(e)    If, as a result of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding with respect to the Borrower, Revolving Loans are not made pursuant to Section 2.2(d) in an amount sufficient to repay any amounts owed to the Swingline Lender in respect of any outstanding Swingline Loans, or if the Swingline Lender is otherwise precluded for any reason from giving a notice on behalf of the Borrower as provided for hereinabove, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to have sold without recourse, representation or warranty (except for the absence of Liens thereon created, incurred or suffered to exist by, through or under the Swingline Lender), and each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased and hereby agrees to purchase, a participation in such outstanding Swingline Loans in an amount equal to its Ratable Share of the unpaid amount thereof together with accrued interest thereon.  Upon one Business Day’s prior notice from the Swingline Lender, each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) will make available to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office an amount, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, equal to its respective participation.  To the extent the Lenders have made such amounts available to the Administrative Agent as provided hereinabove, the Administrative Agent will make the aggregate of such amounts available to the Swingline Lender in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.  In the event any such Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s participation as provided in this Section 2.2(e), the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the date such amount is required to be made available for the account of the Swingline Lender until the date such amount is made available to the Swingline Lender at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three Business Days and thereafter at the Adjusted Base Rate plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swingline Lender in connection with the foregoing.  Promptly following its receipt of any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender will pay to each Lender that has acquired a participation therein such Lender’s Ratable Share of such payment.
(f)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the obligation of each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) to make Revolving Loans for the purpose of repaying any Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.2(d) and each such Lender’s obligation to purchase a participation in any unpaid Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.2(e) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance or event whatsoever, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against the Swingline Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of any Default or Event of Default, (iii) 

 29
11863223v8 24740.00050

the failure of the amount of such Borrowing of Revolving Loans to meet the minimum Borrowing amount specified in Section 2.2(a), or (iv) the failure of any conditions set forth in Section 3.2 or elsewhere herein to be satisfied.
2.3    Disbursements; Funding Reliance; Domicile of Loans.
(a)    The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of each Borrowing it makes in accordance with the terms of any written instructions from any Authorized Officer of the Borrower, provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated under any circumstances to forward amounts to any account not listed in an Account Designation Letter.
(b)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent its Ratable Share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.2(b) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if any Lender has not in fact made its Ratable Share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the Adjusted Base Rate.  If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period.  If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan made on the applicable Borrowing Date and such payment shall absolve any obligation of the Borrower in respect of any demand made under this Section in respect of such Loan.  Any payment by the Borrower under this Section 2.3(b) shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against any Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.
(c)    The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.1(c) are several and not joint.  The failure of any Lender to make any such Loan, fund its participation or to make any such payment on any date shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation, if any, hereunder to do so on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, fund its participation or to make any such payment required hereunder.
(d)    Each Lender may, at its option, make and maintain any Loan at, to or for the account of any of its Lending Offices, provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan to or for the account of such Lender in accordance with the 

 30
11863223v8 24740.00050

terms of this Agreement.
2.4    Evidence of Debt; Notes.
(a)    Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to the applicable Lending Office of such Lender resulting from each Credit Extension made by such Lending Office of such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lending Office of such Lender in respect of its Loans from time to time under this Agreement.
(b)    The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 10.6(c), and a subaccount for each Lender, in which Register and subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount of each such Loan, the Type of each such Loan and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the date and amount of each applicable L/C Disbursement made under a Letter of Credit, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder in respect of each such Loan, (iv) the amount of any Reimbursement Obligation or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender and the Issuing Banks and (v) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s Ratable Share thereof.
(c)    The entries made in the Register and subaccounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.4(b) (and, if consistent with the entries of the Administrative Agent, the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.4(a)) shall be conclusive evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such account, such Register or such subaccount, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) its Obligations under this Agreement.
(d)    The Loans made by each Lender shall, if requested by any Lender (which request shall be made to the Administrative Agent), be evidenced by a Note, executed by the Borrower and payable to such Lender.  Each Note shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and shall be subject to the provisions hereof and thereof.
2.5    Letters of Credit.
(a)    Syndicated Letters of Credit.  
(i)    General.  Each Lender agrees, on and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to Issue Letters of Credit as Syndicated Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower in Dollars from time to time during the Availability Period.  Absent the prior written consent of each Issuing Bank, no Syndicated Letter of Credit may be Issued that would vary the several and not joint nature of the obligations of the Issuing Banks thereunder as provided in the next succeeding sentence.  Each Syndicated Letter of Credit shall be Issued by all of the Issuing Banks acting through the L/C Agent, at the time of Issuance as a single multi-bank letter of credit, but the obligation of each Issuing Bank thereunder shall be several and not joint, in the amount of its Ratable Share of the Stated Amount of such 

 31
11863223v8 24740.00050

Syndicated Letter of Credit.
(ii)    Notice of Issuance.  To request the Issuance of a Syndicated Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall hand deliver (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the L/C Agent) to the L/C Agent and the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders) at least three Business Days in advance of the requested date of Issuance (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the L/C Agent) a notice in a form reasonably acceptable to the L/C Agent (a “Syndicated Letter of Credit Notice”) requesting the Issuance of a Syndicated Letter of Credit, or identifying the Syndicated Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed, extended or increased, as the case may be, and specifying the date of Issuance (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Syndicated Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with Section 2.5(a)(iii)), the amount of such Syndicated Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and the terms and conditions of (and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew, extend or increase, as the case may be) such Syndicated Letter of Credit, it being understood and agreed that Syndicated Letters of Credit may be extended and renewed in accordance with Section 2.5(a)(iii).  If requested by the L/C Agent, the Borrower shall submit a letter of credit application on the L/C Agent’s standard form (with such changes as the L/C Agent shall reasonably deem appropriate) in connection with any request for a Syndicated Letter of Credit.  In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application submitted by the Borrower to the L/C Agent relating to any Syndicated Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.
(iii)    Expiration of Syndicated Letters of Credit.  Each Syndicated Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the earlier of (i) the close of business on the date one year after the date of the Issuance of such Syndicated Letter of Credit or (ii) the Final Maturity Date; provided, however, that at the Borrower’s request a Syndicated Letter of Credit shall provide by its terms, and on terms reasonably acceptable to the L/C Agent, for renewal for successive periods of one year or less (but not beyond the Final Maturity Date) unless and until the L/C Agent shall have delivered prior written notice of nonrenewal to the beneficiary of such Syndicated Letter of Credit no later than the time specified in such Syndicated Letter of Credit (which the L/C Agent shall do only if (A) the L/C Agent has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to Issue such Syndicated Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof, or (B) the L/C Agent has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the applicable non-extension notice date from the Administrative Agent that (1) the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) one or more of the applicable conditions under Section 3.2 (other than the delivery of a Letter of Credit Notice) is not then satisfied).  The L/C Agent shall promptly provide a copy of any such notice to the Borrower.
(iv)    Obligation of Lenders.  The obligation of any Issuing Bank under any Syndicated Letter of Credit shall be several and not joint and shall be in an amount equal to such Issuing Bank’s Ratable Share of the aggregate Stated Amount of such Syndicated 

 32
11863223v8 24740.00050

Letter of Credit at the time such Syndicated Letter of Credit is Issued, and each Syndicated Letter of Credit shall expressly so provide.  No increase of Commitments under Section 2.21 or assignment of Commitments under Section 2.20 or Section 10.6 shall change or affect the liability of any Issuing Bank under any outstanding Syndicated Letter of Credit until such Syndicated Letter of Credit is amended giving effect to such increase, assignment or reallocation, as the case may be.  The failure of any Issuing Bank to make any L/C Disbursement in respect of any Syndicated Letter of Credit on any date shall not relieve any other Issuing Bank of its corresponding obligation, if any, hereunder to do so on such date, but no Issuing Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Issuing Bank to make its L/C Disbursement in respect of any Syndicated Letter of Credit.
(v)    Issuance Administration.  Each Syndicated Letter of Credit shall be executed and delivered by the L/C Agent in the name and on behalf of, and as attorney-in-fact for, each Issuing Bank, and the L/C Agent shall act under each Syndicated Letter of Credit, and each Syndicated Letter of Credit shall expressly provide that the L/C Agent shall act, as the agent of each such Issuing Bank to (i) execute and deliver such Syndicated Letter of Credit, (ii) receive drafts, other demands for payment and other documents presented by the beneficiary under such Syndicated Letter of Credit, (iii) determine whether such drafts, demands and documents are in compliance with the terms and conditions of such Syndicated Letter of Credit, (iv) notify such Issuing Bank and the Borrower that a valid drawing has been made and the date that the related L/C Disbursement is to be made and (v) exercise all rights held by the issuer of a letter of credit under the documents for which such Syndicated Letter of Credit shall provide credit enhancement (or designate any Person as its representative for all such purposes under such documents); provided that the L/C Agent shall have no obligation or liability for any L/C Disbursement under such Syndicated Letter of Credit (other than as an Issuing Bank), and each Syndicated Letter of Credit shall expressly so provide.  Each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints and designates the L/C Agent as its attorney-in-fact, acting through any duly authorized officer, to execute and deliver in the name and on behalf of such Issuing Bank each Syndicated Letter of Credit to be Issued by such Issuing Bank hereunder and to take such other actions contemplated by this Section 2.5(a)(v).  Promptly upon the request of the L/C Agent, each Issuing Bank will furnish to the L/C Agent such additional powers of attorney or other evidence as any beneficiary of any Syndicated Letter of Credit may reasonably request in order to demonstrate that the L/C Agent has the power to act as attorney-in-fact for such Issuing Bank to execute and deliver such Syndicated Letter of Credit.
(vi)    Disbursement Procedures.  The L/C Agent shall, within a reasonable time following its receipt thereof (and, in any event, within any specific time specified in the text of the relevant Syndicated Letter of Credit), examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under any Syndicated Letter of Credit.  The L/C Agent shall promptly after such examination and before such L/C Disbursement notify each applicable Issuing Bank and the Borrower of such demand for payment.  With respect to any demand for payment made under a Syndicated Letter of Credit which the L/C Agent has informed the applicable Issuing Banks is valid, each such Issuing Bank will promptly make an L/C Disbursement in respect of such Syndicated Letter of Credit in accordance with the amount 

 33
11863223v8 24740.00050

of its liability under such Syndicated Letter of Credit and this Agreement, such L/C Disbursement to be made to the account of the L/C Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Issuing Banks.  The L/C Agent will make such L/C Disbursement available to the beneficiary of such Syndicated Letter of Credit by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in the funds so received, to the account identified by such beneficiary in connection with such demand for such L/C Disbursement.  Promptly following any L/C Disbursement by any Issuing Bank in respect of any Syndicated Letter of Credit, the L/C Agent will notify the Borrower of such L/C Disbursement.
(vii)    Reimbursement.  The Borrower agrees that it shall reimburse the applicable Issuing Banks in respect of L/C Disbursements made under Syndicated Letters of Credit by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount in Dollars equal to the aggregate amount of each L/C Disbursement (the “L/C Reimbursement Amount”) no later than 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day following the L/C Disbursement Date (the “Syndicated L/C Honor Date”) with respect to such Syndicated Letter of Credit together with interest thereon payable as provided in Section 2.5(e).  If the Borrower fails to reimburse the Issuing Banks the L/C Reimbursement Amount on the Syndicated L/C Honor Date, so long as the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 (other than the delivery of a Notice of Borrowing) are satisfied and subject to the amount of the Unutilized Commitments, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Syndicated L/C Honor Date in an amount equal to the L/C Reimbursement Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.2(a)(i) for the principal amount of Borrowings, and the L/C Disbursements of each of the Issuing Banks shall be deemed to have satisfied their obligation to fund their Ratable Share of such Borrowing.  
(b)    Participated Letters of Credit.  
(i)    General.  The Fronting Bank agrees, on and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the agreements of the Lenders set forth in this Section 2.5(b), to Issue Letters of Credit as Participated Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower in Dollars from time to time during the Availability Period.  Each Participated Letter of Credit shall be in a form customarily used or otherwise approved by the Borrower and the Fronting Bank.
(ii)    Notice of Issuance.  To request the Issuance of a Participated Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall hand deliver (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Fronting Bank and Administrative Agent) to the Fronting Bank and the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders) at least three Business Days in advance of the requested date of Issuance (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the Fronting Bank) a notice in a form reasonably acceptable to the Fronting Bank (a “Participated Letter of Credit Notice”) requesting the Issuance of a Participated Letter of Credit, or identifying the Participated Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed, extended or increased, as the case may be, and specifying the date of Issuance (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Participated Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with Section 2.5(b)(iii)), the amount of such Participated Letter of Credit, the 

