Not later than 1:00 P.M., Chicago time (in the case of any borrowing denominated in Dollars) or the Applicable Time (in the case of any borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency), on the date of a proposed borrowing, each Lender shall provide the Administrative Agent at the office specified by the Administrative Agent with immediately available funds in the applicable currency covering such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such borrowing and, so long as the Administrative Agent has not received written notice that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 12 with respect to such borrowing have not been satisfied, the Administrative Agent shall pay over the funds received by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers on the requested borrowing date.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent its respective share of such borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the respective Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest hereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the relevant Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.  If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such borrowing.  Each borrowing shall be on a Business Day.  Each Base Rate borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of

		at least $1,000,000 and an integral multiple of $500,000, and each LIBOR borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of at least $5,000,000 and an integral multiple of at least $1,000,000.
		

		
			2.2.3Conversion and Continuation Procedures.  (a) Subject to Section 2.2.1, the Borrowers may, upon irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent in accordance with clause (b) below:  (A) elect, as of any Business Day, to convert any Loans (or any part thereof in an aggregate amount not less than $5,000,000 a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000) into Loans of the other type; or (B) elect, as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, to continue any LIBOR Loans having Interest Periods expiring on such day (or any part thereof in an aggregate amount not less than $5,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000) for a new Interest Period; provided that after giving effect to any prepayment, conversion or continuation, the aggregate principal amount of each Group of LIBOR Loans shall be at least $5,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000.
		

		
			(b)The Borrowers shall give written notice (each such written notice, a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) substantially in the form of Exhibit E or telephonic notice (followed immediately by a Notice of Conversion/Continuation) to the Administrative Agent of each proposed conversion or continuation not later than (i) in the case of conversion into Base Rate Loans, 11:00 A.M., Chicago time, on the proposed date of such conversion and (ii) in the case of conversion into or continuation of LIBOR Loans, 11:00 A.M., Chicago time (in the case of any borrowing denominated in Dollars) or the Applicable Time (in the case of any borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency), at least three Business Days (at least four Business Days in the case of any borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency) prior to the proposed date of such conversion or continuation, specifying in each case; provided that no borrowings in an Alternative Currency may be converted into a Base Rate Loan:
		

		
			(A)the proposed date of conversion or continuation;
		

		
			(B)the aggregate amount of Loans to be converted or continued;
		

		
			(C)the type of Loans resulting from the proposed conversion or continuation; 
		

		
			(D)the currency of Loans to be converted or continued; and 
		

		
			(E)in the case of conversion into, or continuation of, LIBOR Loans, the duration of the requested Interest Period therefor.
		

		
			(c)If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to LIBOR Loans, the Borrowers have failed to select timely a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Loans, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected to convert such LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans effective on the last day of such Interest Period; provided, however, that in the case of a failure to timely request a continuation of an Interest Period with respect to a Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Loan shall be continued with an Interest Period of one month.
		

		
			(d)The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of a notice of conversion or continuation pursuant to this Section 2.2.3 or, if no timely notice is provided by the Borrowers, of the details of any automatic conversion.
		

		
			(e)Any conversion of a LIBOR Loan on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor shall be subject to Section 8.4.  Except as otherwise provided herein, no Loan may be converted into or continued as a Loan denominated in a different currency.

			2.2.4Swing Line Facility.
		

		
			(a)The Administrative Agent shall notify the Swing Line Lender upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of any Notice of Borrowing.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender may, in its sole discretion, make available from time to time until the Termination Date advances in Dollars (each, a “Swing Line Loan”) in accordance with any such notice, notwithstanding that after making a requested Swing Line Loan, the sum of the Swing Line Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Outstandings and all outstanding Swing Line Loans, may exceed the Swing Line Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitments.  The provisions of this Section 2.2.4 shall not relieve Lenders of their obligations to make Revolving Loans under Section 2.1.1;  provided that if the Swing Line Lender makes a Swing Line Loan pursuant to any such notice, such Swing Line Loan shall be in lieu of any Revolving Loan that otherwise may be made by the Lenders pursuant to such notice.  The aggregate amount of Swing Line Loans outstanding shall not exceed at any time Swing Line Availability.  Until the Termination Date, the US Borrowers may from time to time borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section 2.2.4.  Each Swing Line Loan shall be made pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing delivered by the US Borrowers to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.2.2.  Any such notice must be given no later than 2:00 P.M., Chicago time, on the Business Day of the proposed Swing Line Loan.  Unless the Swing Line Lender has received at least one Business Day’s prior written notice from the Required Lenders instructing it not to make a Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender shall, notwithstanding the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Section 12.2, be entitled to fund that Swing Line Loan, and to have such Lender make Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.2.4(c) or purchase participating interests in accordance with Section 2.2.4(d).  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, each Swing Line Loan shall constitute a Base Rate Loan unless the Swing Line Lender in its sole discretion shall offer, and the US Borrowers shall accept, a fixed interest rate (an “Offered Rate”) to be applicable thereto.  The US Borrowers shall repay the aggregate outstanding principal amount of each Swing Line Loan upon demand therefor by the Administrative Agent.
		

