The words "hereof", "herein" and "hereunder" and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement, and Article, Section, Schedule and Exhibit references are to Articles and Sections of and Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement, unless otherwise specified.  The words "asset" and "property" shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts and contract rights.  Unless the context requires otherwise, (i) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein or in any other Loan Document), (ii) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person's successors and assigns, and (iii) any reference to any law shall include all statutory and regulatory provisions consolidating, amending, replacing or interpreting such law and any reference to any law or regulation shall, unless otherwise specified, refer to such law or regulation as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time.

Section 1.05                          Ratings.  A rating, whether public or private, by S&P or Moody's shall be deemed to be in effect on the date of announcement or publication by S&P or Moody's, as the case may be, of such rating or, in the absence of such announcement or publication, on the effective date of such rating and will remain in effect until the announcement or publication of, or (in the absence of such announcement or publication) the effective date of, any change in such rating.  In the event the standards for any rating by Moody's or S&P are revised, or such rating is designated differently (such as by changing letter designations to numerical designations), then the references herein to such rating shall be deemed to refer to the revised or redesignated rating for which the standards are closest to, but not lower than, the standards on the effective day for the rating which has been revised or redesignated, all as determined by the Required Banks in good faith.  Long-term debt supported by a letter of credit, guarantee or other similar credit enhancement mechanism shall not be considered as senior unsecured long-term debt.  If either Moody's or S&P has at any time more than one rating applicable to senior unsecured long-term debt of any Person, the lowest such rating shall be applicable for purposes hereof.  For example, if Moody's rates some senior unsecured long-term debt of any Person Baa1 and other such debt of such Person Baa2, the senior unsecured long-term debt of such Person shall be deemed to be rated Baa2 by Moody's.

Section 1.06                          Exchange Rate.

	
(a)

	
The Spot Rates used in determining the Dollar Equivalent of Foreign Currency Letters of Credit and Foreign Currency Advances and the Foreign Currency Equivalent shall be the Spot Rates determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date.  Such Spot Rates shall become effective as of such Revaluation Date and shall be the Spot Rates employed in converting any amounts between the applicable currencies until the next Revaluation Date to occur.  Except for purposes of financial statements delivered by the Borrower hereunder or calculating financial covenants hereunder or except as otherwise provided herein, the applicable amount of any currency (other than Dollars) for purposes of the Loan Documents shall be such Dollar Equivalent amount as so determined by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as applicable.

	
(b)

	
Whenever in this Agreement in connection with an Advance, conversion, continuation or prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Advance or with the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit, an amount, such as a required minimum or multiple amount is expressed in Dollars, but if such Letter of Credit is a Foreign Currency Letter of Credit or Eurodollar Rate Advance is a Foreign Currency Advance, such amount shall be the relevant Foreign Currency Equivalent of such Dollar amount (rounded to the nearest unit of such Foreign Currency, with 0.5 of a unit being rounded upward), as determined by the Administrative Agent.

Section 1.07                          Change of Currency.

	
(a)

	
Each obligation of the Borrower to make a payment denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the Effective Date shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of such adoption.  If, in relation to the currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the London interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention or practice with effect from the date on which such member state adopts the Euro as its lawful currency; provided that if any Advance in the currency of such member state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Advance, at the end of the then current Interest Period.

	
(b)

	
Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the Euro.

	
(c)

	
Each provision of this Agreement also shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect a change in currency of any other country and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the change in currency.

Section 1.08                          Additional Alternative Currencies.

	
(a)

	
The Borrower may from time to time request that Eurodollar Rate Advances be made by the Banks in a currency other than those specifically listed in the definition of "Committed Foreign Currency"; provided that such requested currency is a lawful currency (other than U.S. Dollars) that is readily available and freely transferable and convertible into U.S. Dollars. In the case of any such request with respect to the making of Eurodollar Rate Advances, such request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the Banks.

	
(b)

	
Any such request shall be made to the Administrative Agent not later than 9:00 a.m., 20 Business Days prior to the date of the desired Eurodollar Rate Advance (or such other time as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent).  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of such request. Each Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent, not later than 8:00 a.m., ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such request whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to the making of Eurodollar Rate Advances in such requested currency.

	
(c)

	
Failure by a Bank to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a refusal by such Bank to permit Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in such requested currency. If the Administrative Agent and all the Banks consent to making Eurodollar Rate Advances in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be a Committed Foreign Currency hereunder for purposes of any Borrowings of Eurodollar Rate Advances.  If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for an additional currency under this Section 1.08, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Borrower.

ARTICLE II                          

 AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE REVOLVING CREDIT ADVANCES

Section 2.01                          The Revolving Credit Advances.

	
(a)

	
Each Bank severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Revolving Credit Advances in Dollars or one or more Committed Foreign Currencies to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed such Bank's Unused Revolving Credit Commitment at such time; provided that (i) no Revolving Credit Advance shall be required to be made, except as a part of a Revolving Credit Borrowing that is in an aggregate amount not less than $10,000,000 in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances and $5,000,000 in the case of Base Rate Advances and in an integral multiple of $1,000,000, (ii) each Revolving Credit Borrowing shall consist of Revolving Credit Advances of the same Type made on the same day by the Banks ratably according to their respective Revolving Credit Commitments, (iii) in the event there are Foreign Currency Letters of Credit then outstanding, the Spot Rates used in determining the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment shall be determined as of the date of the Revolving Credit Advance, and after giving effect to such Revolving Credit Advance, the sum of the aggregate L/C Exposure plus the Foreign Currency Letter of Credit Contingency Amount plus the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure plus the Gap Cash Collateral Amount (the sum of such amounts being herein referred to as the "Utilized Commitment Amount") shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments.  The acceptance by the Borrower of the proceeds of a Revolving Credit Advance shall be deemed a representation that such Revolving Credit Advance complies with the conditions set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the preceding sentence.  Within the limits of each Bank's Unused Revolving Credit Commitment in effect from time to time, the Borrower may borrow, prepay pursuant to Section 2.10 and reborrow under this Section 2.01.  The Borrower agrees to give a Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.02(a) as to each Revolving Credit Advance.

	
(b)

	
Letters of Credit.  Each Issuing Bank agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to issue letters of credit (collectively, together with the Existing Letters of Credit, the "Letters of Credit", and each a "Letter of Credit") for the account of the Borrower (such issuance, and any funding of a draw thereunder and any Letter of Credit Advance with respect thereto, to be made by the Issuing Banks (including through such branches or Affiliates as such Issuing Bank and the Borrower shall jointly agree) in reliance on the agreements of the other Banks pursuant to Section 2.03) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until 10 days prior to the Maturity Date in an aggregate Available Amount (with respect to Foreign Currency Letters of Credit, calculated by the applicable Issuing Bank using the Spot Rates determined as of the date of such issuance, amendment or extension, as applicable) (i) for all Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Banks, not to exceed at any time the aggregate Letter of Credit Commitments at such time minus the aggregate principal amount of the Letter of Credit Advances outstanding at such time, (ii) for all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, not to exceed at any time the Letter of Credit Commitment of such Issuing Bank at such time minus the aggregate principal amount of the Letter of Credit Advances owed to such Issuing Bank outstanding at such time, (iii) each such Letter of Credit, not to exceed an amount equal to the Unused Revolving Credit Commitments of the Banks at such time and (iv) for Financial Standby Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Banks, not to exceed at any time the Financial LC Sublimit minus the aggregate principal amount of Letter of Credit Advances outstanding at such time in respect of Financial LCs.  Each request by the Borrower for the issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation that the requirements with respect to Available Amount as set forth in this paragraph have been satisfied before and after giving effect to the issuance of the requested Letter of Credit or the requested amendment.

No Letter of Credit shall have expiration dates later than 10 Business Days prior to the Maturity Date; provided, however, that if the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent each consent, in their sole discretion, the expiration date (including any expiration date which may be extended automatically under the terms of the Letters of Credit) of any Letter of Credit may extend beyond the date referred to in this sentence (each such Letter of Credit, together with any Letter of Credit outstanding on the Effective Date with an expiration date beyond the Maturity Date, an "Extended Letter of Credit"); provided, further, that, on or prior to the date that is 95 days prior to the Maturity Date (or, if later, the date of issuance of the applicable Extended Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall provide cash collateral for each Extended Letter of Credit that is outstanding or is issued after the date that is 95 days prior to the Maturity Date in an amount equal to (x) if the Extended Letter of Credit is not a Foreign Currency Letter of Credit, 102% of the face amount of such Extended Letter of Credit or (y) if the Extended Letter of Credit is a Foreign Currency Letter of Credit, 110% of the face amount of such Extended Letter of Credit; provided, further, that at no time shall the aggregate amount of Extended Letters of Credit plus the unpaid principal amount of Revolving Credit Advances exceed the sum of the Revolving Credit Facility plus the amount of cash collateral then held with respect to the Extended Letters of Credit.  The cash collateral specified in the foregoing sentence shall be provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower by requesting a Revolving Credit Advance pursuant to Section 2.01(a).  If the Borrower shall fail to make such request, the Borrower shall be deemed, without any further action by any party hereto, to have requested a Base Rate Advance in an amount equal to the amount of such cash collateral.  The Banks agree that they will make such Revolving Credit Advance whether or not the applicable conditions precedent in Section 3.02 are then satisfied.  Upon the furnishing by the Borrower of such cash collateral on the ninety-fifth day prior to the Maturity Date to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall transfer to individual cash collateral accounts established by each Issuing Bank which has issued an Extended Letter of Credit the pro rata share of such cash collateral allocable to such Issuing Bank.  Simultaneous with receipt of such cash collateral, such Extended Letters of Credit, shall for all purposes cease to be Letters of Credit hereunder.  Thereafter, fees, costs and expenses, as well as terms for release of such cash collateral, shall be as agreed from time to time between the Borrower and such Issuing Bank; provided that in the absence of such agreement between the Borrower and such Issuing Bank, the terms of this Agreement shall, as between the Borrower and such Issuing Bank, continue to govern the fees, costs and expenses payable in respect of such Extended Letters of Credit.  Within the limits referred to above, the Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit under this Section 2.01(b), repay any Letter of Credit Advances resulting from drawings thereunder pursuant to Section 2.03(d) and request the issuance of additional Letters of Credit under this Section 2.01(b).

Section 2.02                          Making the Revolving Credit Advances.

	
(a)

	
Each Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be made on notice (a "Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing"), given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) (i) on the date of a proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing comprised of Base Rate Advances, (ii) on the third Business Day prior to the date of a proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances and (iii) at least four (4) Business Days (or five (5) Business Days in the case of a Special Notice Currency) prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Advances denominated in Committed Foreign Currencies or of any conversion of Eurodollar Rate Advances denominated in Committed Foreign Currencies to Base Rate Advances, by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Bank prompt notice thereof, which notice by Administrative Agent may be by facsimile (or by other electronic communication if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Bank).  Each Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be by facsimile (or by other electronic communication if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Administrative Agent), confirmed immediately in writing, in substantially the form of Exhibit B-1, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, (ii) Type of Revolving Credit Advances comprising such Revolving Credit Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, (iv) if such Revolving Credit Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the initial Interest Period for each such Revolving Credit Advance, and (v) the currency of the Advances to be borrowed.  If the Borrower fails to specify a currency in a Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing requesting a Borrowing, then the Advances so requested shall be made in Dollars.  In addition, in the event that any Foreign Currency Letters of Credit are then outstanding, the Borrower shall also submit with such Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing, a certificate setting forth the Available Amount of all outstanding Foreign Currency Letters of Credit and the amount of the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment as of the date of such certificate using the London closing mid-rate published by Bloomberg (or any successor) on such date (or, if such exchange rates are not available, the Spot Rates determined as of such date).  Each Bank shall, before 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 8.02, in Same Day Funds, such Bank's Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Credit Borrowing in the applicable currency.  Each Bank may at its option make any Advance by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Bank to make such Advance; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Advance in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  After the Administrative Agent's receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower at the Administrative Agent's aforesaid address.

	
(b)

	
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, at no time shall there be more than ten Revolving Credit Borrowings outstanding; provided that for purposes of the limitation set forth in this sentence, all Revolving Credit Borrowings consisting of Base Rate Advances shall constitute a single Revolving Credit Borrowing.

	
(c)

	
Each Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.  In the case of any Revolving Credit Borrowing that the related Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower shall indemnify each Bank against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Bank as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing for such Revolving Credit Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Bank to fund the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by such Bank as part of such Revolving Credit Borrowing when such Revolving Credit Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.

	
(d)

	
Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank (x) in the case of Base Rate Advance, at least two (2) hours prior to the proposed time of such Borrowing and (y) otherwise, prior to the proposed date of any Revolving Credit Borrowing that such Bank will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Bank's share of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made such share on such date in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if a Bank has not in fact made its share of the applicable Revolving Credit Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Bank and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to and including the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Bank, the greater of the Overnight Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to Revolving Credit Advances comprising such Revolving Credit Borrowing.  If the Borrower and such Bank 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 Bank pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Bank's Revolving Credit Advance included in such Revolving Credit Borrowing.  Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Bank that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

	
(e)

	
The failure of any Bank to make the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by it as part of any Revolving Credit Borrowing shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Revolving Credit Advance on the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to make the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by such other Bank on the date of any Revolving Credit Borrowing.

Section 2.03                          Issuance of and Drawings and Reimbursement Under Letters of Credit.

	
(a)

	
Request for Issuance.  Each Letter of Credit shall be issued upon notice and application, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on at least the third Business Day (or a later day, if acceptable to the relevant Issuing Bank in its sole discretion, but in no event later than the first Business Day) prior to the date of the proposed issuance of such Letter of Credit, by the Borrower to any Issuing Bank, with a copy of such notice of issuance and any certificate delivered pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) being delivered concurrently to the Administrative Agent.  Each of the Borrower and such Issuing Bank shall give to the Administrative Agent prompt notice of such notice of issuance by telex or facsimile (or by other electronic communication if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Administrative Agent).  Each such notice of issuance of a Letter of Credit (a "Notice of Issuance and Application for Letter of Credit") shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or telex or facsimile (or by other electronic communication if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Bank), in the form of Exhibit B-2, specifying therein the requested (A) date of such issuance (which shall be a Business Day), (B) Available Amount of such Letter of Credit, (C) expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (D) name and address of the Subsidiary on behalf of which such issuance of such Letter of Credit is requested, if applicable, (E) name and address of the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, (F) form of such Letter of Credit and (G) the requested currency of such Letter of Credit, if other than Dollars.  In addition, in the event that such Letter of Credit is a Foreign Currency Letter of Credit or any Foreign Currency Letters of Credit are then outstanding, the Borrower shall also submit with such Notice of Issuance and Application for Letter of Credit, a certificate setting forth the Available Amount of all outstanding Foreign Currency Letters of Credit and the amount of the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment as of the date of such certificate using the London closing mid-rate published by Bloomberg (or any successor) on such date (or, if such exchange rates are not available, the Spot Rates determined as of such date).  If the requested form of such Letter of Credit is acceptable to such Issuing Bank in its reasonable discretion, such Issuing Bank will, upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, make such Letter of Credit available to the Borrower at its office referred to in Section 8.02 or as otherwise agreed with the Borrower in connection with such issuance; provided that

	
(i)

	
each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars or in a Foreign Currency, provided, however, that no Issuing Bank shall be obligated to issue any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit other than a Foreign Currency Letter of Credit denominated in a Committed Foreign Currency, but each Issuing Bank shall be permitted to do so in its sole discretion if requested by the Borrower;

	
(ii)

	
notwithstanding anything set forth in clause (i) above, no Issuing Bank shall be obligated to issue a Foreign Currency Letter of Credit in the event that, as of the requested issuance date, (A) such Issuing Bank does not issue letters of credit in the requested currency, (B) the issuance of such Letter of Credit in such requested currency would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally, or (C) any requirement of law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall (1) prohibit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit in the requested currency, (2) impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to letters of credit issued in the requested currency any restriction or reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated) not in effect on the date of this Agreement, or (3) shall result in any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense that was not applicable, in effect, or known to such Issuing Bank as of the date of this Agreement and that such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it;

	
(iii)

	
if any Bank becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank will be required to issue any Letter of Credit or to amend any outstanding Letter of Credit to increase the face amount thereof, alter the drawing terms thereunder or extend the expiry date thereof, unless such Issuing Bank is satisfied that any exposure that would result therefrom is eliminated or fully covered by the Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders, by Cash Collateralization, by other arrangements satisfactory to the applicable Issuing bank it its sole discretion, or by a combination thereof satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank;

	
(iv)

	
no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue any Letter of Credit if the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally; and

	
(v)

	
no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue any Letter of Credit if after giving effect to such issuance the aggregate face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement by such Issuing Bank would exceed its Letter of Credit Commitment, unless such Issuing Bank shall have otherwise agreed.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Issuing Bank shall issue any Letter of Credit after it has received a notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Banks that a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, until it receives a subsequent notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Banks that such Default or Event of Default has been cured or waived.

	
(b)

	
Notice of Issuance, Amendment or Extension of Letters of Credit.  The Borrower and each Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any issuance of, amendment to, or extension of, any Letter of Credit issued hereunder, including, with respect to any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit, the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit (calculated by the applicable Issuing Bank using the Spot Rate determined as of the date of issuance, amendment or extension of such Letter of Credit).

	
(c)

	
Letter of Credit Reports.

	
(i)

	
Each Issuing Bank shall furnish to the Administrative Agent on the fifth Business Day of each calendar quarter a written report (A) summarizing issuance and expiration dates of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the preceding calendar quarter and drawings during such calendar quarter under all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank and (B) setting forth the average daily aggregate Available Amount during the preceding calendar quarter of all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver such report to the Banks and the Borrower by the means provided for delivery of Communications pursuant to Section 8.02.

	
(ii)

	
Each Issuing Bank with one or more outstanding Foreign Currency Letters of Credit shall furnish to the Administrative Agent on the fifth Business Day of each calendar month a written report setting forth the Available Amount of each Foreign Currency Letter of Credit outstanding as of such date (calculated using the Spot Rates determined as of such date).

	
(d)

	
Drawing and Reimbursement.  The payment by any Issuing Bank of a draft drawn under any Letter of Credit shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement the making by such Issuing Bank of a Letter of Credit Advance, which shall be a Base Rate Advance, in the Dollar Equivalent amount of such draft (in the case of Foreign Currency Letters of Credit, calculated by the applicable Issuing Bank using the applicable Spot Rate determined as of the date of such payment).  Upon the issuance of a Letter of Credit by any Issuing Bank under Section 2.03(a), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have sold to each Bank, and each Bank shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have purchased from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount for each Bank equal to such Bank's Pro Rata Share of the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit, effective upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit.  In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Bank hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay such Bank's Pro Rata Share of each Letter of Credit Advance made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower forthwith on the date due by making available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank by deposit to the Agent's Account, in Same Day Funds, an amount equal to such Bank's Pro Rata Share of such Letter of Credit Advance.  Each Bank acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this Section 2.03(d) in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any off-set, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.  For the avoidance of doubt, the obligation of each Bank to acquire participations and reimburse Letter of Credit Advances pursuant to this Section 2.03(d) shall be absolute regardless of whether such Bank's participation or Pro Rata Share of any Letter of Credit Advance exceeds, by reason of fluctuations of foreign currency exchange rate or otherwise, such Bank's Revolving Credit Commitment.  Upon any such participation of a Bank of a portion of a Letter of Credit Advance, such Issuing Bank represents and warrants to such other Bank that such Issuing Bank is the legal and beneficial owner of such interest being assigned by it, free and clear of any Liens, but makes no other representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to such Letter of Credit Advance, the Loan Documents or the Borrower.  If and to the extent that any Bank shall not have so made the amount of such Letter of Credit Advance available to the Administrative Agent, such Bank agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such Letter of Credit Advance is due until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate for its account or the account of such Issuing Bank, as applicable.  If such Bank shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount for the account of such Issuing Bank on any Business Day, such amount so paid in respect of principal shall constitute a Letter of Credit Advance made by such Bank on such Business Day for purposes of this Agreement, and the outstanding principal amount of the Letter of Credit Advance made by such Issuing Bank shall be reduced by such amount on such Business Day.

