For the avoidance of doubt, if Borrower has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would have failed to have been complied with  as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets of Borrower or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets, tests or ratios will not be deemed to have failed to have been complied with as a result of such fluctuations.

is permitted under this Agreement, any such ratio, test or basket shall be required to be satisfied on a Pro Forma Basis (i) assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated and (ii) assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have not been consummated.

Upon the making of the Term Loan on the Closing Date, the Commitments shall automatically terminate. 
2.02    Borrowing Mechanics for Term Loans.
(a)    Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a fully executed Funding Notice no later than 12:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date.  Promptly upon receipt by Administrative Agent of such Funding Notice, Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed borrowing.  
(b)    Each Lender shall make the amount of its Term Loan available to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Principal Office not later than 12:00 p.m. on the Closing Date.  Upon satisfaction or waiver of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.01, Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to Borrower by wire transfer of such funds to an account designated by Borrower in writing, in each case, in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) Administrative Agent by Borrower.

(c)    The failure of any Lender to make the Term Loan to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Term Loan on the Closing Date of, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Term Loan to be made by such other Lender on the Closing Date.
2.03    [Intentionally Reserved].
2.04    [Intentionally Reserved].
2.05    Pro Rata Shares; Availability of Funds.
(a)    Pro Rata Shares.  All Loans shall be made by Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder nor shall any Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder.
(b)    Availability of Funds.  Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable Credit Date that such Lender does not intend to make available to Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Loan requested on such Credit Date, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to Administrative Agent on such Credit Date and Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount on such Credit Date.  If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to Administrative Agent by such Lender, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from such Credit Date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate for three (3) Business Days and thereafter at the Overnight Rate plus 2% per annum.  If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to Administrative Agent together with interest thereon, for each day from such Credit Date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent, at the rate payable hereunder for such Loans.  Nothing in this Section 2.05(b) shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Borrower or Administrative Agent may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.
2.06    Evidence of Debt; Register; Lenders’ Books and Records; Notes.
(a)    Lenders’ Evidence of Debt.  Each Lender shall maintain on its internal records an account or accounts evidencing the Obligations of Borrower to such Lender, including the amounts of the Loans made by it and each repayment and prepayment in respect thereof.  Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower, absent manifest error; provided, that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any Loans; and provided, further, in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the recordations in the Register shall govern.

(b)    Register.  Administrative Agent shall maintain at its Principal Office, a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders, and the principal and interest amounts of the Loans and payments owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender (with respect to its own interests) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  Administrative Agent shall record in the Register the Commitments, the Loans, and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans (and stated interest thereon), and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest error; provided, failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Commitments or Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any Loan.  Borrower hereby designates the entity serving as Administrative Agent to serve as Borrower’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register (and such agency being solely for tax purposes) as provided in this Section 2.06, and Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent such entity serves in such capacity, the entity serving as Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates shall constitute “Indemnitees.”
(c)    Notes.  If so requested by any Lender by written notice to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, or at any time thereafter, Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 10.06) on the Closing Date (or, if such notice is delivered after the Closing Date, promptly after Borrower’s receipt of such notice) a Note or Notes to evidence such Lender’s Term Loan.
2.07    Interest on Loans.  
(a)    Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Term Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to 5.00% plus the PIK RateApplicable Margin. For the avoidance of doubt, all interest consisting of the Applicable Margin shall be included in the PIK Rate and treated as PIK Amounts for all purposes hereunder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing clause (a), so long as on or prior to the applicable dates specified in the table below, the Credit Parties have not otherwise made prepayments of the Senior Indebtedness after the Sixth Amendment Effective Date in an aggregate principal amount equal to at least $100,000,000, other than with the proceeds of Indebtedness, the Term Loan shall bear interest at a rate which is the percentage per annum specified in the table below in excess of the rate otherwise payable hereunder, with all such additional percentage per annum, to be included in the PIK Rate and treated as PIK Amounts for all purposes hereunder:

	
			
	Applicable time period
	Percentage per annum in excess of rate otherwise applicable

	From the date that is 90 days after the Sixth Amendment Effective Date to, but not including, the date that is 120 days after the Sixth Amendment Effective Date
	1.00%

	From the date that is 120 days after the Sixth Amendment Effective Date to, but not including, the date that is 150 days after the Sixth Amendment Effective Date
	1.50%

	From the date that is 150 days after the Sixth Amendment Effective Date to, but not including, the date that is 180 days after the Sixth Amendment Effective Date
	2.00%

	From the date that is 180 days after the Sixth Amendment Effective Date to, but not including, the date that is 210 days after the Sixth Amendment Effective Date
	2.50%

	From and after the date that is 210 days after the Sixth Amendment Effective Date:
	3.00%

	 
	 

