Statement of Purpose

WHEREAS the Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent are parties to the Credit Agreement, pursuant to which the Lenders have extended certain credit facilities to the Borrower, including, without limitation, the Revolving Credit Facility, the Initial Term B-1 Loans and the Initial Term B-2 Loans referred to below. 

WHEREAS on the date hereof (but prior to giving effect to this Agreement and the Effective Date Repayment (as defined below)), there are (i) outstanding Revolving Credit Commitments under the Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount of $200,000,000, (ii) outstanding Initial Term B-1 Loans under the Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount of $218,000,000 and (iii) outstanding Initial Term B-2 Loans under the Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount of $787,000,000.

WHEREAS, in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.19(a) of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower intends to incur a new Class of term loans (the “Tranche B-3 Term Loans”) and to concurrently (i) exchange such Tranche B-3 Term Loans in replacement of the Initial Term B-2 Loans that remain outstanding after giving effect to the Effective Date Repayment, in each case, pursuant to a cashless settlement as described herein and (ii) to the extent that any Initial Term B-2 Loans are not so exchanged, to (x) use the proceeds of the Tranche B-3 Term Loans to refinance the Initial Term B-2 Loans outstanding as of the Effective Date (as defined below) after giving effect to the Effective Date Repayment and such cashless settlement and/or (y) with the consent of the Administrative Agent, to repay Initial Term B-2 Loans of Lenders not providing Tranche B-3 Term Commitments (as defined below).
WHEREAS the Borrower has requested that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree to amend the Credit Agreement as more specifically set forth herein, including, without limitation, to enable the Borrower to (i) exchange Tranche B-3 Term Loans in replacement of Initial Term B-2 Loans and (ii) refinance or repay the Initial Term B-2 Loans that are not so exchanged, in each case, on the Effective Date.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1
122482251_6

1.    Capitalized Terms.  All capitalized undefined terms used in this Agreement (including, without limitation, in the introductory paragraph and the Statement of Purpose hereto) shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Credit Agreement.
2.    Tranche B-3 Term Loans.
(a)The Administrative Agent has made entries in the Register which set forth the allocated commitments (the “Tranche B-3 Term Commitments”) received by it with respect to the Tranche B-3 Term Loans from various financial institutions as of the Effective Date. The Administrative Agent has notified each Tranche B-3 Term Lender (as defined below) of its allocated Tranche B-3 Term Commitment. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4 hereof and to the provisions of Sections 2(c) and 12 hereof, each Person identified in the Register as having a Tranche B-3 Term Commitment as of the Effective Date (each, a “Tranche B-3 Term Lender”) agrees, severally and not jointly, to make, on the Effective Date, a Tranche B-3 Term Loan to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount equal to its Tranche B-3 Term Commitment.  Each Tranche B-3 Term Loan shall unless otherwise elected by the applicable Existing Tranche B-2 Lender (as defined below), be made pursuant to a cashless settlement of such Existing Tranche B-2 Lender’s Initial Term B-2 Loans as described herein and, if otherwise elected (or to the extent that the Tranche B-3 Term Commitment of such Existing Tranche B-2 Lender exceeds the Initial Term B-2 Loans of such Existing Tranche B-2 Lender), pursuant to a payment in cash to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, to repay the outstanding Initial Term B-2 Loans that are not subject to such cashless settlement. The Tranche B-3 Term Commitment of each Tranche B-3 Term Lender shall automatically terminate upon the making of the Tranche B-3 Term Loan on the Effective Date. The proceeds of the Tranche B-3 Term Loans shall be used by the Borrower on the Effective Date solely to repay (or replace via cashless settlement) the principal amount of the Initial Term B-2 Loans outstanding as of the Effective Date. The transactions contemplated by this Section 2(a) are collectively referred to as the “Amendment Refinancing Transactions”.

(b)Immediately upon the consummation of the Amendment Refinancing Transactions, each reference to the term “Initial Term B Loan” in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to include the Tranche B-3 Term Loan.  It is understood and agreed that the Tranche B-3 Term Loan being made pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute “Refinancing Term Loans” as defined in, and pursuant to, Section 2.19(a)(i) of the Credit Agreement. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement (including the annexes hereto), the Tranche B-3 Term Loans shall be on terms identical to the Initial Term B-2 Loan (including as to maturity, amortization, Guarantors, Collateral (and ranking) and payment priority).

(c)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in connection with any cashless settlement (i) each Tranche B-3 Term Lender holding Initial Term B-2 Loans immediately prior to the Effective Date (each such Lender, an “Existing Tranche B-2 Lender”) shall, in lieu of its requirement to fund a Tranche B-3 Term Loan in accordance with Section 2(a) hereof, be deemed to have made to the Borrower a Tranche B-3 Term Loan on the Effective Date in an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Term B-2 Loans held by such Lender immediately prior to the Effective Date (such Lender’s “Existing Tranche B-2 Loan Amount”) and (B) such Lender’s Tranche B-3 Term Commitment; provided that if such Lender’s Tranche B-3 Term Commitment exceeds such Lender’s Existing Tranche B-2 Loan Amount, then such Lender shall be required to fund a Tranche B-3 Term Loan on the Effective Date in accordance with Section 2(a) hereof in an aggregate principal amount equal to such excess, and (ii) the Borrower shall, in lieu of its obligation to prepay Initial Term B-2 Loans of any Existing Tranche B-2 Lender in accordance 

2
122482251_6

with Section 2(a) hereof, be deemed to have prepaid, on the Effective Date, an amount of the Initial Term B-2 Loans of each such Lender in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lesser of (A) such Lender’s Initial Term B-2 Loans and (B) such Lender’s Tranche B-3 Term Commitment; provided that (1) if such Lender’s Initial Term B-2 Loans exceed such Lender’s Tranche B-3 Term Commitment, then the Borrower shall be required to prepay in full, on the Effective Date in accordance with Section 2(a) hereof, the outstanding principal amount of the Initial Term B-2 Loans of such Lender not deemed to be prepaid pursuant to this clause (ii) and (2) notwithstanding the operation of this clause (ii), the Borrower shall be required to pay to such Lender, on the Effective Date, all accrued but unpaid interest and fees on the outstanding principal amount of the Initial Term B-2 Loans of such Lender immediately prior to the Effective Date. 

(d)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each (i) Existing Tranche B-2 Lender that does not have a Tranche B-3 Term Commitment shall be repaid in full in cash with respect to its Initial Term B-2 Loans (which such repayment may, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, be made from sources other than the Tranche B-3 Term Loans) and, by execution of an Authorization, each Tranche B-3 Term Lender hereby consents to the repayments described in this Section 2.

(e)Each Existing Tranche B-2 Lender party hereto hereby waives any requirement to pay any amounts due and owing to it pursuant to Section 3.05 of the Credit Agreement as a result of the Amendment Refinancing Transactions.

(f)Promptly following the Effective Date, (i) all Term B-1 Notes evidencing the Initial Term B-1 Loans shall be cancelled and returned to the Borrower, (ii) all Term B-2 Notes evidencing the Initial Term B-2 Loans shall be cancelled and returned to the Borrower and (iii) any Tranche B-3 Term Lender may request that its Tranche B-3 Term Loans be evidenced by a Note, in each case, pursuant to Section 2.11(a) of the Credit Agreement.

3.    Amendments to the Credit Agreement.  The body of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to delete the stricken text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: stricken text) and to add the double-underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: double-underlined text) as set forth in the amended Credit Agreement attached hereto as Annex A (the “Amended Credit Agreement”).

(v)in connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes (as defined below) all of the requirements set forth in Section 7.02(j) of the Credit Agreement are satisfied.

6
122482251_6

10.    Entire Agreement.  This Agreement is the entire agreement, and supersedes any prior agreements and contemporaneous oral agreements, of the parties concerning its subject matter.  This Amendment shall be a “Loan Document” for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

11.    Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties and their heirs, beneficiaries, successors and permitted assigns. 
12.    Cashless Settlement.      Each of the Lenders executing and delivering an Authorization that elects a cashless settlement (each, a “Cashless Authorization”) is a Lender of record holding as of the date of its Cashless Authorization the principal amount set forth in the Register of Initial Term B-2 Loans outstanding (which excludes accrued interest and other non-principal amounts owing, if any) under the Credit Agreement (with respect to such Existing Tranche B-2 Lender, such principal amount as to any Initial Term B-2 Loan, the “Existing Term B-2 Principal” and such Loans, the “Existing Term B-2 Loans”) and has requested a cashless settlement in its Cashless Authorization.

Pursuant to this Agreement, the Tranche B-3 Term Lenders will make new Tranche B-3 Term Loan under the Amended Credit Agreement to the Borrower for the purpose of replacing the Existing Term B-2 Loans.  The Borrower hereby offers to each Existing Tranche B-2 Lender to exchange the Allocated Tranche B-3 Amount (as defined below) of the Existing Term B-2 Loans held by such Existing Tranche B-2 Lender on the Effective Date for Tranche B-3 Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Allocated Tranche B-3 Amount so exchanged, which shall be evidenced and governed by the Amended Credit Agreement and the related Loan Documents as defined therein (such Allocated Tranche B-3 Amount so exchanged, the “Allocated Tranche B-3 Loans”), and each Existing Tranche B-2 Lender providing a Cashless Authorization hereby agrees to accept such offer of exchange.

For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Allocated Tranche B-3 Amount” shall mean, with respect to any Lender, an aggregate principal amount of Tranche B-3 Term Loans, not to exceed the amount of the Existing Term B-2 Principal of such Lender outstanding on the Effective Date immediately prior to giving effect to this Agreement, determined by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower and notified to the Borrower and such Lender.

Upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Borrower paying to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, all interest and other non-principal amounts then due and owing by the Borrower to such Lender in respect of such Lender’s Existing Term B-2 Loans on the Effective Date) and the funding of the Tranche B-3 Term Loans on the Effective Date, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Credit Agreement, the Borrower’s obligations in respect of Existing Term B-2 Loans of each Existing Tranche B-2 Lender in the amount equal to such Existing Tranche B-2 Lender’s Allocated Tranche B-3 Amount shall be deemed to have been satisfied; provided that if the Allocated Tranche B-3 Amount with respect to any Existing Tranche B-2 Lender is less than the Existing Term B-2 Loans of such Lender, then the difference shall be repaid to the extent set forth in and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Upon the Administrative Agent marking the Register as contemplated below, each Existing Tranche B-2 Lender shall become a “Lender” pursuant to, and for all purposes under, the Amended Credit Agreement with respect to the Allocated Tranche B-3 Loans.  The Administrative Agent’s determination and entry and completion of the Register shall be conclusive, in each case, absent clearly demonstrable error.  For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged and agreed between the Borrower and each Existing Tranche B-2 Lender that (i) the Allocated Tranche B-3 Loans shall be initially made by the Tranche B-3 Term Lenders on the Effective Date, (ii) the Tranche B-3 Term Lenders shall not be required to pay any amount with respect to the Allocated Tranche B-3 Loans made by any of them, and the Administrative Agent shall not be required to pay any amount with 

7
122482251_6

respect to any of the Allocated Tranche B-3 Loans, but such Allocated Tranche B-3 Loans shall be transferred to such Existing Tranche B-2 Lender by marking the Register as contemplated below, and (iii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Credit Agreement, each Existing Tranche B-2 Lender providing a Cashless Authorization has agreed to accept, as satisfaction in full of its right to receive payment of the Existing Term B-2 Principal under the Credit Agreement in the amount equal to such Existing Tranche B-2 Lender’s Allocated Tranche B-3 Amount, the right to receive for no additional consideration Allocated Tranche B-3 Loans in accordance herewith.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, each Existing Tranche B-2 Lender agrees to waive its right to compensation for any amounts owing under Section 3.05 of the Credit Agreement.

By executing and delivering a Cashless Authorization, each applicable Lender (a) represents and warrants to the Lead Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders that (i)(A) it has full power and authority, and has taken all action necessary, to execute and deliver its Cashless Authorization and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and to become a Lender under the Amended Credit Agreement in respect of the Allocated Tranche B-3 Loans and (B) neither its execution and delivery of the Cashless Authorization nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby conflict with such Lender’s organizational documents or material contracts or with any applicable law, (ii) from and after the Effective Date, it shall be bound by the provisions of the Amended Credit Agreement as a Lender thereunder and, to the extent of the Allocated Tranche B-3 Loans and shall have the obligations of a Lender thereunder and (iii) it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement, as applicable, and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into its Cashless Authorization and this Agreement and to accept the Allocated Tranche B-3 Loans on the basis of which it has made such analysis and decision independently and without reliance on the Lead Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, or any other Lender; and (b) agrees that (i) it will, independently and without reliance on the Lead Arrangers, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents, (ii) it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender thereunder, and (iii) it hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of the Amended Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, including, without limitation, pursuant to Article IX of the Credit Agreement. 
    
In order to evidence the exchange contemplated above, the Administrative Agent has notified the Borrower that, upon the occurrence of the Effective Date (and the payment of all interest and other non-principal amounts then due and owing by the Borrower to such Existing Tranche B-2 Lender in respect of such Lender’s Existing Term B-2 Loans on the Effective Date), it will mark the Register to reflect (a) the Existing Term B-2 Loans of each Existing Tranche B-2 Lender in the amount equal to such Existing Tranche B-2 Lender’s Allocated Tranche B-3 Amount as no longer outstanding and (b) that each Existing Tranche B-2 Lender is a Lender under the Amended Credit Agreement upon the occurrence of the Effective Date in respect of its Allocated Tranche B-3 Loans.  None of the Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger, any other agent, or any of their respective affiliates (each of the foregoing, an “Agent-Related Person”), shall be liable to any Existing Tranche B-2 Lender, any other Lender, the Borrower or any of their respective affiliates, equity holders or debt holders for any losses, costs, damages or liabilities incurred, directly or indirectly, as a result of any Agent-Related Person, or their counsel or other representatives, taking any action in accordance with the Cashless Authorization or this Agreement or executing a Cashless Authorization or this Agreement.

13.    Agreement Regarding Tranche B-3 Term Lenders.  Each of the parties hereto (including, by its execution of an Authorization each Tranche B-3 Term Lender) agrees that effective as of the Effective Date any Person executing such Authorization (a) shall be a “Lender” for all purposes of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (b) shall perform all of the obligations that are required to be performed by it as such under the Loan Documents and (c) shall be entitled to the benefits, rights and remedies as such set forth in the Loan Documents. 
14.    Agreement Regarding Assignments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 10.06 thereof) or any other Loan Document, the Borrower hereby agrees that its consent shall not be required with respect to any assignment of any Tranche B-3 Term Loans during the primary syndication of the Tranche B-3 Term Loans (which period shall begin on the Effective Date and end on the sixtieth (60th) day following the Effective Date) to financial institutions that have been identified in the allocations for the Tranche B-3 Term Loans that were previously provided by any Wells Fargo Securities, LLC to the Borrower. 
15.    Agreement Regarding Revolving Credit Facility.   Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Credit Facility shall be increased to $250,000,000.   The Revolving Credit Commitment of each Revolving Credit Lender on the Effective Date is set forth opposite the name of such Lender on Annex C hereto.   Each Lender party hereto agrees that the Administrative Agent may reallocate any outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and the Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages of Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations on the Effective Date amongst the Revolving Credit Lenders (including any New Lender) in accordance with their respective revised Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages and the Revolving Credit Lenders (in any New Lender) agree to make all payments and adjustments necessary to effect such reallocation.
16.    New Lender Joinder.  By its execution of this Agreement or an Authorization, each New Lender hereby acknowledges, agrees and confirms that, on and after the Effective Date:
(a)it will be deemed to be a party to the Amended Credit Agreement as a “Lender” and a “Revolving Credit Lender” or a “Term B Lender”, as applicable, for all purposes of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall have all of the obligations of, and shall be entitled to the benefits of, a Lender and a Revolving Credit Lender or Term B Lender, as applicable, under the Amended Credit Agreement as if it had executed the Credit Agreement;
(b)it has received a copy of the Amended Credit Agreement, copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 6.01 thereof and such other documents and information as it deems appropriate, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, any other Lender or any of their respective Affiliates, to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and become a Lender and a Revolving Credit Lender or Term B Lender, as applicable, under the Amended Credit Agreement; and
(c)it will provide any additional documentation to evidence it status as a Lender and a Revolving Credit Lender or Term B Lender, as applicable, as of the Effective Date or as required to be delivered by it pursuant to the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio or basket (including due to fluctuations of the target of any Limited Condition Transaction) after the LCT Test Date, but at or prior to the consummation of the Limited Condition Transaction, such basket or ratio will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations; and
(d)    with respect to any incurrence of Indebtedness, the proceeds of which are being used to finance a substantially concurrent Acquisition (and the related transaction costs) that is a Limited Condition Transaction subject to customary “funds certain provisions”, any requirement under this Agreement or any other Loan Document that the representations and warranties be true and correct as a condition precedent to such Acquisition or the incurrence and the availability of such Indebtedness may, if agreed to by the applicable lenders providing such Indebtedness, be limited to those representations and warranties, the accuracy of which is customarily included as a condition precedent to the incurrence or availability of third party acquisition financings that are subject to customary “funds certain provisions” (including, without limitation, certain specified representations and warranties under this Agreement and the representations and warranties under the relevant agreement governing such Acquisition that are material to the lenders providing such Indebtedness to the extent that the Borrower or its applicable Subsidiary has the right to terminate its obligations under such agreement or otherwise decline to close such Acquisition as a result of the failure of such representations and warranties to be true and correct), so long as all representations and warranties in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct at the time of execution of the relevant agreement governing such Acquisition,
The foregoing provisions shall apply with similar effect during the pendency of multiple Limited Condition Transactions such that each of the possible scenarios is separately tested.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall there be more than two Limited Condition Transactions at any time outstanding.
1.08    Rates.  The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the rates in the definition of “Eurodollar Rate”. “Eurodollar Rate” or with respect to any rate that is an alternative or replacement for or successor to any such rate (including, without limitation, any Benchmark Replacement) or the effect of any of the foregoing, or of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.  
1.09    Divisions.  For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

2.02    Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans.
(a)    Each Term B Borrowing, each Revolving Credit Borrowing, each conversion of Term B Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone.  Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (i) three Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or of any conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans, and (ii) on the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans; provided, however, that if the Borrower wishes to request Eurodollar Rate Loans having an Interest Period of twelve months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. four Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Appropriate Lenders of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is acceptable to all of them and not later than 11:00 a.m., three Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower (which notice may be by telephone) whether or not the requested twelve month Interest Period has been consented to by all the Appropriate Lenders.  Each telephonic notice by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Committed Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.  Each Term B Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, the remaining principal amount of the Term B Commitment).  Each Revolving Credit Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof (or, if less the remaining principal amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment).  Each Term B Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or, if less the remaining principal amount of the Term B Commitment).  Except as provided in Sections 2.03(c) and 2.04(c), each Revolving Credit Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or, if less the remaining principal amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment).  Each Committed Loan Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the Borrower is requesting a Term B Borrowing, a Revolving Credit Borrowing, a conversion of Term B Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Term B Loans or Revolving Credit Loans are to be converted, and (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto.  If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Committed Loan Notice or if the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Term B Loans or Revolving Credit Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans.  Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans.  If the Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.  

50
98931591_9
122373747_5

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Swing Line Loan may not be converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan.
(b)    Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice for a Facility, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of the amount of its Applicable Percentage under such Facility of the applicable Term B Loans or Revolving Credit Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Appropriate Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans described in Section 2.02(a).  In the case of a Term B Borrowing or a Revolving Credit Borrowing, each Appropriate Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice.  Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and, if such Borrowing is (x) the initial Credit Extension on the Closing Date, Section 4.01 or (y), the Credit Extensions to be made on the Restatement Date, Section 7 of the Fifth Amendment), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of Wells Fargo with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower; provided, however, that if, on the date a Committed Loan Notice with respect to a Revolving Credit Borrowing is given by the Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, first, shall be applied to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings, and second, shall be made available to the Borrower as provided above.
(c)    Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan.  During the existence of a Default, no Revolving Credit Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans without the consent of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders and no Term B Loans with respect to any Class may be converted or continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans without the consent of the Required Term B Lenders of such Class.
(d)    The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate.  At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any change in Wells Fargo’s prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change.
(e)    After giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than fifteen Interest Periods in effect in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loans, collectively.  
(f)    If the Borrower selects the Eurodollar Rate for any Credit Extension to be made on or within 3 Business Days of the Restatement Date (including with respect to a Committed Loan Notice requesting a conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Rate Loan during such period), Section 3.05 shall apply.
2.03    Letters of Credit.
(a)    The Letter of Credit Commitment.
(i)     Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) the L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Restatement Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date,

Each request by the Borrower for the issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that the L/C Credit Extension so requested complies with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence.  Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed.  All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto, and from and after the Restatement Date shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof.
(ii)    The L/C Issuer shall not issue any Letter of Credit if:

(B)the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless all the Revolving Credit Lenders (other than Defaulting Lenders) have approved such expiry date.
(iii)    The L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:
(A)    any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to the L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Restatement Date, or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Restatement Date and which the L/C Issuer in good faith deems material to it or the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit is a Sanctioned Person;
(B)    the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the L/C Issuer applicable to letters of credit generally;

52
98931591_9
122373747_5

(C)    except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit (other than the Existing Letters of Credit) is in an initial stated amount less than $200,000;
(D)    such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars or is a commercial letter of credit;
(E)    such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder; or
(F)    any Revolving Credit Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless the L/C Issuer has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, reasonably satisfactory to the L/C Issuer with the Borrower or such Revolving Credit Lender to eliminate the L/C Issuer’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which the L/C Issuer has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its reasonable discretion.
(iv)    The L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of Credit if the L/C Issuer would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof.
(v)    The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) the L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.
(vi)    The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in Article 9 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article 9 included the L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to the L/C Issuer.
(b)    Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit.
(i)    Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.  Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. at least four Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be.  In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the purpose and nature of the requested Letter of 

53
98931591_9
122373747_5

Credit; and (H) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require.  In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (3) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (4) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may reasonably require.  Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may reasonably require.
(ii)    Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof.  Within a reasonable time following receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Revolving Credit Lenders of the contents thereof.  Unless the L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Revolving Credit Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article 4 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit requested by the Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices.  Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit (or on the Restatement Date in the case of the Existing Letters of Credit), each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit.
(iii)    If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued.  Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer for any such extension.  Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.03(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Revolving Credit Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, the Required Revolving Credit Lenders or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such extension.
(iv)    Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

54
98931591_9
122373747_5

(v)    The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the L/C Issuer.  The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.
(c)    Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.
(i)    Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof.  If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent have received notice of such drawing not later than 11:00 a.m. on such date, then not later than 3:00 p.m. on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit and otherwise not later than 3:00 p.m. on the Business Day after receipt of such notice (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing.  If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage thereof.  In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice).  Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.
(ii)    Each Revolving Credit Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available to (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 3:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount.  The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer.
(iii)    With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.  In such event, each Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.
(iv)    Until each Revolving Credit Lender funds its Revolving Credit Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of the L/C Issuer.

55
98931591_9
122373747_5

(v)    Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Committed Loan Notice).  No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.
(vi)    If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Credit Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the L/C Issuer in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing.  If such Revolving Credit Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Loan included in the relevant Revolving Credit Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be.  A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.03(c)(vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d)    Repayment of Participations.
(i)    At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Revolving Credit Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.
(ii)    If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Revolving Credit Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.  The obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
(e)    Obligations Absolute.  The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and 

56
98931591_9
122373747_5

irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:
(i)    any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;
(ii)    the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;
(iii)    any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;
(iv)    any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or
(v)    any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.
(f)    Role of L/C Issuer.  Each Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document.  None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Revolving Credit Lenders or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document.  The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement.  None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower that are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by the L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the L/C Issuer’s 

57
98931591_9
122373747_5

willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.
(g)    Applicability of ISP.  Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Letter of Credit.
(h)    Letter of Credit Fees.  The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance, subject to Section 2.16, with its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate times the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit.  For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06.  Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) due and payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or the first such date to occur after the Restatement Date in the case of the Existing Letters of Credit), on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand and (ii) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears.  If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate (i) in accordance with Section 2.08(b)(i) or (ii) while any Event of Default exists, upon the request of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders.
(i)    Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer.  The Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee (i) with respect to each Letter of Credit (other than the Existing Letters of Credit issued by Bank of America), at the rate per annum specified in the Agent Fee Letter and (ii) with respect to each Existing Letter of Credit issued by Bank of America, at the rate per annum separately agreed to in writing by Bank of America and the Borrower.  Each fronting fee shall be computed on the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears.  Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December in respect of the most recently-ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or the first such date to occur after the Restatement Date in the case of the Existing Letters of Credit), on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand.  For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06.  In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect.  Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.
(j)    Conflict with Issuer Documents.  In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.

