitment as to any Loan by causing a foreign branch or Affiliate of that Lender to make that Loan, but each such Loan will be deemed to have been made by that Lender and the obligation of Borrowers to repay that Loan will be to that Lender and will be deemed held by the Lender, to the extent of that Loan, for the account of that branch or Affiliate.
Section 1.5Mitigation of Circumstances; Replacement of Lenders.
(a)Each Lender shall promptly notify Borrower Representative and Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge that will result in, and will use reasonable commercial efforts available to it (and not, in that Lender’s sole judgment, otherwise disadvantageous to that Lender) to mitigate or avoid (i) any obligation by Borrowers to pay any amount pursuant to Section 7.6 or 8.1 or (ii) the occurrence of any circumstances described in Section 8.3 (and, if any Lender has given notice of any such event described in clauses (i) or (ii) and thereafter that event ceases to exist, that Lender shall promptly so notify Borrower Representative and Administrative Agent).  Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender shall designate a different funding office if that designation will avoid (or reduce the cost to Borrowers of) any event described in clauses (i) or (ii) and that designation will not, in that Lender’s sole judgment, be otherwise disadvantageous to that Lender.
(b)If Borrowers become obligated to pay additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to Section 8.1, or any Lender gives notice of the occurrence of any circumstances described in Section 8.3, or any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then Borrower Representative may designate another financial institution that is acceptable to Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion (a “Replacement Lender”) to purchase the Loans of that Lender and that Lender’s rights under this Agreement, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, that Lender, for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans payable to that Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest on those Loans and all accrued but unpaid fees owed to that Lender and any other amounts owed to that Lender under this Agreement and any other Loan Document, and to assume all the obligations of that Lender under this Agreement.  Upon any such purchase and assumption (pursuant to an Assignment Agreement), the applicable Lender will no longer be a party to this Agreement or have any rights under this Agreement (other than rights with respect to indemnities and similar rights applicable to that Lender prior to the date of that purchase and assumption) and will be relieved from all 
53
        

obligations to Borrowers under this Agreement, and the Replacement Lender will succeed to the rights and obligations of that Lender under this Agreement.
Section 1.6Conclusiveness of Statements; Survival of Provisions.  Determinations and statements of any Lender pursuant to Section 8.1 or 8.3 shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.  Lenders may use reasonable averaging and attribution methods in determining compensation under Section 8.1, and the provisions of such Section 8.1 will survive repayment of the Obligations, cancellation of any Note(s) and termination of this Agreement.
Section 1.7Funding Losses.  Each Borrower shall, upon demand by any Lender (which demand must be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for the amount being claimed, a copy of which must be furnished to Administrative Agent), indemnify that Lender against any net loss or expense (including amounts incurred to terminate, settle or re-establish hedging arrangements or related trading positions (irrespective of the currency thereof)) which that Lender sustains or incurs, as reasonably determined by that Lender, as a result of any failure of any Borrower to borrow any Loan on a date specified therefor in a notice of borrowing pursuant to this Agreement.  For this purpose, all notices to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement will be deemed to be irrevocable.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, none of the Agents will have any duty or responsibility except those expressly set forth in this Agreement, nor will any Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations, or liabilities are to be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against such Agent, as applicable.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement and in other Loan Documents with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead, that term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.
Section 1.2[Reserved].  
Section 1.3Delegation of Duties.  Each Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees, or attorneys-in-fact and is entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to those duties.

Section 1.4Exculpation of Agents.  None of the Agents and their respective directors, officers, employees, and agents (a) will be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except to the extent resulting from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth in this Agreement as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction), or (b) will 
85

None of the Agents is or will be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or to inspect the properties, books, or records of any of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates.
The duties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents are solely mechanical and administrative in nature. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to request written instructions, or clarification of any instruction, from the Required Lenders (or, if the relevant Loan Document stipulates the matter is a decision for any other Lender or group of Lenders, from that Lender or group of Lenders) as to whether, and in what manner, it should exercise or refrain from exercising any right, power, authority or discretion and the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may refrain from acting unless and until it receives those written instructions or that clarification.  In the absence of written instructions, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, may act (or refrain from acting) as it considers to be in the best interests of the Lenders.
The Agents are not obliged to expend or risk their own funds or otherwise
incur any financial liability in the performance of their respective duties, obligations or responsibilities or the exercise of any right, power, authority or discretion if they have grounds for believing the repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to such Agent against, or security for, such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to such Agent. The Agents shall not be responsible in any manner for the validity, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or the Loan Documents or any Collateral delivered, or for the value or collectability of any obligations or other instrument, if any, so delivered, or for any representations made or obligations assumed by any party other than the Agent.  The Agents shall not be bound to examine or inquire into or be liable for any defect or failure in the right or title of the grantors to all or any of the assets whether such defect or failure was known to the Agents or might have been discovered upon examination or inquiry and whether capable of remedy or not.

The Agents shall not be responsible for any unsuitability, inadequacy, expiration or unfitness of any security interest created hereunder or pursuant to any other security documents pertaining to this matter nor shall it be obligated to make any investigation into, and shall be entitled to assume, the adequacy and fitness of any security interest created hereunder or pursuant to any other security document pertaining to this matter.

86
        

The Agents shall be entitled to seek written directions from the Required Lenders prior to taking any action under this Agreement, any Collateral instrument or any of the Loan Documents.

Except with respect to its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, no Agent shall be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any security document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto.

No Agent shall have responsibility for or liability with respect to monitoring compliance of any other party to the Loan Documents or any other document related hereto or thereto.  The Agents have no duty to monitor the value or rating of any Collateral on an ongoing basis.

Whenever in the administration of the Loan Documents any Agent shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, such Agent (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, may conclusively rely upon instructions from the Required Lenders.

Money held by any Agent in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.  No Agent shall be under any liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing.

Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, no Agent shall have any duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto and no Agent shall be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral.  Each Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords similar collateral and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee.  

No Agent shall be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of such Agent, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.

87
        

thereto in order to carry out any fiduciary or trust obligation for the benefit of another, which in such Agent’s sole discretion may cause such Agent to be considered an “owner or operator” under the provisions of CERCLA or otherwise cause such Agent to incur liability under CERCLA or any other Federal, state or local law, such Agent reserves the right, instead of taking such action, to either resign as Agent or arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court-appointed receiver.

Each Agent reserves the right to conduct an environmental audit prior to foreclosing on any real estate Collateral or mortgage Collateral.  The Agents reserve the right to forebear from foreclosing in their own name if to do so may expose them to undue risk.

In no event shall any Agent be responsible or liable for any failure (e) or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, pandemics, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services. 

For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything contrary in any Loan Document, in the event of inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document, the terms in this Agreement shall prevail.

Each Agent may rely, and will be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, electronic mail message, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement, or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Borrowers), independent accountants, and other experts selected by such Agent.  Each Agent will be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless such Agent first receives all advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, confirmation from the Lenders of their obligation to indemnify such Agent against any and all liability and expense which might be incurred by such Agent by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.  Each Agent will in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders and each such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto will be binding upon each Lender.  For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 12, each Lender that has signed this Agreement will be deemed to have consented to, approved, or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless any Agent has received written notice from that Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto.
Section 1.6Notice of Default.  None of the Agents will be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default or Default except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to such Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless such Agent has received written notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing that Event of Default or Default and stating that that 
88
        

notice is a “notice of default.”  Each Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice.  Each Agent shall take all such actions with respect to each such Event of Default or Default as requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 13, but unless and until such Agent has received any such request, such Agent may (but will not be required to) take any action, or refrain from taking any action, with respect to any Event of Default or Default as such Agent deems advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.
Section 1.7Credit Decision.  Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agents has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any consent and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the Loan Parties, will be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Agent to any Lender as to any matter, including whether such Agent has disclosed material information in its possession.  Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon such Agent and based on documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition, and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrowers under this Agreement.  Each Lender also represents to each Agent that it will, independently and without reliance upon such Agent and based on documents and information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals, and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make all investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition, and creditworthiness of Borrowers.  Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required in this Agreement to be furnished to the Lenders by any Agent, such Agent will not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial or other condition or creditworthiness of any Borrower which may come into the possession of such Agent.
Section 1.8Indemnification.  Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, each Lender shall indemnify upon demand each Agent and its directors, officers, employees and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of Borrowers to do so), according to its applicable Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities, except that no Lender will be liable for any payment to any such Person of any portion of the Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined by a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the applicable Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  No action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders will be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 14.8.  Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse each Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs and Taxes) incurred by such Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to in this Agreement, to the extent that such Agent is not reimbursed for any such expenses by or on behalf of Borrowers.  The undertaking in this Section 14.8 will survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes, any foreclosure under, or modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the Collateral Documents, expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit, termination of this Agreement and the resignation or replacement of any Agent.
Section 1.9Agents in their Individual Capacity.  Each of the Persons serving as Collateral Agent and Administrative Agent and their respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Equity Interests in and 
89
        

generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Loan Parties and Affiliates as though such Person were not an Agent under this Agreement and without notice to or consent of any Lender.  Each Lender acknowledges that, pursuant to those activities, the Person serving as an Agent or its Affiliates might receive information regarding Borrowers or their Affiliates (including information that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of any Borrower or any such Affiliate) and acknowledges that none of the Agents will be under any obligation to provide any such information to them.  With respect to their Loans (if any), each of the Persons serving as Collateral Agent and Administrative Agent and their respective Affiliates have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though such Person were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include such Person and its Affiliates, to the extent applicable, in their individual capacities.
Section 1.10Successor Agents.  Any may resign as such upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders.  If any Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall, with (so long as no Event of Default exists) the consent of Borrower Representative (which may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint from among the Lenders a successor Agent for the Lenders.  If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of an Agent, such Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and Borrower Representative, a successor agent from among the Lenders.  Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent under this Agreement, that successor agent will succeed to all the rights, powers, and duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” or “Collateral Agent,” as applicable, will mean that successor agent, and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Agent will be terminated.  After any retiring Agent’s resignation under this Agreement as an Agent, the provisions of this Section 14.10 and Sections 15.5 and 15.17 will inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent under this Agreement.  If no successor agent has accepted appointment as successor agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation will nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Required Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the retiring Agent under this Agreement until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.
Section 1.11Collateral Matters.  Each Lender authorizes and directs Collateral Agent to enter into the Collateral Documents (other than the Mexican Collateral Agreements or the Mexican Collateral Amendment and Reaffirmation Agreements) for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders.  Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, any action taken by any Agent or Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by such Agent or Required Lenders of the powers set forth in this Agreement or therein, together with all other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, will be authorized by, and binding upon, all Lenders.  Collateral Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender to take any action with respect to any Collateral (other than Collateral located in Mexico) or Loan Documents (other than the Mexican Collateral Agreements or the Mexican Collateral Amendment and Reaffirmation Agreements) which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to this Agreement and the such other Loan Documents.  The Lenders irrevocably authorize Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to do any and all of the following:  (a) to release any Lien granted to or held by Collateral Agent under any Collateral Document (other than the Mexican Collateral Agreements) (i) upon Payment in Full; (ii) upon property sold or to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted under this Agreement (including the release of any Guarantor in connection with any such disposition); or (iii) subject to Section 15.1 if approved in writing by the Required Lenders; or (b) to subordinate its interest in any Collateral (other than Collateral located in Mexico) to any holder of a Lien on 
90
        

that Collateral which is permitted by Section 11.2(d) (it being understood that Collateral Agent may conclusively rely on a certificate from Borrower Representative in determining whether the Debt secured by any such Lien is permitted by Section 11.1(d)).  Upon request by Collateral Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to release, or subordinate its interest in, particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 14.11.
Section 1.12Restriction on Actions by Lenders.  Each Lender shall not, without the express written consent of each Agent, and shall, upon the written request of any Agent (to the extent it is lawfully entitled to do so), set-off against the Obligations, any amounts owing by that Lender to a Loan Party or any deposit accounts of any Loan Party now or hereafter maintained with that Lender.  Each Lender shall not, unless specifically requested to do so in writing by each Agent, take or cause to be taken any action, including the commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings, to foreclose any loan or otherwise enforce any security interest in any of the Collateral or to enforce all or any part of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.  All enforcement actions under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than the Mexican Collateral Agreements or the Mexican Collateral Amendment and Reaffirmation Agreements) against the Loan Parties or any third party with respect to the Obligations or the Collateral may be taken by only Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders or as otherwise permitted in this Agreement) or by their respective agents at the direction of such Agent.
Section 1.13Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.
1.1.1In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition, or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party (including any Insolvency Proceeding), Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan is then due and payable as expressed in this Agreement or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent has made any demand on Borrowers) may, by intervention in any such proceeding or otherwise, do any and all of the following:
(a)to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and Administrative Agent and its respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and Administrative Agent under Sections 5, 15.5 and 15.17) allowed in such judicial proceedings; and
(b)to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
1.1.2Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator, or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make all payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent consents to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 5, 15.5, and 15.17.
1.1.3Nothing contained in this Agreement will be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any 
91
        

plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “syndication agent,” “documentation agent,” “co-agent,” “book manager,” “lead manager,” “arranger,” “lead arranger” or “co-arranger,” if any, has any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility, or duty under this Agreement other than, in the case of any Lender, those applicable to all Lenders as such.  Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so identified has or is deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action under this Agreement.

(a)Notices and other communications to any Lender under this Agreement may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by Administrative Agent,  but the foregoing does not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Section 2.2 if that Lender has notified Administrative Agent and Borrower Representative that it is incapable of receiving notices under Section 2.2 by electronic communication.  Administrative Agent or any Loan Party may, in its respective sole discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it under this Agreement by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, and approval of any such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

Section 1.4Computations.  Where the character or amount of any asset or liability or item of income or expense is required to be determined, or any consolidation or other accounting computation is required to be made, for the purpose of this Agreement, that determination or calculation will, to the extent applicable and except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, be made in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied, but if Borrower Representative notifies Administrative Agent that Borrowers wish to amend any covenant in Sections 10 or 11.12 (or any related definition) to eliminate or to take into account the effect of any change in GAAP on the operation of that covenant (or if Administrative Agent notifies Borrower Representative that the Required Lenders wish to amend Sections 10 or 11.12 (or any related definition) for that purpose), then Borrowers’ compliance with that covenant will be determined on the basis of GAAP in effect immediately before the relevant change in GAAP became effective, until either the applicable notice under this Section 15.4 is withdrawn or the applicable covenant (or related definition) is amended in a manner satisfactory to Borrowers and the Required Lenders.
Section 1.5Costs, Expenses and Taxes.  Each Loan Party, jointly and severally, shall pay on demand all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each Agent (including Attorney Costs and Taxes) in connection with the preparation, execution, primary syndication, delivery and administration (including perfection and protection of any Collateral and the costs of IntraLinks (or other similar service), if applicable) of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all other documents provided for in this Agreement or delivered or to be delivered under or in connection with this Agreement (including any amendment, supplement, or waiver to any Loan Document), whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby are consummated, including, without limitation, all documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred pursuant to Section 10.2, and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs and any Taxes) incurred by any Agent and each Lender after an Event of Default in connection with the collection of the Obligations or the enforcement of this Agreement the other Loan Documents or any such other documents or during any workout, restructuring, or negotiations in respect thereof; provided however, that the Loan Parties shall not be liable for any stamp, documentary, recording, filing or similar Taxes that are Other 
94
        

Connection Taxes imposed with respect to an assignment of the Loans and Commitments (other than an assignment at the request of a Loan Party).  In addition, each Loan Party shall pay, and shall save and hold harmless each Agent and the Lenders from all liability for, any fees of Loan Parties’ auditors in connection with any reasonable exercise by such Agent and the Lenders of their rights pursuant to Section 10.2.  All Obligations provided for in this Section 15.5 will survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes and termination of this Agreement.
Section 1.6Assignments; Participations.
1.1.1Assignments.
(a)Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Persons (any such Person, an “Assignee”) all or any portion of that Lender’s Loans and Commitments, with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and, other than for any assignment to an Eligible Assignee and so long as no Event of Default exists, Borrower Representative (which consent of Borrower Representative may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  Except as Administrative Agent otherwise agrees, any such assignment must be in a minimum aggregate amount equal to U.S.$1,000,000 (which minimum will be U.S.$500,000 if the assignment is to an Affiliate of the assigning Lender) or, if less, the remaining Commitment and Loans held by the assigning Lender.  Borrowers and Administrative Agent will be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with the assigning Lender in connection with the interests so assigned to an Assignee until Administrative Agent has received and accepted an effective assignment agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit J (an “Assignment Agreement”) executed, delivered, and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto and a processing fee of U.S.$3,500.  For so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay to any assignee Lender amounts pursuant to Section 7.6 in excess of the amounts that the Borrowers would have been obligated to pay to the assigning Lender if the assigning Lender had not assigned such Loan to such assignee, unless the circumstances giving rise to such excess payment result from a Change in Law after the date of such assignment.  Any attempted assignment not made in accordance with this Section 15.6.1 will be treated as the sale of a participation under Section 15.6.2. 
(b)From and after the date on which the conditions described above have been met, (i) the Assignee will be deemed automatically to have become a party to this Agreement and, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned to that Assignee pursuant to the Assignment Agreement, will have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and (ii) the assigning Lender, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to that Assignment Agreement, will be released from its rights (other than its indemnification rights) and obligations under this Agreement.  Upon the request of the Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) pursuant to an effective Assignment Agreement, Borrowers shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent for delivery to the Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) one or more Notes in accordance with Section 3.1 to reflect the amounts assigned to that Assignee and the amounts, if any, retained by the assigning Lender.  Each such Note will be dated the effective date of the applicable assignment.  Upon receipt by Administrative Agent of any such Note, the assigning Lender shall return to Borrower Representative any applicable prior Note held by it.
(c)Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of that Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 15.6.1 will not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest.  No such pledge or assignment of a security interest will release a Lender from any of its obligations under this 
95
        