It being understood and agreed that the additional interest rates set forth in the table above shall not be applicable at any time after the Credit Parties shall have made prepayments of the Senior Indebtedness following the Sixth Amendment Effective Date in an aggregate principal amount equal to at least $100,000,000, other than with the proceeds of Indebtedness.
(b)    Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.07(a) shall be computed on the basis of a 360‐day year, in each case, for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues.  In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan shall be included, and the date of repayment of such Loan shall be excluded; provided, if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan. 
(c)    Except as otherwise set forth herein, interest on each Loan shall be payable, in Cash, in arrears on and to (i) each Interest Payment Date applicable to that Loan; (ii) upon any prepayment of that Loan, whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid; and (iii) at maturity, including the Maturity Date; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, without action by any party, on each Interest Payment Date, the portion of the interest rate accrued at the PIK Rate shall (rather than being paid in Cash) be capitalized and treated as additional principal obligations under the Term Loan subject to the terms of this Agreement.  Such PIK Amounts shall accrue interest at the same rates (including the Default Rate) as are applicable to the Term Loans under this Agreement, shall form part of the Obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and shall be payable in full, in Cash, on the Maturity Date. 
2.08    [Intentionally Reserved].
2.09    Default Interest.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (1) automatically upon acceleration or the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 

8.01(a), (f) or (g), and (2) at the option of the Requisite Lenders if any other Event of Default under Section 8.01(b), (c), (e), (k), (l),or (m) has occurred and is continuing, the Obligations shall bear interest at a rate that is 2.003.00% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the Loans, in each case, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws.  Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.09 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Administrative Agent or any Lender.  Any interest charged under this Section 2.09 shall be added to the PIK Rate and treated as PIK AmountAmounts; provided, that such amounts may be capitalized more frequently at Administrative Agent’s discretion (but no more frequently than once per month).
2.10    Fees.  
(a)    In addition to any other fees specified herein, Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent such other fees in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified, including those set forth in the Fee Letter.  Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever (except as expressly agreed between Borrower and Administrative Agent).
(b)    Borrower agrees to pay on the Closing Date to each Lender party to this Agreement on the Closing Date, as fee compensation for the funding of such Lender’s Term Loan on the Closing Date, a closing fee (the “Closing Fee”) in an amount equal to 1.00% of the stated principal amount of such Lender’s Term Loans made on the Closing Date.  Such Closing Fees will be in all respects fully earned, due and payable on the Closing Date and non-refundable and non-creditable thereafter and such Closing Fee shall be netted against the Term Loans made by such Lender.
(c)    If (i) the principal balance of the Term Loan is repaid, prepaid, refinanced or replaced, for any reason, in whole or in part, (ii) the Obligations are accelerated in accordance with Section 8.01, (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under Section 8.01(f) or 8.01(g) or (iv) there is a restructuring, reorganization or compromise of the Obligations by the confirmation of any plan of reorganization or any other plan of compromise, restructure, or arrangement in any case under the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law (each of clauses (i) through (iv) above, referred to herein as a “Prepayment Event”), in each case, on or prior to the second anniversary of the ClosingSixth Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower shall pay to GSSLG, for the benefit of all Lenders entitled to a portion of the principal amount of the affected Term Loans, an amount (the “Yield MaintenancePrepayment Premium”) equal to (1) the aggregate amount of interest (including interest payable in cash, in kind or deferred and interest at the Default Rate, if applicable) which would have otherwise been payable onfour percent (4.00%) of the principal amount of the Term Loan subject to theso repaid, prepaid, refinanced or replaced, with respect to any Prepayment Event from the date of the occurrence of such Prepayment Event until the secondoccurring on or prior to the first anniversary of the ClosingSixth Amendment Effective Date minus, and (2) the aggregate amount of interest Lenders would earn iftwo percent (2.00%) of the principal amount of the affected Term Loans were reinvested for the period from the date of the occurrence of suchLoan so 

