AGREEMENT:

 

In consideration of the
covenants and conditions set forth herein, and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
Extra Space and HSRE agree as follows:

 

1.             Recitals and Definitions.  The parties acknowledge that the Recitals set
forth above are true and correct and are hereby incorporated into the body of
this Third Amendment.  Unless otherwise
set forth herein, all capitalized terms used in this Third Amendment shall have
the same meaning in this Third Amendment as set forth in either the Original
Agreement, as amended or supplemented by the First Amendment, the Second
Amendment and this Third Amendment (collectively the “Contribution
Agreement”).

 

2.             Expiration of Due Diligence Period.  The parties acknowledge that the Due
Diligence Period has expired and that HSRE has waived and does hereby waive any
rights it might have to terminate Contribution Agreement pursuant to Section 8.3
of the Contribution Agreement.

 

3.             Approval of Third Party Loan Documents.  Pursuant to Section 3.2.1.1 of the
Contribution Agreement, HSRE hereby approves the amount, interest rate, payment
schedule, repayment term and other terms of the Existing Indebtedness and
approves the Third Party Loan Documents. 
The parties acknowledge, however, that as part of the application to the
Lender to consent to the transaction which is the subject of this Agreement
Extra Space, at HSRE’s request, included a request that the Lender 

 

 

agree
to certain modifications of the Third Party Loan Documents in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit No. 1 and by this reference made a part hereof
(hereinafter the “Requested Loan Document
Modifications”).  The parties
agree that HSRE may, in good faith, continue to pursue the Lender’s consent to
the Requested Loan Document Modifications to the Third Party Loan Documents and
Extra Space agrees to cooperate in good faith with HSRE in such requests.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.1.5
of the Contribution Agreement, HSRE’s obligations under the Contribution
Agreement shall not be contingent or otherwise conditioned upon either the
Lender or any servicer of the Existing Indebtedness consenting to the Requested
Loan Document Modifications.  HSRE agrees
that within five (5) business days of the date of this Third Amendment,
HSRE shall, in good faith, submit to the Lender all of the information and
documentation heretofore requested in writing from HSRE by the Lender and shall
hereafter submit to the Lender in a reasonably timely manner all information
and documentation hereafter requested from the Lender.

 

4.             Exercise of Option to Extend Closing for Lender
Approval Extension Period. 
Pursuant to Section 3.2.3 of the Contribution Agreement, HSRE
hereby exercises HSRE’s option to extend the Closing for the Lender Approval
Extension Period.

 

5.             Agreement Regarding Capital Expenditure Fund and
Waiver of Repair Notice. 
Prior to the Closing, Extra Space shall advance to ESP 51 the sum of
$116,750.00 (hereinafter the “Capital Expenditure Fund”).  The Capital Expenditure Fund shall be used by
HSRE-ESP to fund the cost of performing such of the capital repairs indentified
in Schedule No. 1 attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof
(hereinafter the “Capital Repair Schedule”)
as HSRE may, from time to time, direct. 
Extra Space’s advance to ESP 51 of the Capital Expenditure Fund (A) shall
be in full and complete satisfaction of Extra Space’s obligation to repair any
of the items listed HSRE’s September 9, 2009 Repair Notice and (B) shall
not be treated as a capital contribution or a loan by Extra Space to HSRE-ESP
or to ESP 51 and shall not cause an increase in the Contribution Value.  Pursuant to Section 8.1 of the
Contribution Agreement, HSRE hereby waives any and all requirements that Extra
Space repair any of the Repair Items or any of the other repair and/or
maintenance items identified by HSRE in HSRE’s September 9, 2009 Repair
Notice.

 

6.             Agreement Regarding Designation of Insurance
Program.  The parties
acknowledge that property and casualty insurance for the Facilities is
currently provided pursuant to a “REIT Program” pursuant to which ESP 57 and
ESP Texas have elected to carry high deductibles for certain potential
risks.  The parties also acknowledge that
Extra Space has proposed that casualty insurance for the Facilities can be provided
either pursuant to Extra Space’s existing REIT Program, or, at a higher cost,
through Extra Space’s “JV Program” pursuant to which ESP 57 and ESP Texas can
elect to reduce or eliminate the deductible risks, or by using HSRE’s property
and casualty insurance program.  The
parties agree that provided such insurance satisfies the requirements of the
Lender with respect to the Facilities, HSRE may, at the time of Closing, elect
that property and casualty insurance for the Facilities be provided pursuant to
any of the three preceding described programs. 
Any further changes in the casualty insurance coverage for the
Facilities will be approved as part of the process of approving the Annual
Business Plan and/or Annual Operating Budget.