58
98931591_9
122373747_5

(k)    Letters of Credit Issued in Respect of Obligations of Loan Parties other than the Borrower.  Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of a Loan Party that is a Subsidiary of the Borrower, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit.  The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the benefit of such other Loan Parties inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such other Loan Parties.
(l)    Reporting of Existing Letters of Credit.  For so long as any Existing Letter of Credit is outstanding, then (i) on the last Business Day of each calendar month, (ii) on each date that any Existing Letter of Credit is amended, terminated or otherwise expires, (iii) on each date that an L/C Credit Extension occurs with respect to any Existing Letter of Credit, and (iv) upon the request of the Administrative Agent, each applicable L/C Issuer shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a report (in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) setting forth information (including, without limitation, any reimbursements, Cash Collateral, or termination) with respect to each Existing Letter of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer that is outstanding hereunder.  No failure on the part of any L/C Issuer to provide such information pursuant to this Section 2.03(l) shall limit the obligations of the Borrower or any Revolving Credit Lender hereunder with respect to its reimbursement and participation obligations, respectively, pursuant to this Section 2.03. 
2.04    Swing Line Loans.
(a)    The Swing Line.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04, may in its sole discretion make loans (each such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) in Dollars to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day after the Restatement Date during the Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment; provided, however, that (x) after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (i) the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Facility at such time and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans of any Revolving Credit Lender at such time, plus such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations at such time, plus such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans at such time shall not exceed such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, (y) the Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan, and (z) the Swing Line Lender shall not be under any obligation to make any Swing Line Loan if it shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that it has, or by such Credit Extension may have Fronting Exposure.  Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow Swing Line Loans under this Section 2.04, prepay such Loans under Section 2.05 and reborrow such Loans under this Section 2.04.  Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.  
(b)    Borrowing Procedures.  Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent in the form of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.  Each such 

59
98931591_9
122373747_5

Swing Line Loan Notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum principal increments of $100,000, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day.  Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any Swing Line Loan Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof.  Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Revolving Credit Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Article 4 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower at its office by crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of the Swing Line Lender in immediately available funds.  
(c)    Refinancing of Swing Line Loans.
(i)    The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may, request, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Revolving Credit Lender make a Revolving Credit Loan that is a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding.  Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Committed Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Facility and provided that no Event of Default exists or would result therefrom.  The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent.  Each Revolving Credit Lender shall make an amount equal to its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the amount specified in such Committed Loan Notice available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral available with respect to the Swing Line Loan) for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Committed Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount.  The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.
(ii)    If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Revolving Credit Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Revolving Credit Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.
(iii)    If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Credit Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date 

60
98931591_9
122373747_5

on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing.  If such Revolving Credit Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Loan included in the relevant Revolving Credit Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be.  A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(iv)    Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02.  No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.
(d)    Repayment of Participations.
(i)    At any time after any Revolving Credit Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.
(ii)    If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate.  The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender.  The obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
(e)    Interest for Account of the Swing Line Lender.  The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line.  Until each Revolving Credit Lender funds its Base Rate Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.
(f)    Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender.  The Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of any Swing Line Loan directly to the Swing Line Lender.
2.05    Prepayments.

(i)    Revolving Credit Loans; and Term B Loans.  Subject to Section 2.05(c) (solely with respect to the Initial Term B Loans) and the penultimate sentence of this Section 2.05(a)(i), the Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay any Class of Term B Loans or Revolving Credit Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (A) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (1) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (2) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (B) any prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof; and (C) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in each case of the foregoing subclauses (B) and (C), if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding.  Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if Eurodollar Rate Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage in respect of the relevant Facility).  If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein; provided that a notice of prepayment delivered by Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the closing of another transaction, the proceeds of which will be used to prepay any outstanding Loans, in which case such prepayment may be conditional upon the effectiveness of such other credit facilities or the closing of such other transaction (provided further that, regardless of the conditionality of such prepayment, the Borrower shall pay any amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05 as a result of its failure to prepay such Loans on the specified date).  Any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.  Each prepayment of the outstanding Term B Loans of any Class pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) shall be applied to the remaining principal repayment installments of such Class as directed by the Borrower, and, subject to Section 2.16, each such prepayment shall be paid to the Appropriate Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages in respect of each of the relevant Facilities.
(ii)    Swing Line Loans.  The Borrower may, upon notice to the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (A) such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. on the date of the prepayment, and (B) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000 (or the remaining outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Loan).  Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment.  If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein; provided that a notice of prepayment delivered by Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the closing of another transaction, the proceeds of which will be used to prepay any outstanding Loans, in which case such prepayment may be conditional upon the effectiveness of such other credit facilities or the closing of such other transaction.  
(b)    Mandatory Prepayments.  
(i)    Excess Cash Flow.  Within five Business Days after financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(a) and the related Compliance Certificate has been delivered pursuant to Section 6.02(b) (such date, the “ECF Calculation Date”), for each Excess Cash Flow Period of the Borrower ending on or after December 31, 2018, the Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Loans equal to the excess (if any) of (A) the ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for the Excess Cash Flow Period covered by such financial statements minus (B) the sum of (1) the aggregate principal amount of Term B Loans 

62
98931591_9
122373747_5

prepaid pursuant to Section 2.05(a)(i) plus (2) the aggregate amount of all optional prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans (solely to the extent accompanied by permanent optional reductions in the Revolving Credit Commitment) plus (3) the aggregate amount paid in cash by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in connection with a prepayment of Term B Loans in accordance with Section 2.18, in each case of clauses (1), (2) and (3), to the extent such prepayments are not funded with Indebtedness (other than Revolving Credit Loans) and were made (x) during the Excess Cash Flow Period or (y) after such Excess Cash Flow Period but prior to the ECF Calculation Date immediately following such Excess Cash Flow Period; provided that, to the extent any deduction is made in accordance with this clause (y) with respect to any prepayments made after any applicable Excess Cash Flow Period but prior to the applicable ECF Calculation Date, the amounts so deducted with respect to such Excess Cash Flow Period shall not be deducted in the Excess Cash Flow Period in which the applicable prepayments were made.  All such prepayments under this clause (i) shall be applied as set forth in clauses (v) and (vii) below.  Not later than the applicable ECF Calculation Date, the Borrower will deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower setting forth the amount, if any, of Excess Cash Flow for the most recently ended Excess Cash Flow Period, any amount deducted in such Excess Cash Flow Period pursuant to clause (y) of this Section 2.05(b)(i), the amount of any required prepayment in respect thereof and the calculation of Excess Cash Flow for such Excess Cash Period, in each case in reasonable detail.

If the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries Disposes of any property (other than any Disposition of any property permitted by subsections (a) through (i) of Section 7.05 and any Disposition of property as a result of an Insurance and Condemnation Event) which results in the realization by such Person of Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $5,000,000, the Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Loans equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds not later than two Business Days after receipt thereof by such Person (such prepayments to be applied as set forth in clauses (v) and (vii) below); provided, however, that with respect to any Net Cash Proceeds realized under a Disposition described in this Section 2.05(b)(ii), at the election of the Borrower (as notified by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date of the required payment under this Section 2.05(b)(ii)), and so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower or such Subsidiary may reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds for Permitted Acquisitions after the Restatement Date or in fixed assets so long as the Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries has committed to make such Permitted Acquisition or reinvestment within 180 days of the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds and such Permitted Acquisition or reinvestment is made within 360 days after the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds; and provided further, however, that any Net Cash Proceeds not so reinvested shall be immediately applied to the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in this Section 2.05(b)(ii).
(iii)    Debt Issuances.  Upon the incurrence or issuance by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of (A) any Refinancing Debt or (B) any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness expressly permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 7.02), the Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Loans equal to 100% of all Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom not later than two Business Days after receipt thereof by the Borrower or such Subsidiary (such prepayments to be applied as set forth in clauses (v) and (vii) below).
(iv)    Insurance and Condemnation Events.  If any Insurance and Condemnation Event occurs, which results in the realization by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $5,000,000, the Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Loans equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds not later than two Business Days after receipt thereof by such Person (such prepayments to be applied as set forth in clauses (v) and (vii) below); provided, however, that with respect to any Net Cash Proceeds realized as a result of an Insurance and Condemnation Event described in this Section 2.05(b)(iv), at the election of the Borrower (as notified by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent on or prior to 

63
98931591_9
122373747_5

the date of the required payment under this Section 2.05(b)(iv)), and so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower or such Subsidiary may reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds for Permitted Acquisitions after the Restatement Date or in fixed assets so long as the Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries has committed to make such Permitted Acquisition or reinvestment within 180 days of the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds and such Permitted Acquisition or reinvestment is made within 360 days after the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds; and provided further, however, that any Net Cash Proceeds not so reinvested shall be immediately applied to the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in this Section 2.05(b)(iv).
(v)    Application of Mandatory Prepayments.  Each prepayment of Loans pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied, first, on a pro rata basis among the Initial Term B Loans and (unless otherwise agreed by the applicable Lenders in respect of any Incremental Term Loans) each of the Incremental Term Loans (with each such prepayment to be applied within each Class, first, to the next eight scheduled principal repayment installments thereof in direct order of maturity and, thereafter, to the remaining scheduled principal payments on a pro rata basis) and, second, to the Revolving Credit Facility in the manner set forth in clause (vii) of this Section 2.05(b).  Proceeds of any Refinancing Debt shall be applied solely to prepay each applicable Class of Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Loans so refinanced.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) to the extent any Incremental Term Loans, Extended Term Loans or Refinancing Term Loans are made, the application of prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to this clause (v) shall be made on a pro rata basis among the Term Loans, Incremental Term Loans, Extended Term Loans and Refinancing Term Loans (except to the extent that any applicable Incremental Amendment, Extension Offer or Refinancing Amendment provides that the Class of Term Loans made thereunder shall be entitled to less than pro rata treatment) and (B) with respect to any Net Cash Proceeds from any Disposition or Insurance and Condemnation Event, the Borrower may prepay Term Loans and prepay or purchase any Refinancing Debt that is secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis (at a purchase price no greater than par plus accrued and unpaid interest), to the extent required thereby, on a pro rata basis in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans and such Refinancing Debt as of the time of the applicable Disposition or Insurance and Condemnation Event.
(vi)    Revolving Credit Loans.  If for any reason the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings at any time exceed the Revolving Credit Facility at such time, the Borrower shall immediately prepay Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Line Loans and L/C Borrowings and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations (other than the L/C Borrowings) in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.
(vii)    Application to Revolving Credit Facility.  Prepayments of the Revolving Credit Facility made pursuant to this Section 2.05(b), first, shall be applied ratably to the L/C Borrowings and the Swing Line Loans, second, shall be applied ratably to the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, and, third, shall be used to Cash Collateralize the remaining L/C Obligations up to an amount equal to 103% of the Outstanding Amount of such L/C Obligations; and, in the case of prepayments of the Revolving Credit Facility required pursuant to clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this Section 2.05(b), the amount remaining, if any, after the prepayment in full of all L/C Borrowings, Swing Line Loans and Revolving Credit Loans outstanding at such time and the Cash Collateralization of the remaining L/C Obligations in full may be retained by the Borrower for use in the ordinary course of its business.  No prepayment under this clause (vii) shall result in any reduction of the Revolving Credit Facility.  Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit that has been Cash Collateralized, the funds held as Cash Collateral shall be applied (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party) to reimburse the L/C Issuer or the Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable.  
(c)    Call Premium.  In the event that, on or prior to the date that is six months after the RestatementSixth Amendment Date, any of the following occurs (any such event, a “Repricing Transaction”; provided that any event or transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) below undertaken in connection with a 

64
98931591_9
122373747_5

Change of Control or a Transformative Acquisition/Investment shall not constitute a “Repricing Transaction” hereunder): 
(i)    the Borrower makes any prepayment or repayment of any of the Initial Term B Loans with the proceeds of, or any conversion of such Initial Term B Loans into, any new or replacement bank Indebtedness bearing interest with an “effective yield” (taking into account, for example, upfront fees, interest rate spreads, interest rate benchmark floors and original issue discount, but excluding the effect of any arrangement, structuring, syndication or other fees payable in connection therewith that are not shared with all lenders or holders of such new or replacement Indebtedness) that is less than the “effective yield” applicable to all or a portion of the applicable Initial Term B Loans subject to such prepayment or repayment or conversion (as such comparative yields are determined in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent consistent with generally accepted financial practices); or
(ii)    the Borrower effects any amendment to this Agreement which reduces the “effective yield” applicable to all or a portion of any of the Initial Term B Loans;
the Borrower will pay a premium (a “Call Premium”), for the ratable account of each Term B Lender that holds Initial Term B Loans that are subject to such Repricing Transaction, in an amount equal to 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Initial Term B Loans subject to such Repricing Transaction (it being understood that any such Call Premium with respect to a Repricing Transaction under clause (c)(ii) shall be paid to each non-consenting Lender that is replaced in such Repricing Transaction pursuant to Section 10.13).  Such Call Premium shall be due and payable within three (3) Business Days of the date of the effectiveness of such Repricing Transaction.
2.06    Termination or Reduction of Commitments.
(a)    Optional.  The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Revolving Credit Facility, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit or from time to time permanently reduce the Revolving Credit Facility, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit without premium or penalty; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. three Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and (iii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce (A) the Revolving Credit Facility if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Revolving Credit Facility, (B) the Letter of Credit Sublimit if, after giving effect thereto, the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations not fully Cash Collateralized hereunder would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit, or (C) the Swing Line Sublimit if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Outstanding Amount of Swing Line Loans would exceed the Swing Line Sublimit; provided further that a notice of termination or reduction delivered by Borrower hereunder may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the closing of another transaction, the proceeds of which will be used to prepay any outstanding Loans, in which case such termination or reduction may be conditional upon the effectiveness of such other credit facilities or the closing of such other transaction.

65

(i)    The aggregate Term B-2 Commitments shall be automatically and permanently reduced to zero on the Delayed Draw Termination Date.
(ii)    If after giving effect to any reduction or termination of Revolving Credit Commitments under this Section 2.06, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the Revolving Credit Facility at such time, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit, as the case may be, shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess.
(c)    Application of Commitment Reductions; Payment of Fees.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of any termination or reduction of the Letter of Credit Sublimit, the Swing Line Sublimit or the Revolving Credit Commitment under this Section 2.06.  Upon any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Revolving Credit Lender shall be reduced by such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of such reduction amount.  All fees in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Revolving Credit Facility shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

98931591_9
122373747_5

2.09    Fees.  In addition to certain fees described in Sections 2.03(h) and (i):
(a)    Commitment Fee.  The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage, a commitment fee (“Commitment Fee”) equal to the Applicable Rate times the actual daily amount by which the Revolving Credit Facility exceeds the sum of (i) the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit Loans and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.16.  The Commitment Fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article 4 is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Restatement Date, and on the last day of the Availability Period.  The Commitment Fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.
(b)    Other Fees.
(i)    The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent or Wells Fargo Securities, as applicable, for its own account and for the account of each Arranger, without duplication, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in each Fee Letter and in the Fifth Amendment.  Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.
(ii)    The Borrower shall pay to the Lenders, without duplication, such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified.  Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.
2.10    Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Rate.
(a)    All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the “prime rate” shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed.  All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year).  Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one day.  Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(b)    If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrower or for any other reason, the Borrower or the Lenders determine that (i) the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrower shall (A) immediately deliver to the Administrative Agent, a corrected Compliance Certificate for such period and (B) immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period.  This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or 

68
98931591_9
122373747_5

the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under Section 2.03(c)(iii), 2.03(h) or 2.08(b) or under Article 8.  The Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.
2.11    Evidence of Debt.
(a)    The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business.  The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon.  Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations.  In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.  Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Revolving Credit Note, a Swing Line Note, a Term B-1 Note and/or, a Term B-2 Note and/or a Term B-3 Note, as applicable, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records.  Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note(s) and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.
(b)    In addition to the accounts and records referred to in Section 2.11(a), each Revolving Credit Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Revolving Credit Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans.  In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Revolving Credit Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.
2.12    Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.
(a)    General.  All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 p.m. on the date specified herein.  The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage in respect of the relevant Facility (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office.  All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 12:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.  If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected on computing interest or fees, as the case may be.
(b)    Funding by Lenders; Payments by Borrower.
(i)    Funding by Lenders; Presumptions by Administrative Agent.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume 

69
98931591_9
122373747_5

that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the 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 Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.  If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period.  If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.  Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.
ii)    Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent.  Unless the     Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Appropriate Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Appropriate Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing.
(c)    Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent.  If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article 2, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article 4 and, if applicable, Section 7 of the Fifth Amendment are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.
(d)    Obligations of Lenders Several.  The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c) are several and not joint.  The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the 

70
98931591_9
122373747_5

failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.04(c).
(e)    Funding Source.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.
2.13Sharing of Payments by Lenders.  If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations (other than pursuant to Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05 or 10.04) greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them; provided that:
(i)    if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and
(ii)    the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender or Disqualified Institution), (B) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 2.15, or (C) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply (unless consented to by the Required Lenders), except to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 10.01.
The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.
2.14    Incremental Increases.
(a)    Request for Incremental Increases.  At any time after the Delayed Draw Termination Date, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may, from time to time, request one or more incremental term loans or increases in the Outstanding Amount of any Class of Term Loan (each, an “Incremental Term Loan”) or one or more increases in the Revolving Credit Facility (each, a “Revolving Credit Facility Increase” and, together with the initial principal amount of the Incremental Term Loans, the “Incremental Increases”); provided that: 
(i)    the principal amount of each requested Incremental Increase shall not exceed the sum of: 

71
98931591_9
122373747_5

(A)    $300,000,000 less the aggregate original principal amount of all other Incremental Increases incurred after the Delayed Draw Termination Date pursuant to this clause (A) (whether or not such Incremental Increases have been funded); plus
(B)    the amount that is equal to the greatest amount of additional Indebtedness that, as of the Increase Effective Date of such Incremental Increase, would not cause the pro forma Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio to exceed 3.25 to 1.00 (it being understood and agreed that the calculation of the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio under this clause (B) shall be determined based on the financial information received for the fiscal quarter most recently ended prior to the Increase Effective Date for which financial statements have been delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 7 of the Fifth Amendment, Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(b), as applicable, after giving effect to such Incremental Increase (assuming that all Incremental Increases are fully funded on the effective date thereof) and to the related use of proceeds thereof (including any permanent repayment of Indebtedness in connection therewith)); plus
(C)    the sum of (1) the aggregate principal amount of Term B Loans prepaid pursuant to Section 2.05(a)(i) plus (2) the aggregate amount of all optional prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans (solely to the extent accompanied by permanent optional reductions in the Revolving Credit Commitment) plus (3) the aggregate amount paid in cash by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in connection with a prepayment of Term B Loans in accordance with Section 2.18; in each case to the extent such prepayments are not funded with the proceeds of Indebtedness that, in accordance with GAAP (constitutes, or when incurred, constituted) a long-term liability;
provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, (x) amounts shall be established or incurred utilizing clause (B) above prior to utilizing clauses (A) or (C) above, and (y) any amounts previously incurred utilizing clause (A) or (C) above may, at the election of Borrower, later be reclassified as having been incurred under clause (B) above, so long as the Borrower meets the requirements of clause (B) above at the time of, and after giving effect to, such reclassification (in which case the amount available under clauses (A) and/or (C), as applicable, shall be increased by the amount so reclassified); and
(ii)    any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum principal amount of $25,000,000 for any Incremental Term Loan and $10,000,000 for any Revolving Credit Facility Increase or, in each case, any lesser remaining amount permitted pursuant to the foregoing clause (i).
(b)    Incremental Lenders.  Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Increase.  Incremental Increases may be provided by any existing Lender (but no existing Lender will have any obligation to make a portion of any Incremental Increase) or by any other Persons (each such Person referred to in this sentence that agrees to provide any portion of an Incremental Increase, an “Incremental Lender”); provided that the Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and/or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, shall have consented (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to such Incremental Lender’s providing such Incremental Increases to the extent any such consent would be required under Section 10.06(b) for an assignment of Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, to such Incremental Lender.  At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Incremental Lender is requested to respond, which shall in no event be less than 10 Business Days from the 

72
98931591_9
122373747_5

date of delivery of such notice to the proposed Incremental Lenders (or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent and each Incremental Lender, in their sole discretion).  Each proposed Incremental Lender may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, and shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether it agrees, to provide an Incremental Increase and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than or less than requested.  Any Person not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to provide an Incremental Increase.
(c)    Increase Effective Date and Allocations.  The Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such Incremental Increase.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Incremental Lenders of the final allocation of such Incremental Increases and the Increase Effective Date (limited in the case of the Incremental Lenders to their own respective allocations thereof).  
(d)    Conditions to Effectiveness of Incremental Increases.  Any Incremental Increase shall become effective as of such Increase Effective Date; provided that, subject to Section 1.07, each of the following conditions has been satisfied or waived as of such Increase Effective Date::
(i)    no Default shall exist on such Increase Effective Date immediately prior to or after giving effect to (A) such Incremental Increase or (B) the making of any Credit Extensions pursuant thereto;
(ii)    immediately prior to and after giving effect to (A) such Incremental Increase and (B) the making of any Credit Extensions pursuant thereto, the conditions set forth in Section 4.02(a) are satisfied;
(iii)    the Borrower is in pro forma compliance with (A) the Debt Incurrence Test and (B) the financial covenant set forth in Section 7.11 (regardless of whether a Suspension Period is in effect at such time) based on the financial statements most recently delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 7 of the Fifth Amendment, Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(b), as applicable, in each case after giving effect to such Incremental Increase (in each case, assuming that all Incremental Increases are fully funded on the effective date and after giving effect to any then applicable Secured Leverage Ratio Increase and any permanent repayment of Indebtedness in connection therewith);
(iv)    each such Incremental Increase shall be effected pursuant to an amendment (each, an “Incremental Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Incremental Lenders, which Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.14.  Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Incremental Increase having a maturity date that ends after the then latest maturity date hereunder, to the extent reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, the respective Loan Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the maturity date applicable to such Incremental Increase so that such maturity date is extended to the then latest maturity date hereunder (after giving effect to such Incremental Increase) (or such later date as may be advised by outside counsel to the Administrative Agent);
(v)    in the case of each Incremental Term B Loan:

73
98931591_9
122373747_5

(A)    such Incremental Term B Loan will mature and amortize in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Incremental Lenders making such Incremental Term B Loan and the Borrower, but will not in any event have a shorter weighted average life to maturity than the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the Initial Term B-23 Loan or a maturity date earlier than the Term B-23 Maturity Date; and
(B)    the Applicable Rate and pricing grid, if applicable, for such Incremental Term B Loan shall be determined by the applicable Incremental Lenders and the Borrower on the applicable Increase Effective Date; provided that if the Applicable Rate in respect of any Incremental Term B Loan that is secured on a pari passu basis with the Initial Term B Loans and incurred on or prior to the date that is twelve (12) months after the Restatement Date (determined with reference to each pricing tier of any applicable pricing grid) exceeds the Applicable Rate for the Initial Term B-1 Loan or, the Initial Term B-2 Loan or the Initial Term B-3 Loan (in each case, as determined by the Administrative Agent) by more than 0.50%, then the Applicable Rate for the Initial Term B-1 Loan and/or, the Initial Term B-2 Loan and/or the Initial Term B-3 Loan, as applicable, shall be increased (including by way of inclusion of a pricing grid) so that the Applicable Rate in respect of such Initial Term B-1 Loan and/or the, such Initial Term B-2 Loan and/or such Initial Term B-3 Loan is equal to the Applicable Rate for such Incremental Term B Loan minus 0.50% (determined at each level of each applicable pricing grid); provided further that in determining the Applicable Rate(s) applicable to each Incremental Term B Loan and the Applicable Rate(s) for each Initial Term B Loan, (1) original issue discount (“OID”) or upfront fees (which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of OID) payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under such Incremental Term B Loan or such Initial Term B Loan in each case in the initial primary syndication thereof shall be included (with OID being equated to interest based on assumed four-year life to maturity, or, if the remaining life to maturity is less than four years, based on the remaining life to maturity) and (2) customary arrangement, underwriting or commitment fees payable to any of the Arrangers in connection with the Initial Term B-1 Loan (including any such fees paid on the Restatement Date), any Arranger (or its affiliates) in connection with the Initial Term B-2 Loan or the Initial Term B-3 Loan or to one or more arrangers (or their affiliates) of any Incremental Term B Loan shall be excluded (it being understood that all interest rate margins and the effects of any and all interest rate floors shall be included in determining Applicable Rate(s) under this provision); 
(vi)    in the case of each Revolving Credit Facility Increase:
(A)    such Revolving Credit Facility Increase shall mature on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as the Revolving Credit Loans (except for interest rate margins, commitment fees and upfront fees; provided that if the interest rate margins and/or commitment fees in respect of any Revolving Credit Facility Increase exceed the interest rate margins and/or commitment fees for any other Revolving Credit Commitments, then the interest rate margins and/or commitment fees, as applicable, for such other Revolving Credit Commitments shall be increased so that the interest rate margins and/or commitment fees, as applicable, are equal to the interest rate margins and/or commitment fees for such Revolving Credit Facility Increase); 
(B)    the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages of Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations will be reallocated by the Administrative Agent on the applicable Increase Effective Date among the Revolving Credit 