 34
11863223v8 24740.00050

name and address of the beneficiary thereof and the terms and conditions of (and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew, extend or increase, as the case may be) such Participated Letter of Credit, it being understood and agreed that Participated Letters of Credit may be extended and renewed in accordance with Section 2.5(b)(iii).  If requested by the Fronting Bank, the Borrower shall submit a letter of credit application on the Fronting Bank’s standard form (with such changes as the Fronting Bank shall reasonably deem appropriate) in connection with any request for a Participated Letter of Credit.  In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application submitted by the Borrower to the Fronting Bank relating to any Participated Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.
(iii)    Expiration of Participated Letters of Credit.  Each Participated Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the earlier of (i) the close of business on the date one year after the date of the Issuance of such Participated Letter of Credit or (ii) the Final Maturity Date; provided, however, that at the Borrower’s request a Participated Letter of Credit shall provide by its terms, and on terms reasonably acceptable to the Fronting Bank, for renewal for successive periods of one year or less (but not beyond the Final Maturity Date) unless and until the Fronting Bank shall have delivered prior written notice of nonrenewal to the beneficiary of such Participated Letter of Credit no later than the time specified in such Participated Letter of Credit (which the Fronting Bank shall do only if (A) the Fronting Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to Issue such Participated Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof, or (B) the Fronting Bank has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the applicable non-extension notice date from the Administrative Agent that (1) the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) one or more of the applicable conditions under Section 3.2 (other than the delivery of a Letter of Credit Notice) is not then satisfied).  The Fronting Bank shall promptly provide a copy of any such notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
(iv)    Participations.  By the Issuance of a Participated Letter of Credit by the Fronting Bank (including any Existing Letters of Credit continued and deemed Issued as Participated Letters of Credit as of the Closing Date) and without any further action on the part of the Fronting Bank or the Lenders, the Fronting Bank hereby grants to each Lender in respect of such Participated Letter of Credit, and each such Lender hereby acquires from the Fronting Bank, a participation in such Participated Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of the Stated Amount of such Participated Letter of Credit and the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations with respect thereto.  Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Participated Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any such Letter of Credit or the existence of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the aggregate Commitments.  In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the 

 35
11863223v8 24740.00050

Administrative Agent, for the account of the Fronting Bank, the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of each L/C Disbursement made by the Fronting Bank in respect of any Participated Letter of Credit promptly upon the request of the Fronting Bank at any time from the time such L/C Disbursement is made until such L/C Disbursement is reimbursed by the Borrower or at any time after any reimbursement payment is required to be disgorged or refunded to the Borrower for any reason.  Such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.  Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.5(b)(vi), the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Fronting Bank or, to the extent that any Lender has made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Fronting Bank, then to such Lenders and the Fronting Bank as their interests may appear.  Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Fronting Bank for any L/C Disbursement made by it shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, effective upon the increase of the Commitments pursuant to Section 2.21, each Lender’s participation in any Participated Letter of Credit outstanding on such date shall be automatically adjusted to reflect its Ratable Share after giving effect to such increase. 
(v)    Disbursement Procedures; Reimbursement.  
(A)    The Fronting Bank shall, within a reasonable time following its receipt thereof (and, in any event, within any time specified in the text of the relevant Participated Letters of Credit Issued by it), examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Participated Letter of Credit.  The Fronting Bank shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of such demand for payment and whether the Fronting Bank has made or will make a L/C Disbursement thereunder.  
(B)    The Borrower agrees that it shall reimburse the Fronting Bank in respect of any L/C Disbursement made under the Borrower’s Participated Letter of Credit by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount in Dollars equal to the amount of such L/C Disbursement no later than 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day following the L/C Disbursement Date (the “Participated L/C Honor Date”) with respect to such Participated Letter of Credit together with interest thereon payable as provided in Section 2.5(e).  If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the Lenders by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of the L/C Reimbursement Amount, and the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share thereof.  In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Participated L/C Honor Date in an amount equal to the L/C Reimbursement Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.2(a)(i) for the principal amount of Borrowings, but subject to the amount of the Unutilized Commitments, and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 (other than the delivery of a Notice of Borrowing), and each Lender shall fund its Ratable Share of such Borrowing as set forth in Section 2.2(b).  If the Borrower is unable to request a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because it 

 36
11863223v8 24740.00050

cannot satisfy each of the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 (other than the delivery of a Notice of Borrowing) or for any other reason, each Lender shall fund its L/C Advance as set forth in Section 2.5(b)(vi).
(vi)    Funding of Participations.  If the Borrower shall fail to reimburse the Fronting Bank for any L/C Disbursement on the Participated L/C Honor Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable L/C Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share thereof.  Each Lender shall upon such notice make funds available to the Administrative Agent in Dollars for the account of the Fronting Bank at the Payment Office in an amount equal to the amount of its Ratable Share of the unpaid L/C Disbursement (such amount, its “L/C Advance”) not later than 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent.  No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Fronting Bank for the amount of any payment made by the Fronting Bank under such Participated Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.  If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Fronting Bank any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.5(b)(vi), the Fronting Bank shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Fronting Bank at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.  A certificate of the Fronting Bank submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.5(b)(vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Until a Lender funds its L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.5(b)(vi) to reimburse the Fronting Bank for any L/C Disbursement made by it, interest in respect of such Lender’s L/C Advance shall be solely for the account of the Fronting Bank.
(vii)    Repayment of Participations.
(A)    At any time after the Fronting Bank has made a payment under any Participated Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.5(b)(vi), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the Fronting Bank any payment in respect of the related unpaid L/C Disbursement or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Ratable Share thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.
(B)    If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Fronting Bank pursuant to Section 2.5(b)(v) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 2.14 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Fronting Bank in its discretion), each Lender shall pay 

 37
11863223v8 24740.00050

to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Fronting Bank its Ratable Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.
(viii)    Failure to Make L/C Advances.  The failure of any Lender to make the L/C Advance to be made by it on the date specified in Section 2.5(b)(vi) shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its L/C Advance on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the L/C Advance to be made by such other Lender on such date.
(c)    Conditions Precedent to the Issuance of Letters of Credit.  Each Issuing Bank (and the L/C Agent, on behalf of the Issuing Banks) shall be under no obligation to Issue any Letter of Credit if:
(i)    any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain the Issuance of such Letter of Credit or any law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over it shall prohibit, or request that it refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon it with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction or reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank or any Lender is not otherwise compensated) not in effect on the Closing Date, or any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable, in effect or known to it as of the Closing Date;
(ii)    immediately after giving effect thereto, the Aggregate Credit Exposure would exceed the aggregate Commitments at such time;
(iii)    immediately after giving effect thereto, the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit at such time;
(iv)    with respect to the Issuance of a Participated Letter of Credit, immediately after giving effect thereto, the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure in respect of Participated Letters of Credit would exceed the Participated Letter of Credit Sublimit at such time;
(v)    the L/C Agent or the Fronting Bank, as the case may be, shall have delivered the written notice of nonrenewal described in Section 2.5(a)(iii) or Section 2.5(b)(iii) with respect to such Letter of Credit;
(vi)    the L/C Agent or the Fronting Bank, as the case may be, shall have actual knowledge, or shall have received notice from any Lender prior to the Issuance of such Letter of Credit that one or more of the applicable conditions under Section 3.2 is not then satisfied (or has not been waived in writing as required herein);
(vii)    the expiry date of such Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the date of Issuance or last extension unless the Required Lenders have approved such 

 38
11863223v8 24740.00050

expiry date in writing as required pursuant to Section 10.5;
(viii)    the expiry date of such Letter of Credit occurs after the Final Maturity Date, unless all of the Lenders have approved such expiry date in writing as required pursuant to Section 10.5;
(ix)    such Letter of Credit is not substantially in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the L/C Agent or the Fronting Bank, as applicable;
(x)    such Letter of Credit is denominated in a currency other than Dollars; or
(xi)    with respect to the issuance of a Participated Letter of Credit, any Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless the Fronting Bank has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to the Fronting Bank (in its sole discretion) with such Lender and/or the Borrower to eliminate the Fronting Bank’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iii)) with respect to such Defaulting Lender as it may elect in its sole discretion.
(d)    Obligations Absolute.  The Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrower with respect to an L/C Disbursement under any Letter of Credit and the obligations of any Lender to reimburse the Fronting Bank with respect to any L/C Disbursement made by the Fronting Bank under any Participated Letter of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any Letter of Credit Document under all circumstances, including the following circumstances:
(i)    any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Credit Document, any Letter of Credit Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;
(ii)    any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of any Letter of Credit Document or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to or departure from all or any of the Letter of Credit Documents;
(iii)    the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of a Letter of Credit (or any Persons for which any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any other Letter of Credit Document or any unrelated transaction;
(iv)    any statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

 39
11863223v8 24740.00050

of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit;
(vi)    any payment made by any Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;
(vii)    any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to or departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations of the Borrower; or
(viii)    any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including, without limitation, any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or any guarantor, other than as may be expressly set forth in this Agreement.
None of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender or any of their Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility to the Borrower by reason of or in connection with the Issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder, or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond their control; provided that the foregoing and the other provisions of this Section 2.5(d) shall not be construed to excuse the Administrative Agent, the L/C Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential or exemplary damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment, when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.
(e)    Interest.  Unless the Borrower reimburses each L/C Disbursement made in respect of Letters of Credit issued for its account in full on the date such L/C Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount of the Reimbursement Obligation thereof shall bear interest from the date of each L/C Disbursement until such amount shall be paid in full at the rate per annum then applicable to Base Rate Loans (plus an additional 2% per annum, payable on demand, if not reimbursed by the third Business Day after the date of such L/C Disbursement).  The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of this Section.
(f)    Collateralization of Letters of Credit.
(i)    If (i) as of the Commitment Termination Date, any Letter of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding, (ii) at any time, the Aggregate Credit Exposure shall exceed 

 40
11863223v8 24740.00050

the aggregate Commitments (after giving effect to any concurrent termination or reduction thereof) pursuant to Section 2.7(b) or (iii) any Event of Default occurs and is continuing and the Administrative Agent requires the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure pursuant to Section 8.2(c), the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent as Cash Collateral an amount in cash equal to 103% of the aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit of the Borrower outstanding at such time (whether or not any beneficiary under any Letter of Credit shall have drawn or be entitled at such time to draw thereunder) or, in the case of clause (ii) above, an amount in cash equal to such excess.  The Administrative Agent shall deposit such cash in a special collateral account of the Borrower pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (such account, the “Cash Collateral Account”) for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders.
(ii)    The Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, a Lien upon and security interest in its Cash Collateral Account and all amounts held therein from time to time as security for the Letter of Credit Exposure of the Borrower, and for application to its aggregate Reimbursement Obligations as and when the same shall arise.  The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account for the benefit of the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall have no interest therein except as set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 2.5(f).  Other than any interest on the investment of such amounts in Cash Equivalents, which investments shall be made at the direction of the Borrower (unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in which case the determination as to investments shall be made at the option and in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent), amounts in the Cash Collateral Account shall not bear interest.  Interest and profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in the Cash Collateral Account.  
(iii)    In the event of a drawing, and subsequent payment by any Issuing Bank, under any Letter of Credit at any time during which any amounts are held in the applicable Cash Collateral Account, the Administrative Agent will deliver to such Issuing Bank an amount equal to the Reimbursement Obligation created as a result of such payment (or, if the amounts so held are less than such Reimbursement Obligation, all of such amounts) to reimburse such Issuing Bank therefor.  Any amounts remaining in any Cash Collateral Account (including interest and profits) after the expiration of the Letters of Credit of the Borrower and reimbursement in full of the Issuing Banks for all of their respective obligations thereunder shall be held by the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Borrower, to be applied against the Obligations of the Borrower in such order and manner as the Administrative Agent may direct.  If the Borrower is required to provide Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.7(b), such amount (including interest and profits), to the extent not applied as aforesaid, shall be returned to the Borrower, provided that after giving effect to such return (i) the Aggregate Credit Exposure would not exceed the aggregate Commitments at such time and (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time.  If the Borrower is required to provide Cash Collateral as a result of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the 

 41
11863223v8 24740.00050

Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.
(g)    Use of Letters of Credit.  The Letters of Credit shall be available and the Borrower agrees that any Letters of Credit shall be used to support obligations of the Borrower or any Subsidiary under any Primary Policies or Reinsurance Agreements underwritten by such Subsidiary, the obligations of any Subsidiary as a reinsurer under any Reinsurance Agreement with respect to credit for reinsurance, and for its general corporate purposes.
(h)    Existing Letters of Credit.  The Borrower, the Fronting Bank and the Lenders agree that, as of the Closing Date, each Existing Letter of Credit issued for the account of the Borrower and outstanding on the Closing Date will continue and be deemed Issued under this Agreement for the account of the Borrower as a Participated Letter of Credit.  There are no Syndicated Letters of Credit outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement as of the Closing Date.
2.6    Termination and Reduction of Commitments and Swingline Commitment.  
(a)    The aggregate Commitments shall be automatically and permanently terminated on the Commitment Termination Date.  The Swingline Commitment shall be automatically and permanently terminated on the Commitment Termination Date.
(b)    At any time and from time to time after the date hereof, upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (and in the case of a termination or reduction of the Unutilized Swingline Commitment, the Swingline Lender), the Borrower may terminate in whole or reduce in part the aggregate Unutilized Commitments or the Unutilized Swingline Commitment; provided that any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000 ($500,000 in the case of the Unutilized Swingline Commitment) or, if greater, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof ($100,000 in the case of the Unutilized Swingline Commitment), and applied ratably among the Lenders according to their respective Commitments.  Any such notice delivered by the Borrower may be conditioned upon the effectiveness of other transactions, in which case such notice may be revoked or its effectiveness deferred by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.  The amount of any termination or reduction made under this Section 2.6(b) may not thereafter be reinstated.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.6 that has the effect of reducing the aggregate Commitments to an amount less than the amount of the Swingline Commitment, the Letter of Credit Sublimit and/or the Participated Letter of Credit Sublimit at such time shall result in an automatic corresponding reduction of the Swingline Commitment, the Letter of Credit Sublimit and/or the Participated Letter of Credit Sublimit, as the case may be, to the amount of the aggregate Commitments (as so reduced), without any further action on the part of the Borrower, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lender or any other Lender.
(c)    All fees accrued in respect of the Unutilized Commitments until the effective date of any termination thereof shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