 

7.             Annual Business Plan and Annual Operating Budget.  The parties acknowledge that Extra Space
delivered to HSRE the Annual Business Plan and the Annual Operating Budget in
accordance with Section 8.4 of the Contribution Agreement and that Extra
Space is in the process of preparing the Annual Business Plan and Annual
Operating Budget for fiscal year 2010. 
HSRE hereby approves the Annual Business Plan and the Annual Operating
Agreement as previously submitted to HSRE by Extra Space and acknowledges that
such approval constitutes HSRE’s approval of the Annual Business Plan and
Annual Budget within the meaning of Section 11.1.4 of the Contribution
Agreement.  Upon completion of the fiscal
year 2010 Annual Business Plan and Annual Operating Budget, the fiscal year
2010 Annual Business Plan and Annual Operating Budget shall be reviewed and
approved by the 

 

 

parties
in accordance with the provisions of the form of HSRE-ESP Operating Agreement
and the form of Property Management Agreement. 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.1.4 of the
Contribution Agreement, HSRE’s obligations under the Contribution Agreement
shall not be contingent or otherwise conditioned upon HSRE’s approval of the
fiscal year 2010 Annual Business Plan and/or Annual Operating Budget.

 

8.             Waiver of Title Objections, Environmental Objections,
Insurance Objections and Budget Objections.  HSRE hereby waives all of its Title
Objections, Environmental Objections, Insurance Objections and Budget
Objections, subject, however, to Extra Space’s undertakings expressly set forth
in Extra Space’s Objection Response.

 

9.             Amendment of Sections 2.2.2, 2.2.3 and 2.2.4 of
the Contribution Agreement. 
Sections 2.2.2, 2.2.3 and 2.2.4 of the Contribution Agreement are hereby
amended by deleting said Sections 2.2.2, 2.2.3 and 2.2.4 in their entirety and
replacing them with the following Sections 2.2.2, 2.2.3 and 2.2.4:

 

2.2.2        Distribution Amount. 
Immediately after the Closing Extra Space and HSRE shall cause HSRE-ESP
to distribute to Extra Space cash in an amount (the “Extra Space
Distribution Amount”) equal to the sum of: (i) the “Initial
HSRE Contribution Amount” (hereinafter defined) minus (ii) any closing
costs and prorations described in Section 4.3.4 below (including the costs
described in Section 4.3.4 below) (collectively, the “Prorations”)
and credited, as of the Proration Date (as defined below), to HSRE-ESP, plus (iii) any
Prorations credited, as of the Proration Date, to Extra Space.  As used herein, the term “Initial HSRE Contribution Amount” shall mean fifty percent
(50%) of the difference between (A) the Contribution Value, minus (B) the
sum of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Existing Indebtedness plus
all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Existing Indebtedness as of
the Proration Date.  Extra Space and HSRE
agree that for purposes of determining the balance of Extra Space’s “Capital
Account” (as defined in the HSRE-ESP Operating Agreement) and Extra Space’s “Adjusted
Capital Account” (as defined in the HSRE-ESP Operating Agreement), the gross
amount of Extra Space’s initial “Capital Contribution” to HSRE-ESP shall be
reduced by the Initial HSRE Contribution Amount notwithstanding the fact that
the amount actually distributed to Extra Space by HSRE-ESP is adjusted (either
increased or decreased) pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.2.2.  The parties hereby agree that the
provisions of this Section 2.2.2 are intended to cause the
Adjusted Capital Accounts of HSRE and Extra Space to be in an
50.00%/50.00% ratio, respectively, following the contribution of the ESP Interests
by Extra Space and the Initial HSRE Contribution Amount by HSRE and the
distribution of the Extra Space Distribution Amount to Extra Space and the
pro-rations and credits provided for herein.

 

2.2.3        Cash to be Contributed by HSRE.  At Closing, HSRE shall contribute to HSRE-ESP
cash in an amount (the “Total HSRE Contribution
Amount”) equal to the sum of (i) the Initial HSRE Contribution
Amount, plus (ii) Fifty Percent (50.00%) of the total Prorations charged
to HSRE-ESP.

 

2.2.4        Cash to be Contributed by Extra Space.  At Closing, Extra Space shall contribute to
HSRE-ESP cash in an amount (the “Total Extra Space
Contribution Amount”) equal to the sum of Fifty Percent (50.00%) of
the Prorations charged to HSRE-ESP.