	
(e)

	
Failure to Make Letter of Credit Advances.  The failure of any Bank to make the Letter of Credit Advance to be made by it on the date specified in Section 2.03(d) shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation hereunder to make its Letter of Credit Advance on such date, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to make the Letter of Credit Advance to be made by such other Bank on such date.

	
(f)

	
Existing Letters of Credit.  All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant to this Agreement, and from and after the Effective Date shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof.  The Borrower's reimbursement obligations in respect of each Existing Letter of Credit, and each Bank's participation obligations in connection therewith, shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement.

	
(g)

	
Applicability of ISP and UCP.  Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (i) the rules of the "International Standby Practices 1998" published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance) ("ISP") shall apply to each Performance Letter of Credit and each Financial Standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance, shall apply to each Commercial Letter of Credit.

	
(h)

	
Conflict with Issuer Documents.  In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any L/C Related Documents, the terms hereof shall control.

Section 2.04                          Fees.

	
(a)

	
Commitment Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay in Dollars to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Bank a commitment fee on the amount of such Bank's Unused Revolving Credit Commitment (determined without regard to any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit Contingency Amount and without regard to any Gap Cash Collateral Amount), payable quarterly in arrears (within three Business Days after receipt from the Administrative Agent of an invoice therefor) for each period ending on (and including) the last day of each March, June, September and December hereafter, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Effective Date, and on the Termination Date, at a rate per annum equal to the relevant rate indicated in the definition of "Applicable Margin" as in effect from time to time (the "Commitment Fee").

	
(b)

Section 2.08                          Additional Interest on Eurodollar Rate Advances.  So long as a Bank shall be required under regulations of the Federal Reserve Board to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities, Borrower shall pay to Bank additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance of such Bank during such periods as such Advance is a Eurodollar Rate Advance, from the date of such Advance until such principal amount is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all times to the remainder obtained by subtracting (i) the Eurodollar Rate for the Interest Period then in effect for such Eurodollar Rate Advance from (ii) the rate obtained by dividing such Eurodollar Rate by a percentage equal to 100% minus the Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage of such Bank for such Interest Period, payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Eurodollar Rate Advance.  Such additional interest shall be determined by such Bank and notified to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent.

Section 2.09                          Interest Rate Determination.

	
(a)

	
The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Banks of the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of Section 2.07(b).  Each such determination shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

	
(b)

	
If the Administrative Agent determines that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any Eurodollar Rate Advances (whether in Dollars or a Committed Foreign Currency) for any requested Interest Period or in connection with any Base Rate Advance, or the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Banks that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Advance will not fairly and adequately reflect the cost to such Banks of making or maintaining such Loan:

	
(i)

	
the Administrative Agent shall forthwith notify the Borrower and the Banks that the interest rate or Eurodollar Rate component of the definition of "Base Rate", as applicable, cannot be determined for such Eurodollar Rate Advances,

	
(ii)

	
each such Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance (or if such Advance is then a Base Rate Advance, will continue as a Base Rate Advance), and

	
(iii)

	
the (x) obligation of the Banks to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to Convert Revolving Credit Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances and (y) the utilization of the Eurodollar Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case, until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Banks that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

	
(c)

	
If, with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Required Banks notify the Administrative Agent (A) that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Required Banks of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurodollar Rate Advances (whether in Dollars or a Committed Foreign Currency) for such Interest Period or (B) that Dollar deposits for the relevant amounts and Interest Period for their respective Advances are not available to them in the London interbank market, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Banks, whereupon:

	
(i)

	
each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance, and

	
(ii)

	
the obligation of the Banks to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Banks that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

	
(d)

	
If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of "Interest Period" in Section 1.01, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Banks and such Revolving Credit Advances will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into Base Rate Advances (or if such Advances are then Base Rate Advances, will continue as Base Rate Advances).

	
(e)

	
On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $10,000,000, such Advances shall automatically Convert into Base Rate Advances, and on and after such date the right of the Borrower to Convert such Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall terminate.

	
(f)

	
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Banks to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended.

Section 2.10                          Optional Prepayments.  The Borrower shall have no right to prepay any principal amount of any Advance other than as provided in this Section 2.10.  The Borrower may, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent before 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on at least the first Business Day prior to the date of prepayment in the case of Base Rate Advances or upon at least (i) three Business Days' notice to the Administrative Agent in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances denominated in Dollars; (ii) four Business Days (or five, in the case of prepayment of Advances denominated in Special Notice Currencies) prior to any date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Advances denominated in Committed Foreign Currencies, in each case stating (a) the proposed date (which shall be a Business Day), (b) the aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, (c) the Type(s) of Advances to be prepaid and (d) if Eurodollar Rate Advances are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Advances.  Upon the giving of such notice, the Borrower shall, subject to the terms thereof, prepay the outstanding principal amounts of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $10,000,000 in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances and $5,000,000 in the case of Base Rate Advances and in integral multiples of $1,000,000, and after giving effect thereto no Borrowing then outstanding shall have a principal amount of less than $5,000,000; and (y) in the case of any such prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Advance, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Banks in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.12.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any such notice of prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10 may state that it is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein (including the effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

Section 2.11                          Payments and Computations.

	
(a)

	
All payments made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff.  The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under the Notes not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in Dollars to the Administrative Agent (except that payments under Section 2.08 shall be paid directly to the Bank entitled thereto) at the Agent's Account, in Same Day Funds, except with respect to principal of and interest on Advances denominated in a Committed Foreign Currency.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Advances denominated in a Committed Foreign Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Banks to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent's Office in such Committed Foreign Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the dates specified herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States.  If, for any reason, the Borrower is prohibited by any law from making any required payment hereunder in a Committed Foreign Currency, the Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Committed Foreign Currency payment amount calculated using the applicable Spot Rate determined as of the date of such payment.  Funds received after: (a) 2:00 p.m. in the case of payment in Dollars; and (b) the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of payments in a Committed Foreign Currency, in each case shall be treated for all purposes as having been received by Administrative Agent on the first Business Day next following receipt of such funds and any applicable interest or fees shall continue to accrue.  The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest, Commitment Fees or Letter of Credit Fees ratably (except amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.13 or Section 2.14 and except that any Bank may receive less than its ratable share of interest to the extent Section 2.21 or Section 8.06 is applicable to it) to the Banks for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Bank to such Bank for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 8.08(b), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Bank assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.  At the time of each payment of any principal of or interest on any Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of the Borrowing to which such payment shall apply.  In the absence of such notice the Administrative Agent may specify the Borrowing to which such payment shall apply.

	
(b)

	
All computations of interest based on the Base Rate (except during such times as the Base Rate is determined pursuant to clauses (b) or (c) of the definition thereof), of Commitment Fees and of Letter of Credit Fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate, the Overnight Rate or, during such times as the Base Rate is determined pursuant to clauses (b) or (c) of the definition thereof, the Base Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent, and all computations of interest pursuant to Section 2.08 shall be made by a Bank, on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable, or, in the case of interest in respect of Advances denominated in Committed Foreign Currencies as to which market practice differs from the foregoing, in accordance with such market practice.  Each determination by the Administrative Agent (or in the case of Section 2.08, by a Bank) of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

	
(c)

	
Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest, Commitment Fees and Letter of Credit Fees, as the case may be; provided, however, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

	
(d)

	
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 Banks or the Issuing Banks hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Banks or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of Banks or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Bank or Issuing Bank, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Overnight Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

Section 2.12                          Compensation for Losses.  If any payment or purchase of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurodollar Rate Advance is made other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment, purchase or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.09, Section 2.10, Section 2.16, Section 2.17 or Section 2.18, acceleration of the maturity of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason other than a payment by the Borrower under Section 2.02(d), the Borrower shall, within 30 days after receipt of the certificate described below from any Bank (with a copy of such certificate to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank any amounts required to compensate such Bank for any additional losses, costs or expenses which it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment, purchase or Conversion, including any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense reasonably incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Bank to fund or maintain such Advance.  In addition, if the Borrower fails to make a payment in respect of any drawing under any Letter of Credit (or interest due thereon) denominated in a Foreign Currency or Foreign Currency Advance on its scheduled due date or makes any payment due hereunder in a currency other than the currency required hereunder, the Borrower shall, within 30 days after receipt of the certificate described below from any Bank (with a copy of such certificate to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank any amounts required to compensate such Bank for any additional losses, costs or expenses which it may reasonably incur as a result of thereof.  A certificate as to the amount of such additional losses, costs or expenses, submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Bank, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 2.13                          Increased Costs and Capital Requirements.

	
(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 Bank (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage) or any Issuing Bank; (ii) subject any Bank or any Issuing Bank to any Taxes with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Advance, or any Eurodollar Rate Advance made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Bank or Issuing Bank in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 2.14 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Bank or Issuing Bank); or (iii) impose on any Bank or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Advance made by such Bank or any Letter of Credit, participation therein or Letter of Credit Advance (excluding for purposes of this subsection (iii) any Taxes); and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Bank of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Advance (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Advance) or any Base Rate Advance the interest on which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate, or to increase the cost to such Bank or Issuing Bank 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 Letter of Credit Advance, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Bank or Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Bank or Issuing Bank, the Borrower will pay to such Bank or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered; provided, that such Bank or such Issuing Bank certifies to the Borrower that it is generally seeking, or intends generally to seek, compensation from similarly situated borrowers under similar credit facilities (to the extent such Bank or Issuing Bank has the right under such similar credit facilities to do so) with respect to such Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements.

	
(b)

	
Capital Requirements.  If any Change in Law affecting a Bank or Issuing Bank or any lending office of a Bank or Issuing Bank or a Bank's or Issuing Bank's Parent Company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Bank's or Issuing Bank's capital or on the capital of such Bank's or Issuing Bank's Parent Company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Bank or the Advances made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Bank, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Bank or Issuing Bank or such Bank's or such Issuing Bank's Parent Company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Bank's or such Issuing Bank's policies and the policies of such Bank's or such Issuing Bank's Parent Company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Bank or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank or Issuing Bank or such Bank's or Issuing Bank's Parent Company for any such reduction suffered; provided, that such Bank or such Issuing Bank certifies to the Borrower that it is generally seeking, or intends generally to seek, compensation from similarly situated credit facilities (to the extent such Bank or Issuing Bank has the right under such similar credit facilities to do so) with respect to such Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity.

	
(c)

	
Certificates for Reimbursement.  A certificate of the applicable Bank or Issuing Bank setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation of such amounts and the amounts necessary to compensate such Bank or Issuing Bank or its Parent Company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 2.13(a) or Section 2.13(b) above and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Bank or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof.

	
(d)

	
Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Bank or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Bank's or Issuing Bank's right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Bank pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than three months prior to the date that such Bank notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law or compliance requirement giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Bank's intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the three-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

	
(e)

	
Designation of a Different Lending Office.  If any Bank requests compensation under this Section 2.13, then such Bank shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Bank, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.13 in the future and (ii) would not subject such Bank to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Bank.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Bank in connection with any such designation or assignment.

Section 2.14                          Taxes.

	
(a)

	
Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Documents shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.11, free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes, provided that if any Loan Party shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Bank or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the applicable Loan Party shall make such deductions and (iii) the applicable Loan Party shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

	
(b)

	
Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower.  Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.14(a) above, the Loan Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

	
(c)

	
Indemnification by the Borrower.  The Loan Parties, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Bank and each Issuing Bank, within 30 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) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Bank or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Bank or Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Bank or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

	
(d)

	
Indemnification by the Banks.  Each Bank shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Bank (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Bank's failure to comply with the provisions of Section 8.08(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Bank, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Bank by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Bank under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Bank from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this subsection (d).

	
(e)

	
Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If an indemnified party determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.14, it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the indemnifying party under this Section 2.14 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses and net of any loss or gain realized in the conversion of such funds from or to another currency incurred by the indemnified party, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the indemnifying party, upon the request of the indemnified party, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the indemnifying party (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.  This Section 2.14(e) shall not be construed to require an indemnified party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

	
(f)

	
Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

	
(g)

	
Status of Banks.

	
(i)

	
Any Bank that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or 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 Bank, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Bank is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, a Bank shall not be required to  complete, execute or deliver the documentation described therein (other than such documentation as set forth in Section 2.14(g)(ii)(A) and Section 2.14(g)(ii)(B), as applicable) if in such Bank's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or delivery would subject such Bank to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Bank.

	
(ii)

	
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a resident for tax purposes in the United States of America,

	
(A)

	
any Bank that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Bank becomes a Bank (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Bank is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.

	
(B)

	
any Foreign Lender shall 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 Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

	
(1)

	
duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party,

	
(2)

	
duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

	
(3)

	
in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a "bank" within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a "10 percent shareholder" of the Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a "controlled foreign corporation" described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a "U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate") and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or W-8BEN-E, as applicable,

	
(4)

	
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-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner, or

	
(5)

	
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 to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

	
(C)

	
If a payment made to a Bank under any Loan Document would be subject to Tax under FATCA if such Bank 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 Bank 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 Bank has complied with such Bank's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Each Bank shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent against any and all Taxes and any related penalties, interest and expenses incurred by, or asserted by any Governmental Authority against, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as a result of the failure by such Bank to timely deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy or deficiency of, any documentation required to be delivered by such Bank to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this paragraph.  Each Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Bank under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph.  The provisions of the preceding two sentences shall not be construed to limit the obligations of the Banks pursuant to Section 8.04(d).  Solely for purposes of this paragraph, "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

	
(iii)

	
Each Bank agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administration Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

	
(h)

	
For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after December 11, 2014, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall not treat (and the Banks hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to not treat) this Agreement as qualifying as a "grandfathered obligation" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

	
(i)

	
Designation of a Different Lending Office.  If any Bank requires the Borrower to pay any additional amount to such Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of such Bank pursuant to this Section 2.14, then such Bank shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Bank, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.14 in the future and (ii) would not subject such Bank to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Bank.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Bank in connection with any such designation or assignment.

	
(j)

	
Survival.  Each party's obligations under this Section 2.14 shall survive the assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, any Bank, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

Section 2.15                          Sharing of Payments, Etc.  If any Bank 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 Advances or other obligations hereunder (except amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.08, Section 2.13 or Section 2.14, and except that any Bank may receive less than its ratable share of interest to the extent Section 8.06 is applicable to it and any Defaulting Lender may receive less than its ratable share of interest, fees and other amounts payable to it under this Agreement to the extent Section 2.21 is applicable to it) resulting in such Bank's receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Advances and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its Pro Rata Share thereof as provided herein, then the Bank receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Advances and such other obligations of the other Banks, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Banks ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Advances and other amounts owing them, provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.15 shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement, (B) any payment obtained by a Bank as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Advances to any assignee or Participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.15 shall apply), or (C) any collateral obtained by an Issuing Bank in connection with arrangements made to address the risk with respect to a Defaulting Lender.  The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Bank 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 Bank were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

Section 2.16                          Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Bank (each an "Affected Bank") shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any Change in Law makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Bank, or its Eurodollar Lending Office, to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances, to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances, or to make, fund or maintain Base Rate Advances whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate hereunder or any Committed Foreign Currency, (i) the obligation of the Affected Bank to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances in the affected currency or currencies or, in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances in Dollars, shall forthwith be suspended (and any request by the Borrower for a Borrowing comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances shall, as to each Affected Bank, be deemed a request for a Base Rate Advance to be made on the same day as the Eurodollar Rate Advances of the Banks that are not Affected Banks and such Base Rate Advance shall be considered as part of such Borrowing) until the Affected Bank shall notify the Borrower, the Banks and the Administrative Agent that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, (ii) if such notice asserts in good faith the illegality of such Bank making or maintaining Base Rate Advances 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 Bank shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, (iii) forthwith after such notice from an Affected Bank to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, all Eurodollar Rate Advances of such Affected Bank shall be deemed to be Converted to Base Rate Advances (the interest rate on which Base Rate Advances of such Bank 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 Bank may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Advances to such day, or, promptly, if such Bank may not lawfully continue to maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances, but will otherwise continue to be considered as a part of the respective Borrowings that they were a part of prior to such Conversion, and (iv) if such notice asserts in good faith the illegality of such Bank determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Bank without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Bank that it is no longer illegal for such Bank to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate; provided, however, that, before making any such demand, such Bank agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Eurodollar Lending Office if the making of such a designation would allow such Bank or its Eurodollar Lending Office to continue to perform its obligations to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances and would not, in the judgment of such Bank, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Bank.  In the event any Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent of the occurrence of any circumstance contemplated under this Section 2.16, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurodollar Rate Advances that would have been made by such Bank or the Converted Eurodollar Rate Advances shall instead be applied to repay the Base Rate Advances made by such Bank in lieu of such Eurodollar Rate Advances or resulting from the Conversion of such Eurodollar Rate Advances and shall be made at the time that payments on the Eurodollar Rate Advances of the Banks that are not Affected Banks are made.  Each Bank that has delivered a notice of illegality pursuant to this Section 2.16 above agrees that it will notify the Borrower as soon as practicable if the conditions giving rise to the illegality cease to exist.

Section 2.17                          Conversion/Continuation of Advances.  The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Section 2.02(b), Section 2.09 and Section 2.16, Convert all Advances of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances of the other Type; provided, however, that (i) any Conversion of any Eurodollar Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made on, and only on, the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Advances, except as provided in Section 2.16, and (ii) Advances comprising a Borrowing may not be Converted into Eurodollar Rate Advances if the outstanding principal amount of such Borrowing is less than $10,000,000 or if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date the related notice of Conversion would otherwise be given pursuant to this Section 2.17.  Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Advances to be Converted, and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurodollar Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Advance.  Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.  If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the third Business Day prior to the last day of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower agrees to Convert all such Advances into Base Rate Advances on the last day of such Interest Period.  In the case of a failure to timely request a continuation of Advances denominated in a Committed Foreign Currency, such Advances shall be continued as Eurodollar Rate Advances in their original currency with an Interest Period of one month.  No Advance may be converted into or continued as an Advance denominated in a different currency, but instead must be repaid in the original currency of such Advance and reborrowed in the other currency.

Section 2.18                          Replacement of Bank.  If any Bank requests compensation under Section 2.13, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amounts to any Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Bank pursuant to Section 2.14 and, in each case, such Bank has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 2.14(i), or if any Bank becomes a Non-Extending Bank, or if any Bank exercises its rights under Section 2.16, or if any Bank does not consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, consent or modification with respect to any Loan Document that requires the consent of each Bank and that has been approved by the Required Banks (such Bank, a "Non-Consenting Lender"), or if any Bank is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Bank and the Administrative Agent, require such Bank to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 8.08, provided that such Bank shall be deemed to have executed such Assignment and Acceptance if it shall have not executed such assignment within ten (10) Business Days after the request to sign such assignment), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Bank, if a Bank accepts such assignment), provided that, (i) the Borrower shall have paid (or made arrangements for such payment) to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 8.08; (ii) such Bank shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.12) from the assignee and/or the Borrower; (iii) if such Bank is an Issuing Bank and any Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank remain outstanding, such Issuing Bank shall continue to have the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to each such Letter of Credit, but shall have no further obligation to issue Letters of Credit; (iv) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.13 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.14, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; (v) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law; (vi) in the case of any assignment resulting from a Bank becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent; and (vii) in the case of any assignment resulting from a Bank becoming a Non-Extending Bank, the assignee shall have consented to the applicable extension.

Section 2.19                          Evidence of Indebtedness.  Each Bank shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Bank resulting from each Advance owing to such Bank from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Bank from time to time hereunder.  The Borrower agrees that upon notice by any Bank to the Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) to the effect that a Note or other evidence of indebtedness is required or appropriate in order for such Bank to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Bank, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Bank, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a Note in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, payable to the order of such Bank in a principal amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Bank.  All references to Notes in the Loan Documents shall mean Notes, if any, to the extent issued hereunder.

Section 2.20                          Increase in the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments; Increase in Letter of Credit Commitment.

