pursuant to Section 11(a)(2), Section 13, or otherwise for any capital stock, whether Common Shares or other equity interests, nor will such execution, acquisition, or consummation result in the occurrence of a Shares Acquisition Date, a
Distribution Date, or any other separation of the Rights from the underlying Common Shares or require or permit the Rights to be

evidenced by, or to be transferable pursuant to, certificates separate from certificates for the Common Shares, nor entitle or permit the holders of the Rights to exercise the Rights or otherwise
affect the rights of the holders of the Rights, including giving the holders of the Rights the right to acquire any capital stock, cash, or other property of any party to the Merger Agreement or any Affiliate of Parent or Merger Sub. Notwithstanding

For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in this Section 3.01, each party hereto shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with each document or other matter required hereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to such party hereto unless the Successor Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such party prior to the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, specifying its objection thereto.
3.02    Resignation of Current Administrative Agent and Current Swingline Lender; Appointment of Successor Administrative Agent and Successor Swingline Lender.
(a)     (i) Pursuant to Section 8.06 of the Credit Agreement, the Current Administrative Agent hereby gives notice of its resignation as administrative agent, on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, and the Current Swingline Lender hereby gives notice of its resignation as swingline lender, effective on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, (ii) the Required Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement) hereby appoint the Successor Administrative Agent as successor Administrative Agent effective as of the MWE 

6

Acquisition Closing Date, and the Borrower hereby consents to such appointment, and the Successor Administrative Agent hereby accepts such appointment effective as of such date, and (iii) the Current Swingline Lender, the Successor Swingline Lender and the Borrower agree that that the Successor Swingline Lender shall be the Swingline Lender under the Credit Agreement effective as of the MWE Acquisition Closing Date.  The actions pursuant to this Section 3.02(a) shall be effective on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, immediately before the effectiveness of the amendments set forth in Section 3.03 of this Agreement.
(b)    The parties to this Agreement agree that the resignation notice given by the Current Administrative Agent and the Current Swingline Lender pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of Section 8.06 of the Credit Agreement, and to the extent that the Credit Agreement may contain requirements for any additional or other notice, such requirements are hereby waived.
(c)    The Current Administrative Agent, the Current Swingline Lender and their respective Related Parties will continue to have, after the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, the benefits of, and the rights under, the provisions of Article VIII (The Administrative Agent) and Section 10.03 (Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver) of the Credit Agreement in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the Current Administrative Agent was acting as administrative agent (including, in connection with the transitioning of the role of the Current Administrative Agent to the Successor Administrative Agent) and while the Current Swingline Lender was acting as swingline lender.
(d)    The Current Administrative Agent agrees that notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.06 of the Credit Agreement, nothing in this Agreement constitutes a resignation by Citibank, N.A. as an Issuing Bank.
3.03    Amendments to the Credit Agreement.  Effective on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, the Credit Agreement, including the cover page thereto and all schedules and exhibits thereto, shall be amended by revising the provisions thereof with the result that the amended Credit Agreement is in the form set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.

(a)    The Revolving Credit Lenders named on Amended Schedule 2.01,  the Issuing Banks named in the Amended Credit Agreement, the Successor Swingline Lender, the Successor Administrative Agent and the Borrower agree that effective on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments under and as defined in the Credit Agreement as amended hereby shall be increased (the “Revolving Credit Facility Increase”) as set forth in Amended Schedule 2.01, and the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Revolving Credit Lender under and as defined in the Credit Agreement as amended hereby shall be in the amount as set forth on Amended Schedule 2.01.  Each New Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that effective on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date it shall be a Revolving Credit Lender under and as defined in the Credit Agreement as amended hereby and shall have a Revolving Credit Commitment in the amount set forth opposite its name on Amended Schedule 2.01.  
(b)    Each Issuing Bank named in the Amended Credit Agreement agrees that effective on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date it shall act as an Issuing Bank pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.  Effective as of the MWE Acquisition Closing Date the Applicable Percentages of the Revolving Credit Lenders under and as defined in the Credit Agreement as amended hereby (and their participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans as therein defined) shall automatically be redetermined after giving effect to the Revolving Credit Facility Increase. Each New 

7

Revolving Credit Lender and each Increasing Lender party hereto acknowledges and agrees that effective as of the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, without any further action on the part of any Issuing Bank, each Issuing Bank shall have granted to such Increasing Lender and such New Revolving Credit Lender, and such Increasing Revolving Credit Lender and such New Revolving Credit Lender shall have acquired from such Issuing Bank, a participation in each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank and outstanding on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (as automatically redetermined on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date after giving effect to the Revolving Credit Facility Increase) of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. 
(c)    Each New Revolving Credit Lender represents and agrees as follows: (i) it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement, and has received or has been accorded the opportunity to receive copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 thereof, and such other documents and information as it deems appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the Credit Agreement as amended hereby, (ii) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Current Administrative Agent, the Successor Administrative Agent, any other agent, any Lender or any arranger or bookrunner, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the Amended Credit Agreement, and (iii) it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Credit Agreement as amended hereby are required to be performed by it as a Lender.
(d)    Each Existing Revolving Credit Lender party hereto waives any charges that may otherwise be due under Section 2.15 of the Credit Agreement that may be due by reason of the prepayment of Loans on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date.
(e)    Each Revolving Credit Lender named on Amended Schedule 2.01, each Issuing Bank named in the Amended Credit Agreement, the Successor Administrative Agent and the Borrower hereby agree that, effective on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, the Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute and be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement.
3.05    Departing Revolving Credit Lenders: Assignment and Waiver of Breakfunding Charges.   
(a)    Each signatory hereto that is a Departing Revolving Credit Lender assigns its Revolving Credit Commitment to the New Revolving Credit Lenders and to the Increasing Revolving Credit Lenders, effective on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, and the New Revolving Credit Lenders and the Increasing Revolving Credit Lenders assume such Revolving Credit Commitments, effective on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, in the proportions and to the extent necessary to achieve the allocation of Revolving Credit Commitments as set forth in Amended Schedule 2.01 and as described in Sections 3.04(a) and (b) of this Agreement.  
(b)     Effective from and after the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, a party hereto that is a Departing Revolving Credit Lender shall not have any commitment to make Revolving Credit Loans or to purchase participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans under the Credit Agreement. The foregoing shall not affect such party’s rights or obligations under the Credit Agreement as a Term Loan Lender.
(c)    Each Departing Revolving Credit Lender waives any charges under Section 2.15 of the Credit Agreement that may be due by reason of the prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date.

This Closing Certificate (this “Certificate”) is delivered pursuant to Section 3.01(f) of that certain Amendment Agreement, dated as of October 27, 2015 (the “Amendment Agreement”), among MPLX LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Borrower”), Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Current Administrative Agent”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as successor administrative agent  (the “Successor Administrative Agent”) and the other institutions party thereto.  Capitalized terms used herein and not defined shall have the meanings attributed to them in the Amendment Agreement.  

The undersigned, Thomas Kaczynski, Vice President of Finance and Treasurer of MPLX GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which is the general partner of the Borrower, does hereby certify on behalf of the Borrower that, both before and immediately after giving effect to the Amendment Agreement on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date:

		
	1.
	The MWE Acquisition and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement have been consummated in accordance in all material respects with applicable law, and in accordance with the Merger Agreement without giving effect to any modifications, amendments, consents or waivers by the Borrower made after the Amendment Agreement Execution Date that are, individually or in the aggregate, adverse to the Lenders in any material respect.

		
	2.
	The representations and warranties of the Borrower [(and the other Loan Parties)] set forth in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, before and after giving effect to the MWE Acquisition and any Loans advanced on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, except to the extent any such representations and warranties are expressly limited to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties continue to be true and correct in all material respects as of such specified earlier date (provided that, in each case, such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof).

		
	3.
	Before and after giving effect to the MWE Acquisition and any Borrowing, on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, no Default has occurred and is continuing.

For purposes of the foregoing, (a) if only one Applicable Rating is available, such available Applicable Rating will govern; (b) if at any time there is more than one Applicable Rating and such Applicable Ratings are different (i) if three Applicable Ratings are available either (x) the majority Applicable Rating will govern if two Applicable Ratings are the same, or (y) the middle Applicable Rating will govern if all three Applicable Ratings differ, and (ii) if only two Applicable Ratings are available, the higher Applicable Rating will govern, unless one of the Applicable Ratings is two or more Levels lower than the other in which case the Applicable Rate shall be determined by reference to the Level one rating lower than the higher of the two ratings; (c) for any day after the Rating Date when no Applicable Rating is in effect, the Applicable Rate, Letter of Credit Fee and Commitment Fee shall be the rates set forth opposite Pricing Level 5; and (d) if the ratings established by Moody’s, S&P or Fitch for the Borrower’s Index Debt shall be changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating system of Moody’s, S&P or Fitch), such change shall be effective as of the date on which it is first announced by the applicable rating agency, irrespective of when notice of such change shall have been furnished by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Section 5.01 or otherwise.  Each change in the Applicable Rate shall apply during the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change.
If the rating system of Moody’s, S&P or Fitch shall change, or if any of such rating agencies shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith to amend this definition to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings from such 

3

rating agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable Rate shall be determined by reference to the rating most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation.
If at any time after the Rating Date all of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch shall at any time fail to have in effect a rating for the Borrower’s Index Debt (other than by reason of the circumstances referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph of this definition), the Borrower may seek and obtain a rating of the Facilities from Moody’s, and/or S&P (and, at Borrower’s option, Fitch), and on and after the date on which such rating of the Facilities by S&P or Moody’s is obtained until such time (if any) that a rating for the Borrower’s Index Debt becomes effective again, the Applicable Rate shall be based on such rating or ratings of the Facilities (provided that if ratings of the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan Facility are not the same, or if the Term Loan Facility is not rated, then the Applicable Rate shall be based on the rating of the Revolving Credit Facility), in each case in the same manner as provided herein with respect to the ratings for the Borrower’s Index Debt.
“Applicable Rating” shall mean, for each of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch, (a) the rating assigned by such rating agency to the Borrower’s Index Debt, or (b) if such rating agency shall not have in effect a rating referred to in the preceding clause (a), then the rating assigned by such rating agency to the Facilities.
“Approved Fund” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 10.04.
“Arrangers” means (a) the Arrangers for the amended and increased Revolving Credit Commitments effective on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date: Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, RBC Capital Markets and Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., and (b) the Arrangers for the Revolving Credit Commitments in effect prior to the MWE Acquisition Closing Date and the Term Loan Commitments: Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Barclays Bank PLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and RBS Securities Inc.
“Assignment and Assumption” means an assignment and assumption entered into by a Lender and an assignee (with the consent of any party whose consent is required by Section 10.04), and accepted by the Administrative Agent, in the form of Exhibit A or any other form approved by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower.
“Attributable Debt” means, as of any date of determination, the present value (discounted semiannually at an interest rate implicit in the terms of the relevant lease) of the obligation of a lessee for rental payments pursuant to any Sale and Leaseback Transaction (reduced by the amount of the rental obligations of any sublessee of all or part of the same property) during the remaining term of such Sale and Leaseback Transaction (including any period for which the lease relating thereto has been extended), such rental payments not to include amounts payable by the lessee for maintenance and repairs, insurance, taxes, assessments and similar charges and for contingent rents (such as those based on sales).  In the case of any Sale and Leaseback Transaction in which the lease is terminable by the lessee upon the payment of a penalty, such rental payments shall be considered for purposes of this definition to be the lesser of (a) the rental payments to be paid under such Sale and Leaseback Transaction until the first date (after the date of such determination) upon which it may be so terminated plus the then applicable penalty upon such termination and (b) the rental payments required to be paid during the remaining term of such Sale and Leaseback Transaction (assuming such termination provision is not exercised).
“Availability Period” means (a) in respect of Revolving Credit Loans, Letters of Credit and the Revolving Credit Facility, the period from and including the Closing Date to the earliest of (i) the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and (ii) the date of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this 