Agreement or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for that Lender as a party to this Agreement
1.1.2Participations.  Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more Persons participating interests in its Loans, Commitments or other interests under this Agreement (any such Person, a “Participant”), but solely to the extent that such Participant is not a Loan Party or an Affiliate of a Loan Party.  In the event of a sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant (a) that Lender’s obligations under this Agreement will remain unchanged for all purposes, (b) Borrowers and Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with that Lender in connection with that Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (c) all amounts payable by Borrowers will be determined as if that Lender had not sold that participation and will be paid directly to that Lender.  No Participant will have any direct or indirect voting rights under this Agreement except with respect to any event described in Section 15.1 expressly requiring the unanimous vote of all Lenders or, as applicable, all affected Lenders.  Each Lender agrees to incorporate the requirements of the preceding sentence into each participation agreement which that Lender enters into with any Participant.  Borrowers agree that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and payable (as a result of acceleration or otherwise), each Participant will be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement, but that right of set-off is subject to the obligation of each Participant to share with the Lenders, and the Lenders shall share with each Participant, as provided in Section 7.5.  Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 7.6 or 8 to the same extent as if it were a Lender (but no Participant will be entitled to any greater compensation pursuant to Section 7.6 and 8 than would have been paid to the participating Lender on the date of participation if no participation had been sold), and each Participant must comply with Section 7.6.4 as if it were an Assignee.
Section 1.7Register.   Administrative Agent shall maintain, and deliver a copy to Borrower Representative upon written request, a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered and accepted by it and register (the “Register”) for the recordation of names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount of (and stated interest on) the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time and whether that Lender is the original Lender or the Assignee.  No assignment will be effective unless and until the Assignment Agreement is accepted and registered in the Register.  All records of transfer of a Lender’s interest in the Register will be conclusive, absent manifest error, as to the ownership of the interests in the Loans.  Administrative Agent will not incur any liability of any kind with respect to any Lender with respect to the maintenance of the Register.  It is the parties’ intention that the Loans and Commitments be treated as registered obligations and in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code, and that the right, title, and interest of the Lenders in and to those Loans and Commitments be transferable only in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(b)Each Lender that sells a participation to a Participant shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of each Borrower, maintain at one of its offices a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each such Participant, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of (and stated interest on) the Loans owing to, such Participant (the “Participant Register”), but no Lender will be required 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 Loans, Commitments, or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that disclosure is required to establish that such a participation is in registered form (as described above). The entries in the Participant Register will be conclusive absent manifest error, and the applicable Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded 
96
        

in the Participant Register as the owner of that participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
Section 1.8GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
Section 1.9Confidentiality.  As required by federal law and Administrative Agent’s policies and practices, Administrative Agent may need to obtain, verify, and record certain customer identification information and documentation in connection with opening or maintaining accounts, or establishing or continuing to provide services.  Administrative Agent and each Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts (equivalent to the efforts Administrative Agent or that Lender applies to maintain the confidentiality of its own confidential information) to maintain as confidential all information provided to them by any Loan Party hereunder and designated as confidential, except that Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose any information as follows:  (a) to Persons employed or engaged by Administrative Agent or that Lender or that Lender’s Affiliates or Approved Funds in evaluating, approving, structuring, or administering the Loans and the Commitments, (b) to any assignee or participant or potential assignee or participant that has agreed to comply with the covenant contained in this Section 15.9 (and any such assignee or participant or potential assignee or participant may disclose any such information to Persons employed or engaged by them as described in clause (a) of this Section 15.9, (c) as required or requested by any federal or state regulatory authority or examiner, or any insurance industry association, or as reasonably believed by Administrative Agent or that Lender to be compelled by any court decree, subpoena, or legal or administrative order or process, but Administrative Agent or that Lender, as applicable, shall (i) use reasonable efforts to give the applicable Loan Party written notice prior to disclosing the information to the extent permitted by that requirement, request, court decree, subpoena, or legal or administrative order or process, and (ii) disclose only that portion of the confidential information as Administrative Agent or that Lender reasonably believes, or as counsel for Administrative Agent or that Lender, as applicable, advises Administrative Agent or that Lender, that it must disclose pursuant to that requirement, (d) as Administrative Agent or that Lender reasonably believes, or on the advice of Administrative Agent’s or that Lender’s counsel, is required by law, (e) in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under the Loan Documents or in connection with any litigation to which Administrative Agent or that Lender is a party, (f) to any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to that Lender, (g) to that Lender’s independent auditors and other professional advisors as to which that information has been identified as confidential, or (h) if that information ceases to be confidential through no fault of Administrative Agent or any Lender.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrowers consent to the publication by Administrative Agent or any Lender of a tombstone or similar advertising material relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and Administrative Agent reserves the right to provide to industry trade organizations information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements.  If any provision of any confidentiality agreement, non-disclosure agreement, or other similar agreement between any Borrower and any Lender conflicts with or contradicts this Section 15.9 with respect to the treatment of confidential information, then this Section 15.9 will supersede all such prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings between the parties.
Section 1.10Severability.  Whenever possible each provision of this Agreement is to be interpreted so as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, that provision will be ineffective to the extent of that prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of that provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.  All obligations of the Loan Parties and rights of the 
97
        

Agents and the Lenders, in each case, expressed in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document are in addition to, and not in limitation of, those provided by applicable law.
Section 1.11Nature of Remedies.  All Obligations of the Loan Parties and rights of Agents and the Lenders expressed in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document are in addition to and not in limitation of those provided by applicable law.  No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power, or privilege under this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege under this Agreement will preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege.

Section 1.17INDEMNIFICATION BY LOAN PARTIES.  In consideration of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Agents and the Lenders and the agreement to extend the Commitments provided under this Agreement, each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, exonerate, and hold harmless each Agent, each Lender and each of the officers, directors, employees, Affiliates, agents, and Approved Funds of each Agent and each Lender (each, a “Lender Party” or “Indemnitee”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses, including Attorney Costs (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by the Lender Parties or any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any tender offer, merger, purchase of Equity Interests, purchase of assets

or other similar transaction financed or proposed to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of any of the Loans; (b) the use, handling, release, emission, discharge, transportation, storage, treatment or disposal of any Hazardous Substance at any property owned or leased by any Loan Party; (c) any violation of any Environmental Laws with respect to conditions at any property owned or leased by any Loan Party or the operations conducted thereon; (d) the investigation, cleanup or remediation of offsite locations at which any Loan Party or their respective predecessors are alleged to have directly or indirectly disposed of Hazardous Substances; or (e) the execution, delivery, performance, or enforcement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any of the Lender Parties, in each case except for any such Indemnified Liabilities arising on account of the applicable Lender Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Neither any Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Loan Party arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Loan Parties, on the one hand, and the Agents and the Lenders, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor.  Neither any Agent nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to any Loan Party to review or inform any Loan Party of any matter in connection with any phase of any Loan Party’s business or operations.  Each Loan Party agrees, on behalf of itself and each other Loan Party, that neither any Agent nor any Lender has any liability to any Loan Party (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by any Loan Party in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission, or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that those losses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought.  No Lender Party will be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement.  No Lender Party will have any liability with respect to, and each Loan Party, on behalf of itself and each other Loan Party, hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue for, any special, punitive, exemplary, indirect, or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date).

Each Mexican Loan Party shall maintain such appointment until the satisfaction in full of all Obligations, except that if for any reason the Process Agent appointed hereby ceases to be able to act as such, then each Mexican Loan Party shall, by an instrument reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, appoint another Person in the Borough of Manhattan as such Process Agent subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent.  Each Mexican Loan Party covenants and agrees that it shall take any and all reasonable action, including the execution and filing of any and all documents, that may be necessary to continue the designation of the Process Agent pursuant to this paragraph in full force and effect and to cause the Process Agent to act as such.