 42
11863223v8 24740.00050

2.7    Mandatory Payments and Prepayments.
(a)    Except to the extent due or paid sooner pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower shall repay to the Lenders the aggregate outstanding principal of the Revolving Loans on the Commitment Termination Date.  The aggregate outstanding principal of each Swingline Loan shall be due and payable in full on the earlier of (i) the date 10 Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made and (ii) the Commitment Termination Date.
(b)    In the event that, at any time, the Aggregate Credit Exposure (excluding the aggregate amount of any Swingline Loans to be repaid with proceeds of Revolving Loans made on the date of determination) shall exceed the aggregate Commitments at such time (after giving effect to any concurrent termination or reduction thereof), the Borrower will immediately upon notice from the Administrative Agent prepay (i) the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans and, to the extent of any excess remaining after prepayment in full of outstanding Swingline Loans and (ii) the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans in the amount of such excess.  To the extent such excess amount is greater than the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding immediately prior to the application of such prepayment, the amount so prepaid shall be retained by the Administrative Agent and held in the Cash Collateral Account as cover for the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure, as more particularly described in Section 2.5(f), and thereupon such cash shall be deemed to reduce the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure by an equivalent amount.  Each payment or prepayment pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.7 shall be applied ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans being prepaid, in proportion to the principal amount held by each.  Each payment or prepayment of a LIBOR Loan made pursuant to the provisions of this Section on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto shall be made together with all amounts required under Section 2.19 to be paid as a consequence thereof.
2.8    Voluntary Prepayments.
(a)    At any time and from time to time, the Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, together with accrued interest to the date of prepayment, without premium or penalty (except as provided in clause (iii) below), upon written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. three Business Days prior to each intended prepayment of LIBOR Loans and one Business Day prior to each intended prepayment of Base Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans, which may be prepaid on a same-day basis), provided that (i) each partial prepayment of LIBOR Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of not less than $5,000,000 or, if greater, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and each partial prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of not less than $3,000,000 or, if greater, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof ($100,000 and $100,000, respectively, in the case of Swingline Loans), (ii) no partial prepayment of LIBOR Loans made pursuant to any single Borrowing shall reduce the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the remaining LIBOR Loans under such Borrowing to less than $5,000,000 or to any greater amount not an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and (iii) unless made together with all amounts required under Section 2.19 to be paid as a consequence of such prepayment, a prepayment of a LIBOR Loan may be made only on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.  Each such notice shall specify the proposed date of such prepayment and the aggregate principal amount and Type of the Loans 

 43
11863223v8 24740.00050

to be prepaid (and, in the case of LIBOR Loans, the Interest Period of such Borrowing pursuant to which made), and shall be irrevocable and shall bind the Borrower to make such prepayment on the terms specified therein, subject to any condition specified in such notice. Any such notice delivered by the Borrower may be conditioned upon the effectiveness of other transactions, in which case such notice may be revoked or its effectiveness deferred by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.  Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.8(a) may be reborrowed, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  In the event the Administrative Agent receives a notice of prepayment under this Section, the Administrative Agent will give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders; provided that if such notice has also been furnished to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to notify the Lenders with respect thereto.
(b)    Each prepayment of the Loans made pursuant to Section 2.8(a) shall be applied ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans being prepaid, in proportion to the principal amount held by each.
2.9    Interest.
(a)    Subject to Section 2.9(b), each Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date of Borrowing thereof until such principal amount shall be paid in full, (i) at the Adjusted Base Rate, as in effect from time to time during such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, (ii) at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, as in effect from time to time during such periods as such Loan is a LIBOR Loan and (iii) at the Adjusted Base Rate, as in effect from time to time during such periods as such Loan is a Swingline Loan.
(b)    Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default under Section 8.1(a), Section 8.1(f) or Section 8.1(g) and (at the election of the Required Lenders) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, all outstanding principal amounts of the Loans, all Reimbursement Obligations (to the extent not already bearing an additional 2% per annum pursuant to Section 2.5(e)) and, to the greatest extent permitted by law, all interest accrued on the Loans and all other accrued and outstanding fees and other amounts hereunder, shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable from time to time thereafter to such Loans (whether the Adjusted Base Rate or the Adjusted LIBOR Rate) plus 2% (or, in the case of interest, fees and other amounts for which no rate is provided hereunder, at the Adjusted Base Rate plus 2%), and, in each case, such default interest shall be payable on demand.  To the greatest extent permitted by law, interest shall continue to accrue after the filing by or against the Borrower of any petition seeking any relief under any Debtor Relief Law.
(c)    Accrued (and theretofore unpaid) interest in respect of any Loan shall be payable as follows:
(i)    in respect of each Base Rate Loan and Swingline Loan, in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, beginning with the first such day to occur after the Closing Date;

 44
11863223v8 24740.00050

(ii)    in respect of each LIBOR Loan, in arrears (y) on the last Business Day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (subject to the provisions of Section 2.11(iv)) and (z) in addition, in the case of a LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period having a duration of six months, on each date on which interest would have been payable under clause (y) above had successive Interest Periods of three months’ duration been applicable to such LIBOR Loan;
(iii)    upon any payment of any Loan pursuant to Section 2.7 or Section 2.8 (other than the prepayment of a Base Rate Loan prior to the Commitment Termination Date), to the extent accrued on the amount being paid or prepaid; and
(iv)    in respect of any Loan, at maturity (whether pursuant to acceleration or otherwise) and, after maturity, on demand.
(d)    Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of interest to any Lender at a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.  If the amount of interest payable for the account of any Lender on any interest payment date would exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to be charged by such Lender, the amount of interest payable for its account on such interest payment date shall be automatically reduced to such maximum permissible amount.  In the event of any such reduction affecting any Lender, if from time to time thereafter the amount of interest payable for the account of such Lender on any interest payment date would be less than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to be charged by such Lender, then the amount of interest payable for its account on such subsequent interest payment date shall be automatically increased to such maximum permissible amount, provided that at no time shall the aggregate amount by which interest paid for the account of any Lender has been increased pursuant to this sentence exceed the aggregate amount by which interest paid for its account has theretofore been reduced pursuant to the previous sentence.
(e)    The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders upon determining the interest rate for each Borrowing of LIBOR Loans after its receipt of the relevant Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, and upon each change in the Base Rate; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent to provide the Borrower or the Lenders with any such notice shall neither affect any obligations of the Borrower or the Lenders hereunder nor result in any liability on the part of the Administrative Agent to the Borrower or any Lender.  Each such determination (including each determination of the Reserve Requirement) shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.
2.10    Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay:
(a)    To the Arrangers, the Fronting Bank and the Administrative Agent, for their own respective accounts, the fees required under the Fee Letters to be paid to them and the Lenders in the amounts and at the times as required by the terms thereof;
(b)    To the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”), which shall accrue at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Percentage in 

 45
11863223v8 24740.00050

effect for such fee from time to time during each calendar quarter (or portion thereof) on such Lender’s Unutilized Commitment (excluding clause (ii) of the definition thereof for purposes of this Section 2.10(b) only), during the period from and including the date hereof to but excluding the Commitment Termination Date; provided, however, that no Commitment Fee shall accrue on the Unutilized Commitments of a Defaulting Lender during any period that such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender.  Accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears (i) on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, beginning with the first such day to occur after the date hereof and (ii) on the Commitment Termination Date.  All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day); 
(c)    To the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, a letter of credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each calendar quarter (or portion thereof) in respect of all Letters of Credit outstanding during such quarter, at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Percentage in effect for such fee from time to time during such quarter on such Lender’s Ratable Share of the average daily aggregate Stated Amount of Letters of Credit outstanding during such quarter; provided, however, that any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the Fronting Bank pursuant to Section 2.5(c)(xi) shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Ratable Shares allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.22(a)(iii), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the Fronting Bank for its own account.  The Letter of Credit Fee shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears (i) on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date through the Final Maturity Date and (ii) on the Final Maturity Date;
(d)    To the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the annual administrative agent’s fee described in its Fee Letter, on the terms, in the amount and at the times set forth therein; and
(e)    To the Fronting Bank, for its own account, with respect to the Issuance of each Participated Letter of Credit hereunder, a fronting fee described in its Fee Letter, on the terms, in the amount and at the times set forth therein and, to the Fronting Bank and the L/C Agent, such reasonable fees and expenses as the Fronting Bank or L/C Agent customarily requires in connection with the issuance, amendment, transfer, negotiation, processing and/or administration of letters of credit.
2.11    Interest Periods.  Concurrently with the giving of a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation in respect of any Borrowing comprised of Base Rate Loans to be converted into, or LIBOR Loans to be continued as, LIBOR Loans, the Borrower shall have the right to elect, pursuant to such notice, the interest period (each, an “Interest Period”) to be applicable to such LIBOR Loans, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Borrower, be a one, two, three or six-month period; provided, however, that:
(i)    all LIBOR Loans comprising a single Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period;

 46
11863223v8 24740.00050

(ii)    the initial Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan shall commence on the date of the Borrowing of such LIBOR Loan (including the date of any continuation of, or conversion into, such LIBOR Loan, and each successive Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Loan shall commence on the day on which the immediately preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires;
(iii)    LIBOR Loans may not be outstanding under more than four separate Interest Periods at any one time (for which purpose Interest Periods shall be deemed to be separate even if they are coterminous);
(iv)    if any Interest Period otherwise would expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day unless such next succeeding Business Day falls in another calendar month, in which case such Interest Period shall expire on the immediately preceding Business Day;
(v)    no Interest Period may be selected with respect to the Loans that would end after a scheduled date for repayment of principal of the Loans occurring on or after the first day of such Interest Period unless, immediately after giving effect to such selection, the aggregate principal amount of Loans that are Base Rate Loans or that have Interest Periods expiring on or before such principal repayment date equals or exceeds the principal amount required to be paid on such principal repayment date;
(vi)    the Borrower may not select any Interest Period that expires after the Commitment Termination Date, with respect to Loans that are to be maintained as LIBOR Loans;
(vii)    if any Interest Period begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month during which such Interest Period would otherwise expire, such Interest Period shall expire on the last Business Day of such calendar month; and
(viii)    the Borrower may not select any Interest Period (and consequently, no LIBOR Loans shall be made) if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation with respect to any Borrowing.
2.12    Conversions and Continuations.
(a)    The Borrower shall have the right, on any Business Day occurring on or after the Closing Date, to elect (i) to convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of any Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans, or to convert any LIBOR Loans the Interest Periods for which end on the same day into Base Rate Loans, or (ii) upon the expiration of any Interest Period, to continue all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of any LIBOR Loans the Interest Periods for which end on the same day for an additional Interest Period, provided that (w) any such conversion of LIBOR Loans of the same Borrowing into Base Rate Loans shall involve an aggregate principal amount of not less than $3,000,000 or, if greater, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; 

 47
11863223v8 24740.00050

any such conversion of Base Rate Loans of the same Borrowing into, or continuation of, LIBOR Loans shall involve an aggregate principal amount of not less than $5,000,000 or, if greater, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and no partial conversion of LIBOR Loans of the same Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of LIBOR Loans to less than $5,000,000 or to any greater amount not an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (x) if a LIBOR Loan is converted into a Base Rate Loan on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower will pay, upon such conversion, all amounts required under Section 2.19 to be paid as a consequence thereof, (y) no such conversion or continuation shall be permitted with regard to any Swingline Loans and (z) no conversion of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans or continuation of LIBOR Loans shall be permitted during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default.
(b)    The Borrower shall make each such election by giving the Administrative Agent written notice not later than 11:00 a.m. three Business Days prior to the intended effective date of any conversion of Base Rate Loans into, or continuation of, LIBOR Loans and one Business Day prior to the intended effective date of any conversion of LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans.  Each such notice (each, a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) shall be irrevocable, shall be given in the form of Exhibit B-3 and shall specify (x) the date of such conversion or continuation (which shall be a Business Day), (y) in the case of a conversion into, or a continuation of, LIBOR Loans, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto, and (z) the aggregate amount and Type of the Loans being converted or continued.  Upon the receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of the proposed conversion or continuation.  In the event that the Borrower shall fail to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation as provided herein with respect to any outstanding LIBOR Loans, such LIBOR Loans shall automatically be converted to Base Rate Loans upon the expiration of the then-current Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof).  In the event the Borrower shall have failed to select in a Notice of Conversion/Continuation the duration of the Interest Period to be applicable to any conversion into, or continuation of, LIBOR Loans, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period with a duration of one month.
2.13    Method of Payments; Computations; Apportionment of Payments.
(a)    All payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense, in Dollars and in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders entitled to such payment or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be (except as otherwise expressly provided herein as to payments required to be made directly to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders), at the Payment Office prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date payment is due.  Any payment made as required hereinabove, but after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day.  If any payment falls due on a day that is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (except that in the case of LIBOR Loans to which the provisions of Section 2.11(iv) are applicable, such due date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day), and such extension of time shall then be included in the computation of payment of interest, fees or other applicable amounts.