repaid, prepaid, refinanced or replaced, with respect to any Prepayment Event untiloccurring after the first anniversary of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date but on or prior to the second anniversary of the ClosingSixth Amendment Effective Date at the Treasury Rate plus 0.50% per annum.  No amount will be payable pursuant to the foregoing provisions with respect to (a) any prepayment of all or any part of any Loan on or after the second anniversary of the ClosingSixth Amendment Effective Date or (b) any mandatory prepayment required to be made under Section 2.13(b).  In addition, (x) in the event of a refinancing of the Term Loan pursuant to which any of the Lenders or their respective Affiliates or Related Funds is a party (any such Lender which is a party to such refinancing or whose respective Affiliates or Related Funds is a party to such refinancing, a “Continuing Lender”), no Prepayment Premium shall be due hereunder to any Continuing Lender in respect of any Prepayment Event resulting from such refinancing, (y) if (1) a refinancing of the Term Loan occurs on or prior to the first anniversary of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date, (2) GSSLG is offered a participation in such refinancing in an amount equal to at least the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan as of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date, and (3) GSSLG declines such participation, the Prepayment Premium due hereunder to GSSLG shall be reduced to two percent (2.00%) of the principal amount of the Term Loan held by GSSLG so refinanced, and (z) if (1) a refinancing of the Term Loan occurs following the first anniversary of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date and on or prior to the second anniversary of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date, (2) GSSLG is offered a participation in such refinancing in an amount equal to at least the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan as of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date, and (3) GSSLG declines such participation, the Prepayment Premium due hereunder to GSSLG shall be reduced to one percent (1.00%) of the principal amount of the Term Loan held by GSSLG so refinanced.  Payment of any Yield MaintenancePrepayment Premium hereunder constitutes liquidated damages and not a penalty and the actual amount of damages to GSSLG and the Lenders or profits lost by GSSLG and the Lenders as a result of such prepayment would be impracticable and extremely difficult to ascertain, and the Yield MaintenancePrepayment Premium hereunder is provided by mutual agreement of the Borrower, GSSLG and the Lenders as a reasonable estimation and calculation of such lost profits or damages of GSSLG and the Lenders.
2.11    Repayment of Loans.  The Loans, together with all other amounts owed hereunder with respect thereto, shall, in any event, be paid in full no later than the Maturity Date.  
2.12    Voluntary Prepayments.  Subject to any applicable restrictions under the Senior Subordination Agreement, any time and from time to time, Borrower may prepay the Term Loans without penalty or premium (except as provided in Section 2.10) on any Business Day in whole or in part, in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding.  Any such prepayments shall be made upon not less than one (1) Business Day’s prior written or telephonic notice given to Administrative Agent by Borrower by 2:00 p.m. on the date required and, if given by telephone, promptly confirmed in writing to Administrative Agent (and Administrative Agent will promptly transmit such notice by telephone or facsimile or other electronic communication to each Lender and of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share or other applicable share as provided for in this Agreement of such prepayment).  Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment.  Upon the giving of any such notice, the principal amount of the Loans specified in 

such notice shall become due and payable on the prepayment date specified therein and each such prepayment shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share or other applicable share as provided for in this Agreement.  Any such voluntary prepayment shall be applied as specified in Section 2.14.  No Lender may reject any voluntary prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.12.
2.13    Mandatory Prepayments.
(a)    Issuance of Debt.  On the date of receipt by Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Cash proceeds from the incurrence of any Indebtedness of Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than with respect to any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 6.01), Borrower shall make prepayments in accordance with Sections 2.13(d) and 2.14 in an aggregate principal amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and other reasonable costs and expenses associated therewith, in each case, including reasonable legal fees and expenses.
(b)    Consolidated Excess Cash Flow.  In the event that there shall be Consolidated Excess Cash Flow for any Consolidated Excess Cash Flow Period (commencing with Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2017), Borrower shall, no later than five (5) Business Days after the date on which the financial statements and the related Compliance Certificate have been delivered pursuant to Sections 5.01(c) and 5.01(d) with respect to each Fiscal Year, make prepayments of Term Loans in accordance with Sections 2.13(c) and 2.14 in an aggregate amount equal to (A) the Applicable ECF Percentage of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow for such Consolidated Excess Cash Flow Period then ended minus, (B) to the extent not funded with long-term indebtedness (other than revolving Indebtedness) or Specified Equity Contributions, the aggregate principal amount of any (x) loans prepaid pursuant to Section 2.12 or Section 2.12 of the Senior Credit Agreement (in the case of any prepayment of revolving loans, to the extent accompanied by a corresponding permanent reduction in the relevant commitment), and (y) loans assigned to or purchased by Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 10.06(c)(iv) of the Senior Credit Agreement (as in effect on the date hereof) and Loans assigned to or purchased by Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 10.06(c)(iv) (in each(in any case under this clause (y), based upon the actual amount of Cash paid in connection with the relevant assignment or purchase), and, in the case of clauses (x) and (y) to the extent such prepayment, assignment or purchase was made during any Excess Cash Flow Period or, without duplication across such period, after year-end and prior to the date when such Consolidated Excess Cash Flow prepayment is due.
(c)    Notice of Prepayment.  Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent by written notice of any mandatory prepayment required to be made under Section 2.13(a) or (b) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment.  Each such notice shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount to be prepaid, the sub-paragraph of Section 2.13 pursuant to which such prepayment is made and a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment.  Promptly following receipt of any such notice, Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the contents thereof and such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the prepayment.  Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.07.  In the event that Borrower shall subsequently determine that the actual amount received (and required to be prepaid 