ARTICLE XVI

JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY
Section 1.1Joint and Several Liability
1.1.1Each Loan Party and each Person comprising a Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that all of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, conditions, agreements, and other terms contained in this Agreement are applicable to and binding upon each Person comprising a Loan Party unless expressly otherwise stated in this Agreement.
1.1.2Each Loan Party is jointly and severally liable for all of the Obligations of each other Loan Party, regardless of which Loan Party actually receives the proceeds or other benefits of the Loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement or the manner in which Loan Parties, any Agent, or any Lender accounts therefor in their respective books and records.
1.1.3Each Loan Party acknowledges that it shall enjoy significant benefits from the business conducted by each other Loan Party because of, inter alia, their combined ability to bargain with other Persons including without limitation their ability to receive the Loans and other credit extensions under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents which would not have been available to any Loan Party acting alone.  Each Loan Party has determined that it is in its best interest to procure the credit facilities contemplated under this Agreement, with the credit support of each other Loan Party as contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
1.1.4Each of the Agents and the Lenders have advised each Loan Party that it is unwilling to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and make available the credit facilities extended hereby or thereby to any Loan Party unless each Loan Party agrees, among other things, to be jointly and severally liable for the due and proper payment of the Obligations of each other Loan Party.  Each Loan Party has determined that it is in its best interest and in pursuit of its purposes that it so induce the Lenders to extend credit pursuant to this Agreement and the other documents executed in connection with this Agreement (a) because of the desirability to each Loan Party of the credit facilities under this Agreement and the interest rates and the modes of borrowing available under this Agreement and under those other documents; (b) because each Loan Party might engage in transactions jointly with other Loan Parties; and (c) because each Loan Party might require, from time to time, access to funds under this Agreement for the purposes set forth in this Agreement.  Each Loan Party, individually, expressly understands, agrees, and acknowledges that the credit facilities contemplated under this Agreement would not be made available on the terms of this Agreement in the absence of the collective credit of all the Loan Parties, and the joint and several liability of all the Loan Parties.  Accordingly, each Loan Party acknowledges that the benefit of the accommodations made under 
101
        

this Agreement to the Loan Parties, as a whole, constitutes reasonably equivalent value, regardless of the amount of the indebtedness actually borrowed by, advanced to, or the amount of credit provided to, or the amount of collateral provided by, any one Loan Party.
1.1.5To the extent that applicable law otherwise would render the full amount of the joint and several obligations of any Loan Party under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents invalid or unenforceable, such Person’s obligations under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents shall be limited to the maximum amount that does not result in any such invalidity or unenforceability, but each Loan Party’s obligations under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents shall be presumptively valid and enforceable to their fullest extent in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof, as if this Section 16 were not a part of this Agreement.
1.1.6To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment under this Section 16 of all or any of the Obligations (a “Joint Liability Payment”) that, taking into account all other Joint Liability Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Loan Party, exceeds the amount that Loan Party would otherwise have paid if each Loan Party had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by those Joint Liability Payments in the same proportion that such Person’s Allocable Amount (as determined immediately prior to those Joint Liability Payments) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each Loan Party as determined immediately prior to the making of those Joint Liability Payments, then, following payment in full in cash of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification Obligations not then asserted) and the termination of the Commitments, that Loan Party shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Loan Party for the amount of that excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to the applicable Joint Liability Payments.  As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any Loan Party is equal to the maximum amount of the claim that could then be recovered from that Loan Party under this Section 16 without rendering that claim voidable or avoidable under § 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, or similar statute or common law.
1.1.7Each Loan Party assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of each other Loan Party, and any and all endorsers and/or guarantors of any instrument or document evidencing all or any part of each other Loan Party’s Obligations, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment by each other Loan Party of its Obligations, and each Loan Party agrees that neither any Agent nor any Lender has or shall have any duty to advise that Loan Party of information known to any Agent or any Lender regarding any such condition or any such circumstances or to undertake any investigation not a part of its regular business routine.  If any Agent or any Lender, in its discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to a Loan Party, neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to update any such information or to provide any such information to that Loan Party or any other Person on any subsequent occasion.
1.1.8Subject to Section 15.1, Administrative Agent upon written direction from the Required Lenders is hereby authorized to, at any time and from time to time, to do any and all of the following:  (a) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, renew, extend, accelerate, or otherwise change the time for payment of, or other terms relating to, Obligations incurred by any Loan Party, otherwise modify, amend or change the terms of any promissory note or other agreement, document or instrument now or hereafter executed by any Loan Party and delivered to Administrative Agent or any Lender; (b) accept partial payments on an Obligation incurred by any Loan Party; (c) take and hold security or collateral for the payment of an Obligation incurred by any Loan Party under this Agreement or for the payment of any 
102
        

guaranties of an Obligation incurred by any Loan Party or other liabilities of any Loan Party and exchange, enforce, waive, and release any such security or collateral; (d) in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, apply any such security or collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof; and (e) with the prior consent of the Lenders, settle, release, compromise, collect, or otherwise liquidate an Obligation incurred by any Loan Party and any security or collateral therefor in any manner, without affecting or impairing the obligations of any other Loan Party.  In accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Administrative Agent has the exclusive right to determine the time and manner of application of any payments or credits, whether received from a Borrower or any other source, and any such determination shall be binding on each Loan Party.  In accordance with the terms of this Agreement, all such payments and credits may be applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to any of an Obligation incurred by any Loan Party as Administrative Agent determines in its discretion without affecting the validity or enforceability of the Obligations of any other Loan Party.  Nothing in this Section 16.1.8 modifies any right of any Loan Party or any Lender to consent to any amendment or modification of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof.
1.1.9Each Loan Party hereby agrees that, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, its obligations under this Agreement are and shall be unconditional, irrespective of (a) the absence of any attempt to collect an Obligation incurred by any Loan Party from any Loan Party or any guarantor or other action to enforce the same; (b) failure by Collateral Agent or Lenders, as applicable, to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for an Obligation incurred by any Loan Party; (c) any Insolvency Proceeding by or against any Loan Party, or any Agent’s or any Lender’s election in any such proceeding of the application of § 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; (d) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by any Loan Party as debtor-in-possession under § 364 of the Bankruptcy Code; (e) the disallowance, under § 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of any Agent’s or any Lender’s claim(s) for repayment of any of an Obligation incurred by any Loan Party; or (f) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor unless that legal or equitable discharge or defense is that of a Loan Party in its capacity as a Loan Party.
1.1.10Any notice given by Borrower Representative under this Agreement shall constitute and be deemed to be notice given by all Loan Parties, jointly and severally.  Notice given by any Agent or any Lender to Borrower Representative under this Agreement or pursuant to any other Loan Documents in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or of any applicable other Loan Document shall constitute notice to each Loan Party.  The knowledge of any Loan Party shall be imputed to all Loan Parties and any consent by Borrower Representative or any Loan Party shall constitute the consent of, and shall bind, all Loan Parties.
1.1.11This Section 16 is intended only to define the relative rights of Loan Parties and nothing set forth in this Section 16 is intended to or shall impair the obligations of Loan Parties, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents.  Nothing contained in this Section 16 limits the liability of any Loan Party to pay the credit facilities made directly or indirectly to that Loan Party and accrued interest, fees, and expenses with respect thereto for which that Loan Party is primarily liable.
1.1.12The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification under this Section 16 constitute assets of each Loan Party to which any such contribution and indemnification is owing.  The rights of any indemnifying Loan Party against the other Loan Parties under this Section 16 shall be exercisable upon the full and payment of the Obligations, and the termination of the Commitments.
103
        

1.1.13No payment made by or for the account of a Loan Party, including, without limitation, (a) a payment made by that Loan Party on behalf of an Obligation of another Loan Party, or (b) a payment made by any other Person under any guaranty, shall entitle that Loan Party, by subrogation or otherwise, to any payment from that other Loan Party or from or out of property of that other Loan Party and that Loan Party shall not exercise any right or remedy against that other Loan Party or any property of that other Loan Party by reason of any performance of that Loan Party of its joint and several obligations hereunder, until, in each case, the termination of the Commitments, the expiration, termination, or Cash Collateralization of all Letters of Credit, and Payment in Full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification Obligations not then asserted).
ARTICLE XVII
APPOINTMENT OF BORROWER REPRESENTATIVE
1.1.1Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably (until Payment in Full or a change pursuant to Section 17.1.4) appoints and constitutes Borrower Representative as its agent to request and receive the proceeds of advances in respect of the Loans (and to otherwise act on behalf of that Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) from the Lenders in the name or on behalf of that Loan Party.  Administrative Agent may disburse those proceeds to the bank account of Borrower Representative (or any other Borrower) without notice to any other Borrower or any other Loan Party.
1.1.2Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably (until Payment in Full or a change pursuant to Section 17.1.4) appoints and constitutes the Borrower Representative as its agent to (a) receive statements of account and all other notices from Administrative Agent with respect to the Obligations or otherwise under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (b) execute and deliver Compliance Certificates and all other notices, certificates and documents to be executed and/or delivered by any Loan Party under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; and (c) otherwise act on behalf of that Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
1.1.3The authorizations contained in this Section 17 are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until Payment in Full or a change pursuant to Section 17, and Administrative Agent may rely on any notice, request, information supplied by the Borrower Representative, every document executed by the Borrower Representative, every agreement made by the Borrower Representative or other action taken by the Borrower Representative in respect of any Borrower or other Loan Party as if the same were supplied, made or taken by that Borrower or Loan Party.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the failure of one or more Borrowers or other Loan Parties to join in the execution of any writing in connection with this Agreement will not relieve any Borrower or other Loan Party from obligations in respect of that writing.
1.1.4No purported termination of or change in the appointment of Borrower Representative as agent will be effective without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent.
ARTICLE XVIII

In order to exercise its conversion rights under this Section 18.1, a Lender must provide written notice (a “Maturity Conversion Notice”), which shall be irrevocable, to Ultimate Holdings on or prior to the second Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Conversion Date specifying the percentage of the Outstanding Obligations due to such Lender that the Lender is electing to convert into Conversion Payment Shares pursuant to this Section 18.1.  
Section 1.2Early Conversion.