4

Agreement, and (b) in respect of the Term Loan Facility, the Availability Period expired on the Term Loan Draw Date. 
“Bankruptcy Event” means, with respect to any Person, that such Person becomes the subject of a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation or similar proceeding, or has had a receiver, conservator, trustee, administrator, custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar Person charged with the reorganization or liquidation of its business appointed for it (including the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other state or federal regulatory authority acting in such a capacity), or, in the good faith determination of the Administrative Agent, has taken any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of, or acquiescence in, any such proceeding or appointment; provided that a Bankruptcy Event shall not result solely by virtue of any ownership interest, or the acquisition of any ownership interest, in such Person by a Governmental Authority, so long as such ownership interest does not result in or provide such Person with immunity from the jurisdiction of courts within the United States or from the enforcement of judgments or writs of attachment on its assets or permit such Person (or such Governmental Authority) to reject, repudiate, disavow or disaffirm any contracts or agreements made by such Person.
“Board” means the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States of America.
“Borrower” means MPLX LP, a Delaware limited partnership.

The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by each Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, (iv) any force majeure or other event that under any rule of law or uniform practices to which any Letter of Credit is subject (including Section 3.14 of ISP 98 or any successor publication of the International Chamber of Commerce) permits a drawing to be made under such Letter of Credit after the stated expiration date thereof or of the Revolving Credit Commitments or (v) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder.  Neither the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Credit Lenders or any Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing 

34

Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.  The parties hereto expressly agree that the applicable Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination unless a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined by a final, non-appealable judgment that such Issuing Bank was grossly negligent or acted with willful misconduct in connection with such determination.  In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, each Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.
(g)    Disbursement Procedures.  Each Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.  Such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone, fax or electronic mail (and, in the case of telephonic notice, promptly confirmed by hand delivery, fax or electronic mail) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.
(h)    Interim Interest.  If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans; provided that (i) if the Borrower makes such reimbursement on the date such LC Disbursement is made, interest shall accrue for such day if such reimbursement is made after 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on such day and (ii) if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.12(c) shall apply.  Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Revolving Credit Lender to the extent of such payment, and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand has been made, on the date on which the Borrower reimburses the applicable LC Disbursement in full.
(i)    Termination of an Issuing Bank.  Any Issuing Bank may be terminated at any time upon not less than 10 Business Days’ prior written notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of any such termination of an Issuing Bank.  After the termination of an Issuing Bank hereunder, such Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such termination, but shall not be required to amend, renew or extend any such Letter of Credit or to issue additional Letters of Credit.
(j)    Cash Collateralization.  If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Credit Lenders with LC Exposures representing greater than 50% of the Total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this 

35

paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account maintained with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Issuing Banks and Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the Total LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Section 7.01.  The Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral in accordance with this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.10(c) and Section 2.20.  Each such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.  The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account.  Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits (in the event any such investment is made pursuant to the following sentence), such deposits shall not bear interest.  The Administrative Agent shall not be required to invest any such deposits; provided that if the Administrative Agent elects to invest any such deposits, the Administrative Agent shall invest such deposits in one or more types of Cash Equivalents, and such investments shall be at the Borrower’s risk and expense.  Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account.  Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the Total LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Revolving Credit Loans has been accelerated (but subject to (i) the consent of the Revolving Credit Lenders with LC Exposures representing greater than 50% of the Total LC Exposure and (ii) in the case of any such application at a time when any Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender (but only if, after giving effect thereto, the remaining cash collateral shall be less than the aggregate LC Exposure of all the Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders) the consent of each Issuing Bank), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.  If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.  If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.10(c), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the Total Revolving Credit Exposure would not exceed the Revolving Credit Facility and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.  If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.20, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower as promptly as practicable to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, no Issuing Bank shall have any exposure in respect of any outstanding Letter of Credit that is not fully covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders and/or the remaining cash collateral and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
(k)    Issuing Bank Reports to the Administrative Agent.  Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall, in addition to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this Section, report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) periodic activity (for such period or recurrent periods as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent) in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancelations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) reasonably prior to the time that such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the stated amount of the Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amounts thereof shall have changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date and amount of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which the Borrower fails to 

36

reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount of such LC Disbursement and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.
(l)    LC Exposure Determination.  For all purposes of this Agreement, the amount of a Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof shall be deemed to be 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 the time of determination.
(m)    Independence.  The Borrower acknowledges that the rights and obligations of the applicable Issuing Bank under each Letter of Credit are independent of the existence, performance or nonperformance of any contract or arrangement underlying the Letter of Credit, including contracts or arrangements between such Issuing Bank and the Borrower and between Borrower and the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit.
(n)    Governing Rules.  The Borrower agrees that an Issuing Bank may issue a Letter of Credit subject to the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”) Publication No. 600 (2007 Revision) (the “UCP 600”) or, at an Issuing Bank’s option, such later revision thereof in effect at the time of issuance of the Letter of Credit (as so chosen for a Letter of Credit, the “UCP”) or the International Standby Practices 1998, ICC Publication No. 590 or, at an Issuing Bank’s option, such later revision thereof in effect at the time of issuance of the applicable Letter of Credit (as so chosen for the Letter of Credit, the “ISP”, and each of the UCP and the ISP, an “ICC Rule”).  An Issuing Bank’s privileges, rights and remedies under such ICC Rules shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, its privileges, rights and remedies expressly provided for herein.  The UCP and the ISP (or such later revision of either) shall serve, in the absence of proof to the contrary, as evidence of general banking usage with respect to the subject matter thereof.  The Borrower agrees that for matters not addressed by the chosen ICC Rule, the Letter of Credit shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of New York and applicable United States Federal laws.  If, at Borrower’s request, the Letter of Credit expressly chooses a state or country law other than New York State law and United States Federal law or is silent with respect to the choice of an ICC Rule or a governing law, an Issuing Bank shall not be liable for any payment, cost, expense or loss resulting from any action or inaction taken by such Issuing Bank if such action or inaction is or would be justified under an ICC Rule, New York law, applicable United States Federal law or the law governing the Letter of Credit.
SECTION 2.06    Funding of Borrowings.
(a)    Funding.  Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04.  The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly remitting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Credit Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank.
(b)    Presumption by Administrative Agent.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Eurodollar Borrowing (or in the case of any Borrowing of ABR Loans, prior to 2:00 p.m. New York City time, on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative 

37

Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective 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 Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the Loans comprising such Borrowing.  If the Borrower and such Lender shall both pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period.  If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.  Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.
SECTION 2.07    Interest Elections.
(a)    Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request.  Thereafter, the Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section.  The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.  This Section shall not apply to Borrowings of Swingline Loans, which may not be converted or continued.
(b)    To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone, fax or electronic mail by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election.  Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, fax or electronic mail to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request signed by the Borrower.
(c)    Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:
(i)    the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);
(ii)    the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;
(iii)    whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

38

(iv)    if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.
If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.
(d)    Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.
(e)    If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default under clause (h) or (i) of Section 7.01 has occurred and is continuing, or if any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, notifies the Borrower of the election to give effect to this sentence on account of such other Event of Default, then, in each such case, so long as such Event of Default is continuing, (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.
SECTION 2.08    Termination and Reduction of Commitments.
(a)    Unless previously terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (as it may be extended with respect to some or all of the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to Section 2.21(a)).  The Term Loan Commitments terminated on the Term Loan Draw Date.
(b)    The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $20,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the Total Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Revolving Credit Facility as a result thereof.  The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Term Loan Commitments; provided that each reduction of the Term Loan Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $10,000,000 and not less than $50,000,000.
(c)    The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof.  Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Revolving Credit Lenders and/or the Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, of the contents thereof.  Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the closing of one or more securities offerings, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.  Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent.  Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the applicable Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments.

39

SECTION 2.09    Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.
(a)    The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan of such Revolving Credit Lender on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, (ii) to the Swingline Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least two Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding, and (iii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Term Loan Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan of such Term Loan Lender on the Term Loan Maturity Date.
(b)    Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.
(c)    The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.
(d)    The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(e)    Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note.  In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and substantially in the form of (i) if such promissory note is in favor of a Revolving Credit Lender evidencing Revolving Credit Loans or Swingline Loans, Exhibit D-1, and (ii) if such promissory note is in favor of a Term Loan Lender evidencing a Term Loan, Exhibit D-2.  Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).
SECTION 2.10    Prepayment of Loans.
(a)    The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section.
(b)    The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone, fax or electronic mail (and, in the case of telephonic notice, promptly confirmed by hand delivery, fax or electronic mail) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the same Business Day as the date of prepayment, or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the same Business Day 

40

as the date of prepayment.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments or Term Loan Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.08.  Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Revolving Credit Lenders and/or the Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, of the contents thereof.  Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02.  Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing.  Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12.
(c)    If, on any date, the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Total Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the Revolving Credit Facility on such date, the Borrower shall, as soon as practicable and in any event within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, prepay the outstanding principal amount of any Revolving Credit Loans owing by the Borrower in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce the Total Revolving Credit Exposure to an amount not exceeding the Revolving Credit Facility on such date.  If any such excess remains after prepayment in full of the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, the Borrower shall provide cash collateral in the manner set forth in Section 2.05(j) in an amount equal to 100% of such excess.
SECTION 2.11    Fees.
(a)    Revolving Credit Commitment Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender a commitment fee (the “Revolving Credit Commitment Fees”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily amount (if any) by which the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Revolving Credit Lender exceeds the Revolving Credit Exposure of such Revolving Credit Lender during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the date on which such Revolving Credit Commitment terminates.  Accrued Revolving Credit Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year (each, “Commitment Fee Payment Date”) and on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date; provided that any accrued and unpaid Revolving Credit Commitment Fees outstanding after the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand.  All Revolving Credit Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).
(b)    Term Loan Commitment Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Term Loan Lender a commitment fee (the “Term Loan Commitment Fees”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily amount (if any) by which the Term Loan Commitment of such Term Loan Lender exceeds the aggregate principal amount outstanding of the Term Loans of such Term Loan Lender during the period from and including January 1, 2015, to but excluding the date on which such Term Loan Commitment terminates.  Accrued Term Loan Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on the Term Loan Draw Date and on each Commitment Fee Payment Date, commencing March 31, 2015, and on the date on which the Term Loan Commitments otherwise terminate.  All Term Loan Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

