SEVERANCE PLAN

 

SECTION 1

 

Purpose

 

1.1                               Purpose.  The Tetra Tech, Inc. Change of Control Severance Plan (the “Plan”) has been established by Tetra Tech, Inc. (the “Company”), effective as of March 26, 2018, to promote the long-term financial interests of the Company and its shareholders by reducing the risk of departures and distractions of such employees in a Change of Control situation which would be detrimental to the Company and its shareholders.  Capitalized terms not defined in the body of the Plan are set forth in Exhibit A hereto.

 

SECTION 2

 

Participation

 

2.1                               Participation.  Except as otherwise provided by the Board of Directors of the Company, or the Compensation Committee thereof (the Board or the Compensation Committee, the “Administrator”), the Chief Executive Officer, Senior Vice Presidents and Executive Vice Presidents who are also officers within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended shall be eligible to participate in the Plan (such participating individuals, “Participants”).  The Administrator may delegate its authority under this Section 2.1 to the Chief Executive Officer with respect to Participants other than the Chief Executive Officer.

 

2.2                               Cessation of Participation.  Subject to the provisions of Section 3.1, an individual shall cease to be a Participant in, or have any rights under, the Plan as of the date, if any, prior to a Change of Control, on which he or she ceases to be employed by the Company and its subsidiaries.

 

SECTION 3

 

Severance Benefits

 

3.1                               Severance Benefits on Termination of the Participant’s Employment by the Participant for Good Reason or by the Company without Cause.  In the event that there is a Change of Control and: (i) a Participant’s employment is involuntarily terminated without Cause during either the ninety (90) day period preceding a Change of Control or the Employment Period; or (ii) a Participant resigns from employment for Good Reason within the Employment Period, then the Participant shall be entitled to receive the following severance benefits subject to Section 3.5.

 

(a)                                 A cash lump sum payment equal to the Participant’s Cash Severance Multiplier times the sum of his or her (i) Base Salary and (ii) Target Bonus;

 

 

(b)                                 A cash lump sum payment equal to a pro rata portion of the Participant’s Target Bonus determined by multiplying the amount the Target Bonus by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the then-current fiscal year through the termination date and the denominator of which is 365;

 

(c)                                  A cash lump sum payment equal to the Participant’s bonus for the fiscal year immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the employment termination occurs, if such bonus had not then been paid as of the date of the employment termination;

 

(d)                                 A cash lump sum payment equal to 102% of the cost of providing medical benefits (health, dental and vision) to the Participant and his or her dependents substantially similar to those provided to the Participant and his or her dependents immediately prior to the date of his or her employment termination for (i) 24 months, in the case of the Chief Executive Officer, (ii) 18 months, in the case of Executive Vice Presidents and (iii) 12 months, in the case of Senior Vice Presidents; and

 

(e)                                  All outstanding and unvested stock option and restricted stock awards subject solely to time-based vesting shall vest in full and any restrictions or forfeiture provisions applicable to restricted stock awards shall lapse, notwithstanding the provisions of any equity incentive plan or any award agreement(s) between the Participant and the Company thereunder.  Equity awards which vest in whole or part on achievement of performance criteria shall vest based on actual performance results. This Section 3.1(e) shall not alter the remaining term of any option. For purposes of the Plan, references to restricted stock shall also include restricted stock units. If the Participant’s employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause within ninety (90) days preceding a Change of Control, any acceleration of vesting for time-based awards shall occur on such Change in Control.

 

For avoidance of doubt, the amount of payments to be provided under this Section 3.1 shall be determined without regard to any action that constitutes Good Reason under subsection (i) of the definition of “Good Reason”.  In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Plan and the terms of any equity plan or individual agreement evidencing an equity award, the terms of the Plan (including, but not limited to, the definition of “Change in Control”) shall prevail.

 

3.2                               Severance Benefits on Termination of the Participant’s Employment Due to Death or Disability.  If during the Employment Period, the Participant’s employment is terminated as a result of his or her death or by the Company due to his or her Disability, the Company shall make the payments described in Sections 3.1(b) and 3.1(c), if any, to the Participant.

 

3.3                               Other Termination of Employment.  If the Participant’s employment is terminated for any reason other than as described in Sections 3.1 or 3.2, except as provided in Section 3.4, the Participant shall not receive any benefits under the Plan.

 

3.4                               Accrued Amounts.  Upon a termination of employment for any reason, the Company shall pay or provide the Participant (i) any unpaid base salary through the date of termination and any accrued leave balance in accordance with Company policy within thirty (30) days after employment termination; (ii) reimbursement for any unreimbursed expenses incurred through the date of termination; and (iii) all other payments and benefits to which the Participant may be entitled under the terms of any applicable compensation arrangement or benefit, equity or perquisite plan or program or grant or the Plan, including but not limited to any applicable pension, retirement and insurance benefits (collectively, “Accrued Amounts”).

3.5                               Conditions to Receipt of Change of Control Severance Benefits.

 

(a)                                 The Participant’s entitlement to receive the payments and benefits (including, without limitation, accelerated vesting of equity awards) hereunder shall be conditioned upon:

 

(i)                               The Participant exercising his or her best efforts to bring about whatever result the Board determines to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders relative to any impending Change of Control, and agreeing to use his or her best efforts at and after the occurrence of a Change of Control to effect an orderly and beneficial transfer of control to the party or parties comprising the new control group;

 

(ii)                            Delivery to the Company of a resignation from all offices, directorships and fiduciary positions with the Company, its affiliates and employee benefit plans;

 

(iii)                         In the case of benefits payable under Sections 3.1 and 3.2, the Participant’s compliance with the provisions of Section 5; and

 

(iv)                        In the case of benefits payable under Sections 3.1 and 3.2, delivery to the Company of an executed agreement and general release, executed by the Participant (or by an individual authorized to act on behalf of the Participant’s estate if the Participant is deceased or authorized to act on the Participant’s behalf by reason of the Participant’s Disability) which shall be executed substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (with such changes therein or additions thereto as needed under then applicable law to give effect to its intent and purpose) within thirty-five (35) days of presentation thereof by the Company to the Participant (and which is not subsequently revoked by the Participant or such authorized individual), and the Company shall be obligated to deliver a final form of release to the Participant’s address on file (including copy to counsel) within 5 business days after an employment termination.  Any benefits described in Section 3.1 and 3.2 are contingent on the release becoming effective and irrevocable by the 35th day following the termination of the Participant’s employment provided that the release agreement is timely delivered in accordance with this Section 3.5(a)(iv).  Payment of any benefits described in Section 3.1 and 3.2 will commence, if at all, on the 45th day following the Participant’s termination of employment and all payments described in Section 3.1 and 3.2 that otherwise would have been paid or provided during the 45 days following the Participant’s termination of employment, but for this sentence, shall instead be paid or provided on the 45th day following the Participant’s termination of employment.  For the avoidance of doubt, any bonus payment made pursuant to Section 3.1(b) shall be made in accordance with the schedule established under the bonus plan, program or arrangement under which it was established.  For the further avoidance of doubt, if the release is not effective on or before the 45th day following the Participant’s termination of employment, the Participant shall immediately forfeit any right to receive benefits under Section 3.1 or 3.2, as applicable.

 

3

 

(b)                                 If the Participant fails to materially comply with any obligation or covenant under Section 3.5(a) or is subsequently determined to have terminated employment for Cause, the Company’s obligations to make any payments or provide any benefits or other rights or entitlements to the Participant pursuant to any provision of the Plan shall immediately cease and the Participant shall be required to immediately repay to the Company all amounts theretofore paid or otherwise provided to the Participant pursuant to any section of the Plan. The Company may recover amounts under this Section 3.5(b) by set-off from any amounts otherwise due to the Participant under any other plan, program or arrangement if the Participant fails to make any required repayment within 15 business days after written demand to the Participant to the extent permitted by applicable law and which will not result in a violation of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

 

(c)                                  If the Participant terminates employment prior to a Change in Control and is treated as having had his employment terminated other than for Cause, his outstanding equity awards shall vest in accordance with Section 3.1(e) on the Change in Control, regardless of whether a release has become effective and irrevocable. If such release does not become effective and irrevocable as provided under Section 3.5(a), any stock options and restricted stock which accelerated under Section 3.1(e) shall be forfeited, as shall any money or other property received by, or otherwise set aside on behalf of, the Participant.

 

3.6                               Full Settlement, Mitigation. Except as provided in Sections 3.1(c) and 3.5(b), the Company’s obligation to make the payments provided for in the Plan and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other claim, right or action that the Company may have against the Participant or others. In no event shall the Participant be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to the Participant under any of the provisions of the Plan and, except as provided in Section 3.1(c), such amounts shall not be reduced whether or not the Participant obtains other employment.