 

 

10.           Amendment
of Section 3.2.3 of Contribution Agreement.  Section 3.2.3 of the Contribution
Agreement is hereby amended by deleting said Section 3.2.3 in its entirety
and replacing it with the following Section 3.2.3:

 

3.2.3        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement,
if at the Closing Date, Lender and/or any servicer of Existing Indebtedness has
not consented to the transaction which is the subject of this Agreement and
provided that HSRE has not terminated this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.3
below, HSRE shall have the option to either (A) extend the Closing for an
additional ninety (90) days (hereinafter the “Lender
Approval Extension Period”) to permit Extra Space to continue to
pursue with reasonable diligence Lender’s consent to the transaction which is
the subject of this Agreement or (B) terminate this Agreement.  Such option shall be exercised by HSRE giving
Extra Space written notice of HSRE’s election to either extend the Closing or
terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 3.2.3 at any time on or
before the date on which the Closing Date would be scheduled to occur but for
such extension.  If HSRE fails to give
such written notice to Extra Space, such failure shall be deemed to be an
election to terminate this Agreement.  If
HSRE elects to extend the Closing for the Lender Approval Extension Period, the
Closing shall be on the earlier of the date on which the Lender Approval
Extension Period expires or fifteen (15) days after the Lender consents to the
transaction which is the subject of this Agreement.

 

11.           Amendment
of Section 4.3.4 of Contribution Agreement.  Section 4.3.4 of the Contribution
Agreement is hereby amended by deleting said Section 4.3.4 in its entirety
and replacing it with the following Section 4.3.4:

 

4.3.4        Closing Costs.  At the Closing, HSRE-ESP shall pay all
recording costs and all escrow costs. 
Furthermore, at Closing, the following costs shall be paid by HSRE-ESP
and/or reimbursed to Extra Space or HSRE by HSRE-ESP, as applicable: (i) all
actual out of pocket costs incurred or paid to unaffiliated third parties by
HSRE in connection with its due diligence investigation of the Property, the
ESP Interests, the Texas Interests and Extra Space, including, but not limited
to, the costs of the Surveys; (ii) all fees, costs, expenses, and other
charges charged by Lender and/or any servicer of the Existing Indebtedness or
incurred in the satisfaction of any condition or requirement imposed by Lender
or such servicer with respect to Lender’s consenting to the transaction which
is the subject of this Agreement; (iii) all attorney’s fees and costs
incurred by either Extra Space or HSRE in connection with the negotiation and
documentation of the transaction which is the subject of this Agreement and the
performance of due diligence for the benefit of HSRE pursuant to this Agreement
(hereinafter collectively the “Reimbursable Costs”);
provided, however, that in no event shall the aggregate amount of Reimbursable
Costs paid to or for the benefit of HSRE pursuant to this Section 4.3.4
exceed the aggregate amount of Reimbursable Costs paid to or for the benefit of
Extra Space pursuant to this Section 4.3.4 regardless of whether the
aggregate amount of Reimbursable Costs paid or incurred by HSRE exceeds the
aggregate amount of Reimbursable Costs paid or incurred by Extra Space.  At Closing, the following costs shall be paid
by Extra Space and/or HSRE-ESP in accordance with local practice and custom in
the area applicable to each Property:  (A) the
cost of the base title policy, endorsements, reinsurance or coinsurance, (B) transfer,
documentary and similar taxes related to the purchase of the ESP Interests, if
any; provided, however, that in the absence of local practice and custom
relating to the payment of such costs, such costs shall be paid by HSRE-ESP.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Section 4.3.4, if the Closing does not occur, no party to this
Agreement shall be responsible for reimbursing

 

 

any other party to this Agreement for fees,
expenses costs incurred by or for the benefit of such party except as expressly
provided otherwise in Section 13.1.2 below.

 

12.           Amendment
of Section 11.1 of Contribution Agreement.  The first paragraph of Section 11.1 of
the Contribution Agreement is hereby amended by deleting said paragraph in its
entirety and replacing it with the following:

 

11.1         HSRE’s Conditions
Precedent.  The
obligations of HSRE under this Agreement are contingent upon the satisfaction
of each of the following conditions as of the Closing Date.  If as of the Closing Date any of the
following conditions is not satisfied, HSRE may, on the Closing Date, either
waive such condition and proceed to Closing or terminate this Agreement by
written notice to Extra Space.  Upon such
termination, neither party shall have any further rights or liabilities
hereunder except for those provisions which expressly survive the termination
of this Agreement.