74
98931591_9
122373747_5

Lenders (including the Incremental Lenders providing such Revolving Credit Facility Increase) in accordance with their revised Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages (and the Revolving Credit Lenders (including the Incremental Lenders providing such Revolving Credit Facility Increase) agree to make all payments and adjustments necessary to effect such reallocation and the Borrower shall pay any and all costs required pursuant to Section 3.05 in connection with such reallocation as if such reallocation were a repayment); and
(C)    except as provided above, all of the other terms and conditions applicable to such Revolving Credit Facility Increase shall, except to the extent otherwise provided in this Section 2.14, be identical to the terms and conditions applicable to the Revolving Credit Facility; and 
(vii)    the terms and conditions of any Incremental Increase shall be set forth in the relevant Incremental Amendment and, except as provided in the foregoing clauses of this Section 2.14 or in the case of terms that are consistent with the Initial Term B-23 Loan, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower; provided that all of the terms of any junior lien Incremental Term Loan shall include differences from the Initial Term B Loans as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably deem to be customary for such junior lien financings.
(e)    Nature of Obligations.  Each Incremental Increase shall constitute Obligations of the Borrower and shall be (A) secured and guaranteed with the other Credit Extensions on a pari passu basis or (B) in the case of any junior lien Incremental Term B Loans, secured with the other Credit Extensions on a second lien basis subject to an intercreditor agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(f)    Voting.  Any Incremental Lender providing any portion of a Revolving Credit Facility Increase shall be entitled to the same voting rights as the existing Revolving Credit Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility and any Credit Extensions made in connection with each Revolving Credit Facility Increase shall receive proceeds of prepayments on the same basis as the other Revolving Credit Loans made hereunder and the Incremental Lenders shall be included in any determination of the Required Lenders, Required Revolving Credit Lenders, Required Term B Lenders or similar term hereunder, as applicable.
(g)    Conflicting Provisions.  This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.
2.15    Cash Collateral.  At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of the L/C Issuer and/or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount.
(a)    Grant of Security Interest.  The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans, to be applied pursuant to subsection (b) below.  If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender as herein provided (other than Liens permitted by Section 7.01), or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the 

75
98931591_9
122373747_5

Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).
(b)    Application.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.15 or Section 2.16 in respect of Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.
(c)    Termination of Requirement.  Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the Fronting Exposure of the L/C Issuer and/or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.15 following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.16, the Person providing Cash Collateral, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.
2.16    Defaulting Lenders.
(a)    Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:
(i)    Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders, Required Pro Rata Lenders, Required Revolving Credit Lenders, Required Term B Lenders and Section 10.01.
(ii)    Defaulting Lender Waterfall.  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 8 or otherwise), or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of the L/C Issuer and the Swing Ling Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.15; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan or funded participation in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (A) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans and funded participations under this Agreement and (B) Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s and the Swing Line Lender’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.15; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the 

76
98931591_9
122373747_5

Lenders, the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (A) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or funded participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (B) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and funded participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or funded participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv).  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
(iii)    Certain Fees. 
(A)    No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).
(B)    Each Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Credit Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.15.  
(C)    With respect to any fee payable under Section 2.09(a) or any Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrower shall (1) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Credit Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (2) pay to the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such L/C Issuer’s or Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (3) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.
(iv)    Reallocation of Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders which are Revolving Credit 

77
98931591_9
122373747_5

Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the sum of the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit Loans of any Non-Defaulting Lender plus such Non-Defaulting Lender’s ratable share (determined based on its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage) of L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment.  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.
(v)    Cash Collateral; Repayment of Swing Line Loans.  If the reallocation described in clause (a)(iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under applicable Law, (A) first, prepay Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (B) second, Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.15.
(b)    Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and, in the event that a Defaulting Lender is a Revolving Credit Lender, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Revolving Credit Loans of the other Revolving Credit Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Credit Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided, that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
2.17    Extensions of Term Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments.
(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by the Borrower to all Lenders of any Class of Term Loans with a like maturity date or Revolving Credit Commitments with a like maturity date, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the respective Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments with a like maturity date, as the case may be) and on the same terms to each such Lender, the Borrower is hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions with individual Lenders that accept the terms contained in such Extension Offers to extend the maturity date of each such Lender’s Term Loans of such Class and/or Revolving Credit Commitments and otherwise modify the terms of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant Extension Offer (including, without limitation, by increasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings) and/or modifying the amortization schedule in respect of such Term Loans) (each, an “Extension”, and each group of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, in each case as so extended, as well as the original Term Loans and the original Revolving Credit Commitments (in each case not so extended), being 

78
98931591_9
122373747_5

a separate “tranche” and a separate Class; any Extended Term Loans shall constitute a separate tranche and Class of Term Loans from the tranche and Class of Term Loans from which they were converted, and any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall constitute a separate tranche and Class of Revolving Credit Commitments from the tranche and Class of Revolving Credit Commitments from which they were converted), so long as the following terms are satisfied: 
(i)    no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time the offering document in respect of an Extension Offer is delivered to the Lenders or immediately prior to, and immediately after, the effectiveness of such Extension, 
(ii)    except as to interest rates, fees and final maturity (which shall be determined by the Borrower and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Revolving Credit Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Revolving Credit Commitment (an “Extending Revolving Credit Lender”) extended pursuant to an Extension (an “Extended Revolving Credit Commitment”), and the related outstandings, shall be a Revolving Credit Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with the same terms as the original Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings); provided that: 
(A)    the borrowing and repayment (except for (1) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings), (2) repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extending Revolving Credit Commitments and (3) repayment to any Lender that is not an Extending Revolving Credit Lender made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments) of Loans with respect to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Credit Commitments, 
(B)    all Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Revolving Credit Commitments in accordance with their Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages,
(C)    the permanent repayment of Revolving Credit Loans with respect to, and termination of, Extended Revolving Credit Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Credit Commitments, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such tranche on a better than a pro rata basis as compared to any other tranche with a later maturity date than such tranche, and 
(D)    assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and extended Revolving Credit Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit Loans,
(iii)    except as to interest rates, fees, amortization, final maturity date, premium, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments (which shall, subject to immediately succeeding clauses (iv), (v) and (vi), be determined by the Borrower and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Term Loans of any Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Term Loans extended pursuant to any Extension (“Extended Term Loans”) shall have the same terms as the Class of Term Loans subject to such Extension Offer, provided that:

79
98931591_9
122373747_5

(A)    the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans shall be no earlier than the latest maturity date hereunder, 
(B)    the weighted average life to maturity of any Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the applicable Class of Term Loans extended thereby, 
(C)    any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Extension Offer, 
(iv)    if the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) or Revolving Credit Commitments, as the case may be, in respect of which Lenders shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrower pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans, as the case may be, of such Lenders shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Lenders have accepted such Extension Offer,
(v)    all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing, and
(vi)    at no time shall there be more than two different Classes of Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder or five different Classes of Term Loans hereunder (including the Initial Term B-1 Loans, the Initial Term B-2 Loans, the Initial Term B-3 Loans, any Incremental Term Loans, any Extended Term Loans and any Refinancing Term Loans).
(b)    With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrower pursuant to this Section, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Section 2.05 and (ii) unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent, each Extension Offer shall be in a minimum principal amount (to be specified in the relevant Extension Offer) for the applicable Class to be extended of (A) $100,000,000 with respect to Term Loans and (B) $25,000,000 with respect to Revolving Credit Commitments (in each case, or, if less, the remaining amount of such Class).  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments on the such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section. 
(c)    No consent of any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be required to effectuate any Extension, other than (i) the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one or more of its Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments (or a portion thereof), and (ii) with respect to any Extension of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the consent of the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.  All Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other applicable Secured Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrower as may be necessary in order to establish new Classes or sub-

80
98931591_9
122373747_5

Classes in respect of Revolving Credit Commitments or Term Loans so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such new tranches or sub-tranches, in each case on terms consistent with this Section. In addition, if so provided in such amendment and with the consent of each L/C Issuer, participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the maturity date of any Revolving Credit Commitments that are not extended shall be re-allocated from Lenders holding Revolving Credit Commitments to Lenders holding Extended Revolving Credit Commitments in accordance with the terms of such amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding Revolving Credit Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such Revolving Credit Commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including, without limitation, the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extensions, to the extent reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, the respective Loan Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the then latest maturity date so that such maturity date is extended to the then latest maturity date hereunder (or such later date as may be advised by outside counsel to the Administrative Agent). 
(d)    In connection with any Extension, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent at least 10 Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (including, without limitation, regarding timing, rounding and other adjustments and to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section. 
2.18    Reverse Dutch Auction Prepayments.
(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Borrower may at any time and from time to time after the Delayed Draw Termination Date conduct reverse Dutch auctions in order to prepay any Class of Term B Loans below par value on a non-pro rata basis (each, an “Auction”, and each such Auction to be managed exclusively by the Administrative Agent or another investment bank of recognized standing selected by the Borrower and acceptable to the Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Auction Manager”)), so long as the following conditions are satisfied:
(i)    each Auction shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures, terms and conditions set forth in this Section and the Auction Procedures;
(ii)    no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom on the date of the delivery of each Auction Notice and at the time of prepayment of any Term B Loans in connection with any Auction and after giving effect to any Indebtedness incurred in connection therewith;
(iii)    the principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Term B Loans that the Borrower offers to repay in any such Auction shall be no less than $10,000,000 and whole increments of $500,000 in excess thereof (unless another amount is agreed to by the Administrative Agent and Auction Manager);
(iv)    after giving effect to any prepayment of Term B Loans pursuant to this Section and any Indebtedness incurred in connection therewith, the Borrower shall be in pro forma compliance with (A) the Debt Incurrence Test and (B) the financial covenant set forth in Section 7.11 (regardless of whether a Suspension Period is in effect at such time) based on the financial statements most 

81
98931591_9
122373747_5

recently delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 7 of the Fifth Amendment, Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(b), as applicable (after giving effect to any then applicable Secured Leverage Ratio Increase);
(v)    immediately prior to and immediately after giving effect to any prepayment of Term B Loans pursuant to this Section and any Indebtedness incurred in connection therewith there shall not be any Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit Loans;
(vi)    the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Term B Loans so prepaid by the Borrower shall automatically be cancelled and retired by the Borrower on the settlement date of the relevant prepayment;
(vii)    no more than one Auction may be ongoing at any one time;
(viii)    the Borrower represents and warrants that, at the time of each such Auction and at the time of any prepayment of Term B Loans pursuant to such Auction, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries shall have any material non-public information (within the meaning of the United States federal securities laws, “MNPI”) with respect to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, any securities of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the Borrower’s ability to perform any obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other matter that may be material to a decision by any Lender to participate in any such prepayment of Term B Loans pursuant to this Section, in any case, that has not been previously disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (other than because such Lender does not wish to receive MNPI) prior to such time and could reasonably be expected to have a material effect upon, or otherwise be material to, a Lender’s decision to participate in the Auction;
(ix)    at the time of each prepayment of Term B Loans through the Auction the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Auction Manager an officer’s certificate executed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying as to compliance with the preceding clauses (ii), (iv), (v) and (viii); and
(x)    any Auction shall be offered to all Lenders with outstanding Term B Loans of the applicable Class that are to be prepaid on a pro rata basis. 
(b)    The Borrower must terminate an Auction if it fails to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth above which are required to be met at the time which otherwise would have been the time of prepayment of Term B Loans pursuant to the respective Auction. If the Borrower commences any Auction (and all relevant requirements set forth above which are required to be satisfied at the time of the commencement of the respective Auction have in fact been satisfied), and if at such time of commencement the Borrower reasonably believes that all required conditions set forth above which are required to be satisfied at the time of the prepayment of Term B Loans pursuant to such Auction shall be satisfied, then the Borrower shall have no liability to any Lender for any termination of the respective Auction as a result of its failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth above which are required to be met at the time which otherwise would have been the time of prepayment of Term B Loans pursuant to the respective Auction, and any such failure shall not result in any Default hereunder. With respect to all prepayments of Term B Loans made by the Borrower pursuant to this Section, (i) the Borrower shall pay on the settlement date of each such prepayment all accrued and unpaid interest and fees (except to the extent otherwise set forth in the relevant offering documents), if any, on the prepaid Term B Loans up to the settlement date of such prepayment and (ii) such prepayments shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 2.05 or 2.06.

(c)    The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to any Auction and the other transactions contemplated by this Section (provided that no Lender shall have an obligation to participate in any such Auctions) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.05 and 2.13) that may otherwise prohibit any Auction or any other transaction contemplated by this Section.  The parties hereto understand and acknowledge that prepayments of the Term B Loans by the Borrower contemplated by this Section shall not constitute Investments by the Borrower.  The Auction Manager acting in its capacity as such hereunder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of Article 9 and Section 10.04 mutatis mutandis as if each reference therein to the “Administrative Agent” were a reference to the Auction Manager, and the Administrative Agent shall cooperate with the Auction Manager as reasonably requested by the Auction Manager in order to enable it to perform its responsibilities and duties in connection with each Auction.
2.19    Refinancing Facilities.  
(a)    Refinancing Term Loans.  
(i)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent request the establishment of one or more additional tranches or Classes of term loans under this Agreement (“Refinancing Term Loans”) or one or more series of debt securities (“Refinancing Notes” and, together with Refinancing Term Loans, “Refinancing Debt”), which refinance, renew, replace, defease or refund (collectively, “Refinance”) one or more Classes of Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments (and Revolving Credit Loans thereunder) under this Agreement; provided that 
(A)    no Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom;
(B)    the principal amount of such Refinancing Debt may not exceed the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments being Refinanced plus accrued and unpaid interest and fees thereon, any prepayment premiums applicable thereto and reasonable fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith;
(C)    the Net Cash Proceeds of such Refinancing Debt shall be applied, concurrently or substantially concurrently with the incurrence thereof, solely to the repayment of the outstanding amount of one or more Classes of Term Loans and/or to permanently reduce one or more Classes of Revolving Credit Commitments, as the case may be, being Refinanced thereby;
(D)    each Class of Refinancing Term Loans shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or such other amount necessary to repay any Class of outstanding Term Loans in full);
(E)    in the case of any Refinancing of Term Loans, the final maturity date of such Refinancing Debt shall not be earlier than the maturity date of the Term Loans being Refinanced, and the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinancing Debt shall be no earlier than the then remaining weighted average life to maturity of each Class of Term Loans being Refinanced; provided that any Indebtedness that automatically converts to, or is exchangeable into, notes or other Indebtedness that meet this clause (E) shall be deemed to satisfy this condition so long as the Borrower or applicable Loan Party irrevocably agrees 

83
98931591_9
122373747_5

at the time of the issuance thereof to take all actions necessary to convert or exchange such Indebtedness); 
(F)    subject to clause (E) above, in the case of any Refinancing of Term Loans, such Refinancing Debt shall have pricing (including interest rates, fees and premiums), amortization, optional prepayment, mandatory prepayment and redemption terms as may be agreed to by the Borrower and the relevant Refinancing Term Lenders or the Persons providing such Refinancing Notes, as applicable, so long as, in the case of any mandatory prepayment or redemption provisions, such Refinancing Debt does not participate on a greater basis in any such prepayments as compared to the Term Loans being Refinanced; provided that with respect to any Refinancing Debt that is in the form of Permitted Convertible Indebtedness neither (1) any provision of such Indebtedness requiring an offer to purchase such Permitted Convertible Indebtedness as a result of a change of control, delisting or asset sale or other fundamental change nor (2) any early conversion or exchange of (or the ability to convert or exchange early) such Permitted Convertible Indebtedness in accordance with the terms of the documentation governing such Permitted Convertible Indebtedness shall violate this clause (F);
(G)    all other terms applicable to such Refinancing Debt shall be substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) be otherwise not more favorable to (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) the lenders providing such Refinancing Debt than those applicable to the then outstanding Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments, except to the extent such covenants and other terms apply solely to any period after the latest final maturity date of the Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments existing at the time of such refinancing or replacement (or, in the case of any unsecured or second lien Refinancing Debt, after the date 91 days after such latest final maturity date); 
(H)    Refinancing Debt may rank pari passu or junior in right of payment with the remaining Revolving Credit Commitments, Revolving Credit Loans and/or Term Loans or may be unsecured so long as the holders of any Refinancing Debt that are subordinated in right of payment are subject to a subordination agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower;
(I)    any Refinancing Debt that is secured, may be secured by the Collateral on a pari passu or junior basis, so long as (A) the holders of any Refinancing Notes (or a duly authorized agent on their behalf) or any junior lien Refinancing Debt are subject to an intercreditor agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (B) any Refinancing Debt is (x) not secured by any assets that do not also constitute Collateral and (y) secured pursuant to security documentation that is, taken as a whole, not materially more restrictive to the Loan Parties than the Collateral Documents;
(J)    such Refinancing Debt shall not be secured by (i) Liens on assets other than assets securing the Indebtedness or Commitments being Refinanced or (ii) Liens having a higher priority than the Liens, if any, securing the Indebtedness or Commitments being Refinanced;
(K)    no Subsidiary is a borrower or a guarantor with respect to such Refinancing Debt unless such Subsidiary is a Loan Party which shall have previously or substantially 

84
98931591_9
122373747_5

concurrently guaranteed, or shall be a borrower with respect to, the Secured Obligations; and
(L)    no existing Lender shall be required to provide any Refinancing Debt.
(ii)    Each such notice shall specify the date (each, a “Refinancing Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the Refinancing Debt be made, which shall be a date reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.
(iii)    The Borrower may approach any Lender or any other Person that would be an Eligible Assignee of Term Loans pursuant to Section 10.06 to provide all or a portion of the Refinancing Term Loans (each a “Refinancing Term Lender”); provided that any Lender offered or approached to provide all or a portion of the Refinancing Term Loans may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a Refinancing Term Loan.  Any Refinancing Term Loans made on any Refinancing Effective Date shall be designated a series (a “Refinancing Term Loan Series”) of Refinancing Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Refinancing Term Loans may, to the extent provided in the applicable Refinancing Term Loan Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Refinancing Term Loan Series of Refinancing Term Loans made to the Borrower.
(iv)    The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.19(a) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the payment of interest, fees, amortization or premium in respect of the Refinancing Term Loans on the terms specified by the Borrower) and hereby waive the requirements of this Agreement (including Section 2.13 and Section 10.01) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit such Refinancing or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.19(a).  The Refinancing Term Loans shall be established pursuant to an amendment to this Agreement among the Borrower and the Refinancing Term Lenders providing such Refinancing Term Loans (a “Refinancing Term Loan Amendment”) which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in Section 2.19(a)(i).  The Refinancing Notes shall be established pursuant to documentation which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in Section 2.19(a)(i).  Each Refinancing Term Loan Amendment shall be binding on the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Loan Parties party thereto and the other parties hereto without the consent of any other Lender and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.19(a), including in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches in respect of the Refinancing Term Loans and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in connection therewith and to adjust the amortization schedule in Section 2.07(a) (insofar as such schedule relates to payments due to Lenders the Term Loans of which are Refinanced; provided that no such amendment shall reduce the pro rata share of any such payment that would have otherwise been payable to the Lenders, the Term Loans of which are not Refinanced).  The Administrative Agent shall be permitted, and each is hereby authorized, to enter into such Refinancing Amendments with the Borrower to effect the foregoing.  The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of conditions consistent with the conditions in Section 4.02 and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of (i) customary legal opinions, board resolutions and officers’ certificates consistent with those delivered on the Restatement Date (conformed as appropriate) other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (ii) reaffirmation 

85
98931591_9
122373747_5

agreements and/or such amendments to the Collateral Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in order to ensure that such Refinancing Term Loan is provided with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents.
(v)    The Administrative Agent is authorized to enter into any applicable intercreditor agreement (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, such agreements) and to take all actions (and execute all documents) required (or otherwise deemed advisable by the Administrative Agent) in connection with the incurrence by any Loan Party of any Refinancing Debt, in order to permit such Refinancing Debt to be secured by a valid, perfected lien and the parties hereto acknowledge that any such intercreditor agreement will be binding upon them.  Each Lender (i) hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of any applicable intercreditor agreement and (ii) hereby authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to enter into any applicable intercreditor agreement (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, such agreements) in connection with the incurrence by any Loan Party of any Refinancing Debt, in order to permit such Refinancing Debt to be secured by a valid, perfected lien and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Secured Obligations to the provisions thereof.
(b)    Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments.
(i)    The Borrower may by written notice to Administrative Agent request the establishment of one or more additional revolving facilities under this Agreement providing for revolving commitments (“Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments” and the revolving loans thereunder, “Replacement Revolving Loans”) which Refinances one or more Classes of Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Term Loans under this Agreement; provided, that any such Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments may not be in an amount greater than the Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Term Loans being Refinanced plus unpaid accrued interest and premium (if any) thereon and underwriting discounts, fees, commissions, costs and expenses in connection therewith.  Each such notice shall specify the date (each, a “Replacement Revolving Credit Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments shall become effective, which shall be a date not less than three (3) Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent; provided that:
(A)    no Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom;
(B)    no Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments shall have a scheduled termination date prior to the latest stated maturity date applicable to the Revolving Credit Commitments, Revolving Credit Loans and/or Term Loans being Refinanced;

(D)    all other terms applicable to such Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments shall be substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) be otherwise not more favorable to (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) the lenders providing such Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments than those applicable to the then outstanding Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments, except to the extent such covenants 

86
98931591_9
122373747_5

and other terms apply solely to any period after the latest final maturity date of the Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments existing at the time of such refinancing or replacement (or, in the case of any unsecured or second lien Replacement Revolving Credit Commitment after the date 91 days after such latest final maturity date); provided, that Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments may rank pari passu or junior in right of payment and/or security with the remaining Revolving Credit Commitments, Revolving Credit Loans and/or Term Loans or may be unsecured so long as the holders of any Replacement Revolving Commitments and/or Replacement Revolving Loans that are subordinated in right of payment and/or security are subject to an intercreditor agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; and
(E)    such Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments shall not be secured by (i) Liens on assets other than assets securing the Indebtedness being Refinanced or (ii) Liens having a higher priority than the Liens, if any, securing the Indebtedness being Refinanced.
(ii)    The Borrower may approach any Lender or any other Person that would be an Eligible Assignee of a Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to Section 10.06 to provide all or a portion of the Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments (a “Replacement Revolving Lender”); provided that any Lender offered or approached to provide all or a portion of the Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a Replacement Revolving Credit Commitment and the selection of Replacement Revolving Lenders shall be subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and/or the SwinglineSwing Line Lender to the extent the same would be required pursuant to Section 10.06.  Any Replacement Revolving Credit Commitment made on any Replacement Revolving Credit Effective Date shall be designated a series (a “Replacement Revolving Commitment Series”) of Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments may, to the extent provided in the applicable Replacement Revolving Facility Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Replacement Revolving Commitment Series.
(iii)    The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.19(b) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the payment of interest, fees, or premium in respect of the Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments and Replacement Revolving Loans on the terms specified by the Borrower) and hereby waive the requirements of this Agreement (including Section 2.13 and Section 10.01) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.19(b).  The Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment to this Agreement among the Borrower and the Replacement Revolving Lenders providing such Replacement Revolving Loans and, if applicable, any replacement L/C Issuer and/or replacement SwinglineSwing Line Lender thereunder (a “Replacement Revolving Facility Amendment”) which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in Section 2.19(b)(i).  Each Replacement Revolving Facility Amendment shall be binding on the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Loan Parties party thereto and the other parties hereto without the consent of any other Lender, and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.19(b), including in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches in respect of the Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments and Replacement Revolving Loans.  The Administrative Agent shall be permitted, and each is hereby authorized to enter into such amendments with the Borrower to effect the foregoing.