 

3.7                               Certain Additional Payments by the Company.

 

(a)                                 It is the object of this paragraph to provide for the maximum after-tax income to each Executive Officer with respect to any payment or distribution to or for the benefit of the Executive Officer, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the Plan or any other plan, arrangement or agreement, that would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any similar federal, state or local tax that may hereafter be imposed (a “Payment”) (Section 4999 of the Code or any similar federal, state or local tax are collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”).  Accordingly, before any Payments are made under the Plan, a determination will be made as to which of two alternatives will maximize such Executive Officer’s after-tax proceeds, and the Company must notify the Executive Officer in writing of such determination.  The first alternative is the payment in full of all Payments potentially subject to the Excise Tax.  The second alternative is the payment of only a part of the Executive Officer’s Payments so that the Executive Officer receives the largest payment and benefits possible without causing the Excise Tax to be payable by the Executive Officer.  This second alternative is referred to in this paragraph as the “Limited Payment”.  The Executive Officer’s Payments shall be paid only to the extent permitted under the alternative determined to maximize the Executive Officer’s after-tax proceeds, and the Executive Officer shall have no rights to any greater payments on his or her Payments.

 

4

 

(b)                                 If the Executive Officer receives the Limited Payment, Payments shall be reduced in a manner that would not result in the Executive Officer incurring an additional tax under Section 409A to the extent possible.  However, the Company shall have no liability to the Participant in the event such reduction results in liability to him or her under Section 409A or through an Excise Tax.  Payments shall be reduced in the following order to the extent necessary to avoid imposition of the Excise Tax:

 

(i)                                     Payment of the cash severance amounts payable under Sections 3.1 and 3.2; then

 

(ii)                                  Equity awards other than options and stock appreciation rights that vest based on achievement of criteria other than (or in addition to) the Participant’s continued service and are not subject to Section 409A; then

 

(iii)                               Equity awards other than options and stock appreciation rights that vest based on achievement of criteria other than (or in addition to) the Participant’s continued service and are subject to Section 409A; then

 

(iv)                              Equity awards other than options and stock appreciation rights that vest solely based on the Participant’s continued service and are not subject to Section 409A; then

 

(v)                                 Equity awards other than options and stock appreciation rights that vest solely based on the Participant’s continued service and are subject to Section 409A; then

 

(vi)                              Equity awards which are option or stock appreciation rights.

 

(c)                                  All determinations required to be made under this Section 3.7 shall be made by the Company’s external auditor (the “Accounting Firm”) which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the Executive Officer within ten (10) business days of the termination of employment giving rise to benefits under the Plan, or such earlier time as is requested by Company.  All fees, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, the costs of retaining experts) of the Accounting Firm shall be borne by the Company.  In the event the Accounting Firm determines that the Payments shall be reduced, it shall furnish the Executive Officer with a written opinion to such effect.  The determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive Officer.

 

3.8                               Nonalienation.  The interests of a Participant under the Plan are not subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary.

SECTION 4

 

Miscellaneous

 

4.1                               Applicable Law.  The provisions of the Plan shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to the conflict of law provisions of any state to the extent not preempted by federal law.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, any action, demand, claim or counterclaim arising under this Plan shall be tried by a judge alone, and not by a civil jury.

 

4.2                               Severability.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of the Plan will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of the Plan, and the Plan will be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted (but only to the extent that such provision cannot be appropriately reformed or modified).

 

4.3                               Waiver of Breach.  No waiver of a breach of any provision of the Plan, or of compliance with any condition or provision of the Plan, will operate or be construed as a waiver by the non-breaching party of any subsequent breach of any similar or dissimilar provisions and conditions at the same or any prior or subsequent time.  The failure to take any action by reason of such breach will not deprive the non-breaching party of the right to take action at any time while such breach continues.

 

4.4                               Successors, Assumption of Plan.  The Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor to the Company.  The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company to expressly assume and agree to perform the Plan in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place.

 

4.5                               Disputes

 

(a)                                 Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with the Plan may, at the Participant’s election, be settled by arbitration, conducted before a panel of three arbitrators in Los Angeles County, California in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court having jurisdiction.

 

(b)                                 The Company agrees to pay as incurred, to the full extent permitted by law, all legal fees and expenses that the Participant may reasonably incur as a result of any contest (regardless of the outcome) by the Company, the Participant or others of the validity or enforceability of, or liability under, any provision of the Plan or any guarantee of performance thereof (including as a result of any contest by the Participant about the amount of any payment pursuant to the Plan), plus in each case, interest on any delayed payment at the applicable Federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code; provided, however, that the Company shall have no obligation to reimburse the Participant for, or pay on behalf of the Participant’s account, any fees or expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees or other Participant expenses associated with the Participant initiating such contest) that the Participant incurs in connection with a contest initiated by the Participant that is found by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbiter, as applicable, to be frivolous. In this circumstance, if the Company has previously paid any fees or expenses, the Participant shall promptly repay to the Company the amount of such fees and expenses.

 

6

 

4.6                               Notices.  Any notice or document required to be given under the Plan shall be considered to be given if delivered or mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, if to the Company, to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer at the Company’s principal business address or, if to a Participant, at the last address of such participant filed with the Company.

 

4.7                               Assignment.  The Company may assign its rights and obligations under the Plan (in whole or in part) to any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company; provided, however, that no such assignment shall relieve or limit the Company’s obligations hereunder.

 

4.8                               Section 409A.

 

(a)                                 To the extent required by Section 409A of the Code, all references to “termination of employment,” “Date of Termination” and correlative phrases for purposes of the Plan shall be construed to require a “separation from service” (as defined in Section 1.409A-1(h) of the Treasury regulations after giving effect to the presumptions contained therein).

 

(b)                                 To the extent that (i) any payments or benefits to which the Participant becomes entitled under the Plan, or under any other plan, program or agreement maintained by the Company, in connection with the Participant’s termination of employment with the Company constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code and (ii) the Participant is deemed at the time of such termination of employment to be a “specified employee” under Section 409A of the Code, then such payments or benefits shall not be made or commence until the earliest of (x) the expiration of the six (6) month and one day period measured from the date of the Participant’s separation from service (as defined in Section 4.8(a) above) from the Company; or (y) the date of the Participant’s death following such separation from service; provided, however, that such deferral shall only be effected to the extent required to avoid adverse tax treatment to the Participant, including (without limitation) the additional twenty percent (20%) tax for which the Participant would otherwise be liable under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code in the absence of such deferral. Upon the expiration of the applicable deferral period, any payments which would have otherwise been made during that period (whether in a single sum or in installments) in the absence of this paragraph shall be paid to the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary in one lump sum. For the purposes of this Section 4.8, the term “specified employee” means an individual determined by the Employer to be a specified employee under Treasury regulation Section 1.409A-1(i) in accordance with the policies of the Employer.

 

(c)                                  It is intended that each installment of any benefits or payments provided hereunder constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(i). It is further intended that payments hereunder satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemptions from the application of Section 409A of the Code (and any state law of similar effect) provided under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) (as a “short-term deferral”) and Section 1.409A-1(b)(9) (as “separation pay due to involuntary separation”). The parties intend that all the benefits and payments provided under the Plan shall be exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

 

7

 

(d)                                 To the extent any expense reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefit under the Plan is determined to be subject to Section 409A of the Code, the amount of any such expenses eligible for reimbursement, or the provision of any in-kind benefit, in one calendar year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year (except for any lifetime or other aggregate limitation applicable to medical expenses), in no event shall any expenses be reimbursed after the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Participant incurred such expenses, and in no event shall any right to reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefit be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

 

4.9                               Employment Status.  Nothing herein alters the status of any Participant as an employee at will of the Company whose employment may be terminated by either party upon notice.  This Plan shall not extinguish or modify any Participant’s obligations under any pre-existing plan or agreement with the Company.

 

4.10                        Non-Exclusivity of Rights.  Nothing in the Plan shall prevent or limit a Participant’s continuing or future participation in any plan, program, policy or practice provided by the Company or any of its affiliated companies and for which a Participant may qualify, nor shall anything herein limit or otherwise affect such rights as a Participant may have under any contract or agreement with the Company or any of its affiliated companies, except that all payments and benefits made under the Plan are made in lieu of any other severance compensation or benefits to which a Participant may otherwise be entitled under any plan, program, policy or arrangement of the Company.  Amounts that are vested benefits or that the Participant is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan, policy, practice or program of, or any contract or agreement with, the Company or any of its affiliated companies at or subsequent to the Date of Termination shall be payable in accordance with such plan, policy, practice or program or contract or agreement except to the extent explicitly modified by the Plan.

 

4.11                        Foreign Employees and Foreign Law Considerations.  The Administrator may, in its judgment, provide that a Foreign Participant shall participate in the Plan on such terms and conditions different from those specified in the Plan as may, in the judgment of the Administrator, be necessary or desirable to foster and promote the achievement of the purposes of the Plan and, in furtherance of such purposes, may make such modifications, amendments, procedures or subplans as may be necessary or advisable to comply with foreign legal or regulatory provisions.   Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, determine that Plan provisions inapplicable to Foreign Participants shall either not apply to such Participants or be appropriately modified.  For purposes of the Plan, a “Foreign Participant” is a Participant who is a foreign national who is located outside the United States or who is not compensated from a payroll maintained in the United States, or who are otherwise subject to (or could cause the Company to be subject to) legal or regulatory provisions of countries or jurisdictions outside the United States.