 

13.           Amendment
of Section 11.2 of Contribution Agreement.  The first paragraph of Section 11.2 of

by written notice to HSRE.  Upon such
termination, neither party shall have any further rights or liabilities
hereunder except for those provisions which expressly survive the termination
of this Agreement.

 

14.           Amendment
of Exhibit A to Contribution Agreement.  The Contribution Agreement is hereby amended
by deleting the form of Operating Agreement set forth on Exhibit A to the
Contribution Agreement in its entirety and replacing it with the form of
Operating Agreement set forth on “Exhibit A” attached hereto as Exhibit No. 2
and by this reference made a part hereof.

 

15.           Amendment
of Exhibit C to Contribution Agreement.  Exhibit C to the Contribution Agreement
(the Non-Competition and Right of First Opportunity Agreement) is hereby
amended by deleting Article V(a) of said Non-Competition and Right of
First Opportunity Agreement in its entirety from said Exhibit C and
replacing it with the following Article V(a):

 

(a)           with respect to the provisions of ARTICLE II hereof, on
the date (the “ROFO Termination Date”) that is  the earlier of (i) date on which a Rejection has
occurred or been deemed to occurred with respect to three consecutive Proposed
Project Notices given by ESP to HSRE; or (ii) the Exclusivity Termination

amended, supplemented and/or otherwise modified to, but not including, the date
hereof, the “Credit Agreement”); and

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 10.01 of
the Credit Agreement, the parties hereto wish to amend certain provisions of
the Credit Agreement as provided herein, subject to the terms and conditions
set forth below.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed;

 

A.                                   Amendments to the Credit Agreement

 

1.             Section 1.01 of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended by (i) deleting the definitions of “Applicable Rate”, “Class”, “Commitment”,
“Interest Payment Date”, “Loan”, “Maturity
Date”, “Other Term Commitments”
and “Other Term Loans” appearing
in said Section in their entirety and (ii) inserting in appropriate
alphabetical order the following new definitions:

 

“Applicable Rate” means a percentage per annum equal to (A) with
respect to B-1 Term Loans, (i) in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans,
2.25% and (ii) in the case of Base Rate Loans, 1.25% and (B) with
respect to B-2 Term Loans, (i) in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans,
4.50% and (ii) in the case of Base Rate Loans, 3.50%, less,
in each case under each of the preceding clauses (A) and (B), if (but only

Rate resulting from a change in Moody’s Applicable Corporate Rating shall
become effective as of the first Business Day immediately following the date
the then most recent Moody’s Applicable Corporate Rating is published; provided that at the option of the Administrative Agent or
the Required Lenders, no deduction shall apply (x) as of the first
Business Day after the date on which Moody’s ceases to maintain or publish a
Moody’s Applicable Corporate Rating (of any level), and shall continue not to
apply to and including the date on which a new Moody’s Applicable Corporate
Rating is so published (with any deduction as otherwise determined in
accordance with this definition to apply 

 

 

thereafter), and (y) as
of the first Business Day after an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a),
(f) or (g) shall have occurred and be continuing, and shall continue
not to apply to but excluding the date on which such Event of Default is cured
or waived (with any deduction as otherwise determined in accordance with this
definition to apply thereafter). It is understood and agreed that (w) the “Applicable
Rate” (as defined herein immediately prior to giving effect to the First
Amendment Effective Date) shall apply for all periods prior to the First
Amendment Effective Date, (x) the “Applicable Rate” (as defined herein
immediately after giving effect to the First Amendment Effective Date and prior
to the Second Amendment Effective Date) shall apply for all periods on and
after the First Amendment Effective Date and prior to the Second Amendment
Effective Date,  (y) the “Applicable
Rate” (as defined herein immediately after giving effect to the Second
Amendment Effective Date and prior to the Fourth Amendment Effective Date)
shall apply for all periods on and after the Second Amendment Effective Date
and prior to the Fourth Amendment Effective Date and (z) the “Applicable
Rate” (as defined herein immediately after giving effect to the Fourth
Amendment Effective Date) shall apply for all periods on and after the Fourth
Amendment Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) the
Applicable Rate in respect of Extended Term Loans of any Extension Series or
Refinancing Term Loans of any Refinancing Series shall be the applicable
percentages per annum provided pursuant to the relevant Extension Amendment or
Refinancing Amendment, as the case may be, and (y) the Applicable Rate of
certain Loans shall be increased as, and to the extent, necessary to comply
with the provisions of Section 2.16.