		
			(b)The entire unpaid balance of each Swing Line Loan and all other noncontingent Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Termination Date if not sooner paid in full.
		

		
			(c)The Swing Line Lender, at any time and from time to time, may on behalf of the US Borrowers (and each US Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so act on its behalf) request each Lender (including the Swing Line Lender) to make a Revolving Loan to the US Borrowers (which shall be a Base Rate Loan) in an amount equal to that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of all Swing Line Loans (the “Refunded Swing Line Loan”) outstanding on the date such notice is given.  Unless any of the events described in Section 13.1.3 has occurred (in which event the procedures of Section 2.2.4(d) shall apply) and regardless of whether the conditions precedent set forth in this Agreement to the making of a Revolving Loan are then satisfied, each Lender shall disburse directly to the Administrative Agent, its Pro Rata Share on behalf of the Swing Line Lender, prior to 2:00 P.M., Chicago time, in immediately available funds on the date that notice is given (provided that such notice is given by 12:00 p.m., Chicago time, on such date).  The proceeds of those Revolving Loans shall be immediately paid to the Swing Line Lender and applied to repay the Refunded Swing Line Loan.
		

		
			(d)If, prior to refunding a Swing Line Loan with a Revolving Loan pursuant to Section 2.2.4(c), one of the events described in Section 13.1.3 has occurred, then, subject to the provisions of Section 2.2.4(e) below, each Lender shall, on the date such Revolving Loan was to have been made for the benefit of the US Borrowers, purchase from the Swing Line Lender an undivided participation interest in the Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Loan.  Upon request, each Lender shall promptly transfer to the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation interest.
		

		 

		

			-  27 -

		

 

		
			(e)Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.2.4(c) and to purchase participation interests in accordance with Section 2.2.4(d) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, any US Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of any Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default; (iii) any inability of any US Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in this Agreement at any time or (iv) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.  If and to the extent any Lender shall not have made such amount available to the Administrative Agent or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, by 2:00 P.M., Chicago time, the amount required pursuant to Sections 2.2.4(c) or 2.2.4(d), as the case may be, on the Business Day on which such Lender receives notice from the Administrative Agent of such payment or disbursement (it being understood that any such notice received after noon, Chicago time, on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the next following Business Day), such Lender agrees to pay interest on such amount to the Administrative Agent for the Swing Line Lender’s account forthwith on demand, for each day from the date such amount was to have been delivered to the Administrative Agent to the date such amount is paid, at a rate per annum equal to (a) for the first three days after demand, the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect and (b) thereafter, the Base Rate from time to time in effect.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the dates specified herein.  If, for any reason, any Borrower is prohibited by any applicable Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, the applicable Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment amount.
		
2.3Letter of Credit Procedures
		
			.
		

		
			2.3.1L/C Applications.  The Borrowers shall give notice to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender of the proposed issuance of each Letter of Credit on a Business Day which is at least three Business Days (or such lesser number of days as the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender shall agree in any particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of issuance of such Letter of Credit.  Each such notice shall be accompanied by an L/C Application, duly executed by the Borrowers and in all respects satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender, together with such other documentation as the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender may request in support thereof, it being understood that each L/C Application shall specify, among other things, the date on which the proposed Letter of Credit is to be issued, the amount and currency thereof, the expiration date of such Letter of Credit and whether such Letter of Credit is to be transferable in whole or in part.  No Letter of Credit shall expire later than the earlier of (i) one year from the date of issuance or (ii) thirty (30) days prior to the scheduled Termination Date; provided, that annually renewable Letters of Credit may be issued with a final expiry date no later than the scheduled Termination Date; provided further a Letter of Credit may expire up to one (1) year beyond the Termination Date so long as such Letter of Credit is Cash Collateralized in an amount equal to 103% of the maximum face amount of such Letter of Credit calculated in accordance with Section 1.7 (provided that, with respect to any such Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Issuer Document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time).  Any Letter of Credit outstanding after the scheduled Termination Date which is Cash Collateralized for the benefit of the Issuing Lender shall be the sole responsibility of the Issuing Lender.  So long as the Issuing Lender has not received written notice that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 12 with respect to the issuance of such Letter of Credit have not been satisfied, 
		
		
 

		

			-  28 -

		

 

		but subject to Section 2.3.2 below, the Issuing Lender shall issue such Letter of Credit on the requested issuance date.  The Issuing Lender shall promptly advise the Administrative Agent of the issuance of each Letter of Credit and of any amendment thereto, extension thereof or event or circumstance changing the amount available for drawing thereunder.  In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of any L/C Application and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

		
		
			2.3.2Participations in Letters of Credit.  Concurrently with the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Lender with a Revolving Commitment, and each such Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from the Issuing Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share, in such Letter of Credit and the US Borrowers’ reimbursement obligations with respect thereto.  If the Borrowers do not pay any reimbursement obligation when due, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have immediately requested that the Lenders make a Revolving Loan which is a Base Rate Loan in a principal amount equal to such reimbursement obligations.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify such Lenders of such deemed request and, without the necessity of compliance with the requirements of Section 2.2.2,  Section 12.2 or otherwise such Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of such Loan.  The proceeds of such Loan shall be paid over by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Lender for the account of the Borrowers in satisfaction of such reimbursement obligations.  For the purposes of this Agreement, the unparticipated portion of each Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the Issuing Lender’s “participation” therein.  The Issuing Lender hereby agrees, upon request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, to deliver to the Administrative Agent or such Lender a list of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender, together with such information related thereto as the Administrative Agent or such Lender may reasonably request.
		