SECTION 5

 

Restrictive Covenants

 

5.1                               Confidential Information. Each Participant shall hold in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the Company all secret or confidential information, knowledge or data relating to the Company or any of its affiliated companies, and their respective businesses, which shall have been obtained by the Participant during the Participant’s employment by the Company or any of its affiliated companies and which shall not be or become public knowledge (other than by acts by the Participant or representatives of the Participant in violation of the Plan or any other plan, policy, arrangement or agreement maintained by or entered into with the Company). After termination of a Participant’s employment with the Company, the Participant shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company or as may otherwise be required by law or legal process (provided that the Participant provides the Company with prior notice of the contemplated disclosure and reasonably cooperates with the Company at its expense in seeking a protective order or other appropriate protection of such information), communicate or divulge any such information, knowledge or data to anyone other than the Company and those designated by it.

 

5.2                               Non-Solicitation.  For a period of time beginning on each Participant’s termination date and ending on (a) the second anniversary of that date, in the case of the Chief Executive Officer, (b) the 18-month anniversary, in the case of Executive Vice Presidents and (c) the 12-month anniversary, in the case of Senior Vice Presidents, each Participant will not directly or indirectly through another person or entity (i) intentionally induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or any Affiliate to leave the employ of such employer, or in any way interfere with the relationship between such employer and any employee thereof, (ii) hire any person who was an employee of any member of the Company or any Affiliate at any time during the one-year period prior to the termination date, or (iii) intentionally induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee or other business relation of the Company or any Affiliate to cease doing business with the Company or any Affiliate, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee or business relation and the Company or any Affiliate (including making any negative or disparaging statements or communications regarding the Company or any Affiliate or its products or services), except to the extent relevant to and reasonably necessary to defend any claim by the Company or any Affiliate against the Participant.

 

SECTION 6

 

Amendment and Termination

 

6.1                               Amendment and Termination.  Subject to the provisions of Section 6.2, the Company may amend or terminate the Plan at any time.

 

6.2                               Participant Rights.  No amendment to the Plan that directly or indirectly affects a Participant’s rights shall be effective until the second anniversary of the date the Administrator adopts such amendment other than with the written consent of such Participant.  For the avoidance of doubt, in the event an amendment affects multiple Participants and consent to a change is obtained for some but not all such Participants, the amendment will be immediately effective with respect to the Participants who provided their written consent but will not be effective for other affected Participants until the second anniversary of the date such amendment is adopted.

(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, a Swingline Lender shall make Swingline Loans to the Revolving Borrower from time to time during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding the Aggregate Swingline Commitment, (ii) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Foreign Currency Loans exceeding the Swingline Foreign Currency Sublimit, (iii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding the Aggregate Commitments, (iv) with respect to any Swingline Lender, the sum of (x) the Swingline Exposure of such Swingline Lender (in its capacity as a Swingline Lender and a Lender), (y) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Revolving Loans made by such Swingline Lender (in its capacity as a Lender) and (z) the LC Exposure of such Swingline Lender (in its capacity as a Lender) exceeding its Commitment, (v) the principal amount of all Swingline Loans made by such Swingline Lender outstanding at such time, exceeding such Swingline Lender’s Swingline Commitment of the applicable currency or (vi) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender exceeding its Commitment; provided that the Swingline Lenders shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, only the Swingline Foreign Currency Lenders shall be required to make Swingline Foreign Currency Loans.  Upon the Borrowing of any Loan under Section 2.01, any outstanding Swingline Loans shall be repaid in full.  Swingline Loans with respect to a particular currency shall be made ratably (on a several and not joint basis and calculated based on such Swingline Lender’s Swingline Commitment to the total Swingline Commitments of all applicable Swingline Lenders of such currency) by each applicable Swingline Lender of such currency.  Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Revolving Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.  Swingline Dollar Loans shall be ABR Borrowings; provided that the Administrative Agent may request that a Swingline Loan be maintained as a Eurocurrency Borrowing.

(b)    To request a Swingline Borrowing:
(i)    in the case of a Swingline Dollar Loan to the Revolving Borrower, the Revolving Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request (which request shall be in writing or by telephone confirmed promptly by means of a written Borrowing Request delivered to the Administrative Agent in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Revolving Borrower (it being agreed no obligation to fund any Swingline Loan shall arise until the later of (x) the required funding time set forth herein and (y) 30 minutes after receipt of such written Borrowing Request), unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent), not later than 2:30 p.m. (or such other time agreed to by the Revolving Borrower and the applicable Swingline Lender), New York City time, on the day of such proposed Swingline Loan, and
(ii)    in the case of a Swingline Foreign Currency Loan, the Revolving Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request (which request shall be in writing or by telephone confirmed promptly by means of a written Borrowing Request delivered to the Administrative Agent in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Revolving Borrower (it being agreed no obligation to fund any Swingline Foreign Currency Loan shall arise until the later of (x) the required funding time set forth herein and (y) 30 minutes after receipt of such written Borrowing Request), unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent), not later than 10:00 a.m. (or such other time agreed to by the Revolving Borrower and such Swingline Foreign Currency Lender), Local Time, on the day of such proposed Swingline Foreign Currency Loan.
Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) the requested date (which shall be a Business Day), (B) whether such Swingline Loan is to be a Swingline Dollar Loan or a Swingline Foreign Currency Loan, (C) the amount of the requested Swingline Borrowing, and (D) in the case of a Swingline Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency, the Interest Period requested to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by clause (b) of the definition of the term “Interest Period”.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the applicable Swingline Lender or the Affiliate designated by the applicable Swingline Lender for such Swingline Borrowing of any such notice received.  In the case of Swingline Foreign Currency Loans, the applicable Swingline Foreign Currency Lenders and the Revolving Borrower shall agree upon the interest rate applicable to such Swingline Foreign Currency Loan, provided that if such agreement cannot be reached prior to 10:00 a.m., Local Time, or such other time agreed to by the applicable Swingline Foreign Currency Lender and the Revolving Borrower, then such Swingline Foreign Currency Loan shall not be made.  In addition to any other requirements for obtaining a Swingline Foreign Currency Loan, the Revolving Borrower shall comply with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements.  
Any funding of a Swingline Loan by a Swingline Lender shall be made on the proposed date thereof by 3:30 p.m., Local Time, to the account of the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent will make such Swingline Loan available to the Revolving Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the account of the Revolving Borrower with the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Swingline Borrowing made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank).  The Administrative Agent shall determine the procedures to be followed by the Swingline Foreign Currency Lenders to ensure that the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Foreign Currency Loans does not exceed the amount permitted by Section 2.04(a) at the time any Swingline Foreign Currency Loan is made and to ensure that the amount of Advances made does not exceed the amounts permitted by Section 2.01(a), and each Swingline Foreign Currency Lender and the other parties hereto agrees to abide by such procedures.  If the Swingline Loans at any time exceed any of the amounts permitted by Section 2.01(a) or 

-31-

2.04(a), the Revolving Borrower shall promptly prepay the relevant Swingline Loans by the amount of such excess.
(c)    No Swingline Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Swingline Lender to make the ratable portion of a Swingline Loan to be made by such other Swingline Lender on the date of any Swingline Loan.
(d)    Each Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time (or 11:00 a.m. London time in the case of any Swingline Foreign Currency Loan), on any Business Day require the Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the outstanding Swingline Loans.  Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of such Swingline Loans in which the Lenders will participate, and such Swingline Loans, if denominated in Foreign Currency, shall be converted to Dollars and shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.  Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Adjusted Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Swingline Loans.  Each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Adjusted Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Swingline Loans.  Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its respective obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.  Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph (d), and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the applicable Swingline Lender.  Any amounts received by a Swingline Lender from the Revolving Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Revolving Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by such Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to such Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to such Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Revolving Borrower for any reason.  The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Revolving Borrower of any default in the payment thereof and the Revolving Borrower shall reimburse each Lender for any amounts that may be due under Section 2.14, 2.16. 2.19 or any other term of this Agreement.
(e)    Any Swingline Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Revolving Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such Swingline Lender and the successor Swingline Lender.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of a Swingline Lender.  At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Revolving Borrower shall pay all unpaid interest accrued for the account of the replaced Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a).  From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (x) the successor Swingline Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made thereafter and (y) references herein to the term “Swingline Lender” shall be 