pursuant to Section 2.13) exceeded the amount set forth in such notice (and actually prepaid pursuant to Section 2.13), Borrower shall promptly make an additional prepayment of the Term Loans in an amount equal to such excess, and Borrower shall concurrently therewith deliver to Administrative Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer demonstrating the derivation of such excess.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Lender may reject all or a portion of its Pro Rata Share of any mandatory prepayment (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) pursuant to clause (a) and (b) of this Section 2.13 by providing written notice (each, a “Rejection Notice”) to Administrative Agent and Borrower no later than 5:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day prior to the date of such prepayment as specified in the relevant notice.  Each Rejection Notice from a given Lender shall specify the principal amount of the mandatory prepayment of Term Loans to be rejected by such Lender.  If a Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such Rejection Notice fails to specify the principal amount of the Term Loans to be rejected, any such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory repayment of Term Loans.  Any Declined Proceeds shall be (1) offered to the Lenders not so declining such prepayment on a pro rata basis in accordance with the amounts of the Term Loans of such Lender (with such non-declining Lenders having the right to decline any prepayment with Declined Proceeds at the time and in the manner specified by the Administrative Agent) and (2) to the extent such non-declining Lenders elect to decline their Pro Rata Share of such Declined Proceeds, retained by Borrower and shall increase the Available Amount on a dollar-for-dollar basis.
(d)    Subordination Provisions.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.13, at any time prior to the Final Payment of the Senior Indebtedness, any principal payment that is otherwise required to be made under Section 2.13 (a) or (b) (but for this sentence) shall not be required to be so made if the related cash proceeds giving rise to the payment obligation hereunder are applied to the Senior Indebtedness in accordance with the Senior Documents.
(a)    [*] 
2.14    Application of Prepayments.  Any prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.12 or Section 2.13 shall be applied to the outstanding principal of the Term Loans and shall be accompanied by all amounts required by Section 2.15(b).
2.15    General Provisions Regarding Payments.
(a)    All payments by Borrower of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made in Dollars in immediately available funds (other than interest that accrues at the PIK Rate and is capitalized in accordance with Section 2.07), without defense, recoupment, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to Administrative Agent, for the account of Lenders, prior to 1:00 p.m. on the date due at the Administrative Agent’s Principal Office; funds received by Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall be deemed to have been paid by Borrower on the next Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.
(b)    All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest (other than interest accrued at the PIK Rate) on, and any fees and costs required to be paid with respect to, the principal amount being repaid or prepaid.

(c)    Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender at such address and/or account as such Lender shall indicate in writing, such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due with respect thereto, including all fees payable with respect thereto, to the extent received by Administrative Agent.
(d)    Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder or of the commitment fees hereunder.
(e)    Administrative Agent shall deem any payment by or on behalf of Borrower hereunder that is not made in immediately available funds prior to 1:00 p.m. to be a non‐conforming payment.  Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice to Borrower and each applicable Lender (confirmed in writing) if any payment is non‐conforming.  Any non‐conforming payment may constitute or become a Default or an Event of Default in accordance with the terms of Section 8.01(a).  
(f)    Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders that Borrower will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has been made on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due.  In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. 
(g)    A notice of Administrative Agent to any Lender or Borrower with respect to any amount owing under Section 2.05(b) and/or Section 2.15(f) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
2.16    Ratable Sharing.  Lenders hereby agree among themselves that, except in respect of amounts owing under the Fee Letter, if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of set‐off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a portion of such payment to purchase (for Cash at face value) participations in the Loans of the other Lenders in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion 

to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided, if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Credit Party or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.  Each Credit Party expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set‐off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by a Credit Party to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder.  For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement as in effect from time to time or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant permitted hereunder.  Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 2.16 and will, in each case, notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments.  Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased.  For purposes of the definition of Indemnified Taxes, a Lender that acquires a participation pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be treated as having acquired such participation on the earlier date(s) on which such Lender acquired the applicable interest(s) in the Commitment(s) and/or Loan(s) to which such participation relates.
2.17    [Intentionally Reserved].
2.18    Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.
(a)    Compensation For Increased Costs and Taxes.  Subject to the provisions of Section 2.19 (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Lender shall determine in good faith (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation, determination, guideline or order, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or application thereof (including the introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order), or any determination of a court or Governmental Authority or making or issuance of any request, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) by any Governmental Authority, in each case, that becomes effective after the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender with any guideline, request or directive issued, made or becoming effective after the date hereof by any central bank or other governmental or quasi‐governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law):  (i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any additional Tax (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, Federal Deposit Insurance 