Effective Date in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the amount set

Commitment”, as such amount may be adjusted from time to time in accordance
with this Agreement.  On the Fourth
Amendment Effective Date, (x) the initial aggregate amount of the B-2 Term
Commitments is $1,000,000,000 and (y) the B-2 Term Commitment of each
Lender equals its B-2 Term Loan Extension Amount.

 

“B-2 Term Lender” means, at any time, any Lender that has a

“B-2 Term Loan Extension Amount” means, as to the Existing
Loans of any Extending B-2 Term Lender, the product obtained by multiplying (x) the
principal amount of such Lender’s Existing Loans subject to a B-2 Term Loan
Extension Election (determined after giving effect to the Amortization
Adjustment referred to therein) by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which
is the aggregate principal amount of all Existing Loans accepted for extension
by the Borrower on the Fourth Amendment Effective Date and the denominator of
which is the aggregate principal amount of all Existing Loans subject to B-2
Term Loan Extension Elections, as such resulting product may be modified by the
Administrative Agent to account for rounding adjustments.  The Administrative Agent shall determine the
final B-2 Term Loan Extension Amount of each Lender on the Fourth Amendment
Effective Date and shall notify each such Lender of its B-2 Term Loan Extension
Amount promptly following the Fourth Amendment Effective Date. All such determinations
made by the Administrative Agent shall, absent manifest error, be final,
conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders and the Administrative
Agent shall have no liability to any Person with respect to such determination
absent gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

“B-2 Term Loan Extension Election” means an election by a
Lender provided in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Fourth

Lenders for a given Refinancing Series of Refinancing Term Commitments or
Refinancing Term Loans or Extending Term Lenders for a given Extension Series of

Replacement Commitment, its B-2 Term Commitment, its Refinancing Term
Commitment of a given Refinancing Series or its Extended Term Commitment of a given
Extension Series, as the context may require.

effective yield on such Loans as determined by the Administrative Agent, taking

provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing,
repayments of B-2 Term Loans shall in any event be required to be made on the
Maturity Date therefor as provided in Section 2.07(c).

 

(c) The
Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the
Appropriate Lenders on the Maturity Date for each Class of Loans, the
aggregate principal amount of all such Loans outstanding on such date.”.

 

23.           Section 2.11 of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended by (i) inserting the text “or Notes”
immediately after the first instance of the text “Note” appearing in clause (a) of
said Section and (ii) inserting the text “of the applicable Class or
Classes” immediately after the text “such Lender’s Loans” appearing in clause (a) of
said Section.

 

24.           Section 2.15 of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the said Section in its entirety
and inserting the following new Section 2.15 in lieu thereof:

 

“2.15. Refinancing
Amendments. At any time after the Third Amendment Effective Date, the
Borrower may obtain from any Lender or any Additional Lender Credit Agreement
Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of all or any portion of the Loans then
outstanding under this Agreement (which for this purpose will be deemed to
include any then outstanding Refinancing Term Loans), in the form of
Refinancing Term Loans or Refinancing Term Commitments, in each case pursuant
to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that
such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (i) will rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the
other Loans and Commitments hereunder, (ii) have such pricing and optional
prepayment terms as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof, (iii) except
as otherwise provided in Section 2.05(b)(ii)(B) or as may be agreed
to by the Lenders and Additional Lenders providing such Credit Agreement
Refinancing Indebtedness in the respective Refinancing Amendment (but solely as
it relates to such Lenders waiving their pro rata share of any applicable
prepayment or repayment), each Class of Refinancing Term Loans shall be
prepaid and repaid (or offered to be repaid in the case of Section 2.05(c))
on a pro rata basis with all voluntary prepayments and mandatory prepayments (other
than amortization payments) of the other Classes of Loans and (iv) otherwise
be treated hereunder no more favorably, including with respect to covenants and
events of default, than the Refinanced Debt; provided
further that the terms and conditions applicable
to such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness may provide for any additional
or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed
between the Borrower and the Lenders thereof and applicable only during periods
after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect 

 