87
98931591_9
122373747_5

(iv)    If any Replacement Revolving Credit Commitment is designated as an increase in any previously established Replacement Revolving Credit Commitment, on the Replacement Revolving Credit Effective Date, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, each of the Replacement Revolving Lenders with Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments of such Replacement Revolving Commitment Series shall purchase from each of the other Lenders with Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments of such Replacement Revolving Commitment Series, at the principal amount thereof and in the applicable currencies, such interests in the Revolving Credit Loans under such Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments outstanding immediately prior to such Refinancing as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, the Replacement Revolving Loans of such Replacement Revolving Commitment Series will be held by Replacement Revolving Lenders thereunder ratably in accordance with their Replacement Revolving Credit Percentages.
(c)    Limited Number of Tranches.  Notwithstanding the terms of Sections 2.14, 2.18 and 2.19, in no event shall there be more than (i) two (2) tranches of revolving facilities in the aggregate in effect at any time (including the Revolving Credit Commitments, any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and any Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments) and (ii) five (5) tranches of term loans (including the Initial Term B-1 Loans, the Initial Term B-2 Loans, the Initial Term B-3 Loans, any Incremental Term Loans, any Extended Term Loans and any Refinancing Term Loans), in each case under this Agreement.
 
ARTICLE 3
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

3.01    Taxes.
(a)    L/C Issuer.  For purposes of this Section 3.01, the term “Lender” includes the L/C Issuer and the term “applicable Law” includes FATCA. 
(b)    Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.
(i)    Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws.  If any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after any such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.
(c)    Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower.  The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

88
98931591_9
122373747_5

(i)    Indemnification by the Loan Parties.  The Loan Parties shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient or payable or paid by such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided, however, that the Loan Parties shall not be obligated to make payment to a Recipient pursuant to this Section 3.01(d) in respect of penalties, interest and other similar liabilities attributable to any Indemnified Taxes required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient or payable or paid by such Recipient, if (A) written demand therefor has not been made by such Recipient within 180 days from the date on which it received written notice of the imposition of Indemnified Taxes by the relevant Governmental Authority (but only to the extent that making such demand after such 180-day period gave rise to such penalties, interest and other similar liabilities), or (B) such penalties, interest and other similar liabilities are attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Recipient.  A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Recipient (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(ii)    Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall, severally indemnify, the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand for, (A) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but 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), (B) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.06(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (C) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower 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.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (ii).
(e)    Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable, after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.01, 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 any return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(f)    Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation.
(i)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by 

89
98931591_9
122373747_5

applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.01(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,
(A)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from United States federal backup withholding tax; 
(B)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(I)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, United States federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, United States federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(II)    executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(III)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable successor form); or
(IV)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable successor form), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 or Exhibit G-3, IRS 

90
98931591_9
122373747_5

Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)    if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(iii)    Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 3.01 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(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 (including by payment of additional amounts) pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party, as the case may be, 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, agrees to repay to each indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this clause (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event the indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this clause (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or 

91
98931591_9
122373747_5

additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.  This subsection shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(h)    Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.01 shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
3.02    Illegality.  If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended and replaced with an obligation of such Lender to fund Base Rate Loans rather than Eurodollar Rate Loans, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.  Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate.  Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.
3.03    Inability to Determine Rates.  
(a)    Circumstances Affecting the Availability of the Eurodollar Rate.   Unless and until a Benchmark Replacement Rate is implemented in accordance with clause (b) below, if, in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a Base Rate Loan as to which the interest rate is determined with reference to the Eurodollar Rate or a conversion to or continuation thereof or otherwise, if for any reason (i) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that reasonable and adequate means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan or any Base Rate Loan as to which the interest rate is determined with reference to the Eurodollar Rate or (iii) the Required Revolving Credit Lenders in the case of the Revolving 

92
98931591_9
122373747_5

Credit Facility or the Required Term B Lenders in the case of any Class of Term B Loans shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that for any reason the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans during such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.  Thereafter, until (x) in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist or (y) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility or the Required Term B Lenders in the case of any Class of Term B Loans) revokes such notice, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans (or Base Rate Loans as to which the interest rate is determined with reference to the Eurodollar Rate) and the right of the Borrower to convert any Loan to, or continue any Loan as a Eurodollar Rate Loan (or a Base Rate Loan as to which the interest rate is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate) shall be suspended, with any such suspension with respect to clause (iii) above to apply only to the Facility with respect to which such notice was given.  Upon receipt of such notice, and (i) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Borrower shall either (A) repay in full (or cause to be repaid in full) the then outstanding principal amount of each such Eurodollar Rate Loan together with accrued interest thereon (subject to Section 2.10(a)), on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan; or (B) convert the then outstanding principal amount of each such Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan as to which the interest rate is not determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate as of the last day of such Interest Period; or (ii) in the case of Base Rate Loans as to which the interest rate is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate, the Borrower shall convert the then outstanding principal amount of each such Loan to a Base Rate Loan as to which the interest rate is not determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate as of the last day of such Interest Period.  Each of the Lenders agrees that if clauses (i) or (ii) above apply to Base Rate Loans, then the Base Rate will be determined without reference to the Eurodollar Rate.
(b)    Alternative Rate of Interest.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 3.02 and 3.03(a) above, if the Administrative Agent determines (such determination to be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances described in Section 3.03(a)(i) or (a)(ii) have arisen and that such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (ii) any applicable interest rate specified herein is no longer a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in the U.S. syndicated loan market in the applicable currency or (iii) the applicable supervisor or administrator (if any) of any applicable interest rate specified herein or any Governmental Authority having, or purporting to have, jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which any applicable interest rate specified herein shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans in the U.S. syndicated loan market in the applicable currency, then the Administrative Agent may, to the extent practicable (in consultation with the Borrower and as determined by the Administrative Agent to be generally in accordance with similar situations in other transactions in which it is serving as administrative agent or otherwise consistent with market practice generally), establish a replacement interest rate (the “Replacement Rate”), in which case, the Replacement Rate shall, subject to the next two sentences, replace such applicable interest rate for all purposes under the Loan Documents unless and until (A) an event described in Section 3.03(a)(i), (a)(ii), (b)(i), (b)(ii) or (b)(iii) occurs with respect to the Replacement Rate or (B) the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders through the Administrative Agent) notifies the Borrower that the Replacement Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the Loans bearing interest at the Replacement Rate.  In connection with the establishment and application of the Replacement Rate, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, as they determine may be necessary or appropriate, to effect the provisions of this Section 3.03(b).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 10.01), such amendment shall become effective without any further 

93
98931591_9
122373747_5

action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the delivery of such amendment to the Lenders, written notices from such Lenders that in the aggregate constitute Required Lenders, with each such notice stating that such Lender objects to such amendment (which such notice shall note with specificity the particular provisions of the amendment to which such Lender objects).  To the extent the Replacement Rate is approved by the Administrative Agent in connection with this clause (b), the Replacement Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that, in each case, to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Replacement Rate shall be applied as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent (it being understood that any such modification by the Administrative Agent shall not require the consent of, or consultation with, any of the Lenders).  Effect of Benchmark Transition Event.  
(i)    Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the Eurodollar Rate with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of the Eurodollar Rate with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date. 
(ii)    Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement. 
(iii)    Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (A) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (B) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (C) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (D) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section 3.03(b), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.03(b). 
(iv)    Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During any Benchmark 

94
98931591_9
122373747_5

Unavailability Period, the component of the Base Rate based upon the Eurodollar Rate will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.
3.04    Increased Costs.
(a)    Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:
(i)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.04(e)) or the L/C Issuer;
(ii)    subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
(iii)    impose on any Lender or the L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender, the L/C Issuer or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender, the L/C Issuer or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, the L/C Issuer or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon written request of such Lender, the L/C Issuer or other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, the L/C Issuer or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, the L/C Issuer or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b)    Capital Requirements.  If any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the L/C Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time upon written request of such Lender or such L/C Issuer the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c)    Certificates for Reimbursement.  A certificate of a Lender, the L/C Issuer or such other Recipient setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender, the L/C Issuer, such other Recipient or any of their respective holding companies, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The 

95
98931591_9
122373747_5

Borrower shall pay such Lender, the L/C Issuer or such other Recipient, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.
(d)    Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender, the L/C Issuer or such other Recipient to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s, the L/C Issuer’s or such other Recipient’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any other Recipient pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender, the L/C Issuer or such other Recipient, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s, the L/C Issuer’s or such other Recipient’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
(e)    Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans.  The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan; provided the Borrower shall have received at least 10 Business Days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender.  If a Lender fails to give notice 10 Business Days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable 10 Business Days from receipt of such notice.
3.05    Compensation for Losses.  Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:
(a)    any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);
(b)    any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower; or
(c)    any assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 10.13;
including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.  The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.
For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

3.06    Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
(a)    Designation of a Different Lending Office.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender, the L/C Issuer, or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender or the L/C Issuer shall, as applicable at the request of the Borrower, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Credit Extensions hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or the L/C Issuer in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(b)    Replacement of Lenders.  If any Lender (i) requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01 or (ii) gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, unless notices under Section 3.02 have been given by Lenders holding at least fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Loans and Commitments under any applicable tranche, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different Lending Office in accordance with Section 3.06(a), then the Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.13.
3.07    Survival.  All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article 3 shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, repayment of all Obligations hereunder, and resignation of the Administrative Agent.

Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned and not to be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, consented to by the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned and not to be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) and accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that in no event shall any successor Administrative Agent be a Disqualified Institution; provided further that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (b) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint and the Borrower consents to (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned and not to be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent), and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not 

138
98931591_9
122373747_5

already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section).  The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.  After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
Any resignation by Wells Fargo as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be), (ii) the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (iii) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit.
9.07    Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender and the L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender and the L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

9.09    Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(a)    to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Secured 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 L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(h) and (i), 2.09 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(c)    to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 7.01(i).
Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.10.  In each case as specified in this Section 9.10, the Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.10.

Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein or in any Guaranty or any Collateral Document, no Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank that obtains the benefits of Section 8.03, any Guaranty or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Guaranty or any Collateral Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 9 to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Secured Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Secured Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be.

Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable Law, including United States federal and state securities Laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain MNPI with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States federal or state securities laws.

(e)    Reliance by Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and Lenders.  The Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic or electronic Committed Loan Notices, Letter of Credit Applications and Swing Line Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof.  The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower.  All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.
10.03    No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement.  No failure by any Lender, the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.  The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.02 for the benefit of all the Lenders and the L/C Issuer; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 10.08 (subject to the terms of Section 2.13), or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.13, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

(b)    Indemnification by the Borrower.  The Borrower and each other Loan Party shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Arranger, each Lender and the L/C Issuer, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related reasonable and documented costs and expenses (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of (x) one counsel to the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates and, if reasonably necessary, a single specialty or local counsel for the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates in each relevant specialty or jurisdiction, as applicable and (y) one counsel to all Indemnitees taken as a whole (other than the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates) and, if reasonably necessary, a single specialty or local counsel for all Indemnitees taken as a whole (other than the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates) in each relevant specialty or jurisdiction, as applicable; provided that in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest with respect to any of the foregoing counsel, one additional counsel in each relevant specialty or jurisdiction, as applicable, to each group of affected Indemnitees similarly situated and taken as a whole), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions, the Restatement Date Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including in respect of any matters addressed in Section 3.01), (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related costs or expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable 

147
98931591_9
122373747_5

judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or such Indemnitee’s Related Indemnified Parties (as defined below), (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or any other Loan Document, if the Borrower or such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment from a court of competent jurisdiction in its favor on such claim, or (z) any dispute solely among the Indemnitees (other than any claims (i) against an Indemnitee in its capacity as or in fulfilling its role as an agent or arranger or any similar role under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (ii) arising out of any act or omission of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates).  Neither Borrower nor any Loan Party shall, as to any Indemnitee, be liable for any settlement entered into by such Indemnitee if such settlement was effected without the Borrower’s or such Loan Party’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), but if settled with the written consent of the Borrower or such Loan Party or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff in connection therewith, the Borrower and the Loan Parties agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses by reason of such settlement or judgment in accordance with this Section 10.04(b); provided further that if any Indemnitee shall have requested indemnification or contribution in accordance with this Agreement, the Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall be liable for any settlement or other action referred to in this sentence effected without their consent, if (1) such settlement or other action is entered into more than thirty (30) days after receipt by the Borrower or such Loan Party of such request for indemnification or contribution and (2) the Borrower or such Loan Party has not provided such indemnification or contribution in accordance with such request prior the date of such settlement or other action.  This Section 10.04(b) shall not apply with respect to any Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.  As used herein, “Related Indemnified Party” means, as to any Indemnitee, such Indemnitee’s Controlled Affiliates or its or their respective employees, partners or Controlled Persons.
(c)    Reimbursement by Lenders.  To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to pay in full in cash any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, but without relieving the Borrower from its obligation to do so, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity.  The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(d).
(d)    Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each party to this Agreement agrees not to assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any other party to this Agreement, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that nothing in this sentence shall limit the Borrower’s or any other Loan Parties’ indemnity or reimbursement obligations herein or in the other Loan Documents to the extent that such special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages are included in any third party claim with which any Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or reimbursement hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.  No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or 

148
98931591_9
122373747_5

other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
(e)    Payments.  All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than five Business Days after demand therefor.
(f)    Survival.  The agreements in this Section and the indemnity provisions of Section 10.02(e) shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.
10.05    Payments Set Aside.  To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and the L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.  The obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
10.06    Successors and Assigns.
(a)    Successors and Assigns Generally.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06(d), or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.06(e) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b)    Assignments by Lenders.  Any Lender may at any time after the Delayed Draw Termination Date, assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment(s) and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 10.06(b), 

149
98931591_9
122373747_5

participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i)    Minimum Amounts.
(A)    in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment under any Facility and the Loans at the time owing to it under such Facility or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B)    in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the 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 or, if a “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility, or $1,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of the Term B Facility, or an amount to be determined and set forth in the applicable Incremental Amendment, in the case of any assignment in respect of a separate tranche of Incremental Term Loans, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) to a lesser amount;
(ii)    Proportionate Amounts.  Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not (A) apply to the Swing Line Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of Swing Line Loans or (B) prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis;
(iii)    Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:
(A)    the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or (f) has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or, (3) in the case of any assignment of Initial Term B-2 Loans that is made in connection with the primary syndication of the Facilities and during the period commencing on the Restatement Date and ending on the date that is 60 days following the Restatement Date or (4) in the case of any assignment of Initial Term B-3 Loans that is made in connection with the primary syndication of the Initial Term B-3 Loan and during the period commencing on the Sixth Amendment Date and ending on the day that is 60 days following the Sixth Amendment Date; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received notice thereof;

150
98931591_9
122373747_5

(B)    the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) shall be required for assignments in respect of (1) any Revolving Credit Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Commitment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender or (2) any Term Loan to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and
(C)    the consent of the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility.
(iv)    Assignment and Assumption.  The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment.  The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
(v)    No Assignment to Certain Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural person or (D) a Disqualified Institution.
(vi)    Certain Additional Payments.  In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (A) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (B) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05 and 10.04 with respect to facts 

151
98931591_9
122373747_5

and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a  Defaulting Lender.  Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.06(d).
(c)    Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption and each Incremental Amendment delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(d)    Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender or, the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 10.04(c) without regard to the existence of any participation.
Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant.  The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.01(f) shall be delivered to the Lender who sells the participation); provided that such Participant (A) agrees to provide to the applicable Lender the forms described in Section 3.01(f) as though it were a Lender providing such forms to the Borrower and to be subject to the provisions of Sections 3.06 and 10.13 as if it were an assignee under subsection (b) of this Section and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.01 or 3.04, with respect to any participation, than the Lender from whom it acquired the applicable participation would have been entitled to receive unless the sale of such participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent.  Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower's request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.06 with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to 

152
98931591_9
122373747_5

Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) or Proposed Section 1.163-5(b) 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.
(e)    Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(f)    Resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender after Assignment.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Wells Fargo assigns all of its Revolving Credit Commitment and Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 10.06(b), Wells Fargo may, (i) upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer and/or (ii) upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower, resign as Swing Line Lender.  In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Wells Fargo as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be.  If Wells Fargo resigns as L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)).  If Wells Fargo resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in any such outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c).  Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and/or Swing Line Lender, (A) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (B) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Wells Fargo to effectively assume the obligations of Wells Fargo with respect to such Letters of Credit.
(g)    Disqualified Institutions.
(i)    No assignment shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified Institution as of the date (the “Trade Effective Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless the Borrower has consented to such assignment in writing in its sole and absolute 

153
98931591_9

Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

10.26    Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs.  To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Contracts or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and, each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the FDIC under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): 
(a)    In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.  

(b)    As used in this Section 10.26, the following terms have the following meanings:

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

“Covered Entity” means any of the following:

(i)    a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b);

(ii)    a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or

163
98931591_9
122373747_5

(iii)    a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

“QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).     

(c) The Administrative Agent and each Arranger hereby informs the Lenders that each such Person is not undertaking to provide impartial investment advice, or to give advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and that such Person has a financial interest in the transactions contemplated hereby in that such Person or an Affiliate thereof (i) may receive interest or other payments with respect to the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (ii) may recognize a gain if it extended the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments for an amount less than the amount being paid for an interest in the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments by such Lender or (iii) may receive fees or other payments in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, the Loan Documents or otherwise, including structuring fees, commitment fees, arrangement fees, facility fees, upfront fees, underwriting fees, ticking fees, agency fees, administrative agent or collateral agent fees, utilization fees, minimum usage fees, letter of credit fees, fronting fees, deal-away or alternate transaction fees, amendment fees, processing fees, term out premiums, banker’s acceptance fees, breakage or other early termination fees or fees similar to the foregoing.

EXHIBIT H
AUCTION PROCEDURES
This Exhibit H is intended to summarize certain basic terms of the Auction Procedures pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.18 of that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of June 5, 2015 (as amended, restated, extended, supplemented, amended and restated  or otherwise modified in time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among ASGN Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Lenders from time to time party thereto, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, of which this Exhibit H is a part.  This Exhibit H is not intended to be a definitive statement of all of the terms and conditions of an Auction, the definitive terms and conditions for which shall be set forth in the applicable offering document.  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Exhibit H have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.
(a)    Notice Procedures. In connection with each Auction, the Borrower will provide notification to the Auction Manager (for distribution to the Term B Lenders of the applicable Class(es)) of the Class or Classes of Term B Loans that will be the subject of such Auction (each, an “Auction Notice”).  Each Auction Notice shall contain (i) the maximum principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof and not to exceed the remaining amount permitted to be prepaid through Auctions in accordance with Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement) of each Class of Term B Loans that the Borrower offers to prepay in such Auction (the “Auction Amount”), which shall be no less than $10,000,000 and whole increments of $500,000 in excess thereof (unless another amount is agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Auction Manager); (ii) the range of discounts to par or the amount below a certain discount to par (the “Discount Range”), expressed as a range of prices per $1,000 (in increments of $5), at which the Borrower would be willing to prepay Term B Loans of each applicable Class in such Auction; and (iii) the date and time on which such Auction will conclude, on which date and time Return Bids (as defined below) will be due (the “Expiration Time”).  Such Expiration Time may be extended for an additional period as agreed to between the Auction Manager and the Borrower.  An Auction shall be regarded as a “failed auction” in the event that either (x) the Borrower withdraws such Auction in accordance with the terms hereof or (y) the Expiration Time occurs with no Qualifying Bids (as defined below) having been received.  In the event of a failed auction, the Borrower shall not be permitted to deliver a new Auction Notice prior to the date occurring three (3) Business Days after such withdrawal or Expiration Time, as the case may be.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Borrower shall not initiate any Auction by delivering an Auction Notice to the Auction Manager until after the conclusion (whether successful or failed) of the previous Auction (if any), whether such conclusion occurs by withdrawal of such previous Auction or the occurrence of the Expiration Time of such previous Auction.
(b)    Reply Procedures.  In connection with any Auction, each Term B Lender of the applicable Class(es) wishing to participate in such Auction shall, prior to the Expiration Time, provide the Auction Manager with a notice of participation, in the form included in the respective offering document (each, a “Return Bid”) which shall specify (i) a discount to par that must be expressed as a price per $1,000 (in increments of $5) in principal amount of Term B Loans (the “Reply Price”) of the applicable Class within the Discount Range and (ii) the principal amount of Term Loans of the applicable Class, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, that such Lender offers for sale at its Reply Price (the “Reply Amount”).  A Lender may submit a Reply Amount that is less than the minimum amount and incremental amount requirements described above only if the Reply Amount comprises the entire amount of the Term B Loans of the applicable Class held by such Term B Lender.  Term B Lenders may only submit one Return Bid per Class per Auction but each Return Bid may contain up to three (3) component bids, each of which may result in a separate Qualifying Bid and each of which will not be contingent on any other component bid submitted by such Term B Lender resulting in a Qualifying Bid.  The 

Exhibit H-1
Auction Procedures

Borrower will not prepay any Term B Loans at a price that is outside of the applicable Discount Range, nor will any Return Bids (including any component bids specified therein) submitted at a price that is outside such applicable Discount Range be considered in any calculation of the Applicable Threshold Price (as defined below).
(c)    Acceptance Procedures.  Based on the Reply Prices and Reply Amounts received by the Auction Manager, the Auction Manager, in consultation with the Borrower, will calculate the lowest price (the “Applicable Threshold Price”) for such Auction within the Discount Range for such Auction that will allow the Borrower to complete the Auction by prepaying the full Auction Amount (or such lesser amount of Term B Loans (i) for which the Borrower has received Qualifying Bids or (ii) as the Borrower may select (which shall be no less than $10,000,000)).  The Borrower shall prepay Term B Loans of the applicable Class from each Term B Lender whose Return Bid is within the Discount Range and contains a Reply Price that is equal to or less than the Applicable Threshold Price (each, a “Qualifying Bid”).  All Term B Loans of the applicable Class included in Qualifying Bids (including multiple component Qualifying Bids contained in a single Return Bid) received at a Reply Price lower than the Applicable Threshold Price will be prepaid at such applicable Reply Prices and shall not be subject to proration.
(d)    Proration Procedures.  All Term B Loans offered in Return Bids (or, if applicable, any component thereof) constituting Qualifying Bids at the Applicable Threshold Price will be prepaid at the Applicable Threshold Price; provided that if the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Term B Loans of the applicable Class for which Qualifying Bids have been submitted in any given Auction at the Applicable Threshold Price would exceed the remaining portion of the Auction Amount (after deducting all Term B Loans of the applicable Class to be prepaid at prices below the Applicable Threshold Price), the Borrower shall prepay the Term B Loans of the applicable Class for which the Qualifying Bids submitted were at the Applicable Threshold Price ratably based on the respective principal amounts offered and in an aggregate amount equal to the amount necessary to complete the prepayment of the Auction Amount.  No Return Bids or any component thereof will be accepted above the Applicable Threshold Price.
(e)    Notification Procedures.  The Auction Manager will calculate the Applicable Threshold Price and post the Applicable Threshold Price and proration factor onto an internet or intranet site (including the Platform) in accordance with the Auction Manager’s standard dissemination practices on the same Business Day as the date the Return Bids were due (as such due date may be extended in accordance with this Exhibit H).
(f)    Additional Procedures.  Once initiated by an Auction Notice, the Borrower may withdraw an Auction only in the event that, as of such time, no Qualifying Bid has been received by the Auction Manager.  Furthermore, in connection with any Auction with respect to a particular Class of Term B Loans, upon submission by a Term B Lender of a Return Bid, such Term B Lender will not have any withdrawal rights.  Any Return Bid (including any component bid thereof) delivered to the Auction Manager may not be modified, revoked, terminated or cancelled by a Term B Lender.  However, an Auction may become void if the conditions to the prepayment of Term B Loans of the applicable Class by the Borrower required by the terms and conditions of Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement are not met.  The prepayment amount in respect of each Qualifying Bid for which prepayment by the Borrower is required in accordance with the foregoing provisions shall be paid directly by the Borrower to the respective Term B Lender on a settlement date as determined jointly by the Borrower and the Auction Manager (which shall be no later than ten (10) Business Days after the Expiration Time).  All questions as to the form of documents and validity and eligibility of Term B Loans that are the subject of an Auction will be determined by the Auction Manager, in consultation with the Borrower, and their determination will be final and binding so long as such determination is not inconsistent with the terms of Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement or this Exhibit H.  The Auction Manager’s interpretation of the terms and conditions of the offering document, in consultation 

Exhibit H-2
Auction Procedures

with the Borrower, will be final and binding so long as such interpretation is not inconsistent with the terms of Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement or this Exhibit H.  None of the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager or any of their respective affiliates assumes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the information concerning the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, or any of their Affiliates (whether contained in an offering document or otherwise) or for any failure to disclose events that may have occurred and may affect the significance or accuracy of such information.
This Exhibit H shall not require the Borrower to initiate any Auction, nor shall any Term B Lender be obligated to participate in any Auction.
None of the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager, the Arrangers or any of their respective Related Parties makes any recommendation as to whether or not any Term B Lender should participate in any Auction or as to any Reply Price or Reply Amount. Each Term B Lender shall make its own independent decision as to whether to participate in any Auction and, if so, the principal amount and proposed price to be included in its Return Bid.  Each Term B Lender should consult its own attorneys, business advisors and tax advisors as to legal, business, tax and related matters concerning any proposed Auction.