Corporation insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender; or (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to Taxes) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations hereunder; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto, including by imposing, modifying or holding applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against its loans, loan principal, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto then, in any such case, Borrower shall pay to such Lender within fifteen (15) days after receipt by Borrower from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder; provided, that no Credit Party shall be required to compensate any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.18(a) for any increased costs incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that Borrower receives such statement from such Lender, provided, further, that if the circumstances giving rise to such costs are retroactive, then the 180‐day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect.  Such Lender shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.18(a), which statement shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.
(b)    Capital Adequacy or Liquidity Adjustment.  In the event that any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that (A) the adoption, effectiveness, phase‐in or applicability of any law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy or liquidity, or any change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) or any company Controlling such Lender with any guideline, request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, in each case, after the Closing Date, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender’s or any company Controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender Loans or Commitments or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans to a level below that which such Lender or such Controlling company could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase‐in, applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such Controlling company with regard to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after receipt by Borrower from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Controlling company for such reduction; provided, that no Credit Party shall be required to compensate any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.18(b) in respect of any reduction of return or other triggering event under this Section 2.18(b) that occurred more than 180 days prior to the date that Borrower 

receives such statement from such Lender; provided, further, that if the circumstances giving rise to such reduction of return or other triggering event are retroactive, then the 180‐day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect.  Such Lender shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to Lender under this Section 2.18(b), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.  For the avoidance of doubt, subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 2.18 shall apply to all requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning liquidity and capital adequacy issued by any United States or foreign regulatory authority (i) under or in connection with the implementation of the Dodd‐Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and (ii) in connection with the implementation of the recommendations of the Bank for International Settlements or the Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices (or any successor or similar authority), regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto).
(c)    Limitations.  If a Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.18 or it anticipates that the adoption, effectiveness, phase‐in or applicability after the Closing Date of any law, treaty, governmental rule, determination, guideline, order or regulation will result in a claim by it under this Section 2.18, it shall use reasonable efforts to promptly notify Borrower thereof; provided, however, that any failure or delay by any Lender in providing such notification shall not affect such Lender’s right to receive any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.18 (except as expressly set forth in this Section 2.18).
2.19    Taxes; Withholding, Etc.
(a)    Payments to Be Free and Clear.  All sums payable by any Credit Party hereunder and under the other Credit Documents shall (except to the extent required by law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Tax.
(b)    Withholding of Taxes.  If any applicable law requires deduction or withholding on account of any Tax from any sum paid or payable by any Withholding Agent under any of the Credit Documents:  (i) such Withholding Agent shall notify the applicable Recipient of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement promptly upon becoming aware of it; (ii) such Withholding Agent shall pay any Tax before the date on which penalties attach thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on any Credit Party) for its own account or (if that liability is imposed on Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be) on behalf of and in the name of Administrative Agent or such Lender; (iii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by such Credit Party in respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding or payment is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of that deduction, withholding or payment, Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due date a sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction, withholding or payment been required or made; and (iv) within thirty (30) days after paying any sum from which it is required by law to make any deduction or withholding, and within thirty (30) days after the due date of payment of any Tax which it is required by clause (ii) above to pay, such Withholding Agent shall deliver to Administrative Agent evidence reasonably satisfactory to the 

other affected parties of such deduction, withholding or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority.  
(c)    Status of Lenders. 
(i)    Any Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to 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 Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of such documentation prescribed by applicable law, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made, or to otherwise enable Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentence, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in this Section 2.19(c)(ii) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender
(ii)    Each Lender (and, to the extent applicable, its beneficiary owner) that is not a U.S. Person for U.S. federal income tax purposes (a “Non‐U.S. Lender”) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Administrative Agent for transmission to Borrower, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof on the Closing Date) or on or prior to the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Borrower or Administrative Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (i) two copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W‐8BEN, or W-8BEN-E, W‐8IMY or W‐8ECI (or any successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and, in each case, such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by Borrower to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Credit Documents, or (ii) if such Lender is not a “bank” or other Person described in Section 881(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and cannot deliver Internal Revenue Service Form W‐8ECI pursuant to clause (i) above, an applicable Certificate Regarding Non‐Bank Status together with two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W‐8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by Borrower to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender under any of the Credit Documents.  Each Lender that is a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) for United States federal income tax purposes (a “U.S. Lender”) 

shall deliver to Administrative Agent and Borrower on or prior to the Closing Date (or, if later, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement) two copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W‐9 (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, certifying that such U.S. Lender is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax.  Each Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to this Section 2.19(c) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Lender shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent for transmission to Borrower two new copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W‐8BEN or W-8BEN-E, W‐8IMY or W‐8ECI, W‐9 or an applicable Certificate Regarding Non‐Bank Status and two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W‐8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor form), as the case may be, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by Borrower to confirm or establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to payments to such Lender under the Credit Documents and shall deliver such forms within a reasonable time after written receipt thereof from Borrower or Administrative Agent.
Each Lender shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (c), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(d)    Tax Refunds.  If any Lender or Administrative Agent determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund in respect of any Indemnified Taxes as to which indemnification or additional amounts have been paid to it by any Credit Party pursuant to this Section 2.19, it shall promptly remit the portion of such refund to such Credit Party that it determines in its sole discretion will leave it in no better or worse after‐tax financial position (taking into account all out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant taxing authority which specifically relates to such refund)) than it would have been in if the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund had never been imposed in the first instance; provided, that the relevant Credit Party agrees to promptly return such refund to the Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the event such party is required to repay such refund to the relevant taxing authority (including any interest and penalties).  Nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of a Lender or Administrative Agent to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit nor oblige any Lender or 