-32-

deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Swingline Lender, or to such successor and all previous Swingline Lenders, as the context shall require.  After the replacement of a Swingline Lender hereunder, the replaced Swingline Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of a Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made by it prior to its replacement, but shall not be required to make additional Swingline Loans.
(f)    Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Swingline Lender, any Swingline Lender may resign as a Swingline Lender at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such Swingline Lender shall be replaced in accordance with Section 2.04(e) above.
SECTION 2.05.    Letters of Credit.
(a)    General.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Revolving Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or any Foreign Currency for its own account or the account of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period.  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 or other agreement submitted by the Revolving Borrower to, or entered into by the Revolving Borrower, the Company or a Subsidiary with, the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.  On the Closing Date, each Existing Letter of Credit shall, without any further action by any party, be deemed to have been issued as a Letter of Credit hereunder on the Closing Date and shall for all purposes hereof be treated as a Letter of Credit under this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Issuing Bank shall have any obligation hereunder to issue any Letter of Credit (a) the proceeds of which would be used in any manner that would result in a violation of one or more policies of such Issuing Bank applicable to Letters of Credit generally or (b) the issuance of which would conflict with any applicable laws.
(b)    Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions.  To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Revolving Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the account party thereof (which shall be the Revolving Borrower, the Company or a Subsidiary, and if the Company or a Subsidiary then the Revolving Borrower and the Company or such Subsidiary shall be jointly and severally liable with respect to all Obligations relating to such Letter of Credit), the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit.  The Revolving Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of the Company or the Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Revolving Borrower, and that the Revolving Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of the Company and such Subsidiaries.  In addition, if requested by the Issuing Bank, as a condition to any such Letter of Credit issuance, the Revolving Borrower (and the Company or applicable Subsidiary if such Letter of Credit is to be issued for the account of the Company or a Subsidiary) shall have entered into a continuing agreement (or other letter of credit agreement) for the issuance of Letters of Credit and/or shall submit a Letter of Credit application, in each case on the Issuing Bank’s standard form (each, a “Letter of 

-33-

Credit Agreement”), in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit.  A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Revolving Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the aggregate LC Exposure shall not exceed the aggregate LC Commitment, (ii) the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by the applicable Issuing Bank at such time plus (y) the aggregate amount of all LC Disbursements made such Issuing Bank that have not yet been reimbursed by or on behalf of the Revolving Borrower at such time shall not exceed such Issuing Bank’s LC Commitment Sublimit, (iii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments and (iv) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender shall not exceed its Commitment.  
(c)    Expiration Date.  Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (provided that any Letter of Credit may provide for additional one year renewals (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in (ii) below) thereof subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent prior to the time of such renewal) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date.
(d)    Participations.  By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Adjusted Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit.  In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Adjusted Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Revolving Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Revolving Borrower for any reason.  Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.
(e)    Reimbursement.  If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Revolving Borrower and the Company or any applicable Subsidiary (if such Letter of Credit was issued for the account of the Company or a Subsidiary) shall jointly and severally reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Revolving Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m. Local Time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Revolving Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on (i) the Business Day that the Revolving Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., Local Time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Revolving Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that the Revolving Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.04 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Revolving Borrower’s and as applicable the Company’s or Subsidiary’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan.  If the Revolving Borrower and as applicable the 

-34-

Company or a Subsidiary fail to make such payment when due, such amount, if denominated in Foreign Currency shall be converted to Dollars and shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for ABR Revolving Borrowings and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Revolving Borrower and as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Adjusted Percentage thereof.  Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Adjusted Percentage of the payment then due from the Revolving Borrower and as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders.  Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Revolving Borrower or as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear.  Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Revolving Borrower and as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary of their obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.
(f)    Obligations Absolute.  The Revolving Borrower’s and as applicable the Company’s or a Subsidiary’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Agreement or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Revolving Borrower’s or as applicable the Company’s or a Subsidiary’s obligations hereunder.  Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility 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 (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), 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 the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Revolving Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Revolving Borrower and as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Revolving Borrower and as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.  The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination.  In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole 

-35-

discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.  
(g)    Disbursement Procedures.  The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit.  The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Revolving Borrower and as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary of their obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.  
(h)    Interim Interest.  If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Revolving Borrower or as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Revolving Borrower or as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if the Revolving Borrower or as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.12(e) shall apply.  Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.
(i)    Replacement of the Issuing Bank.  The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Revolving Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank.  At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Revolving Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.11(d).  From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require.  After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.  Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Issuing Bank, any Issuing Bank may resign as an Issuing Bank at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such Issuing Bank shall be replaced in accordance with this Section 2.05(i).
(j)    Cash Collateralization.  If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Revolving Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Revolving Borrower and as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary (with respect to any Letters of Credit issued for its account only, jointly and severally with the Revolving Borrower) shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and 

-36-

unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Revolving Borrower or as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary with respect to any Letters of Credit issued for its account described in clause (h) or (i) of Section 7.01.  Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Revolving Borrower and as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary under this Agreement.  The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account.  Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Revolving Borrower’s and as applicable the Company’s or a Subsidiary’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest.  Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account.  Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Revolving Borrower and as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Revolving Borrower under this Agreement.  If the Revolving Borrower and as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Revolving Borrower or as applicable the Company or a Subsidiary within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.
(k)    Additional Issuing Banks.  From time to time, the Administrative Agent may designate other Lenders (in addition to those set forth in the definition of Issuing Bank) that agree (in their sole discretion) to act in such capacity and are satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Borrower as Issuing Banks.  Each such additional Issuing Bank shall execute such agreements requested by the Administrative Agent and shall thereafter be an Issuing Bank hereunder for all purposes, provided that any such additional Issuing Bank shall only issue such Letters of Credit as approved by the Administrative Agent (it being understood such additional agreement may amend Schedule 2.01(b) without the consent of any Lenders in order to reflect the LC Commitment of such additional Issuing Bank). 
(l)    Reporting.  Unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day of each week and the first Business Day of each Fiscal Quarter, the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding as of the last Business Day of the preceding week or the preceding Fiscal Quarter, as applicable, (ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the aggregate face amount of the Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred (and whether the amount thereof changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date of such LC Disbursement and the amount of such LC Disbursement and (iv) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.
SECTION 2.06.    Funding of Borrowings.
(a)    Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, Local Time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; 

-37-

provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04.  The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Revolving Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Revolving Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent (i) in such location determined by the Administrative Agent, in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, or (ii) in London, in the case of Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency and designated by the Revolving Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans and Swingline Dollar Loans made to finance the reimbursement of a LC Disbursement and reimbursements as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank.
(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 such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Revolving Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Revolving Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand (without duplication) such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Revolving Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, or (ii) in the case of the Revolving Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans, or in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) with respect to Borrowings denominated in a Foreign Currency, a rate determined in a customary manner in good faith by the Administrative Agent representing the cost to the Administrative Agent of funding such Borrowing.  If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.  If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.
SECTION 2.07.    Interest Elections.
(a)    Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request (it being understood all Borrowings in a Foreign Currency shall be Eurocurrency Borrowings) and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request.  Thereafter, the Revolving Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type, in the case of Borrowings denominated in Dollars, or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section.  The Revolving Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.  This Section shall not apply to Swingline Foreign Currency Borrowings or Swingline Dollar Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.
(b)    To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Revolving Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election (which election shall be in writing unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent) by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Revolving Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type and denominated in the Foreign Currency resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election.  Each such Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and by means of a written Interest Election Request delivered to the Administrative Agent in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Revolving Borrower.

-38-

(c)    Each Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:
(i)    the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);
(ii)    the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;
(iii)    whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; provided that the resulting Borrowing is required to be a Eurocurrency Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency; and
(iv)    if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by clause (a) of the definition of the term “Interest Period.”
If any such Interest Election Request does not specify the Type of the resulting Borrowing and the resulting Borrowing is to be denominated in Dollars, then the resulting Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing.  If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Revolving Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.
(d)    Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender to which such Interest Election Request relates of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.
(e)    If the Revolving Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing on or prior to the third Business Day prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing (unless such Borrowing is denominated in a Foreign Currency, in which case such Borrowing shall be continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month’s duration commencing on the last day of such Interest Period).  Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the written request (including a request through electronic means) of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Revolving Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing denominated in Dollars may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing, (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency will, at the expiration of the then current Interest Period, be automatically continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month’s duration.
SECTION 2.08.    Termination and Reduction/Increases of Commitments.
(a)    Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.
(b)    The Revolving Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an 

-39-

integral multiple of $10,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000 and (ii) the Revolving Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, any circumstance set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) of Section 2.01 would occur.
(c)    The Revolving Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof.  Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof.  Each notice delivered by the Revolving Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Revolving Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or another transaction, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Revolving Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.  Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent.  Each reduction of the Commitments under this Section 2.08 shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments.
(d)    Subject to the conditions set forth below, the Revolving Borrower may, upon at least ten (10) days (or such other period of time agreed to between the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Borrower) prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, increase the Aggregate Commitments from time to time, either by designating a lender not theretofore a Lender to become a Lender (such designation to be effective only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank, which shall not be unreasonably withheld) or by agreeing with an existing Lender that such Lender’s Commitment shall be increased (thus increasing the Aggregate Commitments); provided that:
(i)    the amount of each such increase in the Aggregate Commitments shall not be less than $10,000,000 (or such other minimum amount agreed to between the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Borrower), and shall not cause the sum of (x) the aggregate increases in the Commitments under this Section 2.08(d) plus (y) the outstanding amount of all new term loans made under Section 2.06(b) of the New Term Loan Credit Facility (or, if applicable the analogous provisions of the Existing Term Loan Credit Agreement or the equivalent term in any successor facility thereto) to exceed $500,000,000;
(ii)    the Revolving Borrower and any applicable Lender or lender not theretofore a Lender, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, a Lender Addition and Acknowledgement Agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the Revolving Borrower;
(iii)    no existing Lender shall be obligated in any way to increase any of its Commitments unless it has executed and delivered a Lender Addition and Acknowledgement Agreement;
(iv)    the interest rates paid with respect to the increased Revolving Loan Commitment shall be identical to those payable with respect to the existing Revolving Loan Commitment; 
(v)    the initial Loans made under any such new or increased Commitments shall be made pursuant to funding procedures then agreed to by the Revolving Borrower and the Administrative Agent;