41

(c)    Letters of Credit.  The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Loans on the average daily amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Revolving Credit Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, (ii) to each Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by it in the amount agreed between such Issuing Bank and the Borrower prior to the issuance of such Letter of Credit, and (iii) to each Issuing Bank, for its own account, such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder.  Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable in arrears on such last Business Day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand.  Any other fees payable to any Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 30 days after demand.  All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).  The amount of participation and fronting fees payable hereunder shall be set forth in a written invoice or other notice delivered to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent or, in the case of fronting fees, by the applicable Issuing Bank.
(d)    The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
(e)    All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders.  Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.
SECTION 2.12    Interest.
(a)    The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.
(b)    The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.
(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.000% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.000% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.
(d)    Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and on the Maturity Date of the Facility under which such Loan was made; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a voluntary prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to 

42

the Maturity Date), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.
(e)    All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).  The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
SECTION 2.13    Alternate Rate of Interest; Retroactive Adjustment of Applicable Rate.
(a)    Alternate Rate of Interest.  If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:
(i)    the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or
(ii)    the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;
then the Administrative Agent shall give written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any ABR Borrowing to, or continuation of any Eurodollar Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.
(b)    Retroactive Adjustment of Applicable Rate.  If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrower or for any other reason, (i) the ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated EBITDA as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated EBITDA would have resulted in different pricing for the applicable period, then (A) if the proper pricing for such period would have been higher, then the Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the applicable Issuing Banks, as the case may be, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period, and (B) if the proper pricing for such period would have been lower, the amount of any overpayment of interest and fees actually made shall, upon delivery of a certificate from a Responsible Officer of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent demonstrating the amount of such overpayment, be applied as a credit to all subsequent payments due from any Loan Party under any Loan Document to the Lenders that were party to this Agreement at the time of such overpayment, in accordance with each such Lender’s ratable share at the time of such overpayment, 

43

until the amount of such overpayment is eliminated.  This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank, as the case may be, under Section 2.05(e), Section 2.11(b) or Section 2.12(c) or under Article VII hereof.  The Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment of all Obligations hereunder.

44

SECTION 2.14    Increased Costs.
(a)    Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:
(i)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or any Issuing Bank;
(ii)    impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or
(iii)    subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b)    Capital Requirements.  If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines in good faith that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Issuing Bank or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered; provided that such Lender or such Issuing Bank is generally seeking, or intends generally to seek, compensation from similarly situated borrowers under similar credit facilities (to the extent such Lender 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.
(c)    Certificates for Reimbursement.  A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, including a description of the basis 

45

for such claim for compensation and a calculation of such amount or amounts, shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such 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 Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower in writing of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing 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 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
SECTION 2.15    Break Funding Payments.  In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure (other than as a result of the failure of a Lender to fund a Loan required to be funded hereunder) to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10(b) and is revoked in accordance therewith), (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18 or Section 2.21(c) or (e) the operation of Section 2.22 on any Incremental Commitment Effective Date, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event in accordance with the terms of this Section.  In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan (but not including the Applicable Rate applicable thereto), for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market.  A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section, including in reasonable detail a description of the basis for such compensation and a calculation of such amount or amounts, shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof.
SECTION 2.16    Taxes.
(a)    Withholding of Taxes; Gross-Up.  Each payment by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, unless such deduction or withholding is required by any applicable law.  If any Withholding Agent determines in good faith that it is required under applicable law to deduct or withhold any Tax from any such payment by such Withholding Agent, then such 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 such 

46

Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholding applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(b)    Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower and the other Loan Parties.  The Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(c)    Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.16, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(d)    Indemnification by the Loan Parties.  The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 20 days after demand therefore, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this paragraph) 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.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(e)    Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefore, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.04(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount then due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph.
(f)    Status of Lenders.
(i)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation 

47

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 Lender is subject to any backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.16(f)(ii)(A), Section 2.16(f)(ii)(B) and Section 2.16(f)(ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,
(A)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender 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 Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(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 copies of IRS Form 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-E establishing 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 copies 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 E-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or
(4)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-3 or Exhibit E-4, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a 

48

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 E-2 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies 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 Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)    if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this paragraph (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(iii)    Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.16 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(g)    Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.16 (including by the payment of additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section 2.16), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all 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 Section 2.16(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 paragraph, in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph the payment of which would place such indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld 

49

or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This Section 2.16(g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(h)    Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.16 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.
(i)    Defined Terms.  For purposes of this Section 2.16, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
SECTION 2.17    Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.
(a)    Except as provided in Section 2.05(e), the Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14, Section 2.15 or Section 2.16, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set off or counterclaim.  The Borrower shall make each reimbursement of LC Disbursements required to be made by it prior to the time for such payments set forth in Section 2.05(e).  Any amounts received after the time set forth above or in Section 2.05(e), as applicable, on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon.  All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent to such account of Administrative Agent in the United States as the Administrative Agent may specify from time to time, except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Section 2.14, Section 2.15, Section 2.16 and Section 10.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.  If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.  All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars.
(b)    If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.
(c)    If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its Applicable Percentage thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance 

50

with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline 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 paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including any payment made by the Borrower in connection with any extension of the Maturity Date in accordance with Section 2.21 or Section 2.22 or any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase in accordance with Section 2.23) or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).  Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation.
(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 Lenders or an Issuing Bank 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 Lenders or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
(e)    If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), Section 2.05(d) or (e), Section 2.06(b), Section 2.17(d) or Section 10.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to such Person under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.
SECTION 2.18    Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
(a)    Designation of a Different Lending Office.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or Section 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such 

51

Lender.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(b)    Replacement of Lenders.  If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 2.18(a), (ii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (iii) any Lender refuses to consent to any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or consent (herein referred to as a “Proposed Amendment”) with respect to any provision hereof that requires the unanimous approval of all Lenders, or the approval of each of the Lenders affected thereby (in each case in accordance with Section 10.02), and the consent of the Required Lenders, Required Revolving Credit Lenders or Required Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, shall have been obtained with respect to such amendment, modification, waiver or consent, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (including payment of any applicable processing and recordation fees), upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, (I) in the case of a Proposed Amendment that would require the consent of each Revolving Credit Lender or all Revolving Credit Lenders, require such Revolving Credit Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, or consents required by, Section 10.04), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.14 or Section 2.16) with respect to its Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments, and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents related thereto, to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment) and (II) in the case of a Proposed Amendment that would require the consent of each Term Loan Lender or all Term Loan Lenders, require such Term Loan Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, or consents required by, Section 10.04), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.14 or Section 2.16) with respect to its Term Loans, and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents related thereto, to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (A) the Borrower shall have (x) paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 10.04, and (y) received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent with respect to any assignee that is not already a Lender hereunder (and if a Revolving Credit Commitment or LC Exposure is being assigned, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Revolving Credit Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans (in the case of an assignment by a Revolving Credit Lender of its Revolving Credit Commitment and Revolving Credit Loans) or its Term Loans (in the case of an assignment by a Term Loan Lender of its Term Loans), in each case together with accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.15), from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (C) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments, (D) in the case of any such assignment resulting from the failure to provide a consent, the assignee shall have given such consent and, as a result of such assignment and any contemporaneous assignments and consents, the applicable amendment, modification, waiver or consent can be effected,  and (E) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law.  A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.  Each party hereto agrees that an assignment and delegation required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender required to make 

52

such assignment and delegation need not be a party thereto (it being understood and agreed that such Lender shall not be deemed to make the representations and warranties in such Assignment and Assumption if such Lender has not executed such Assignment and Assumption). In the case of an assignment pursuant to this Section by a Revolving Credit Lender that is an Issuing Bank, such Issuing Bank shall thereafter not be obligated to issue, amend or extend any Letter of Credit and if any Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank remain outstanding at such time, its rights as an Issuing Bank with respect to each such Letter of Credit, and the obligations of the Borrower and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect thereto, shall continue in full force and effect. 
SECTION 2.19    Illegality.  If any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its lending office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Loans or to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining ABR Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate component of the ABR Loan, the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the LIBO Rate component of the ABR Loan, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.  Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Loans of such Lender to ABR Loans (the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the LIBO Rate component of the ABR Loan), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the ABR Loan applicable to such Lender without reference to the LIBO Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate.  Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.
SECTION 2.20    Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding any provision of any Loan Document to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the provisions set forth in the following paragraphs (a) through (e) shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
(a)    commitment fees shall cease to accrue on the unused portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(a) and Section 2.11(b), as applicable;
(b)    (i) the unused Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit Exposure of each Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders (or each Lender), all Revolving Credit Lenders (or each Revolving Credit Lender), the Required Lenders or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document and (ii) the portion of the Term Loan Facility of each Defaulting Term Loan Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders (or each Lender), all Term Loan Lenders (or each Term Loan Lender), the Required Lenders or the Required Term Loan Lenders have taken or may take any action 

53

hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including, in each case, any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 10.02); provided that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification providing for an increase in a Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, providing for an extension of a Defaulting Lender’s Commitment (other than in determining whether the Required Revolving Credit Lenders or Required Term Loan Lenders have consented to the extension of a Maturity Date under Section 2.21 or Section 2.22, respectively) or requiring the consent of each Lender affected thereby (including pursuant to Section 10.02(b)(ii) and (iii)) if such Defaulting Lender is an affected Lender;
(c)    if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender, then:
(i)    the Swingline Exposure (other than any portion thereof with respect to which such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by Section 2.04(c)) and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender (other than any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements with respect to which such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by Section 2.05(d) and Section 2.05(e)) shall be reallocated (effective as of the date such Revolving Credit Lender becomes a Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender) among the Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (for the purposes of such reallocation, such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment shall be disregarded in determining the Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders’ respective Applicable Percentages), but only to the extent that (A) the sum of all Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure does not exceed the sum of all Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders’ Revolving Credit Commitments, and (B) after giving effect to any such reallocation, no Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure shall exceed such Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment;
(ii)    if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, within three Business Days following the Borrower’s receipt of written notice from the Administrative Agent, (A) first, prepay such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender’s Swingline Exposure that has not been reallocated and (B) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the applicable Issuing Banks only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender’s LC Exposure that has not been reallocated in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;
(iii)    if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(b) with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such portion of such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;
(iv)    if any portion of such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender’s LC Exposure is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then all Letter of Credit participation fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender under Section 2.11(b) with respect to such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender’s reallocated LC Exposure shall be payable to the Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with such Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders’ Applicable Percentages after giving effect to such reallocation; and