 48
11863223v8 24740.00050

(b)    The Administrative Agent will distribute to the Lenders like amounts relating to payments made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders as follows:  (i) if the payment is received by 12:00 noon in immediately available funds, the Administrative Agent will make available to each relevant Lender on the same date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, such Lender’s Ratable Share of such payment, and (ii) if such payment is received after 12:00 noon or in other than immediately available funds, the Administrative Agent will make available to each such Lender its Ratable Share of such payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds on the next succeeding Business Day (or in the case of uncollected funds, as soon as practicable after collected).  Notwithstanding the foregoing or any contrary provision hereof, if any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder to the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank or the Swingline Lender, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.  If the Administrative Agent shall not have made a required distribution to the appropriate Lenders as required hereinabove after receiving a payment for the account of such Lenders, the Administrative Agent will pay to each such Lender, on demand, its Ratable Share of such payment with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from the date such amount was required to be disbursed by the Administrative Agent until the date repaid to such Lender.  The Administrative Agent will distribute to the Issuing Banks and Swingline Lender like amounts relating to payments made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Banks and Swingline Lender in the same manner, and subject to the same terms and conditions, as set forth hereinabove with respect to distributions of amounts to the Lenders.
(c)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Lenders or the Issuing Banks hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the relevant Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the relevant Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Banks, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
(d)    All computations of interest and fees hereunder (including computations of the Reserve Requirement) shall be made on the basis of a year consisting of (i) in the case of interest on Base Rate Loans based on the prime commercial lending rate of the Administrative Agent, 365/366 days, as the case may be, or (ii) in all other instances, 360 days; and in each case under (i) and (ii) above, with regard to the actual number of days (including the first day, but excluding the last day) elapsed.

(e)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document to the contrary, all amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent or any Lender after acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 8.2 shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as follows:
(i)    first, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees irrespective of whether such fees are allowed as a claim after the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event) of the Administrative Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Lenders under the Credit Documents;
(ii)    second, to the payment of any fees owed to the Administrative Agent and the Fronting Bank hereunder or under any other Credit Document;
(iii)    third, to the payment of all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees irrespective of whether such fees are allowed as a claim after the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event) of each of the Lenders, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Banks and the L/C Agent in connection with enforcing its rights under the Credit Documents or otherwise with respect to the Obligations owing to such Lender;
(iv)    fourth, to the payment of all of the Obligations consisting of accrued fees and interest (including, without limitation, fees incurred and interest accruing at the then applicable rate after the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event irrespective of whether a claim for such fees incurred and interest accruing is allowed in such proceeding);
(v)    fifth, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations (including the payment of any outstanding Reimbursement Obligations);
(vi)    sixth, to Cash Collateralize Letter of Credit Exposure and to the payment of all other Obligations and other obligations that shall have become due and payable under the Credit Documents or otherwise and not repaid; and
(vii)    seventh, to the payment of the surplus (if any) to the Borrower or whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.
In carrying out the foregoing, (x) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category, (y) all amounts shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Banks in proportion to the amounts of such principal, interest, fees or other Obligations owed to them respectively pursuant to clauses (iii) through (vii) above, and (z) to the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause (v) above are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit, such amounts shall be held by the Administrative Agent to Cash Collateralize Letter of Credit Exposure pursuant to Section 2.5(f).

 50
11863223v8 24740.00050

2.14    Recovery of Payments.
(a)    The Borrower agrees that to the extent the Borrower makes a payment or payments to or for the account of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, any Lender or any Issuing Bank, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any Debtor Relief Law, common law or equitable cause (whether as a result of any demand, settlement, litigation or otherwise), then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, the Obligation intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been received.
(b)    If any amounts distributed by the Administrative Agent to any Lender or any Issuing Bank are subsequently returned or repaid by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, its representative or successor in interest, or any other Person, whether by court order, by settlement approved by such Lender or such Issuing Bank, or pursuant to applicable Requirements of Law, such Lender or such Issuing Bank will, promptly upon receipt of notice thereof from the Administrative Agent, pay the Administrative Agent such amount.  If any such amounts are recovered by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower, its representative or successor in interest or such other Person, the Administrative Agent will redistribute such amounts to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks on the same basis as such amounts were originally distributed.
2.15    Use of Proceeds.  The proceeds of the Loans shall be used to provide for the working capital and general corporate requirements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries not in contravention of any Requirement of Law or any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no proceeds from any Credit Extension shall be used, directly or, to the Borrower’s knowledge after due care and inquiry, indirectly, (i) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws, (ii) for the purpose of funding, financing or facilitating any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, or (iii) in any manner that would result in the violation of any Anti-Money Laundering Laws or Sanctions applicable to any party hereto. 
2.16    Pro Rata Treatment.
(a)    Except in the case of Swingline Loans, all fundings, continuations and conversions of Loans shall be made by the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their Ratable Share (in the case of the initial making of the Loans) or on the basis of their respective outstanding Loans (in the case of continuations and conversions of the Loans), as the case may be from time to time.  All payments on account of principal of or interest on any Loans, fees or any other Obligations owing to or for the account of any one or more Lenders shall be apportioned ratably among such Lenders in proportion to the amounts of such principal, interest, fees or other Obligations owed to them respectively.
(b)    If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other Obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of 

 51
11863223v8 24740.00050

its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such Obligations greater than its Ratable Share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other Obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other Obligations owing them, provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans, Reimbursement Obligations or Swingline Loans to any assignee or Participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.16(b) shall apply).  The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.  If under any applicable Debtor Relief Law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section 2.16(b) applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders entitled under this Section 2.16(b) to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.
2.17    Increased Costs; Change in Circumstances; Illegality.
(a)    If any Change in Law shall:
(i)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except the Reserve Requirement reflected in the LIBOR Rate) or any Issuing Bank;
(ii)    subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (ii) through (iv) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
(iii)    impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make or participate in any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender, such 

 52
11863223v8 24740.00050

Issuing Bank or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then, upon request of such Lender, such Issuing Bank or other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Bank or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b)    If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Issuing Bank or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c)    A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the calculation in reasonable detail of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 2.17(a) or Section 2.17(b) and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof.
(d)    Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or such Issuing Bank pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
(e)    Unless and until a Replacement Rate is implemented in accordance with clause (f) below, if on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period, (x) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that Dollar deposits are 

 53
11863223v8 24740.00050

not being offered to banks in the London interbank Eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan, (y) the Administrative Agent shall have determined that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period or (z) the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from the Required Lenders of their determination that the rate of interest referred to in the definition of “LIBOR Rate” upon the basis of which the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period is to be determined will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining LIBOR Loans during such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and the Lenders.  Upon such notice, (i) all then-outstanding LIBOR Loans shall automatically, on the expiration date of the respective Interest Periods applicable thereto (unless then repaid in full), be converted into Base Rate Loans, (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, to convert Base Rate Loans into, or to continue, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended (including pursuant to the Borrowing to which such Interest Period applies) and (iii) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given at any time thereafter with respect to LIBOR Loans shall be deemed to be a request for Base Rate Loans, in each case until the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, as the case may be, shall have determined that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist (and the Required Lenders, if making such determination, shall have so notified the Administrative Agent), and the Administrative Agent shall have so notified the Borrower and the Lenders. 
(f)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.17(e) above, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances described in Section 2.17(e)(x) or (e)(y) have arisen and that such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (ii) the LIBOR Rate specified herein is no longer a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in the U.S. syndicated loan market or (iii) the applicable supervisor or administrator (if any) of the LIBOR Rate or any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR Rate shall no longer be used (or required to be published) for determining interest rates for loans in the U.S. syndicated loan market, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the LIBOR Rate with a replacement interest rate, giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar Dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks (the “Replacement Rate”), in which case, the Replacement Rate shall, subject to the next two sentences, replace the LIBOR Rate for all purposes under this Agreement unless and until (A) an event described in Section 2.17(e)(x), (e)(y), (f)(i), (f)(ii) or (f)(iii) occurs with respect to the Replacement Rate or (B) the Required Lenders (directly, or through the Administrative Agent) notify the Borrower that the Replacement Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding the Loans bearing interest at the Replacement Rate.  In connection with the establishment and application of the Replacement Rate, this Agreement shall be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, as may be necessary or appropriate to effect the provisions of this Section 2.17(f).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 10.5), such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the delivery of such amendment to the Lenders, written notices from such Lenders that in the aggregate constitute Required Lenders, with each such notice stating that such 

 54
11863223v8 24740.00050

Lender objects to such amendment.  The Replacement Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that, in each case, to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Replacement Rate shall be applied as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in a manner consistent with other credit facilities of the Administrative Agent with similarly situated borrowers (it being understood that any such modification shall not require the consent of, or consultation with, any of the Lenders). After any of the circumstances described in Section 2.17(f)(i), (f)(ii) or (f)(iii) have occurred, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.  Thereafter, until a Replacement Rate has been determined, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Loans shall be suspended, and (y) the LIBOR Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the amount specified therein. 
(g)    Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if, at any time after the date hereof and from time to time, any Lender determines in good faith that any Change in Law has or would have the effect of making it unlawful for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make or to continue to make or maintain LIBOR Loans, such Lender will forthwith so notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.  Upon such notice, (i) each of such Lender’s then outstanding LIBOR Loans shall automatically, on the expiration date of the respective Interest Period applicable thereto (or, to the extent any such LIBOR Loan may not lawfully be maintained as a LIBOR Loan until such expiration date, upon such notice) and to the extent not sooner prepaid, be converted into a Base Rate Loan, (ii) the obligation of such Lender to make, to convert Base Rate Loans into, or to continue, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended (including pursuant to any Borrowing for which the Administrative Agent has received a Notice of Borrowing but for which the Borrowing Date has not arrived), and (iii) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given at any time thereafter with respect to LIBOR Loans shall, as to such Lender, be deemed to be a request for a Base Rate Loan, in each case until such Lender shall have determined that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist and shall have so notified the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall have so notified the Borrower.  
(h)    Similar Treatment.  Notwithstanding the foregoing Sections 2.17(a) and 2.17(b), no Lender, Issuing Bank or Recipient shall impose any costs specified therein or make any request for compensation pursuant thereto (or be entitled to any such additional costs) unless such Lender, Issuing Bank or Recipient is then generally imposing such cost upon or requesting such compensation from borrowers in connection with similar credit facilities containing similar provisions and at the time of such request certifies to the Borrower to the effect of the foregoing; provided such Lender, Issuing Bank or Recipient shall not be required to disclose any of its records or any other information that it deems confidential.
2.18    Taxes.
(a)    For purposes of this Section 2.18, the term “Lender” includes each Issuing Bank.
(b)    Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any 

 55
11863223v8 24740.00050

Credit Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law.  If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.18) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(c)    The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(d)    The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.18) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(e)    Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.6(e) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Credit Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Credit Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.18(e).
(f)    As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.18, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

 56
11863223v8 24740.00050

(g)    Status of Lenders.
(i)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 2.18(g)(ii)(A), 2.18(g)(ii)(B) and 2.18(g)(ii)(D)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person:
(A)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(B)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(1)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Credit Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Credit Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

 57
11863223v8 24740.00050

(2)    executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(3)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the 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 (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or
(4)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W‐8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 or Exhibit G-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)    if a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and 

 58
11863223v8 24740.00050

withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this Section 2.18(g)(ii)(D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(h)    If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.18 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.18), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.18 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.18(h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.18(h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.18(h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.  This Section 2.18(h) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(i)    Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.18 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Credit Document.
2.19    Compensation.  The Borrower will compensate each Lender upon demand for all losses (other than loss of Applicable Percentage), expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund or maintain LIBOR Loans) that such Lender may incur or sustain (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) the initial borrowing of a LIBOR Loan or continuation of, or conversion into a LIBOR Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, (ii) if any repayment, prepayment or conversion of any LIBOR Loan occurs on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a consequence of any assignment made pursuant to Section 2.20(a) or any acceleration of the maturity of the Loans pursuant to Section 8.2), (iii) if any prepayment of any LIBOR Loan is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower or (iv) as a consequence of any other failure by the Borrower to make any 

 59
11863223v8 24740.00050

payments with respect to any LIBOR Loan when due hereunder.  Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.19 shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded its relevant LIBOR Loan through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such LIBOR Loan, having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that each Lender may fund its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under this Section 2.19.  The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.  A certificate (which shall be in reasonable detail) showing the bases for the determinations set forth in this Section 2.19 by any Lender as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall be submitted by such Lender to the Borrower either directly or through the Administrative Agent.  Determinations set forth in any such certificate made in good faith for purposes of this Section 2.19 of any such losses, expenses or liabilities shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
2.20    Replacement of Lenders; Mitigation of Costs.  
(a)    If any Lender requests compensation under Sections 2.17(a) or 2.17(b), or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, or if any Lender’s obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Loans has been suspended under Section 2.17(f) and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different Lending Office in accordance with Section 2.20(b), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at is sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.6), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 2.17(a), 2.17(b) or 2.18) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Credit Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:
(i)    the Administrative Agent shall have received the assignment fee specified in Section 10.6(b)(iv);
(ii)    such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, any L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.19) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);
(iii)    in the case of any such assignment resulting from a request for compensation under Sections 2.17(a) or 2.17(b) or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.18, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; 
(iv)    such assignment does not conflict with applicable Requirements of Law; and

 60
11863223v8 24740.00050

(v)    in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable Eligible Assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.
A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
(b)    If any Lender requests compensation under Sections 2.17(a) or 2.17(b), or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 2.17(f), then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans or L/C Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.17(a), 2.17(b) or 2.18, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 2.17(f), as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender as it so deems in good faith.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
2.21    Increase in Commitments.  
(a)    The Borrower shall have the right, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date but prior to the date 30 days prior to the Commitment Termination Date by written notice to and in consultation with the Administrative Agent, to request an increase in the aggregate Commitments (each such requested increase, a “Commitment Increase”), by having one or more existing Lenders increase their respective Commitments then in effect (each, an “Increasing Lender”), by adding as a Lender with a new Commitment hereunder one or more Persons that are not already Lenders (each, an “Additional Lender”), or a combination thereof; provided that (i) any such request for a Commitment Increase shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (ii) immediately after giving effect to any Commitment Increase, the aggregate of all Commitment Increases effected after the Closing Date shall not exceed $200,000,000, and (iii) no existing Lender shall be obligated to increase its Commitment as a result of any request for a Commitment Increase by the Borrower unless it agrees in its sole discretion to do so.
(b)    Each Additional Lender must qualify as an Eligible Assignee (the approval of which by the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Fronting Bank shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the Borrower and each Additional Lender shall execute a Lender Joinder Agreement together with all such other documentation as the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may reasonably require, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to evidence the Commitment of such Additional Lender and its status as a Lender hereunder.