		
			2.3.3Reimbursement Obligations.
		

		
			(a)In the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in Dollars, the US Borrowers hereby unconditionally and irrevocably, and jointly and severally, agree to reimburse the Issuing Lender in Dollars for each payment or disbursement made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit honoring any demand for payment made by the beneficiary thereunder, in each case on the date that such payment or disbursement is made.  In the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the US Borrowers hereby unconditionally, and jointly and severally agree, and the Non-US Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably, and severally agrees, to reimburse the Issuing Lender in such Alternative Currency.  Any amount not reimbursed on the date of such payment or disbursement shall bear interest from the date of such payment or disbursement to the date that the Issuing Lender is reimbursed by the Borrowers therefor, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate from time to time in effect plus the Base Rate Margin from time to time in effect plus, beginning on the third Business Day after receipt of notice from the Issuing Lender of such payment or disbursement, 2%.  The Issuing Lender shall notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent whenever any demand for payment is made under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereunder; provided that the failure of the Issuing Lender to so notify the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent shall not affect the rights of the Issuing Lender or the Lenders in any manner whatsoever.
		

		
			(b)The Borrowers’ reimbursement obligations hereunder shall be irrevocable and unconditional under all circumstances, including (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (b) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which any Loan Party may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with any Letter of Credit, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between any Loan Party and the beneficiary 
		

		 

		

			-  29 -

		

 

		named in any Letter of Credit), (c) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of any document which the Issuing Lender has determined complies on its face with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit, even if such document should later prove to have been forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein shall have been untrue or inaccurate in any respect, or (d) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms hereof.  Without limiting the foregoing, no action or omission whatsoever by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (excluding any Lender in its capacity as the Issuing Lender) under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or any related matters shall result in any liability of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to any Borrower, or relieve any Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder to any such Person.
		

		
			2.3.4Funding by Lenders to Issuing Lender.  If the Issuing Lender makes any payment or disbursement under any Letter of Credit and (a) the Borrowers have not reimbursed the Issuing Lender in full for such payment or disbursement by 11:00 A.M., Chicago time (in the case of any amounts denominated in Dollars) or London, England time (in the case of any amounts denominated in an Alternative Currency), on the date of such payment or disbursement, (b) a Revolving Loan in the applicable currency may not be made in accordance with Section 2.3.2 or (c) any reimbursement received by the Issuing Lender from the US Borrowers is or must be returned or rescinded upon or during any bankruptcy or reorganization of any US Borrower or otherwise, each other Lender with a Revolving Commitment shall be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender, in full or partial payment of the purchase price of its participation in such Letter of Credit, its Pro Rata Share of such payment or disbursement (but no such payment shall diminish the obligations of any Borrower under Section 2.3.3), and, upon notice from the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each other Lender thereof.  All payments shall be denominated in Dollars.  Each other Lender irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to so pay to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the Issuing Lender’s account the amount of such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such payment or disbursement.  If and to the extent any Lender shall not have made such amount available to the Administrative Agent by 2:00 P.M., Chicago time, on the Business Day on which such Lender receives notice from the Administrative Agent of such payment or disbursement (it being understood that any such notice received after noon, Chicago time, on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the next following Business Day), such Lender agrees to pay interest on such amount to the Administrative Agent for the Issuing Lender’s account forthwith on demand, for each day from the date such amount was to have been delivered to the Administrative Agent to the date such amount is paid, at a rate per annum equal to (a) for the first three days after demand, the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect and (b) thereafter, the Base Rate from time to time in effect.  Any Lender’s failure to make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of any such payment or disbursement shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such payment, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any such payment or disbursement.
		
2.3.5Applicability of ISP and UCP; Limitation of Liability
		
			.  Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Lender and the Borrowers when a Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the UCP shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuing Lender shall not be responsible to the Borrowers for, and the Issuing Lender’s rights and remedies against the Borrowers shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of the Issuing Lender required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the Law or any order of a jurisdiction where the Issuing Lender or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services

		Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice.
		
2.4Commitments Several
		
			.  The failure of any Lender to make a requested Loan on any date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation (if any) to make a Loan on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan to be made by such other Lender.
		
2.5Certain Conditions
		
			.  Except as otherwise provided in Sections 2.2.4 and 2.3.4 of this Agreement, no Lender shall have an obligation to make any Loan, or to permit the continuation of or any conversion into any LIBOR Loan, and the Issuing Lender shall not have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit, if an Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default exists.
		
2.6Defaulting Lenders
		
			.
		