	
(a)

	
The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time prior to the Termination Date but in any event not more than once in any 12 month period, by notice to the Administrative Agent, elect to increase the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments by an amount of not less than $20,000,000 and in integral multiples of $10,000,000 in excess thereof (each a "Commitment Increase") to be effective as of a date (the "Increase Date") as specified in the related notice to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that (i) in no event shall the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments at any time exceed $1,500,000,000, (ii) on the date of any request by the Borrower for a Commitment Increase and on the related Increase Date, the applicable conditions set forth in Section 3.02 shall be satisfied and (iii) since the date of the most recently audited financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(d)(i), there has been no Material Adverse Change.

	
(b)

	
To achieve the full amount of a requested increase, and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Borrower may (i) request that one or more Banks increase their Revolving Credit Commitments, (ii) invite all Banks to increase their respective Revolving Credit Commitment, and/or (iii) invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Banks pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (each such additional Eligible Assignee, an "Additional Bank").

	
(c)

	
In the event that the Borrower has indicated its wish for the Commitment Increase to be comprised in whole or in part from increases in the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Banks, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Banks of a request by the Borrower for a Commitment Increase, which notice shall include (i) the proposed amount of such requested Commitment Increase, (ii) the proposed Increase Date and (iii) the date by which Banks wishing to participate in the Commitment Increase must commit to an increase in the amount of their respective Revolving Credit Commitments (the "Commitment Date").  No Bank shall be required to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment, and may decide whether to do so in its sole discretion.  Each Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent within the requested time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment and, if so, in what amount.  Any Bank not responding within the requested time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of the Banks' responses to each request made hereunder.

	
(d)

	
Promptly following each Commitment Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of the amount by which each Bank and/or Eligible Assignee, as the case may be, is willing to commit to the requested Commitment Increase, and the Borrower will promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the Commitment Increase that it wishes to allocate to such Bank (each an "Increasing Lender") or Eligible Assignee (each such Eligible Assignee, an "Assuming Lender"), as the case may be; provided, however, that the Revolving Credit Commitment of each such Eligible Assignee shall be in an amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.  The Borrower, at its discretion, may withdraw its request for a Commitment Increase at any time prior to the Increase Date.

	
(e)

	
On each Increase Date, each Assuming Lender shall become a Bank party to this Agreement with a Revolving Credit Commitment, and the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Increasing Lender shall be increased by, in each case, the amount of the Commitment Increase allocated to it by the Borrower, with the consent of each Issuing Bank; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall have received on or before such Increase Date the following, each dated such date:

	
(i)

	
a joinder agreement from each Assuming Lender, if any, in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, duly executed by such Eligible Assignee, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower; and

	
(ii)

	
confirmation from each Increasing Lender of the increase in the amount of its Commitment in a writing satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

	
(f)

	
At any time, any Issuing Bank and the Borrower may agree to increase the Letter of Credit Commitment of such Issuing Bank with the consent of the Administrative Agent which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

	
(g)

	
Any Bank may become an Issuing Bank by written agreement between such Bank and the Borrower, subject to notice to and the consent of the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks of the designation of any additional Issuing Bank hereunder.

	
(h)

	
On each Increase Date, upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Section 2.20(e), at the time any Issuing Bank and the Borrower agree to increase the Letter of Credit Commitment of such Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.20(f), and at the time any Bank becomes an Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.20(g), the Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks (including each Assuming Lender, if applicable) and the Borrower, on or before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) of the occurrence of the Commitment Increase to be effected on the applicable Increase Date, the Letter of Credit Commitment increase and the effective date thereof or any Bank becoming an Issuing Bank and the effective date thereof, as the case may be, and, in each case shall record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each Increasing Lender, each Assuming Lender, each Letter of Credit Commitment increase or adjustment, as applicable, and any addition of an Issuing Bank, as applicable, on such date.  On the last day of the first Interest Period ending after an Increase Date, the Borrower shall make such Borrowings and prepayments as shall be necessary to cause the outstanding Advances to be ratable with the revised Commitments resulting from any non-ratable increase in the Commitments under this Section 2.20.

Section 2.21                          Defaulting Lenders.

	
(a)

	
Reallocation of Defaulting Lender Commitment, Etc.  If a Bank becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, the following provisions shall apply with respect to any outstanding L/C Exposure of such Defaulting Lender:

	
(i)

	
the L/C Exposure of such Defaulting Lender will, subject to the limitations in proviso (A) below, automatically be reallocated (effective on the day such Bank becomes a Defaulting Lender) among the Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments; provided that (A) the sum of each Non-Defaulting Lender's total Revolving Credit Exposure and its Pro Rata Share of the L/C Exposure may not in any event exceed the Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation, and (B) neither such reallocation nor any payment by a Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant thereto will constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or any other Bank may have against such Defaulting Lender or cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender; and

	
(ii)

	
to the extent that any portion (the "unreallocated portion") of the Defaulting Lender's L/C Exposure cannot be so reallocated, whether by reason of proviso (A) in clause (i) above or otherwise, the Borrower will, not later than five Business Days after demand by the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the applicable Issuing Banks), (A) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to the applicable Issuing Banks in respect of such L/C Exposure in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated portion of such L/C Exposure or (B) make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and to the applicable Issuing Banks in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender.

	
(b)

	
Defaulting Lender Waterfall.  Any amount paid by the Borrower or otherwise received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) shall, in lieu of being paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be applied by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority:  first to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, second to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the applicable Issuing Banks (pro rata as to the respective amounts owing to each of them) under this Agreement, third if requested by an Issuing Bank, in the event and to the extent that the Borrower has not satisfied its obligations under Section 2.21(a)(ii), held in a segregated non-interest bearing account for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender in respect of any unreallocated portion of such Defaulting Lender's L/C Exposure, fourth, if such Defaulting Lender's Unused Revolving Credit Commitment has not been terminated pursuant to Section 2.21(f), to make any Revolving Credit Advance not made by such Defaulting Lender to the extent such Revolving Credit Advance was not made by the Non-Defaulting Lenders and fifth to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

	
(c)

	
Cash Collateral Call.  If any Bank becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, if any Letter of Credit is at the time outstanding, the applicable Issuing Bank may (except, in the case of a Defaulting Lender, to the extent the Commitments have been fully reallocated pursuant to Section 2.21(a)), by notice to the Borrower and such Defaulting Lender through the Administrative Agent, require the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to such Issuing Bank in respect of such Letter of Credit in amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender to be applied pro rata in respect thereof, or to make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and to such Issuing Bank in its sole discretion to protect it against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender.

	
(d)

	
Right to Give Drawdown Notices.  In furtherance of the foregoing, if any Bank becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, each Issuing Bank is hereby authorized by the Borrower (which authorization is irrevocable and coupled with an interest) to give, in its discretion, through the Administrative Agent, Notices of Revolving Credit Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02 in such amounts and in such times as may be required to (i) reimburse an unreimbursed drawing under any outstanding Letter of Credit and/or (ii) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit.

	
(e)

	
Fees.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Bank is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any fees accruing during such period pursuant to Section 2.04(a) and Section 2.04(b) (without prejudice to the rights of the Non-Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees).  In the event and to the extent that all or a portion of the L/C Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 2.21(a), the fees that would have accrued for the benefit of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(a) and Section 2.04(b) will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to such Non-Defaulting Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments; and to the extent that all or any portion of such L/C Exposure cannot be reallocated, such fees will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to the applicable Issuing Bank and the pro rata payment provisions of Section 2.15 will automatically be deemed adjusted to reflect the provisions of this Section.

	
(f)

	
Termination of Defaulting Lender Commitment.  The Borrower may terminate any Defaulting Lender's Unused Revolving Credit Commitment, and, if applicable, the unused amount of any Defaulting Lender's Letter of Credit Commitment upon not less than three Business Days' prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Banks thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section 2.21(b) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts), provided that neither such termination nor any other provision, or act taken by the Borrower, hereunder will be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or any Bank may have against such Defaulting Lender.

	
(g)

	
Replacement of Defaulting Lender.  The Borrower may require a Defaulting Lender to assign and delegate its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.18.

	
(h)

	
Cure.  If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the Issuing Banks agree in writing in their discretion that a Bank that is a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, 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 amounts then held in the segregated account referred to in Section 2.21(b)), such Bank will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par such portion of outstanding Advances of the other Banks and/or make such other adjustments as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Credit Exposure and L/C Exposure of the Banks to be on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Commitments, whereupon such Bank will cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will be a Non-Defaulting Lender (and the Revolving Credit Exposure and L/C Exposure of each Bank will automatically be adjusted on a prospective basis to reflect the foregoing); provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Bank 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 Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Bank's having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.22                          Extension of Maturity Date.

	
(a)

	
Requests for Extension.  The Borrower may, no more than once each calendar year, by notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Banks) given not earlier than 90 days and not later than 30 days prior to any annual anniversary of the Effective Date, request an extension of the Maturity Date then in effect hereunder (the "Existing Maturity Date") to the date that is one year after the then existing Maturity Date; provided that in no event shall the Maturity Date be extended pursuant to this Section 2.22 more than twice.

	
(b)

	
Bank Elections to Extend.  Each Bank, acting in its sole and individual discretion, shall, by notice to the Administrative Agent given not later than the date (the "Notice Date") that is 30 days after receipt of the Borrower's request for extension (or such later date as may be permitted by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent), advise the Administrative Agent whether or not such Bank agrees to such extension.  Each Bank that determines not to so extend its Maturity Date is herein referred to as a "Non-Extending Bank". Any Bank that does not so advise the Administrative Agent on or before the Notice Date shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Bank.  The election of any Bank to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Bank to so agree.

	
(c)

	
Notification by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of each  Bank's determination under this Section promptly after the Notice Date.

	
(d)

	
Removal or Replacement of Non-Extending Banks.  The Borrower shall have the right on or before the Existing Maturity Date to replace or remove each Non-Extending Bank as provided in Section 2.18.

	
(e)

	
Minimum Extension Requirement.  If (and only if) the total of the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Banks that have agreed so to extend their Maturity Date (the "Extending Banks") and the additional Revolving Credit Commitments of the Additional Banks shall be more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments, then the Maturity Date of each Extending Bank and of each Additional Bank shall be extended to the date that is one year after the Existing Maturity Date (except that, if such date is not a Business Day, such Maturity Date as so extended shall be the next preceding Business Day) and each such Additional Bank shall thereupon become a "Bank" for all purposes of this Agreement.

	
(f)

	
Conditions to Effectiveness of Extensions.  As a condition precedent to each extension, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party signed by a Responsible Officer and dated as of the effective date of such extension (i) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such extension, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article IV and the other Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the date thereof, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.22, the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01(f) and Section 4.01(g) shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to Section 5.01(d)(i) and Section 5.01(d)(ii), (B) no Default exists and (C) since the date of the most recently audited financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(d)(i), there has been no Material Adverse Change.

	
(g)

	
Repayment on Maturity Date.  On the Maturity Date of each Non-Extending Lender, the Borrower shall prepay any Advances outstanding on such date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.12) to the extent necessary to keep outstanding Loans ratable with any revised Pro Rata Shares of the respective Banks effective as of such date.  In addition, (i) if, after giving effect to the extension, the Utilized Commitment Amount as of such date exceeds an amount equal to the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall prepay Advances in an amount equal to such excess or (ii) if no Advances are outstanding at such time, pay to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the Administrative Agent's office, for deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account, an amount equal to such excess, to be held in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, including Section 2.06.  If any Issuing Bank is a Non-Extending Lender and any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank remains outstanding on such Issuing Bank's Maturity Date, (x) the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize each such Letter of Credit, or, if agreed by the Issuing Bank, make other arrangements with respect to each such Letter of Credit, satisfactory to such Issuing Bank and (y) such Issuing Bank shall continue to have the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to each such Letter of Credit, but shall have no further obligation to issue any Letters of Credit.

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and amounts payable under Article II) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;

Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Letter of Credit Fees) payable to the Banks and the Issuing Banks (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Banks and Issuing Banks) and amounts payable under Article II, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them;

 THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 7.01                          Appointment and Authority.  Each of the Banks and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints Citibank to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Banks and the Issuing Banks, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions.  It is understood and agreed that the use of the term "agent" herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

Section 7.02                          Duties of Administrative Agent; Exculpatory Provisions.

	
(a)

	
The Administrative Agent's duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are solely ministerial and administrative in nature and the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, but shall be required to act or refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written direction of the Required Banks (or such other number or percentage of the Banks as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates to liability, or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law.

	
(b)

	
The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Banks (or such other number or percentage of the Banks as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 6.01, Section 6.02 and Section 8.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or the event or events that give or may give rise to any Default unless and until the Borrower or any Bank shall have given notice to the Administrative Agent in writing describing such Default and such event or events.

	
(c)

	
Neither the Administrative Agent nor any member of the Agent's Group shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation or other information made or supplied in or in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the Information Memorandum, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith or the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of the information contained therein, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created hereunder or thereunder or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than (but subject to the foregoing clause (ii)) to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

	
(d)

	
Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall require the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties to carry out any "know your customer" or other checks in relation to any Person on behalf of any Bank and each Bank confirms to the Administrative Agent that it is solely responsible for any such checks it is required to carry out and that it may not rely on any statement in relation to such checks made by the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties.

Section 7.03                          Reliance by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of an Advance, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Bank or Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Bank or Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Bank or Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Advance or the issuance of such Letter of Credit.  The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 7.04                          Rights as a Bank.

	
(a)

	
The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Bank as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term "Bank" or "Banks" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.  Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Banks.

	
(b)

	
Each Bank understands that the Person serving as Administrative Agent, acting in its individual capacity, and its Affiliates (collectively, the "Agent's Group") are engaged in a wide range of financial services and businesses (including investment management, financing, securities trading, corporate and investment banking and research) (such services and businesses are collectively referred to in this Section 7.04(b) as "Activities") and may engage in the Activities with or on behalf of one or more of the Loan Parties or their respective Affiliates.  The Agent's Group may, in undertaking the Activities, engage in trading in financial products or undertake other investment businesses for its own account or on behalf of others (including the Loan Parties and their Affiliates and including holding, for its own account or on behalf of others, equity, debt and similar positions in the Borrower, another Loan Party or their respective Affiliates), including trading in or holding long, short or derivative positions in securities, loans or other financial products of one or more of the Loan Parties or their Affiliates.  Each Bank understands and agrees that in engaging in the Activities, the Agent's Group may receive or otherwise obtain information concerning the Loan Parties or their Affiliates (including information concerning the ability of the Loan Parties to perform their respective Obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) which information may not be available to the Banks that are not members of the Agent's Group.  None of the Administrative Agent nor any member of the Agent's Group shall have any duty to disclose to any Bank or use on behalf of the Banks, and shall not be liable for the failure to so disclose or use, any information about or derived from the Activities or otherwise (including any information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party) or to account for any revenue or profits obtained in connection with the Activities, except that the Administrative Agent shall deliver or otherwise make available to each Bank such documents as are expressly required by any Loan Document to be transmitted by the Administrative Agent to the Banks.

	
(c)

	
Each Bank further understands that there may be situations where members of the Agent's Group or their respective customers (including the Loan Parties and their Affiliates) either now have or may in the future have interests or take actions that may conflict with the interests of any one or more of the Banks (including the interests of the Banks hereunder and under the other Loan Documents).  Each Bank agrees that no member of the Agent's Group is or shall be required to restrict its activities as a result of the Person serving as Administrative Agent being a member of the Agent's Group, and that each member of the Agent's Group may undertake any Activities without further consultation with or notification to any Bank.  None of (i) this Agreement nor any other Loan Document, (ii) the receipt by the Agent's Group of information (including Information (as such term is used in Section 8.14)) concerning the Loan Parties or their Affiliates (including information concerning the ability of the Loan Parties to perform their respective Obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) nor (iii) any other matter shall give rise to any fiduciary, equitable or contractual duties (including any duty of trust or confidence) owing by the Administrative Agent or any member of the Agent's Group to any Bank including any such duty that would prevent or restrict the Agent's Group from acting on behalf of customers (including the Loan Parties or their Affiliates) or for its own account.

Section 7.05                          Bank Credit Decision.

	
(a)

	
Each Bank and Issuing Bank confirms to the Administrative Agent, each other Bank and Issuing Bank and each of their respective Related Parties that it (i) possesses (individually or through its Related Parties) such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable, without reliance on the Administrative Agent, any other Bank, any other Issuing Bank or any of their respective Related Parties, of evaluating the merits and risks (including tax, legal, regulatory, credit, accounting and other financial matters) of (A) entering into this Agreement, (B) making Advances and other extensions of credit hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (C) in taking or not taking actions hereunder and thereunder, (ii) is financially able to bear such risks and (iii) has determined that entering into this Agreement and making Advances and other extensions of credit hereunder and under the other Loan Documents is suitable and appropriate for it.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties.  Each such sub‐agent and the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and each such sub‐agent shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article VII and Section 8.04 (as though such sub-agents were the "Administrative Agent" under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

Section 7.07                          Resignation; Removal of Administrative Agent.

	
(a)

	
The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Banks, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Banks shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and not to be required if a Default or 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 Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within 20 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation  (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Banks) (the "Resignation Effective Date"), then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Banks and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Administrative Agent and shall have accepted such appointment within 10 days after expiration of said 20-day time period, the Required Banks shall, upon the request of the Borrower, appoint a successor in accordance with the second sentence of this subsection (a).  Whether or not a successor has been appointed, the resignation of the retiring Administrative Agent shall become effective on the 30th day following the date that it gives its notice of resignation.

	
(b)

	
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if at any time the Required Banks determine that the Person serving as Administrative Agent is (without taking into account any provision in the definition of "Defaulting Lender" requiring notice from the Administrative Agent or any other party) a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (v) of the definition thereof, the Required Banks (determined after giving effect to Section 8.01) may by notice to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and not to be required if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), appoint a replacement Administrative Agent hereunder.  Such removal will, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be effective on the earlier of (i) the date a replacement Administrative Agent is appointed and (ii) the date 30 Business Days after the giving of such notice by the Required Banks (regardless of whether a replacement Administrative Agent has been appointed) (the "Removal Effective Date").

	
(c)

	
With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (i) the retiring or removed 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 Banks or the Issuing Banks under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed 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 Bank and Issuing Bank directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Banks appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this paragraph.  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 removed Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.  The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.  After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent's resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 8.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed 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 or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

	
(d)

	
Any resignation by or removal of Citibank as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as an Issuing Bank.  Upon the acceptance of a successor's appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Issuing Bank, (b) the resigning Issuing Bank shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit of the resigning Issuing Bank, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangement satisfactory to the resigning Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the resigning Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

Section 7.08                          Joint Lead Arrangers, Joint Bookrunners, Syndication Agents, Documentation Agents.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no Joint Lead Arranger, Joint Bookrunner, Syndication Agent or Co-Documentation Agent shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Bank or an Issuing Bank hereunder.

Section 7.09                          Guarantee Matters.  Each of the Banks (including in its capacity as an Issuing Bank or a potential Issuing Bank, as applicable) irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, to release a Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.  Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Banks will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent's authority to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee pursuant to this Section 7.09.  In each case as specified in this Section 7.09, 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 release such Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 7.09.

Section 7.10                          Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Advance 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 Advances and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Banks, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Banks and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Banks and the Administrative Agent under Section 2.04 and Section 8.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

	
(b)

	
to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Bank and each Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Banks or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 2.04 and Section 8.04.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Bank and any Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Bank or Issuing Bank or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Bank in any such proceeding.

Section 8.03                          No Waiver; Remedies; Enforcement.  No failure on the part of any Bank or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.  The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies 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 Article VI for the benefit of all Banks and Issuing Banks; 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) each Issuing Bank from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as an Issuing Bank) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Bank from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 8.05 (subject to the terms of Section 2.15), or (d) any Bank 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 Banks shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article VI and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.15, any Bank may, with the consent of the Required Banks, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Banks.