 61
11863223v8 24740.00050

(c)    If the aggregate Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Commitment Increase Date,” which shall be a Business Day not less than 30 days prior to the Commitment Termination Date) and the final allocation of such increase.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Commitment Increase Date.  The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, on behalf of the Lenders, to enter into any amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably deem appropriate to effect such Commitment Increase.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 2.21, no increase in the aggregate Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.21 shall be effective unless:
(i)    The Administrative Agent shall have received the following, each dated the Commitment Increase Date and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent:
(A)    as to each Increasing Lender, evidence of its agreement to provide a portion of the Commitment Increase, and as to each Additional Lender, a duly executed Lender Joinder agreement together with all other documentation required by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.21(b);
(B)    an instrument, duly executed by the Borrower, acknowledging and reaffirming its obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents;
(C)    a certificate of the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Borrower, certifying to and attaching the resolutions adopted by the board of directors (or similar governing body) of the Borrower approving or consenting to such Commitment Increase;
(D)    a certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower, certifying that (y) as of the Commitment Increase Date, all representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents are true and correct in all material respects (or if qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in all respects), both immediately before and after giving effect to the Commitment Increase and any Borrowings or Letters of Credit issued in connection therewith (except to the extent any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, in which case such representation or warranty is true and correct in all material respects (or if qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in all respects), in each case as of such date), and (z) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, both immediately before and after giving effect to such Commitment Increase (including any Borrowings or Letters of Credit issued in connection therewith and the application of the proceeds thereof); 
(ii)    If there is a non-ratable increase in the aggregate Commitments, each outstanding Syndicated Letter of Credit shall have been amended giving effect to the reallocation of the Commitments or, if required, returned by each respective beneficiary to 

 62
11863223v8 24740.00050

the Administrative Agent and cancelled and/or exchanged for a new or amended Syndicated Letter of Credit giving effect to the reallocated Commitments; and
(iii)    The conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 shall have been satisfied.
(e)    On the Commitment Increase Date, to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Loans ratable in the event of any non-ratable increase in the aggregate Commitments, (i) all then outstanding Revolving Loans (the “Outstanding Loans”) shall, to the extent not then maintained as Base Rate Loans, automatically be converted into Base Rate Loans, (ii) immediately after the effectiveness of the Commitment Increase, the Borrower may, if it so requests, convert any such Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans in the amounts and for the Interest Periods specified in a Notice of Conversion/Continuation delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.12, (iii) each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds an amount equal to the difference, if positive, between (y) such Lender’s Ratable Share, calculated after giving effect to the Commitment Increase, of the Outstanding Loans and (z) such Lender’s Ratable Share, calculated without giving effect to the Commitment Increase, of the Outstanding Loans, (iv) after the Administrative Agent receives the funds specified in clause (iii) above, the Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender the portion of such funds equal to the difference, if positive, between (y) such Lender’s Ratable Share, calculated without giving effect to the Commitment Increase, of the Outstanding Loans and (z) such Lender’s Ratable Share, calculated after giving effect to the Commitment Increase, of the amount of the Outstanding Loans, (v) the Lenders shall be deemed to hold the Outstanding Loans ratably in accordance with their respective Commitment (calculated after giving effect to the Commitment Increase), (vi) the Borrower shall pay all accrued but unpaid interest on the Outstanding Loans as of the Commitment Increase Date to the Lenders entitled thereto, and (vii) Schedule 1.1(a) shall automatically be amended to reflect the Commitments of all Lenders after giving effect to the Commitment Increase.  The conversion of LIBOR Loans pursuant to clause (i) above shall be subject to indemnification by the Borrower pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.19 if the Commitment Increase Date occurs other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto.
2.22    Defaulting Lenders.  
(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:
(i)    Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders and in Section 10.5.
(ii)    Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 8.3 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows:

 63
11863223v8 24740.00050

(A)    first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder;
(B)    second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Fronting Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder;
(C)    third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the Fronting Bank or the Swingline Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for the Fronting Exposure of the Fronting Bank or the Swingline Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.22(c);
(D)    fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent;
(E)    fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Fronting Bank’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit Issued under this Agreement, in accordance with  Section 2.22(c);
(F)    sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Fronting Bank or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Fronting Bank or the Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement;
(G)    seventh, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and
(H)    eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction;
provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or any Letter of Credit Exposure in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and obligations in respect of Letters of Credit owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or obligations in respect of Letters of Credit owed to, such Defaulting Lender.  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender 

 64
11863223v8 24740.00050

or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.22(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
(iii)    (23)    No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Lender.
(A)    Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Letter of Credit Exposure for which it has provided Cash Collateral in accordance with Section 2.22(c).
(B)    With respect to any Commitment Fee or Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.22(a)(iii)(A) or 2.22(a)(iii)(B), the Borrower shall (x) pay to each non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure or Swingline Exposure that has been reallocated to such non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.22(a)(iv), (y) pay to the Fronting Bank and the Swingline Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Fronting Bank’s or Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.
(iv)    All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure and Swingline Exposure shall automatically (effective on the day such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Credit Exposures (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the Credit Exposure of any non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment.
(v)    If the reallocation described in Section 2.22(a)(iv) cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (A) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (b) second, Cash Collateralize the Fronting Bank’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.22(c).
(b)    If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank and the Swingline Lender agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Loans, Syndicated Letters of Credit and funded and unfunded participations in Participated Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their respective 

 65
11863223v8 24740.00050

Credit Exposures (without giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iii)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided further that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
(c)    At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within two Business Days upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank or the Swingline Lender, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iii) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).
(i)    All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts with the Administrative Agent.  The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank and the Lenders (including the Swingline Lender), and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.22(c)(ii).  If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.
(ii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.22 in respect of Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in specific Letter of Credit Exposure or specific Swingline Exposure (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.
Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee)) or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, that (x) Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower shall not be released during the continuance of a Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.22 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 2.13) and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Fronting 

 66
11863223v8 24740.00050

Bank or Swingline Lender, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.
2.23    Extension of Commitment Termination Date.  
(a)    The Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders) given in writing not more than ninety (90) days and not later than thirty (30) days prior to any anniversary of the Closing Date (each such anniversary date, the relevant “Extension Date”), on no more than two (2) occasions during the term of this Agreement, request that each Lender extend such Lender’s Commitment Termination Date for a period of one (1) year from the Commitment Termination Date then in effect hereunder (the “Existing Commitment Termination Date”); provided that the Commitment Termination Date, after giving effect to any such extension, shall not be later than five (5) years after the effective date of such extension.
(i)    Each Lender, acting in its sole and individual discretion, shall, by notice to the Administrative Agent given in writing not earlier than sixty (60) days prior to the Extension Date and not later than fifteen (15) days prior to the Extension Date (the date that is fifteen (15) days prior to the Extension Date being the “Notice Date”), advise the Administrative Agent if such Lender accepts the extension request from the Borrower (and each Lender that determines not to so extend its Commitment Termination Date (each, a “Non-Extending Lender”) shall notify the Administrative Agent of such fact promptly after such determination and in any event no later than the Notice Date) and any Lender that does not so advise the Administrative Agent on or before the Notice Date shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Lender.  The election of any Lender to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Lender to so agree.
(ii)    The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of each Lender’s determination under this Section 2.23(a) no later than the date that is ten (10) days prior to the Extension Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the next preceding Business Day).
(iii)    The Borrower shall have the right on or before the Extension Date to replace each Non-Extending Lender with, and add as “Lenders” under this Agreement in place thereof, one or more Eligible Assignees (each, an “Additional Commitment Lender”) with the approval of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Fronting Bank (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), each of which Additional Commitment Lenders shall have entered into an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent pursuant to which such Additional Commitment Lender shall, effective as of the Extension Date, undertake a Commitment (and, if any such Additional Commitment Lender is already a Lender, its Commitment shall be in addition to such Lender’s Commitment hereunder on such date).

 67
11863223v8 24740.00050

(iv)    If (and only if) the total of the Commitments of the Lenders that have agreed to extend their Commitment Termination Date and the additional Commitments of the Additional Commitment Lenders shall be more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments in effect immediately prior to the Extension Date, then, effective as of the Extension Date, the Commitment Termination Date of each extending Lender and of each Additional Commitment Lender shall be extended to the date falling one (1) year after the Existing Commitment Termination Date (except that, if such date is not a Business Day, such Commitment Termination Date as so extended shall be the next preceding Business Day) and each Additional Commitment Lender shall thereupon become a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.
(v)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the extension of the Commitment Termination Date pursuant to this Section 2.23(a) shall not be effective with respect to any Lender unless:
(A)    no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such extension and after giving effect thereto; and
(B)    the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects (or if qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in all respects) on and as of the date of such extension and after giving effect thereto, as though made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date).
(vi)    On or before the Commitment Termination Date of each Non-Extending Lender, the Borrower shall pay in full (i) the principal of and interest on all of the Revolving Loans made by such Non-Extending Lender to the Borrower hereunder and (ii) all other amounts owing to such Lender hereunder.

11863223v8 24740.00050

As of the Closing Date, there is no fact known to the Borrower that has, or would reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect, which fact has not been set forth herein, in the financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries furnished to the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, or in any certificate, opinion or other written statement made or furnished by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders.

No proceeds of any Credit Extension will be used, directly or indirectly, by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to purchase or carry any Margin Stock, to extend credit for such purpose or for any other purpose, in each case that would violate Regulations T, U or X or any provision of the Exchange Act as if such regulations or statute applied to such Person.  After applying the proceeds of any Credit Extension, not more than 25 percent of the assets (as determined by any reasonable method) of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is represented by Margin Stock.
4.11    No Material Adverse Effect.  Since December 31, 2018, there has not occurred any event, condition or state of facts, either individually or in the aggregate, that has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
4.12    Financial Matters.  
(a)    The Borrower has heretofore made available to the Administrative Agent copies of the audited consolidated balance sheets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal years ending December 31, 2016, December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2018 and the related statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the fiscal years or period then ended, together with the opinion of Ernst & Young LLP thereon.  Such consolidated financial statements (A) have been prepared in accordance with GAAP (subject, with respect to the unaudited financial statements, to the absence of notes required by GAAP and to normal year-end adjustments) and (B) present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and the results of their operations and their cash flows, as of the dates and for the periods indicated.
(b)    The Borrower has heretofore made available to the Administrative Agent copies of the Annual Statements of each Insurance Subsidiary that is a Material Subsidiary as of December 31, 2016, 2017 and 2018 for the fiscal years then ended, each as filed with the relevant Insurance Regulatory Authority (collectively, the “Historical Statutory Statements”).  The Historical Statutory Statements (including, without limitation, the provisions made therein for investments and the valuation thereof, reserves, policy and contract claims and statutory liabilities) have been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with SAP (except as may be reflected in the notes thereto), were in all material respects, in compliance with applicable Requirements of Law when filed and 

 75
11863223v8 24740.00050

present fairly in all material respects the financial condition of the respective Insurance Subsidiaries covered thereby as of the respective dates thereof and the results of operations, changes in capital and surplus and cash flows of the respective Insurance Subsidiaries covered thereby for the respective periods then ended.  Except for liabilities and obligations disclosed or provided for in the Historical Statutory Statements (including, without limitation, reserves, policy and contract claims and statutory liabilities), no Insurance Subsidiary that is a Material Subsidiary had, as of the date of its respective Historical Statutory Statements, any material liabilities or obligations of any nature whatsoever (whether absolute, contingent or otherwise and whether or not due) that, in accordance with SAP, would have been required to have been disclosed or provided for in such Historical Statutory Statements.