The Company shall provide written notice to the Lenders of the Offering Conversion Date on or prior to the second Business Day immediately preceding such date. In order to exercise its conversion rights under this Section 18.2, a Lender must provide written notice (an “Offering Conversion Notice”), which shall be irrevocable, to Ultimate Holdings on or prior to the second Business Day immediately preceding the applicable Offering Conversion Date specifying the percentage of the Outstanding Obligations due to such Lender that the Lender is electing to convert into Conversion Payment Shares pursuant to this Section 18.2.

In order to exercise its conversion rights under this Section 18.2, a Lender must provide written notice (an “Optional Conversion Notice”), which shall be irrevocable, to Ultimate Holdings on or prior to the second Business Day immediately preceding the applicable Optional Conversion Date specifying the percentage of the Outstanding Obligations due to such Lender that the Lender is electing to convert into Conversion Payment Shares pursuant to this Section 18.2. 
Section 1.3Limitation on Delivery of Conversion Payment Shares. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (a) the aggregate number of Conversion Payment Shares issued pursuant to Section 18.1 and 18.2 shall be limited to the Conversion Cap, with a pro rata portion (based on the portion of the aggregate Outstanding Obligations due to such Lender) of such Conversion Cap being applicable to each converting Lender on a Maturity Conversion Date, for purposes of Section 18.1, the Offering Conversion Date, for purposes of Section 18.2.1, or the Optional Conversion Date, for purposes of Section 18.2.2, and any portion of the Conversion Cap not utilized on the Applicable Conversion Date by non-converting Lenders shall be re-allocated pro rata among the converting Lenders, (b) no Conversion Payment Shares shall be issued to any officer, director (including any director that is an Affiliate of a Lender), employee or consultant if such issuance would constitute a discounted issuance of Common Stock pursuant to Rule 5635(c) of the Nasdaq Stock Market and (c) no Conversion Payment Shares shall be issued to any Lender to the extent such issuance would constitute a change of control pursuant to Rule 5635(b) of the Nasdaq Stock Market (or such similar rules of the Applicable Exchange), and, in each case, the portion of the Outstanding Obligations with respect to which Conversion Payment Shares cannot be delivered shall be deemed to not have been converted; provided, that the foregoing limitations in clauses (a), (b) and (c) shall not apply to the extent that Ultimate Holdings receives the Requisite Shareholder Approval.
Section 1.4Conversions Generally. Upon a Converting Lender’s receipt of the Conversion Payment Shares required to be delivered to such Converting Lender under Section 
105
        

18.1 or Section 18.2, the Outstanding Obligations owed to such Converting Lender that have been converted shall be deemed to have Paid in Full.
Section 1.5Mergers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Ultimate Holdings may not consummate any (i) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock (other than changes resulting from a subdivision or combination), (ii) any consolidation, merger or combination or similar transaction involving Ultimate Holdings, (iii) any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of the consolidated assets of Ultimate Holdings and Ultimate Holdings’ Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety, or (iv) any statutory share exchange (any such event, a “Merger Event”) unless the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Company”), if not Ultimate Holdings, shall expressly assume all of the obligations of Ultimate Holdings under this Article XVIII; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 18.5 shall be construed to permit any event or transaction otherwise prohibited under this Agreement. 
Section 1.6Effect of Recapitalizations, Reclassifications and Changes of the Common Stock. 
1.1.1In the case of: any Merger Event as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof), at and after the effective time of such Merger Event, (a) the right to convert Outstanding Obligations in Conversion Payment Shares shall be changed into a right to convert such Outstanding Obligations into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive (the “Reference Property,” with each “unit of Reference Property” meaning the kind and amount of Reference Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock is entitled to receive) upon such Merger Event and (b) unless context requires otherwise, all references to “Common Stock” hereunder shall be deemed references to the Reference Property. At and after the effective time of any such Merger Event, any shares of Common Stock that Ultimate Holdings would have been required to deliver upon conversion of the Outstanding Obligations under Article XVIII shall instead be deliverable in Reference Property.
1.1.2If the Merger Event causes the Common Stock to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election), then (i) the Reference Property into which the Outstanding Obligations will be convertible shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration actually received by the holders of Common Stock, and (ii) the unit of Reference Property for purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph shall refer to the consideration referred to in clause (i) attributable to one share of Common Stock.
1.1.3If, in the case of any Merger Event, the Reference Property includes shares of stock, securities or other property or assets of a Person other than Ultimate Holdings or the successor or purchasing corporation (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, cash paid by such surviving company, successor or purchaser corporation, as the case may be, in such Merger Event), then such other Person shall execute such documentation with respect to the conversion of Outstanding Obligations as the Lenders and Ultimate Holdings in good faith determine to be commercially reasonable. The definitive agreement with respect to any Merger Event shall include such additional provisions as are reasonably necessary to protect the conversion rights of the Lenders under this Article XVIII.
1.1.4If the Successor Issuer (if not Ultimate Holdings) following a Merger Event is a Public Issuer, such Successor Issuer shall grant to each Lender registration rights (to 
106
        

be effective upon such Lender becoming a Converting Lender) that are no less favorable to such Lender than any registration rights granted to any other Person in connection with such Merger Event. If the Successor Issuer (if not Ultimate Holdings) following a Merger Event is not a Public Issuer, such Successor Issuer shall grant each Lender registration rights (to be effective upon such Lender becoming a Converting Lender) that are no less favorable to such Lender than any registration rights granted in connection with such Merger Event to any other holder of the shares; provided that in no event shall such registration rights be less favorable to any Lender than the registration rights set forth in any Registration Rights Agreement then in effect. Following the consummation of any Merger Event in which Ultimate Holdings is not the Successor Issuer, all references in this Article XVIII to Ultimate Holdings shall be deemed replaced with references to the Successor Issuer.
1.1.5Ultimate Holdings shall provide written notice of any Merger Event to the Lenders as promptly as practicable after the public announcement thereof.
1.1.6Ultimate Holdings shall not become a party to any Merger Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 18.6 and this Section 18.6 shall similarly apply to successive Merger Events. 
Section 1.7Delivery of Conversion Payment Shares.  Ultimate Holdings shall deliver any Conversion Payment Shares required to be delivered to a Lender under this Article XVIII no later than the second Business Day immediately following the Applicable Conversion Date. The Conversion Payment Shares will be issued in book-entry form and issued and delivered to the transfer agent for Ultimate Holdings and identified by restricted legends identifying the Conversion Payment Shares as restricted securities. A Converting Lender shall be deemed to be the holder of record of such Conversion Payment Shares as of 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date the Conversion Payment Shares are issued and delivered to the Converting Lender.
Section 1.8Reservation of Shares; Listing.  Ultimate Holdings shall, as of the applicable Closing Date, authorize and reserve 2,098,545 shares of Common Stock for issuance upon conversion of Outstanding Obligations as Conversion Payment Shares and shall at all times keep reserved a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to satisfy the conversion of all Outstanding Obligations (after taking into account the Conversion Cap, to the extent then applicable) based on an Applicable Price determined as if the last calendar day of the preceding calendar quarter was an Applicable Conversion Date. No later than the Business Day immediately following any Applicable Conversion Date, Ultimate Holdings shall take all action necessary, including amending its governing documents, to authorize and reserve sufficient Conversion Payment Shares such that (a) all Conversion Payment Shares required to be delivered by Ultimate Holdings in connection with such Applicable Conversion Date (1) shall be duly and validly authorized, reserved and available for issuance on or prior to the date such Conversion Payment Shares are delivered to any Converting Lender in accordance with Section 18.4 and (2) shall, upon issuance, be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free of restrictions on transfer other than restrictions on transfer under applicable securities laws and (b) the issuance of such Conversion Payment Shares shall not be subject to any preemptive or similar rights. On or prior to the applicable Closing Date, Ultimate Holdings shall provide notice to the Nasdaq Capital Market with respect to the listing of a number of shares of Common Stock to satisfy the conversion of all Outstanding Obligations (after taking into account the Conversion Cap, to the extent then applicable). Ultimate Holdings shall use its best efforts to effect and maintain the listing on a Permitted Exchange of its Common Stock.
Section 1.9Calculations.  Ultimate Holdings and any Converting Lenders shall, acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, jointly determine the number of Conversion Payment Shares with respect to any Conversion; provided that if Ultimate Holdings 
107
        