14

 

on the date such Credit
Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness is issued, incurred or obtained.  The effectiveness of any Refinancing
Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of
the conditions set forth in Sections 4.01 (i), (j) and (k) and, to
the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the
Administrative Agent of (i) legal opinions, board resolutions and officers’
certificates consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date other than
changes to such legal opinion 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 agreements  and/or such amendments to the Collateral
Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent (including
Mortgage amendments) in order to ensure that the Refinancing Term Loans are
provided with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents.  Each tranche of Credit Agreement Refinancing
Indebtedness incurred under this Section 2.15 shall be in an aggregate
principal amount that is not less than $50,000,000.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment.  Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that
this Agreement and the other Loans Documents may be amended pursuant to a
Refinancing Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent
(but only to the extent) necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms
of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto
(including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject
thereto as Refinancing Term Loans and/or Refinancing Term Commitments), (ii) provide
certain class protection to the Lenders and Additional Lenders providing such
Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness with respect to voluntary prepayments
and mandatory prepayments, (iii) make such other changes to this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents consistent with the provisions and intent of the
second paragraph of Section 10.01 and (iv) effect such other
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, and the Required Lenders
hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such
Refinancing Amendment.”.

 

25.           Article II of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following new Section 2.16
immediately following Section 2.15 of said Article:

 

“2.16  Extended Term Loans. (a) The
Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of
the Loans of a given Class (each, an “Existing Term Loan Tranche”)
be converted to extend the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of
principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such
Loans (any such Loans which have been so converted, “Extended
Term Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.16.  In order to establish any Extended Term
Loans, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who
shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable
Existing Term Loan Tranche) (each, an “Extension Request”)
setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established,
which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such Existing
Term Loan Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees
payable) and (y) be identical to the Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche
from which such Extended Term Loans are to be converted, except that: (i) all
or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term
Loans 

 

15

 

may be delayed to
later dates than the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Loans
of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, to the extent provided in the applicable
Extension Amendment; (ii) the Effective Yield with respect to the Extended
Term Loans (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, original
issue discount or otherwise) may be different than the Effective Yield for the
Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, in each case, to the extent provided
in the applicable Extension Amendment; provided that
if at the time of the effectiveness of any Extension Amendment with respect any
new Extended Term Loans, Extended Term Loans of another Extension Series remain
outstanding, then if the Effective Yield in respect of such new Extended Term
Loans shall at any time (over the life of such Extended Term Loans) exceed by
more than 0.25% the Effective Yield on the Extended Term Loans pursuant to any
other Extension Series then outstanding, the Applicable Rate applicable
thereto shall be increased to the extent necessary so that at all times
thereafter the Extended Term Loans of each existing Extension Series do
not receive less than the Effective Yield with respect to such new Extended
Term Loans less 0.25%; (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other
covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity
Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment
(immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans); and (iv) Extended
Term Loans may have optional prepayment terms (including call protection) as
may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof; provided
that no Extended Term Loans may be optionally prepaid prior to the date on
which all Loans with an earlier final stated maturity (including Loans under
the Existing Term Loan Tranche from which they were converted) are repaid in
full, unless such optional prepayment is accompanied by a pro rata optional
prepayment of such other Loans; provided,  however, that (A) in no event shall the final maturity
date of any Extended Term Loans of a given Extension Series at the time of
establishment thereof be earlier than the then Latest Maturity Date of any
other Loans hereunder, (B) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any
Extended Term Loans of a given Extension Series at the time of
establishment thereof shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average
Life to Maturity of any other Loans then outstanding and (C) any such
Extended Term Loans (and the Liens securing the same) shall be permitted by the
terms of the ABL Credit Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement (in each
case, to the extent the ABL Credit Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement
are then in effect).  Any Extended Term
Loans converted pursuant to any Extension Request shall be designated a series
(each, an “Extension Series”) of Extended
Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement; provided
that any Extended Term Loans converted from an Existing Term Loan Tranche may,
to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as
an increase in any previously established Extension Series with respect to
such Existing Term Loan Tranche.  Each
Extension Series of Extended Term Loans incurred under this Section 2.16
shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $50,000,000.

 

(b) The
Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least five (5) Business
Days prior to the date on which Lenders under the Existing Term Loan Tranche
are requested to respond, and shall agree to such procedures, 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 2.16.  No Lender shall have any obligation to agree
to have any of its Loans of any Existing Term Loan Tranche converted into 

 

16

 

Extended Term Loans pursuant
to any Extension Request.  Any Lender
(each, an “Extending Term Lender”) wishing to
have all or a portion of its Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche subject
to such Extension Request converted into Extended Term Loans shall notify the
Administrative Agent (each, an “Extension Election”)
on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of
its Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche which it has elected to request
be converted into Extended Term Loans (subject to any minimum denomination
requirements imposed by the Administrative Agent).  In the event that the aggregate principal
amount of Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to Extension
Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Term Loans requested pursuant to the
Extension Request, Loans subject to Extension Elections shall be converted to
Extended Term Loans on a pro rata basis based on the aggregate principal amount
of Loans included in each such Extension Election.