The Borrower and each Material Subsidiary thereof (i) has good and marketable title to all real property owned by it, (ii) holds interests as lessee under valid leases in full force and effect with respect to all material leased real and personal property used in connection with its business, and (iii) has good title to all of its other material properties and assets necessary or used in the ordinary course of its business, except, with respect to the foregoing clauses (i) – (iii), such defects in title that would be a Permitted Liens hereunder or would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
4.14    ERISA.  
(a)    The Borrower and each of its ERISA Affiliates is in compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA, and each Plan is and has been administered in compliance with all applicable Requirements of Law, including, without limitation, the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, in each case except where the failure so to comply, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No ERISA Event (i) has occurred within the five year period prior to the Closing Date, (ii) has occurred and is continuing, or (iii) to the knowledge of the Borrower, is reasonably expected to occur with respect to any Plan, except where the occurrence of ERISA Events, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No Plan has any Unfunded Pension Liability as of the most recent annual valuation date applicable thereto, and neither the Borrower nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has engaged in a transaction that could be subject to Section 4069 or 4212(c) of ERISA, except where the incurrence of any Unfunded Pension Liability or liability in connection with such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(b)    Neither the Borrower nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has any outstanding liability on account of a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan, and neither the Borrower nor any of its ERISA Affiliates would become subject to any liability under ERISA if any such Person were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the most recent valuation date, except where the incurrence of any such liabilities, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No Multiemployer Plan is “insolvent” within the meaning of such term under ERISA, except where the existence of such insolvency, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 76
11863223v8 24740.00050

(c)    The Borrower shall not use any of the “plan assets” (within the meaning of 29 CFR § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more of its Benefit Plans in connection with the Loans, the Letters of Credit or Commitments.
4.15    Compliance with Laws.

The assets, properties and business of the Borrower and each Material Subsidiary thereof are insured against such hazards and liabilities, under such coverages and in such amounts, as are customarily maintained by prudent companies similarly situated and under policies issued by insurers of recognized responsibility.
4.18    Senior Debt Status.  The Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement and each other Credit Document to which it is a party rank pari passu as to priority of payment and in all other respects with all other material unsecured and unsubordinated Indebtedness of the Borrower, with the exception of those obligations that are mandatorily preferred by law and not by contract.
4.19    Anti-Corruption Laws; Anti-Money Laundering Laws and Sanctions.  
(a)    None of (i) the Borrower, any Subsidiary, or, to the knowledge of the Borrower or such Subsidiary, any of their respective directors, officers or employees, or (ii) to the knowledge of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, any agent or representative of the Borrower or any Subsidiary that will act in any capacity in connection with or benefit from this Agreement, (A) is a Sanctioned Person or currently the subject or target of any Sanctions, (B) is controlled by or is acting on behalf of a Sanctioned Person, (C) is under administrative, civil or criminal investigation for an alleged violation of, or received notice from or made a voluntary disclosure to any governmental entity regarding a possible violation of, Anti-Corruption Laws, Anti-Money Laundering Laws or Sanctions by a governmental authority that enforces Sanctions or any Anti-Corruption Laws or Anti-Money Laundering Laws or (D) directly or indirectly derives revenues from investments in, or transactions with, Sanctioned Persons.  
(b)    Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has implemented and maintains in effect policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents with all applicable Anti-Corruption Laws, Anti-Money Laundering Laws and Sanctions.

 77
11863223v8 24740.00050

Upon and at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Credit Document to such Lender or such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Credit Document and although such obligations of the Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender or such Issuing Bank different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.22 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, 

 91
11863223v8 24740.00050

the Issuing Banks and the Lenders (including the Swingline Lender), and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.  The rights of each Lender, the Issuing Banks and their respective Affiliates under this Section 8.3 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have.  Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
ARTICLE IX
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
9.1    Appointment and Authority.  Each of the Lenders (for purposes of this Article, references to the Lenders shall also mean the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lender) hereby irrevocably appoints Wells Fargo to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Except as set forth in Section 9.6, the provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor any other Unum Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.  It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any other similar term) herein or in any other Credit Document with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations under agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead, such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.
9.2    Rights as a Lender.  The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.  Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
9.3    Exculpatory Provisions.  The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:
(a)    shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

 92
11863223v8 24740.00050

(b)    shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Credit Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Credit Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Credit Document or applicable law, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and
(c)    shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.5 and 8.2) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment.  The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent in writing by the Borrower or a Lender.
The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.
9.4    Reliance by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of any Credit Extension that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or any Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall 

 93
11863223v8 24740.00050

have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Credit Extension.  The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
9.5    Delegation of Duties.  The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Credit Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.
9.6    Resignation of Administrative Agent.  
(a)    The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower and subject to the approval of the Borrower (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above.  Regardless of whether a successor has been appointed or has accepted such appointment, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
(b)    With effect from the Resignation Effective Date, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Credit Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for in Section 9.6(a).  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to 

 94
11863223v8 24740.00050

and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent), and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents.  The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.  After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.1 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
9.7    Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
9.8    Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents, sub-agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10 and 10.1) allowed in such judicial proceeding and (ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same.  Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents, sub-agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 2.10 or 10.1.
9.9    Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender.  The provisions of this Article IX (other than Section 9.2) shall apply to Wells Fargo as the Fronting Bank, LC Agent and the Swingline Lender 

 95
11863223v8 24740.00050

mutatis mutandis to the same extent as such provisions apply to the Administrative Agent.
9.10    No Other Duties, etc.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Bookrunners, Arrangers, Co-Syndication Agents, Co-Documentation Agents or other agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, except in their respective capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lender or a Lender hereunder.
9.11    Lender ERISA Matters.
(a)    Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, each Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower, that at least one of the following is and will be true: 
(i)    such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments or this Agreement;

(iii)    (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement; or 
(iv)    such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender. 
(b)    In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) 

 96
11863223v8 24740.00050

is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, each Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower, that none of the Administrative Agent, any Arranger nor any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Credit Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

No Indemnitee referred to in Section 10.1(b) shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Platform, IntraLinks, SyndTrak or similar systems) in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages (as opposed to indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages, losses or expenses) resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
(e)    All amounts due under this Section shall be payable by the Borrower upon demand therefor.

 99
11863223v8 24740.00050

Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.  Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
(c)    Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document in any court referred to in Section 10.2(b).  Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
(d)    Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.4.  Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

(b)    Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and internet or intranet websites such as the Platform) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or the Fronting Bank pursuant to Article II if such Lender or the Fronting Bank, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication and the Administrative Agent has so notified the Borrower.  The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communication pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.  Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent by 8:00 p.m., such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or other communications posted to an internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

10.5    Amendments, Waivers, etc.  No amendment, modification, waiver or discharge or termination of, or consent to any departure by the Borrower from, any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be effective unless in a writing signed by the Borrower and the Required Lenders (or by the Administrative Agent at the direction or with the consent of the Required Lenders), and then the same shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such amendment, modification, waiver, discharge, termination or consent shall:
(a)    unless agreed to in writing by each Lender directly affected thereby, (i) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or the amount of any Reimbursement Obligation, (ii) reduce the rate of or forgive any interest thereon (provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be required to waive the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), (iii) reduce or forgive any fees hereunder (other than fees payable to the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank or any Arranger for its own account), (iv) extend the final scheduled maturity date or any other scheduled date for the payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan (including the Commitment Termination Date), (v) extend the expiry date of any Letter of Credit beyond the Final Maturity Date, or extend the time of payment of any fees hereunder (other than fees payable to the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank or any Arranger for its own account), or (vi) increase any Commitment of any such Lender over the amount thereof in effect or extend the maturity thereof (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 3.2 or of any Default or Event of Default, if agreed to by the Required Lenders, or all Lenders (as may be required hereunder with respect to such waiver), shall not constitute such an increase);
(b)    unless agreed to by all of the Lenders, (i) change the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, (ii) change or waive any provision of Section 2.13(e), (iii) change or waive any provision of Section 2.16 or any other provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document requiring pro rata treatment of any Lenders in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, or (iv) change any provision of this Section 10.5;

and provided further that the Fee Letters may only be amended or modified, and any rights thereunder waived, in a writing signed by the parties thereto, and provided further, that the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may, without the consent of any Lender, enter into amendments or modifications to this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents or enter into additional Credit Documents as the Administrative Agent reasonably deems appropriate in order to implement any 

 102
11863223v8 24740.00050

Replacement Rate or otherwise effectuate the terms of Section 2.17(f) in accordance with the terms of Section 2.17(f).  
Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above, each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersedes the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein.  
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.5, if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified (each in its sole discretion) an obvious error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of the Credit Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Credit Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five Business Days following the posting of such amendment to the Lenders.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent on its behalf, and without further consent of any Lender (but with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent), to (x) amend and restate this Agreement if, upon giving effect to such amendment and restatement, such Lender shall no longer be a party to this Agreement (as so amended and restated), the Commitments of such Lender shall have terminated, such Lender shall have no other commitment or other obligation hereunder and shall have been paid in full all principal, interest and other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that (A) the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender, and (B) any amendment, waiver, or consent hereunder which requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms disproportionately and adversely affects any such Defaulting Lender relative to other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.
10.6    Successors and Assigns.  
(a)    The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6(e) or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.6(f) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 10.6(e) and, to the extent expressly 

 103

(i)    (A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Credit Extensions at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned, or (B) in any case not described in clause (A) above, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Credit Extensions of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than (y)  $5,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of a Commitment (which for this purpose includes Revolving Loans outstanding), or (z) the entire Swingline Commitment and the full amount of the outstanding Swingline Loans, in the case of Swingline Loans, in any case, treating assignments to two or more Approved Funds under common management as one assignment for purposes of the minimum amounts, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);
(ii)    each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Commitment and/or Credit Extensions assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to rights in respect of Swingline Loans;
(iii)    no consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (B) of Section 10.6(b)(i) and, in addition:
(A)    the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (y) a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (z) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received notice thereof; 
(B)    the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; and

 104
11863223v8 24740.00050

(C)    the consent of the Fronting Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Participated Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding).
(iv)    the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 for each assignment and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower such documentation required pursuant to Section 2.18(g);
(v)    no such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B); and
(vi)    no such assignment shall be made to a natural person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural Person).
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.6(d), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17(a), 2.17(b), 2.18, 2.19 and 10.1 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.  If requested by or on behalf of the assignee, the Borrower, at its own expense, will execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a new Note or Notes to the order of the assignee (and, if the assigning Lender has retained any portion of its rights and obligations hereunder, to the order of the assigning Lender), prepared in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 2.4 as necessary to reflect, after giving effect to the assignment, the Commitment and/or outstanding Credit Extensions, as the case may be, of the assignee and (to the extent of any retained interests) the assigning Lender.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.6(b) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.6(e).

 105
11863223v8 24740.00050

(c)    In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable Ratable Share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full Ratable Share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans in accordance with its Credit Exposure.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
(d)    The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address for notices referred to in Schedule 1.1(a) a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender.  The Register shall be available for inspection by each of the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(e)    Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural Person) or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Credit Extensions owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Agent, the Fronting Bank and the Swingline Lender and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification 

 106
11863223v8 24740.00050

described in Section 10.5(a) and clause (i) of Section 10.5(b) that affects such Participant.  The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17(a), 2.17(b), 2.18 and 2.19 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.6(b); provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.20 as if it were an assignee under Section 10.6(b) and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.17 or 2.18, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.  Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.20 with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.3 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.16(b) as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other Obligations under the Credit Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Credit Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(f)    Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Notes, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(g)    The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or any state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
(h)    Any Lender or Participant may, in connection with any assignment, participation, pledge or proposed assignment, participation or pledge pursuant to this Section 10.6, disclose to the Eligible Assignee, Participant or pledgee or proposed Eligible Assignee, Participant or pledgee any information relating to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries furnished to it by or on behalf of any 

 107
11863223v8 24740.00050

other party hereto, provided that such Eligible Assignee, Participant or pledgee or proposed Eligible Assignee, Participant or pledgee agrees in writing to keep such information confidential to the same extent required of the Lenders under Section 10.11.
(i)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Wells Fargo assigns all of its Commitment and Credit Extensions in accordance with this Section 10.6, Wells Fargo may resign as Fronting Bank, Swingline Lender and L/C Agent upon written notice to the Borrower and the Lenders.  Upon any such notice of resignation, the Borrower shall have the right to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Fronting Bank, Swingline Lender and L/C Agent; provided that no failure by the Borrower to make such appointment shall affect the resignation of Wells Fargo as Fronting Bank, Swingline Lender and L/C Agent.  Wells Fargo shall retain all of the rights and obligations of the Fronting Bank, Swingline Lender and L/C Agent hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by it or Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation and all obligations of the Borrower and the Lenders with respect thereto.
10.7    No Waiver.  The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents are cumulative and in addition to, and not exclusive of, all other rights and remedies available at law, in equity or otherwise.  No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default.  No course of dealing between the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders or their agents or employees shall be effective to amend, modify or discharge any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or to constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default.  No notice to or demand upon the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the right of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to exercise any right or remedy or take any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.
10.8    Survival.  All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made by or on behalf of the Borrower in this Agreement and in the other Credit Documents shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery hereof or thereof and the making and repayment of the Loans and the Issuance of Letters of Credit and repayment of all Reimbursement Obligations, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan, Letter of Credit or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.  In addition, notwithstanding anything herein or under applicable law to the contrary, the provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents relating to indemnification or payment of costs and expenses, including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 2.17(a), 2.17(b), 2.18, 2.19, 10.1 and Article IX, shall survive the payment in full of all Credit Extensions, the termination of the Commitments and all Letters of Credit, and any termination of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents or any provision hereof or thereof.