-40-

(vi)    the Administrative Agent shall have received such supplemental opinions, resolutions, certificates and other documents as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request; and
(vii)    a new Lender may not be the Company, the Revolving Borrower or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of the Company or any other Ineligible Institution.
Upon the execution, delivery, acceptance and recording of the Lender Addition and Acknowledgement Agreement, from and after the effective date specified in a Lender Addition and Acknowledgement Agreement, such existing Lender shall have a Commitment as therein set forth or such other Lender shall become a Lender with a Commitment as therein set forth and all the rights and obligations of a Lender with such a Commitment hereunder.  Upon its receipt of a Lender Addition and Acknowledgement Agreement together with any note or notes, if requested, subject to such addition and assumption and the written consent to such addition and assumption, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Lender Addition and Acknowledgement Agreement has been completed and the other conditions described in this Section 2.08 have been satisfied:  (x) accept such Lender Addition and Acknowledgement Agreement; (y) record the information contained therein in the Register; and (z) give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders and the Revolving Borrower and deliver to the Lenders a schedule reflecting the new Commitments.  The Lenders (new or existing) shall accept an assignment from the existing Lenders, and the existing Lenders shall make an assignment to the new or existing Lender accepting a new or increased Commitment, of a direct or participation interest in each then outstanding Loan and Letter of Credit such that, after giving effect thereto, all Revolving Credit Exposure hereunder is held ratably by the Lenders in proportion to their respective Commitments.  Assignments pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be made in exchange for the principal amount assigned plus accrued and unpaid interest and facility and letter of credit fees.  The Revolving Borrower shall make any payments under Section 2.15 resulting from such assignments.
(e)    The provisions of Section 2.08(d) shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.17 or 9.02 to the contrary (including, for the avoidance of doubt, provisions thereof relating to amendments to Section 9.02, Section 2.10, Section 2.17, and the definition of “Required Lenders”).
SECTION 2.09.    Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.
(a)    The Revolving Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the Maturity Date and (ii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the date 30 days after such Swingline Loan is made or such other date agreed to between the Revolving Borrower and the Swingline Lender. 
(b)    Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Revolving Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.
(c)    The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class, currency and Type thereof and the Interest Period (if any) applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Revolving Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) any amount received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.
(d)    The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; 

-41-

provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Revolving Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and, provided further that in the event of any conflict between the entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section and the entries in the Register maintained pursuant to Section 9.04(b)(iv), the entries in the Register shall control.
(e)    Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note.  In such event, the Revolving Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns and in the form of Exhibit B hereto or such other form approved by the Administrative Agent.  Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form.
SECTION 2.10.    Prepayment of Loans.
(a)    The Revolving Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section.  
(b)    The Revolving Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) (which notice shall be in writing unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Revolving Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment, or (iii) in the case of prepayment of any Swingline Loan, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local time, on the date of prepayment, or such other time agreed to by the Revolving Borrower and the Swingline Lender.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.08.  Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof.  Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02.  Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing.  Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12. 
(c)    In the event and on such occasion that the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds (i) 105% of the Aggregate Commitments solely as a result of currency fluctuations or (ii) the Aggregate Commitments (other than as a result of currency fluctuations), the Revolving Borrower shall prepay Revolving Borrowings or cash collateralize LC Exposure in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to cause the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure to be less than or equal to the Aggregate Commitments.
SECTION 2.11.    Additional Interest and Fees.
(a)    The Revolving Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment interest (the “Commitment Interest”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Margin on the average daily unused portion of the Commitments during the period from and 

-42-

including the Closing Date to but excluding the date on which such Commitment terminates; provided that solely for the purposes of calculating the Commitment Interest, Swingline Loans shall not be deemed to be a utilization of the Commitments.  Accrued Commitment Interest shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof; provided that any Commitment Interest accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand.  All Commitment Interest 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).
(b)    [Reserved].
(c)    The Revolving Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each applicable Lender, upfront fees equal to a percentage disclosed in writing to such Lender by the Company and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing Date of the aggregate principal amount of such Lender’s Commitment on the Closing Date.
(d)    The Revolving Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Margin used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate or rates per annum separately agreed upon between the Revolving Borrower and the Issuing Bank (but which shall not exceed 0.125%) on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder.  Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the last Business Day of each such month, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand.  Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand.  All participation fees and fronting 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).
(e)    The Revolving Borrower agrees to pay to the Lead Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and the Syndication Agent fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon by them.
(f)    All additional interest and fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds in Dollars, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of Commitment Interest, upfront fees in clause (c) above and participation fees, to the Lenders.  Such additional interest and fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

-43-

SECTION 2.12.    Interest.
(a)    The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.
(b)    The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.
(c)    Each Swingline Foreign Currency Loan shall bear interest as determined in Section 2.04.
(d)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Revolving Borrower hereunder is not paid when due (after the expiration of any applicable grace or cure period), whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.
(e)    Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Revolving Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.
(f)    All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that (i) interest on Borrowings denominated in Sterling shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days, (ii) interest on Borrowings denominated in any other Foreign Currency for which it is required by applicable law or customary to compute interest on the basis of a year of 365 days or, if required by applicable law or customary, 366 days in a leap year, shall be computed on such basis, and (iii) interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).  The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
SECTION 2.13.    Alternate Rate of Interest.
(a)    If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in any currency:
(i)    the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means (including by means of an Interpolated Rate) do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable (including because the Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for the applicable currency and such Interest Period; or

-44-

(ii)    the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; 
then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Revolving Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Revolving Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing denominated in Dollars to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective and such Borrowing shall be converted to or continued as on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto an ABR Borrowing, (ii) any outstanding Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, to an ABR Borrowing and (iii) any Borrowing Request or Interest Election Request that requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing (or conversion or continuation thereto) denominated in a Foreign Currency, shall be ineffective and such Borrowing shall be made or maintained, as applicable, at a rate determined in a customary manner in good faith by the Administrative Agent.
(b)    If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Screen Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBO Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable (but for the avoidance of doubt, such related changes shall not include a reduction of the Applicable Margin); provided that, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.02, 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 date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment.  Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (b) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 2.13(b), only to the extent the Screen Rate for the applicable currency and such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective and (y) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing; provided that, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.
SECTION 2.14.    Increased Costs.
(a)    If any Change in Law shall:
(i)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, compulsory loan, liquidity insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the Issuing Bank; 

-45-

(ii)    impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or any Advance made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or
(iii)    subject any Recipient to any Taxes on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Other Connection Taxes on gross or net income, profits or revenue (including value-added or similar Taxes) or that are franchise Taxes or branch profits Taxes and (C) Taxes described in clauses (b)-(d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes);
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, continue, convert or maintain any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Revolving Borrower will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b)    If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital, liquidity or insurance requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital, liquidity or insurance requirements adequacy), then from time to time the Revolving Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c)    A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Revolving Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Revolving Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.  
(d)    Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Revolving Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Revolving Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.
SECTION 2.15.    Break Funding Payments.  In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto 

-46-

(including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10(b) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Revolving Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18, then, in any such event, the Revolving Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event.  In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits of the applicable currency of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market.  A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Revolving Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Revolving Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.
SECTION 2.16.    Withholding of Taxes; Gross-Up.
(a)    Each payment by any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without withholding for any Taxes, unless such withholding is required by applicable law.  If such withholding is required by applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable Withholding Agent), then the applicable Withholding Agent shall so withhold and shall timely pay the full amount of withheld Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.  If such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the amount payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that, after such withholding has been made (including such withholding applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section), the applicable Recipient receives the amount it would have received had no such withholding been made.
(b)    Payment of Other Taxes by the Revolving Borrower.  The Revolving Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(c)    Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.16, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(d)    Indemnification by the Loan Parties.  The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient for any Indemnified Taxes that are paid or payable by such Recipient in connection with any Loan Document (including amounts paid or payable under this Section 2.16(d)) 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.  The indemnity under this Section 2.16(d) shall be paid within 10 days after the applicable Recipient delivers to the applicable Loan Party a certificate stating the amount of any Indemnified Taxes so paid or payable by such Recipient and describing the basis for the indemnification claim.  Such certificate shall be conclusive of 