		
			Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
		

		
			(a)fees pursuant to Section 5.1 shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender;
		

		
			(b)the Revolving Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder;
		

		
			(c)if any Swing Line Loans shall be outstanding or any L/C Obligations shall exist at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:
		

		
			(i)all or any part of the unfunded participations in and commitments with respect to such Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposure plus such Defaulting Lenders’ Loans and participations in and commitments with respect to Loans and Letters of Credit does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitments and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 12 are satisfied at such time; provided, that the fees payable to the Lenders on account of the Letters of Credit shall be determined taking into account such reallocation.
		

		
			(ii)if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the US Borrowers shall within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay the outstanding Swing Line Loans that were not reallocated and (y) second, Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the L/C Obligations for so long as such L/C Exposure is outstanding in an amount equal to 103% of the maximum face amount of such Letters of Credit calculated in accordance with Section 1.7;
		

		
			(iii)if the US Borrowers Cash Collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the US Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 5.2 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is Cash Collateralized as aforesaid; and
		

		 

		

			-  31 -

		

 

		
			(iv)if any Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is not Cash Collateralized pursuant to clause (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lender or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 5.2 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Lender until such L/C Exposure is Cash Collateralized as aforesaid;
		

		
			(d)so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue or modify any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of non-Defaulting Lenders and by Cash Collateral provided by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.6(c); and
		

		
			(e)any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 7.5 but excluding Section 8.7(b)) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated account and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder, (ii) second, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender hereunder, (iii) third, to the funding of any Revolving Loan or the funding or Cash Collateralization of any participating interest in any Swing Line Loan or Letter of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent, (iv) fourth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the US Borrowers, held in such account as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, (v) fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to any US Borrower or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such US Borrower or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement, and (vi) sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, that if such payment is a prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans or reimbursement obligations in respect of draws under Letters of Credit with respect to which the Issuing Lender has funded its participation obligations, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Loans of, and reimbursement obligations owed to, all Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any Loans, or Reimbursement Obligations owed to, any Defaulting Lender.
		

		
			In the event that the Administrative Agent, the US Borrowers, the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swing Line Exposure and L/C Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold the Revolving Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.  For purposes of this Section 2.6, (x) “Swing Line Exposure” shall mean, with respect to any Defaulting Lender at any time, such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate principal amount of all Swing Line Loans outstanding at such time and (y) “L/C Exposure” shall mean, with respect to any Defaulting Lender at any time, such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the L/C Obligations at such time.
		

		
			Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by any US Borrower of any of its rights or remedies (whether in equity or law) against any Lender which fails to fund any of its Loans hereunder at the time or in the amount required to be funded under the terms of this Agreement.

			(d)Any Lender may request that its Loans be evidenced by a promissory note substantially in the forms of Exhibit A-1, in the case of the Revolving Loans constituting US Obligations and Exhibit A-2 in the case of the Revolving Loans to the Non-US Borrower.

Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Revolving Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Pro Rata Share of such requested increase.  Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Revolving Commitment.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder.

		giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Loan Parties, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Loan Parties (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.

For the avoidance of doubt, an Assignment Agreement shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Section 7.6(g).
		

		
			SECTION 8INCREASED COSTS; SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR LIBOR LOANS.
		
8.1Increased Costs and Reduced Return
		
			.
		

		
			(a)If any Change in Law:
		

		
			(i)shall subject any Lender (or its Lending Office) or the Issuing Lender to any Tax with respect to its LIBOR Loans, its Notes, its Letters of Credit, or its participation in any thereof, any Reimbursement Obligations owed to it or its obligation to make LIBOR Loans, issue a Letter of Credit, or to participate therein, other than Indemnified Taxes, Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes; or 
		

		
			(ii)shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement (including any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding with respect to any LIBOR Loans any such requirement included in an applicable Reserve Percentage) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (or its Lending Office) or the Issuing Lender or shall impose on any Lender (or its Lending Office) or the Issuing Lender any other condition affecting its LIBOR Loans, its Notes, its Letters of Credit, or its participation in any thereof, any Reimbursement Obligation owed to it, or its obligation to make LIBOR Loans, or to issue a Letter of Credit, or to participate therein;
		

		
			and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (or its Lending Office) or the Issuing Lender of making or maintaining any LIBOR Loan, issuing or maintaining a Letter of Credit, or participating therein, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its Lending Office) or the Issuing Lender under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document with respect thereto, by an amount deemed by such Lender or Issuing Lender to be material, then, within 15 days after written demand by such Lender or Issuing Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), US Borrowers jointly and severally, and the Non-US Borrower severally, shall be obligated to pay to such 
		

		 

		

			-  43 -

		

 

		Lender or Issuing Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender for such increased cost or reduction, so long as such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is 180 days prior to the date on which such Lender first made demand therefor;  provided that, if any Change in Law giving rise to a demand hereunder is retroactive, then the foregoing 180-day period shall be extended to include the entire retroactive period contemplated by such Change in Law.
		

		
			(b)If a Lender or the Issuing Lender determines the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or the Issuing Lender, any Lending Installation of such Lender or the Issuing Lender, or any corporation controlling such Lender or the Issuing Lender is increased as a result of a Change in Law, then, within 15 days of written demand by such Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Borrowers shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Lender the amount necessary to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital which such Lender or the Issuing Lender determines is attributable to this Agreement, its Revolving Credit Exposure, its Commitment, and or its obligations to issue or participate in Letters of Credit, as the case may be, hereunder (after taking into account such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s policies as to capital adequacy).
		