(b)

	
The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the Banks, the Joint Lead Arrangers and their respective directors, officers, employees, affiliates, advisors, attorneys and agents (each, an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including fees and expenses of counsel) for which any of them may become liable or which may be incurred by or asserted against any of the Indemnified Parties by any Person (including the Loan Parties) in connection with or arising out of (i) any Loan Document or any other document or instrument delivered in connection herewith or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of any Advance or Letter of Credit or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or (iii) any investigation, litigation, or proceeding, whether or not any of the Indemnified Parties is a party thereto, related to or in connection with any of the foregoing or any Loan Document, including any transaction in which any proceeds of any Advance or Letter of Credit are applied, including in each of the foregoing cases, any such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense resulting from the negligence of any Indemnified Party, but excluding any such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense (A) sought to be recovered by any Indemnified Party to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party or (B) results from a dispute solely between or among Indemnified Parties which does not arise, directly or indirectly, from any act or omission of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or from any circumstance constituting a Default or Event of Default; provided that the foregoing clause (B) shall not limit the Borrower's obligation to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such.

	
(c)

	
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each party hereto agrees that it shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and any Indemnified Party, 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 Advance or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof, provided that, nothing in this Section 8.04(c) shall relieve the Borrower and its Subsidiaries of any obligation they may have to indemnify an Indemnified Party against special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against such Indemnified Party by a third party.

(a)

	
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in any other Loan Document or in any other document or instrument, no provision of any of the Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or in connection herewith is intended or shall be construed to require the payment or permit the collection of interest in excess of the maximum non-usurious rate permitted by applicable law.  Accordingly, if the transactions with any Bank contemplated hereby would be usurious under applicable law, if any, then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Note payable to such Bank, this Agreement or any other document or instrument, it is agreed as follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under applicable law that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received by such Bank under any Note payable to such Bank, this Agreement or any other document or instrument shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and any excess shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall, at the option of such Bank, be credited by such Bank on the principal amount of the indebtedness owed to such Bank by the Borrower or refunded by such Bank to the Borrower, and (ii) in the event that the maturity of any Note payable to such Bank is accelerated or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest under law applicable to such Bank may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law and excess interest, if any, to such Bank provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall, at the option of such Bank, be credited by such Bank on the principal amount of the indebtedness owed to such Bank by the Borrower or refunded by such Bank to the Borrower.  In determining whether or not the interest contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received by any Bank exceeds the maximum non-usurious rate permitted by applicable law, such determination shall be made, to the extent that doing so does not result in a violation of applicable law, by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading, in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of the loans hereunder, all interest at any time contracted for, taken, charged, received or reserved by such Bank in connection with such loans.

	
(b)

	
In the event that at any time the interest rate applicable to any Advance made by any Bank would exceed the maximum non-usurious rate allowed by applicable law, the rate of interest to accrue on the Advances by such Bank shall be limited to the maximum non-usurious rate allowed by applicable law, but shall accrue, to the extent permitted by law, on the principal amount of the Advances made by such Bank from time to time outstanding, if any, at the maximum non-usurious rate allowed by applicable law until the total amount of interest accrued on the Advances made by such Bank equals the amount of interest which would have accrued if the interest rates applicable to the Advances pursuant to Article II had at all times been in effect.  In the event that upon the final payment of the Advances made by any Bank and termination of the Commitment of such Bank, the total amount of interest paid to such Bank hereunder and under the Notes is less than the total amount of interest which would have accrued if the interest rates applicable to such Advances pursuant to Article II had at all times been in effect, then the Borrower agrees to pay to such Bank, to the extent permitted by law, an amount equal to the excess of (a) the lesser of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on such Advances if the maximum non-usurious rate allowed by applicable law had at all times been in effect or (ii) the amount of interest which would have accrued on such Advances if the interest rates applicable to such Advances pursuant to Article II had at all times been in effect over (b) the amount of interest otherwise accrued on such Advances in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 8.07                          Binding Effect.  This Agreement shall become effective as provided in Section 3.01 hereof and thereafter the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and each Bank and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each of the Banks and no Bank may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (a) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.08(a), Section 8.08(d), Section 8.08(g) or Section 2.18, (b) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.08(c) or (c) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 8.08(f) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 8.08(c) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Banks) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 8.08                          Assignments and Participations.

	
(a)

	
Assignments by Banks.  Any Bank may at any time 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 and the Advances 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 Bank's Commitment and the Advances at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Bank, an Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

	
(B)

	
in any case not described in subsection (a)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Advances outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Advances of the assigning Bank subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if "Trade Date" is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as of the Trade Date) shall be in increments of $1,000,000 and shall not be less than $10,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default exists under Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(e) has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

	
(ii)

	
Proportionate Amounts.  Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Advance or the Commitment assigned.

	
(iii)

	
Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (a)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

	
(A)

	
the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default exists under Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(e) at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Bank, an Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days after having received written notice thereof.

	
(B)

	
the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of any Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Bank with a Commitment, an Affiliate of such Bank or an Approved Fund with respect to such Bank; and

	
(C)

	
the consent of each Issuing Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment.

	
(iv)

	
Assignment and Acceptance.  The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided 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 Bank, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

	
(v)

	
No Assignment to Borrower.  No such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of the Borrower's Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

	
(vi)

	
No Assignment to Natural Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to a natural Person.

	
(vii)

	
No Assignment to Defaulting Lender.  No such assignment will be made to any Defaulting Lender or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Bank hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause.

	
(viii)

	
Certain Additional Payments.  In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment will be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment 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 Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each other Bank hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full Pro Rata Share of all Advances and participations in Letters of Credit.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder becomes effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest will 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 Section 8.08(b), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement, and the assigning Bank thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from is obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank shall cease to be a party thereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.12, Section 2.13, Section 2.14 and Section 8.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Bank's having been a Defaulting Lender.  Any assignment or transfer by a Bank of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Bank of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 8.08(c).

	
(b)

	
Register.  The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 8.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks and the Commitment of, and the principal amount (and stated interest) of the Revolving Credit Advances owing to, each Bank from time to time (the "Register").  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Banks shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed and delivered to it in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record such assignment in the Register.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Bank, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

	
(c)

	
Participations.  Any Bank 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 its Affiliates) (each a "Participant") in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment, the Advances owing to it and the Notes held by it); provided that (i) such Bank's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Bank shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Banks and the Issuing Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (iv) the terms of any such participation shall not restrict such Bank's ability to make any amendment or waiver of this Agreement or any Note or such Bank's ability to consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom without the approval of the Participant; provided that such participation may provide that such Bank will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso in Section 8.01(a) that affects such Participant.  The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.12, Section 2.13 and Section 2.14 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.14(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.14(g) shall be delivered to the participating Bank)) to the same extent as if it were a Bank and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 8.08(a); provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.13(e) and Section 2.18 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.13 or Section 2.14, with respect to any participation, than its participating Bank would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.  Each Bank that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower's request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.18 with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.05 as though it were a Bank, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.15 as though it were a Bank.  Each Bank 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 Advances or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the "Participant Register"); provided that no Bank 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) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Bank shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

	
(d)

	
Assignment by an Issuing Bank.  Each Issuing Bank may assign to an Eligible Assignee all of its rights and obligations under the undrawn portion of its Letter of Credit Commitment at any time; provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee and (ii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment.

	
(e)

	
Disclosure of Information.  Any Bank may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 8.08, disclose to the assignee or Participant or proposed assignee or Participant, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries furnished to such Bank by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or Participant or proposed assignee or Participant shall agree to comply with Section 8.14.

	
(f)

	
Certain Pledges.  Any Bank may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Bank, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that not such pledge or assignment shall release such Bank from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledge or assignee for such Bank as a party hereto.

	
(g)

	
Resignation as an Issuing Bank After Assignment or Replacement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time a Bank that is also an Issuing Bank assigns all of its Commitment and Advances pursuant to subsection (b) above or Section 2.18 hereof, such Issuing Bank may, upon 30 days' notice to the Borrower and the Banks, resign as an Issuing Bank.  In the event of any such resignation as an Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Banks (subject to the consent of the applicable Bank) one or more successor Issuing Banks hereunder.  The failure by the Borrower to appoint a successor Issuing Bank shall not affect the resignation of the resigning Issuing Bank.  Such resigning Issuing Bank shall retain all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an Issuing Bank and all obligations of the Borrower or any Bank under this Agreement with respect to any outstanding Letter of Credit (including the right to require the Banks to make Letter of Credit Advances or otherwise fund participations in Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.03(d)).  Upon the appointment of a successor Issuing Bank (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Issuing Bank, and (b) the successor Issuing Bank 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 resigning Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of such resigning Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

Section 8.09                          No Liability of Issuing Banks.  The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit.  Neither any Issuing Bank nor any of its officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for:  (a) the use that may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by such Issuing Bank against presentation of documents that do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to the Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit, except that the Borrower shall have a claim against such Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank shall be liable to the Borrower, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by the Borrower that the Borrower proves were caused by (i) such Issuing Bank's willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction in determining whether documents presented under any Letter of Credit comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit or (ii) such Issuing Bank's willful failure to make lawful payment under a Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a draft and certificates strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, such Issuing Bank 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.

Section 8.10                          Counterparts; Integration, Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.

	
(a)

	
Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

	
(b)

	
Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and any documents executed in connection therewith by facsimile or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart.

	
(c)

	
Electronic Execution of Assignments.  The words "execution," "signed," "signature," and words of like import in any Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Section 8.11                          Judgment.

	
(a)

	
If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.

	
(b)

	
The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to Administrative Agent or the Banks hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the "Judgment Currency") other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the "Agreement Currency"), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency.  If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank from the Borrower in the Foreign Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss.  If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank in such currency, Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

Section 8.12                          Governing Law.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Section 8.13                          Jurisdiction; Damages.

	
(a)

	
Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to commence, any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any other party hereto, or any Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such federal court.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

	
(b)

	
Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in Section 8.13(a) and any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding in any such court.

	
(c)

	
Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.02.  Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

	
(d)

	
Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

	
(e)

	
Each of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Banks hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any action or proceeding referred to in this Section 8.13 any exemplary or punitive damages.  The Borrower hereby further irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any action or proceeding referred to in this Section 8.13 any special or consequential damages.

Section 8.14                          Confidentiality.

	
(a)

	
Each of the Administrative Agent and each of the Banks agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (ii) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (iii) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party hereto, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document, any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder or any litigation or proceeding to which the Administrative Agent or any Bank or any of its respective Affiliates may be a party, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, (B) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) surety, reinsurer, guarantor or credit liquidity enhancer (or their advisors) to or in connection with any swap, derivative or other similar transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Obligations or to the Borrower and its obligations or to this Agreement or payments hereunder, (vii) on a confidential basis to (A) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or this Agreement or (B) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to this Agreement, (viii) with the consent of the Borrower or (ix) to the extent such Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (B) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Bank or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Loan Party.

For purposes of this Section, "Information" means all information received from a Loan Party or any of its respective Subsidiaries relating to a Loan Party or any of its respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Loan Party or any of its respective Subsidiaries, provided that, in the case of information received from a Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries after the Effective Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential.  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.

	
(b)

	
Treatment of Information.  (i) Certain of the Banks may enter into this Agreement and take or not take action hereunder or under the other Loan Documents on the basis of information that does not contain material non-public information with respect to any of the Loan Parties or their securities ("Restricting Information").  Other Banks may enter into this Agreement and take or not take action hereunder or under the other Loan Documents on the basis of information that may contain Restricting Information.  Each Bank acknowledges that United States federal and state securities laws prohibit any person from purchasing or selling securities on the basis of material, non-public information concerning the issuer of such securities or, subject to certain limited exceptions, from communicating such information to any other Person.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall, by making any Communications (including Restricting Information) available to a Bank, by participating in any conversations or other interactions with a Bank or otherwise, make or be deemed to make any statement with regard to or otherwise warrant that any such information or Communication does or does not contain Restricting Information nor shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties be responsible or liable in any way for any decision a Bank may make to limit or to not limit its access to Restricting Information.  In particular, none of the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties (A) shall have, and the Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and each of its Related Parties, hereby disclaims, any duty to ascertain or inquire as to whether or not a Bank has or has not limited its access to Restricting Information, such Bank's policies or procedures regarding the safeguarding of material, nonpublic information or such Bank's compliance with applicable laws related thereto or (B) shall have, or incur, any liability to any Loan Party or Bank or any of their respective Related Parties arising out of or relating to the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties providing or not providing Restricting Information to any Bank.

	
(ii)

	
Each Loan Party agrees that (A) all Communications it provides to the Administrative Agent intended for delivery to the Banks whether by posting to the Approved Electronic Platform or otherwise shall be clearly and conspicuously marked "PUBLIC" if such Communications do not contain Restricting Information which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word "PUBLIC" shall appear prominently on the first page thereof, (B) by marking Communications "PUBLIC," each Loan Party shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Banks to treat such Communications as either publicly available information or not material information (although, in this latter case, such Communications may contain sensitive business information and, therefore, remain subject to the confidentiality undertakings of this Section) with respect to such Loan Party or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws, (C) all Communications marked "PUBLIC" may be delivered to all Banks and may be made available through a portion of the Approved Electronic Platform designated "Public Side Information," and (D) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any Communications that are not marked "PUBLIC" as Restricting Information and may post such Communications to a portion of the Approved Electronic Platform not designated "Public Side Information."  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Affiliates shall be responsible for any statement or other designation by a Loan Party regarding whether a Communication contains or does not contain material non-public information with respect to any of the Loan Parties or their securities nor shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates incur any liability to any Loan Party, any Bank or any other Person for any action taken by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates based upon such statement or designation, including any action as a result of which Restricting Information is provided to a Bank that may decide not to take access to Restricting Information.  Nothing in this subsection (b) shall modify or limit a Bank's obligations under Section 8.14(a) with regard to Communications and the maintenance of the confidentiality of or other treatment of Information.

Each Bank acknowledges that circumstances may arise that require it to refer to Communications that might contain Restricting Information.  Accordingly, each Bank agrees that it will nominate at least one designee to receive Communications (including Restricting Information) on its behalf and identify such designee (including such designee's contact information) on such Bank's Administrative Questionnaire.  Each Bank agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time of such Bank's designee's e-mail address to which notice of the availability of Restricting Information may be sent by electronic transmission.

	
(d)

	
Each Bank acknowledges that Communications delivered hereunder and under the other Loan Documents may contain Restricting Information and that such Communications are available to all Banks generally.  Each Bank that elects not to take access to Restricting Information does so voluntarily and, by such election, acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent and other Banks may have access to Restricting Information that is not available to such electing Bank.  None of the Administrative Agent nor any Bank with access to Restricting Information shall have any duty to disclose such Restricting Information to such electing Bank or to use such Restricting Information on behalf of such electing Bank, and shall not be liable for the failure to so disclose or use, such Restricting Information.

	
(e)

	
The provisions of the foregoing subsections of this Section are designed to assist the Administrative Agent, the Banks and the Loan Parties, in complying with their respective contractual obligations and applicable law in circumstances where certain Banks express a desire not to receive Restricting Information notwithstanding that certain Communications hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or other information provided to the Banks hereunder or thereunder may contain Restricting Information.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties warrants or makes any other statement with respect to the adequacy of such provisions to achieve such purpose nor does the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties warrant or make any other statement to the effect that a Loan Party's or Bank's adherence to such provisions will be sufficient to ensure compliance by such Loan Party or Bank with its contractual obligations or its duties under applicable law in respect of Restricting Information and each of the Banks and each Loan Party assumes the risks associated therewith.

Section 8.15                          Patriot Act Notice.  Each Bank and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Bank) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.  The Borrower shall provide, upon request by the Administrative Agent or any Bank, such documentation or other information as the Administrative Agent or such Bank requests in order to assist the Administrative Agent and such Bank in maintaining compliance under any applicable "know your customer" and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act.

Section 8.16                          Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).  EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Section 8.17                          Substitution of Currency.  If a change in any Committed Foreign Currency occurs pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation of any governmental, monetary or multi-national authority, this Agreement will be amended to the extent determined by an Issuing Bank to be necessary to reflect the change in currency and to put such Issuing Bank and the Borrower in the same position, so far as possible, that they would have been in if no change in such Committed Foreign Currency had occurred.

Section 8.18                          No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.  In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (i)(A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, and the Banks are arm's-length commercial transactions between such Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, and the Banks, on the other hand, (B) such Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) such Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii)(A) the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Banks each is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for such Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger nor any Bank has any obligation to any Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Banks, and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of such Borrower and its Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger, nor any Bank has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to such Borrower or its Affiliates.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, each hereby waivers and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Banks with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

Section 8.19                          Amendment and Restatement.  This Agreement amends and restates the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety but shall not be deemed a novation thereof.  Any Notes delivered pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement shall continue to evidence Loans under this Agreement and shall constitute "Notes" as defined herein, and all references to the Existing Credit Agreement contained therein shall mean this Agreement as it may be further amended and/or restated from time to time.  In the event that any Loans are outstanding on the Closing Date, the Banks who are parties to the Existing Credit Agreement (the "Existing Banks") hereby waive any advance notice of prepayment required pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement, and to the extent that Schedule I attached to this Agreement reflects a reduction in the amount of any Existing Bank's Commitment as shown on Schedule I as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date, to the extent that the Existing Credit Agreement requires advance notice of such reduction and/or requires that Commitment reductions be pro rata among Existing Banks, the undersigned Banks who are Existing Banks waive such requirements.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, as of the date first above written.

The Borrower promises to pay to the Bank or its registered assigns interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Advance and Letter of Credit Advance from the date of such Revolving Credit Advance or Letter of Credit Advance, as the case may be, until such principal amount is paid in full, at such interest rates, and payable at such times, as are specified in the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement, among other things, (i) provides for the making of advances (variously, the Revolving Credit Advances or the Letter of Credit Advances) by the Bank to or for the benefit of the Borrower from time to time in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the U.S. dollar amount first above mentioned, the indebtedness of the Borrower resulting from each such Revolving Credit Advance and Letter of Credit Advance being evidenced by this Promissory Note, and (ii) contains provisions for acceleration of the maturity hereof upon the happening of certain stated events and also for prepayments on account of principal hereof prior to the maturity hereof upon the terms and conditions therein specified.

This Promissory Note shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Exhibit A - Guarantee Supplement

AMENDED AND RESTATED SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE

AMENDED AND RESTATED SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE dated as of September 25, 2015 (this "Guarantee") made by the Persons listed on the signature pages hereof under the caption "Subsidiary Guarantors" and the Additional Guarantors (as defined in Section 8(b) (such Persons so listed and the Additional Guarantors being, collectively, the "Guarantors" and, individually, each a "Guarantor") in favor of the Lender Parties (as defined below).

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT.  KBR, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), has entered into an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of September 25, 2015 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Revolving Credit Agreement") with the Banks party thereto (the "Revolving Credit Banks" and each, individually, a "Revolving Credit Bank") and Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the "Administrative Agent" and, together with the Revolving Credit Banks, the "Lender Parties").  Each Guarantor may receive, directly or indirectly, a portion of the proceeds of the Advances under the Revolving Credit Agreement and will derive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the transactions contemplated by the Revolving Credit Agreement.  It is a condition precedent to the making of Advances and the issuance of Letters of Credit by the Revolving Credit Banks under the Revolving Credit Agreement that each Guarantor shall have executed and delivered this Guarantee.  Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall be used herein as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement.

Reference is made to that certain Subsidiary Guarantee dated as of December 2, 2011, executed by the Guarantors in favor of the Lender Parties (as defined therein) (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Existing Guarantee").  This Guarantee amends and restates the Existing Guarantee in its entirety.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and in order to induce the Revolving Credit Banks to make Advances and issue Letters of Credit under the Revolving Credit Agreement, each Guarantor, jointly and severally with each other Guarantor, hereby agrees with the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lender Parties as follows:

	
Section 1.

	
Guarantee; Limitation of Liability.

	
(a)

	
Each Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at scheduled maturity or on any date of a required prepayment or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, and the punctual performance of, all Obligations of each other Loan Party now or hereafter existing under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any extensions, modifications, substitutions, amendments or renewals of any or all of the foregoing Obligations), whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, interest, premiums, fees, indemnities, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise (such Obligations being the "Guaranteed Obligations"), and agrees to pay any and all out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by any Lender Party in enforcing any rights under this Guarantee or any other Loan Document.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor's liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any other Loan Party to any Lender Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such other Loan Party.