 108
11863223v8 24740.00050

10.9    Severability.  To the extent any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by or invalid under the applicable law of any jurisdiction, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity and only in such jurisdiction, without prohibiting or invalidating such provision in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions of this Agreement in any jurisdiction.  Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.9, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.
10.10    Construction.  The headings of the various articles, sections and subsections of this Agreement and the table of contents have been inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and in the other Credit Documents, in the event of any inconsistency or conflict between any provision of this Agreement and any provision of any of the other Credit Documents, the provision of this Agreement shall control.
10.11    Confidentiality.  Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agree to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable Requirements of Law or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (g) on a confidential basis, to (i) any rating agency in connection with the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the facilities created hereunder or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the facilities created hereunder; (h) with the consent of the Borrower or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank any Lender, or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates that is not, to such Person’s knowledge, subject to confidentiality obligations to the Borrower.

basis prior to disclosure by any Unum Party.

Except as provided in Section 3.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement in electronic format (e.g., “pdf” or “tif” file format) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Credit Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (a) (i) no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and any Arranger, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Swingline Lender or any Lender is intended to be or has been created in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Credit Documents, irrespective of whether any Arranger, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Swingline Lender or any Lender has advised or is advising the Borrower or any Subsidiary on other matters, (ii) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the Lenders, on the other hand, (iii) the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent that it has deemed appropriate and (iv) the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Credit Documents; and (b) (i) the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the Lenders each is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person; (ii) none of the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the Lenders has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents; and (iii) the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged, for their own accounts or the accounts of customers, in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and none of the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the Lenders has any obligation to disclose any of such 

 110
11863223v8 24740.00050

interests to the Borrower or its Affiliates.  To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against any of the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the Lenders with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby. 
10.14    Judgment Currency.  If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court or in respect of any tender made by the Borrower, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under any other Credit Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given or such tender is made.  The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall, notwithstanding any tender or judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Lender of any sum received or adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency.

FORM OF SYNDICATED LETTER OF CREDIT

Issue Date     
Clean, Irrevocable Unconditional Letter of Credit No.:     
To Beneficiary:(Name)     
(Address)     
Dear Sir or Madam:
The banks and financial institutions set forth in Schedule 1 to this Syndicated Letter of Credit (the “Banks”) have established through Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, acting as the letter of credit agent (in such capacity, the “L/C Agent” and attorney-in-fact for the Banks), this clean, irrevocable, and unconditional (except as expressly otherwise stated herein) letter of credit (this “Letter of Credit”) in your favor as beneficiary (the “Beneficiary”) at the request and for the account of Unum Group (the “Account Party”) for drawings up to U.S. $____________ effective immediately and expiring at the L/C Agent’s address at Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, 401 Linden Street, First Floor, Winston-Salem, North Carolina, 27101, Attention: International Operations, Standby Letters of Credit, NC 6034 (or any other office which may be designated by the L/C Agent by written notice delivered to you) no later than 5:00 p.m., Charlotte, North Carolina time, on __________________ (the “Expiration Date”[, as such date may be extended as set forth below]1).
The Banks severally undertake to promptly honor your sight draft(s) drawn on us, duly endorsed on the reverse side thereof by the Beneficiary expressly specifying the Letter of Credit No. ____________, for all or any part of this credit upon presentation of your draft drawn on us at the L/C Agent’s office specified in the first paragraph hereof on a Business Day on or prior to the Expiration Date.
The term “Beneficiary” as used herein includes any successor by operation of law of the named Beneficiary including, without limitation, any liquidator, rehabilitator, receiver or conservator.  The term “Business Day” means a day which is not a Saturday, Sunday, or any other day on which banking institutions in Winston-Salem, North Carolina or the city in which the payment office of the L/C Agent is located are required by law to be closed.
Except as stated herein, this undertaking is not subject to any condition, requirement or qualification.  The Banks’ several obligations under this Letter of Credit shall be their individual obligations, and are in no way contingent upon reimbursement with respect thereto, or upon their ability to perfect any lien or security interest.  This Letter of Credit sets forth in full all obligations of the Banks.

11885685v5 

Each of the Banks agrees, for itself alone and not jointly with any other Bank, to honor a draft drawn by you and presented to the L/C Agent in an amount not to exceed the aggregate amount available to be drawn hereunder multiplied by such Bank’s percentage obligation as set forth on Schedule 1 to this Letter of Credit (the “Percentage Obligations”) and in accordance with the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.  The obligations of the Banks hereunder shall be several and not joint, and multiple draws shall be available under this Letter of Credit.  Upon the transfer by a Bank to the L/C Agent for your account of the amount specified in a draft drawn on such Bank hereunder, such Bank shall be fully discharged of its obligations under this Letter of Credit with respect to such draft, such Bank shall not be obligated thereafter to make any further payments under this Letter of Credit with respect to such draft, and the amount available to be drawn thereafter under this Letter of Credit shall be automatically and permanently reduced by an amount equal to the amount of such draft.  The failure of any Bank to make funds available to the L/C Agent for payment under this Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation hereunder to make funds available to the L/C Agent.  Neither the L/C Agent nor any Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to honor its share of any drawings hereunder or to make funds available to the L/C Agent.
Except to the extent the amount of this Letter of Credit may be increased, this Letter of Credit cannot be modified or revoked without your written consent, provided that this Letter of Credit may be amended to delete a Bank or add a Bank or change Percentage Obligations so long as such amendment does not decrease the amount of this Letter of Credit, and need only be signed by the L/C Agent.
Wells Fargo Bank, National Association has been appointed by the Banks, has been granted the authority by the Banks to act as, and has been irrevocably granted a power of attorney by the Banks to act as L/C Agent for the Banks obligated under this Letter of Credit.  As L/C Agent, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association has full power of attorney from such Banks to act on their behalf hereunder to (i) execute and deliver this Letter of Credit, (ii) receive drafts, other demands for payment and other documents presented by you hereunder, (iii) determine whether such drafts, demands and documents are in compliance with the terms of this Letter of Credit, and (iv) notify the Banks and the Account Party that a valid drawing has been made and the date that the related payment under this Letter of Credit is to be made; provided, however, that the L/C Agent shall have no obligation or liability for any payment under this Letter of Credit (other than payment to you of such funds as have been made available to it by the Banks pursuant to your draw).
[This Letter of Credit expires on the Expiration Date, but will automatically renew without amendment for one year from the Expiration Date or any future expiration date (as applicable, the “New Expiration Date”) unless at least [30] [60] [90] days prior to such Expiration Date or New Expiration Date, the L/C Agent notifies you by registered mail or courier delivery that this Letter of Credit will not renew.]2 
Only the Beneficiary may make drawings under the Letter of Credit, and this Letter of Credit is not transferable.

2.1      Organization, Good Standing and Qualification. The Company is a corporation
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and to own or lease its properties. The
Company is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or its ownership or leasing of property makes such qualification or leasing necessary unless the
failure to so qualify has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company’s Subsidiary is set forth on Exhibit 21.1 to its most recent Annual Report on Form
10-K, and the Company owns 80% of the outstanding equity of such Subsidiary and is its sole general partner. The Company’s Subsidiary 

  
 4 

 
is duly organized and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now
conducted. The Company’s Subsidiary is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or its ownership or leasing of property makes such qualification or
leasing necessary unless the failure to so qualify has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

2.2      Authorization. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority and
has taken all requisite corporate action necessary for, and no further action on the part of the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders is necessary for, (i) the authorization, execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents,

contractual rights with respect to the issuance by the Company of any securities of the Company, including, without limitation, the Shares. Except for stock options approved pursuant to Company stock-based compensation plans described in the SEC
Filings and securities exercisable for, convertible into or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company disclosed in the SEC Filings, there are no outstanding warrants, options, convertible securities or other rights, agreements or

applicable, and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder.

terms and provisions of, or constitute a default under, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or the Company’s Bylaws, both as in effect on the date hereof (true and complete copies of which have been made available to the Investors
through the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval system (the “EDGAR system”)), or (b) assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties in Section 3, any applicable statute,
rule, regulation or order of any governmental agency or body or any court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company or its Subsidiary, or any of their assets or properties, or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an
event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, result in the creation of any lien, encumbrance or other adverse claim upon any of the properties or assets of the Company or its Subsidiary or give

Subsidiary have timely prepared and filed all material tax returns required to have been filed by them with all appropriate governmental agencies and timely paid all material taxes shown thereon or otherwise owed by them. There are no material

The Company and its Subsidiary have taken reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of the non-public portions of the Intellectual Property owned or exclusively licensed by the Company or its Subsidiary, except where failure to do so would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.

correspondence from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or any other federal, state, local or foreign governmental or regulatory authority requiring the termination, suspension or material modification of any studies, tests or preclinical or
clinical trials conducted by or on behalf of the Company.

any real property that it owns or operates, and has not received any written notice or claim it is liable for any off-site disposal or contamination pursuant to any Environmental Laws, which violation,
release, notice, claim, or liability would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material 

  
 9 

 
Adverse Effect, and to the Company’s Knowledge, there is no pending or threatened investigation that would reasonably be expected to lead to such a claim. 

2.17      Legal Proceedings. There are no legal, governmental or regulatory

comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing (or to the extent corrected by a subsequent restatement) and present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of the dates shown and its consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown, subject in the case of unaudited financial statements to normal year-end audit adjustments, and such consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during the periods

except as permitted by Form 10-Q under the 1934 Act). 

2.19      Insurance. The Company maintains in full force and effect insurance coverage
that is customary for comparably situated companies for the business being conducted and properties owned or leased by the Company, and the Company reasonably believes such insurance coverage to be adequate against all liabilities, claims and risks
against which it is customary for comparably situated companies to insure.

listing requirements. There are no proceedings pending or, to the Company’s Knowledge, threatened against the Company relating to the continued listing of the Common Stock on Nasdaq and the Company has not received any notice of, nor to the
Company’s Knowledge is there any reasonable basis for, the delisting of the Common Stock from Nasdaq.

contemplated by the Transaction Documents, any valid right, interest or claim against or upon the Company or an Investor for any commission, fee or other compensation pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into by or on
behalf of the Company. No Investor shall have any obligation with respect to any fees, or with respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees, in each case of the type contemplated by this Section 2.21
that may be due in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Transaction Documents.

sale of any of the Shares. 
 2.23      No Integrated Offering. Neither the Company
nor any Person acting on its behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any Company security or solicited any offers to buy any Company security, under circumstances that would adversely affect reliance by the Company on
Section 4(a)(2) and Regulation D for the exemption from registration for the transactions contemplated hereby or would require registration of the Shares under the 1933 Act. 

2.24      Private Placement. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties
of the Investors set forth in Section 3, the offer and sale of the Shares to the Investors as contemplated hereby is exempt from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. The issuance and sale of the Shares does not
contravene the rules and regulations of Nasdaq.

Practices. Neither the Company, nor to the Company’s Knowledge, any director, officer, agent, employee or other Person acting on behalf of the Company has, in the course of its actions for, or on behalf of, the Company (i) used any

the executive officers or directors of the Company and, to the Company’s Knowledge, none of the employees of the Company is presently a party to any transaction with the Company (other than as holders of stock options and/or restricted stock,
and for services as employees, officers and directors), including any contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring
payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the Company’s Knowledge, any entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee or partner. 

2.27      Internal Controls. The Company has established and maintains disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the 1934 Act), which are designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company,
including its Subsidiary, is made known to the Company’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer by others within those entities. Since the end of the Company’s most recent audited fiscal year, there have been no
material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (whether or not remediated) and no change in the Company’s internal 

  
 11 

 
control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or would reasonably be expected to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company is
not aware of any change in its internal controls over financial reporting that has occurred during its most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or would reasonably be expected to materially affect, the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting. 
 2.28      Manipulation of Price. The Company has not
taken, nor will it take, directly or indirectly any action designed to stabilize or manipulate the price of the Common Stock or any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Shares. 

2.29      No Bad Actors. No “bad actor” disqualifying event described in Rule
506(d)(1)(i)-(viii) of the 1933 Act (a “Disqualification Event”) is applicable to the Company or, to the Company’s Knowledge, any Company Covered Person, except for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule
506(d)(2)(ii–iv) or (d)(3) is applicable. 
 2.30      Investment Company. The
Company is not required to be registered as, and is not an Affiliate of, and immediately following the Closing will not be required to register as, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended. 
 Section 3.      Representations and Warranties of the
Investors. Each of the Investors hereby severally, and not jointly, represents and warrants to the Company that: 

3.1      Organization. Such Investor is either an individual or a duly incorporated or
organized and validly existing corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other legal entity, has all requisite corporate, partnership or limited liability company power and authority, as applicable, to enter into and consummate the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder, and to invest in the Shares pursuant to this Agreement, and, if an entity, is in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of
its incorporation or organization. 
 3.2      Authorization. The execution, delivery
and performance by such Investor of the Transaction Documents to which such Investor is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership, limited liability company or similar action, as applicable, on the part of the
Investor, and each has been duly executed and when delivered will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of such Investor, enforceable against such Investor in accordance with their respective terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency,
fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability, relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, and general principles of equity. 