Administrative Agent to claim any tax refund or make available its tax returns or other confidential information or disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or require any Lender or Administrative Agent to do anything that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other refunds, credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled.
(e)    Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower.  Borrower 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.
(f)    Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.19 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 this Agreement and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of the Obligations.
2.20    Obligation to Mitigate.  Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible for administering its Loans becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Section 2.18 or 2.19, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (a) make, issue, fund or maintain its Credit Extensions through another office of such Lender, or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.18 or 2.19 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Commitments or Loans through such other office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Commitments or Loans or the interests of such Lender; provided, such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this Section 2.20 unless Borrower agrees to pay all incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such other office as described above.  A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.20 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error.
2.21    [Intentionally Reserved].
2.22    Removal or Replacement of a Lender.  Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that:  (a) (i) any Lender shall give notice to Borrower that such Lender is an Affected Lender or that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under Section 2.18 or 2.19 (such Lender, an “Increased‐Cost Lender”), (ii) the circumstances which have caused such Lender to be an Affected Lender or which entitle such Lender to receive such payments shall remain in effect, and (iii) such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five (5) Business Days after Borrower’s request for such withdrawal; or (b) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Sections 10.05(b) or 10.05(c), the consent of Requisite Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each a “Non‐Consenting Lender”) 

whose consent is required shall not have been obtained; then, in any case, with respect to each such Increased‐Cost Lender or Non‐Consenting Lender (the “Terminated Lender”), Borrower may, by giving written notice to Administrative Agent and any Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its outstanding Loans, if any, in full to one or more Eligible Assignees (each a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06 and Terminated Lender shall pay any fees payable thereunder in connection with such assignment; provided, (1) on the date of such assignment, Borrower or the Replacement Lender shall pay to the Terminated Lender in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of such Terminated Lender and (B) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.10; (2) on the date of such assignment, Borrower shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.18 and/or 2.19, (3) in the event such Terminated Lender is a Non‐Consenting Lender, each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender was a Non‐Consenting Lender; (4) such assignment shall not conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction; (5) Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of Administrative Agent which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, delayed or conditioned; (6) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.18 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.19, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter and (7) the Lender that acts as Administrative Agent cannot be replaced in its capacity as Administrative Agent other than in accordance with Section 9.06.  Upon the payment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender and the termination of such Terminated Lender’s Commitments, if any, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender.  Each Lender agrees that if Borrower exercises its option hereunder to cause an assignment by such Lender as a Terminated Lender, such Lender shall, promptly after receipt of written notice of such election, execute and deliver all documentation necessary to effectuate such assignment in accordance with Section 10.06; it being understood that such Lender being replaced pursuant to this Section 2.22 shall (1) execute and deliver an Assignment Agreement with respect to all, or a portion as applicable, of such Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans and (2) deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to Borrower or Administrative Agent (or a lost or destroyed note indemnity in lieu thereof); provided that the failure of any such Lender to execute an Assignment Agreement or deliver such Notes shall not render such sale and purchase (and the corresponding assignment) invalid and such assignment may be recorded in the Register and the Notes shall be deemed to be canceled upon such failure.  In the event that a Lender does not comply with the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence within one (1) Business Day after receipt of such notice, each Lender hereby authorizes and directs Administrative Agent to execute and deliver such documentation as may be required to give effect to an assignment in accordance with Section 10.06 on behalf of a Non‐Consenting Lender or other Terminated Lender and any such documentation so executed by Administrative Agent shall be effective for purposes of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 10.06.  Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Credit Document to the contrary, (i) no restriction on prepayment shall affect the rights of Borrower under this Section 2.22 and (ii) a Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation pursuant to this Section 

2.22 if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

The Capital Stock of Borrower and all of the Restricted Subsidiaries of Borrower has been duly authorized and validly issued and is fully paid and non‐assessable.