-47-

the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.  Such Recipient shall deliver a copy of such certificate to the Administrative Agent.
(e)    Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan 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.  The indemnity under this Section 2.16(e) shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent.  Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable 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 Loan 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 2.16(e).
(f)    Status of Lenders.  
(i)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Revolving Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Revolving Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Revolving Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Revolving Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by law or reasonably requested by the Revolving Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Revolving Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting requirements, or in order to enable the Revolving Borrower to comply with the provisions of Sections 891A, 891E, 891F and 891G of the (Irish) Taxes Consolidation Act, 1977.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.16(f)(ii)(A) through (C) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s 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.  Upon the reasonable request of the Revolving Borrower or the Administrative Agent, any Lender shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.16(f).  If any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify the Revolving Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy and update the form or certification if it is legally eligible to do so.
(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing any Lender with respect to the Revolving Borrower shall, (except in the case of (A) below, only if it is legally eligible to do so), deliver to the Revolving Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies reasonably requested by the Revolving Borrower and the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party hereto, duly completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:
(A)    in the case of a Lender that is a U.S. Person, IRS Form W‐9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax;

-48-

(B)    in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender, executed originals of IRS Form W‐8BEN, W‐8BEN‐E, W‐8ECI or W‐8IMY (together with any underlying attachments), as applicable;
(C)    in the case of a Lender that is not resident in Ireland, if required to obtain an exemption from Irish withholding Tax, authorization issued by the Irish Revenue Commissioners permitting payment without deduction of withholding Tax; 
(D)    (x) any other form (together with any applicable supplementary documentation) prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax or, as the case may be, Irish withholding Tax, together with such supplementary documentation necessary to enable the Revolving Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the amount of Tax (if any) required by law to be withheld and/or (y) in the case of Irish withholding Tax, confirmation that the applicable Lender satisfies one or more of the exemptions from Irish withholding tax prescribed in Section 246(3) of the (Irish) Taxes Consolidation Act, 1997; or
(E)    if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan 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 Revolving Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Revolving 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 Revolving Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Revolving 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, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (E), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(g)    Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.16 (including additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section 2.16), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any 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 to such indemnified party pursuant to the previous sentence (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.16(g), in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.16(g) if such payment would place such indemnified party in a less favorable position (on a net after-Tax basis) than such indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.  This Section 2.16(g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(h)    Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.16 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement 

-49-

of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations under any Loan Document.
(i)    Issuing Bank.  For purposes of Section 2.16(e) and (f), the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank.
SECTION 2.17.    Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.
(a)    Unless otherwise specified, the Revolving Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 or 2.19, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim.  Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon.  All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent to the applicable account designated to the Revolving Borrower by the Administrative Agent, except payments to be made directly to the applicable Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16, 2.19 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the persons entitled thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.  If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.  All payments hereunder of (i) fees, principal or interest in respect of any Loan shall be made in the currency in which such Loan is denominated, (ii) reimbursement obligations shall be made in the currency in which the Letter of Credit in respect of which such reimbursement obligation exists is denominated or (iii) any other amount due hereunder or under another Loan Document shall be made in Dollars.  Any payment required to be made by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if the Administrative Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by the Administrative Agent to make such payment. 
(b)    If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent from the Revolving Borrower to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due from the Revolving Borrower hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due from the Revolving Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due from the Revolving Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.
(c)    If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary 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 Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such 

-50-

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 paragraph (c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Revolving Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph (c) shall apply).  The Revolving 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 Revolving Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Revolving Borrower in the amount of such participation.
(d)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Revolving Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder that the Revolving Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Revolving Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, the amount due.  In such event, if the Revolving Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank 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 NYFRB Rate (or in the case of amounts not denominated in Dollars, the Administrative Agent’s applicable cost of funds) and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
(e)    If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b), 2.17(d) or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.
SECTION 2.18.    Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
(a)    If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Revolving Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans 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 Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  The Revolving Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(b)    If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Revolving Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder or is otherwise a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 9.02 or any other 

-51-

provision of any Loan Document requires the consent of all or all affected Lenders and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then the Revolving Borrower may, at its 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 Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Revolving Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline lender and the Issuing Bank, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Revolving Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) ; (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (iv) in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from any Lender becoming a Non-Extending Lender pursuant to Section 2.21, the assignee shall be an Additional Commitment Lender and, upon the effectiveness of any such assignment and delegation, such assignee shall be deemed to have consented to the extension of the Maturity Date requested in the relevant Extension Request (and, if such assignment and delegation shall become effective after the relevant Extension Date, the Maturity Date with respect to such Additional Commitment Lender (insofar as relating to the interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents so assigned and delegated) shall automatically extend to the date specified in the relevant Extension Request).  A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Revolving Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 
SECTION 2.19.    Additional Reserve Costs.
(a)    For so long as any Lender is required to make special deposits with the Bank of England or comply with reserve assets, liquidity, cash margin or other requirements of the Bank of England, to maintain reserve asset ratios or to pay fees, in each case in respect of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans or Swingline Foreign Currency Loans, such Lender shall be entitled to require the Revolving Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on each of such Loans, additional interest on such Loan at a rate per annum equal to the Mandatory Cost Rate calculated in accordance with the formula and in the manner set forth in Exhibit C hereto.
(b)    For so long as any Lender is required to comply with reserve assets, liquidity, cash margin or other requirements of any monetary or other authority (including any such requirement imposed by the European Central Bank or the European System of Central Banks, but excluding requirements reflected in the Statutory Reserves or the Mandatory Cost Rate) in respect of any of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans and Swingline Foreign Currency Loans, such Lender shall be entitled to require the Revolving Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on each of such Lender’s Loans subject to such requirements, additional interest on such Loan at a rate per annum specified by such Lender to be the cost to such Lender of complying with such requirements in relation to such Loan.
(c)    Any additional interest owed pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) above shall be determined by the applicable Lender, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and notified to the Revolving Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) at least five Business Days before each date on which interest is payable for the applicable Loan, and such additional interest so 

-52-

notified to the Revolving Borrower by such Lender shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender on each date on which interest is payable for such Loan.
SECTION 2.20.    Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
(a)    Commitment Interest pursuant to Section 2.11(a) shall cease to accrue on the unutilized portion of the applicable Commitment of such Defaulting Lender;
(b)    the Commitments and Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02); provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby;
(c)    if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:
(i)    all or any part of the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender (other than the portion of such Swingline Exposure referred to in clause (b) of the definition of such term) shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments and (y) no non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposures plus such non-Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Adjusted Percentage of such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure exceeds such non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment provided, that subject to Section 9.18, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation;
(ii)    if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Revolving Borrower shall within two Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Bank only the Revolving Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;
(iii)    if the Revolving Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Revolving Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(d) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;
(iv)    if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.11(a) and 

-53-

Section 2.11(d) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; and
(v)    if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.11(d) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and
(d)    so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Swingline Lender shall be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Revolving Borrower in accordance with Section 2.20(c), and participating interests in any newly made Swingline Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.20(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).
(e)    In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Borrower, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then (i) 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 such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided, however, 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 the Revolving Borrower or any other party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender, and the Revolving Borrower and such other party shall retain and reserve any such claim, and (ii) the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage.
SECTION 2.21.    Extension of Maturity Date.
(a)    Request for Extension.  The Revolving Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders) not earlier than 60 days and not later than 30 days prior to each anniversary of the Closing Date request (an “Extension Request”) that each Lender extend such Lender’s Maturity Date (the “Applicable Maturity Date”) to the date that is one year after the Applicable Maturity Date then in effect for such Lender (the “Existing Maturity Date”) (the date of effectiveness of such extension, if granted pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 2.21, the “Extension Date”); provided that (a) each Lender shall be offered an opportunity to participate in such extension on the same terms and conditions as each other Lender pursuant to procedures established by, or reasonably acceptable to, the Administrative Agent and (b) only two Extension Requests may be requested hereunder.
(b)    Lender Elections to Extend.  Each Lender, acting in its sole and individual discretion, shall, by notice to the Administrative Agent given not later than the date that is 15 days after the date on which the Administrative Agent received the Revolving Borrower’s Extension Request (or such later date as shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent) (the “Lender Notice Date”), advise the 