3.3      Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Shares to be received by such Investor
hereunder will be acquired for such Investor’s own account, not as nominee or agent, for the purpose of investment and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof in violation of the 1933 Act, and such Investor has no
present intention of selling, granting any 

  
 12 

 
participation in, or otherwise distributing the same in violation of the 1933 Act without prejudice, however, to such Investor’s right at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any
part of such Shares in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. The Shares are being purchased by such Investor in the ordinary course of its business. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed a representation or warranty by
such Investor to hold the Shares for any period of time. Such Investor is not a broker-dealer registered with the SEC under the 1934 Act or an entity engaged in a business that would require it to be so registered. 

3.4      Investment Experience. Such Investor acknowledges that it can bear the economic
risk and complete loss of its investment in the Shares and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment contemplated hereby. 

3.5      Disclosure of Information. Such Investor has had an opportunity to receive,
review and understand all information related to the Company requested by it and to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company regarding the Company, its business and the terms and conditions of the offering of the Shares, and has
conducted and completed its own independent due diligence. Such Investor acknowledges that copies of the SEC Filings are available on the EDGAR system. Based on the information such Investor has deemed appropriate, it has independently made its own
analysis and decision to enter into the Transaction Documents. Such Investor is relying exclusively on its own investment analysis and due diligence (including professional advice it deems appropriate) with respect to the execution, delivery and
performance of the Transaction Documents, the Shares and the business, condition (financial and otherwise), management, operations, properties and prospects of the Company, including but not limited to all business, legal, regulatory, accounting,
credit and tax matters. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigation conducted by such Investor shall modify, limit or otherwise affect such Investor’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties
contained in this Agreement. 
 3.6      Restricted Securities. Such Investor
understands that the Shares are characterized as “restricted securities” under the U.S. federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws
and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the 1933 Act only in certain limited circumstances. 

3.7      Legends. It is understood that, except as provided below, certificates
evidencing the Shares (or uncertificated interests in the Shares) may bear the following or any similar legend: 

(a)      “THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH TRANSFER MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN

  
 13 

 
OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.” 

(b)      If required by the authorities of any state in connection with the issuance of sale of
the Shares, the legend required by such state authority. 
 3.8      Accredited
Investor. Such Investor is (a) an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D. Such Investor has executed and delivered to the Company a questionnaire in substantially the form attached hereto as
Exhibit C (the “Investor Questionnaire”), which such Investor represents and warrants is true, correct and complete. Such investor is a sophisticated institutional investor with sufficient knowledge and experience in
investing in private equity transactions to properly evaluate the risks and merits of its purchase of the Shares. 

3.9      No General Solicitation. Such Investor did not learn of the investment in the
Shares as a result of any general or public solicitation or general advertising, or publicly disseminated advertisements or sales literature, including (a) any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper,
magazine, website, or similar media, or broadcast over television or radio, or (b) any seminar or meeting to which such Investor was invited by any of the foregoing means of communications. 

3.10      Brokers and Finders. No Person will have, as a result of the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents, any valid right, interest or claim against or upon the Company or an Investor for any commission, fee or other compensation pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into by or on
behalf of such Investor. 
 3.11      Short Sales and Confidentiality Prior to the Date
Hereof. Other than consummating the transactions contemplated hereunder, such Investor has not, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Investor, directly or indirectly executed any purchases or sales,
including Short Sales, of the securities of the Company during the period commencing as of the time that such Investor was first contacted by the Company or any other Person regarding the transactions contemplated hereby and ending immediately prior
to the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Investor that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Investor’s assets and the portfolio managers have no
direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Investor’s assets, the representation set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio
manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Shares covered by this Agreement. Such Investor, its Affiliates and authorized representatives and advisors who are aware of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents have
maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to such Investor in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (including the existence and terms of such transactions). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for
avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect to the 

  
 14 

 
identification of the availability of, or securing of, available shares to borrow in order to effect Short Sales or similar transactions in the future. 

3.12      No Government Recommendation or Approval. Such Investor understands that no
United States federal or state agency, or similar agency of any other country, has reviewed, approved, passed upon, or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Company or the purchase of the Shares. 

3.13      No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by such Investor of the
Transaction Documents and the consummation by such Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents of such Investor or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a
default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which such Investor is
a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws) applicable to such Investor, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such
conflicts, defaults, rights or violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of such Investor to perform its obligations hereunder. 

3.14      Residency. Such Investor’s office in which its investment decision with
respect to the Shares was made is located at the address immediately below such Investor’s name on its signature page hereto. 

3.15      Financial Capability. Such Investor has immediately available funds necessary
to consummate the Closing on the terms and conditions contemplated by this Agreement. 

Section 4.      Covenants. 

4.1      Legend Removal.  

(a)      In connection with any sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of the Shares
by an Investor pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to any other exemption under the 1933 Act such that the purchaser acquires freely tradable shares and upon compliance by the Investor with the requirements of this Agreement, if requested by the
Investor, the Company shall cause the transfer agent for the Common Stock (the “Transfer Agent”) to remove any restrictive legends related to the book entry account holding such Shares and make a new, unlegended entry for such book
entry Shares sold or disposed of without restrictive legends within two Trading Days of any such request therefor from such Investor, provided that the Company has timely received from the Investor customary representations and other
documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company in connection therewith. 

(b)      Subject to receipt from the Investor by the Company and the Transfer Agent of
customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Transfer Agent in 

  
 15 

 
connection therewith, upon the earliest of such time as the Shares (i) have been sold or transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement, (ii) have been sold pursuant to
Rule 144, or (iii) are eligible for resale under Rule 144(b)(1) or any successor provision (such earliest date, the “Effective Date”), the Company shall, in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 4.1(b) and within three Trading Days of any request therefor from an Investor accompanied by such customary and reasonably acceptable documentation referred to above, (A) deliver to the Transfer Agent
irrevocable instructions that the Transfer Agent shall make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry Shares, and (B) cause its counsel to deliver to the Transfer Agent one or more opinions to the effect that the removal of such legends in
such circumstances may be effected under the 1933 Act if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Company agrees that following the Effective Date or at such time as
such legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1, it will, within three Trading Days of the delivery by an Investor to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate representing shares issued with a restrictive
legend and receipt from the Investor by the Company and the Transfer Agent of the customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Transfer Agent in connection therewith that is referred to above,
deliver or cause to be delivered to such Investor a certificate representing such Shares (or uncertificated interest therein) that is free from all restrictive and other legends. Shares subject to legend removal hereunder may be transmitted by the
Transfer Agent to the Investor by crediting the account of the Investor’s prime broker with the DTC system as directed by such Investor. The Company shall be responsible for the fees of its Transfer Agent and all DTC fees associated with such
issuance. 
 (c)      Each Investor, severally and not jointly with the other Investors,
agrees with the Company (i) that such Investor will sell any Shares pursuant to either the registration requirements of the 1933 Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, (ii) that if Shares
are sold pursuant to a registration statement, they will be sold in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein and (iii) that if, after the effective date of the registration statement covering the resale of the Shares, such
registration statement is not then effective and the Company has provided notice to such Investor to that effect, such Investor will sell Shares only in compliance with an exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. 

4.2      Short Sales and Confidentiality After the Date Hereof. Each Investor covenants
that neither it nor any Affiliates acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any Short Sales during the period from the date hereof until the earlier of such time as (i) the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement are first publicly announced or (ii) this Agreement is terminated in full. Each Investor covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company, such Investor will
maintain (and will cause its Affiliates, authorized representatives and advisors who are aware of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents) to maintain the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (including the existence and terms of such transactions). Each 

  
 16 

 
Investor understands and acknowledges that the SEC currently takes the position that coverage of Short Sales of shares of the Common Stock “against the box” prior to effectiveness of a
resale registration statement with securities included in such registration statement would be a violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act, as set forth in Item 239.10 of the Securities Act Rules Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations compiled
by the Office of Chief Counsel, Division of Corporation Finance, and covenants that neither it nor any Affiliates acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any such Short Sales. 

Section 5.      Conditions to Closing. 

5.1      Conditions to the Investors’ Obligations. The obligation of
each Investor to purchase Shares at the Closing is subject to the fulfillment to such Investor’s satisfaction, on or prior to the Closing Date, of the following conditions, any of which may be waived by such Investor (as to itself only):

Section 2 hereof shall be true and correct as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent any such representation or warranty expressly speaks as of an earlier

Closing Date. 
 (b)      The Company shall have obtained any and all consents, permits,

justice or magistrate, including any bankruptcy court or judge, or any order of or by any governmental authority, shall have been issued, and no action or proceeding shall have been instituted by any governmental authority, enjoining or preventing

and issue Shares at the Closing is subject to the fulfillment to the satisfaction of the Company on or prior to the Closing Date of the following conditions, any of which may be waived by the Company: 

(a)      The representations and warranties made by the Investors in
Section 3 hereof shall be true and correct as of the date hereof, and shall be true and correct as of the Closing Date with the same force and effect as if they had been made on and as of such date. The Investors shall have
performed in all material respects all obligations and covenants herein required to be performed by them on or prior to the Closing Date. 

(b)       The Investors shall have executed and delivered the Registration Rights Agreement and
each Investor Questionnaire.

Company if any of the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 shall have become incapable of fulfillment, and shall not have been waived by the Company;

Section 5.1 shall have become incapable of fulfillment, and shall not have been waived by the Investor; or 

(iv)      By either the Company or any Investor (with respect to itself only) if the Closing

 provided, however, that, except in the case of clause (i) above,
the party seeking to terminate its obligation to effect the Closing shall not then be in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or the other Transaction

  
 18 

 
Documents if such breach has resulted in the circumstances giving rise to such party’s seeking to terminate its obligation to effect the Closing. 

(b)      In the event of termination by the Company or any Investor of its obligations to
effect the Closing pursuant to this Section 5.3, written notice thereof shall be given to the other Investors by the Company and the other Investors shall have the right to terminate their obligations to effect the Closing
upon written notice to the Company and the other Investors. Nothing in this Section 5.3 shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or
the other Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. 

Section 6.      Miscellaneous. 

6.1      Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall inure

breach hereunder by any Investor or the Company, respectively, shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other provision. No delay or omission by a party in exercising or availing itself of any right, power or
privilege hereunder shall preclude the later exercise of any such right, power or privilege by such party. No waiver shall be effective unless made in writing with specific reference to the relevant provision(s) of this Agreement and signed by a

6.10      Severability. If one or more of the terms or provisions of this Agreement is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void, invalid, or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction, such holding shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the 

  
 20 

 
remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the void, invalid, or unenforceable term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction, and the term
or provision shall be considered severed from this Agreement solely for such situation and solely in such jurisdiction, unless the void, invalid, or unenforceable term or provision is of such essential importance to this Agreement that it is to be
reasonably assumed that the parties hereto would not have entered into this Agreement without the void, invalid, or unenforceable term or provision. If the final judgment of such court declares that any term or provision hereof is void, invalid, or
unenforceable, the parties hereto parties hereto agree to: (a) reduce the scope, duration, area, or applicability of the term or provision or to delete specific words or phrases to the minimum extent necessary to cause such term or provision as
so reduced or amended to be enforceable; and (b) make a good-faith effort to replace any void, invalid, or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision such that the objectives contemplated by the parties
hereto when entering this Agreement may be realized. 
 6.11      Entire Agreement.
This Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and any other written or oral agreement relating to the

that any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder
brought by another party hereto or its successors or assigns, shall be brought and determined exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery, or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any federal
court within the State of Delaware, or, if both the Delaware Court of Chancery and the federal courts within the State of Delaware decline to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any other state court within the State of Delaware, and, in
each case, any appellate court therefrom. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such action or proceeding for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of
the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the aforesaid courts. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
waives, and agrees not to assert as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts for any reason

 21 

 
in accordance with this Section 6.13, (b) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from the jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process
commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (c) to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable Law, any claim
that (i) the suit, action or proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper or (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or
by such courts. Each of the parties hereto agrees that service of process upon such party in any such action or proceeding shall be effective if such process is given as a notice in accordance with Section 6.5. 

6.14      Publicity. Except as set forth below, no public release or announcement
concerning the transactions contemplated hereby shall be issued by any Investor without the prior consent of the Company, except as such release or announcement may be required by law or the applicable rules or regulations of any securities exchange
or securities market, in which case the Investors shall allow the Company reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Investor may identify the Company and the value of
such Investor’s security holdings in the Company in accordance with applicable investment reporting and disclosure regulations or internal policies without prior notice to or consent from the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt,
filings pursuant to Sections 13 and 16 of the 1934 Act). 
 6.15      Survival. The
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for a period of one year following the Closing Date.

WAIVES TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY DIRECT OR INDIRECT ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY
(A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) MAKES
THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (C) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT EACH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 6.16.