54

(v)    if all or any portion of such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Revolving Credit Lender hereunder, all Letter of Credit participation fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender under Section 2.11(b) with respect to such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender’s unreallocated LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Banks, ratably based on the portion of such LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by each Issuing Bank, until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above;
(d)    so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender’s then outstanding Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure, as applicable, will be 100% covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.20(c), and participating interests in any newly made Swingline Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.20(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender shall not participate therein);
(e)    in the event that a Bankruptcy Event with respect to any Lender Parent shall have occurred following the Closing Date and for so long as such Bankruptcy Event shall continue, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit, and the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan, unless such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or the applicable Lender reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder;
(f)    (i) in the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank each agrees that a Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Revolving Credit Lender to be a Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender, then the Swingline Exposures and LC Exposures of the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, and on such date such Revolving Credit Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Credit Loans of the other Revolving Credit Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Revolving Credit Lender to hold Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, and (ii) in the event that the Administrative Agent and the Borrower each agrees that a Defaulting Term Loan Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Term Loan Lender to be a Defaulting Term Loan Lender, then on such date such Term Loan Lender shall purchase at par such of the Term Loans of the other Term Loan Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Term Loan Lender to hold Term Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage; and
(g)    the rights and remedies against, and with respect to, a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.20 are in addition to, and cumulative and not in limitation of, all other rights and remedies that the Administrative Agent and each Lender, each Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender, the Borrower or any other Loan Party may at any time have against, or with respect to, such Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 2.21    Extension of Revolving Credit Maturity Date.
(a)    Request for Extension of Revolving Credit Facility.  Subject to Section 2.21(f) below, at any time, the Borrower, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, may request an extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date to the date that is one year after the then existing Revolving Credit Maturity Date (such existing Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the “Existing Revolving Credit Maturity Date”).  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of such request, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall, in turn, in its sole discretion, not later than 20 days after delivery of such notice by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders, notify the Administrative Agent in writing as to whether such Revolving Credit Lender consents to such extension.  If any Revolving Credit Lender shall fail to notify the Administrative Agent in writing of its consent to any such request for extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date within 20 days after the delivery of such notice by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders, such Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have not consented to such extension.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of the consents received with respect to the Borrower’s request for an extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.  The Revolving Credit Maturity Date may be extended pursuant to this Section 2.21 on no more than two separate instances during the term of this Agreement.
(b)    Revolving Credit Lender Elections to Extend.  If Revolving Credit Lenders constituting the Required Revolving Credit Lenders consent in writing to any such request in accordance with Section 2.21(a), the Revolving Credit Maturity Date shall be extended to the date which is one year after the Existing Revolving Credit Maturity Date as to those Revolving Credit Lenders that so consented (each, an “Extending Revolving Credit Lender”) but shall not be extended as to any Non-Extending Revolving Credit Lender; provided that no extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date pursuant to this Section shall become effective unless the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, dated as of the effective date of such extension, certifying that (i) as of and on such date, no Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of such date, except to the extent any such representations and warranties are expressly limited to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties continue to be true and correct in all material respects as of such specified earlier date (provided that, in the case of clause (ii) above, such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof).  To the extent that the Revolving Credit Maturity Date is not extended as to any Non-Extending Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to this Section 2.21 and the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Non-Extending Revolving Credit Lender is not assigned in accordance with Section 2.21(c) on or prior to the applicable Existing Revolving Credit Maturity Date, (A) the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Non-Extending Revolving Credit Lender to make Revolving Credit Loans and to purchase participations in Swingline Loans with respect to Swingline Loans made and Letters of Credit issued after such Existing Revolving Credit Maturity Date shall automatically terminate in whole on such Existing Revolving Credit Maturity Date without any further notice or other action by the Borrower, such Revolving Credit Lender or any other Person and (B) the principal amount of any outstanding Revolving Credit Loans made by Non-Extending Revolving Credit Lenders, together with any accrued interest thereon and any accrued fees and other amounts payable to or for the account of such Non-Extending Revolving Credit Lenders hereunder, shall be due and payable on such Existing Revolving Credit Maturity Date, and on such Existing Revolving Credit Maturity Date the Borrower shall also make such other prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.10 as shall be required in order that, after giving effect to the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments of, and all payments to, Non-Extending Revolving Credit Lenders pursuant to this sentence, the Total Revolving Credit Exposure would not exceed the Aggregate Commitments; provided that such Non-Extending Revolving Credit Lender’s rights under Section 

56

2.14, Section 2.15, Section 2.16 and Section 10.03, and its obligations under Section 10.03, shall survive such Existing Revolving Credit Maturity Date for such Revolving Credit Lender as to matters occurring prior to such date.  It is understood and agreed that no Revolving Credit Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to any request made by the Borrower for any requested extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.
(c)    Notification by Administrative Agent; Replacement of Non-Extending Revolving Credit Lenders.  If, pursuant to Section 2.21(a), the Borrower requests an extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and Revolving Credit Lenders constituting the Required Revolving Credit Lenders consent to such request, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (including payment of any applicable processing and recordation fees), require any Non-Extending Revolving Credit Lender, promptly following notice to such Non-Extending Revolving Credit Lender and the Administrative Agent, to assign its outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and assign and delegate, in each case without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations in respect of its Revolving Credit Commitment and its Revolving Credit Loans to a willing assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Revolving Credit Lender, if such Revolving Credit Lender accepts such assignment) and will agree to the applicable request for extension; provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent (which consent, in each case, shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed) of (x) each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender and (y) unless the assignee is already a Revolving Credit Lender, the Administrative Agent, (ii) such Non-Extending Revolving Credit Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Revolving Credit Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law. In the case of an assignment pursuant to this Section by a Revolving Credit Lender that is an Issuing Bank, such Issuing Bank shall thereafter not be obligated to issue, amend or extend any Letter of Credit and if any Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank remain outstanding at such time, its rights as an Issuing Bank with respect to each such Letter of Credit, and the obligations of the Borrower and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect thereto, shall continue in full force and effect.
(d)    Minimum Extension Requirement.  If Revolving Credit Lenders constituting the Required Revolving Credit Lenders consent in writing to a requested extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower, and the Existing Revolving Credit Maturity Date then in effect shall be extended, for such consenting Revolving Credit Lenders, for an additional one year, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the proviso in the first sentence of Section 2.21(b) and subject to compliance with Section 2.21(f).  All references in the Loan Documents to the “Revolving Credit Maturity Date” shall, solely with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit Exposure of each Extending Revolving Credit Lender (or its assignee(s) pursuant to Section 2.21(c)), mean the Revolving Credit Maturity Date as so extended.
(e)    Issuing Banks; Swingline Lender.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Availability Period with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility and the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (without taking into consideration any extension pursuant to this Section), as such terms are used in reference to any Issuing Bank or any Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender or any Swingline Loans made by the Swingline Lender, may not be extended without the prior written consent of such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as applicable (it being understood and agreed that, in the event any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender shall not have consented to any such extension, (i) such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank or the Swingline 

57

Lender, as applicable, hereunder through the applicable Existing Revolving Credit Maturity Date (or the Availability Period with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility determined on the basis thereof, as applicable), and thereafter shall have no obligation to issue, amend, extend or renew any Letter of Credit or to make any Swingline Loan, as applicable (but shall, in each case, continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.04, Section 2.05, Section 2.14, and Section 2.15, as applicable, as to Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans issued or made prior to such time), and (ii) the Borrower shall cause the Total LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank and the Swingline Exposure to be zero no later than the day on which such Total LC Exposure or Swingline Exposure, as applicable, would have been required to have been reduced to zero in accordance with the terms hereof without giving effect to any effectiveness of the extension of the applicable Existing Revolving Credit Maturity Date pursuant to this Section (and, in any event, no later than the applicable Existing Revolving Credit Maturity Date)).
(f)    Maximum Five-Year Revolving Credit Term.  After giving effect to any extension pursuant to this Section 2.21, the Revolving Credit Maturity Date may not be more than five (5) years after the effective date of such extension.
SECTION 2.22    Extension of Term Loan Maturity Date.
(a)    Request for Extension of Term Loan Facility.  At least 30 days prior to, but not more than 90 days prior to, any annual anniversary of the Term Loan Draw Date, the Borrower, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, may request an extension of the Term Loan Maturity Date to the date that is one year after the then existing Term Loan Maturity Date (such existing Term Loan Maturity Date, the “Existing Term Loan Maturity Date”).  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Term Loan Lender of such request, and each Term Loan Lender shall, in turn, in its sole discretion, not later than 20 days after delivery of such notice by the Administrative Agent to the Term Loan Lenders, notify the Administrative Agent in writing as to whether such Term Loan Lender consents to such extension.  If any Term Loan Lender shall fail to notify the Administrative Agent in writing of its consent to any such request for extension of the Term Loan Maturity Date within 20 days after the delivery of such notice by the Administrative Agent to the Term Loan Lenders, such Term Loan Lender shall be deemed to have not consented to such extension.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of the consents received with respect to the Borrower’s request for an extension of the Term Loan Maturity Date.  The Term Loan Maturity Date may be extended pursuant to this Section 2.22 on no more than two separate instances during the term of this Agreement.
(b)    Term Loan Lender Elections to Extend.  If Term Loan Lenders constituting the Required Term Loan Lenders consent in writing to any such request in accordance with Section 2.22(a), the Term Loan Maturity Date shall be extended to the date which is one year after the Existing Term Loan Maturity Date as to those Term Loan Lenders that so consented (each, an “Extending Term Loan Lender”) but shall not be extended as to any Non-Extending Term Loan Lender; provided that no extension of the Term Loan Maturity Date pursuant to this Section shall become effective unless the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, dated as of the effective date of such extension, certifying that (i) as of and on such date, no Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of such date, except to the extent any such representations and warranties are expressly limited to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties continue to be true and correct in all material respects as of such specified earlier date (provided that, in the case of clause (ii) above, such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof).  To the extent that the Term Loan Maturity Date is not extended as to any Non-Extending Term Loan Lender pursuant to this 

58

Section 2.22 and the Term Loan of such Non-Extending Term Loan Lender is not assigned in accordance with Section 2.22(c) on or prior to the applicable Existing Term Loan Maturity Date, the principal amount of any outstanding Term Loans made by Non-Extending Term Loan Lenders, together with any accrued interest thereon and any accrued fees and other amounts payable to or for the account of such Non-Extending Term Loan Lenders hereunder, shall be due and payable on such Existing Term Loan Maturity Date; provided that such Non-Extending Term Loan Lender’s rights under Section 2.14, Section 2.15, Section 2.16 and Section 10.03, and its obligations under Section 10.03, shall survive such Existing Term Loan Maturity Date for such Term Loan Lender as to matters occurring prior to such date.  It is understood and agreed that no Term Loan Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to any request made by the Borrower for any requested extension of the Term Loan Maturity Date.
(c)    Notification by Administrative Agent; Replacement of Non-Extending Term Loan Lenders.  If, pursuant to Section 2.22(a), the Borrower requests an extension of the Term Loan Maturity Date and Term Loan Lenders constituting the Required Term Loan Lenders consent to such request, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (including payment of any applicable processing and recordation fees), require any Non-Extending Term Loan Lender, promptly following notice to such Non-Extending Term Loan Lender and the Administrative Agent, to assign its outstanding Term Loans and assign and delegate, in each case without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Term Loans to a willing assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Term Loan Lender, if such Term Loan Lender accepts such assignment) and will agree to the applicable request for extension; provided that (i) unless the assignee is already a Term Loan Lender or an Affiliate of a Term Loan Lender, the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (to the extent such consent would be required pursuant to Section 10.04) which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed, (ii) such Non-Extending Term Loan Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Term Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law.
(d)    Minimum Extension Requirement.  If Term Loan Lenders constituting the Required Term Loan Lenders consent in writing to a requested extension of the Term Loan Maturity Date, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower, and the Existing Term Loan Maturity Date then in effect shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the proviso in the first sentence of Section 2.22(b), be extended for the additional one-year period as described in Section 2.22(b), and all references in the Loan Documents to the “Term Loan Maturity Date” shall, solely with respect to the Term Loans of each Extending Term Loan Lender and each assignee pursuant to Section 2.22(c) for such extension, refer to the Term Loan Maturity Date as so extended.
SECTION 2.23    Revolving Credit Commitment Increases.
(a)    Subject to Section 4.04, the Borrower and any one or more Revolving Credit Lenders (including New Revolving Credit Lenders (as defined below)) may, from time to time, without the consent of any other Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank (but with the consent of (i) the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank with respect to any New Revolving Credit Lender and  (ii) each Issuing Bank with respect to any increase of the Revolving Credit Commitment of any existing Lender, in each case such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), agree that such Revolving Credit Lenders (including New Revolving Credit Lenders) shall provide additional Revolving Credit Commitments or increase the amount of their Revolving Credit Commitments (each, a “Revolving Credit 