		
			(c)A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Lender claiming compensation under this Section 8.1 and setting forth in reasonable detail the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  In determining such amount, such Lender or Issuing Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.
		
8.2Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair
		
			.  If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan:
		

		
			(a)the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be binding and conclusive on the Borrowers) that deposits in Dollars or the applicable Alternative Currency, as the case may be, (in applicable amounts) are not being offered to it in the applicable interbank market for such Interest Period or that by reason of circumstances affecting the applicable interbank market adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBO Rate; or
		

		
			(b)the Required Lenders advise the Administrative Agent that the LIBO Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of maintaining or funding LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period or that the making or funding of LIBOR Loans has become impracticable as a result of an event occurring after the date of this Agreement which in the opinion of such Lenders materially affects such Loans;
		

		
			then the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the other parties thereof and, so long as such circumstances shall continue, (i) no Lender shall be under any obligation to make or convert any Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans and (ii) on the last day of the current Interest Period for each LIBOR Loan, such Loan shall, unless then repaid in full, automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan.
		
8.3Changes in Law Rendering LIBOR Loans Unlawful
		
			.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, if at any time any Change in Law makes it unlawful for any Lender to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Loans (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency) or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restriction on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or take deposits of, Dollars or any Alternative Currency in the applicable interbank market, then such Lender shall promptly notify each of the other parties hereto and, so long as such circumstances shall continue, (a) such Lender shall have no obligation to make or continue LIBOR Loans in the affected currency or currencies, or in the case of LIBOR Loans in Dollars to convert any Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan (but shall make Base Rate Loans concurrently with the making of or conversion of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans by the Lenders which are not so affected, in each case 
		

		 

		

			-  44 -

		

 

		in an amount equal to the amount of LIBOR Loans which would be made or converted into by such Lender at such time in the absence of such circumstances) and (b) on the last day of the current Interest Period for each LIBOR Loan of such Lender (or, in any event, on such earlier date as may be required by the relevant law, regulation or interpretation), such LIBOR Loan shall, unless then repaid in full, automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan.  Each Base Rate Loan made by a Lender which, but for the circumstances described in the foregoing sentence, would be a LIBOR Loan (an “Affected Loan”) shall remain outstanding for the period corresponding to the Group of LIBOR Loans of which such Affected Loan would be a part absent such circumstances.
		
8.4Funding Losses
		
			.  The Borrowers hereby agree that upon written demand by any Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a reasonably detailed statement setting forth the basis for the amount being claimed, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Administrative Agent), the US Borrowers will jointly and severally indemnify with respect to all Loans and the Non-US Borrower will severally indemnify with respect to Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency such Lender against any net loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur (including any net loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain any LIBOR Loan), as reasonably determined by such Lender, as a result of (a) any payment, prepayment or conversion of any LIBOR Loan of such Lender on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Loan (including any conversion pursuant to Section 8.3) or (b) any failure of the Borrowers to borrow, convert or continue any Loan on a date specified therefor in a notice of borrowing, conversion or continuation pursuant to this Agreement.  For this purpose, all notices to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be irrevocable.
		
8.5Lending Offices
		
			.  Each Lender may, at its option, elect to make its Loans hereunder at the branch, office or affiliate specified on the appropriate signature page hereof (each a “Lending Office”) for each type of Loan available hereunder or at such other of its branches, offices or affiliates as it may from time to time elect and designate in a written notice to Borrowers and Administrative Agent; provided that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the Borrowers be required to compensate any Lender pursuant to Section 8.1 to the extent the amounts claimed thereunder arise from any election made by a Lender pursuant to this Section 8.5.  To the extent reasonably possible, a Lender shall designate an alternative branch or funding office with respect to its LIBOR Loans to reduce any liability of Borrowers to such Lender under Section 8.4 or to avoid the unavailability of LIBOR Loans under Section 8.3, so long as such designation is not otherwise disadvantageous to the Lender.
		
8.6Discretion of Lenders as to Manner of Funding
		
			.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of its Loans in any manner it sees fit, it being understood, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement all determinations hereunder shall be made as if such Lender had actually funded and maintained each LIBOR Loan during each Interest Period for such Loan through the purchase of deposits having a maturity corresponding to such Interest Period and bearing an interest rate equal to the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period.
		
8.7Mitigation of Circumstances; Replacement of Lenders
		
			.
		

		
			(a)Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge which will result in, and will use reasonable commercial efforts available to it (and not, in such Lender’s sole judgment, otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender) to mitigate or avoid, (i) any obligation by the Borrowers to pay any amount pursuant to Sections 7.6 or 8.1 or (ii) the occurrence of any circumstances described in Sections 8.2 or 8.3 (and, if any Lender has given notice of any such event described in clause (i) or (ii) above and thereafter such event ceases to exist, such Lender shall promptly so notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent).  Without limiting the 
		

		 

		

			-  45 -

		

 

		foregoing, each Lender will designate a different funding office if such designation will avoid (or reduce the cost to the Borrowers of) any event described in clause (i) or (ii) above and such designation will not, in such Lender’s sole judgment, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.
		