-54-

Administrative Agent whether or not such Lender agrees to such extension (each applicable Lender that determines to so extend its Applicable Maturity Date, an “Extending Lender”).  Each Lender that determines not to so extend its Applicable Maturity Date (a “Non-Extending Lender”), shall notify the Administrative Agent of such fact promptly after such determination (but in any event no later than the Lender Notice Date), and any Lender that does not advise the Administrative Agent of any election on or before the Lender 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, and it is understood and agreed that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to any request made by the Revolving Borrower for extension of the Applicable Maturity Date.
(c)    Notification by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Borrower of each applicable Lender’s determination under this Section no later than the date that is 15 days prior to the applicable Extension Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the next preceding Business Day).
(d)    Additional Commitment Lenders.  The Revolving Borrower shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, on or before the Applicable Maturity Date for any Non-Extending Lender to replace such Non-Extending Lender with, and add as a “Lender” under this Agreement in place thereof, one or more banks, financial institutions or other entities (each an “Additional Commitment Lender”) approved by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the procedures provided in Section 2.18(b), each of which applicable Additional Commitment Lenders shall have entered into an Assignment and Assumption (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04, with the Company or replacement Lender obligated to pay any applicable processing or recordation fee) with such Non-Extending Lender, pursuant to which such Additional Commitment Lenders shall, effective on or before the Applicable Maturity Date for such Non-Extending Lender, assume a Commitment (and, if any such Additional Commitment Lender is already a Lender, its Commitment shall be in addition to such Lender’s Commitment on such date).  Prior to any Non-Extending Lender being replaced by one or more Additional Commitment Lenders pursuant hereto, such Non-Extending Lender may elect, in its sole discretion, by giving irrevocable notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Company (which notice shall set forth such Lender’s new Applicable Maturity Date), to become an Extending Lender.  The Administrative Agent may effect such amendments to this Agreement as are reasonably necessary to provide for any such extensions with the consent of the Company but without the consent of any other Lenders.
(e)    Conditions to Effectiveness of Extension.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (and only if) the total of the Commitments of the Lenders that have agreed in connection with any Extension Request to extend the Applicable Maturity Date plus (if applicable) the Commitments of the Additional Commitment Lender(s) that shall have replaced any Non-Extending Lender as contemplated by paragraph (d) above shall, in the aggregate, be at least 50% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments in effect immediately prior to the Extension Date, then, effective as of the Extension Date, the Applicable Maturity Date, but only with respect to each Lender that has agreed to so extend its Commitment and (if applicable) each Additional Commitment Lender that has replaced a Non-Extending Lender (and to Commitments and Loans of each such Lender and Additional Commitment Lender), shall be extended to the date that is one year after the then Applicable Maturity Date; provided that the extension of the Applicable Maturity Date, and the occurrence of the Extension Date, shall not be effective with respect to any Extending Lender unless as of the Extension Date:
(i)    no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the applicable Extension Date and immediately after giving effect thereto;

-55-

(ii)    the representations and warranties of the Revolving Borrower set forth in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects (or in all respects if such representation is qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect) on and as of the applicable Extension Date 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); and
(iii) the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate from the Revolving Borrower signed by a Financial Officer of the Company (A) certifying the accuracy of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) and (B) certifying and attaching the resolutions, if any are otherwise required, adopted by the Company and the Revolving Borrower approving or consenting to such extension.
(f)    Maturity Date for Non-Extending Lenders.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on each Existing Maturity Date applicable to such Lender, (i) to the extent of the Commitments and Loans not assigned to the Additional Commitment Lenders, the Commitment of each Non-Extending Lender shall automatically terminate and (ii) the Company shall repay such Non-Extending Lenders in accordance with Section 2.09 (and shall pay to such Non-Extending Lenders all of the other Obligations owing to it under this Agreement) and after giving effect thereto shall prepay any Loans outstanding on such date (and pay any additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.15) to the extent necessary to keep outstanding Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages  and Applicable Adjusted Percentages of the respective Lenders effective as of such date, and the Administrative Agent shall administer any necessary reallocation of the applicable Revolving Credit Exposures (without regard to any minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and/or pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement).
(g)    Letters of Credit; Swingline Loans.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the “Availability Period” and the “Maturity Date” (without taking into consideration any extension pursuant to this Section 2.21), as such terms are used in reference to any Issuing Lender or any Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender or any Swingline Lender or any Swingline Loan made by such Swingline Lender, may not be extended without the prior written consent of such Issuing Lender and such Swingline Lender, as applicable (it being understood and agreed that, in the event any Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender shall not have consented to any such extension, (i) such Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender, as applicable, shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender or a Swingline Lender, as applicable, hereunder through the existing Maturity Date (or the Availability Period determined on the basis thereof, as applicable), and thereafter shall have no obligation to make any Swingline Loans or to issue, amend, extend or renew any Letter of Credit (but shall, in each case, continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.04, 2.05, 2.12, 2.14, 9.03 and 9.09, as applicable, as to Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans issued or made prior to such time), and (ii) the Revolving Borrower (and the Company or any Subsidiary that is a beneficiary under any Letter of Credit) shall cause the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender and the Swingline Exposure attributable to Swingline Loans made by such Swingline Lender to be zero no later than the day on which such LC Exposure or Swingline Exposure, as applicable, would have been required to have been reduced to zero in accordance with the terms hereof without giving effect to any effectiveness of the extension of any Applicable Maturity Date pursuant to this Section (and, in any event, no later than such existing Maturity Date)).
(h)    Conflicting Provisions.  This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.17 or Section 9.02 to the contrary.
ARTICLE III 
 
Representations and Warranties 

-56-

In order to induce the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to enter into this Agreement, the Revolving Borrower and the Company represent and warrant to each Lender and the Administrative Agent, that the following statements are true, correct and complete:
SECTION 3.01.    Organization; Powers.  Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (or, if applicable in a foreign jurisdiction, enjoys the equivalent status under the laws of any jurisdiction of organization outside the United States) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required.

No Default has occurred and is continuing.
The Company has implemented and maintains in effect policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance by the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable anti-money laundering laws and Sanctions.  Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries, or, to the Company’s best knowledge, any of its directors, officers, or employees, is in violation in any material respect of any applicable law, relating to anti-money laundering, anti-corruption (including the FCPA and the United Kingdom Bribery Act of 2010) (“Anti-Corruption Laws”) or counter-terrorism (including United States Executive Order No. 13224 on Terrorist Financing, effective September 24, 2001, the USA PATRIOT Act; the United Kingdom Terrorism Act of 2000, the United Kingdom Anti-Terrorism, Crime and Security Act of 2001, the United Kingdom Terrorism (United Nations Measures) Order of 2006, the United Kingdom Terrorism (United Nations Measures) Order of 2009 and the United Kingdom Terrorist Asset-Freezing Act of 2010).

The excess of the present value of all benefit liabilities under each Plan of the Company, the Subsidiaries and the ERISA Affiliates (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plan), as of the last annual valuation date applicable thereto for which a valuation is available, over the value of the assets of such Plan could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and the excess of the present value of all benefit liabilities of all underfunded Plans (based on those assumptions used to fund each such Plan) as of the last annual valuation dates applicable thereto for which valuations are available, over the value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Neither the financial statements, certificates nor other reports or information furnished by or on behalf of the Revolving Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or delivered hereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished) contains any material 

-59-

misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any material respect; provided that, with respect to projected financial information, the Company and the Revolving Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time.

No part of the proceeds of any Advance will be used in any manner that is in violation of any applicable law or regulation (including Regulations U or X of the Board).  After applying the proceeds of each Advance, Margin Stock will not constitute more than 25% of the value of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis that are subject to any provisions of this Agreement that may cause the Advance to be deemed secured, directly or indirectly, by Margin Stock.

As of the Closing Date, the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis (after giving effect to the Transactions), (a) have property with fair value greater than the total amount of their debts and liabilities, contingent (it being understood that the amount of contingent liabilities at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in light of all the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability), subordinated or otherwise, (b) have assets with present fair saleable value that are greater than the amount that will be required to pay the total amount of their debts and other liabilities, contingent, subordinated or otherwise, (c) will be able to pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as they become absolute and matured and (d) will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which they are engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be conducted following the date hereof.

(c)    As to any matters not expressly provided for herein and in the other Loan Documents (including enforcement or collection), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, pursuant to the terms in the Loan Documents), and, unless and until revoked in writing, such instructions shall be binding upon each Lender and each Issuing Bank; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the Administrative Agent in good faith believes exposes it to liability unless the Administrative Agent receives an indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders and the Issuing Banks with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law, including any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or that may affect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent may seek clarification or direction from the Required Lenders prior to the exercise of any such instructed action and may refrain from acting until such clarification or direction has been provided.  Except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company, the Revolving Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.  Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for, or be responsible for any loss, cost or expense suffered by the Company, the Revolving Borrower, any Subsidiary, any Lender or any Issuing Bank as a result of, any determination of the Revolving Credit Exposure, any of the component amounts thereof or any portion thereof attributable to each Lender or Issuing Bank, or any Exchange Rate or Dollar Equivalent.
(d)    Without limiting the other provisions of this Article VIII, the Administrative Agent (i) may treat the payee of any promissory note as its holder until such promissory note has been assigned in accordance with Section 9.04, (ii) may rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 9.04(b), (iii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel to the Revolving Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts, (iv) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or Issuing Bank and shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuing Bank for any statements, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of any Loan Party in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (v) in determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank sufficiently in advance of the making of such Loan or the 