59

Commitment Increase”, and such Revolving Credit Lenders and New Revolving Credit Lenders being collectively referred to as the “Increasing Revolving Credit Lenders”) by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Commitment Activation Notice specifying (i) the amount of such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase and (ii) the proposed applicable Incremental Commitment Effective Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) the aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Commitment Increases obtained after the MWE Acquisition Closing Date shall not exceed $500,000,000 and (B) each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall be in an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $25,000,000.  No Revolving Credit Lender shall have any obligation to participate in any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion.

Each Loan Party will, and will cause each Subsidiary to, do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its legal existence and the rights, licenses, permits, privileges and franchises material to the conduct of its business; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit any merger, consolidation, liquidation or dissolution permitted under Section 6.03; and provided further that this Section 5.03 shall not require any Loan Party or any Subsidiary to preserve or maintain any rights, licenses, permits, privileges or franchises if the Borrower shall reasonably determine that (a) the preservation and maintenance thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Lenders, or (b) the failure to maintain and preserve the same would not reasonably be expected, in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

69

SECTION 5.04    Payment of Taxes and other Obligations.  Each Loan Party will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, pay, settle or discharge (a) its Tax liabilities, (b) its other governmental obligations and other lawful claims which, if unpaid, would reasonably be expected to result in a Lien upon any property of such Loan Party or such Subsidiary before the same shall become delinquent or in default, and (c) its Indebtedness as it shall become due, except in each case to the extent that (x) the validity or amount thereof is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and such Loan Party or such Subsidiary has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP or (y) the failure to make such payment would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION 5.05    Maintenance of Properties; Insurance.

SECTION 5.06    Books and Records; Inspection Rights.  Each Loan Party will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, keep proper books of record and account in which complete and accurate entries, in all material respects, are made of its financial and business transactions in conformity with GAAP and applicable law.  Each Loan Party will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, permit any representatives designated by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, at the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s expense unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in which case it shall be at the Borrower’s sole expense, upon reasonable prior notice and subject to any applicable restrictions or limitations on access to any facility or information that is classified or restricted by contract or by law, regulation or governmental guidelines, to visit and inspect its properties, to examine and make extracts from its books and records, and to discuss its affairs, finances and condition with its officers and independent accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as reasonably requested; provided that advance notice of any discussion with such independent accountants shall be given to the applicable Loan Party and, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall have the opportunity to be present at any such discussion.  The Administrative Agent and each Lender agree to keep all information obtained by them pursuant to this Section confidential in accordance with Section 10.13.
SECTION 5.07    Compliance with Laws.  Each Loan Party will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with all laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority (including ERISA and Environmental Laws) applicable to it or its property, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION 5.08    Use of Proceeds and Letters of Credit.  The proceeds of the Loans will be used only for working capital and general partnership, corporate or company purposes, as applicable, of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries, including acquisitions of and investments in Subsidiaries, Excluded Ventures and other Persons, and distributions.  No part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used, whether directly or indirectly, for any purpose that entails a violation of any of the Regulations of the Board, including Regulations T, U and X.  Letters of Credit will be issued only to support the general partnership, corporate or company purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.  The Borrower will not request any Borrowing or Letter of Credit, and the Borrower shall not use, or permit its Subsidiaries or its or their respective directors, officers, employees or agents to use, the proceeds of any Borrowing or Letter of Credit (a) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws, in any material respect, (b) for the purpose of funding, 

70

financing or facilitating any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, or (c) in any other manner that would result in the material violation of any Sanctions applicable to any party to this Agreement.
SECTION 5.09    Maintenance of Separateness.  Each Loan Party shall observe organizational formalities and keep books and records separate from MPC.
SECTION 5.10    Required Subsidiary Guarantors.
(a)    If on the Closing Date any Subsidiary guarantees any Indebtedness of the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount of $20,000,000 or more, then such Subsidiary shall execute a Subsidiary Guaranty and deliver it to the Administrative Agent on the Closing Date.  If, after the Closing Date, any Subsidiary that is not already a Loan Party guarantees any Indebtedness of the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount of $20,000,000 or more, then that Subsidiary shall become a guarantor of the Obligations by executing a Subsidiary Guaranty and delivering it to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days of the date on which it guaranteed such Indebtedness (or such later date as agreed to by the Administrative Agent), together with such other additional closing documents, certificates and legal opinions (which may be opinions of in-house counsel) as shall reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent.
(b)    So long as no Default has occurred and is continuing (or would result from such release), (i) if all of the Equity Interests of a Subsidiary Guarantor that are owned by the Borrower or any other Subsidiary are sold or otherwise disposed of in a transaction or transactions permitted by this Agreement and as a result of such disposition such Person is no longer a Subsidiary, or (ii) if (A) the conditions set forth in Section 5.10(a) requiring such Person to be a Subsidiary Guarantor no longer exist and, if applicable, the conditions set forth in Section 6.05 requiring such Person to be a Subsidiary Guarantor no longer exist, and (B) immediately after giving effect to the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor (and giving effect to any repayment of Indebtedness that occurs substantially concurrently with such release), all of the Indebtedness of the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries is permitted under Section 6.01, then promptly following the Borrower’s request, the Administrative Agent shall execute a release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its Subsidiary Guaranty.  A request by the Borrower for a release pursuant to this Section shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Responsible Officer certifying that the conditions to release set forth in this Section have been satisfied.
(c)    The Borrower may, but shall not be required to, cause Subsidiaries (other than those required to become Subsidiary Guarantors pursuant to Section 5.10(a)) to become Subsidiary Guarantors pursuant to Section 10.09.
SECTION 5.11    Anti-Corruption Laws and Sanctions.  The Borrower will maintain and implement policies and procedures designed, in its reasonable business judgment, to promote compliance by the Borrower, its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (when acting in their capacity as agents for the Borrower or its Subsidiaries) with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions. 
SECTION 5.12    Excluded Ventures.  
(a)    The Borrower may designate any subsidiary to be an Excluded Venture; provided that at the time of such designation and immediately after giving effect thereto (i) no Default shall exist, (ii) all representations and warranties herein will be true and correct in all material respects as if remade at the time of such designation, except to the extent such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they were true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date (provided that 

71

such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representation and warranty that already is qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof), and (iii) such subsidiary does not, at the time of designation and does not at any time thereafter while it is an Excluded Venture, Guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable with respect to, or grant any Liens on any of its property to secure, any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any obligations of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in respect of any Sale and Leaseback Transaction; provided further that the Borrower may not designate any of the following as an Excluded Venture: Pipe Line Holdings, MPLX Operations LLC, MWE, the general partner of MWE, MarkWest Hydrocarbon, Inc. or any subsidiary of the Borrower holding Equity Interests in any of the foregoing entities.  Designation by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Borrower as of such date as to the matters specified in this Section 5.12(a).
(b)    The Borrower may designate any Excluded Venture to be a Subsidiary, provided that at the time of such designation and after giving effect thereto, (i) such Excluded Venture shall not have outstanding Indebtedness, other than Indebtedness permitted under Section 6.01, or Liens on any of its property, other than Liens permitted under Section 6.02 (in each case taking into account the other Indebtedness of Subsidiaries, and the Liens on property of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, then existing), (ii) no Default shall exist, and (iii) all representations and warranties herein will be true and correct in all material respects as if remade at the time of such designation, except to the extent such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they were true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date (provided that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representation and warranty that already is qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof).  The designation of any Excluded Venture as a Subsidiary shall constitute the incurrence by such Subsidiary, at the time of designation, of (x) all Indebtedness of such Subsidiary and (y) all Liens on property of such Subsidiary existing at such time.
(c)    The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, Guarantee, or grant or otherwise permit a Lien on any of its or their property to secure, any Indebtedness of an Excluded Venture, other than (i) Liens on Equity Interests of an Excluded Venture to secure Indebtedness of such Excluded Venture that is non-recourse to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and (ii) Guarantees of Indebtedness of Excluded Ventures in an aggregate amount not to exceed 2.5% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets at the time of incurrence or assumption thereof.   As used in this subsection (c), “non-recourse” means Indebtedness of an Excluded Venture for which recourse to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, whether contractual or as a matter of law, for non-payment of such Indebtedness is limited to Equity Interests issued by such Excluded Venture. The provisions of clause (ii) of this Section 5.12(c) shall not apply to Guarantees of Indebtedness of LOCAP LLC or LOOP LLC in the event that they become subsidiaries after the MWE Acquisition Closing Date.
(d)    If at any time an Excluded Venture fails to meet any requirement set forth in clause (iii) of subsection (a) or in subsection (c) of this Section 5.12, it will thereafter automatically cease to be an Excluded Venture and shall constitute a Subsidiary for all purposes of this Agreement, and any Indebtedness and Liens of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by such Subsidiary as of such date.
(e)    Any subsidiary of an Excluded Venture shall automatically constitute an Excluded Venture.  At the time that an entity becomes a subsidiary of an Excluded Venture, the Borrower shall be deemed to have designated such subsidiary as an Excluded Venture pursuant to Section 5.12(a).
(f)    If at any time an entity that has been designated as an Excluded Venture ceases to be a subsidiary, then such entity shall cease to be an Excluded Venture.