	
(b)

	
Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of this Guarantee, the Administrative Agent and each other Lender Party, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guarantee and the Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Debtor Relief Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this Guarantee and the Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder.  To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Administrative Agent, the other Lender Parties and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the Obligations of each Guarantor under this Guarantee at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Obligations of such Guarantor under this Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

	
(c)

	
Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to any Lender Party under this Guarantee, such Guarantor will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by law, such amounts to each other Guarantor so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Lender Parties (up to the amount of the payment so  required to be made) under or in respect of the Loan Documents.

Section 2.                          Guarantee Absolute.  This is a guarantee of payment and not of collection.  Each Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Lender Party with respect thereto.  The Obligations of each Guarantor under or in respect of this Guarantee are those of primary obligor, and not merely as surety, and are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor to enforce this Guarantee, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Company or any other Loan Party or whether the Company or any other Loan Party is joined in any such action or actions.  The liability of each Guarantor under this Guarantee shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following:

	
(a)

	
any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;

	
(b)

	
any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise;

	
(c)

	
any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral or any other collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any other guarantee, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

	
(d)

	
any manner of application of any collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other Disposition of any collateral for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any Loan Party under the Loan Documents or any other assets of any Loan Party or any of its subsidiaries;

	
(e)

	
any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Loan Party or any of its subsidiaries;

	
(f)

	
any failure of any Lender Party to disclose to any Loan Party any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties, contingent liabilities, material agreements or prospects of any other Loan Party now or hereafter known to such Lender Party (each Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of the Lender Parties to disclose such information);

	
(g)

	
the failure of any other Person to execute or deliver this Guarantee, any Guarantee Supplement (as hereinafter defined) or any other guarantee or agreement or the release or reduction of liability of any Guarantor or other guarantor or surety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; or

	
(h)

	
any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by any Lender Party that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party or any other guarantor or surety.

This Guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Lender Party or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or any other Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

	
Section 3.

	
Waivers and Acknowledgments.

	
(a)

	
Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, presentment, demand for performance, notice of nonperformance, default, acceleration, protest or dishonor and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guarantee and any requirement that any Lender Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against any Loan Party or any other Person or any Collateral.

	
(b)

	
Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guarantee and acknowledges that until the Guarantee Termination Date (as defined in Section 14 hereof) this Guarantee is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future.

	
(c)

	
Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives (i) any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by any Lender Party that in any manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects the subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification rights of such Guarantor or other rights of such Guarantor to proceed against any of the other Loan Parties, any other guarantor or any other Person or any collateral and (ii) any defense based on any right of set-off or counterclaim against or in respect of the Obligations of such Guarantor hereunder.

	
(d)

	
Each Guarantor acknowledges that the Administrative Agent may, except as otherwise required by non-waivable provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of New York or other, non-waivable provisions of applicable law, without notice to or demand upon such Guarantor and without affecting the liability of such Guarantor under this Guarantee, foreclose under any mortgage by non-judicial sale, and each Guarantor hereby waives any defense to the recovery by the Administrative Agent and the other Lender Parties against such Guarantor of any deficiency after such non-judicial sale and any defense or benefits that may be afforded by applicable law.

	
(e)

	
Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any duty on the part of any Lender Party to disclose to such Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties, contingent liabilities, material agreements or prospects of any other Loan Party or any of its subsidiaries now or hereafter known by such Lender Party.

	
(f)

(b)

	
Each Guarantor hereby also agrees that none of the Indemnified Parties shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to any of the Guarantors or any of their respective Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors, and each Guarantor hereby agrees not to assert any claim against any Indemnified Party on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Loan Documents, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances or the Letters of Credit, the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.

	
(c)

	
Without prejudice to the survival of any of the other agreements of any Guarantor under this Guarantee or any of the other Loan Documents, the agreements and obligations of each Guarantor contained in Section 1(a) (with respect to enforcement expenses), the last sentence of Section 2, Section 5 and this Section 12 shall survive the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and all of the other amounts payable under this Guarantee.

Section 13.                          Subordination.  Each Guarantor hereby subordinates any and all debts, liabilities and other Obligations owed to such Guarantor by each other Loan Party (the "Subordinated Obligations") to the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Section 13:

	
(a)

	
Prohibited Payments, Etc.  Except during the continuance of an Event of Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law relating to any other Loan Party), each Guarantor may receive payments from any other Loan Party on account of the Subordinated Obligations.  After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law relating to any Loan Party), however, unless the Administrative Agent otherwise agrees, no Guarantor shall demand, accept or take any action to collect any payment on account of the Subordinated Obligations.

	
(b)

	
Prior Payment of Guaranteed Obligations.  In any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law relating to any other Loan Party, each Guarantor agrees that the Lender Parties shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations (including all interest and expenses accruing after the commencement of a proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, whether or not constituting an allowed claim in such proceeding ("Post Petition Interest")) before such Guarantor receives payment of any Subordinated Obligations.

	
(c)

	
Turn-Over.  After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law relating to any other Loan Party), each Guarantor shall, if the Administrative Agent so requests, use commercially reasonable efforts to collect, enforce and receive payments on account of the Subordinated Obligations as trustee for the Lender Parties and deliver such payments to the Administrative Agent on account of the Guaranteed Obligations (including all Post Petition Interest), together with any necessary endorsements or other instruments of transfer, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guarantee.

	
(d)

	
Administrative Agent's Authorization.  After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law relating to any other Loan Party), the Administrative Agent is authorized and empowered (but without any obligation to so do), in its discretion, (i) in the name of each Guarantor, to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, Subordinated Obligations and to apply any amounts received thereon to the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Post Petition Interest), and (ii) to require each Guarantor (A) to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, Subordinated Obligations and (B) to pay any amounts received on such obligations to the Administrative Agent for application to the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Post Petition Interest).

Section 14.                          Continuing Guarantee; Assignments under the Revolving Credit Agreement.  This Guarantee is a continuing guarantee and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the later of the following (the "Guarantee Termination Date"): (i) the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guarantee, (ii) the Termination Date and (iii) the latest date of expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit or when such Letters of Credit have been fully cash collateralized; (b) be binding upon the Guarantor, its successors and assigns; and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Lender Parties and their successors, permitted transferees and permitted assigns.  Without limiting the generality of clause (c) of the immediately preceding sentence, any Lender Party may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitments, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender Party herein or otherwise, in each case as and to the extent provided in Section 8.08 of the Revolving Credit Agreement.  No Guarantor shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lender Parties.

Section 15.                          Joint and Several Obligations.  Each Guarantor acknowledges that (i) this Guarantee is a master Guarantee pursuant to which other Subsidiaries of the Borrower now or hereafter may become parties, and (ii) the guaranty obligations of each of the Guarantors hereunder are joint and several.

Section 16.                          Execution in Counterparts.  This Guarantee and each amendment, waiver and consent with respect hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties thereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Guarantee by facsimile or electronic mail in "Portable Document Format" (PDF)  shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Guarantee.

	
Section 17.

	
Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial, Etc.

	
(a)

	
This Guarantee shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

	
(b)

	
Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to commence, any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Administrative Agent, any Bank, any Issuing Bank, or any other Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Guarantee or any other Loan Document to which it is or is to be a party or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such federal court.  Each Guarantor agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. 

	
(c)

	
Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, (i) any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guarantee or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is or is to be a party in any New York State or federal court, (ii) the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit, action or proceeding in any such court, and (iii) any right it may have to claim or recover in any action or proceeding referred to in this Section 17 any exemplary or punitive damages or any special or consequential damages.

	
(d)

	
Each Guarantor irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.02 of the Revolving Credit Agreement.  Nothing in this Guarantee will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

	
(e)

	
EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE ADVANCES OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY LENDER PARTY IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.  EACH GUARANTOR (I) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (II) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT, THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANKS AND THE BANKS HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS GUARANTEE AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Guarantee Supplement by facsimile or electronic mail in "Portable Document Format" (PDF) shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Guarantee Supplement.

(b)            The undersigned irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to commence, any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Administrative Agent, any Bank, any Issuing Bank, or any other Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Guarantee Supplement, the Subsidiary Guarantee or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is or is to be a party or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such federal court.  The undersigned agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. 

(c)            The undersigned irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, (i) any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guarantee Supplement, the Subsidiary Guarantee or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is or is to be a party in any New York State or federal court, (ii) the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit, action or proceeding in any such court, and (iii) any right it may have to claim or recover in any action or proceeding referred to in this Section 5 any exemplary or punitive damages or any special or consequential damages.

During the Commitment Period the Company may use the Commitments by borrowing, prepaying the Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.

Each Bank is hereby authorized to record the date, Type, currency and amount of each Loan made by such Bank, each continuation thereof, each conversion of all or a portion thereof to another Type, the date and amount of each payment or prepayment of principal thereof and, in the case of LIBOR Loans, the length of each Interest Period with respect thereto, on the schedule annexed to and constituting a part of its Note, and any such recordation shall constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded; provided that the failure of any Bank to make any such recordation (or any error in such recordation) shall not affect the obligations of the Company hereunder or under any Note in respect of the Loans.  Each Note shall (i) be dated the Closing Date, (ii) be stated to mature on the Termination Date (as the same may be extended as

Each borrowing under the Commitments shall be in a Dollar Amount equal to (x) in the case of Base Rate Loans, $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or, if the then Available Commitments are less than $5,000,000, such lesser amount) or (y) in the case of LIBOR Loans, $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.  Upon receipt of a Borrowing Certificate, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank thereof.
(b)    Each Bank will make the amount of its pro rata share of each borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Company at the applicable office of the Administrative Agent specified in subsection 9.2 or such other office specified by the Administrative Agent from time to time prior to (i) 2:30 p.m. in the case of Base Rate Loans or 12:00 noon in the case of LIBOR Loans denominated in Dollars or (ii) the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of any Foreign Currency Loan, in each case on the Borrowing Date requested by the Company in Dollars or the applicable Foreign Currency and in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent.  Such borrowing will then be made available to the Company by the Administrative Agent crediting the account of the Company on the books of such office with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Banks and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.
2.4    Fees.
(a)    The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Bank, a facility fee for the period from and including the Closing Date through and including the Termination Date applicable to such Bank, calculated as an amount equal to the product of (i) the Facility Fee Rate and (ii) the average daily amount of the 

24

Commitment of such Bank (regardless of usage) during the period for which such facility fee is calculated, payable in arrears on the last day of each December, March, June and September (for the quarterly period ended on such date) and on the Termination Date applicable to such Bank or such earlier date on which the Commitments shall terminate as provided herein (for the period from the last quarterly payment date to the applicable Termination Date or such other date, as applicable).  Such payments shall commence on December 31, 2015, and such first payment shall be for the period from the Closing Date through December 31, 2015.
(b)    The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agents and the Lead Arrangers for their own account, as the case may be, the fees in the respective amounts and at the respective times set forth in the Fee Letters.
(c)    In consideration of the LOC Commitments, the Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans per annum on the average daily maximum amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit from the date of issuance to the date of expiration.  The Letter of Credit Fee shall be payable for the ratable benefit of each Bank (including the Issuing Lenders) quarterly in arrears on the last day of each December, March, June and September (for the quarterly period ended on such date) and on the Termination Date applicable to such Bank.  Such payments shall commence on December 31, 2015, and such first payment shall be for the period from the Closing Date through December 31, 2015.
(d)    In addition to the Letter of Credit Fees payable pursuant to subsection 2.4(c), the Company shall pay to each Issuing Lender for its own account without sharing by the other Banks the reasonable and customary charges from time to time of such Issuing Lender with respect to the amendment, transfer, administration, cancellation and conversion of, and drawings under, such Letters of Credit (collectively, the “Issuing Lender Fees”).  Each Issuing Lender may charge, and retain for its own account without sharing by the other Banks, an additional facing fee (the “Letter of Credit Facing Fee”) in the amount per annum specified in its Fee Letter with the Company on the average daily maximum amount available to be drawn under each such Letter of Credit issued by it.  The Letter of Credit Facing Fee shall be payable for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender quarterly in arrears on the last day of each December, March, June and September (for the quarterly period ended on such date), on the Termination Date applicable to such Issuing Lender and thereafter on demand until all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender have been canceled or terminated.
2.5    Termination or Reduction of Commitments.  The Company shall have the right, upon not less than five Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Commitments; provided that no such termination or reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Loans made on the effective date thereof, the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of the Loans and LOC Obligations 

25

then outstanding would exceed the Commitments then in effect; provided further that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Company may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of proceeds from the issuance of other Indebtedness, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.  Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank thereof.  Any reduction of the Commitments made in accordance with this subsection 2.5 shall be in an amount equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, shall be applied to the Commitment of each Lender according to its Commitment Percentage and shall reduce permanently the Commitments then in effect.
2.6    Prepayments.
(a)    Subject to subsection 2.16, the Company may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent given prior to 10:00 a.m. at least three Business Days in advance in the case of LIBOR Loans and on the requested prepayment date in the case of Base Rate Loans, specifying the date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of LIBOR Loans (identifying the applicable Tranche or Tranches), Base Rate Loans or a combination thereof, and, if of a combination thereof, the amount allocable to each.  Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank thereof.  If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.  Partial prepayments shall be in an aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.  
(b)    If at any time after the Closing Date, (i) the sum of the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of outstanding Loans and LOC Obligations shall exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments at such time or (ii) the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of Loans that are Foreign Currency Loans outstanding to the Company exceeds $250,000,000, then, in each case, the Loans shall be prepaid in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess within one Business Day following the Company’s receipt of notice thereof.
(c)    No prepayment under this subsection 2.6 shall result in the reduction of any Commitments unless otherwise effected pursuant to subsection 2.5.
2.7    Conversion and Continuation Options.
(a)    The Company may elect from time to time to convert Loans that are LIBOR Loans denominated in Dollars to Base Rate Loans, by giving the Administrative Agent at least two Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election; provided that any such conversion of LIBOR Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto.

Any such notice of conversion to LIBOR Loans shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods therefor.  Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank thereof.  All or any part of outstanding LIBOR Loans denominated in Dollars and Base Rate Loans may be converted as provided herein; provided that (i) no Loan may be converted into a LIBOR Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Majority Banks have determined to not permit such a conversion; (ii) any such conversion may only be made if, after giving effect thereto, subsection 2.8 shall not have been contravened; and (iii) no Loan may be converted into a LIBOR Loan after the date that is one month prior to the final Termination Date.
(b)    Any Loans that are LIBOR Loans may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Company giving at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in subsection 1.1, of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans; provided that no LIBOR Loan may be continued as such (i) when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Majority Banks have determined to not permit such a continuation; (ii) if, after giving effect thereto, subsection 2.8 would be contravened; or (iii) after the date that is one month prior to the final Termination Date.  Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank thereof.
(c)    Unless otherwise agreed to by the Majority Banks, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, all Foreign Currency Loans then outstanding shall be exchanged into Dollars (based on the Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of such Foreign Currency Loans on the date of redenomination) on the last day of the then current Interest Periods of such Foreign Currency Loans; provided that in each case the Company shall be liable for any currency exchange loss related to such payments and shall promptly pay to each Bank upon receipt of notice thereof by the Company from such Bank the amount of any such loss incurred by such Bank.
2.8    Minimum Amounts of Tranches.  All borrowings, conversions and continuations of Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Loans comprising each LIBOR Tranche shall be equal to a Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of at least $5,000,000 and, solely with respect to Loans denominated in Dollars, in a whole multiple of $1,000,000.
2.9    Interest Rates and Payment Dates.
(a)    Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Base Rate.

27

(b)    Each Loan that is a LIBOR Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period.
(c)     (i) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto plus 2%; and (ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or any fee or other amount payable hereunder or under any Note or Fee Letter shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Base Rate plus 2%; in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment).
(d)    Interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided that interest accruing pursuant to subsection 2.9(c) shall be payable on demand.
(e)    Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of interest to any Bank at a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.  If the amount of interest payable for the account of any Bank on any interest payment date would exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to be charged by such Bank, the amount of interest payable for its account on such interest payment date shall be automatically reduced to such maximum permissible amount.  In the event of any such reduction affecting any Bank, if from time to time thereafter the amount of interest payable for the account of such Bank on any interest payment date would be less than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to be charged by such Bank, then the amount of interest payable for its account on such subsequent interest payment date shall be automatically increased to such maximum permissible amount; provided that at no time shall the aggregate amount by which interest paid for the account of any Bank has been increased pursuant to this sentence exceed the aggregate amount by which interest paid for its account has theretofore been reduced pursuant to the previous sentence.
2.10    Computation of Interest and Fees.
(a)    Interest on Base Rate Loans (whenever it is calculated on the basis of Citibank’s base rate) and interest on Foreign Currency Loans denominated in Pounds Sterling shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed; otherwise, interest and fees shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed.  The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Company and the Banks of each determination of a LIBOR Rate and of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent to provide the Company or the Banks with any such notice shall neither affect any obligations of the Company or the 

28

Banks hereunder nor result in any liability on the part of the Administrative Agent to the Company or any Bank.
(b)    Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement (including each determination of the Reserve Requirement) shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and the Banks in the absence of demonstrable error.  The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Company, deliver to the Company a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to subsection 2.9(a) or 2.9(b).
2.11    Inability to Determine Interest Rate.  In the event that prior to the first day of any Interest Period:
(a)    the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Company) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period, or
(b)    the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Banks that the LIBOR Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks (as conclusively certified by such Banks) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,
then the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic (confirmed in writing) notice thereof to the Company and the Banks as soon as practicable thereafter.  If such notice is given (w) all affected Foreign Currency Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made, at the sole option of the Company, in Dollars as Base Rate Loans or such request shall be cancelled, (x) all LIBOR Loans denominated in Dollars requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Base Rate Loans, (y) all Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to LIBOR Loans shall be converted to or continued as Base Rate Loans in Dollars and (z) all Loans that pursuant to subsection 2.7(b) were to have been continued on the first day of such Interest Period as LIBOR Loans shall be converted to Base Rate Loans in Dollars.  Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent or the Majority Banks, as the case may be, no further LIBOR Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Company have the right to convert Loans to LIBOR Loans.
2.12    Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.
(a)    Each borrowing of Loans and any reduction of the Commitments shall be made pro rata according to the respective Commitment Percentages of the Banks (except as otherwise provided in subsection 2.25).  Unless otherwise required by the terms of this Agreement, each payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents shall be applied, first, to any fees then due and owing by the Company pursuant to subsection 2.4, second, to interest then due and owing in respect of the Loans of the 

29

Company, third, to principal then due and owing hereunder and under the Notes of the Company, and, fourth, to any other amounts then due and owing under the Loan Documents.  Each payment on account of any fees pursuant to subsection 2.4 for the account of Banks shall be made pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts due and owing (except as to the Letter of Credit Facing Fee and the Issuing Lender Fees).  Each payment by the Company on account of principal of and interest on the Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective amounts due and owing.  Without limiting the terms of the preceding sentence, accrued interest on any Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency shall be payable in the same Foreign Currency as such Loan.  Payments made pursuant to subsection 2.13 shall be applied in accordance with such section.  All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Company on account of principal, interest and fees shall be made without defense, set-off or counterclaim (except as provided in subsection 2.15) and shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Banks at the Administrative Agent’s office specified in subsection 9.2 or such other office specified by the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds and (i) in the case of Loans or other amounts denominated in Dollars, shall be made in Dollars not later than 12:00 noon on the date when due and (ii) in the case of Loans or other amounts denominated in a Foreign Currency, unless otherwise specified herein, shall be made in such Foreign Currency not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the date when due.  Any payment received after the foregoing deadlines shall be deemed received on the next Business Day.  The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Banks entitled thereto promptly upon receipt in like funds as received.  If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension; provided, however, that with respect to any LIBOR Loan to which clause (A) of the definition of “Interest Period” applies, such payment shall be the next preceding Business Day.
(b)    Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, after the exercise of remedies by the Administrative Agent or the Banks pursuant to Section 7 (or after the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts under the Loan Documents (including the maximum amount of all contingent liabilities under Letters of Credit) shall automatically become due and payable in accordance with the terms of such Section), all amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent or any Bank on account of the Obligations or any other amounts outstanding under any of the Loan Documents shall be paid over or delivered as follows:
FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of the Administrative Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Banks under the Loan Documents;
SECOND, to the payment of any fees owed to the Administrative Agent;