and such Converting Lenders cannot promptly agree on the number of Conversion Payment Shares with respect to such Conversion then they shall use their good faith efforts to jointly appoint a Calculation Agent to determine such number with respect to such Conversion; provided, further, that any failure to agree or related delay in the calculation of the number of Conversion Payment Shares shall extend the time provided for delivery of the any disputed number of Conversion Payment Shares (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not the number of Conversion Payment Shares not in dispute) until the second Business Day following the determination of the calculation as provided in this Section 18.9, and such extension or delay in payment with respect to the disputed portion of Conversion Payment Shares shall not be deemed a breach of any provision of this Agreement. If Ultimate Holdings and any Converting Lenders are not able to promptly agree on a Calculation Agent with respect to a Conversion, then Ultimate Holdings shall appoint one Calculation Agent and the Converting Lenders shall appoint a second Calculation Agent and such appointed Calculation Agents shall each promptly determine the number of Conversion Payment Shares for such Conversion and the Conversion Payment Shares for such Conversion shall be deemed to be the average of the amounts determined by such Calculation Agents or, if only one Calculation Agent provides a determination of the Conversion Payment Shares prior to the date Conversion Payment Shares are required to be delivered in connection with the relevant Conversion, the number of Conversion Payment Shares determined by such Calculation Agent. Any determination of the Conversion Payment Shares pursuant to the terms of this Section 18.9 shall be final absent manifest error. All calculations under this Article XVIII shall be rounded to the nearest 1/10,000th, with 0.00005 rounded up to 0.0001; provided that the number of Conversion Payment Shares to be delivered to any Converting Lender shall be rounded up the nearest whole number.
Section 1.10Conversion Information.  Ultimate Holdings shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly provide any information to any Lender, or any Calculation Agent for purposes of Section 18.9, that such Lender or Calculation Agent determines in good faith to be reasonably necessary to make any calculations under this Article XVIII.  
Section 1.11Taxes. Ultimate Holdings shall pay any and all transfer, stamp and similar Taxes imposed by, or levied by or on behalf of, any governmental authority or agency having the power to tax that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of the Conversion Payment Shares to any Converting Lender in connection with any Conversion. For the avoidance of doubt, Ultimate Holdings shall not be responsible for any such transfer, stamp and similar Taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of the Conversion Payment Shares to any Person that is not the Converting Lender, including any nominee, assignee or transferee of the Converting Lender, if such Taxes would not have been imposed or be payable had the Conversion Payment Shares been issued in the name of the Converting Lender.
Section 1.12Peso Loans.  Conversions of Outstanding Obligations hereunder shall be made by reference to the Dollar amount thereof.  In the case of any Outstanding Obligations denominated in Pesos, the Dollar amount thereof shall be determined by reference to the Conversion Rate as of the relevant Applicable Conversion Date.

“Scheduled Trading Day” means any day that is scheduled to be a Trading Day on the principal U.S. national or regional securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or, if the Common Stock is not then listed on a U.S. national or regional securities exchange, on the principal other market on which the Common Stock is then traded.

(b)If, in connection with any Disposition of any Collateral permitted under the terms of the First Lien Documents (other than an Enforcement), the First Lien Agent, for itself or on behalf of any of the First Lien Creditors, releases any of its Liens on any part of the Collateral, other than in connection with the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, then the Liens, if any, of the Second Lien Agents and each other Second Lien Creditor on such Collateral shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released (excluding any Lien on any portion of the proceeds of such Collateral remaining after the Discharge of First Lien Obligations).  The Second Lien Agents, for their own behalf and on behalf of any such Second Lien Creditor, as the case may be, promptly shall execute and deliver to the First Lien Agent or the applicable Credit Party such termination statements, releases and other documents as the First Lien Agent may request to effectively confirm such release.
(c)Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations shall occur, the Second Lien Agents, for their own behalf and on behalf of the Second Lien Creditors, hereby irrevocably constitute and appoint the First Lien Agent and any officer or agent of the First Lien Agent, with full power of substitution, as their true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the First Lien Agent or such holder or in the First Lien Agent’s own name, from time to time in the First Lien Agent’s discretion exercised in good faith, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of 
14

this Section 5.1, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary to accomplish the purposes of this Section 5.1, including any endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release. If in order to carry out the provisions of this Section 5.1 a special power of attorney is required according to applicable law, the Second Lien Creditors and/or the Second Lien Agents, as the case may be, hereby agree to grant an irrevocable power of attorney to the First Lien Agent, using the form provided by the First Lien Agent.
1.2.Insurance.
(a)Unless and until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, subject to the terms of, and the rights of the Credit Parties under, the First Lien Documents, (i) the First Lien Creditors shall have the sole and exclusive right to adjust settlement for any insurance covering the Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding (or any deed in lieu of condemnation) affecting such Collateral; (ii) all proceeds of any such award (or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) if in respect of the Collateral and to the extent required by the First Lien Documents shall be paid to the First Lien Agent for the benefit of the First Lien Creditors pursuant to the terms of the First Lien Documents and thereafter, if the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, and subject to the rights of the Credit Parties under the Second Lien Documents, to the Second Lien Agents for the benefit of the Second Lien Creditors to the extent required under the Second Lien Documents and then, to the extent no Second Lien Obligations are outstanding, to the owner of the subject property, such other Person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, and (iii) if the Second Lien Agents or any Second Lien Creditor shall, at any time, receive any proceeds of any such insurance or any such award or payment with respect to Collateral in contravention of this Agreement, it shall segregate and hold in trust and forthwith pay such proceeds over to the First Lien Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.2.
(b)To effectuate the foregoing, the Agents shall each receive separate lender’s loss payable endorsements naming themselves as loss payee and additional insured, as their interests may appear, with respect to policies which insure Collateral hereunder.
1.3.Amendments to First Lien Documents and Second Lien Documents; Refinancing.
(a)Subject to Sections 5.3(c) and 5.3(d), the First Lien Agent and the Second Lien Agents shall each use good faith efforts to notify the other party of any written amendment or modification to the First Lien Loan Agreement or the Second Lien Loan Agreement, but the failure to do so shall not create a cause of action against the party failing to give such notice or create any claim or right on behalf of any third party.
(b)Subject to Sections 5.3(c), the First Lien Documents may be amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms, and the First Lien Loan Agreement may be Refinanced, in each case, without notice to, or the consent of the Second Lien Agents or the Second Lien Creditors, all without affecting the Lien subordination or other provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the holders of such Refinancing debt bind themselves in a writing addressed to the Second Lien Creditors, to the terms of this Agreement.
(c)Without the consent of the Second Lien Agents, the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Creditors will not amend, restate, amend and restate, modify, supplement, or otherwise change the terms of (or Refinance) the terms of the First Lien Documents, if 
15

the effect of such amendment, restatement, amendment and restatement, modification, supplement, or change (or Refinancing) is to (i) impose any restrictions on the incurrence of Debt under the Second Lien Documents that are greater than the restrictions set forth in the Existing First Lien Loan Agreement, (ii) impose any restrictions on the payment by the Borrowers of principal or interest in respect of the Second Lien Obligations that are greater than the restrictions set forth in the Existing First Lien Loan Agreement and this Agreement, (iii) impose any restriction on the conversion rights under Article XVIII of the Second Lien Loan Agreement or (iv) contravene the provisions of this Agreement.  
(d)Without the consent of the First Lien Agent, the Second Lien Agents and the Second Lien Creditors will not amend, restate, amend and restate, modify, supplement, or otherwise change the terms of (or Refinance) the terms of the Second Lien Documents, other than any such amendment, restatement, amendment and restatement, modification, waiver, supplement or change to (1) extend or waive the date scheduled for payment of any principal of or interest on the Second Lien Loans, (2) reduce the principal amount of any Second Lien Loans or the rate of interest thereon, (3) release any Second Lien Borrower or Guarantor from its obligations under the Second Lien Documents, (4) release all or any part of the Collateral granted under the Second Lien Documents to secure the Second Lien Obligations, and (5) waive, amend, modify or supplement any existing representation and warranty, covenant or event of default provision under the Second Lien Documents (other than this Agreement), to make such provision less restrictive to the Second Lien Borrower or Guarantor.
1.4.Bailees for Perfection.
(a)Each Agent agrees to hold that part of the Collateral that is in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) to the extent that possession or control thereof is taken to perfect a Lien thereon (such Collateral, which shall include without limitation Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts subject to Account Agreements, and the Collateral held in such Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts, collectively being the “Pledged Collateral”) (i) in the case of the First Lien Agent, for itself and as the collateral agent for the First Lien Creditors under the First Lien Documents or, in the case of the Second Lien Agents, for their benefit and as the collateral agent for the Second Lien Creditors under the Second Lien Documents, and (ii) as bailee for the benefit of or agent on behalf of the other Agent and other Creditors (such bailment and agency being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-301(a)(2), 9-313(c), 9-104, 9-105, 9-106 and 9-107 of the UCC and to establish “control” within the meaning of Section 9-314 of the UCC) and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted under the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents, respectively, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.4.
(b)Neither Agent shall have any obligation whatsoever to the other Agent, to any First Lien Creditor, or to any Second Lien Creditor to ensure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by the applicable Credit Party or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.4.  The duties or responsibilities of the respective Agents under this Section 5.4 shall be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as bailee and agent in accordance with this Section 5.4 (including, without limitation, paragraph (e) below) and delivering the Pledged Collateral or proceeds thereof upon a Discharge of Second Lien Obligations or Discharge of First Lien Obligations, as the case may be, as provided in paragraph (d) below.
(c)Upon the Discharge of First Lien Obligations or the Discharge of Section 5.4 Lien Obligations, as the case may be, the Agent under the credit facility 
16