 

(c) Extended
Term Loans shall be established pursuant to an amendment (each, a “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement among the Borrower,
the Administrative Agent and each Extending Term Lender providing an Extended
Term Loan thereunder which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in
Section 2.16(a) above (but which shall not require the consent of any
other Lender other than those consents provided pursuant to the Fourth
Amendment).  The effectiveness of any
Extension Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of
each of the conditions set forth in Sections 4.01(i), (j) and (k) and,
to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the
Administrative Agent of (i) legal opinions, board resolutions and officers’
certificates consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date other than
changes to such legal opinion 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 agreements and/or such
amendments to the Collateral Documents as may be reasonably requested by the
Collateral Agent in order to ensure that the Extended Term Loans are provided
with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Extension Amendment. Each of
the parties hereto hereby agrees that this Agreement and the other Loans
Documents may be amended pursuant to an Extension Amendment, without the
consent of any other Lenders, to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary
to (i) reflect the existence and terms of the Extended Term Loans incurred
pursuant thereto, (ii) modify the scheduled repayments set forth in Section 2.07
with respect to any Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to an Extension Election
to reflect a reduction in the principal amount of the Loans thereunder in an
amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Extended Term Loans
converted pursuant to the applicable Extension (with such amount to be applied
ratably to reduce scheduled repayments of such Loans required pursuant to Section 2.07),  (iii) make such other changes to this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents consistent with the provisions and
intent of the second paragraph of Section 10.01 and (iv) effect such
other 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, and the Required Lenders
hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such
Extension Amendment.

 

17

 

(d) 
No conversion of Loans pursuant to any Extension in accordance with this Section 2.16
shall constitute a voluntary or mandatory payment or prepayment for purposes of
this Agreement.”.

 

26.           Section 7.03 of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the text “Section 2.15” appearing
in clause (b)(i)(y) of said Section with the text “Sections 2.15 and
2.16”.

 

27.           Section 7.06 of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the text “Section 7.05” appearing
in clause (a)(iv) of said Section with the text “the then Applicable
Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio”.

 

28.           Section 7.12 of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended by replacing each instance of the text “Other Term
Loans” appearing in said Section with the text “Refinancing Term Loans”.

 

29.           Section 10.01 of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the text “of a given Class”
immediately after the text “all outstanding Loans” appearing in the last
paragraph of said Section.

 

30.           Section 10.22 of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following new clause (iv) at
the end of said Section:

 

“(iv) EACH
EXTENDING B-2 TERM LENDER, BY ITS EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THE FOURTH
AMENDMENT AND ITS B-2 TERM LOAN EXTENSION ELECTION, HEREBY (I) CONFIRMS
ITS AGREEMENT TO THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 10.22 AND (II) PURSUANT
TO SECTION 5.2(C) OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT, AGREES TO BE BOUND
BY THE TERMS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT AS A “TERM SECURED PARTY”.”.

 

31.           Article X of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following new Section 10.24
immediately following Section 10.23 of said Article:

 

“10.24. Special
Provisions Relating to the Fourth Amendment. Each Lender which executes and
delivers a counterpart of the Fourth Amendment, any Refinancing Amendment or
any Extension Amendment (for itself and its successors and assigns) hereby
irrevocably agrees, for the benefit of each other Lender (and such Lender’s
successors and assigns), that such Lender (and its successors and assigns) will
not enter into any amendment or modification to this Agreement to the extent
such amendment or modification:

 

(i)                                     amends or modifies this Section 10.24
(or any defined term as used herein) or the definition of “Other Allocable
Share”, unless the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby has been
obtained; or

 

(ii)                                  alters the required application of any
prepayment or repayment as between the various Classes, unless the consent of
Lenders holding more than 50% of the

 

18

 

respective Class of
Commitment or Loans which is being allocated a lesser prepayment or repayment
as a result of such alteration is obtained (it being understood, however, that (x) the
Required Lenders may waive, in whole or in part, any such prepayment or
repayment, so long as the application, as amongst the various Classes, of any
such prepayment or repayment which is still required to be made is not altered
and (y) any conversion of any Class of Loans into another Class of
Loans hereunder in like principal amount in a manner similar to the conversion
of Existing Loans into B-1 Term Loans and B-2 Term Loans on the Fourth
Amendment Effective Date and any other conversion of any Class of Loans
into Extended Term Loans pursuant to an Extension Amendment shall not be
considered a “prepayment” or “repayment” for purposes of this clause (ii)).