30

THIRD, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of each of the Banks in connection with enforcing its rights under the Loan Documents or otherwise with respect to the Obligations owing to such Bank;
FOURTH, to the payment of all of the Obligations consisting of accrued fees and interest;
FIFTH, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations and the payment or Cash Collateralization of the outstanding LOC Obligations;
SIXTH, to all other Obligations and other obligations which shall have become due and payable under the Loan Documents or otherwise and not repaid pursuant to clauses “FIRST” through “FIFTH” above; and
SEVENTH, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.
In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category; (ii) each of the Banks shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share (based on such Bank’s proportion of the amount owing under such clause) of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses “THIRD”, “FOURTH”, “FIFTH” and “SIXTH” above; and (iii) to the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause “FIFTH” above are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit, such amounts shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a cash collateral account and applied (A) first, to reimburse the Issuing Lenders from time to time for any drawings under such Letters of Credit and (B) then, following the expiration of all Letters of Credit, to all other obligations of the types described in clauses “FIFTH” and “SIXTH” above in the manner provided in this subsection 2.12(b).
(c)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank, prior to the proposed time of any borrowing, that such Bank will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Bank’s share of such borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made such share available on such date in accordance with subsection 2.3(b) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company a corresponding amount.  In such event, if a Bank has not in fact made its share of the applicable borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Bank and the Company severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Company to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Bank, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Company, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.  If the Company and such Bank shall pay such 

31

interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Company the amount of such interest paid by the Company for such period.  If such Bank pays its share of the applicable borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Bank’s Loan included in such borrowing.  Any payment by the Company shall be without prejudice to any claim the Company may have against a Bank that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.
(d)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Company prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Bank or the Issuing Lenders hereunder that the Company will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Company has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Banks or the Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if the Company has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Banks or the Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Bank or Issuing Lender, 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.
2.13    Illegality.
(a)    Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Bank to make or maintain LIBOR Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, such Bank shall forthwith so notify the Administrative Agent and the Company.  Upon such notice, (i) the commitment of such Bank hereunder to make LIBOR Loans, continue LIBOR Loans as such and convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans shall forthwith be cancelled and (ii) such Bank’s Loans then outstanding as LIBOR Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law.  If any such conversion of a LIBOR Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Company shall pay to such Bank such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to subsection 2.16.
(b)    Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if there shall have occurred any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions (including the imposition of or any change in exchange controls) or currency exchange rates that would make it unlawful or impossible for any Bank to make Loans denominated in any Foreign Currency to the Company, as contemplated by this Agreement, such Bank shall forthwith so notify the Administrative Agent and the 

32

Company.  Upon such notice, (i) the commitment of such Bank hereunder to make Foreign Currency Loans shall forthwith be cancelled and (ii) such Bank’s Loans then outstanding as Foreign Currency Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars.  If any conversion of a Foreign Currency Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Company shall pay to such Bank such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to subsection 2.16.
2.14    Requirements of Law.
(a)    If any Change in Law shall:
(i)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Bank (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBOR Rate) or any Issuing Lender;
(ii)    subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes and Taxes described in any of clauses (i) through (iv) of the definition of Excluded 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 Bank or any Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Bank or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Bank 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 Bank, such Issuing Lender 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 Bank, Issuing Lender or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon written request of such Bank, Issuing Lender or other Recipient, setting forth the calculations thereof in reasonable detail, the Company will pay to such Bank, Issuing Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank, Issuing Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b)    If any Bank or Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Bank or Issuing Lender or any lending office of such Bank or such Bank’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Bank’s or Issuing 

33

Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Bank’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Bank or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Bank, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Bank or Issuing Lender or such Bank’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Bank’s or Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Bank’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Company will pay to such Bank or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank or Issuing Lender or such Bank’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c)    A certificate of a Bank or Issuing Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Bank or Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection 2.14(a) or 2.14(b) and delivered to the Company, shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.  The Company shall pay such Bank or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.
(d)    Failure or delay on the part of any Bank or Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this subsection 2.14 shall not constitute a waiver of such Bank’s or Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Company shall not be required to compensate a Bank or Issuing Lender pursuant to this subsection 2.14 for any increased costs, requirements, Taxes or expenses incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Bank or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Bank’s or Issuing Lender’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).
2.15    Taxes.
(a)    Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Company under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law.  If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Company shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this subsection 2.15) the applicable 

34

Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(b)    The Company 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.
(c)    The Company shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this subsection 2.15) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided that the Company shall not be required to indemnify a Recipient for such Taxes or expenses resulting from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach in bad faith of such Recipient, including as a result of a failure by the Administrative Agent to remit to the appropriate Governmental Authority any amounts paid over by the Company pursuant to this subsection 2.15.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Company by a Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Bank, shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.
(d)    Each Bank shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Bank (but only to the extent that the Company has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Company to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Bank’s failure to comply with the provisions of subsection 9.6(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Bank, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Bank by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.  Each Lender Bank authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Bank under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Bank from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this subsection 2.15(d).
(e)    As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Company to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this subsection 2.15, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such 

35

payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(f)    (i)    Any Bank 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 Company and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Bank, if reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Company or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Bank 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 this subsection 2.15(f)(ii)(A), 2.15(f)(ii)(B) or 2.15(f)(ii)(D)) shall not be required if in the Bank’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Bank to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Bank.
(ii)    So long as the Company is a U.S. Person:
(A)    any Bank that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Bank is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(B)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Company 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 Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(1)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing 

36

an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(2)    executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(3)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Company 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
(4)    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, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 or Exhibit G-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Company 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 Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company 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 U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Company or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)    if a payment made to a Bank under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Bank 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 Bank shall deliver to the 

37

Company and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company 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 Company or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Bank has complied with such Bank’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this subsection 2.15(f)(ii)(D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Each Bank agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(g)    If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund (including, for the avoidance of doubt, benefits received solely in lieu of receiving a cash refund) of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to subsection 2.14(a)(ii) or this subsection 2.15 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this subsection 2.15), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under subsection 2.14(a)(ii) or this subsection 2.15 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this subsection 2.15(g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection 2.15(g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection 2.15(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 Taxes subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts in respect of such Tax had never been paid.  This subsection 2.15(g) 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)    Each party’s obligations under this subsection 2.15 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Bank, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, 

38

satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.  For purposes of this Section 2.15, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
2.16    Indemnity.  The Company agrees to indemnify each Bank and to hold each Bank harmless from any loss or expense that such Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) default by the Company in payment when due of the principal amount of or interest on any LIBOR Loan, (ii) default by the Company in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of LIBOR Loans after the Company has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (iii) default by the Company in making any prepayment of LIBOR Loans after the Company has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (iv) the making of a prepayment or conversion, or the purchase pursuant to subsection 2.17, of LIBOR Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, including, in each case, any such loss (other than non-receipt of the Applicable Margin or, without duplication, anticipated profits) or expense arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by it or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained (it being understood that any such calculation will be made on notional amounts as the Banks are not required to show that they matched deposits specifically).  A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection submitted by such Bank, through the Administrative Agent, to the Company in good faith shall be conclusive in the absence of demonstrable error.  This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
2.17    Action of Affected Banks.
(a)    If any Bank provides a notice under subsection 2.13, requests compensation under subsection 2.14, or requires the Company to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Bank pursuant to subsection 2.15, then such Bank shall (at the request of the Company) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Bank, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate the illegality that gave rise to the notice under subsection 2.13 or would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to subsection 2.14 or 2.15, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Bank to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Bank.  The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Bank in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(b)    If any Bank provides a notice under subsection 2.13, requests compensation under subsection 2.14, or if the Company is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Bank pursuant to subsection 2.15 and, in each case, such Bank has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with subsection 2.17(a), or if any Bank is a Defaulting Bank or a Non-Consenting Bank, then the Company may, at its sole expense, upon notice to such Bank and the Administrative 

39

Agent, require such Bank to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, subsection 9.6), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to subsection 2.14 or 2.15) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Bank, if a Bank accepts such assignment); provided that:
(i)    the Company shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in subsection 9.6;
(ii)    such Bank shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and funded participations in LOC Obligations, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under subsection 2.16) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts);
(iii)    in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under subsection 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to subsection 2.15, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;
(iv)    such assignment does not conflict with applicable law; and
(v)    in the case of any assignment resulting from a Bank becoming a Non-Consenting Bank, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.
A Bank shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Bank or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
2.18    [Reserved].
2.19    [Reserved].
2.20    Increase of Commitments.
(a)    At the request of the Company to the Administrative Agent, the aggregate Commitments hereunder may be increased after the Closing Date on one or more occasions by not more than $750,000,000; provided that (i) each such increase is in a minimum amount of $25,000,000 or $10,000,000 increments in excess thereof, (ii) the sum of the aggregate Commitments hereunder shall not exceed $2,400,000,000 after giving effect to such increases, (iii) the Commitment of any Bank may not be increased without its consent, (iv) the consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender that has an outstanding Letter of Credit is obtained (which consent shall not be 

40

unreasonably withheld), (v) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (vi) each of the representations and warranties made on the Closing Date are true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent such representations and warranties are qualified by materiality in the text thereof, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct) on and as of the date of such increase.
(b)    In the event that the Company and one or more of the Banks (or other financial institutions that may elect to participate with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld)) shall agree, in accordance with subsection 2.20(a), upon such an increase in the aggregate Commitments, the Company, the Administrative Agent and each financial institution in question shall enter into a Commitment Increase Supplement (a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit F) setting forth the amounts of the increase in Commitments and providing that the additional financial institutions participating shall be deemed to be included as Banks for all purposes of this Agreement.  Upon the execution and delivery of such Commitment Increase Supplement as provided above, and upon the satisfaction of such other conditions as the Administrative Agent may reasonably specify (including the delivery of certificates and legal opinions on behalf of the Company relating to the amendment and new Notes), this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended accordingly.
(c)    No Bank shall have any obligation to increase its Commitment in the event of such a request by the Company hereunder.
2.21    Payment in Full at Maturity.  The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Bank, the entire outstanding principal amount owing to such Bank under this Agreement or under any other Loan Documents, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon and all other sums owing to such Bank under this Agreement, on the Termination Date applicable to such Bank unless accelerated sooner pursuant to Section 7.
2.22    Letter of Credit Subfacility.
(a)    Issuance.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and of the LOC Documents, if any, and any other terms and conditions that the Issuing Lenders may reasonably require, during the Commitment Period the Issuing Lenders may at their sole discretion issue, and the Banks shall participate in, Letters of Credit for the account of the Company from time to time upon request in a form acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender; provided, however, that (i) the aggregate amount of LOC Obligations shall not at any time exceed $250,000,000; (ii) the Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of outstanding Loans plus outstanding LOC Obligations shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments at such time; (iii) Letters of Credit shall be issued for lawful corporate purposes and may be issued as standby letters of credit; and (iv) all Letters of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars or a Foreign Currency.  In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any LOC Document, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.  Except as otherwise expressly agreed upon by all the 

41

Banks, no Letter of Credit shall have an original expiry date more than 12 months from the date of issuance; provided, however, that subject to the other terms and conditions to the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder, the expiry dates of Letters of Credit may be extended annually or periodically from time to time on the request of the Company or by operation of the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit to a date not more than 12 months from the date of extension; provided further that (x) no Letter of Credit, as originally issued or as extended, shall have an expiry date extending beyond the date that is 30 days prior to the final Termination Date and (y) no Letter of Credit may expire after the Termination Date of any Non-Extending Bank if, after giving effect to such issuance or renewal, the aggregate Commitments of the Consenting Banks (including any replacement Banks) for the period following such Termination Date would be less than the LOC Obligations for Letters of Credit expiring after such Termination Date.  Each Letter of Credit shall comply with the related LOC Documents.  The issuance and expiry date of each Letter of Credit shall be a Business Day.  Any Letters of Credit issued hereunder shall be in a minimum original face amount of $50,000.
(b)    Notice and Reports.  The request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be submitted to the applicable Issuing Lender at least five Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance.  Each Issuing Lender will promptly, upon the issuance, amendment or expiration of any Letter of Credit, or upon request, provide to the Administrative Agent for dissemination to the Banks a detailed report specifying the Letters of Credit that are then issued and outstanding and any activity with respect thereto that shall have occurred since the date of any prior report, and including therein, among other things, the account party, the beneficiary, the face amount and the expiry date of each such Letter of Credit as well as any payments or expirations that shall have occurred with respect thereto.  Each Issuing Lender will further provide to the Administrative Agent promptly upon request copies of the Letters of Credit.  Each Issuing Lender will provide to the Administrative Agent promptly upon request a summary report of the nature and extent of LOC Obligations then outstanding.
(c)    Participations.  Each Bank, upon issuance of a Letter of Credit, shall be deemed to have purchased without recourse a risk participation from the applicable Issuing Lender in such Letter of Credit and the obligations arising thereunder and any collateral relating thereto, in each case in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the obligations under such Letter of Credit (a “Participation Interest”), and shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and be obligated to pay to the applicable Issuing Lender therefor and discharge when due, its Commitment Percentage of the obligations arising under such Letter of Credit.  Without limiting the scope and nature of each Bank’s participation in any Letter of Credit, to the extent that an Issuing Lender has not been reimbursed as required hereunder or under any LOC Document, each such Bank shall pay to such Issuing Lender its Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed drawing in same day funds on the day of notification by such Issuing Lender of an unreimbursed drawing pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of subsection 2.22(d) if such notice is received at or before 2:00 p.m. on a Business Day, otherwise such payment shall be made at or before 

42

12:00 noon on the Business Day next succeeding the day such notice is received.  The obligation of each Bank to so reimburse the Issuing Lenders shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by the occurrence of a Default, an Event of Default or any other occurrence or event.  Any such reimbursement shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Company to reimburse the Issuing Lenders under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as hereinafter provided.
(d)    Reimbursement.  In the event of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent.  The Company shall reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender on the day of a drawing under any Letter of Credit (with the proceeds of a Loan obtained hereunder or otherwise) in same day funds as provided herein or in the LOC Documents.  Unless the Company shall immediately notify the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent of its intent to otherwise reimburse such Issuing Lender, the Company shall be deemed to have requested an LOC Mandatory Borrowing in the amount of the drawing as provided in subsection 2.22(f), the proceeds of which will be used to satisfy the applicable Reimbursement Obligation.  In the event that any LOC Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law), the applicable Issuing Lender shall notify the Banks of such inability and each Bank hereby agrees that it shall forthwith fund (as of the date that the LOC Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from the Company on or after such date and prior to such purchase) its Participation Interest in the outstanding Reimbursement Obligations owed to such Issuing Lender.  Each Bank shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, the amount of such Bank’s Commitment Percentage of such Reimbursement Obligation.  Such payment shall be made on the day such notice is received by such Bank from such Issuing Lender if such notice is received at or before 2:00 p.m. on a Business Day, otherwise such payment shall be made at or before 12:00 noon on the Business Day next succeeding the day such notice is received.  If such Bank does not pay such amount to the applicable Issuing Lender in full upon such request, such Bank shall, on demand, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender interest on the unpaid amount during the period from the date of such drawing until such Bank pays such amount to such Issuing Lender in full at a rate per annum equal to, if paid within two Business Days of the date of drawing, the Federal Funds Rate or, if paid thereafter, the Base Rate.  Each Bank’s obligation to make such payment to the Issuing Lenders, and the right of each Issuing Lender to receive the same, shall be absolute and unconditional, shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever and without regard to the termination of this Agreement or the Commitments hereunder, the existence of a Default or Event of Default or the acceleration of the Obligations hereunder and shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.
(e)    Repayment Obligation Absolute.  The Company’s Reimbursement Obligations shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in 

43

accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following circumstances (it being understood that any such payment by the Company is without prejudice to, and does not constitute a waiver of, any rights the Company might have or might acquire as a result of the payment by any Issuing Lender or any Bank of any draft or the reimbursement by the Company thereof):
(i)    any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document;
(ii)    any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the Company in respect of Loan Document or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the Loan Documents;
(iii)    the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that the Company may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of a Letter of Credit (or any Persons for which any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent, any Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or any unrelated transaction;
(iv)    any statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;
(v)    payment by any Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not substantially comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit;
(vi)    any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations of the Company in respect of the Loan Documents; or
(vii)    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 Company or a guarantor.
(f)    Repayment with Loans.  On any day on which the Company shall have requested, or been deemed to have requested, a Loan to reimburse a drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Banks that a Loan has been requested or deemed requested in connection with a drawing under a Letter of Credit, in which case a Loan borrowing comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans (each such borrowing, an “LOC Mandatory Borrowing”) shall be immediately made (without giving effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 7) pro rata based on each Bank’s respective Commitment Percentage (determined before giving 

44

effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 7).  The proceeds of such LOC Mandatory Borrowing shall be paid directly to the applicable Issuing Lender for application to the respective LOC Obligations.  Each Bank hereby irrevocably agrees to make such Loans immediately upon any such request or deemed request on account of each LOC Mandatory Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence and on the same such date notwithstanding (i) that the amount of the LOC Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount for borrowings of Loans otherwise required hereunder; (ii) whether any conditions specified in subsection 4.2 are then satisfied; (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists; (iv) the failure for any such request or deemed request for Loan to be made by the time otherwise required in subsection 2.3; (v) the date of such LOC Mandatory Borrowing; or (vi) any reduction in the aggregate amount of the Commitments after any such Letter of Credit may have been drawn upon.
(g)    Modification, Extension.  The issuance of any supplement, modification, amendment, renewal, or extension to any Letter of Credit shall, for purposes hereof, be treated in all respects the same as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit hereunder.
(h)    Letter of Credit Governing Law.  Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Lender and the Company when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of “International Standby Practices 1998,” as most recently published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice at the time of issuance, shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit.
2.23    Indemnification of Issuing Lenders; Nature of Issuing Lenders’ Duties.
(a)    In addition to its other obligations under subsection 2.22, the Company hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save each Issuing Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that any Issuing Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit on behalf such Company or (ii) the refusal of an Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit issued on behalf of the Company (A) as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority (all such acts or omissions, herein called “Government Acts”) or (B) if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit.
(b)    As between the Company and the Issuing Lenders, the Company shall assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof.  No Issuing Lender shall be responsible:  (i) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or 

45

proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, that may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) for failure of the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon a Letter of Credit; (iv) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) for errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; and (vii) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Lender, including any Government Acts.  None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of the Issuing Lenders’ rights or powers hereunder.
(c)    In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by an Issuing Lender, under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related certificates, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach in bad faith, shall not put such Issuing Lender under any resulting liability to the Company.  It is the intention of the parties that this Agreement shall be construed and applied to protect and indemnify the Issuing Lenders against any and all risks involved in the issuance of the Letters of Credit, all of which risks are hereby assumed by the Company, including any and all risks of the acts or omissions, whether rightful or wrongful, of any Government Authority.  No Issuing Lender shall, in any way, be liable for any failure by an Issuing Lender or anyone else to pay any drawing under any Letter of Credit as a result of any Government Acts or any other cause beyond the control of such Issuing Lender.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company shall have a claim against any Issuing Lender and such Issuing Lender shall be liable to the Company, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by the Company that the Company proves were caused by (i) such Issuing Lender’s willful misconduct, gross negligence or breach in bad faith in determining whether documents presented under any Letter of Credit comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit or (ii) such Issuing Lender’s willful failure to make lawful payment under a Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a draft and certificates strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, such Issuing Bank 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.
(d)    Except as provided in subsection 2.23(e), nothing in this subsection 2.23 is intended to limit the Reimbursement Obligation of the Company contained in subsection 2.22(d).  The obligations of the Company under this subsection 2.23 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.  No acts or omissions of any current or prior beneficiary of a Letter of Credit shall in any way affect or impair the rights of the Issuing Lenders to enforce any right, power or benefit under this Agreement.
(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection 2.23, the Company shall have no obligation to indemnify an Issuing Lender in 