Each party agrees as follows for the benefit of the other parties and for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of $550,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Issuer’s 4.625% Senior Notes due 2028 issued on the date hereof (the “Initial Notes”) and (ii) Additional Notes issued from time to time (together with the Initial Notes, the “Notes”):
ARTICLE I
DEFINITIONS
SECTION 1.01.    Definitions.  For purposes of this Indenture, except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires the following terms have the meanings indicated below.
“Additional Assets” means
(1)    any Property used in a Related Business;
(2)    the Capital Stock of a Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of the acquisition of such Capital Stock by the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary; or
(3)    Capital Stock constituting a minority interest in any Person that at such time is a Restricted Subsidiary;
provided, however, that any such Restricted Subsidiary described in clause (2) or (3) above is primarily engaged in a Related Business.
“Additional Notes” means Notes issued under the terms of this Indenture subsequent to the Issue Date and in compliance with Section 4.03, it being understood that any Notes issued in exchange for or replacement of any Initial Note shall not be an Additional Note.
“Affiliate” of any specified Person means any other Person, directly or indirectly, controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified Person.  For the purposes of this definition, “control,” when used with respect to any Person, means the power to direct the management and policies of such Person, directly or indirectly, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise; and the terms “controlling” and “controlled” have meanings correlative to the foregoing.  No Person (other than the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer) in whom a Receivables Entity makes an Investment in connection with a Qualified Receivables Transaction will be deemed to be an Affiliate of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries solely by reason of such Investment.
“Applicable Premium” means, with respect to any Note being redeemed on any applicable redemption date, as determined by the Issuer, the greater of:
(1)    1% of the then outstanding principal amount of the Note; and
(2)    the excess of: (a) the present value at such redemption date of (i) the redemption price of the Note at the First Call Date (such redemption price being set forth in the table appearing Exhibit A) plus (ii) all required interest payments due on the Note through the First Call Date (excluding accrued but unpaid interest), computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate as of such redemption date plus 50 basis points; over (b) the then outstanding principal amount of the Note.

“Approved Commercial Bank” means a commercial bank with a consolidated combined capital and surplus of at least $5,000,000,000.
“Asset Disposition” means any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition (or series of related sales, leases, transfers or dispositions) by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, including any disposition by means of a merger, consolidation or similar transaction (each referred to for the purposes of this definition as a “disposition”), of:
(1)    any shares of Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary (other than directors’ qualifying shares or shares required by applicable law to be held by a Person other than the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary); or
(2)    any other Property of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary outside of the ordinary course of business of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary (including by way of Sale/Leaseback Transaction),
in each case other than:
(A)    a disposition by a Restricted Subsidiary to the Issuer or by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary to a Restricted Subsidiary;
(B)    for purposes of Section 4.06 only, a disposition that constitutes a Restricted Payment (or would constitute a Restricted Payment but for the exclusions from the definition thereof) that is not prohibited by Section 4.04 or that constitutes a Permitted Investment;
(C)    (i) a disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Issuer in accordance with Section 5.01 or any disposition that constitutes a Change of Control and (ii) a disposition of all or substantially all the assets of any Guarantor in accordance with Section 5.01(b)(1);
(D)    a disposition of Capital Stock or other Property with a Fair Market Value of less than or equal to the greater of (i) $50.0 million and (ii) 2.0% of Total Assets, as determined based on the consolidated balance sheet of the Issuer as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available;
(E)    dispositions of receivables in connection with the compromise, settlement or collection thereof in the ordinary course of business or in bankruptcy or similar proceedings and exclusive of factoring or similar arrangements;
(F)    sales of accounts receivable and related Property of the type specified in the definition of “Qualified Receivables Transaction” to a Receivables Entity;
(G)    transfers of accounts receivable and related Property of the type specified in the definition of “Qualified Receivables Transaction” (or a fractional undivided interest therein) by a Receivables Entity in a Qualified Receivables Transaction;
(H)    the lease, assignment or sublease of any Property in the ordinary course of business that does not interfere in any material respect with the business of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole;
(I)    a disposition of cash or Temporary Cash Investments;
(J)    the sale of any Property in a Sale/Leaseback Transaction within twelve months of the acquisition of such Property;

-2-

(K)    the creation of a Lien (but not the sale or other disposition of the Property subject to such Lien);
(L)    any exchange of Property (including a combination of Property and cash or cash equivalents) for Property related to a Related Business of comparable or greater market value or usefulness to the business of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole;
(M)    foreclosure or any similar action with respect to any Property of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries;
(N)    any disposition of Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to an agreement or other obligation with or to a Person (other than the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary) from whom such Restricted Subsidiary was acquired or from whom such Restricted Subsidiary acquired its business and Property (having been newly formed in connection with such acquisition), made as part of such acquisition and in each case comprising all or a portion of the consideration in respect of such sale or acquisition;
(O)    the settlement or early termination of any Permitted Bond Hedge Transaction and the settlement or early termination of any related Permitted Warrant Transaction;

(1)    the sum of the products of the numbers of years from the date of determination to the dates of each successive scheduled principal payment of or redemption or similar payment with respect to such Indebtedness multiplied by the amount of such payment by
(2)    the sum of all such payments.
“Bankruptcy Code” means Title 11 of the United States Code.
“Bankruptcy Law” means the Bankruptcy Code and any similar federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership law for the relief of debtors.
“Board of Directors” means, as to any Person, the board of directors or managers, as applicable, of such Person (or, if such Person is a partnership or a limited liability company, the board of directors or other governing body of the general partner or managing member of such Person) or, except in the context of the definition of “Change of Control,” a duly authorized committee thereof.
“Business Day” means each day which is not a Legal Holiday.

-3-

“Capital Lease Obligation” means, at the time any determination thereof is to be made, the amount of the liability in respect of a finance lease that would at such time be required to be capitalized and reflected as a liability on a balance sheet (excluding the footnotes thereto) in accordance with GAAP; provided that obligations of the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries, or of a special purpose or other entity not consolidated with the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, either existing on the Issue Date or created thereafter that (a) initially were not included on the consolidated balance sheet of the Issuer as finance lease obligations and were subsequently recharacterized as finance lease obligations or, in the case of such a special purpose or other entity becoming consolidated with the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, were required to be characterized as finance lease obligations upon such consolidation, in either case, due to a change in accounting treatment or otherwise, or (b) did not exist on the Issue Date and were required to be characterized as finance lease obligations but would not have been required to be treated as finance lease obligations under GAAP as in effect on December 31, 2018 had they existed at that time, shall for all purposes not be treated as Capital Lease Obligations or Indebtedness.  For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to the accounting for leases as either operating leases or finance leases and the impact of such accounting in accordance with FASB ASC 842 on the definitions and covenants herein, GAAP as in effect on December 31, 2018 shall be applied and any lease (whether entered into before or after the Issue Date) that would have been classified as an operating lease (including the amount of the liability in respect of the operating lease that would at such time be required to be reflected as a liability on a balance sheet) pursuant to GAAP as in effect on December 31, 2018 will be deemed not to represent a Capital Lease Obligation or Indebtedness.
“Capital Markets Indebtedness” means any Indebtedness:  (1) in the form of, or represented by, bonds (other than surety bonds, indemnity bonds, performance bonds or bonds of a similar nature) or other securities or any Guarantee thereof; and (2) that is, or may be, quoted, listed or purchased and sold on any stock exchange, automated trading system or over-the-counter or other securities market (including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the market for securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act).  
“Capital Stock” of any Person means any and all shares, interests (including partnership interests), rights to purchase, warrants, options, participations or other equivalents of or interests in (however designated) equity of such Person, including any Preferred Stock, but excluding any debt securities convertible into such equity.
“Captive Insurance Subsidiary” means any entity established for the purpose of providing insurance coverage solely for the benefit of the Issuer and/or one or more of the Issuer’s Subsidiaries.
“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following events:
(1)    any “person” or “group” (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act, but excluding any employee benefit plan of such person or its subsidiaries, and any person or entity acting in its capacity as trustee, agent or other fiduciary or administrator of any such plan), other than a Permitted Holder, becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, except that a person or group shall be deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of all securities that such person or group has the right to acquire (such right, an “option right”), whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time), directly or indirectly, of 50% or more of the equity securities of the Issuer entitled to vote for members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer on a fully-diluted basis (and taking into account all such securities that such person or group has the right to acquire pursuant to any warrant or option right); or
(2)    the sale, lease or transfer, in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all the assets of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to a Person other than a Permitted Holder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing:  (A) the transfer of assets between or among the Issuer and the Guarantors shall not itself constitute a Change of Control pursuant to clause (2) above; and (B) a “person” or “group” shall not be deemed to have beneficial ownership of securities subject to a stock purchase agreement, merger agreement or similar agreement (or voting or option agreement related thereto) until the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such agreement.

-4-

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed to involve a Change of Control solely as a result of any Parent Entity or the Issuer becoming a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of a holding company if (A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Voting Stock of the Issuer immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no person (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) other than the Permitted Holders is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company.
“Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any applicable Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.
“Consolidated Amortization Expense” means, for any Person for any period, the amortization expense of such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries for such period (to the extent included in the computation of Consolidated Net Income of such Person), determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP, excluding amortization expense attributable to a prepaid item that was paid in cash in a prior period.
“Consolidated Coverage Ratio” as of any date of determination means the ratio of (a) the aggregate amount of Consolidated EBITDA for the period of the most recent four consecutive fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available to the date of such determination to (b) Consolidated Interest Expense for such four fiscal quarters; provided, however, that:
(1)    if the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary has Incurred any Indebtedness since the beginning of such period that remains outstanding or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio is an Incurrence of Indebtedness, or both, Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis to such Indebtedness (and the application of the proceeds thereof) as if such Indebtedness had been Incurred on the first day of such period;
(2)    if the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary has repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged any Indebtedness since the beginning of such period or if any Indebtedness is to be repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged (in each case, other than Indebtedness Incurred under any revolving credit facility unless such Indebtedness has been permanently repaid and has not been replaced) on the date of the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated on a pro forma basis as if such discharge had occurred on the first day of such period and as if the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary had not earned the interest income actually earned during such period in respect of cash or Temporary Cash Investments used to repay, repurchase, defease or otherwise discharge such Indebtedness;
(3)    if since the beginning of such period the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary shall have made any Asset Disposition, Consolidated EBITDA for such period shall be reduced by an amount equal to Consolidated EBITDA (if positive) directly attributable to the assets that are the subject of such Asset Disposition for such period, or increased by an amount equal to Consolidated EBITDA (if negative) directly attributable thereto for such period, and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated Interest Expense directly attributable to any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged with respect to the Issuer and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such Asset Disposition for such period (or, if the Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary is sold, the Consolidated Interest Expense for such period directly attributable to the Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary to the extent the Issuer and the continuing Restricted Subsidiaries are no longer liable for such Indebtedness after such sale);
(4)    if since the beginning of such period the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (by merger or otherwise) shall have made an Investment in any Restricted Subsidiary (or any Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary) or an acquisition of assets, including any acquisition of assets occurring in 

-5-

connection with a transaction requiring a calculation to be made hereunder, that constitutes all or substantially all of an operating unit of a business, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including the Incurrence of any Indebtedness) as if such Investment or acquisition had occurred on the first day of such period; and
(5)    if since the beginning of such period any Person (that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period) shall have made any Asset Disposition, any Investment or acquisition of assets that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (3) or (4) above if made by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary during such period, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Asset Disposition, Investment or acquisition had occurred on the first day of such period.
For purposes of making the computation referred to above, Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations and discontinued operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP), in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, that the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary has made during the four-quarter reference period or subsequent to such reference period and on or prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of the Consolidated Coverage Ratio is being made (“Consolidated Coverage Calculation Date”) (each for purposes of this definition, a “pro forma event”) shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations and discontinued operations (and the change of any associated fixed charge obligations and the change in Consolidated EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period.  If since the beginning of such period any Restricted Subsidiary is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated a Restricted Subsidiary, then the Consolidated Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period.
If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the Consolidated Coverage Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness).  Interest on a Capital Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Issuer to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capital Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP.  For purposes of making the computation referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period.

SECTION 1.04.    No Incorporation by Reference of Trust Indenture Act.  This Indenture is not qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, and the Trust Indenture Act shall not apply to or in any way govern the terms of this Indenture, including Section 316(b) thereof.  A, no provisions of the Trust Indenture Act are incorporated into this Indenture unless expressly incorporated pursuant to this Indenture.
SECTION 1.05.    Limited Condition Transactions.
(a)    When calculating the availability under any basket or ratio under this Indenture or compliance with any provision of this Indenture in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, any actions or transactions related thereto (including, without limitation, acquisitions, Investments, the Incurrence of Indebtedness and issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds therefrom, the incurrence of Liens and Restricted Payments), and determining compliance with Defaults and Events of Default, in each case, at the option of the Issuer (the Issuer’s election to exercise such option, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination for availability under any such basket or ratio and whether any such action or transaction is permitted (or any requirement or condition therefor is complied with or satisfied (including, without limitation, as to the absence of any continuing Default or Event of Default)) under this Indenture, shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (or, if applicable, the date of delivery of an irrevocable notice or similar event) (the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including, without limitation, acquisitions, Investments, the Incurrence of Indebtedness and issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds therefrom, the incurrence of Liens and Restricted Payments) on a pro forma basis, the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries would have been permitted to take such actions or consummate such transactions on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, test or basket and any related requirements and conditions, such ratio, test or basket and any related requirements and conditions shall be deemed to have been complied with or satisfied for all purposes under this Indenture (in the case of Indebtedness, for example, whether such Indebtedness is committed, issued or otherwise Incurred at the LCT Test Date or at any time thereafter); provided that compliance with such ratios, tests or baskets and any related requirements and conditions shall not be determined or tested at any time after the applicable LCT Test Date for such Limited Condition Transaction or any actions or transactions related thereto (including, without limitation, acquisitions, Investments, the Incurrence of Indebtedness and issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds therefrom, the incurrence of Liens and Restricted Payments).
(b)    For the avoidance of doubt, if the Issuer has made an LCT Election:
(1)    if any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would, at any time after the LCT Test Date, have been exceeded or otherwise failed to have been complied with as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA or Total Assets of the Issuer or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction, such baskets, tests or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded or failed to have been complied with as a result of such fluctuations;
(2)    if any related requirements and conditions (including as to the absence of any continuing Default or Event of Default) for which compliance or satisfaction was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would at any time after the LCT Test Date not have been complied with or satisfied (including due to the occurrence or continuation of a Default or Event of Default), such requirements and conditions will not be deemed to have been failed to be complied with or satisfied (and such Default or Event of Default shall be deemed not to have occurred or be continuing); and
(3)    in calculating the availability under any ratio, test or basket in connection with any action or transaction unrelated to such Limited Condition Transaction following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires, as applicable, without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio, test or basket shall be determined or tested giving pro forma effect to such Limited Condition Transaction.

ARTICLE II
THE NOTES
SECTION 2.01.    Amount of Notes.  The initial aggregate principal amount of Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture on the Issue Date is $550,000,000.
The Issuer may from time to time after the Issue Date issue Additional Notes under this Indenture in an unlimited principal amount, so long as (i) the Incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such Additional Notes is at such time permitted by Section 4.03 and (ii) such Additional Notes are issued in compliance with the other applicable provisions of this Indenture.  With respect to any Additional Notes issued after the Issue Date (except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Notes pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 3.08, 4.06(c), 9.04 or Appendix A), there shall be (a) established in or pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer and (b) (i) set forth or determined in the manner provided in an Officers’ Certificate or (ii) established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, prior to the issuance of such Additional Notes:
(1)    the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture;
(2)    the issue price and issuance date of such Additional Notes, including the date from which interest on such Additional Notes shall accrue; and
(3)    if applicable, that such Additional Notes shall be issuable in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Notes and, in such case, the respective depositaries for such Global Notes, the form of any legend or legends which shall be borne by such Global Notes in addition to or in lieu of those set forth in Exhibit A hereto and any circumstances in addition to or in lieu of those set forth in Section 2.2 of Appendix A in which any such Global Note may be exchanged in whole or in part for Additional Notes registered, or any transfer of such Global Note in whole or in part may be registered, in the name or names of Persons other than the depositary for such Global Note or a nominee thereof.
If any of the terms of any Additional Notes are established by action taken pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, a copy of an appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate or an indenture supplemental hereto setting forth the terms of the Additional Notes.
The Initial Notes and any Additional Notes may, at the Issuer’s option, be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase; provided that if the Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP number, if applicable.
SECTION 2.02.    Form and Dating.  Provisions relating to the Initial Notes are set forth in Appendix A, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture.  The (i) Initial Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication and (ii) any Additional Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall each be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture.  The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Issuer).  Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.  The Notes shall be issuable only in registered form without interest coupons and in minimum denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, provided that Notes may be issued in denominations of less than $2,000 solely to accommodate book-entry positions that have been created by the Depository in denominations of less than $2,000.

-32-

SECTION 2.03.    Execution and Authentication.  The Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery upon a written order of the Issuer signed by one Officer of the Issuer (a) Initial Notes for original issue on the date hereof in an aggregate principal amount of $550,000,000 and (b) subject to the terms of this Indenture, Additional Notes in an aggregate principal amount to be determined at the time of issuance and specified therein.  Such order shall specify the amount of separate Note certificates to be authenticated, the principal amount of each of the Notes to be authenticated, the date on which the original issue of Notes is to be authenticated, whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes or Additional Notes, the registered Holder of each of the Notes and delivery instructions.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer will not be required to deliver an Opinion of Counsel with respect to the authentication of the Initial Notes.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or Appendix A, any issuance of Additional Notes after the Issue Date shall be in a principal amount of at least $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
One Officer shall sign the Notes for the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature.
If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Note shall be valid nevertheless.
A Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Note.  The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.
The Trustee may appoint one or more authenticating agents reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the Notes.  Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Issuer.  Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so.  Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent.  An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.
SECTION 2.04.    Registrar and Paying Agent.  
(a)    The Issuer initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.  The Issuer shall maintain (i) an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”) and (ii) an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”).  The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange.  The Issuer may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents.  The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrars.  The term “Paying Agent” includes the Paying Agent and any additional paying agents.  The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar, Paying Agent and the Notes Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.
(b)    The Issuer may enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture.  The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent.  The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any such agent.  If the Issuer fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07.  The Issuer or any of its Domestic Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.
(c)    The Issuer may remove any Registrar or Paying Agent upon five Business Days’ prior written notice to such Registrar or Paying Agent and to the Trustee; provided, however, that no such removal shall become effective until (i) if applicable, acceptance of an appointment by a successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Issuer and such successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee or (ii) notification to the Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as Registrar or Paying Agent until the appointment of a successor in accordance with clause (i) above and shall receive compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07.  The Registrar or Paying Agent may resign at any time upon 

-33-

written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee; provided, however, that the Trustee may resign as Paying Agent or Registrar only if the Trustee also resigns as Trustee in accordance with Section 7.08.
SECTION 2.05.    Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.  Prior to or on each due date of the principal of and interest on any Note, the Issuer shall deposit with each Paying Agent (or if the Issuer or a Subsidiary thereof is acting as Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto) a sum sufficient to pay such principal and interest when so becoming due.  The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that a Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by a Paying Agent for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment.  If the Issuer or a Subsidiary thereof acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto.  The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by such Paying Agent.  Upon complying with this Section 2.05, a Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer, the Trustee will serve as Paying Agent.
SECTION 2.06.    Holder Lists.  The Registrar shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders.  If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish, or cause the Registrar to furnish, to the Trustee, in writing at least five Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders.
SECTION 2.07.    Transfer and Exchange.  The Notes shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Note for registration of transfer and in compliance with Appendix A.  When a Note is presented to the Registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if its requirements therefor are met.  When Notes are presented to the Registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of other denominations, the Registrar shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met.  To permit registration of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Notes at the Registrar’s request.  The Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges in connection with any transfer or exchange pursuant to this Section 2.07.  The Issuer shall not be required to make, and the Registrar need not register, transfers or exchanges of Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of Notes to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed) or of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed.Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest, if any, on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
Any holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall, by acceptance of such beneficial interest, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Note may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by (a) the Holder of such Global Note (or its agent) or (b) any holder of a beneficial interest in such Global Note, and that ownership of a beneficial interest in such Global Note shall be required to be reflected in a book entry.
All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.
The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depository participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence 

-34-

as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.
None of the Trustee, Registrar or Paying Agent shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depository.
SECTION 2.08.    Replacement Notes.  If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met, such that the Holder (a) satisfies any requirement of the Issuer and the Trustee within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar does not register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Issuer and the Trustee prior to the Note being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Issuer and the Trustee.  If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee, with respect to the Trustee, and the Issuer, with respect to the Issuer, to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar, as applicable, from any loss or liability that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced and subsequently presented or claimed for payment.  The Issuer and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Note (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements in replacing such Note).  In the event any such mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may pay such Note instead of issuing a new Note in replacement thereof.
Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer.
The provisions of this Section 2.08 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Notes.
SECTION 2.09.    Outstanding Notes.  Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section 2.09 as not outstanding.  Subject to Section 11.04, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note.
If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08 (other than a mutilated Note surrendered for replacement), it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Issuer receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser.  A mutilated Note ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Note and replacement thereof pursuant to Section 2.08.
If a Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a redemption date or maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that date with respect to the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, and no Paying Agent is prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.
SECTION 2.10.    Cancellation.  The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation.  The Registrar and each Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment.  The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and shall dispose of canceled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures.  The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.  The Trustee shall not authenticate Notes in place of canceled Notes other than pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.
SECTION 2.11.    Defaulted Interest.  If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, the Issuer shall pay the defaulted interest then borne by the Notes (plus interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner.  The Issuer may pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a 

-35-

subsequent special record date.  The Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee and shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to each affected Holder (with a copy to the Trustee) a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid.
SECTION 2.12.    CUSIP Numbers, ISINs, Etc.  The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers (if then generally in use), and the Trustee shall use any such CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers, either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption, that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes and that any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.  The Issuer shall advise the Trustee in writing of any change in any such CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers.
SECTION 2.13.    Calculation of Principal Amount of Notes.  The aggregate principal amount of the Notes, at any date of determination, shall be the principal amount of the Notes at such date of determination.  With respect to any matter requiring consent, waiver, approval or other action of the Holders of a specified percentage of the principal amount of all the Notes, such percentage shall be calculated, on the relevant date of determination, by dividing (a) the principal amount, as of such date of determination, of Notes, the Holders of which have so consented, by (b) the aggregate principal amount, as of such date of determination, of the Notes then outstanding, in each case, as determined in accordance with the preceding sentence, Section 2.09 and Section 11.04 of this Indenture.  Any calculation of the Applicable Premium made pursuant to this Indenture or the Notes shall be made by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate.  The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for any calculation made hereunder or in connection herewith or for any information used in any such calculation.