SECTION 6.04    Transactions with Affiliates.  A Loan Party will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into or engage in any material transaction (including any sale, lease, transfer, purchase or acquisition of property or assets) with any of its Affiliates, except on terms and conditions, taken as a whole, that are substantially no less favorable to such Loan Party or such Subsidiary as could be obtained on an arm’s-length basis from unrelated third parties (or, if in the good faith judgment of the General Partner’s board of directors, no comparable transaction is available with which to compare any such transaction, such transaction, taken as a whole, is otherwise fair to such Loan Party or such Subsidiary); provided that the foregoing restriction shall not apply to (a) transactions between or among the Loan Parties and Wholly Owned Subsidiaries and not involving any non-Wholly Owned Subsidiaries; (b) transactions involving any employee benefit plans or related trusts of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; (c) transactions pursuant to any contract or agreement outstanding as of the Closing Date and listed on Schedule 6.04; (d) the payment of reasonable compensation, fees and expenses to, and indemnity provided on behalf of, directors and officers of such Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business; (e) transactions entered into with MPC and its Subsidiaries on terms and conditions that are fair and reasonable, taking into account the totality of the relationship between the Borrower and the Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and MPC and its Subsidiaries, on the other; (f) transactions approved by the Conflicts Committee of the Board of Directors (or equivalent governing body) of the General Partner (or the equivalent successor body to such Conflicts Committee); (g) investments in Excluded Ventures (including Guarantees permitted by Section 5.12(c)) or in Joint Ventures; and (h) any Restricted Payment permitted by Section 6.10.

encumbrances and restrictions contained in the original agreement, as determined in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, (e) prohibitions, restrictions or conditions with respect to a Subsidiary under an agreement that has been entered into for the disposition of all or substantially all of the outstanding Equity Interests of or assets of such Subsidiary, provided that such disposition is otherwise not prohibited hereunder, (f) agreements governing Indebtedness permitted under Section 6.01 that are, in the good faith judgment of the Borrower, no more restrictive with respect to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries than the restrictions contained in this Agreement, (g) restrictions contained in joint venture agreements, partnership agreements and other similar agreements with respect to a joint ownership arrangement restricting the disposition or distribution of assets or property of, or the activities of, such joint venture, partnership or other joint ownership entity, or any of such Person’s Subsidiaries, if such restrictions are not applicable to the property or assets of any other Person and (h) prohibitions, restrictions or conditions applicable to MWE and its Subsidiaries contained in indentures (including supplemental indentures) pursuant to which the MWE Senior Notes were issued, provided that if any such prohibitions, restrictions or conditions are in effect on the date that is the 120th day after the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, MWE shall become a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to Section 5.10 hereof and shall continue to be a Subsidiary Guarantor for so long as any such prohibitions, restrictions or conditions are in effect; provided further however that the foregoing shall not apply to any agreement or other arrangement that prohibits, restricts or imposes any condition upon the ability of any Subsidiary to pay dividends or make other distributions with respect to its Equity Interests or to make or repay loans or advances owed to any Loan Party or any other Subsidiary unless such prohibition, restriction or impositions would be reasonably expected to materially impair the ability of the Borrower and the Loan Parties, taken as a whole, to perform their monetary obligations under the Loan Documents, as determined in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.
SECTION 6.06    Fiscal Year; Accounting Principles.  The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, change (a) its current fiscal year or (b) its current method of keeping records and books of account used in the preparation of financial statements unless such change in accounting principles is required or permitted by GAAP, in each case, other than changes with respect to a Subsidiary made in order to conform to the fiscal year or methodology of the Borrower.
SECTION 6.07    Change in Nature of Business.  The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, engage in any material line of business substantially different from those lines of business conducted by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on the MWE Acquisition Closing Date, any business substantially related or incidental thereto or logical extensions thereof or any other business which generates “qualifying income” under the Code.
SECTION 6.08    [Reserved]
SECTION 6.09    [Reserved]
SECTION 6.10    Restricted Payments.  No Loan Party will, nor will it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, declare or make, directly or indirectly, any Restricted Payment, or incur any obligation (contingent or otherwise) to do so, except that (a) a Subsidiary may declare and make Restricted Payments to the Borrower or to another Subsidiary, (b) a Loan Party or Subsidiary may declare and make dividend payments and other distributions payable solely in the Equity Interests of such Person, and (c) provided that no Event of Default exists or would be caused by the declaring or making of such Restricted  Payment, (i) the Borrower may declare and make Restricted Payments in accordance with its Partnership Agreement, (ii) any Wholly Owned Subsidiary may make Restricted Payments to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary and (iii) any non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary may make Restricted Payments to its owners on a pro rata basis in accordance with such owners’ pro rata ownership interest therein; provided that the foregoing shall not operate to prohibit 

77

the payment of distributions of Available Cash (as defined in the Borrower’s partnership agreement) to limited partners of the Borrower or the payment by the Borrower for the repurchase of  limited partnership interests in the Borrower so long as (i) on the record date for such distribution, or on the date that the Borrower became legally bound to pay the repurchase price for such repurchase (herein also referred to as a “record date”), as applicable, such distribution or such repurchase was permitted by the foregoing and (ii) such distribution or such repurchase price is paid within the earlier of 60 days after the record date and any date under applicable law on which such dividend or repurchase must be consummated; provided, further, that the provisions of this Section 6.10 shall not be construed to prohibit investments by the Borrower or any other Loan Party in Equity Interests of any non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary.
SECTION 6.11    Changes in Organization Documents.  No Loan Party shall make any changes to its Organization Documents that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

The Borrower shall maintain, as of each Quarter-End Date, a ratio of Consolidated Total Debt as of such date to Consolidated EBITDA for the four fiscal quarter period ending on such date of no greater than (x) during an Acquisition Period, 5.5 to 1.0 and (y) at all other times, 5.0 to 1.0.    In addition, in the event that any Designated Material Debt is excluded from the calculation of Consolidated Total Debt as of any Quarter-End Date (such excluded Debt is referred to herein as the “Excluded Debt”) and any Excluded Debt remains outstanding on the Compliance Certificate Delivery Date with respect to such Quarter-End Date, then the Borrower shall not permit, on such Compliance Certificate Delivery Date, the ratio of (x) Consolidated Total Debt as of such Quarter-End Date plus the amount of Excluded Debt that remains outstanding on such Compliance Certificate Delivery Date to (y) Consolidated EBITDA for the four fiscal quarter period ended on such Quarter-End Date, to exceed the foregoing ratio. 
For purposes of calculating compliance with this Section 6.12, Consolidated EBITDA may include, at the Borrower’s option, any Material Project EBITDA Adjustments as provided in the definition thereof.

ARTICLE VIII 
The Administrative Agent

80

SECTION 8.01    Appointment and Authority.  Each of the Lenders and each of the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints the Person named as the Administrative Agent 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 and of the other Loan Documents, 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 Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of 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 8.02    Rights as a Lender and Issuing Bank.  The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender or an Issuing Bank as any other Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” and “Issuing Bank” or “Issuing 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 Lenders or the Issuing Banks.
SECTION 8.03    Exculpatory Provisions.  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:
(a)    shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
(b)    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 Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders 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 applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally or otherwise or that may affect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally or otherwise; and
(c)    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 a Loan Party 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.

81

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 Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02 and Section 7.01) or (ii) unless a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined by a final, non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent was grossly negligent or acted with willful misconduct in taking or not taking any such action.  The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given in writing to the Administrative Agent by a Loan Party, a Lender or an Issuing Bank.
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 sufficiency, 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 Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.
SECTION 8.04    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 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 Lender or an Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Bank 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 Loan Parties), 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 8.05    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 Article shall apply to any such sub agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Facilities 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 non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

82

SECTION 8.06    Resignation of Administrative Agent.
(a)    The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor approved by the Borrower (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), provided that no approval of the Borrower shall be necessary if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, 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.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders 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 Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Closing Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, 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 Closing Date.
(b)    If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and appoint a successor approved by the Borrower (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that no approval of the Borrower shall be necessary if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders 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 Closing 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 Lenders 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 or other amounts then 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 Lender and each Issuing Bank directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint, with the approval of the Borrower to the extent provided above, a successor Administrative Agent 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 as provided in Section 2.16(h) and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Closing Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section).  The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.  After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.03 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.

83

(d)    Any resignation by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”) as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as an Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender.  If Wells Fargo resigns as an Issuing Bank, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties 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 the Total LC Exposure with respect thereto.  If Wells Fargo resigns as Swingline Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swingline Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to fund risk participations in outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c).  Upon the appointment by the Borrower of a successor Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender hereunder (which successor shall in all cases be a Lender other than a Defaulting Lender), (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as applicable, (ii) the retiring Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (iii) 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 Wells Fargo to effectively assume the obligations of Wells Fargo with respect to such Letters of Credit.
SECTION 8.07    Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender and each Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or Issuing 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 Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or Issuing 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.
SECTION 8.08    No Other Duties, Etc.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Joint Bookrunners, the Joint Lead Arrangers, Documentation Agents or Syndication 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 Lender or an Issuing Bank hereunder.
SECTION 8.09    Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally or otherwise or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or LC Exposure 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 or any other Loan Party) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(a)    to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, Total LC Exposure and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent under Section 2.11 and Section 10.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

84

(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 Lender 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 Lenders and the Issuing Banks, 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 2.11 and Section 10.03.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or any Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or any Issuing Bank in any such proceeding.
SECTION 8.10    Release of Lien on Cash Collateral Upon Expiration of Letters of Credit.  The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to release its Lien on Cash Collateral at such time as all Letters of Credit have expired, all Obligations have been paid in full (other than indemnities and other contingent obligations not then due and payable and as to which no claim has been made), and the Aggregate Commitments have terminated.

(ii)    The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.”  The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications.  No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or the Platform.

SECTION 10.02    Waivers; Amendments.

The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have.  No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.
(b)    None of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders and, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders consenting to the Borrower’s request for any extension of a Maturity Date in accordance with Section 2.21 or Section 2.22 or providing any Revolving Credit 

87

Commitment Increase in accordance with Section 2.23 may enter into any amendment necessary to implement the terms of such extension or Revolving Credit Commitment Increase in accordance with the terms of this Agreement without the consent of any other Lender; provided further that (subject to Section 2.20 with respect to any Defaulting Lender) no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees or other amounts (to the extent that such other amounts are then due and payable) payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.17(b) or 2.17(c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender; (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder (other than the definitions specified in clause (vi) of this Section 10.02(b)), without the written consent of each Lender, (vi) change the definitions of “Required Revolving Credit Lenders” or “Required Term Loan Lenders” without the written consent of each Lender under the applicable Facility; (vii) change any of the provisions of Section 2.20, without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lender; (viii) release any material Subsidiary Guarantor from its Subsidiary Guaranty, except as provided in Section 5.10 or Section 10.09, as applicable, without the written consent of each Lender; (ix) amend the definition of “Outside Term Loan Draw Date” without the written consent of each Term Loan Lender; (x) without limiting the generality of the first clause of this Section 10.02(b), waive any condition precedent to an extension of credit under a particular Facility without the written consent of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders or the Required Term Loan Lenders, as the case may be; and (xi) impose any greater restriction on the ability of any Lender under a Facility to assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the written consent of (1) if such Facility is the Revolving Credit Facility, the Required Revolving Credit Lenders and (2) if such facility is the Term Loan Facility, the Required Term Loan Lenders; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be.