		
			(b)If the Borrowers become obligated to pay additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to Sections 7.6 or 8.1, or any Lender gives notice of the occurrence of any circumstances described in Sections 8.2 or 8.3, or any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the Borrowers may request and designate another Lender or bank which is acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender in their reasonable discretion (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (such other bank being called a “Replacement Lender”) to purchase the Loans of such Lender and such Lender’s rights hereunder, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Lender, for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans payable to such Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Loans and all accrued but unpaid fees owed to such Lender and any other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement at such time, and to assume all the obligations of such Lender hereunder, and, upon such purchase and assumption (pursuant to an Assignment Agreement), such Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights hereunder (other than rights with respect to indemnities and similar rights applicable to such Lender prior to the date of such purchase and assumption) and shall be relieved from all obligations to the Borrowers hereunder, and the Replacement Lender shall succeed to the rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder.
		
8.8Conclusiveness of Statements; Survival of Provisions
		
			.  Determinations and statements of any Lender pursuant to Sections 8.1,  8.2,  8.3 or 8.4 shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.  Lenders may use reasonable averaging and attribution methods in determining compensation under Sections 8.1 and 8.4, and, unless otherwise set forth herein, the provisions of such Sections shall survive repayment of the Obligations, cancellation of any Notes, expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and termination of this Agreement.

			SECTION 14THE AGENTS.
		
14.1Appointment and Authorization
		
			.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied 
		

		 

		

			-  66 -

		

 

		covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in other Loan Documents 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 merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.
		
14.2Issuing Lender
		
			.  The Issuing Lender shall act on behalf of the Lenders (according to their Pro Rata Shares) with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith.

14.3Delegation of Duties
		
			.  The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
		
14.4Exculpation of Administrative Agent
		
			.  None of the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except to the extent resulting from its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein as determined by a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Loan Party or Affiliate of any Borrower, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest therein), or for any failure of any Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its Obligations hereunder or thereunder.  The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Borrower or any Subsidiaries of any Borrower or Affiliates.
		
14.5Reliance by Administrative Agent
		
			.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, electronic mail message, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, confirmation from the Lenders of their obligation to indemnify the Administrative Agent against any and all liability and expense 
		

		 

		

			-  67 -

		

 

		which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.  The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon each Lender.  For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 12, each Lender 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 Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto.
		
14.6Notice of Default
		
			.  The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or any Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”.  The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice.  The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 13;  provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such request, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.
		
14.7Credit Decision
		
			.  Each Lender acknowledges that the Administrative Agent has not made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the Loan Parties, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender as to any matter, including whether the Administrative Agent has disclosed material information in its possession.  Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of an investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to any Borrower hereunder.  Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of each Borrower.  Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial or other condition or creditworthiness of any Borrower which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent.
		
14.8Indemnification
		
			.  Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Lender shall indemnify upon demand the Administrative Agent and its directors, officers, employees and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), according to its applicable Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities (as hereinafter defined); provided that no Lender shall be liable for any payment to any such Person of any portion of the Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined by a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the applicable Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  No action taken in accordance with the directions of the 
		

		 

		

			-  68 -

		

 

		Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section.  Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs and Indemnified Taxes) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrowers.  The undertaking in this Section shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes, expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit, any foreclosure under, or modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the Collateral Documents, termination of this Agreement and the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent.
		
14.9Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity
		
			.

Each Lender acknowledges that, pursuant to such activities, BMO or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any Borrower or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Borrower or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.  With respect to their Loans (if any), BMO and its Affiliates shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though BMO were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include BMO and its Affiliates, to the extent applicable, in their individual capacities.
		
14.10Successor Administrative Agent
		
			.  The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders.  If the Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall, with (so long as no Event of Default exists) the consent of the Borrowers (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders.  If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrowers, a successor agent from among the Lenders.  Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated.  After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 14 and Sections 15.5 and 15.16 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.  If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