-77-

issuance of such Letter of Credit and (vi) shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon, any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which writing may be a fax, any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper party or parties (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof).
SECTION 8.02.    Nature of Duties.  
(a)    The Lenders hereby acknowledge that no Agent shall be under any duty to take any discretionary action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement unless it shall be requested in writing to do so by the Required Lenders.  The Lenders further acknowledge and agree that so long as an Agent shall make any determination to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document in good faith, such Agent shall have no liability in respect of such determination to any person.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, (i) no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into the Loan Documents or otherwise exist against any Agent and (ii) none of the Syndication Agents, Documentation Agents, lead bookrunners or Lead Arrangers listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender, Swingline Lender or an Issuing Bank hereunder.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:
(i)    the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or duty or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender or Issuing Bank other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Loan Document with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary duty or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties); additionally, each Lender agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; and
(ii)    nothing in this Agreement or any Loan Document shall require the Administrative Agent to account to any Lender for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account.
(b)    (i)  The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan 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 of their respective duties and exercise their respective rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. 
(ii)    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 pursuant to this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a 

-78-

final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.
(c)    No Agent or Lead Arranger shall have obligations or duties whatsoever in such capacity under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and shall incur no liability hereunder or thereunder in such capacity, but all such persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder.
(d)    In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any 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 Revolving 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, Letters of Credit and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.15, 2.17 and 9.03) 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; 
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender, each Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under Section 9.03). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or Issuing Bank or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or Issuing Bank in any such proceeding.
(e)    The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and, except solely to the extent of the Revolving Borrower’s rights to consent pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in this Article, none of the Revolving Borrower or any Subsidiary shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary under any such provisions. 
SECTION 8.03.    Resignation by the Agents.  Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, any Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Revolving Borrower as set forth in this Section 8.03.  Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor with the consent of the Revolving Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and approved by the Revolving Borrower and shall have accepted such appointment within 45 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of Lenders the with the consent of the Revolving Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and provided such consent shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), appoint a successor Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York and an office in London, England (or a bank having an Affiliate with such an office) having a combined capital and surplus (including its parent company) having a Dollar Equivalent that is not less than $500,000,000 or an Affiliate of any such bank.  Upon the acceptance of any 

-79-

appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor bank, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.  After the Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent.
SECTION 8.04.    Each Agent in its Individual Capacity.  With respect to the Loans made by it hereunder, each Agent in its individual capacity and not as Agent shall have the same rights and powers as any other Lender or Issuing Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the Agents and their Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Revolving Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates thereof as if it were not an Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks.  The terms “Issuing Banks,” “Lenders,” “Required Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender, Issuing Bank or as one of the Required Lenders, as applicable.
SECTION 8.05.    Indemnification.  Each Lender agrees (a) to reimburse the Agents and their Related Parties, on demand, in the amount of its pro rata share (based on its Commitments hereunder (or if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of its applicable outstanding Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, as applicable)) of any reasonable expenses incurred for the benefit of the Lenders by the Agents, including counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders, which shall not have been reimbursed by the Revolving Borrower and (b) to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and any of their Related Parties, on demand, in the amount of such pro rata share, from and against any and all liabilities, Taxes, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against it in its capacity as Agent or any of them in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, to the extent the same shall not have been reimbursed by the Revolving Borrower, provided that no Lender shall be liable to an Agent or any of their Related Parties for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent or such Related Party, as the case may be.
SECTION 8.06.    Lack of Reliance on Agents.  Each Lender further represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any Lender 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 Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning the Company, the Revolving Borrower and their Affiliates) 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 or any other Loan Document, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.  Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement on the Closing Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Closing Date.

SECTION 8.07.    Designation of Affiliates.  The Administrative Agent, any Swingline Lender and any Issuing Bank shall be permitted from time to time to designate one of its Affiliates (which includes any branches of the Administrative Agent, any Swingline Lender, any Issuing Bank or any of their Affiliates) to perform the duties to be performed by the Administrative Agent, any Swingline Lender and any Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to Loans, Borrowings or Letters of Credit denominated in Foreign Currencies or with respect to any other matters under the Loan Documents.  The provisions of this Article VIII shall apply to any such Affiliate mutatis mutandis.

Each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks, the Company and the Revolving Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Communications through any Electronic System used by the Administrative Agent and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.
(iii)    Any Electronic System used by the Administrative Agent and the Communications are provided “as is” and “as available.”  The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Communications or the adequacy of such Electronic Systems and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Electronic Systems and the Communications.  No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or any Electronic System.  In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Revolving Borrower or the other Loan Parties, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Revolving Borrower’s, any Loan Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications through the internet or an Electronic System.

(v)    Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Electronic System used by the Administrative Agent shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.02.    Waivers; Amendments.
(a)    No failure or delay by any Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power.  The rights and remedies of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have.  No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Revolving Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 
(b)    Subject to Sections 2.13(b), 2.21 and 9.02(d), neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Revolving Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Revolving Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender or modify the currency of any Commitment or currency in which a Lender is required to make a Loan without the written consent of such Lender directly affected thereby, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.17(b) or (c), 2.20 or 7.02 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (it being understood and agreed that (x) any increase in the total 

-85-

Commitments and related modifications approved by each Lender increasing any of its Commitments and by the Required Lenders shall not be deemed to alter the manner in which payments are shared or alter any other pro rata sharing of payments and (y) any “amend-and-extend” transaction that extends the Maturity Date only for those Lenders that agree to such an extension (which extension may include increased pricing and fees for such extending Lenders, and which extension shall not apply to those Lenders that do not approve such extension) shall not be deemed to alter the manner in which payments are shared or alter any other pro rata sharing of payments), (v) release all or substantially all Guarantors from their obligations under any Guaranty, except to the extent permitted hereunder (whether pursuant to any sale or other transfer of the relevant Guarantor permitted hereunder or as otherwise permitted hereunder) or with the consent of all the Lenders or (vi) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such other Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be.

(B)    the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and
(C)    the Issuing Banks and Swingline Lenders.
As used herein, “Ineligible Institution” means a (a) natural person, (b) holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person or relative(s) thereof; provided that, such holding company, investment vehicle or trust shall not constitute an Ineligible Institution if it (x) has not been established for the primary purpose of acquiring any Loans or Commitments, (y) is managed by a professional advisor, who is not such natural person or a relative thereof, having significant experience in the business of making or purchasing commercial loans, and (z) has assets greater than $25,000,000 and a significant part of its activities consist of making or purchasing commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business, (c) the Company or any Affiliate thereof and (d) any Defaulting Lender.
(ii)    Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:
(A)    except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment of Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans 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) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Revolving Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Revolving Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Revolving Borrower shall be deemed to have consented unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days after having received notice thereof;
(B)    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; provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;
(C)    the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (x) an Assignment and Assumption or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Electronic System used by the Administrative Agent and as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and
(D)    the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Revolving Borrower, the Loan Parties and their related parties or their respective securities) will be 

-89-

made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws.  
For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.
(iii)    Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto 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 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03).  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.
(iv)    The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Revolving Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices 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 amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Revolving Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks 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, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Revolving Borrower, the Issuing Banks and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(v)    Upon its receipt of (x) a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Electronic System used by the Administrative agent and as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b), 2.17(d) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon.  No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c)    Any Lender may, without the consent of or notice to the Revolving Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lenders, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”), other than an Ineligible Institution, in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged; (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (C) the Revolving Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant.  The Revolving Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.16(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.16(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender and the information and documentation required under 2.16(g) will be delivered to the Revolving Borrower and the Administrative Agent)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.17 and 2.18 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.14 or 2.16, 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 Revolving Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Revolving Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.18(b) with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) 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 Revolving 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 this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (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 Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(d)    Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.
SECTION 9.06.    Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.
(a)    This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees and the terms of the facilities set forth herein constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.  Except as provided in Section 4.01, 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 which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.  
(b)    Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries 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, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept electronic signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent.
SECTION 9.07.    Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.08.    Right of Setoff.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, 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 law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held, and other obligations at any time owing, by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of the Loan Parties now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, Issuing Bank or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Loan Parties 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 7.02 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, the Issuing Banks, and the Lenders, 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, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section 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 Issuing Bank agrees to notify the Revolving 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.

(b)    The obligations of the Revolving Borrower in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Revolving Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss.  The obligations of the Revolving Borrower contained in this Section 9.15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

On the date hereof, after giving effect to the Transactions and the related transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, the Company and its Subsidiaries, when taken as a whole on a consolidated basis, (a) have property with fair value greater than the total amount of their debts and liabilities, contingent (it being understood that the amount of contingent liabilities at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in light of all the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability), subordinated or otherwise, (b) have assets with present fair saleable value that are greater than the amount that will be required to pay the total amount of their debts and other liabilities, contingent, subordinated or otherwise, (c) will be able to pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as they become absolute and matured and (d) will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which they are engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be conducted following the date hereof.

I am familiar with the finances, assets, business and properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries. In reaching the conclusions set forth in this certificate, I reviewed such information and have made such other investigations and inquiries that I deemed appropriate, including, but not limited to, consultation with other officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries responsible for financial and accounting functions concerning contingent liabilities, as I have deemed necessary and prudent to enable me to express an informed opinion as to the matters referred to herein.