 

Each of the agreements
contained in this Section 10.24 are separate contractual arrangements
among the Loan Parties and the Lenders and each Lender may directly enforce
against any other Lender any breach (or attempted breach) of any of the
agreements contained in this Section 10.24.”.

 

32.           The Credit Agreement is hereby
amended by attaching a new Schedule 2.01B thereto and inserting therein the
information set forth on Schedule 2.01B attached hereto.

 

B.                                     Miscellaneous Provisions

 

1.             In order to induce the Lenders to
enter into this Fourth Amendment, the Borrower, on behalf of itself and the
other Loan Parties, hereby represents and warrants to each of the Lenders that,
as of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date (as defined below):

 

(i)            the execution,
delivery and performance by each Loan Party of this Fourth Amendment and the
performance of the Credit Agreement (as amended hereby) have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action on the
part of such Loan Party and do not and will not (a) contravene the terms
of any of the certificates of incorporation or by-laws (or equivalent
Organization Documents) of such Loan Party, (b) conflict with or result in
any breach or contravention of, or the creation of any Lien under (other than
as permitted under Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement), or require the
payment to be made under (x) (A) any New Notes Documentation and any
other indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or loan agreement evidencing
Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount in excess of the Threshold Amount
or (B) any other Contractual Obligation to which such Loan Party is a
party or affecting such Loan Party or the properties of such Loan Party or any
of its Subsidiaries or (y) any material order, injunction, writ or decree
of any Governmental Authority or any arbitral award to which such Loan Party or
its property is subject, or (c) violate any material Law; except with
respect to any conflict, breach or contravention or payment (but not creation
of Liens) referred to in clause (b)(x), to the extent that such conflict,
breach, contravention or payment could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect;

 

(ii)           this Fourth
Amendment has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each Loan Party
and this Fourth Amendment and the Credit Agreement (as amended or otherwise
modified hereby) constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of such
Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with their terms,
except as

 

19

 

such
enforceability may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws and by general principles
of equity;

 

(iii)          the representations
and warranties set forth in Article V of the Credit Agreement and in the
other Loan Documents are, both immediately before and after giving effect to
this Fourth Amendment, true and correct in all material respects both on and as
of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date with the same effect as though made on
and as of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date unless such representations and
warranties relate to a specific earlier date, in which case such
representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material
respects as of such earlier date; and

 

(iv)          there exists no
Default or Event of Default on the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, both
immediately before and after giving effect to this Fourth Amendment.

 

2.             (a) Except as expressly set
forth herein, this Fourth Amendment shall not by implication or otherwise
limit, impair, constitute a waiver of or otherwise affect the rights and
remedies of the Lenders or the Agents under the Credit Agreement or any other
Loan Document, and shall not alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of
the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the
Credit Agreement or any other provision of the Credit Agreement or of any other
Loan Document, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall
continue in full force and effect. 
Nothing herein shall be deemed to entitle the Borrower to receive a
consent to, or a waiver, amendment, modification or other change of, any of the
terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances.

 

(b)           On and after the Fourth Amendment
Effective Date, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”,
“hereof”, “herein”, or words of like import, and each reference to the Credit
Agreement in any other Loan Document shall be deemed a reference to the Credit
Agreement as modified hereby.  This
Fourth Amendment shall constitute a “Loan Document” for all purposes of the
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

3.             This
Fourth Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the
different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which counterparts
when executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall
together constitute one and the same instrument.  Delivery by facsimile or other electronic
imaging means of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this
Fourth Amendment shall be effective as delivery of an original executed
counterpart of this Fourth Amendment. A complete set of counterparts executed
by all the parties hereto shall be lodged with the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent.

 

4.             THIS FOURTH
AMENDMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 

5.             (a) This Fourth Amendment shall become effective on
the date (the “Fourth Amendment Effective
Date”) when:

 

20

 

(i)            the Administrative
Agent shall have received executed B-2 Term Loan Extension Elections
representing an aggregate principal amount of at least $750,000,000 in Existing Loans electing
conversion to B-2 Term Loans;

 

(ii)           the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders and each Extending B-2 Term Lender shall have signed a
counterpart hereof (whether the same or different counterparts) and the
Borrower, the Required Lenders and each Extending B-2 Term Lender shall have delivered
(including by way of facsimile transmission) their signed counterparts to the