15.1Waiver; Amendments
		
			.  No delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by any of them of any right, power or remedy preclude other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.  No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and acknowledged by Lenders having an aggregate Pro Rata Shares of not less than the aggregate Pro Rata Shares expressly designated herein with respect thereto or, in the absence of such designation as to any provision of this Agreement, by the Required Lenders, and then any such amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.  No amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall (a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (b) extend the date scheduled for payment of any principal (excluding mandatory prepayments) of or interest on the Loans or any fees payable hereunder without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (c) reduce the principal amount of any Loan, the rate of interest thereon or any fees payable hereunder, without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (except for (i) periodic adjustments of interest rates and fees resulting from a change in the Applicable Margin as provided for in this Agreement and (ii) any changes to any default rate payable under Section 4.1 or otherwise applicable during the existence of an Event of Default); (d) release any party from its obligations under the Guaranty or all or any substantial part of the Collateral granted under the Collateral Documents, (e) change the definitions of “Required Lenders” or “Alternative Currency”, (f) any provision of this Section 15.1 or (g) reduce the aggregate Pro Rata Share required to effect an amendment, modification, waiver or consent, without, in each case, the written consent of all Lenders.  No provision of Section 14 or other provision of this Agreement affecting the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such shall be amended, modified or waived without the consent of the Administrative Agent.  No provision of this Agreement relating to the rights or duties of the Issuing Lender in its capacity as such shall be amended, modified or waived without the consent of the Issuing Lender.  No provision of this Agreement relating to the rights or duties of the Swing Line Lender in its capacity as such shall be amended, modified or waived without the consent of the Swing Line Lender.  If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of each Lender, each Lender affected thereby or any other similar standard, the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then Landauer may elect to replace a Non‐Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement, provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to Landauer and the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an Assignment Agreement and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non- Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with assignment requirements as set forth in this Agreement, and (ii) Landauer shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (1) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by Landauer hereunder to and including the date of such termination, including without limitation payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 7.6 and 8.1, and (2) to the extent any such cost is actually incurred by such Lender, the amount of any breakage costs, if any, owing pursuant to Section 8.4.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender 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 Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender disproportionately adversely relative to other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

15.5Costs, Expenses and Taxes
		
			.  The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay on demand all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent (including (i) Attorney Costs of one primary counsel for the Administrative Agent and (ii) and any Indemnified Taxes) in connection with the preparation, execution, syndication, delivery and administration (including perfection and protection of any Collateral and the costs of Intralinks (or other similar service), if applicable) of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and all other documents provided for herein or delivered or to be delivered hereunder or in connection herewith (including any amendment, supplement or waiver to any Loan Document), whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated, and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including (i) Attorney Costs of one primary counsel for the Administrative Agent and one counsel for all of the Lenders other than the Administrative Agent, taken as a whole, and in the case of an actual or reasonably perceived potential conflict of interest, one additional counsel for each group of affected Lenders similarly situated, taken as a whole and (ii) any Indemnified Taxes) incurred by the Administrative Agent and each Lender after an Event of Default in connection with the collection of the Obligations or the enforcement of this Agreement the other Loan Documents or any such other documents or during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect thereof.

			15.6.1Assignments.
		

		
			(a)Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Persons all or any portion of such Lender’s Loans and Commitments, with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender (for an assignment of the Revolving Loans and the Revolving Commitments) and, so long as no Event of Default exists, the Borrowers (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required for an assignment by a Lender to an Eligible Assignee).  Except as the Administrative Agent may otherwise agree, any such assignment shall be in a minimum aggregate amount equal to $5,000,000 or, if less, the remaining Commitment and Loans held by the assigning Lender.  The Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interests so assigned to an Assignee until the Administrative Agent shall have received and accepted an effective assignment agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto (an “Assignment Agreement”) executed, delivered and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto and a processing fee of $3,500.  No assignment may be made to any Person if at the time of such assignment the Borrowers would be obligated to pay any greater amount under Sections 7.6 or 8 to the Assignee than the Borrowers are then obligated to pay to the assigning Lender under such Sections (and if any assignment is made in violation of the foregoing, the Borrowers will not be required to pay such greater amounts).  Any attempted assignment not made in accordance with this Section 15.6.1 shall be treated as the sale of a participation under Section 15.6.2.  The Borrowers shall be deemed to have granted their consent to any assignment requiring their consent hereunder unless the Borrowers have expressly objected to such assignment within five (5) Business Days after notice thereof.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Assignee which is not an Eligible Assignee shall be entitled to any voting or approval rights under this Agreement unless all Lenders have consented to the assignment to such Assignee.
		

		
			(b)From and after the date on which the conditions described above have been met, (i) such Assignee shall be deemed automatically to have become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to such Assignee pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (ii) the assigning Lender, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall be released from its rights (other than its indemnification rights) and obligations hereunder.  Upon the request of the Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) pursuant to an effective Assignment Agreement, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent for delivery to the Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) a Note in the principal amount of the Assignee’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitments (and, as applicable, a Note in the principal amount of the Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitments retained by the assigning Lender).  Each such Note shall be dated the effective date of such assignment.  Upon receipt by the assigning Lender of such Note, the assigning Lender shall return to the Borrowers any prior Note held by it.
		

		
			(c)Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
		

		
			15.6.2Participations.  Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more Persons participating interests in its Loans, Commitments or other interests hereunder (any such Person, a “Participant”).  In the event of a sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, (a) such Lender’s obligations hereunder shall remain unchanged for all purposes, (b) the Borrowers and the Administrative

		Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder and (c) all amounts payable by the Borrowers shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation and shall be paid directly to such Lender.  No Participant shall have any direct or indirect voting rights hereunder except with respect to any event described in Section 15.1 expressly requiring the unanimous vote of all Lenders or, as applicable, all affected Lenders.  Each Lender agrees to incorporate the requirements of the preceding sentence into each participation agreement which such Lender enters into with any Participant.  Each Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and payable (as a result of acceleration or otherwise), each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and with respect to any Letter of Credit to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement; provided that such right of set-off shall be subject to the obligation of each Participant to share with the Lenders, and the Lenders agree to share with each Participant, as provided in Section 7.5.  Each Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 7.6 or 8 as if it were a Lender (provided that on the date of the participation no Participant shall be entitled to any greater compensation pursuant to Section 7.6 or 8 than would have been paid to the participating Lender on such date if no participation had been sold and that each Participant complies with Section 7.6(d) as if it were an Assignee).