(d)    Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and without limiting in any way the Borrower’s reimbursement or indemnification obligations set forth in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, no party hereto nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against each other such Person, 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 or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

SECTION 10.04    Successors and Assigns.
(a)    Successors and Assigns Generally.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) except as expressly provided in Section 6.03, neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any Lender 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 (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b)    Assignment by Lenders.  (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this 

90

Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of:
(A)    the Borrower; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to (x) a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (y) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee;
(B)    the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent shall be required for an assignment of Loans or Commitments in respect of a Facility to a Lender with a Commitment in respect of such Facility, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; and
(C)    each Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender for any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility.
(ii)    Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:
(A)    except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;
(B)    each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans and the Commitment assigned;
(C)    the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, 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;
(D)    the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire;
(E)    the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall be required to execute and deliver the applicable forms to the extent required under Section 2.16(f) for any Lender, and no assignment shall be effective in connection herewith unless and until such forms are so delivered;
(F)    no assignment shall be made to (1) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (2) to any Defaulting Lender or to any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person, who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing persons described in this clause (F); and

91

(G)    no assignment shall be made to a natural Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person).
If the consent of the Borrower is required pursuant to this Section 10.04(b) in connection with any assignment, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have provided such consent unless it has notified the Administrative Agent of its refusal to give such consent within ten Business Days following the Borrower receiving a written request for such consent with respect to such assignment.
For the purposes of this Section 10.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (x) a Lender, (y) an Affiliate of a Lender or (z) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.
(iii)    In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and each other Lender 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 and Swingline Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
(iv)    Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14, Section 2.15, Section 2.16 and Section 10.03).  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.
(c)    Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof 

92

from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(d)    Participations.  Any Lender may, at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person, or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged; (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 10.03(c) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participants.
Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the second proviso to Section 10.02(b) (other than clause (vi) thereof to the extent that any applicable change to Section 2.20 pursuant to such clause (vi) would not result in any of the changes referred to in the other clauses of such second proviso) that affects such Participant.  The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14, Section 2.15 and Section 2.16 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.16(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.16(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that (A) such Participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.16 (including Section 2.16(f)), Section 2.17 and Section 2.18 as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; (B) such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or Section 2.16, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation and (C) the Borrower shall be notified promptly by the applicable Lender of each participation sold by such Lender to a Participant pursuant to this paragraph.  Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.18(b) with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the Borrower as provided above and to the extent that such disclosure is necessary 

93

to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(e)    Pledge by Lender.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, 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.
(f)    Assignment by Issuing Bank.  In the event that a Lender that is an Issuing Bank assigns all of its Commitments and Loans hereunder to a Person (other than an Affiliate of an Issuing Bank) in accordance with this Section 10.04, such Lender may resign from its role as an Issuing Bank hereunder.  Any resigning Issuing Bank shall retain all the rights and duties of an Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit (and LC Exposure related thereto) issued by it that are outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an Issuing Bank.  The Borrower may, or, at the request of such resigned Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, arrange for one or more of the other Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit hereunder in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, issued by such resigned Issuing Bank and outstanding at the time of such resignation, or make other arrangements satisfactory to the resigned Issuing Bank to effectively cause another Issuing Bank to assume the obligations of the resigned Issuing Bank with respect to any such Letters of Credit.
SECTION 10.05    Survival.  All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower and the other Loan Parties herein and in the other Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated.  The provisions of Section 2.14, Section 2.15, Section 2.16 and Section 10.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.
SECTION 10.06    Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  This Agreement, any other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements referred to in Section 4.01(f) and any other 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.  This Agreement shall become effective 

94

when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided that the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans and of the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit hereunder are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 4.01.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by fax or electronic transmission (in .pdf form) shall be effective for all purposes as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
SECTION 10.07    Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.
SECTION 10.08    Right of Setoff.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by 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 Lender, such Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates which are then due and payable, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, Issuing Bank or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender or such Issuing Bank different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness.  The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have.  Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees to promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
SECTION 10.09    Subsidiary Guarantees.  The Borrower may (but is not required to), at any time upon three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, cause any of its Subsidiaries organized under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia to become a Subsidiary Guarantor by such Subsidiary executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a Subsidiary Guaranty, together with such evidence of authority and opinions (which may be opinions of in-house counsel) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.  So long as no Default has occurred and is continuing under the Loan Documents (or would result from such release), (a) if all of the Equity Interests of a Subsidiary Guarantor that are owned by the Borrower or any other Subsidiary are sold or otherwise disposed of in a transaction or transactions permitted by this Agreement and as a result of such disposition such Person is no longer a Subsidiary, or (b) in the event that, immediately after giving effect to the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guaranty, all of the Indebtedness of the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries is permitted under Section 6.01, then, in each case, promptly following the Borrower’s request, the Administrative Agent shall execute a release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its Subsidiary Guaranty; provided, however that clause (b) of this Section 10.09 shall not authorize the release of a Subsidiary Guarantor from its Subsidiary Guaranty if at the time of the requested release it is required to be a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to Section 5.10(a) or Section 6.05.

EXHIBIT G
FORM OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY
SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY dated as of _______________, ____ (this “Guaranty”), by each of the entities listed on the signature pages hereof or becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 14.08 hereof (each a “Subsidiary Guarantor” and collectively, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), in favor of the Administrative Agent, each Lender, each Issuing Bank (as each such term is defined in the Credit Agreement referred to below) and each other holder of an Obligation (as such term is defined below) (each, a “Guarantied Party” and, collectively, the “Guarantied Parties”).
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, dated as of November 20, 2014 (together with all appendices, exhibits and schedules thereto and as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”; capitalized terms used herein but not herein defined shall have the meaning set forth in the Credit Agreement), among MPLX LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Borrower”), the Lenders party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), the Lenders have severally agreed to make extensions of credit to the Borrower upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein;
WHEREAS, each Subsidiary Guarantor is a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Borrower; and
WHEREAS, each Subsidiary Guarantor will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the making of the Loans, the issuance of the Letters of Credit and the granting of the other financial accommodations to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above, the terms and conditions contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
Guarantee
(a)    Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees,  jointly with the other Subsidiary Guarantors and severally, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the full and punctual payment when due and in the currency due, whether at stated maturity or earlier, by reason of acceleration, mandatory prepayment or otherwise in accordance herewith or any other Loan Document, of all the Obligations (as defined below), whether or not from time to time reduced or extinguished or hereafter increased or incurred, whether or not recovery may be or hereafter may become barred by any statute of limitations, whether or not enforceable as against the Borrower, whether now or hereafter existing, and whether due or to become due, including principal, interest (including interest accrued or accruing after the commencement of any proceeding under Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) or any other bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceeding, and interest at the contract rate applicable upon default accrued or accruing after the commencement of any such proceeding, in each case regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding), fees and costs of collection.  This Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due (whether or not any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not of collection.

(b)    Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, if any payment made by the Borrower or any other Person and applied to the Obligations is at any time annulled, avoided, set aside, rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required to be refunded or repaid, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, any such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be and remain in full force and effect, as fully as if such payment had never been made. If, prior to any of the foregoing, this Guaranty shall have been cancelled or surrendered, this Guaranty shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of any such Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the amount of such payment.
(c)    In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that any Guarantied Party has at law or in equity against any Subsidiary Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Borrower to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated maturity or earlier, by reason of acceleration, mandatory prepayment or otherwise in accordance herewith or any other Loan Document, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby promises to and will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the applicable Guarantied Parties in cash the amount of such unpaid Obligations.  Upon payment by any Subsidiary Guarantor of any sums to the Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, all rights of such Subsidiary Guarantor against the Borrower arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subject to Article VIII hereof.
(d)    As used herein, the term “Obligations” means all obligations of the Loan Parties to pay (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of, and all unpaid interest (including interest accrued or accruing after the commencement of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any other bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceeding, and interest at the contract rate applicable upon default accrued or accruing after the commencement of any such proceeding, in each case regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding) on, the Loans when and as due, whether at stated maturity or earlier, by reason of acceleration, mandatory prepayment or otherwise in accordance herewith or any other Loan Document, (ii) all reimbursement obligations (including payments in respect of reimbursement of disbursements and interest thereon) with respect to the Total LC Exposure and all obligations of the Borrower under any Loan Document to provide cash collateral for LC Exposure, and (iii) all other outstanding liabilities, obligations and indebtedness owing by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Indemnitee arising under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, of every type and description (whether by reason of an extension of credit, opening or amendment of a letter of credit or payment of any draft drawn thereunder, loan, guarantee, indemnification or otherwise), present or future, whether direct or indirect (including those acquired by assignment), absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising and however acquired and whether or not evidenced by any note, guarantee or other instrument for the payment of money (including any such liabilities, obligations and indebtedness incurred after the commencement of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any other bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding).

2

ARTICLE II
Limitation of Guarantee
Any term or provision of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the Obligations for which any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be liable shall not exceed the maximum amount for which such Subsidiary Guarantor can be liable without rendering this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, as it relates to such Subsidiary Guarantor, subject to avoidance under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer (including Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable provisions of comparable state law) (collectively, “Fraudulent Transfer Laws”), in each case after giving effect (a) to all other liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under such Fraudulent Transfer Laws (specifically excluding, however, any liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of intercompany Indebtedness to the Borrower to the extent that such Indebtedness would be discharged in an amount equal to the amount paid by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder) and (b) to the value as assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor (as determined under the applicable provisions of such Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights to subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or similar rights held by such Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to (i) applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws, rules and regulations, orders, judgments, decrees and other determinations of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator and common law, (ii) Article III of this Guaranty or (iii) any other obligation, agreement, undertaking or similar provisions of any security or any agreement, undertaking, contract, lease, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument (excluding any Loan Document) providing for an equitable allocation among such Subsidiary Guarantor and other Subsidiaries or Affiliates of the Borrower of obligations arising under this Guaranty or other guaranties of the Obligations by such parties.
ARTICLE III
Indemnity and Contribution
Section 3.01  Indemnity and Subrogation.  In addition to all such rights of indemnity and subrogation as the Subsidiary Guarantors may have under applicable law (but subject to Article VIII hereof), the Borrower agrees that in the event a payment in respect of any Obligation shall be made by any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Guaranty, the Borrower shall indemnify such Subsidiary Guarantor for the full amount of such payment and such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the Person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment.
Section 3.02  Contribution.  In the event that any Subsidiary Guarantor (the “Claiming Party”) shall be required hereunder to make a payment in respect of any Obligation exceeding the greater of (a) the amount of the economic benefit actually received by such Subsidiary Guarantor from the Loans and the other financial accommodations provided to the Borrower under the Loan Documents and (b) the amount such Subsidiary Guarantor would otherwise have paid if such Subsidiary Guarantor had paid the aggregate amount of the Obligations (excluding the amount thereof repaid by the Borrower) in the same proportion as such Subsidiary Guarantor’s net worth on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Subsidiary Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 14.08, the date of the supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Subsidiary Guarantor) bears to the aggregate net worth of all the Subsidiary Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Subsidiary Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 14.08, the date of the supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Subsidiary Guarantor), then (subject to Article VIII hereof) such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be reimbursed by such other Subsidiary Guarantors (each, a “Contributing Party”) for the amount of such excess, pro rata, based on the respective net worths of such 