The Issuer shall give notice to the Holders and the Trustee provided for in this paragraph at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date if the redemption is a redemption pursuant to Paragraph 5 of the Note. Subject to Section 3.05(b), the Issuer may also include a request in such Officers’ Certificate that the Trustee give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at its expense (and select the Notes to be redeemed in the case of a partial redemption) and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in Section 3.05 and the form of such notice.  Any such notice may be canceled if written notice from the Issuer of such cancellation is actually received by the Trustee prior to notice of such redemption being mailed to any Holder or otherwise delivered in accordance with the applicable 

-36-

procedures of the Depository and shall thereby be void and of no effect.  The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee such documentation and records as shall enable the Trustee to select the Notes to be redeemed pursuant to Section 3.04.
SECTION 3.04.    Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed.  If the Issuer is redeeming less than all of the Notes at any time, and the Notes are in global form (“Global Notes”), the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) in accordance with applicable DTC procedures. If such Notes to be redeemed are not Global Notes, the Trustee shall select Notes on a pro rata basis to the extent practicable or by lot.  The Issuer shall redeem Notes of $2,000 or less in whole and not in part.
SECTION 3.05.    Notice of Optional Redemption.
(a)    The Issuer will redeem Notes of $2,000 or less in whole and not in part. The Issuer will cause notices of redemption to be mailed by first-class mail (or with respect to Global Notes, to the extent permitted or required by applicable DTC procedures or regulations, sent electronically) at least 10 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address (with a copy to the Trustee).
Any such notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state:
(1)    the redemption date;
(2)    the redemption price and the amount of accrued interest to the redemption date;
(3)    the name and address of the Paying Agent;
(4)    that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Trustee or Paying Agent to collect the redemption price, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any;

(6)    that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, interest on Notes (or portion thereof) called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;
(7)    the CUSIP number and/or ISIN number, if any, printed on the Notes being redeemed;
(8)    that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number and/or ISIN number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes;
(9)    if the redemption is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the notice thereof shall describe each such condition and, if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded if any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date, or by the redemption date as so delayed; and
(10)    at the Issuer’s option, that the payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.
Notice of any redemption upon any corporate transaction or other event (including any Equity Offering, Incurrence of Indebtedness, Change of Control or other transaction) may be given prior to the completion thereof, and any such redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of a corporate transaction or other event.

-37-

(b)    At the Issuer’s request, the Trustee shall deliver the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at the Issuer’s expense subject to the terms of Section 3.03.  In such event, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee of such request at least three (3) Business Days (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the Trustee) prior to the date such notice is to be provided to Holders.
SECTION 3.06.    Effect of Notice of Redemption.  Once notice of redemption is mailed or otherwise delivered in accordance with Section 3.05, Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice, except as provided in the final paragraph of paragraph 5 of the Notes or Section 3.05(a).  Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Notes shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date; provided, however, that if the redemption date is after a regular Record Date and on or prior to the next Interest Payment Date, the accrued interest shall be payable to the Holder of the redeemed Notes registered on the relevant Record Date.  Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.
SECTION 3.07.    Deposit of Redemption Price.  With respect to any Notes, prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the redemption date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) an amount of money, in immediately available funds, sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed on that date other than Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption that have been delivered by the Issuer to the Trustee for cancellation.  On and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption so long as the Issuer has deposited with the Paying Agent funds sufficient to pay the principal of, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed, unless the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.
SECTION 3.08.    Notes Redeemed in Part.  If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that Note will state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.  The Issuer will issue a Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note in the name of the Holder upon cancellation of the original Note.  Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption.  On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of them called for redemption unless the Issuer defaults in the payment thereof.

An installment of principal of or interest shall be considered paid on the date due if on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, money sufficient to pay all principal and interest then due and the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.
SECTION 4.02.    SEC Reports.
(a)    This Indenture will provide that, so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Issuer shall provide to the Trustee a copy of all of the information and reports referred to below:
(1)    within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations for non-accelerated filers, annual reports of the “Reporting Entity” (as defined in Section 4.02(b)) for such fiscal year containing the information that would have been required to be contained in an annual report on Form 10-K (or any successor or 

-38-

comparable form) if the Reporting Entity had been a reporting company under the Exchange Act, except to the extent permitted to be excluded by the SEC;
(2)    within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations for non-accelerated filers, quarterly reports of the Reporting Entity for such fiscal quarter containing the information that would have been required to be contained in a quarterly report on Form 10-Q (or any successor or comparable form) if the Reporting Entity had been a reporting company under the Exchange Act, except to the extent permitted to be excluded by the SEC; and
(3)    within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations for filing current reports on Form 8-K, current reports of the Reporting Entity containing substantially all of the information that would be required to be filed in a Current Report on Form 8-K under the Exchange Act on the Issue Date pursuant to Sections 1, 2 and 4, Items 5.01 (other than compensation information), 5.03(b) and Item 9.01 (only to the extent relating to any of the foregoing) of Form 8-K if the Reporting Entity had been a reporting company under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that no such current reports will be required to be furnished if the Issuer determines in its good faith judgment that such event is not material to Holders or the business, assets, operations, financial position or prospects of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
In addition to providing such information directly to the Trustee, the Issuer shall make available to the Holders, prospective investors, market makers affiliated with any initial purchaser of the Notes and securities analysts the information required to be provided pursuant to Section 4.02(a)(1)-(3), by posting such information to its website (or the website of any of the Issuer or any of its parent companies, including the Reporting Entity) or on IntraLinks or any comparable online data system or website.
If the Issuer has designated any of its Subsidiaries as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and if any such Unrestricted Subsidiary or group of Unrestricted Subsidiaries, if taken together as one Subsidiary, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer, then the annual and quarterly information required by Section 4.02(a)(1) and (2) will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of such Unrestricted Subsidiaries.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) neither the Issuer nor another Reporting Entity will be required to furnish any information, certificates or reports that would otherwise be required by (i) Section 302 or Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or related Items 307 or 308 of Regulation S-K, or (ii) Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC with respect to any non-generally accepted accounting principles financial measures contained therein, (b) such reports will not be required to contain financial information required by Rule 3-09, Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X or include any exhibits or certifications required by Form 10-K or Form 10-Q (or any successor forms) or related rules under Regulation S-K, and (c) such reports shall be subject to exceptions, exclusions and other differences consistent with the presentation of financial and other information in this offering memorandum and shall not be required to present compensation or beneficial ownership information.
(b)    If at any time the Notes are guaranteed by a direct or indirect parent of the Issuer (any such entity, a “Reporting Entity”) and such company has furnished the financial statements, information and other documents described herein with respect to such company as required by this covenant as if such company were the Issuer (including any financial information required hereby), the Issuer shall be deemed to be in compliance with the provisions of this covenant. Any information filed with, or furnished to, the SEC within the time periods specified in this covenant shall be deemed to have been made available as required by this covenant, and to the extent such filings comply with the rules and regulations of the SEC regarding such filings, they will be deemed to comply with the requirements of this covenant.
In addition, the Issuer shall make such information available to prospective investors upon request. The Issuer has agreed that, for so long as any Notes remain outstanding during any period when neither it nor another Reporting Entity is subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, or otherwise permitted to furnish the SEC with certain information pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b) of the Exchange Act, it will furnish to the Holders and to 

-39-

prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer will be deemed to have furnished such reports and information referred to above to the Holders, prospective investors, market makers and securities analysts if the Issuer or another Reporting Entity has filed such reports with the SEC via the EDGAR filing system (or any successor system) and such reports are publicly available, it being understood that the Trustee shall have no obligation to determine whether such reports have been filed or otherwise made available to the Holders pursuant to the following sentence. In addition, the requirements of this covenant will be deemed satisfied by the posting of reports that would be required to be provided on the Issuer’s website (or that of any of the Issuer’s parent companies, including the Reporting Entity).
Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee under this Indenture is for informational purposes only and the information and the Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute actual or constructive notice of any information contained therein, or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer’s compliance with any of its covenants thereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on an Officers’ Certificate). The Trustee shall have no duty to review or analyze reports delivered to it under any circumstances.
SECTION 4.03.    Limitation on Indebtedness.  
(a)    The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, Incur, directly or indirectly, any Indebtedness; provided, however, that the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries will be entitled to Incur Indebtedness if, on the date of such Incurrence and after giving effect thereto on a pro forma basis the Consolidated Coverage Ratio exceeds 2.00 to 1.00; provided, further, however, that any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor may not Incur Indebtedness under this Section 4.03(a) in excess of an amount, together with any Refinancing Indebtedness thereof pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(6), equal to, after giving pro forma effect to such Incurrence (including pro forma effect to the application of the net proceeds therefrom), the greater of (x) $50.0 million and (y) 2.0% of Total Assets, as determined based on the consolidated balance sheet of the Issuer as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available (plus, in the case of any Refinancing Indebtedness, any additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock Incurred to pay accrued and unpaid interest, premiums (including tender premiums), expenses, defeasance costs and fees in respect of such Refinancing Indebtedness).

(1)    Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to a Credit Agreement; provided, however, that, immediately after giving effect to any such Incurrence, the aggregate principal amount of all Indebtedness Incurred under this clause (1) and then outstanding does not exceed $1,250.0 million;
(2)    Indebtedness owed to and held by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that (A) any subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock that results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any subsequent transfer of such Indebtedness (other than to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute the Incurrence of such Indebtedness by the obligor thereon, (B) if the Issuer is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the obligee of such Indebtedness is not a Guarantor, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations with respect to the Notes, and (C) if a Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the obligee of such Indebtedness is not the Issuer or a Guarantor, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations of such Guarantor with respect to its Note Guarantee;

(6)    Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to Section 4.03(a) or pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(3), (4), (5), (6), (11), (13) or (16);

(c)    For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.03:
(1)    all Indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Agreement on the Issue Date will be treated as Incurred under Section 4.03(b)(1) and may not later be reclassified;
(2)    if an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Section 4.03(a) or clauses (1) through (18) of Section 4.03(a), the Issuer, in its sole discretion, will classify, reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify (as if Incurred at such later time) such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this covenant; and
(3)    at the time of Incurrence, classification or reclassification, the Issuer will be entitled to divide and classify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the categories of Indebtedness described in Section 4.03(a) or Section 4.03(b)(1)-(18) (or any portion thereof) without giving pro forma effect to the Indebtedness Incurred, classified or reclassified pursuant to Section 4.03 (or any portion thereof) when calculating the amount of Indebtedness that may be Incurred, classified or reclassified pursuant to Section 4.03 (or any portion thereof) at such time.
(d)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture, accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the payment of interest or dividends in the form of additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, amortization of original issue discount, the accretion of liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.03. Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness that is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in the determination of such 

-42-

amount of Indebtedness; provided that the Incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such Guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was in compliance with this Section 4.03.
(e)    For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed or first Incurred (whichever yields the lower U.S. dollar equivalent), in the case of revolving credit debt. However, if the Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and the refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of the refinancing, the U.S. dollar-denominated restriction will be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of the refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of the Indebtedness being refinanced.
(f)    The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, will be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which the respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of the refinancing.

(a)    The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, to make a Restricted Payment if at the time the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary makes such Restricted Payment:

(D)    an amount equal to the net reduction in the Investments (other than Permitted Investments) made subsequent to the Issue Date by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in any Person resulting from repurchases, repayments or redemptions of such Investments by such Person, proceeds realized on the sale of such Investment and proceeds representing the return of capital (excluding dividends and distributions), in each case, received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that the foregoing sum shall not exceed, in the case of any such Person, the amount of Investments (excluding Permitted Investments) previously made (and treated as a Restricted Payment) by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Person; plus

(5)    notwithstanding any limitation contained in Section 4.04(b)(4), the purchase, redemption or other acquisition of shares of Capital Stock of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries deemed to occur upon (a) the exercise of stock options, warrants or other securities convertible or exchangeable into shares of such Capital Stock or any other securities, to the extent such shares of Capital Stock or other securities represent a portion of the exercise price of those stock options, warrants or other securities convertible or exchangeable into Capital Stock or any other securities or (b) the withholding of a portion of shares of such Capital Stock issued to employees and other participants under an equity compensation program of the Issuer or its Subsidiaries to cover withholding tax obligations of such persons in respect of such issuance shall be excluded from the calculation of such Restricted Payment;

(2)    at least 75% of the consideration thereof received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or cash equivalents; and
(3)    an amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Cash from such Asset Disposition is applied by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary within 365 days after the Issuer’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s receipt of the proceeds of any Asset Disposition, as the case may be:
(A)    to repay (i) secured Indebtedness (and, if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto), (ii) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, (iii) the Notes or (iv) other Senior Indebtedness (other than secured Indebtedness) (provided that if the Issuer or any Guarantor shall so reduce Obligations under other Senior Indebtedness pursuant to this sub-clause (iv) that does not constitute secured Indebtedness (which does not include Indebtedness described in sub-clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), even if such Indebtedness may also constitute Senior Indebtedness), the Issuer will equally and ratably repurchase the Notes as provided under Article III through open-market purchases (provided that such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Excess Proceeds Offer) to all Holders to purchase a pro rata principal amount of Notes at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any), in each case, other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer;
(B)    to the extent the Issuer elects (including with respect to the balance of such Net Available Cash after application (if any) in accordance with clause (A)), to acquire, or make a capital expenditure in respect of, Additional Assets (or to reimburse the cost of any acquisition of, or capital expenditure in respect of, Additional Assets made after the Asset Disposition was contractually committed), within one year from the later of the date of such Asset Disposition or the receipt of such Net Available Cash; and
(C)    to the extent of the balance of such Net Available Cash after application (if any) in accordance with clauses (A) and (B), to make an offer to the Holders (and to holders of other Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor designated by the Issuer) to purchase Notes (and such other Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor) pursuant to and subject to the conditions contained in this Indenture;

-48-

provided, however, that in connection with any prepayment, repayment or purchase of Indebtedness made to satisfy Section 4.06(a)(3)(A) or (C), the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary shall permanently retire such Indebtedness and shall cause the related loan commitment (if any) to be permanently reduced in an amount equal to the principal amount so prepaid, repaid or purchased.
In the case of Section 4.06(a)(3)(B), a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Available Cash from the date of such commitment until the 18-month anniversary of the date of the receipt of such Net Available Cash.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.06, (A) the 75% limitation referred to in Section 4.06(a)(2) shall be deemed satisfied with respect to any Asset Disposition in which the cash or cash equivalents portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with the foregoing provision, is equal to or greater than what the after-tax proceeds would have been had such Asset Disposition complied with the aforementioned 75% limitation and (B) the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries will not be required to apply any Net Available Cash in accordance with this covenant except to the extent that the aggregate Net Available Cash from all Asset Dispositions that is not applied in accordance with this covenant (the “Excess Proceeds”) exceeds $50.0 million. Pending application of Net Available Cash pursuant to this covenant, such Net Available Cash may be applied to temporarily reduce revolving credit indebtedness or in any other manner not prohibited by this Indenture.
For the purposes of this Section 4.06, the following are deemed to be cash or cash equivalents:
(1)    the assumption or discharge of any liabilities (as shown on the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto) of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary (other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and the Note Guarantees) that are assumed by the transferee of such assets or that are otherwise cancelled or terminated in connection with the transaction with such transferee;
(2)    securities or other obligations or assets received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary within 180 days into cash, to the extent of cash received in that conversion;
(3)    all Temporary Cash Investments;
(4)    Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such Asset Disposition, to the extent that the Issuer and each other Restricted Subsidiary are released from any Guarantee of payment of such Indebtedness in connection with the Asset Disposition;
(5)    consideration consisting of Indebtedness of the Issuer (other than Subordinated Indebtedness) received after the Issue Date from Persons who are not the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary; and
(6)    any Designated Noncash Consideration having an aggregate Fair Market Value that, when taken together with all other Designated Noncash Consideration previously received and then outstanding, does not exceed at the time of the receipt of such Designated Noncash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Noncash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value) $35.0 million.
(b)    In the event of an Asset Disposition that requires the purchase of Notes (and other Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor) pursuant to Section 4.06(a)(3)(C), the Issuer shall purchase Notes tendered pursuant to an offer (an “Excess Proceeds Offer”) by the Issuer for the Notes (and such other Senior Indebtedness) at a purchase price of 100% of their principal amount (or, in the event such other Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Guarantor was issued with a significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof) without premium, plus accrued but unpaid interest (or, in respect of such other Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Guarantor, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided for by the terms of such Senior Indebtedness) in accordance with the procedures (including prorating in the event of oversubscription) set forth in this Indenture. If 

-49-

the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Guarantor tendered exceeds the Net Available Cash allotted to their purchase, the Issuer shall select the Notes and such other Senior Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of the Notes or such other Senior Indebtedness but in round denominations, which in the case of the Notes will be denominations of $2,000 principal amount or any greater integral multiple of $1,000, and in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the applicable DTC procedures. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and other Senior Indebtedness so tendered pursuant to an Excess Proceeds Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to the other covenants contained in this Indenture. The Issuer shall not be required to make such an offer to purchase Notes (and other Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Guarantor) pursuant to this covenant if the Net Available Cash available therefor is less than $25.0 million (which lesser amount shall be carried forward for purposes of determining whether such an offer is required with respect to the Net Available Cash from any subsequent Asset Disposition). Upon completion of an Excess Proceeds Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.
(c)    The Issuer shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section 4.06. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 4.06, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.06 by virtue of its compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

(1)    the material terms of the Affiliate Transaction are no less favorable to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that could be obtained at the time of the Affiliate Transaction in arm’s-length dealings with a Person who is not an Affiliate; and
(2)    if such Affiliate Transaction involves an amount in excess of $25.0 million, the terms of the Affiliate Transaction are set forth in writing and a majority of the non-employee directors of the Issuer disinterested with respect to such Affiliate Transaction have determined in good faith that the criteria set forth in clause (1) are satisfied.
(b)    The provisions of the Section 4.07(a) shall not prohibit:
(1)    any Investment or other Restricted Payment, in each case, permitted to be made pursuant to Section 4.04;
(2)    any employment or consulting agreement, employee benefit plan, severance agreement, officer or director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by the Issuer, any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, including any reasonable and customary fees and reimbursements of expenses to be paid thereunder;
(3)    loans or advances (or cancellation of loans or advances) to officers, directors, employees or consultants in the ordinary course of business of the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiaries;
(4)    the payment of reasonable fees or other reasonable compensation to, or the provision of customary benefits or indemnification arrangements to, directors of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries;

(6)    the issuance or sale of any Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer;
(7)    any agreement as in effect on the Issue Date or any renewals or extensions of any such agreement (so long as such renewals or extensions are not less favorable in any material respect to the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiaries) and the transactions evidenced thereby;
(8)    the provision of services to directors or officers of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries of the nature provided by the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to customers in the ordinary course of business;
(9)    any transaction or transactions pursuant to any Qualified Receivables Transaction;
(10)    any transaction entered into by a Person prior to the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or is merged into, amalgamated with or consolidated into the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary (provided that such transaction is not entered into in contemplation of such event);
(11)    any transaction with the Issuer’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s customers, clients, suppliers, landlords, lessors, or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case, in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture that are fair to the Issuer, or are on terms at least as favorable as would reasonably have been entered into at such time with a Person who is not an Affiliate of the Issuer (as determined in good faith by the Issuer);
(12)    payment or reimbursement of fees and expenses of the Issuer and any of its shareholders in connection with any registration of the Capital Stock of the Issuer pursuant to registration rights agreements or as otherwise approved by the Board of Directors of the Issuer in an amount not to exceed $5.0 million in any fiscal year;
(13)    transactions in which the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustee a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of Section 4.07(a)(1); and
(14)    any merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Issuer with an Affiliate, solely for the purposes of (x) forming a holding company or (y) reincorporating the Issuer in a new jurisdiction.

(a)    Upon the occurrence a Change of Control, each Holder shall have the right to require that the Issuer repurchase such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof on the date of purchase plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to (but excluding) the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), except to the extent the Issuer has previously or concurrently elected to redeem Notes as described under Article III:
(b)    Prior to (in compliance with Section 4.08(c)) or within 30 days following any Change of Control, except to the extent that the Issuer has exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes as described under Section 3.05, the Issuer will mail (or with respect to Global Notes, to the extent permitted or required by applicable DTC procedures or regulations, send electronically) a notice to each Holder with a copy to the Trustee (the “Change of Control Offer”) stating:
(1)    that a Change of Control has occurred or may occur and that such Holder has, or upon such occurrence will have, the right to require the Issuer to purchase such Holder’s Notes at a purchase 

-51-

price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof on the date of purchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to (but excluding) the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date);
(2)    the circumstances and relevant facts regarding such Change of Control;
(3)    the purchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent, except that such notice may be given more than 60 days prior to the purchase date if the purchase date is delayed as provided in Section 4.08(b)(4);
(4)    if such notice is delivered prior to (in compliance with Section 4.08(c)) the occurrence of a Change of Control, stating that the Change of Control Offer is conditional on the occurrence of such Change of Control and that the Change of Control payment date may, in the Issuer’s discretion, be extended and delayed until such time as the Change of Control has occurred; and
(5)    the instructions, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Section 4.08, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Notes purchased.
(c)    Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.08, the Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. In addition, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, and conditioned upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer.
(d)    If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Issuer, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Issuer as described above, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer or such third party shall have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice to the Holders and the Trustee, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption.
(e)    Notes repurchased by the Issuer pursuant to a Change of Control Offer shall have the status of Notes issued but not outstanding or will be retired and canceled at the option of the Issuer. Notes purchased by a third party pursuant to this Section 4.08 will have the status of Notes issued and outstanding.
(f)    At the time the Issuer delivers Notes to the Trustee which are to be accepted for purchase, the Issuer shall also deliver an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes are to be accepted by the Issuer pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.08.  A Note shall be deemed to have been accepted for purchase at the time the Trustee, directly or through an agent, mails or delivers payment therefor to the surrendering Holder.
(g)    The Issuer shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.08, we will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached our obligations under this Section 4.08 by virtue of our compliance with such securities laws or regulations.
(h)    The provisions in this Indenture relative to the Issuer’s obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Notes issued thereunder as a result of a Change of Control may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes.

-52-

SECTION 4.09.    Limitation on Liens.
(a)    The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, Incur or permit to exist any Lien (the “Initial Lien”) of any nature whatsoever on any of its Property (including Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary), whether owned at the Issue Date or thereafter acquired, securing any Indebtedness other than Permitted Liens, without effectively providing that the Notes shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) the obligations so secured for so long as such obligations are so secured.
(b)    Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to the preceding sentence shall provide by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Initial Lien.
(c)    For purposes of determining compliance with Section 4.09, (i) a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness need not be permitted solely by reference to one category of permitted Liens (or any portion thereof) described in the definition of “Permitted Liens” or pursuant to Section 4.09(a) but may be permitted in part under any combination thereof and (B) if a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of the categories of permitted Liens (or any portion thereof) described in the definition of “Permitted Liens” or pursuant to Section 4.09(a), the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify (as if Incurred at such later time), such Lien securing such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this covenant and will be entitled to only include the amount and type of such Lien or such item of Indebtedness secured by such Lien (or any portion thereof) in one of the categories (or any portion thereof) described in the definition of “Permitted Liens” or pursuant to Section 4.09(a) and, in such event, such Lien securing such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) will be treated as being Incurred or existing pursuant to only such clause or clauses (or any portion thereof) or pursuant to Section 4.09(a) without giving pro forma effect to such item (or portion thereof) when calculating the amount of Liens or Indebtedness that may be Incurred pursuant to any other clause or paragraph.
(d)    With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the Incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms or in the form of common stock of the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer, the payment of dividends on Preferred Stock in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock of the same class and accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference.
SECTION 4.10.    Compliance Certificate.  The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Issuer, beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019, an Officers’ Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Issuer during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether any Default has occurred during such period and further stating whether or not the signer knows of any Default that occurred during such period.  If such Officer does, the certificate shall describe the Default, its status and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.  Except with respect to receipt of payments of principal and interest on the Notes and any Default or Event of Default information contained in the Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee pursuant to this Section 4.10, the Trustee shall have no duty to review, ascertain or confirm the Issuer’s compliance with or the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made in this Indenture.
SECTION 4.11.    Future Guarantors.  The Issuer shall cause each Restricted Subsidiary that is a Domestic Subsidiary and that Guarantees any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor in respect of the Credit Agreement or Capital Markets Indebtedness (or Incurs any such Indebtedness) to execute and deliver to the Trustee a Note Guarantee pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary will Guarantee payment of the Notes on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in this Indenture.