		15.7Register
		
			.  The Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered and accepted by it and register (the “Register”) for the recordation of names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of each Lender from time to time and whether such Lender is the original Lender or the Assignee.  No assignment shall be effective unless and until the Assignment Agreement is accepted and registered in the Register.

The Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability of any kind with respect to any Lender with respect to the maintenance of the Register.

			(d)Each Borrower waives any defense by reason of any other Borrower’s or any other person’s defense (other than the defense of payment), disability, or release from liability.

			(e)Each Borrower agrees that it is solely responsible for keeping itself informed as to the financial condition of the other Borrowers and of all circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment.

			(i)Each Borrower waives any right to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to proceed against any other Borrower or any other person; proceed against or exhaust any security; or pursue any other remedy.

			(j)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Non-US Borrower shall be liable hereunder or under any other Loan Document for any Obligations other than Non-US Obligations. 
		
15.11Severability
		
			.

15.12Nature of Remedies
		
			.  All Obligations of the Borrowers and rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders expressed herein or in any other Loan Document shall be in addition to and not in limitation of those provided by applicable law.

15.13Entire Agreement
		
			.  This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, embodies the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings of such Persons, verbal or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof (except as relates to the fees described in Section 5.3) and any prior arrangements made with respect to the payment by the Borrowers of (or any indemnification for) any fees, costs or expenses payable to or incurred (or to be incurred) by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders.

$100,000.00
MONTHLY PAYMENTS

 

$2,000,000.00
July 15, 2017

 

FOR
VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, ICTV BRANDS, INC. (the “Maker”) promises to pay to the order of LEOGROUP
PRIVATE INVESTMENT ACCESS, LLC (the “Holder”), and their assigns, the maximum principal amount of Two Million
and 00/100 DOLLARS ($2,000,000.00) by January 15, 2020 (the “Maturity Date”).

 

To
secure the payment or performance, as the case may be, in full of the obligations under this Note, Maker has granted a first priority
security interest to the Holder in ALL assets of the Maker except Maker’s accounts receivables. Also, Maker hereby
pledges all equity of the Maker to Holder. Maker further grants Holder the right to make any and all UCC filings necessary to
properly perfect the security interest granted herein.

 

Section
1. Monthly Payments of $100,000.00 for 30-Month Term

 

A.
Generally. Maker promises to pay $100,000.00 each month pursuant to the “Payment Schedule” (see attached
Exhibit A) which consists of both principal (“Principal”) and interest (“Interest”) payable each
month for a 30-Month Term through the Maturity Date. All payments hereunder shall be paid on or before the dates indicated in
the Payment Schedule and, if any such date shall not be a Business Day (as defined below), on the next succeeding Business Day
to occur after such date (each date upon which principal and interest shall be so payable, a “Payment Date”).
In addition, in the event of any prepayment of principal of this Note, such prepayment shall be accompanied by the interest accrued
on the amount so prepaid. The term “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or other
day on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law or executive order to close.

 

    	1 

    	 

    

 

B.
Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1, but subject to applicable law, (i) any overdue
principal of this Note if the same shall not be cured within five (5) business days after written notice from Holder to Maker
or a longer period if set forth in the notice from Holder or a longer period if agreed to by the parties, and (ii) any overdue
accrued interest under this Note if the same shall not be cured within five (5) business days after written notice from Holder
to Maker or a longer period if set forth in the notice from Holder or a longer period if agreed to by the parties, which Maker
shall have failed to pay on or prior to that date which is thirty (30) Business Days after the same is due and payable, each shall
bear interest, payable on demand in immediately available funds, for each day from the date payment thereof was due through the
date of actual payment, the effective interest rate will double (the “Default Rate”). Once the payment is made on
any amounts subject to the Default Rate, the interest rate returns to the standard interest rate pursuant to the Payment Schedule.

 

C.
No Usurious Interest. In the event that any interest rate(s) provided for in this Section 1 shall be determined to be unlawful,
such interest rate(s) shall be computed at the highest rate permitted by applicable law. Any payment by the Maker of any interest
amount in excess of that permitted by law shall be considered a mistake, with the excess being applied to the principal amount
of this Note without prepayment premium or penalty; if no such principal amount is outstanding, such excess shall be returned
to the Maker.

 

Section
2. Conversion Rights. There are no conversion rights attached to this Note.

 

Section
3. Repayment of Principal Amount. The principal amount of this Note (together with all accrued and unpaid interest, if
any) shall be paid pursuant to the Payment Schedule such that the entire Note shall be repaid by the Maturity Date.

 

Section
4. Prepayment. This Note may not be prepaid, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, unless expressly agreed
to in writing by the Holder.

 

Section