which has been discharged shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any) together with any necessary endorsements, first, to the other Agent to the extent the other (First Lien or Second Lien, as applicable) Obligations remain outstanding, and second, to the Borrowers to the extent no First Lien Obligations or Second Lien Obligations remain outstanding (in each case, so as to allow such Person to obtain possession or control of such Pledged Collateral).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any obligation of the Agent under the credit facility which has been discharged to make any delivery to the other Agent under this Section 5.4 or Section 5.5 is subject to (i) the order of any court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) any automatic stay imposed in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding.
(d)Subject to the terms of this Agreement, so long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred, the First Lien Agent shall be entitled to deal with the Pledged Collateral or Collateral within its “control” in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and other First Lien Documents, as if the Liens of the Second Lien Agents and the Second Lien Creditors did not exist (it being understood that the First Lien Agent shall have the sole exclusive right to exercise control under Account Agreements until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations).
(e)In furtherance of this Section 5.4, after the Discharge of the First Lien Obligations has occurred, the First Lien Agent shall cooperate with the Second Lien Agents' efforts to obtain Account Agreements with respect to Deposit Accounts and Securities comprising the Collateral, and to the extent, but only to the extent, the First Lien Agent has the authority to do so under any applicable Account Agreement with respect to any Deposit Account or Securities Account constituting part of the Collateral, to notify the applicable depositary bank or securities intermediary under such control agreements that the relevant Second Lien Agent is the “lender representative,” “notice agent” or similar party, as applicable, entitled to take action thereunder with respect to each Deposit Account or Securities Account that is subject to an Account Agreement in favor of the First Lien Agent.
(f)Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Section 5.4, neither Agent acting pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall have by reason of the First Lien Documents, the Second Lien Documents, this Agreement or any other document a fiduciary relationship in respect of the other Agent, any First Lien Creditors or any Second Lien Creditors.
1.5.When Discharge of First Lien Obligations and Discharge of Second Lien Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred.  If concurrently with the Discharge of First Lien Obligations or the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations, the Borrowers thereafter enter into any Refinancing of any First Lien Obligation or Second Lien Obligation, as the case may be, which Refinancing is permitted hereunder and by the First Lien Documents or the Second Lien Documents (but only whichever is not being so Refinanced), then such Discharge of First Lien Obligations or the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken as a result of the occurrence of such Discharge of First Lien Obligations or the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations), and, from and after the date on which the New Debt Notice (as defined below) is delivered to the appropriate Agent in accordance with the next sentence, the obligations under such Refinancing shall automatically be treated as First Lien Obligations or Second Lien Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the First Lien Agent or the Second Lien Agent, as the case may be, under such new First Lien Documents or Second Lien Documents shall be the First Lien Agent or the Second Lien Agent for all purposes of this Agreement.  Upon receipt of a notice (the “New Debt Notice”) stating that the Borrowers and, if applicable, the other Credit Parties, have entered into new First Lien Documents or new Second Lien Documents 
17

(which notice shall include a complete copy of the relevant new documents and provide the identity of the new Agent, such agent, the “New Agent”), the other Agent shall promptly (a) enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the Borrowers or such New Agent shall reasonably request in order to provide to the New Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the then terms of this Agreement and (b) deliver to the New Agent any Pledged Collateral held by it together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the New Agent to obtain control of such Pledged Collateral).  The New Agent shall agree in a writing addressed to the other Agent and the First Lien Creditors or the Second Lien Creditors, as the case may be, to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.
6.Insolvency Proceedings.
1.1.Filing Motions.  Each Second Lien Agent agrees for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Creditor that, until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, no Second Lien Creditor shall, in or in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding, take any action or support any other Person in taking any action with respect to the Collateral or the validity or enforceability of any of the First Lien Documents or any of the First Lien Obligations thereunder, including by filing any pleadings or motions or taking any position at any hearing or proceeding of any nature, that (i) violates, or is prohibited by, this Section 6 (or would, in the absence of an Insolvency Proceeding, otherwise violate or be prohibited by this Agreement), (ii) asserts any right, benefit or privilege that arises in favor of the Second Lien Agents or Second Lien Creditors, in whole or in part, as a result of their interest in the Collateral or from any Lien of Second Lien Agents on the Collateral (unless the assertion of such right is expressly permitted by this Agreement) or (iii) relates in any way to the determination of any Liens or claims held by the First Lien Agent (including the validity and enforceability thereof) or any other First Lien Creditor or the value of any claims of such parties under Section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.
1.2.DIP Financing.
(a)If any First Lien Borrower or any other Credit Party shall be subject to any Insolvency Proceeding at any time prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, and the First Lien Agent or the First Lien Lenders shall seek to provide any First Lien Borrower or any other Credit Party with, or consent to a third party providing, any financing under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or consent to any order for the use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any foreign Insolvency Proceeding or under a court order in respect of measures granted with similar effect under any Insolvency Proceeding (each, a “First Lien DIP Financing”) constituting Collateral with such First Lien DIP Financing to be secured by all or any portion of the Collateral (including assets that, but for the application of Section 552 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any foreign Insolvency Proceeding would be Collateral), then the Second Lien Agents, on their own behalf and on behalf of the Second Lien Creditors, agree that they will raise no objection and will not support any objection to such First Lien DIP Financing or use of cash collateral or to the Liens securing the same on the grounds of a failure to provide “adequate protection” for the Liens of the Second Lien Agents and Second Lien Creditors securing the Second Lien Obligations or on any other grounds (and without the consent of the First Lien Agent will not request any adequate protection solely as a result of such First Lien DIP Financing or use of cash collateral that is Collateral) except that if the First Lien Agent is granted Liens on additional collateral as adequate protection with respect to Collateral, the Second Lien Agents may request second priority Liens to those of the First Lien Agent on the same additional collateral as adequate protection of its interests in the Collateral.
18

(b)All Liens granted to the First Lien Agent in any Insolvency Proceeding, whether as adequate protection or otherwise, are intended by the parties to be and shall be deemed to be subject to the lien priorities described in Section 2 of this Agreement and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement.  
1.3.Adequate Protection.  Each Second Lien Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Creditors, agrees that none of them shall contest (or support any other Person contesting):
(i)any request by the First Lien Agent or the First Lien Creditors for adequate protection with respect to the Collateral; or
(ii)any objection by the First Lien Agent or the First Lien Creditors to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the First Lien Agent or the First Lien Creditors claiming a lack of adequate protection with respect to the Collateral.
1.4.Avoidance Issues.  If any First Lien Creditor is required in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of a Credit Party any amount paid in respect of the First Lien Obligations, as the case may be (a “Recovery”), then such First Lien Creditor shall be entitled to a reinstatement of the First Lien Obligations, as the case may be, with respect to all such recovered amounts.  If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of the parties hereto from such date of reinstatement.  The Second Lien Creditors agree that none of them shall be entitled to benefit from any avoidance action affecting or otherwise relating to any distribution or allocation made in accordance with this Agreement, whether by preference or otherwise, it being understood and agreed that the benefit of such avoidance action otherwise allocable to them shall instead be allocated and turned over by the Second Lien Creditors for application in accordance with the priorities set forth in this Agreement.
1.5.Reorganization Securities.  If, in any Insolvency Proceeding, Debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor are distributed pursuant to a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, both on account of First Lien Obligations and on account of Second Lien Obligations, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the First Lien Obligations and on account of the Second Lien Obligations are secured by Liens upon the same property, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the Debt obligations so distributed, to the Liens securing such Debt obligations and the distribution of proceeds thereof. 
1.6.Post-Petition Interest  Neither the Second Lien Agents nor any other Second Lien Creditor shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the First Lien Agent or any First Lien Creditor for allowance in any Insolvency Proceeding of First Lien Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Lien securing any First Lien Creditor’s claim, without regard to and ignoring the existence of the Lien of the Second Lien Agents on behalf of the Second Lien Creditors on the Collateral and the Second Lien Obligations.
1.7.Waiver.  Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the Second Lien Agents, for their own behalf and on behalf of the Second Lien Creditors, agree that none of them (i) will assert or enforce any claim under Section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any successor provision) senior to or on a parity with the First Lien Agent’s Liens on any Collateral for costs or expenses of preserving or disposing of any Collateral and (ii) waives any claim it may now or hereafter have arising out of the election by any First Lien Creditor of the 
19