46

respect of any liability incurred by such Issuing Lenders arising out of the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach in bad faith of such Issuing Lender (including action not taken by such Issuing Lender), as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
2.24    Defaulting Banks.
(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, then, until such time as such Bank is no longer a Defaulting Bank, to the extent permitted by applicable law:
(i)    Such Defaulting Bank’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 Majority Banks.
(ii)    Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Bank (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 7 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Bank pursuant to subsection 9.7(b) shall be applied as follows:
(A)    FIRST to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Bank to the Administrative Agent hereunder;
(B)    SECOND to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Bank to any Issuing Lender hereunder;
(C)    THIRD to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Bank in accordance with subsection 2.26;
(D)    FOURTH as the Company may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Bank has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent;
(E)    FIFTH if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Company, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Bank’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Bank with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with subsection 2.26;
(F)    SIXTH to the payment of any amounts owing to the Banks, the Issuing Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent 

47

jurisdiction obtained by any Bank or the Issuing Lenders against such Defaulting Bank as a result of such Defaulting Bank’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement;
(G)    SEVENTH so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Company as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Company against such Defaulting Bank as a result of such Defaulting Bank’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and
(H)    EIGHTH to such Defaulting Bank or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction;
provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Reimbursement Obligation in respect of which such Defaulting Bank has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in subsection 4.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Reimbursement Obligations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Banks on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Reimbursement Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Bank until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in LOC Obligations are held by the Banks pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to subsection 2.24(a)(iv).  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Bank that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Bank or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this subsection 2.24(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Bank, and each Bank irrevocably consents hereto.
(iii)    (A)    Each Defaulting Bank shall be entitled to receive a facility fee for any period during which such Bank is a Defaulting Bank only to the extent allocable to the sum of (1) the outstanding principal amount of the Loans funded by it, and (2) its Commitment Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to subsection 2.26.
(B)    Each Defaulting Bank shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which such Bank is a Defaulting Bank only to the extent allocable to its Commitment Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to subsection 2.26.
(C)    With respect to any facility fee or Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Bank pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Company shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Bank that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Bank with respect to such Defaulting Bank’s participation in LOC Obligations that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Bank pursuant to 

48

subsection 2.24(a)(iv), (y) pay to each Issuing Lender the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Bank to the extent allocable to such Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Bank, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.
(iv)    All or any part of such Defaulting Bank’s participation in LOC Obligations shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Banks in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Bank’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in subsection 4.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Company shall have otherwise specifically notified the Administrative Agent, the Company shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate principal amount of the Loans and Participation Interests of any Non-Defaulting Bank to exceed such Non-Defaulting Bank’s Commitment.  No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Bank arising from that Bank having become a Defaulting Bank, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Bank as a result of such Non-Defaulting Bank’s increased exposure following such reallocation.
(v)    If the reallocation described in subsection 2.24(a)(iv) cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Company shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in subsection 2.26.
(b)    If the Company, the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender agree in writing that a Bank is no longer a Defaulting Bank, 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 Bank will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Banks or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held pro rata by the Banks in accordance with the Commitments (without giving effect to subsection 2.24(a)(iv)), whereupon such Bank will cease to be a Defaulting Bank; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Company while that Bank was a Defaulting Bank; provided further that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Bank to Bank will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Bank’s having been a Defaulting Bank.
2.25    Extension of Termination Date.
(a)    At least 35 days but not more than 70 days prior to any anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, may request 

49

an extension of the Termination Date in effect at such time by one year from its then scheduled expiration; provided that the Company may make no more than two such requests.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of such request, and each Bank shall in turn, in its sole discretion, not later than 25 days prior to the applicable anniversary date, notify the Company and the Administrative Agent in writing as to whether such Bank will consent to such extension.  If any Bank shall fail to notify the Administrative Agent and the Company in writing of its consent to any such request for extension of the Termination Date at least 25 days prior to the applicable anniversary date, such Bank shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Bank with respect to such request.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Company not later than 20 days prior to the applicable anniversary date of the decision of the Banks regarding the Company’s request for an extension of the Termination Date.
(b)    If Banks holding more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments then in effect (including Banks assuming or increasing their Commitments in accordance with subsection 2.25(c), each a “Consenting Bank”) consent in writing to any such request in accordance with subsection 2.25(a), the Termination Date of each Consenting Lender in effect at such time shall, effective as at the applicable anniversary date (the “Extension Date”), be extended for one year, but shall not be extended as to any other Bank (each a “Non-Extending Bank”); provided that on each Extension Date (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) each of the representations and warranties made on the Closing Date is true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent such representations and warranties are qualified by materiality in the text thereof, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct) on and as of the Extension Date (unless such representation or warranty was made solely as of the Closing Date or any other day specified therein).  To the extent that the Termination Date is not extended as to a Bank pursuant to this subsection 2.25 and the Commitment of such Bank is not assumed in accordance with subsection 2.25(c) on or prior to the applicable Extension Date, the Company may, with the consent of all of the Banks other than such Non-Extending Bank (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld) terminate in whole the Commitment of such Non-Extending Bank as of the Extension Date or, if not so earlier terminated, the Commitment of such Non-Extending Bank shall automatically terminate in whole on such unextended Termination Date without any further notice or other action by the Company, such Bank or any other Person; provided that such Non-Extending Bank’s rights under subsections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.5 and its obligations under subsection 8.7 shall survive the Termination Date for such Bank as to matters occurring prior to such date.  It is understood and agreed that no Bank shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to any request made by the Company for any requested extension of the Termination Date.
(c)    If less than all of the Banks consent to any such request pursuant to subsection 2.25(a), the Company may arrange for one or more Consenting Banks or other banks or financial institutions approved by the Company, the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender that has an outstanding Letter of Credit (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld) as Purchasing Banks (x) to assume, effective as of the 

50

Extension Date or such other date as may be agreed among the Company, the applicable Non-Extending Bank, the assignee Consenting Bank(s) or Purchasing Bank(s) and the Administrative Agent, all of such Non-Extending Bank’s Commitment and all of the obligations of such Non-Extending Bank under this Agreement thereafter arising, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Non-Extending Bank and (y) to accept, effective as of the Extension Date or such other date as any Purchasing Bank executes and delivers a Commitment Transfer Supplement, the Termination Date applicable to the Consenting Banks; provided, however, that the amount of the Commitment of any such Purchasing Bank as a result of such substitution shall in no event be less than $10,000,000 unless the amount of the Commitment of such Non-Extending Bank is less than $10,000,000, in which case such Purchasing Bank shall assume all of such lesser amount; provided further that:
(i)    any such Consenting Bank or Purchasing Bank shall have paid to such Non-Extending Bank an amount equal to (A) the aggregate principal amount of, and any interest accrued and unpaid to the effective date of the assignment on, the outstanding Loans, if any, of such Non-Extending Bank plus (B) any accrued but unpaid facility fees owing to such Non-Extending Bank as of the effective date of such assignment; and
(ii)    all additional cost reimbursements, expense reimbursements and indemnities payable to such Non-Extending Bank, and all other accrued and unpaid amounts owing to such Non-Extending Bank hereunder, as of the effective date of such assignment shall have been paid to such Non-Extending Bank;
provided further that such Non-Extending Bank’s rights under subsections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.5 and its obligations under subsection 8.7, shall survive such substitution as to matters occurring prior to the date of substitution.  At least three Business Days prior to any Extension Date, (A) each such Purchasing Bank, if any, shall have delivered to the Company and the Administrative Agent a Commitment Transfer Supplement, duly executed by such Purchasing Bank, such Non-Extending Bank, the Company and the Administrative Agent and (B) each applicable Consenting Bank shall have delivered confirmation in writing satisfactory to the Company and the Administrative Agent as to the increase in the amount of its Commitment.  Each Non-Extending Bank being replaced pursuant to this subsection 2.25 shall, upon the request of either the Administrative Agent or the Company, promptly deliver any Note or Notes held by such Non-Extending Bank.  Upon the payment or prepayment of all amounts referred to in subsection 2.25(c)(i) or 2.25(c)(ii), each such Consenting Bank or Purchasing Bank, as of the Extension Date, will be substituted for such Non-Extending Bank under this Agreement and shall be a Bank for all purposes of this Agreement, without any further acknowledgment by or the consent of the other Banks, and the obligations of each such Non-Extending Bank hereunder shall, by the provisions hereof, be released and discharged.
(d)    If (after giving effect to any assignments or assumptions pursuant to subsection 2.25(c)) the Banks having Commitments equal to at least 50% of the 

51

Commitments in effect immediately prior to the Extension Date consent in writing to a requested extension (whether by execution or delivery of an Assumption Agreement or otherwise) not later than one Business Day prior to such Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Company, and, subject to (i) no Default or Event of Default having occurred and continuing and (ii) each of the representations and warranties made on the Closing Date being true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent such representations and warranties are qualified by materiality in the text thereof, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct) on and as of the Extension Date, then the Termination Date then in effect with respect to each Consenting Bank and Purchasing Bank shall be extended for the additional one-year period as described in subsection 2.25(a), and all references in the Loan Documents to the “Termination Date” shall, with respect to each Consenting Bank and each Purchasing Bank for such Extension Date, refer to the Termination Date as so extended.  Promptly following each Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks (including each Purchasing Bank) of the extension of the scheduled Termination Date in effect immediately prior thereto and shall thereupon record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each such Consenting Bank and each such Purchasing Bank.
2.26    Cash Collateral.
(a)    If at any time a Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), such Defaulting Bank shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Bank in an amount not less than the applicable Fronting Exposure.  At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Bank, within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Company shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Bank (determined after giving effect to subsection 2.24(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Bank) in an amount not less than the applicable Fronting Exposure.  If, as of the termination of the Commitments hereunder, any LOC Obligation remains outstanding, the Company shall immediately Cash Collateralize all outstanding LOC Obligations.
(b)    The Company, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Bank, such Defaulting Bank, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral was required to be furnished, to be applied pursuant to subsection 2.26(c).  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 and the Issuing Lenders as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the aggregate Fronting Exposures or the LOC Obligations with respect to any Issuing Lender as the case may be, the Company will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the 

52

Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Bank).
(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under subsection 2.24 or this subsection 2.26 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific LOC Obligations, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.
(d)    Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this subsection 2.26 following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Bank status of the applicable Bank) or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender that there exists excess Cash Collateral, and upon demand by the Person providing such Cash Collateral, such Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) shall be returned to such Person; provided that, subject to subsection 2.24, the Person providing Cash Collateral and each Issuing Lender may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.
SECTION 3    
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
To induce the Banks to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit hereunder, the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Bank as of the Closing Date and as of the date of each Extension of Credit that:

66

become due or required to be purchased, redeemed or otherwise defeased prior to its stated maturity or such Guarantee Obligation to become payable; provided that the aggregate principal amount of any such Indebtedness and Guarantee Obligations outstanding at such time, when aggregated with the outstanding principal amount of all other such Indebtedness and Guarantee Obligations in respect of which the Company or any Significant Subsidiary shall have so defaulted or an event shall have occurred or a condition exists as described above, aggregates $100,000,000 or more; or
(g)    (i) The Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries shall commence any case, proceeding or other action (A) under any existing or future law of any jurisdiction, domestic or foreign, relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors, seeking to have an order for relief entered with respect to it, or seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, winding-up, liquidation, dissolution, composition or other relief with respect to it or its debts, or (B) seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for all or any substantial part of its assets, or the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries shall make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (ii) there shall be commenced against the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries any case, proceeding or other action of a nature referred to in clause (i) above which (A) results in the entry of an order for relief or any such adjudication or appointment or (B) remains undismissed, undischarged or unbonded for a period of 60 days; (iii)  the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries shall take any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of, or acquiescence in, any of the acts set forth in clause (i) or (ii) above; or (iv) the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries shall generally not, or shall be unable to, or shall admit in writing its inability to, pay its debts as they become due; or

67

(i)    The rendering against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of one or more final nonappealable judgments, decrees or orders for the payment of money that, either singly or in the aggregate with all other monies in respect of which a final nonappealable judgment, decree or order for payment shall have been rendered against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary, aggregates $100,000,000 or more, and the continuance of such judgments, decrees or orders unsatisfied and in effect for any period of 30 consecutive days or, in the case of a foreign judgment, decree or order the enforcement of which is not being sought in the United States, 60 consecutive days without a stay of execution; provided, however, that any such amount shall be calculated after deducting from the sum so payable any amount of such judgment or order that is covered by a valid and binding policy of insurance in favor of the Company or such Subsidiary from an insurer that is rated at least “A” by A.M. Best Company, which policy covers full payment thereof and which insurer has been notified, and has not disputed the claim made for payment, of such amount of such judgment or order;
then, and in any such event, (A) if such event is an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or (ii) of subsection 7(g) with respect to the Company, automatically the Commitments and the LOC Commitments shall immediately terminate and the Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement (including the maximum amount of all contingent liabilities under Letters of Credit) shall immediately become due and payable, and (B) if such event is any other Event of Default, either or both of the following actions may be taken:  (i) with the consent of the Majority Banks, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Majority Banks, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Company declare the Commitments and the LOC Commitments to be terminated forthwith, whereupon the Commitments and the LOC Commitments shall immediately terminate; and (ii) with the consent of the Majority Banks, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Majority Banks, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice of default to the Company, (x) declare the Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable, and (y) direct the Company to Cash Collateralize the LOC Obligations in an amount equal to the maximum amount that may be drawn under Letters of Credit then outstanding, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable.  Except as expressly provided above in this Section 7, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived.
SECTION 8    
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
8.1    Appointment.  Each of the Banks hereby irrevocably appoints Citibank to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Each Bank acknowledges that the Company may rely on each action taken by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Banks 

68

hereunder.  The provisions of this Section 8 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Bank and the Issuing Lenders, and the Company shall not have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions, other than with respect to the immediately preceding sentence and as specified in subsection 8.8.  It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.
8.2    Delegation of Duties.  The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of this Section 8 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the facility established hereunder as well as activities as Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.
8.3    Exculpatory Provisions.
(a)    The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:
(i)    shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
(ii)    shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Majority Banks (or such other number or percentage of the Banks as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Bank in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

69

(iii)    shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
(b)    The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Banks (or such other number or percentage of the Banks as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 7 and subsection 9.1), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach in bad faith as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment.  The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent in writing by the Company, a Bank or an Issuing Lender.
(c)    The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 4 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.
8.4    Reliance by Administrative Agent.
(a)    The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Bank or an Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Bank or Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Bank or Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit.  The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Company), independent accountants and other experts selected by 

70

it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
(b)    For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 4.1, each Bank that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Bank.
8.5    Rights as a Bank.  The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Bank as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term “Bank” or “Banks” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.  Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Banks.
8.6    Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Banks.  Each Bank and Issuing Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank 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 Bank and Issuing Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank 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.
8.7    Indemnification by Banks.  The Banks agree to indemnify each of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders in their capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Company and without limiting the obligation of the Company to do so to the extent required pursuant to subsection 9.5), ratably according to the respective amounts of their Commitments (or, if the Commitments have been terminated, ratably according to the respective amount of their outstanding Loans or, if no Loans are outstanding, their Commitments as of the date of such termination) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lenders under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Bank shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s or any Issuing Lender’s gross 

71

negligence, willful misconduct or breach in bad faith.  The agreements in this subsection 8.7 shall survive the payment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder.
8.8    Resignation of Administrative Agent.
(a)    The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Banks, the Issuing Lenders and the Company.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Majority Banks shall have the right, with the approval of the Company (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States of America, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States of America.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Majority Banks) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), with the approval of the Company (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), on behalf of the Banks and the Issuing Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above.  Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
(b)    If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Bank pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Majority Banks may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Company and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, with the approval of the Company (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), appoint a successor.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.
(c)    With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable), (i) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed 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 Bank and Issuing Lender directly, until such time, if any, as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed as provided for above.  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 removed Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.  The fees payable by the Company to a successor Administrative Agent shall 

72

be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor.  After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 8 and subsection 9.5 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed 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 or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
8.9    No Other Duties, etc.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Bookrunners, Arrangers, Syndication Agents or Documentation Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Bank or an Issuing Lender hereunder.
8.10    Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or LOC 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 Company) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) 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, LOC Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Banks, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Banks, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Banks, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent under subsections 2.4 and 9.5) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(b)    to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Bank and Issuing Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Banks and the Issuing Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under subsections 2.4 and 9.5.
SECTION 9    
MISCELLANEOUS

73

9.1    Amendments and Waivers.  Except as provided in subsection 2.20 with respect to increases in Commitments, none of this Agreement, any Note or any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this subsection.  With the written consent of the Majority Banks, the Administrative Agent and the Company may, from time to time, enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the Loan Documents for the purpose of changing any provisions of or adding any provisions to this Agreement or the Notes or changing in any manner the rights of the Banks or of the Company hereunder or thereunder or waiving, on such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that (i) each Bank shall receive a form of any such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification prior to the execution thereof by the Majority Banks or the Administrative Agent and (ii) no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (A) forgive all or any portion of the principal amount of any Loan or any accrued but unpaid interest thereon, increase or extend the Commitment of any Bank, the maturity of any Loan or any installment thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon (other than an amendment of subsection 2.9(c) or waiver of the obligation of the Company to pay any increased interest pursuant to subsection 2.9(c), which may be approved by the Majority Banks or the applicable Issuing Lender), or reduce the amount or extend the time of payment of any fee payable to any Bank hereunder, or change the amount of any Bank’s Commitment (other than as provided in subsection 2.5 or, with respect to any Non-Extending Lender, subsection 2.25(b)), in each case without the consent of the Bank affected thereby, (B) amend, modify or waive any provision of this subsection 9.1 or reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Majority Banks, or consent to the assignment or transfer by the Company of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, in each case without the written consent of all the Banks, (C) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 8 without the written consent of the then Administrative Agent, or (D) amend, modify or waive any provision of the Loan Documents affecting the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lenders under any Loan Document without the written consent of the Administrative Agent and/or the Issuing Lenders, as applicable, in addition to the Banks required hereinabove to take such action.  Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Banks and shall be binding upon the Company, the Banks, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Loans.  In the case of any waiver, the Company, the Banks and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the outstanding Loans, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (1) no Defaulting Bank shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Banks or each affected Bank may be effected with the consent of the applicable Banks other than Defaulting Banks), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Bank may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Bank, nor may the maturity of any Loan that such Defaulting Bank has funded or any installment thereof be extended or the rate of interest thereon be reduced, and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Banks or each affected Bank that by its terms affects any Defaulting Bank more 

74

adversely than other affected Banks shall require the consent of such Defaulting Bank and (2) the Administrative Agent and the Company shall be permitted to amend any provision of the Loan Documents (and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document) if the Administrative Agent and the Company shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature in any such provision.