-53-

Each Guarantee by a Guarantor is intended to be limited to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by that Restricted Subsidiary without rendering such Guarantee, as it relates to such Restricted Subsidiary, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.
SECTION 4.12.    Further Instruments and Acts.  Upon request of the Trustee, the Issuer shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.
SECTION 4.13.    Maintenance of Office or Agency.  
(a)    The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee or Registrar) where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange.  The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency.  If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations and surrenders may be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as set forth in Section 11.01.
(b)    The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Issuer of its obligation to maintain an office or agency for such purposes.  The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.
(c)    The Issuer hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or its agent as such office or agency of the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.04.
SECTION 4.14.    Covenant Suspension.  During any period of time that (i) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension Event” and the date thereof being referred to as the “Suspension Date”) then Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07 and 5.01(a)(3) (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”) shall not be applicable to the Notes.
During the Suspension Period, the Issuer shall not designate any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the second sentence of the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.”
In the event that the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Indenture for any period of time as a result of the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension Event, and on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”) one or both of the Rating Agencies withdraw their Investment Grade Rating or downgrade the rating assigned to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating, then the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Indenture with respect to future events. The period of time between the Suspension Date and the Reversion Date is referred to as the “Suspension Period.”
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such reinstatement occurs, no action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries prior to such reinstatement will give rise to a Default or Event of Default under this Indenture with respect to the Notes; provided that (1) with respect to Restricted Payments made after such reinstatement, the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments will be calculated as though Section 4.04 had been in effect prior to, but not during, the Suspension Period and, accordingly, Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period will not reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under clauses (a) and (b) of Section 4.04; (2) all Indebtedness Incurred, or Disqualified Stock issued, during the Suspension Period will be classified to have been Incurred or issued pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(4); (3) all Liens created during the Suspension Period will be classified to have been Incurred pursuant to clause (8) of the definition of “Permitted Liens”; and (4) any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a 

-54-

Guarantor to take any action described in Section 4.05(a)-(c) that becomes effective during any Suspension Period shall be deemed to be permitted pursuant to Section 4.05(1)(A). For purposes of determining compliance with Section 4.06 on the Reversion Date, the Net Available Cash from Asset Dispositions not applied in accordance with Section 4.06 will be deemed reset at zero. The Issuer will provide written notice to the Trustee and the Holders of the occurrence of any Suspension Period or Reversion Date.
The Trustee shall have no duty to monitor the ratings of the Notes, shall not be deemed to have any knowledge of the ratings of the Notes and shall have no duty to notify Holders if the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies or of the occurrence of a Reversion Date.
There can be no assurance that the Notes will ever achieve or maintain Investment Grade Ratings.

SECTION 5.01.    When Issuer May Merge or Transfer Assets.
(a)    The Issuer shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all its assets to, any Person, unless:
(1)    the Issuer is the surviving or continuing Person or the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Company”) shall be a Person organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia and the Successor Company (if not the Issuer) shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental thereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes and this Indenture;
(2)    immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the Successor Company or any Subsidiary as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by such Successor Company or such Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
(3)    immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction, (A) the Successor Company would be able to Incur an additional $1.00 of Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(a) or (B) the Consolidated Coverage Ratio for the Successor Company would be equal to or greater than such ratio for the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries immediately prior to such transaction; and
(4)    the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such supplemental indenture (if any) is a legal and binding agreement enforceable against the Successor Company; provided that in giving an Opinion of Counsel, counsel may rely on an Officers’ Certificate as to any matters of fact, including as to satisfaction of Section 5.01(a)(2) and (3);
provided, however, that Section 5.01(a)(2) and (3) shall not be applicable to (A) the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary consolidating with, merging into or transferring all or part of its Property to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, (B) the Issuer merging, consolidating or amalgamating with an Affiliate of the Issuer incorporated solely for the purpose of reincorporating or reorganizing the Issuer in another jurisdiction, (C) the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary converting into a corporation, partnership or limited liability company, so long as the amount of Indebtedness of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby, or (D) any merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Issuer with an Affiliate, solely for the purposes of forming a holding company.

-55-

For purposes of this covenant, the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Property of one or more Subsidiaries of the Issuer, which, if held by the Issuer instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the Property of the Issuer on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the Property of the Issuer.
The Successor Company shall be the successor to the Issuer and shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Issuer under this Indenture, and the predecessor Issuer shall be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes.
(b)    In addition, the Issuer shall not permit any Guarantor to consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all its assets to, any Person (other than the Issuer or another Guarantor), unless:
(1)     (a) such Guarantor is the surviving or continuing Person or the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Guarantor”) shall be a Person organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof, the District of Columbia or the same jurisdiction as such Guarantor and the Successor Guarantor (if not the Issuer or another Guarantor) shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental thereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee and this Indenture, (b) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the Successor Guarantor or any Subsidiary as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by such Successor Guarantor or such Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (c) the transaction is made in compliance with the covenants described under Section 4.11; or
(2)    such merger, conveyance, transfer or lease is not in violation of Section 4.06.

(c)    Any reference herein to a merger, consolidation, amalgamation, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar term, shall be deemed to apply to a division of or by a limited liability company, limited partnership or trust, or an allocation of assets to a series of a limited liability company, limited partnership or trust (or the unwinding of such a division or allocation), as if it were a merger, consolidation, amalgamation, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar term, as applicable, to, of or with a separate Person.  Any division of a limited liability company, limited partnership or trust shall constitute a separate Person hereunder and each division of any limited liability company, limited partnership or trust that is a Subsidiary, Restricted Subsidiary, Unrestricted Subsidiary, joint venture or any other like term shall also constitute such a Person or entity.
                          
 
ARTICLE VI
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
SECTION 6.01.    Events of Default. An Event of Default occurs with respect to the Notes if:
(1)    there is default in the payment of interest on the Notes when due, continued for 30 days;

-56-

(2)    the Issuer (A) defaults in the payment of principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Note when due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise or (B) fails to purchase Notes when required pursuant to this Indenture or the Notes;
(3)    there is a failure by the Issuer or any Guarantor to comply with its obligations under Section 5.01;

(5)    Indebtedness of the Issuer, any Guarantor or any Significant Subsidiary is not paid within any applicable grace period after final maturity or is accelerated by the holders thereof because of a default and the total amount of such Indebtedness unpaid or accelerated exceeds $50.0 million (the “cross acceleration provision”);
(6)    The Issuer, a Guarantor or any Significant Subsidiary (or any group of Subsidiaries that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:
(i)    commences a voluntary case
(ii)    consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case;
(iii)    consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for any substantial part of its property; or
(iv)    makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors or takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to insolvency
(7)    a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:
(i)    is for relief against the Issuer, a Guarantor or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;
(ii)    appoints a Custodian of the Issuer, a Guarantor or any Significant Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property; or
(iii)    orders the winding up or liquidation of the Issuer, a Guarantor or any Significant Subsidiary;

(8)    any judgment or decree for the payment of money in excess of $50.0 million is entered against the Issuer, a Guarantor or any Significant Subsidiary, remains outstanding for a period of 60 consecutive days following such judgment and is not discharged, waived or effectively stayed (the “judgment default provision”); or
(9)    a Note Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with the terms of such Note Guarantee) or a Guarantor that qualifies as a Significant Subsidiary denies or disaffirms its obligations under its Note Guarantee and such Default occurs for 10 days.

-57-

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in Section 6.01(6)) occurs and is continuing, up to two years following the first public notice (it being agreed that such public notice shall not be deemed to be notice to the Trustee under this Indenture) or notice to the Trustee of such event, the Trustee by notice in writing specifying the Event of Default and that it is a “notice” to the Issuer, or the holders of at least 35% in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes by notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable; provided that a notice of Default may not be given with respect to any action taken, and reported publicly or to Holders, more than two years prior to such notice of Default.
Any notice of Default, notice of acceleration or instruction to the Trustee to provide a notice of Default, notice of acceleration or take any other action (a “Noteholder Direction”) provided by any one or more Holders (other than a Regulated Bank) (each a “Directing Holder”) must be accompanied by a written representation from each such Holder delivered to the Issuer and the Trustee that such Holder is not (or, in the case such Holder is DTC or its nominee, that such Holder is being instructed solely by beneficial owners that are not) Net Short (a “Position Representation”), which representation, in the case of a Noteholder Direction relating to the delivery of a notice of Default shall be deemed a continuing representation until the resulting Event of Default is cured or otherwise ceases to exist or the Notes are accelerated. In addition, each Directing Holder is deemed, at the time of providing a Noteholder Direction, to covenant to provide the Issuer with such other information as the Issuer may reasonably request from time to time in order to verify the accuracy of such noteholder’s Position Representation within five Business Days of request therefor (a “Verification Covenant”). In any case in which the Holder is DTC or its nominee, any Position Representation or Verification Covenant required hereunder shall be provided by the beneficial owner of the Notes in lieu of DTC or its nominee, and DTC shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such Position Representation and Verification Covenant in delivering its direction to the Trustee.
If, following the delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the Notes, the Issuer determines in good faith that there is a reasonable basis to believe a Directing Holder was, at any relevant time, in breach of its Position Representation and provides to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the Issuer has initiated litigation in a court of competent jurisdiction seeking a determination that such Directing Holder was, at such time, in breach of its Position Representation, and seeking to invalidate any Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction, the cure period with respect to such Default shall be automatically stayed and the cure period with respect to such Event of Default shall be automatically reinstituted and any remedy stayed pending a final and non-appealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction on such matter. If, following the delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the Notes, the Issuer provides to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that a Directing Holder failed to satisfy its Verification Covenant, the cure period with respect to such Default shall be automatically stayed and the cure period with respect to any Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction shall be automatically reinstituted and any remedy stayed pending satisfaction of such Verification Covenant. Any breach of the Position Representation shall result in such Holder’s participation in such Noteholder Direction being disregarded; and, if, without the participation of such Holder, the percentage of Notes held by the remaining Holders that provided such Noteholder Direction would have been insufficient to validly provide such Noteholder Direction, such Noteholder Direction shall be void ab initio, with the effect that such Event of Default shall be deemed never to have occurred, acceleration voided and the Trustee shall be deemed not to have received such Noteholder Direction or any notice of such Default or Event of Default.
Notwithstanding anything in the preceding two paragraphs to the contrary, any Noteholder Direction delivered to the Trustee during the pendency of an Event of Default as the result of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall not require compliance with the foregoing paragraphs. In addition, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing paragraphs shall not apply to any Holder that is a Regulated Bank.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any Noteholder Direction delivered to it in accordance with this Indenture, shall have no duty to inquire as to or investigate the accuracy of any Position Representation, enforce compliance with any Verification Covenant, verify any statements in any Officers’ Certificate delivered to it, or otherwise make calculations, investigations or determinations with respect to Derivative Instruments, Net Shorts, Long Derivative Instruments, Short Derivative Instruments or otherwise. The 

-58-

Trustee shall have no liability to the Issuer, any Holder or any other Person in acting in good faith on a Noteholder Direction.
SECTION 6.02.    Acceleration.  If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(6) or (7) with respect to the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Issuer or the Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by notice to the Issuer (with a copy to the Trustee) may declare the principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Notes to be due and payable.  Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately.  If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(6) or (7) with respect to the Issuer occurs and is continuing, the principal of and interest on all the outstanding Notes will ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders.  The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences if the Event of Default giving rise to such acceleration has been cured or waived.
SECTION 6.03.    Other Remedies.  If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.
The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding.  A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default.  No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy.  To the extent required by law, all available remedies are cumulative.
SECTION 6.04.    Waiver of Past Defaults.  Provided the Notes are not then due and payable by reason of a declaration of acceleration, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Trustee may waive an existing Default and its consequences except (a) a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a Note (other than principal or interest that has become due solely because of acceleration), (b) a Default arising from the failure to redeem or purchase any Note when required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or (c) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected.  When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured and the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders will be restored to their former positions and rights under this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right.
SECTION 6.05.    Control by Majority.  The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes.  The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee has no duty to determine whether any action is prejudicial to any Holder) or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification and/or security satisfactory to it against all losses, liabilities and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.
SECTION 6.06.    Limitation on Suits.  
(a)    Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:
(1)    such Holder has previously given the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing;
(2)    Holders of at least 35% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

-59-

(3)    such Holders have offered, and if requested, provided, the Trustee security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense, satisfactory to the Trustee in its sole discretion;
(4)    the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt thereof and the offer of security or indemnity; and
(5)    Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.
(b)    A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder.
SECTION 6.07.    Contractual Rights of the Holders to Receive Payment.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the contractual right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on the Note held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates thereof, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.
SECTION 6.08.    Collection Suit by Trustee.  If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding related thereto, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer or any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on overdue principal and (to the extent lawful) on any unpaid interest at the rate provided for in the Notes) and any amount due hereunder and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the actual, documented and reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.
SECTION 6.09.    Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.  The Trustee may file such proofs of claim, statements of interest and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation, expenses disbursements and advances of the Trustee (including counsel, accountants, experts or such other professionals as the Trustee deems necessary, advisable or appropriate)) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, the Guarantors, their creditors or their property, shall be entitled to participate as a member, voting or otherwise, of any official committee of creditors appointed in such matters and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee hereunder.  Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.
SECTION 6.10.    Priorities.  Any money or property collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article VI and any other money or property distributable in respect of the Issuer’s or any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture after an Event of Default shall be applied in the following order:
FIRST:  to the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) for amounts due hereunder;
SECOND:  to the Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest, respectively; and
THIRD:  to the Issuer or, to the extent the Trustee collects any amount for any Guarantor, to such Guarantor.

-60-

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to the Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10.  At least 15 days before such record date, the Trustee shall deliver to each Holder and the Issuer a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be paid.
SECTION 6.11.    Undertaking for Costs.  In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant.  This Article VI does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Notes.
SECTION 6.12.    Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.  Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer and the Guarantors (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.
 
 
ARTICLE VII
TRUSTEE
SECTION 7.01.    Duties of Trustee.  
(a)    The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Notes and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture.  If an Event of Default occurs (and is not cured or waived) and is actually known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee will be required, in the exercise of its rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, to use the degree of care of a prudent person in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.
(b)    Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:
(1)    The duties of the Trustee will be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee (it being agreed that the permissive right of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty); and
(2)    the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture.  The Trustee shall be under no duty to make any investigation as to any statement contained in any such instance, but may accept the same as conclusive evidence of the truth and accuracy of such statement or the correctness of such opinions.  However, in the case of certificates or opinions required by any provision hereof to be provided to it, the Trustee shall examine the form of certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).
(c)    The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

-61-

(1)    this clause (c) does not limit the effect of clause (b) of this Section 7.01;
(2)    the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;
(3)    the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it hereunder; and
(4)    no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise Incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers.
(d)    Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to clauses (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 7.01.
(e)    The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer.
(f)    Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.
(g)    Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 7.01.
SECTION 7.02.    Rights of Trustee.  
(a)    The Trustee may conclusively rely on and be protected in acting or refraining to act based on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person.  The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.
(b)    Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both.  The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.
(c)    The Trustee may act through agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care.
(d)    The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers; provided, however, that the Trustee’s conduct does not constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable order.
(e)    The Trustee may consult with counsel of its own selection and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Notes shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.
(f)    The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, debenture, note or other paper or document unless requested in writing to do so by the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer, 

-62-

personally or by agent or attorney, at the expense of the Issuer and shall Incur no liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.
(g)    The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the written request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless, subject to the terms hereof, such Holders shall have offered, and if requested, provided, to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee, in its sole discretion, against any loss, liability or expense which might be Incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.
(h)    The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith at the direction of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Notes as to the time, method and place of conducting any proceedings for any remedy available to the Trustee or the exercising of any power conferred by this Indenture.
(i)    Any action taken, or omitted to be taken, by the Trustee in good faith pursuant to this Indenture upon the request or authority or consent of any person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the Holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding upon future Holders of Notes and upon Notes executed and delivered in exchange therefor or in place thereof.
(j)    Except with respect to Section 4.01, the Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the Issuer with respect to the covenants contained in Article IV.  The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Trust Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture.
(k)    The Trustee may request that the Issuer delivers an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officers’ Certificate may be signed by any Person authorized to sign an Officers’ Certificate, including any Person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.
(l)    The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for punitive, special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of actions.
(m)    The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the execution of the trusts and powers under this Indenture.
(n)    The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Indenture arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God; earthquakes; fire; flood; terrorism; wars and other military disturbances; sabotage; epidemics; riots; interruptions; loss or malfunction of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communication services; accidents; labor disputes; and acts of civil or military authorities and governmental action.
SECTION 7.03.    Individual Rights of Trustee.  The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.  Any Paying Agent or Registrar may do the same with like rights.  However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11.
SECTION 7.04.    Trustee’s Disclaimer.  The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, the Note Guarantees or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Issuer or any Guarantor in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication.  The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of 

-63-

any Default or Event of Default under Sections 6.01(3), (4), (5), (6), (7), (8) or (9), or of the identity of any Significant Subsidiary unless either (a) a Trust Officer shall have actual knowledge thereof or (b) the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof in accordance with Section 11.01 from the Issuer, any Guarantor or any Holder.  In accepting the trust hereby created, the Trustee acts solely as Trustee under this Indenture and not in its individual capacity and all persons, including without limitation the Holders and the Issuer having any claim against the Trustee arising from this Indenture shall look only to the funds and accounts held by the Trustee hereunder for payment except as otherwise provided herein.
SECTION 7.05.    Notice of Defaults.  If a Default occurs, is continuing and the Trustee, is informed of such occurrence by the Issuer, the Trustee must mail (or with respect to Global Notes, to the extent permitted or required by applicable DTC procedures or regulations, send electronically) to each Holder notice of such Default within 90 days after it is notified by the Issuer.  Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold notice if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the Holders.  In addition, the Issuer is required to deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a certificate indicating whether the signers thereof know of any Default that occurred during the previous year.  The Issuer is required to deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice of any event that would constitute certain Defaults, their status and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take in respect thereof.  The Trustee will not be deemed to have knowledge of any Defaults or Events of Default unless written notice of an event, which is in fact a Default, has been delivered to the Trustee at its office specified in this Indenture and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture and states that it is a “notice of default.”
SECTION 7.06.    [Reserved].  
SECTION 7.07.    Compensation and Indemnity.  The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) from time to time compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and its services hereunder.  The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust.  The Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses Incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services.  Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts.  The Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) or any predecessor Trustee and their directors, officers, employees and agents against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and including taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee)) Incurred by or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture or any Note Guarantee against the Issuer or any Guarantor (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against or investigating any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer, any Guarantor, any Holder or any other Person).  The obligation to pay such amounts shall survive the payment in full or defeasance of the Notes or the removal or resignation of the Trustee.  The Trustee shall notify the Issuer of any claim for which it may seek indemnity promptly upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof; provided, however, that any failure so to notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer or any Guarantor of its indemnity obligations hereunder.  The Issuer shall defend the claim and the indemnified party shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Issuer’s expense in the defense.  Such indemnified parties may have separate counsel and the Issuer and such Guarantor, as applicable, shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to pay such fees and expenses if it assumes such indemnified parties’ defense and, in such indemnified parties’ reasonable judgment, there is no actual or potential conflict of interest between the Issuer and the Guarantors, as applicable, and such parties in connection with such defense.  The Issuer need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense Incurred by an indemnified party through such party’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.
To secure the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations under this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee, other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Notes.

-64-

The Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations pursuant to this Indenture and the Trustee’s Lien provided in this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction or discharge of this Indenture, any rejection or termination of this Indenture under any Bankruptcy Law or the resignation or removal of the Trustee.  Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee Incurs expenses or renders services after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(6) or (7) with respect to the Issuer, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law.
No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee 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 repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured to its satisfaction, in its sole discretion.
SECTION 7.08.    Replacement of Trustee.  
(a)    The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer in writing at least 30 days in advance of such resignation and be discharged upon such resignation from the trust created hereby by so notifying the Issuer.  The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee.  The Issuer may upon five Business Days’ notice remove the Trustee if:
(1)    the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10;
(2)    the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;
(3)    a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or
(4)    the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.
(b)    If the Trustee resigns, is removed by the Issuer or by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.
(c)    A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer.  Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture.  The successor Trustee shall mail, or otherwise deliver in accordance with the procedures of the Depository, a notice of its succession to the Holders.  The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, provided that all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided in Section 7.07.  The retiring (or removed) Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for the actions or inaction of any successor Trustee.
(d)    If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Notes may petition at the expense of the Issuer any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.
(e)    If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, unless the Trustee’s duty to resign is stayed as provided in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.
(f)    Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuer’s obligations under this Article VII shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

-65-

SECTION 7.09.    Successor Trustee by Merger.  If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or banking association without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.
In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have.
SECTION 7.10.    Eligibility; Disqualification.  The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of Section 310(a) of the Trust Indenture Act.  The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $100 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.  The Trustee shall comply with Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, subject to its right to apply for a stay of its duty to resign under the penultimate paragraph of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act; provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of Section 310(b)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act any series of securities issued under this Indenture and any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Issuer are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in Section 310(b)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act are met.
SECTION 7.11.    Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Issuer.  The Trustee shall comply with Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, excluding any creditor relationship listed in Section 311(b) of the Trust Indenture Act.  A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent indicated.
 
 
ARTICLE VIII
DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE
SECTION 8.01.    Discharge of Liability on Notes; Defeasance.
(a)    This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect (except as to surviving rights and immunities of the Trustee) as to all outstanding Notes when:
(1)    either (a) all the Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from such trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or (b) all of the Notes (i) have become due and payable, (ii) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year or (iii) if redeemable at the option of the Issuer, are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer, and the Issuer has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee funds in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to the date of deposit together with irrevocable instructions from the Issuer directing the Trustee to apply such funds to the payment thereof at maturity or redemption, as the case may be; provided that upon any redemption that requires the payment of the Applicable Premium, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Indenture to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to the Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any deficit as of the date of the redemption only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the date of the redemption; and

-66-

(2)    the Issuer and/or the Guarantors have paid all other sums payable under this Indenture.
Upon completion of the foregoing, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent under this Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with.
(b)    Subject to Sections 8.01(c) and 8.02, (1) at any time, the Issuer may, at its option, elect to have the obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors under the Notes, the Note Guarantees and this Indenture terminate (“legal defeasance”), except for certain obligations, including those respecting the defeasance trust and obligations to register the transfer or exchange of the Notes, to replace mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and to maintain a registrar and paying agent in respect of the Notes.
In addition, the Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to have its obligations and those of the Guarantors released with respect to obligations under Section 4.08 and under the covenants described under Section 4, the operation of the cross acceleration provision, the bankruptcy provisions with respect to Guarantors and Significant Subsidiaries and the judgment default provision described under Section 6.01 and the limitations contained under Section 5.01(a)(3) (“covenant defeasance”).
The Issuer may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option. If the Issuer exercises its legal defeasance option with respect to the Notes, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with respect thereto. If the Issuer exercises its covenant defeasance option with respect to the Notes, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in clause (1), (5), (6) (with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries and Guarantors) or (7) under Section 6.01 or because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with Section 5.01(a)(3). If the Issuer exercises its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option with respect to the Notes, each Guarantor under this Indenture shall be released from all of its obligations with respect to its Note Guarantee in respect of the Notes.
In order to exercise either of the defeasance options with respect to the Notes, the Issuer must irrevocably deposit in trust (the “defeasance trust”) with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be, and must comply with certain other conditions, including delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the beneficial owners of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred (and, in the case of legal defeasance only, such Opinion of Counsel must be based on a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service or other change in applicable federal income tax law); provided, that upon any redemption that requires the payment of the Applicable Premium, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Indenture to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to the Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any deficit as of the date of the redemption only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the date of the redemption.
Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Issuer, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that the Issuer terminates.
(c)    Notwithstanding Section 8.01(a) and (b), the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08 and 2.09 and Article VII, including, without limitation, Sections 7.07 and 7.08 and in this Article VIII and the rights and immunities of the Trustee under this Indenture shall survive until the Notes have been paid in full.  Thereafter, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 7.07, 7.08, 8.05 and 8.06 and the rights and immunities of the Trustee under this Indenture shall survive such satisfaction and discharge.
SECTION 8.02.    Conditions to Defeasance.  The Issuer may exercise its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option only if:

-67-

(1)    the Issuer irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee cash in U.S. Dollars, U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof sufficient to pay the principal of and premium (if any) and interest on the Notes when due at maturity or redemption, as the case may be;
(2)    the Issuer delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally recognized firm of independent accountants expressing their opinion that the payments of principal and interest when due and without reinvestment on the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus any deposited money without investment will provide cash at such times and in such amounts as will be sufficient to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest when due on all the Notes to maturity or redemption, as the case may be;
(3)    no Default specified in Section 6.01(6) or (7) with respect to the Issuer shall have occurred or is continuing on the date of such deposit;
(4)    the deposit does not constitute a default under any other material agreement or instrument binding on the Issuer;
(5)    in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (1) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (2) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred; provided that upon any redemption that requires the payment of the Applicable Premium, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Indenture to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to the Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any deficit as of the date of the redemption only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the date of the redemption.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Opinion of Counsel required by the immediately preceding sentence with respect to a legal defeasance need not be delivered if all of the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (x) have become due and payable or (y) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer;
(6)    such exercise does not impair the contractual right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates thereof or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes;
(7)    in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred; and
(8)    the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the Notes to be so defeased and discharged as contemplated by this Article VIII have been complied with.
Before or after a deposit, the Issuer may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of such Notes at a future date in accordance with Article III.
SECTION 8.03.    Application of Trust Money.  The Trustee shall hold in trust money or U.S. Government Obligations (including proceeds thereof) deposited with it pursuant to this Article VIII.  The Trustee shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S. Government Obligations through each Paying Agent and in accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes so discharged or defeased; provided that, 

-68-

if there is a tender offer by the Issuer for outstanding Notes that is in progress at the time of such deposit, such money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.01 or 8.02 may be applied to pay any cash consideration for any Notes validly tendered into such tender offer and not validly withdrawn so long as prior to any such application the Issuer delivers an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee certifying that after giving effect to such application, the amount remaining on deposit with the Trustee will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes (excluding Notes delivered to the Trustee for cancellation and Notes to be repurchased in such tender offer) for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption, as the case may be.
SECTION 8.04.    Repayment to Issuer.  Each of the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall promptly turn over to the Issuer upon request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in this Article VIII that, in the written opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants delivered to the Trustee (which delivery shall only be required if U.S. Government Obligations have been so deposited), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent discharge or defeasance in accordance with this Article VIII.
Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer upon written request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors, and the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall have no further liability with respect to such monies.
SECTION 8.05.    Indemnity for U.S. Government Obligations.  The Issuer shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited U.S. Government Obligations or the principal and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations.
SECTION 8.06.    Reinstatement.  If the Trustee or any Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article VIII by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes so discharged or defeased shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article VIII until such time as the Trustee or any Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article VIII; provided, however, that, if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, or interest on, any such Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent.
             