3

other Subsidiary Guarantors at the date enforcement hereunder is sought.  Any Contributing Party making a payment to a Claiming Party pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Party to the extent of such payment.
ARTICLE IV
Authorization; Other Agreements
The Guarantied Parties are hereby authorized, without notice to, or demand upon, any Subsidiary Guarantor, which notice and demand requirements each are expressly waived hereby, and without discharging or otherwise affecting the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder (which obligations shall remain absolute and unconditional notwithstanding any such action or omission to act), from time to time, to do each of the following:
(a)    supplement, renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or other terms relating to, the Obligations, or any part of them, or otherwise modify, amend or change the terms of any promissory note or other agreement, document or instrument (including the other Loan Documents) now or hereafter executed by the Borrower and delivered to the Guarantied Parties or any of them, including any increase or decrease of principal or the rate of interest thereon;
(b)    waive or otherwise consent to noncompliance with any provision of any instrument evidencing the Obligations, or any part thereof, or any other instrument or agreement in respect of the Obligations (including the other Loan Documents) now or hereafter executed by the Borrower and delivered to the Guarantied Parties or any of them;
(c)    accept partial payments on the Obligations;
(d)    receive, take and hold security or collateral for the payment of the Obligations or any part of them and exchange, enforce, waive, substitute, liquidate, terminate, abandon, fail to perfect, subordinate, transfer, otherwise alter and release any such security or collateral;

(f)    add, release or substitute any one or more other guarantors, makers or endorsers of the Obligations or any part of them and otherwise deal with the Borrower or any other guarantor, maker or endorser;
(g)    apply to the Obligations any payment or recovery (i) from the Borrower, from any other guarantor, maker or endorser of the Obligations or any part of them or (ii) from any Subsidiary Guarantor in such order as provided herein, in each case whether such Obligations are secured or unsecured or guaranteed or not guaranteed by others;
(h)    apply to the Obligations any payment or recovery from any Subsidiary Guarantor of the Obligations or any sum realized from security furnished by such Subsidiary Guarantor upon its indebtedness or obligations to the Guarantied Parties or any of them, in each case whether or not such indebtedness or obligations relate to the Obligations; and

4

(i)    refund at any time any payment received by any Guarantied Party in respect of any Obligation, and payment to such Guarantied Party of the amount so refunded shall be fully guaranteed hereby even though prior thereto this Guaranty shall have been cancelled or surrendered, and such prior cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder in respect of the amount so refunded; 
in each case even if any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Subsidiary Guarantor is extinguished, affected or impaired by any of the foregoing (including any election of remedies by reason of any judicial, non-judicial or other proceeding in respect of the Obligations that impairs any subrogation, reimbursement or other right of such Subsidiary Guarantor).
ARTICLE V
Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional
Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives any defense of a surety or guarantor or any other obligor on any obligations arising in connection with or in respect of any of the following and hereby agrees that its obligations under this Guaranty are absolute and unconditional and shall not be discharged, reduced, limited, impaired or terminated or otherwise affected as a result of any of the following:
(a)    the invalidity or unenforceability of, or any impossibility in the performance of, any of the Borrower’s obligations under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any security for, or other guaranty of the Obligations or any part of them;

(d)    any borrowing or grant of a Lien by the Borrower, as debtor-in-possession, or extension of credit, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable provisions of comparable state or foreign law;

(i)    any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, liquidation or dissolution proceeding commenced by or against the Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any of the Borrower’s other Subsidiaries, including any discharge of, or bar or stay against collecting, any Obligation (or any part of them or interest thereon) in or as a result of any such proceeding;

5

(k)    any action taken by any Guarantied Party if such action is authorized hereby;
(l)    any change in the corporate existence or structure of the Borrower or any other Loan Party;

(o)    any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or release from any of the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document or any other agreement, including with respect to any other Subsidiary Guarantor under this Guaranty; or
(p)    any other act, omission or circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor or any other obligor on any obligations, other than the payment in full in cash of the Obligations (other than indemnities and other contingent obligations (other than contingent obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, excluding Letters of Credit that have been cash collateralized in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank or with respect to which other arrangements have been made that are reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank) not then due and payable and as to which no claim has been made as of the time of determination).
ARTICLE VI
Waivers
Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives diligence, promptness, presentment, demand for payment or performance and protest and notice of protest, notice of acceptance and any other notice in respect of the Obligations or any part of them, and any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, other than any defense of payment in full in cash of the Obligations.  In connection with the foregoing, each Subsidiary Guarantor covenants that its obligations hereunder shall not be discharged, except in accordance with Article X or XV hereof.
ARTICLE VII
Reliance
Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and any endorser and other guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations, or any part thereof, that diligent inquiry would reveal, and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that no Guarantied Party shall have any duty to advise any Subsidiary Guarantor of information known to it regarding such condition or any such circumstances. In the event any Guarantied Party, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or 

6

from time to time to provide any such information to any Subsidiary Guarantor, such Guarantied Party shall be under no obligation (a) to undertake any investigation not a part of its regular business routine, (b) to disclose any information that such Guarantied Party, pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance or banking practices, wishes to maintain confidential or (c) to make any other or future disclosures of such information or any other information to any Subsidiary Guarantor.
ARTICLE VIII
Waiver of Subrogation and Contribution Rights
Until the Obligations have been paid in full in cash (other than indemnities and other contingent obligations (other than contingent obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, excluding Letters of Credit that have been cash collateralized in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank or with respect to which other arrangements have been made that are reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank) not then due and payable and as to which no claim has been made as of the time of determination) and the Commitments have expired or have been terminated, the Subsidiary Guarantors shall not enforce or otherwise exercise any right of subrogation to any of the rights of the Guarantied Parties or any part of them against the Borrower or any right of reimbursement, indemnity or contribution or similar right against the Borrower by reason of this Guaranty or by any payment made by any Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the Obligations.  No failure on the part of the Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor to make the payments required by Article III hereof (or any other payments required under applicable law or otherwise) shall in any respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to its obligations hereunder, and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable for the full amount of the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.
ARTICLE IX
Default; Remedies
The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder are independent of and separate from the Obligations. Upon any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, at its sole election, proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Subsidiary Guarantor to collect and recover the full amount or any portion of the Obligations then due, without first proceeding against the Borrower or any other guarantor of the Obligations, or joining the Borrower or any other guarantor in any proceeding against any Subsidiary Guarantor.
ARTICLE X
Irrevocability
Subject to Article XV below, this Guaranty shall be irrevocable as to the Obligations (or any part thereof) until the Commitments have expired or have been terminated, the Obligations have been paid in full in cash (other than indemnities and other contingent obligations not then due and payable and as to which no claim has been made as of the time of determination), all Letters of Credit have expired or terminated (or have been cash collateralized in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank or with respect to which other arrangements have been made that are reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank) and all LC Disbursements have been reimbursed, at which time this Guaranty shall automatically be cancelled. Upon such cancellation and at the written request of any Subsidiary Guarantor or its successors or assigns, and at the cost and expense of such Subsidiary Guarantor or its successors or assigns, the Administrative Agent shall execute in a timely manner a satisfaction of this Guaranty and such instruments, 

7

documents or agreements as are necessary or desirable to evidence the termination of this Guaranty.  Any execution and delivery of the instruments, documents and agreements by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Article X shall be without recourse or warranty by the Administrative Agent.

ARTICLE XI
Setoff
If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender 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) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Subsidiary Guarantor against any of and all the Obligations held by such Lender which are then due and payable, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Guaranty. The rights of each Lender under this Article XI are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. Each Lender agrees to promptly notify the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
ARTICLE XII
No Marshalling
Each Subsidiary Guarantor consents and agrees that no Guarantied Party or any Person acting for or on behalf of any Guarantied Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Subsidiary Guarantor or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.
ARTICLE XIII
Representations and Warranties
Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby represents and warrants that the representations and warranties as to it made by the Borrower in Article III of the Credit Agreement (other than the representations and warranties in Section 3.04(d) and Section 3.06(a) of the Credit Agreement) with respect to any Borrowing or the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit, in each case on or after the date hereof, are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such Borrowing or the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of such Letter of Credit, as applicable, except to the extent any such representations and warranties are expressly limited to an earlier date, in which case, on and as of the date of such Borrowing or the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of such Letter of Credit, as applicable, such representations and warranties are true and correct in all material respects as of such specified earlier date; provided that, in each case, such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof.

ARTICLE XIV
Miscellaneous
SECTION 14.01.    Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding upon each Subsidiary Guarantor and upon the successors and assigns of such Subsidiary Guarantors and shall inure to the benefit of the Guarantied Parties and their respective successors and assigns. The successors and assigns of the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Borrower shall include their respective receivers, trustees and debtors-in-possession. 
SECTION 14.02.    Enforcement; Waivers; Amendments
(a)    No delay on the part of any Guarantied Party in the exercise of any right or remedy arising under this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise with respect to all or any part of the Obligations or any other guaranty of or security for all or any part of the Obligations shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by any such Person of any such right or remedy, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or remedy, shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.  The rights and remedies of the Guarantied Parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have.  Failure by any Guarantied Party at any time or times hereafter to require strict performance by the Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations or any other Person of any provision, warranty, term or condition contained in any Loan Document now or at any time hereafter executed by any such Persons and delivered to any Guarantied Party shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of any Guarantied Party at any time or times hereafter to demand strict performance thereof and such right shall not be deemed to have been waived by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 14.02(b)) or knowledge of any Guarantied Party, or its respective agents, officers or employees.  No waiver of any provision of this Guaranty or consent to any departure by any Subsidiary Guarantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by a written instrument pursuant to Section 14.02(b), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.  No action by any Guarantied Party permitted hereunder shall in any way affect or impair any Guarantied Party’s rights and remedies or the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Guaranty.  Any determination by a court of competent jurisdiction of the amount of any principal or interest owing by the Borrower to a Guarantied Party shall be conclusive and binding on each Subsidiary Guarantor irrespective of whether such Subsidiary Guarantor was a party to the suit or action in which such determination was made.
(b)    None of the terms or provisions of this Guaranty may be waived, amended, supplemented or modified except pursuant to an agreement in writing entered into by the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders.
SECTION 14.03.    Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.
(a)    This Guaranty shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.
(b)    Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in 

9

respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined solely in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each party 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.  
(c)    Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
(d)    Each party hereto hereby irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement. Nothing in this Guaranty will affect the right of any party to this Guaranty to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
SECTION 14.04.    Certain Terms.  The definitions of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined.  Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms.  The words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”.  The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”.  Unless the context requires otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein 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 in the Credit Agreement), (b) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns, (c) the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Guaranty in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (d) all references herein to Articles, Sections and Exhibits shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits to, this Guaranty, (e) 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 intellectual property, cash, securities, accounts and contract rights, (f) with respect to the determination of any period of time, the word “from” means “from and including” and the word “to” means “to but excluding” and (g) reference to any law, rule or regulation means such as amended, modified, codified or reenacted, in whole or in part, and in effect from time to time.
SECTION 14.05.    Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY 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 GUARANTY OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY 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 GUARANTY BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
SECTION 14.06.    Notices. Any notice or other communication herein required or permitted shall be given as provided in Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement and, in the case of any Subsidiary Guarantor, to such Subsidiary Guarantor in care of the Borrower.

10

SECTION 14.07.    Severability.