9.3    No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.  No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Bank, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder 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 Company agrees (i) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent, (ii) to pay or reimburse each Bank and the Administrative Agent for all its costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and to the several Banks and (iii) to pay, and indemnify and hold harmless each Bank and the Administrative Agent and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and any such other documents (all the foregoing, collectively, the “indemnified liabilities”); provided that the Company shall have no obligation hereunder to the Administrative Agent or any Bank with respect to indemnified liabilities arising from (A) the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach in bad faith of the Administrative Agent or such Bank, (B) legal proceedings commenced or claims against the Administrative Agent or such Bank by any security holder or creditor thereof arising out of and based upon rights afforded any such security holder or creditor solely in its capacity as such, (C) legal proceedings commenced or claims against the Administrative Agent or such Bank by any other Bank or by any Transferee or (D) claims settled without the consent of the Company.  In the case of any investigation, litigation or other proceeding or action to which the indemnity in this subsection 9.5 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or other proceeding or action is brought by the Company or any affiliate of the Company, whether or not the party seeking indemnity is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any aspect of the transactions contemplated hereby 

77

is consummated.  The agreements in this subsection shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.  This Section 9.5 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than Taxes that represent liabilities arising from a non-Tax claim.
9.6    Successors and Assigns; Participations; Purchasing Banks.
(a)    The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Company may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Bank, and no Bank may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to a Purchasing Bank in accordance with the provisions of subsection 9.6(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection 9.6(d), or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection 9.6(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 9.6(d) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Banks) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b)    Any Bank may at any time assign to one or more assignees (each, a “Purchasing Bank”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i)    (A)    in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Bank’s Commitment and/or the Loans at the time owing to it or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in subsection 9.6(b)(i)(B) in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Bank, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B)    in any case not described in subsection 9.6(b)(i)(A), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Commitment Transfer Supplement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Commitment Transfer Supplement, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $10,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

78

(ii)    Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned.
(iii)    No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection 9.6(b)(i)(B) and, in addition:
(A)    the consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Bank, an Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund which, in the case of any such Affiliate, has Short-Term Ratings which are no lower than the Short-Term Ratings of the assigning Bank; provided that the Company shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days after having received notice thereof; and
(B)    the consent of each of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender that has a Letter of Credit outstanding (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments to a Person who is not a Bank, an Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund.
(iv)    The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Commitment Transfer Supplement, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment.  The Purchasing Bank, if it is not a Bank, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
(v)    No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Bank or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this subsection 9.6(b)(v).
(vi)    No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.
(vii)    In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Bank 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 Purchasing Bank of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Company and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata 

79

share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Bank, to each of which the applicable Purchasing Bank and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Bank to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and each other Bank hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Applicable Percentage.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Bank hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this subsection 9.6(b)(vii), then the Purchasing Bank of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Bank for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 9.6(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Commitment Transfer Supplement, the Purchasing Bank thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Commitment Transfer Supplement, have the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement, and the assigning Bank thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Commitment Transfer Supplement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of a Commitment Transfer Supplement covering all of the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits and obligations, if any, of subsection 2.14, 2.15 and 9.5 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Bank will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Bank’s having been a Defaulting Bank.  Any assignment or transfer by a Bank of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection 9.6(b) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Bank of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection 9.6(d).
(c)    The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Company, shall maintain at one of its offices in New Castle, Delaware, a copy of each Commitment Transfer Supplement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error, and the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Banks 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 Company and any Bank, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(d)    (i)    Any Bank may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Company, any Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, a Competitor, or the Company or any of the 

80

Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Bank’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Bank’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Bank shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, each Bank shall be responsible for the indemnity under subsection 8.7 with respect to any payments made by such Bank to its Participant(s).
(ii)    Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Bank sells such a participation shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement.  The Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of subsections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under subsection 2.15(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under subsection 2.15(f) shall be delivered to the participating Bank)) to the same extent as if it were a Bank and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection 9.6(b); provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of subsection 2.17 as if it were an Purchasing Bank under subsection 9.6(b); and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under subsections 2.14 or 2.15, with respect to any participation, than its participating Bank would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.  Each Bank that sells a participation agrees, at the Company’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Company to effectuate the provisions of subsection 2.17 with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of subsection 9.7(b) as though it were a Bank; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to subsection 9.7(a) as though it were a Bank.  Each Bank that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, 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 Bank 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) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error, and such Bank 

81

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)    Any Bank may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all of any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Bank, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Bank from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledge or assignee for such Bank as a party hereto.
9.7    Adjustments; Set-off.
(a)    If any Bank 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 Bank receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Bank receiving such greater proportion shall (i) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and (ii) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Banks, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Banks 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 are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and
(ii)    the provisions of this subsection 9.7(a) shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Company pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Bank), or (y) any payment obtained by a Bank as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in Reimbursement Obligations to any assignee or participant, other than to the Company or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this subsection 9.7(a) shall apply).
The Company consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Bank acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Company rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were a direct creditor of the Company in the amount of such participation.

82

(b)    If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Bank, each Issuing Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Bank, such Issuing Lender or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of the Company against any and all of the obligations of the Company now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Bank or such Issuing Lender or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Bank, Issuing Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Company may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Bank or such Issuing Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Bank shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of subsection 2.24 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Bank from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, and the Banks, and (y) the Defaulting Bank shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Bank as to which it exercised such right of setoff.  The rights of each Bank, each Issuing Lender and their respective Affiliates under this subsection 9.6(d) are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Bank, such Issuing Lender or their respective Affiliates may have.  Each Bank and Issuing Lender agrees to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
9.8    Table of Contents and Section Headings.  The table of contents and the section and subsection headings herein are intended for convenience only and shall be ignored in construing this Agreement.
9.9    Confidentiality.  Each of the Banks and the Administrative Agent agrees to keep confidential (and to cause its officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives, and its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives who gain access to Confidential Materials (as defined below), to keep confidential) any information which is or has been obtained pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (including subsection 5.4(b)) (collectively, the “Confidential Materials”), except that such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall be permitted to disclose the Confidential Materials (i) to such of the officers, directors, employees, agents, independent auditors and representatives of the Bank or any of its Affiliates as need to know such Confidential Materials in connection with its administration of its Commitment and Loans (provided such persons are informed of the confidential nature of the Confidential Materials and the restrictions imposed by this subsection), (ii) to the extent required by law (including disclosure to bank examiners and regulatory officials or self-regulatory bodies) or legal process (in which event such Bank or the Administrative 

83

Agent, as the case may be, will promptly notify the Company of any such requirement), (iii) to the extent such Confidential Materials become publicly available other than as a result of a breach of the provisions of this subsection, (iv) to the extent the Company shall have consented to such disclosure in writing, (v) subject to a written agreement to be bound by the terms of this subsection 9.9 as if it were a Bank party to this Agreement, to (A) a prospective Transferee, (B) a direct, indirect, actual or prospective counterparty (and its advisors) to any swap, derivative or securitization transaction relating to the Company and the Obligations or (C) a credit insurance provider relating to the Company and the Obligations, (vi) to a Governmental Authority in connection with litigation involving this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (vii) to Gold Sheets and other similar bank trade publications (such information to consist of deal terms and other information regarding the credit facilities evidenced by this Agreement customarily found in such publications) and (viii) in connection with any suit, action or proceeding for the purpose of defending itself, reducing its liability, or protecting or exercising any of its claims, rights, remedies or interests under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that in no event shall any such Bank or the Administrative Agent disclose any of the Confidential Materials to any of its Excluded Individuals.
9.10    Patriot Act Notice.  Each Bank and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any other party) hereby notifies the Company that, pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Company, which information includes the name and address of the Company and other information that will allow such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Company in accordance with the Patriot Act.
9.11    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.  A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Company and the Administrative Agent.
9.12    Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
9.13    Integration.  This Agreement represents the entire agreement of the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Banks with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Bank relative to subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.
9.14    GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

84

9.15    Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers.  Each of the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Banks hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:
(a)    submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive general jurisdiction of the Courts of the State of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;
(b)    consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;
(c)    agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Company at its address set forth in subsection 9.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;
(d)    agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and
(e)    waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this subsection any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.
9.16    Acknowledgements.  Each of the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Banks hereby acknowledges that:
(a)    it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;
(b)    neither the Administrative Agent nor any Bank has any fiduciary relationship to the Company, and the relationship between the Administrative Agent and the Banks, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, is solely that of debtor and creditor; 
(c)    the Administrative Agent, each Bank and their Affiliates may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Company, its stockholders and/or its Affiliates; and
(d)    no joint venture exists among the Banks or among the Company and the Banks.

85

9.17    WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL.  THE COMPANY, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE BANKS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE NOTES AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.
9.18    Effectiveness.  This Agreement shall become effective on the date on which all of the conditions set forth in subsection 4.1 have been satisfied or waived by the Banks and all of the parties have signed a copy hereof (whether the same or different copies) and shall have delivered the same to the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 9.2 or, in the case of the Banks, shall have given to the Administrative Agent written, facsimile or telex notice (actually received) at such office that the same has been signed and mailed to it.
9.19    Judgment Currency.  If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.  The obligation of the Company in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Bank hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than currency required to be paid hereunder (the “Contract Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Bank of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Bank may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Contract Currency with the Judgment Currency.  If the amount of the Contract Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or such Bank in such Contract Currency, the Company agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Bank or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss.  If the amount of the Contract Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or such Bank in such currency, the Administrative Agent and the Banks agree to apply such excess to any Loans or other amounts then due and payable hereunder.

I am Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of The Western Union Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).  I have acted as counsel to the Company in connection with the negotiation, execution and delivery of that certain Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) dated as of September 29, 2015, among the Company as Borrower, the several banks and other financial institutions party thereto as Banks, Citibank, N.A. and Bank of America, N.A., in their respective capacities as Issuing Lenders, Bank of America, N.A. and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Syndication Agents, Barclays Bank PLC, U.S. Bank National Association and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Documentation Agents, and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent for the Banks thereunder.

	2.

	3.
	Neither the execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement, nor the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms and provisions thereof by the Company, will (i) result in the creation or imposition of any mortgage, lien, charge or encumbrance of any nature

whatsoever upon any of the properties or assets of the Company, (ii) violate or result in an event of default under any of the terms of the Company’s charter documents or by-laws, any material indebtedness of the Company, any material contract or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it or its property is bound, or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court of government instrumentality, to which the Company is subject or by which its property is bound, or (iii) violate any Applicable Laws of the State of New York. 
As used in this opinion, “Applicable Laws” shall mean those Colorado State laws, rules and regulations, as applicable, which (a) without having made any special investigation as to the applicability of any specific law, rule or regulation, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Credit Agreement and (b) are not the subject of and expressly referred to in a specific opinion herein, provided, that the term “Applicable Laws” shall not include federal or state securities or blue sky laws, fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer laws, antifraud laws, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, commodities laws (including, without limitation, the Commodity Exchange Act), or in each case any rules or regulations thereunder.
I am a member of the bar of the State of New York and the foregoing opinions are limited to the laws of the State of New York, the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Federal laws of the United States of America. 
This opinion letter is furnished by me solely for the Administrative Agent and the Banks’ benefit and the benefit of the Banks’ successors and permitted assignees under the Credit Agreement and it may be not be relied upon, quoted from or delivered to any person other than such successors and assignees, the Administrative Agent and each Bank’s legal counsel and the legal counsel of such successors and assignees, without my express written consent, provided that this opinion letter may be disclosed to bank or other governmental regulatory examiners with authority over a Bank on the condition that such disclosure is for the purpose of confirming the existence of this opinion letter and that such bank or other governmental regulatory examiners are not authorized to rely hereon.
This opinion letter is being given as of the date hereof, and I assume no obligation to update or supplement this opinion letter to reflect any facts or circumstances which may hereafter come to my attention with respect to the matters discussed herein, including any changes in applicable law which may hereafter occur.

	Re:
	The Western Union Company

Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as special New York counsel to The Western Union Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) dated as of September 29, 2015, among the Company as Borrower, the several banks and other financial institutions party thereto as Banks, Citibank, N.A. and Bank of America, N.A., in their respective capacities as Issuing Lenders, Bank of America, N.A. and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Syndication Agents, Barclays Bank PLC, U.S. Bank National Association and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Documentation Agents, and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent for the Banks thereunder. This opinion letter is being furnished to you at the request of the Company pursuant to Section 4.1(f) of the Credit Agreement.  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement.
In arriving at the opinions expressed below, we have examined the following:
(i)    the Credit Agreement;
(ii)    the Note, dated September 29, 2015, issued by the Company in favor of Fifth Third Bank (the “Note” and together with the Credit Agreement, the “Loan Documents”); and 
(iii)    such other certificates, agreements, instruments and documents as we have deemed relevant or necessary as the basis for the opinions hereinafter expressed.
As used in this opinion, “Applicable Laws” shall mean those New York State or United States Federal laws, rules and regulations, as applicable, which (a) in our experience, without having made any special investigation as to the applicability of any specific law, rule or regulation, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Loan Documents and (b) are not the subject of and expressly referred to in a specific opinion herein, provided, that the term “Applicable Laws” shall not include federal or state securities or blue sky laws (including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended or the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended), fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer laws, antifraud laws, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, commodities laws (including, without limitation, the Commodity Exchange Act), or in each case any rules or regulations thereunder.
In our examination referred to above, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies.  In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have relied upon, and assumed the truth and accuracy of, factual matters set forth in certificates of 

the Company, documents and records supplied to us, the representations and warranties of the Company in the Loan Documents, and certificates of public officials.  We have also assumed, with your permission and without independent investigation, that:
(i)    each party to each of the Loan Documents is and at all relevant times has been duly organized or formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization or formation, and each such party has and at all relevant times had the requisite power and authority to conduct its business and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Loan Documents;
(ii)    the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by each party thereto have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other appropriate actions and proceedings on the part of each such party;
(iii)    the Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by, and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of each party thereto, enforceable against each such party in accordance with their terms (except that no such assumption is made with respect to the Company to the extent expressly addressed in Paragraph 1 below);
(iv)    none of the execution, delivery or performance of the Loan Documents by any party thereto does or will (a) contravene or violate any provision of any law, rule or regulation (except that no such assumption is made with respect to the Company to the extent expressly addressed in Paragraph 2 below), (b) contravene or violate any charter or other organizational document of such party or (c) conflict or be inconsistent with, or result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default in respect of, or result in the creation or imposition of, or the obligation to create or impose, any lien or security interest upon any of the property or assets of such party under or in respect of the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, credit agreement, loan agreement or other agreement, contract or instrument to which such party is a party or by which its properties or assets are bound or to which it may otherwise be subject; and
(v)    no consent, approval, authorization, order, filing, registration or qualification of or with any Governmental Authority is required for the execution, delivery or performance of the Loan Documents by any party thereto (except that no such assumption is made with respect to the Company to the extent expressly addressed in Paragraph 3 below).
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and subject to the other comments, qualifications and assumptions set forth herein, and having considered such questions of law as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below, we are of the opinion that:
1.    Each of the Loan Documents constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.
2.    The execution and delivery by the Company of the Loan Documents and the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder do not and will not violate any Applicable Law of the State of New York or of the United States of America (including, without limitation, Regulations U and X of the Federal Reserve Board).
3.    The execution and delivery by the Company of the Loan Documents and the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder do not require any consent, approval, or order of, 

authorization by, or filing, registration or qualification with, any Governmental Authority under any Applicable Law applicable to the Company. 
4.    The Company is not required to be registered as an “investment company” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
The foregoing opinions are limited to the Applicable Laws of the State of New York and the Applicable Laws of the United States of America (and, to the limited extent specified in Paragraph 4 above, the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended).
Our opinions expressed above are subject to the following assumptions and qualifications:
(i)    Our opinion in Paragraph 1 above is subject to (a) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law), including the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive relief or any other equitable remedy, (c) concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and (d) limitations under applicable law or public policy on waivers of rights or defenses.
(ii)    The enforceability of Section 9.5 (Payment of Expenses) of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provisions contained elsewhere in the Credit Agreement or in any other Loan Document) may be limited by (a) laws (including any United States federal or state securities law, rule or regulation) rendering unenforceable indemnification contrary to any such laws, rules or regulations and the public policy underlying such laws, rules or regulations, (b) laws limiting the enforceability of provisions exculpating or exempting a party from, or requiring indemnification or contribution of a party against, liability for its own gross negligence, misconduct or bad faith or the gross negligence, misconduct or bad faith of its agents, and (c) laws requiring collection and enforcement costs (including fees and disbursements of counsel) to be reasonable.
(iii)    No opinion is expressed herein as to the enforceability of any provision of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document that purports to establish or may be construed to establish any evidentiary standards.
(iv)    No opinion is expressed herein as to the enforceability of provisions in the Credit Agreement or in any other Loan Document to the effect that terms may not be waived or modified except in writing.
(v)    No opinion is expressed herein as to the effect of the laws of any jurisdiction in which the Administrative Agent or any Bank is located (other than the State of New York) that limit the interest, fees or other charges the Administrative Agent or any such Bank may impose.
(vi)    No opinion is expressed herein as to Section 9.7 (Adjustments; Set-Off), Section 9.15(c) (Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers), Section 9.17 (Waivers of Jury Trial) or Section 9.19 (Judgment Currency) of the Credit Agreement (or any similar provision contained in any other Loan Document).

(vii)    We express no opinion as to the effect of (1) the compliance or noncompliance of any party to the Loan Documents with any state or federal laws or regulations applicable to that party because of that party’s business, (2) the failure of any party to the Loan Documents to be authorized to conduct business in any jurisdiction, or (3) compliance or non-compliance by any party to the Loan Documents, as a result of future discretionary acts by such party, with any provision of the Loan Documents.
In rendering our opinion set forth in Paragraph 1 above, as it pertains to the enforceability of the provisions contained in Section 9.14 (Governing Law) of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provisions contained in any of the other Loan Documents) pursuant to which the parties thereto agree that the laws of the State of New York shall govern such documents, we have relied on Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law, which states in pertinent part that, “The parties to any contract, agreement or undertaking, contingent or otherwise, in consideration of, or relating to any obligation arising out of a transaction covering in the aggregate not less than two hundred fifty thousand dollars, . . . may agree that the law of this state shall govern their rights and duties in whole or in part, whether or not such contract, agreement or undertaking bears a reasonable relation to this state.”  We express no opinion as to the extent of the connections of the parties to the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby to New York State.   We express no opinion as to the validity of the choice of New York law provisions in the Loan Documents except insofar as enforcement of the Loan Documents is sought in the courts of the State of New York.  For the purposes of our opinion set forth in Paragraph 1 above in respect of the Loan Documents, as it pertains to the enforceability of the provisions contained in Section 9.14 of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provisions contained in any of the Loan Documents) pursuant to which the parties thereto agree that the laws of the State of New York shall govern such documents, we have assumed that the parties did not enter into any Loan Document with knowledge or deliberate ignorance of the illegality of such document in its place of performance.
In rendering our opinion set forth in Paragraph 1 above, as it pertains to the enforceability of certain provisions contained in Section 9.15 (Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers) of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provisions contained in any of the Loan Documents) to the extent they relate to the submission by the parties thereto to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, we do not express any opinion as to whether the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York would have subject matter jurisdiction over an action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or the enforcement of any judgment, if there were not diversity of citizenship between the parties under 28 U.S.C. §1332.  In connection with the provisions of the Loan Documents which relate to forum selection (including any waiver of any objection to venue in any court or of any objection that a court is an inconvenient forum), we note that, under Section 510 of the New York Civil Practice Law and Rules, a New York state court may have discretion to transfer the place of trial and, under 28 U.S.C. §1404(a), a United States District Court has discretion to transfer an action from one United States District Court to another, and can exercise such discretion sua sponte.  In rendering our opinion in Paragraph 1 above with respect to Section 9.15 of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provisions 

contained in any of the Loan Document), we express no opinion as to whether an action could be brought in any court other than those specified therein.
With respect to our opinion in Paragraph 4 above, we have relied exclusively as to factual matters on a certificate of the Company dated the date of this letter.
Our opinions are premised upon there not being any facts or circumstances relevant to the opinions set forth herein not disclosed in the statements of governmental officials, representations made in or pursuant to the Credit Agreement and certificates of appropriate representatives of the Company upon which we have relied, as noted above. 
This opinion is being furnished only to you in connection with the execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement and is solely for your benefit and may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose or relied upon by any other person, firm or entity for any purpose or used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any purpose without our prior express written consent; provided that assignees that become Banks party to the Credit Agreement pursuant to Section 9.6(b) thereof may rely on this opinion as if addressed to them on the date hereof, on the condition and understanding that (i) this opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof as described below and (ii) any such reliance by a future assignee must be actual and reasonable under the circumstances existing at the time such person becomes an assignee, including any changes in law, facts or any other developments known to or reasonably knowable by such person at such time; and provided further that this opinion letter may be disclosed to bank or other governmental regulatory examiners with authority over a Bank on the condition that such disclosure is for the purpose of confirming the existence of this opinion letter and that such bank or other governmental regulatory examiners are not authorized to rely hereon. 
This opinion is being given as of the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to update or supplement this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances which may hereafter come to our attention with respect to the matters discussed herein, including any changes in applicable law which may hereafter occur.

Very truly yours,