 
ARTICLE IX
AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS
SECTION 9.01.    Without Consent of the Holders.  Without the consent of any Holder, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend this Indenture:
(1)    to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, as determined by the Issuer in good faith;
(2)    to provide for the assumption by a successor Person of the obligations of the Issuer or any Guarantor under this Indenture;
(3)    to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes (provided that the uncertificated Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code, or in a manner such that the uncertificated Notes are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code);

-69-

(4)    to add Guarantees with respect to the Notes, including any Note Guarantees, or to secure the Notes;
(5)    to add to the covenants of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary;
(6)    to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders or that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder in any material respect;
(7)    to conform the text of this Indenture or the Notes (including the Note Guarantees) to any provision of the “Description of Notes” in the Offering Memorandum to the extent that such provision in the “Description of Notes” was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this Indenture or the Notes;
(8)    to make any amendment to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the transfer and legending of Notes; provided, however, that (a) compliance with this Indenture as so amended would not result in Notes being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any other applicable securities law and (b) such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer Notes; and
(9)    to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.
SECTION 9.02.    With Consent of the Holders.  The Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, the Notes), including, without limitation, the provisions related to a Change of Control, and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provisions may also be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, the Notes).  However, without the consent of each Holder affected thereby, an amendment or waiver may not, among other things:
(1)    reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;
(2)    reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Note;
(3)    reduce the principal of or change the Stated Maturity of any Note;
(4)    reduce the amount payable upon the redemption of any Note;
(5)    make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Note;
(6)    impair the contractual right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes;
(7)    make any change in the amendment provisions that require each Holder’s consent or in the waiver provisions;
(8)    expressly subordinate the Notes or any Note Guarantee in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor; or
(9)    make any change in, or release other than in accordance with this Indenture, any Note Guarantee that would adversely affect the Holders.

-70-

The consent of the Holders is not necessary under this Indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment.
After an amendment under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer will be required to send to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment, with a copy to the Trustee.  However, the failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment under this Section 9.02.

SECTION 9.03.    Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers.  
(a)    A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder of a Note shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Note or portion of the Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Note.  However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Note or portion of the Note if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date on which the Trustee receives an Officers’ Certificate from the Issuer certifying that the requisite principal amount of Notes have consented.  After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder.  An amendment or waiver becomes effective upon the (i) receipt by the Issuer or the Trustee of consents by the Holders of the requisite principal amount of securities, (ii) satisfaction of conditions to effectiveness as set forth in this Indenture and any indenture supplemental hereto containing such amendment or waiver and (iii) execution of such amendment or waiver (or supplemental indenture) by the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee.
(b)    The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture.  If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding Section 9.03(a), those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date.  No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date.
SECTION 9.04.    Notation or Exchange of Notes.  If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Note, the Issuer may require the Holder of the Note to deliver it to the Trustee.  The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Note regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder.  Alternatively, if the Issuer or the Trustee so determine, the Issuer in exchange for the Note shall issue and, upon written order of the Issuer signed by an Officer, the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms.  Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Note shall not affect the validity of such amendment, supplement or waiver.
SECTION 9.05.    Trustee to Sign Amendments.  The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article IX if the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee.  If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it.  In signing such amendment, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive indemnity or security satisfactory to it and shall be provided with, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, (i) an Officers’ Certificate and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.
SECTION 9.06.    Additional Voting Terms; Calculation of Principal Amount.  All Notes issued under this Indenture shall vote and consent together on all matters (as to which any of such Notes may vote) as one class and no Notes will have the right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter.  Determinations as to whether Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent shall be made in accordance with this Article IX and Section 2.13.
 
 
ARTICLE X

GUARANTEE
SECTION 10.01.    Note Guarantee.
(a)    Initially, the Issuer and each direct and indirect Restricted Subsidiary that is a Domestic Subsidiary of the Issuer that Guarantees the obligations of the Issuer under the Credit Agreement, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, will jointly and severally irrevocably and unconditionally Guarantee, on a senior unsecured basis, the performance and full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of the Issuer under the Indenture and the Notes, whether for payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes, expenses, indemnification or otherwise, on the terms set forth in the Indenture by executing the Indenture.
(b)    Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, on a senior basis, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns (i) the performance and punctual payment when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes, whether for payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes and all other monetary obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes and (ii) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Issuer whether for fees, expenses, indemnification or otherwise under this Indenture and the Notes (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  The Guaranteed Obligations of all Guarantors shall be unsecured.  Each Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from any Guarantor, and that each Guarantor shall remain bound under this Article X notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation.
(c)    Each Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Issuer of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment.  Each Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Notes or the Guaranteed Obligations.  The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuer or any other Person under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (iv) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Guaranteed Obligations or each Guarantor; (v) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (vi) any change in the ownership of each Guarantor, except as provided in Section 10.02(b).  Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to have its obligations hereunder divided among the Guarantors, such that such Guarantor’s obligations would be less than the full amount claimed.
(d)    Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to have the assets of the Issuer first be used and depleted as payment of the Issuer’s or such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder prior to any amounts being claimed from or paid by such Guarantor hereunder.  Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to require that the Issuer be sued prior to an action being initiated against such Guarantor.
(e)    Each Guarantor further agrees that its Note Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Trustee to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.
(f)    The Note Guarantee of each Guarantor is, to the extent and in the manner set forth in this Article X, equal in right of payment to all Senior Indebtedness and senior in right of payment to all Subordinated Indebtedness of such Guarantor.
(g)    Except as expressly set forth in Sections 8.01(b), 10.02 and 10.06, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the 

-72-

obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.
(h)    Each Guarantor agrees that its Note Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all the Guaranteed Obligations.  Each Guarantor further agrees that its Note Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise.
(i)    In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or the Trustee has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuer to pay the principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply with any other Guaranteed Obligation, each Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Trustee an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid principal amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by applicable law) and (iii) all other monetary obligations of the Issuer to the Holders and the Trustee.
(j)    Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations.  Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article VI for the purposes of the Note Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article VI, such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purposes of this Section 10.01.
(k)    Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses) Incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01.
(l)    Upon request of the Trustee, each Guarantor shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.
SECTION 10.02.    Limitation on Liability.  
(a)    The obligations of each Guarantor under its Note Guarantee are intended to be limited as necessary to prevent that Guarantee from constituting a fraudulent conveyance under applicable law. If, however, a Note Guarantee were rendered voidable, it could be subordinated by a court to all other indebtedness or other liabilities (including guarantees and other contingent liabilities) of the applicable Guarantor, and, depending on the amount of such other indebtedness, a Guarantor’s liability on its Note Guarantee could be reduced to zero.
(b)    A Note Guarantee as to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary that is (or becomes) a party hereto on the date hereof or that executes a supplemental indenture in accordance with Section 4.11 and provides a Guarantee of the Notes shall terminate and be of no further force or effect and such Note Guarantee shall be deemed to be automatically released from all obligations under this Article X upon any of the following:

-73-

(1)    with respect to a Guarantor, upon the sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer (including through merger, consolidation, amalgamation or otherwise) of the Capital Stock (including any sale, disposition or other transfer following which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary) of the applicable Guarantor if such sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer is made in a manner not in violation of the Indenture;
(2)    with respect to a Guarantor, upon the designation of the Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary under the Indenture;
(3)    with respect to a Guarantor, if the Guarantor is dissolved or liquidated;
(4)    upon the release or discharge of the Guarantee by a Guarantor of the Credit Agreement or any other Indebtedness that resulted in the obligation to provide a Note Guarantee, except a release or discharge by or as a result of payment under such Guarantee; and
(5)    if the Issuer exercises its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option as described under Section 8.01(b) or if the Issuer’s obligations under the Indenture are discharged in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.
A Restricted Subsidiary’s Note Guarantee also will be automatically released upon the applicable Subsidiary ceasing to be a Subsidiary as a result of any foreclosure of any pledge or security interest securing amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement or other exercise of remedies in respect thereof.
As of September 30, 2019, the Issuer’s Subsidiaries that will not Guarantee the Notes had no Indebtedness outstanding (excluding intercompany liabilities). The Issuer’s Subsidiaries that will not Guarantee the Notes generated $129.3 million and $14.2 million of our consolidated revenue and operating income, respectively, in each case, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, and accounted for approximately 2.5% of our total assets (excluding all intercompany balances), and approximately 1.5% of our total liabilities (excluding all intercompany balances) as of September 30, 2019.
SECTION 10.03.    [Reserved].
SECTION 10.04.    Successors and Assigns.  This Article X shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustee and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder or the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Indenture and in the Notes shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture.
SECTION 10.05.    No Waiver.  Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article X shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege.  The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article X at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.
SECTION 10.06.    Modification.  No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Article X, nor the consent to any departure by any Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.  No notice to or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle any Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.
SECTION 10.07.    Execution of Supplemental Indenture for Future Guarantors.  Each Subsidiary of the Issuer which is required to become a Guarantor of the Notes pursuant to Section 4.11 shall promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit C hereto pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor under this Article X and shall Guarantee the Notes.  Concurrently with the execution and 

-74-

delivery of such supplemental indenture, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate stating that such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.
SECTION 10.08.    Non-Impairment.  The failure to endorse a Note Guarantee on any Note shall not affect or impair the validity thereof.

If the party elects to give the Trustee e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the 

-75-

Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling.  The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction.  The party providing electronic instructions agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk or interception and misuse by third parties.
(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, as long as the Notes are in the form of a Global Note, notice to the Holders may be made electronically in accordance with procedures of the Depository.
SECTION 11.02.    Certificate and Opinion as to Conditions Precedent.  Upon any request or application by the Issuer to the Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action under this Indenture, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee at the request of the Trustee:
(a)    an Officers’ Certificate in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee stating that, in the opinion of the signers, all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with; and
(b)    an Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent have been complied with.
SECTION 11.03.    Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion.  Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a covenant or condition provided for in this Indenture (other than pursuant to Section 4.10) shall include:
(a)    a statement that the individual making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition;
(b)    a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;
(c)    a statement that, in the opinion of such individual, he has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and
(d)    a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such individual, such covenant or condition has been complied with; provided, however, that with respect to matters of fact an Opinion of Counsel may rely on an Officers’ Certificate or certificates of public officials.
SECTION 11.04.    When Notes Disregarded.  In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuer, the Guarantors or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Issuer or the Guarantors shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.  Subject to the foregoing, only Notes outstanding at the time shall be considered in any such determination.
SECTION 11.05.    Rules by Trustee, Paying Agent and Registrar.  The Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by or a meeting of the Holders.  The Registrar and a Paying Agent may make reasonable rules for their functions.
SECTION 11.06.    Legal Holidays.  If a payment date is not a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and no interest shall accrue on any amount that would have been 

-76-

otherwise payable on such payment date if it were a Business Day for the intervening period.  If a regular Record Date is not a Business Day, the Record Date shall not be affected.
SECTION 11.07.    Governing Law.  THIS INDENTURE AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
SECTION 11.08.    No Recourse Against Others.  No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Issuer or any Guarantor will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any Guarantor under the Notes, any Note Guarantee or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder, by accepting a Note, waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver and release may not be effective to waive liabilities under the U.S. federal securities laws, and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy.
SECTION 11.09.    Successors.  All agreements of the Issuer and the Guarantors in this Indenture and the Notes shall bind such person’s successors.  All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors.
SECTION 11.10.    Multiple Originals.  The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture.  Each signed copy shall be an original (which may be delivered in original form or facsimile or an electronic file thereof), but all of them together represent the same agreement.  One signed copy is enough to prove this Indenture.
SECTION 11.11.    Table of Contents; Headings.  The table of contents, cross-reference sheet and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not intended to be considered a part hereof and shall not modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.
SECTION 11.12.    Indenture Controls.  If and to the extent that any provision of the Notes limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of this Indenture, such provision of this Indenture shall control.
SECTION 11.13.    Severability.

EACH PURCHASER OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY IS HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT THE SELLER MAY BE RELYING ON THE EXEMPTION FROM THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5 OF THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144A THEREUNDER.  THE HOLDER OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE ISSUER THAT (A) SUCH SECURITY MAY BE RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, ONLY (1)(a) INSIDE THE UNITED STATES TO A PERSON WHO THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) PURCHASING FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (b) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES TO A NON-U.S. PERSON IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 903 OR RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (c) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144

Each Regulation S Note shall bear the following additional legend:
“THIS NOTE (OR ITS PREDECESSOR) WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION ORIGINALLY EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED IN THE UNITED STATES OR TO, OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OR BENEFIT OF, ANY U.S. PERSON EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.  TERMS USED ABOVE HAVE THE MEANINGS GIVEN TO THEM IN REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT”
Each Definitive Note shall bear the following additional legend:
“IN CONNECTION WITH ANY TRANSFER, THE HOLDER WILL DELIVER TO THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT SUCH CERTIFICATES AND OTHER INFORMATION AS SUCH TRANSFER AGENT MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE TO CONFIRM THAT THE TRANSFER COMPLIES WITH THE FOREGOING RESTRICTIONS.”
(ii)    Upon any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Definitive Note, the Registrar shall permit the Holder thereof to exchange such Transfer Restricted Note for a Definitive Note that does not bear the legends set forth above and rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Transfer Restricted Definitive Note if the Holder certifies in writing to the Registrar that its request for such exchange was made in reliance on Rule 144 (such certification to be in the form set forth on the reverse of the Initial Note).
(iii)    Upon a sale or transfer after the expiration of the Restricted Period of any Initial Note acquired pursuant to Regulation S, all requirements that such Initial Note bear the Restricted Notes Legend shall cease to apply and the requirements requiring any such Initial Note be issued in global form shall continue to apply.

[FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF INITIAL NOTE] 
4.625% Senior Notes Due 2028
1.    Interest
ASGN Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (such corporation, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the “Issuer”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate of 4.625% per annum. Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing on May 15, 2020. Interest on the Notes will accrue from November 22, 2019. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. If any interest payment date, any redemption date or the maturity date for the Notes falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment will be made on the next succeeding Business Day and no interest on such payment will accrue in respect of the delay.
2.    Method of Payment
The Issuer shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the May 1 and November 1 (each a “Record Date”) immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date even if Notes are canceled after the Record Date and on or before the Interest Payment Date.  Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments.  The Issuer shall pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.  Payments in respect of the Notes represented by a Global Note (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Depository.  The Issuer shall make all payments in respect of a certificated Note (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) at the office of the Paying Agent, except that, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on certificated Notes shall be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion).
3.    Paying Agent and Registrar
U.S. Bank National Association will be the Trustee under the Indenture and will appointed by the Issuer as the registrar (the “Registrar”) and paying agent (the “Paying Agent”) with regard to the Notes.  The Indenture will contain certain limitations on the rights of the Trustee, should it become a creditor of the Issuer, to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on certain Property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise.
4.    Indenture
The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of November 22, 2019 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee.  Capitalized terms used herein are used as defined in the Indenture, unless otherwise indicated.  The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture.  The Notes are subject to all terms and provisions of the Indenture, and the Holders (as defined in the Indenture) are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms and provisions.  If and to the extent that any provision of the Notes limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Indenture, such provision of the Indenture shall control.
The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Issuer.  [This Note is one of the Initial Notes referred to in the Indenture.] The Notes include the Initial Notes and any Additional Notes.  The Initial Notes and any Additional Notes are treated as a single class of securities under the Indenture.  The Indenture imposes certain 

A-6

limitations on the ability of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other things, make certain Investments and other Restricted Payments, Incur Indebtedness, enter into consensual restrictions upon the payment of certain dividends and distributions by such Restricted Subsidiaries, issue or sell shares of certain Capital Stock of the Issuer and such Restricted Subsidiaries, enter into or permit certain transactions with Affiliates, create or Incur Liens and make Asset Dispositions.  The Indenture also imposes limitations on the ability of the Issuer and each Guarantor to consolidate or merge with or into any other Person or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its property.
5.    Optional Redemption
At any time and from time to time on and after May 15, 2023 (the “First Call Date”), the Issuer will be entitled at its option to redeem all or a portion of the Notes upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ written notice (to the Holders and the Trustee), at the redemption prices (expressed in percentages of principal amount on the redemption date) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to (but excluding) the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), if redeemed during the twelve month period commencing on May 15 of the years set forth below:
	
		
	Period
	Redemption Price

	2023
	102.313%

	2024
	101.156%

	2025 and thereafter    
	100.000%

In addition, at any time and from time to time prior to November 15, 2022, the Issuer will be entitled at its option on one or more occasions to redeem Notes (which includes Additional Notes, if any) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed 40% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes (which includes Additional Notes, if any) issued at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) of 104.625% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to (but excluding) the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), with the Net Cash Proceeds from one or more Equity Offerings of the Issuer, or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds are contributed to the Issuer; provided, however, that:
(1)    at least 60% of such aggregate principal amount of the Notes (which includes Additional Notes, if any) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such redemption (other than the Notes held, directly or indirectly, by the Issuer or its Affiliates); and
(2)    each such redemption occurs within 90 days after the date of the related Equity Offering.
Prior to the First Call Date, the Issuer will be entitled at its option to redeem all or a portion of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).
The Trustee shall have no obligation to calculate or verify the calculation of the Applicable Premium.
6.    Notice of Redemption
The Issuer will redeem Notes of $2,000 or less in whole and not in part. The Issuer will cause notices of redemption to be mailed by first-class mail (or with respect to Global Notes, to the extent permitted or required by applicable DTC procedures or regulations, sent electronically) at least 10 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address (with a copy to the Trustee).

A-7

If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that Note will state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. The Issuer will issue a Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note in the name of the Holder upon cancellation of the original Note. Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of them called for redemption unless the Issuer defaults in the payment thereof.
Notice of any redemption upon any corporate transaction or other event (including any Equity Offering, Incurrence of Indebtedness, Change of Control or other transaction) may be given prior to the completion thereof, and any such redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of a corporate transaction or other event. If such redemption is so subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition and, if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded if any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date, or by the redemption date as so delayed. In addition, the Issuer may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.
7.    Repurchase of Notes at the Option of the Holders upon Change of Control and Asset Dispositions
Upon a Change of Control, each Holder shall have the right, subject to certain conditions specified in the Indenture, to cause the Issuer to repurchase all or any part of the Notes of such Holder at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to (but excluding) the date of repurchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the related Interest Payment Date) as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Indenture.
In accordance with Section 4.08 of the Indenture, the Issuer will be required to offer to purchase Notes upon the occurrence of certain events.
8.    Guarantee
The payment by the Issuer of the principal of and interest on the Notes is unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several senior unsecured basis by each of the Guarantors to the extent set forth in the Indenture.
9.    Denominations; Transfer; Exchange
The Notes are in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 principal amount and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.  A Holder shall transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture.  Upon any registration of transfer or exchange, the Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture.  The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Notes (i) selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Note to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Note not to be redeemed) or (ii) during a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed.
10.    Persons Deemed Owners
The registered Holder of this Note shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.
11.    Unclaimed Money
Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer upon written request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors, and the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall have no further liability with respect to such monies.

A-8

12.    Discharge and Defeasance
Subject to certain conditions, the Issuer at any time shall be entitled to terminate some or all of its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the Issuer irrevocably deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be.
13.    Amendment, Waiver
Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may, with or without the consent of the Holders, modify, amend or supplement the Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees as provided in Article IX of the Indenture.
14.    Defaults and Remedies
Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (1) a default in the payment of interest on the Notes when due, continued for 30 days, (2) the Issuer (A) defaults in the payment of principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Note when due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise or (B) fails to purchase Notes when required pursuant to this Indenture or the Notes, and (3) other Events of Default set forth in Section 6.01 of the Indenture.
15.    Trustee Dealings with the Issuer
The Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Issuer or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.  Any Paying Agent, Registrar, co-Registrar or co-Paying Agent may do the same with like rights.
16.    No Recourse Against Others
No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Issuer or any Guarantor will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any Guarantor under the Notes, any Note Guarantee or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder, by accepting a Note, waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver and release may not be effective to waive liabilities under the U.S. federal securities laws, and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy.
17.    Authentication
This Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note.
18.    Abbreviations
Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TEN ENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act).
19.    CUSIP Numbers; ISINs
The Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers and ISINs to be printed on the Notes and has directed the Trustee to use CUSIP numbers and ISINs in notices of redemption as a convenience to the Holders.  No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

20.    Governing Law
THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
This certificate is delivered to request a transfer of $    principal amount of the 4.625% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “Notes”) of ASGN INCORPORATED (collectively with its successors and assigns, the “Issuer”).

The undersigned represents and warrants to you that:
1.    We are an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)), purchasing for our own account or for the account of such an institutional “accredited investor” at least $100,000 principal amount of the Notes, and we are acquiring the Notes not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of the Securities Act.  We have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of our investment in the Notes, and we invest in or purchase securities similar to the Notes in the normal course of our business.  We, and any accounts for which we are acting, are each able to bear the economic risk of our or its investment.
2.    We understand that the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and, unless so registered, may not be sold except as permitted in the following sentence.  We agree on our own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which we are purchasing Notes to offer, sell or otherwise transfer such Notes prior to the date that is one year after the later of the date of original issue and the last date on which either of the Issuer or any affiliate of the Issuer was the owner of such Notes (or any predecessor thereto) (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”) only (a) in the United States to a person whom we reasonably believe is a qualified institutional buyer (as defined in rule 144A under the Securities Act) in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, (b) outside the United States in an offshore transaction in accordance with Rule 904 of Regulation S under the Securities Act, (c) pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided by Rule 144 thereunder (if applicable) or (d) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, in each of cases (a) through (d) in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States.  In addition, we will, and each subsequent Holder is required to, notify any purchaser of the Note evidenced hereby of the resale restrictions set forth above.  The foregoing restrictions on resale will not apply subsequent to the Resale Restriction Termination Date.  If any resale or other transfer of the Notes is proposed to be made to an institutional “accredited investor” prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the transferor shall deliver a letter from the transferee substantially in the form of this letter to the Issuer and the Trustee, which shall provide, among other things, that the transferee is an institutional “accredited investor” within the 

B-1

meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act and that it is acquiring such Notes for investment purposes and not for distribution in violation of the Securities Act.  Each purchaser acknowledges that the Issuer and the Trustee reserve the right prior to the offer, sale or other transfer prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date of the Notes pursuant to clause (b), (c) or (d) above to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel, certifications or other information satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee.