application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any successor provision) with respect to any Collateral.
1.8.Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification.  The First Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the First Lien Creditors, and the Second Lien Agents, for their own behalf and on behalf of the Second Lien Creditors, acknowledge and intend that the grants of Liens pursuant to the Second Lien Documents and the First Lien Documents constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens, and because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the First Lien Obligations are fundamentally different from the Second Lien Obligations and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in an Insolvency Proceeding.  To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the First Lien Creditors and the Second Lien Creditors in respect of the Collateral constitute claims in the same class (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the First Lien Creditors and the Second Lien Creditors hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of First Lien Obligations and Second Lien Obligations against the Credit Parties with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Collateral is, the First Lien Creditors shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest, fees or expenses that is available from the Collateral for the First Lien Creditors, with such other Second Lien Creditors hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the First Lien Creditors amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the aggregate recoveries.
1.9.Asset Dispositions in an Insolvency Proceeding.  Until Discharge of First Lien Obligations, neither the Second Lien Agents nor any other Second Lien Creditor shall, in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, oppose any Disposition of any Collateral that is supported by the First Lien Creditors (or any portion of the process related thereto), and the Second Lien Agents and each other Second Lien Creditor will be deemed to have consented under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (and otherwise) to any sale of any Collateral supported by the First Lien Creditors and to have released their Liens on such assets; provided that to the extent the proceeds of such Collateral are not applied to reduce First Lien Obligations pursuant to and in accordance with Section 4, the Second Lien Agents shall retain a Lien on such proceeds in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
1.10.Enforceability.  This Agreement shall be applicable both before and after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding and all converted or succeeding cases in respect thereof, the relative rights of Creditors in or to any distributions from or in respect of any Collateral or Proceeds of Collateral shall continue after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding.  Accordingly, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 6.8 hereof), are intended to be and shall be enforceable under Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.
1.11.Relief from Automatic Stay.  Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the Second Lien Agents agree, for their own behalf and on behalf of the other Second Lien Creditors, that none of them will seek relief from the automatic stay or from any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding or take any action in derogation thereof (including opposing any request by any First Lien Creditor to seek relief from the automatic stay), in each case in respect of any Collateral, without the prior written consent of the First Lien Agent.
1.12.Other Matters.  To the extent that the Second Lien Agents or any Second Lien Creditor has or acquires rights under Section 362, Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to any of the Collateral, the Second Lien Agents agree, for their own behalf 
20

and on behalf of the other Second Lien Creditors not to assert any of such rights without the prior written consent of the First Lien Agent; provided that if requested by the First Lien Agent, the Second Lien Agents shall timely exercise such rights in the manner requested by the First Lien Agent, including any rights to payments in respect of such rights.
7.Reliance; Waivers, Etc.
1.1.Reliance.  Other than reliance on the terms of this Agreement, each Second Lien Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Creditors, acknowledges that it and such Second Lien Creditors have, independently and without reliance on the First Lien Agent or any First Lien Creditors, and based on documents and information deemed by them appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into each of the Second Lien Documents and be bound by the terms of this Agreement, and they will continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under the Second Lien Documents or this Agreement..
1.2.No Warranties or Liability.  The Second Lien Agents, on their own behalf and on behalf of the Second Lien Creditors, acknowledge and agree that each of the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Creditors have made no express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectability or enforceability of any of the First Lien Documents, the ownership of any Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Creditors will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans and extensions of credit under the First Lien Documents in accordance with law and as they may otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate.  The First Lien Agent and the First Lien Creditors shall have no duty to the Second Lien Agents or any of the Second Lien Creditors to act or refrain from acting in a manner which allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of an event of default or default under any agreements of any Credit Party (including the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents), regardless of any knowledge thereof which they may have or be charged with.
1.3.No Waiver of Lien Priorities.
(a)No right of the First Lien Agent or the First Lien Creditors to enforce any provision of this Agreement or any First Lien Document shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of any Credit Party or by any act or failure to act by the First Lien Agent or any First Lien Creditor or by any noncompliance by any Person with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Agreement or any of the First Lien Documents, regardless of any knowledge thereof which the First Lien Agent or the First Lien Creditors, or any of them, may have or be otherwise charged with.
(b)Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph (but subject in all cases to the provisions of Section 5.3), the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Creditors may, at any time and from time to time in accordance with the First Lien Documents and applicable law, without the consent of, or notice to, the Second Lien Agents or the Second Lien Creditors, without incurring any liabilities to such Persons and without impairing or releasing the Lien priorities and other benefits provided in this Agreement (even if any right of subrogation or other right or remedy is affected, impaired or extinguished thereby) do any one or more of the following:
(i)change the manner, place or terms of payment or change or extend the time of payment of, or amend, renew, exchange, increase or alter, the terms of any of the First Lien Obligations, as applicable or any Lien or guaranty thereof or any liability of any Credit Party, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in 
21

respect thereof (including any increase in or extension of the applicable obligations, without any restriction as to the tenor or terms of any such increase or extension) or otherwise amend, renew, exchange, extend, modify or supplement in any manner any Liens held by the First Lien Agent or any rights or remedies under any of the First Lien Documents;
(ii)sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon, enforce or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any part of the Collateral (except to the extent provided in this Agreement) or any liability of any Credit Party or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof;
(iii)settle or compromise any obligation or any other liability of any Credit Party or any security therefor or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof and apply any sums by whomsoever paid and however realized to any liability in any manner or order that is not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement; and
(iv)exercise or delay in or refrain from exercising any right or remedy against any security or any Credit Party or any other Person, elect any remedy and otherwise deal freely with the Credit Parties.
1.4.Obligations Unconditional.  All rights, interests, agreements and obligations of the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Creditors and the Second Lien Agents and the Second Lien Creditors, respectively, hereunder shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:
(a)any lack of validity or enforceability of any First Lien Documents or any Second Lien Documents;
(b)except, in each case, as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other terms of, all or any of the First Lien Obligations or Second Lien Obligations, or any amendment or waiver or other modification, including any increase in the amount thereof, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, of the terms of any First Lien Document or any Second Lien Document;
(c)except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, any exchange of any security interest in any Collateral or any other collateral, or any amendment, waiver or other modification, whether in writing or by course of conduct or otherwise, of all or any of the First Lien Obligations or Second Lien Obligations or any guaranty thereof;
(d)the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of any Credit Party; or
(e)any other circumstances which otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, (i) any Credit Party in respect of the First Lien Agent, the First Lien Obligations, any First Lien Creditor, the Second Lien Agents, the Second Lien Obligations, or any Second Lien Creditor, or (ii) any First Lien Creditor in respect of this Agreement, or (iii) any Second Lien Creditor in respect of this Agreement.

This is a continuing agreement of Lien subordination and the First Lien Creditors and the Second Lien Creditors may continue, at any time and without notice to the other Agent, to extend credit and other financial accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of the Borrowers in reliance hereon.

No amendment, modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement by the First Lien Agent or the Second Lien Agents shall be deemed to be made unless the same shall be in writing signed on behalf of each party hereto or its authorized agent and each waiver, if any, shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific instance involved and shall in no way impair the rights of the parties making such waiver or the obligations of the other parties to such party in any other respect or at any other time.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall have no right to consent to or approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement.
1.4.Information Concerning Financial Condition of the Credit Parties.  The Second Lien Creditors shall be responsible for keeping themselves informed of (a) the financial condition of the Credit Parties and all endorsers and/or guarantors and of the Second Lien Obligations and (b) all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Second Lien Obligations.  Neither the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Creditors shall have any duty to advise the other of information known to it or them regarding such condition or any such circumstances or otherwise.  In the event that either the First Lien Agent or any of the First Lien Creditors undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to any of the others, it or they shall be under no obligation:

23

the Second Lien Creditors and the Second Lien Agents shall be subrogated to the rights of the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Creditors; provided, however, that the Second Lien Agents, on their own behalf and on behalf of the Second Lien Creditors, hereby agree not to assert or enforce all such rights of subrogation they may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred.  The First Lien Creditors acknowledge and agree that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets received by the Second Lien Agents or the Second Lien Creditors that are paid over to the First Lien Agent or the First Lien Creditors pursuant to this Agreement shall not reduce any of the Second Lien Obligations.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.5, neither the Second Lien Agents nor any of the Second Lien Creditors shall have any claim against any of the First Lien Agent or the First Lien Creditors for any impairment of any subrogation rights herein granted to the Second Lien Creditors.

In lieu of such invalid or unenforceable provision, the parties hereto will negotiate in good faith to add automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible.