(or any Parent) and/or any Restricted Subsidiary and/or (b) the Senior Indebtedness is repaid or prepaid, in full, in cash (other than in connection with a Permitted Refinancing thereof), then, in either case, the levels for the Financial Covenant set forth in the table above shall be revised to (1) take into account the aggregate principal amount of Consolidated Total Debt outstanding on the date of such payment, exchange or conversion (after giving effect to such prepayment, exchange and/or conversion) and (2) reflect a cushion to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA similar to the cushion then in effect immediately prior to such prepayment, exchange and/or conversion with respect to the levels set forth in clause (i) above on the date of such prepayment, exchange and/or conversion.  Borrower and Administrative Agent may effect the provisions of this Section 6.08(a)(ii), without the consent of any other Credit Party, Agent or Lender, with such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of Administrative Agent and the Borrower.  This Section 6.08(a)(ii) shall supersede any provisions in Section 10.05 to the contrary.

(iii)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, [*].  This Section 6.08(a)(iii) shall supersede any provisions in Section 10.05 to the contrary.
(b)    Equity Cure Right.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 8.01, solely for the purpose of determining whether an Event of Default has occurred under the Total Net Leverage Ratio set forth in Section 6.08(a) as of the last day of any Fiscal Quarter, for the period commencing after the last day of the applicable Fiscal Quarter until the tenth (10) Business Day after the date on which financial statements for such Fiscal Quarter are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(b) (or in the case of the fourth Fiscal Quarter, the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(c)) (the “Cure Deadline”), Borrower (or any Parent) shall have the right to contribute Cash proceeds from a Permitted Stock Issuance to the capital of the Credit Parties prior to the Cure Deadline and apply the amount of the proceeds so contributed to increase Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for such Fiscal Quarter solely for the purposes of determining compliance with such Financial Covenant at the end of such Fiscal Quarter and any subsequent period that includes such Fiscal Quarter (any such equity contribution so included in the calculation of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, a “Specified Equity Contribution”); provided that (a) the Specified Equity Contribution is actually received by Borrower after the last day of the applicable Fiscal Quarter and no later than the Cure Deadline, (b) in each consecutive four (4) Fiscal Quarter period there will be at least two (2) consecutive Fiscal Quarters in which no Specified Equity Contribution is made, (c) the amount of any Specified Equity Contribution will be no greater than the amount required to cause Borrower to be in compliance with the Financial Covenant, (d) all Specified Equity Contributions will be disregarded for purposes of the calculation of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for all other purposes, including calculating basket levels, financial ratio based conditions, pricing and other items governed by reference to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, (e) there shall be no more than five (5) Specified Equity Contributions made in the aggregate after the Closing Date and (f) any Specified Equity Contribution shall be required to be applied to prepay any then outstanding principal amount of Term Loans or, subject to the Senior Subordination Agreement, the Senior Indebtedness; provided, that any loans so prepaid shall be deemed outstanding for purposes of determining compliance with the Financial Covenant for the current Fiscal Quarter and the next three (3) Fiscal Quarters thereafter, and the cash proceeds from such Specified Equity Contribution shall not be included for cash netting purposes in the 

determination of Consolidated Total Debt or any financial ratio.  Upon the making of any Specified Equity Contribution in accordance with the previous sentence, the  Financial Covenant shall be recalculated giving effect to the following adjustments on a Pro Forma Basis:  (A) Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for such Fiscal Quarter shall be increased with respect to such applicable Fiscal Quarter (solely for the purposes of determining compliance with such covenants at the end of such Fiscal Quarter and any subsequent period that includes such Fiscal Quarter), by an amount equal to the Specified Equity Contribution; and (B) if, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations, Borrower shall then be in compliance with the requirements of the Financial Covenant, Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of the  Financial Covenant as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of the Financial Covenant that had occurred shall be deemed cured for purposes of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon receipt by Administrative Agent of a notice from the Borrower prior to the Cure Deadline of its intent to cure such Event of Default (“Notice of Intent to Cure”), through the Cure Deadline no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred on the basis of any failure to comply with the Financial Covenant unless such failure is not cured pursuant to the Notice of Intent to Cure on or prior to the Cure Deadline.  No Specified Equity Contribution shall be applied to (i) increase the Available Amount, (ii) make any Consolidated Capital Expenditures or (iii) make an Investment pursuant to Section 6.07(m) or (s).

Section 7.    Guaranty.
7.01    Guaranty of the Obligations.  Subject to the provisions of Section 7.02, Guarantors jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranty to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Beneficiaries the due and punctual payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, demand, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest (including any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of (i) the Bankruptcy Code after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition under the Bankruptcy Code and (ii) any other Debtor Relief Laws) on the Loans made by the Lenders to, and the Notes held by each Lender of, the Borrower, and all other Obligations from time to time owing to the Beneficiaries by any Credit Party under any Credit Document, in each case, strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”).
7.02    Contribution by Guarantors.  All Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves (collectively, the “Contributing Guarantors”), in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty.  Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by 

a Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) under this Guaranty such that its Aggregate Payments exceeds its Fair Share as of such date, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each Contributing Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date.  “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Contributing Guarantor, to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors multiplied by, (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under this Guaranty in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.  “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under this Guaranty that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state law; provided, solely for purposes of calculating the “Fair Share Contribution Amount” with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this Section 7.02, any assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor.  “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (1) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including, without limitation, in respect of this Section 7.02), minus (2) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor from the other Contributing Guarantors as contributions under this Section 7.02.  The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor.  The allocation among Contributing Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this Section 7.02 shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Contributing Guarantor hereunder.  Each Guarantor is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 7.02.  Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 7.06 below.
7.03    Payment by Guarantors.  The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Beneficiary may have at law or in equity against any Person (including any other Guarantor by virtue hereof), that upon the failure of Borrower or other Guarantor to pay in full any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Debtor Relief Law), the Guarantors will promptly pay, or cause to be paid, in Cash to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Beneficiaries, without any demand or notice whatsoever, an amount equal to the full unpaid principal amount of all Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for Borrower becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Debtor Relief Law, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against Borrower for such interest in the related bankruptcy case) and all other Guaranteed Obligations then owed to Beneficiaries as aforesaid and in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of 

the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.  Any payment made in accordance with this section shall be without defense, recoupment, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition (other than payment in full in Cash of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent obligations not yet due and owing).  
7.04    Liability of Guarantors Absolute.  Each Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than payment in full in Cash of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent obligations not yet due and owing).  In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees as follows:
(a)    this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not of collectability.  This Guaranty is a primary obligation of each Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety;
(b)    Administrative Agent may enforce this Guaranty upon the occurrence of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between Borrower and any Beneficiary with respect to the existence of such Event of Default;
(c)    the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Borrower and the obligation of any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the obligations of Borrower and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any other Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against Borrower or any of such other guarantors and whether or not Borrower is joined in any such action or actions;
(d)    payment by any Person (including any other Guarantor) of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge any Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which has not been paid.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Administrative Agent is awarded a judgment in any suit brought to enforce any Guarantor’s covenant to pay a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, such judgment shall not be deemed to release such Guarantor from its covenant to pay the portion of the Guaranteed Obligations that is not the subject of such suit, and such judgment shall not, except to the extent satisfied by such Guarantor, limit, affect, modify or abridge any other Guarantor’s liability hereunder in respect of the full unpaid amount of Guaranteed Obligations;
(e)    any payment by Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to Borrower shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to the Guarantors;
(f)    any Beneficiary, upon such terms as it deems appropriate, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or enforceability hereof or giving rise in any way to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination of any Guarantor’s liability hereunder, from time to time may: 
(i)    renew, extend, accelerate, increase the principal amount of, increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of 

the Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with the terms of the underlying Credit Documents (including, without limitation, any amendment thereto, consent to departure therefrom, or waiver thereof); 
(ii)    settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations; 
(iii)    request and accept other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations and take and hold security for the payment hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations; 
(iv)    in accordance with the terms of the underlying Credit Documents (including any amendment thereto, consent to departure therefrom, or waiver thereof), release, surrender, exchange, substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person (including any other Guarantor) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; 
(v)    enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of such Beneficiary in respect hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right or remedy that such Beneficiary may have against any such security, in each case, as such Beneficiary in its discretion may determine consistent herewith and any applicable security agreement, including foreclosure on any such security pursuant to one or more judicial or non-judicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and even though such action operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against Borrower or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; and 
(vi)    exercise any other rights available to it under the Credit Documents; and
(g)    this Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than payment in full in Cash of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent obligations not yet due and owing)), including the occurrence of any of the following, whether occurring before, upon or after any demand for payment hereunder, and whether or not any Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them:  (i) the asserting or enforcing of any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Credit Documents, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto or with respect to any other guarantee of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Credit Documents 

and/or at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to events of default) of this Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case, whether or not in accordance with the terms hereof or such Credit Document or any agreement relating to such other guaranty or security; (iv) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (v) the application of payments received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the other Credit Documents or from the proceeds of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as collateral for indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations) to the payment of indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though any Beneficiary might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) any Beneficiary’s consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries, any change in the ownership, control, name, objects, business or assets of any Credit Party, any corresponding restructuring of the Guaranteed Obligations; any amalgamation or consolidation of any Credit Party with any other Person or the consent thereto by any Beneficiary to the extent that such actions are not permitted hereunder; (vii) any failure to perfect or continue perfection (or the release) of any Lien in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (viii) any defenses, set‐offs or counterclaims which any Credit Party may allege or assert against any Beneficiary or any other Credit Party or Person in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury; (ix) any limitation of status or power, disability, in capacity or other circumstance relating to any Credit Party or any other Person, including any insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment, composition, dissolution, winding‐up or other proceeding involving or affecting any Credit Party or any other Person; and (x) other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.
7.05    Waivers by Guarantors.  Each Guarantor hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, for the benefit of the Beneficiaries:  (a) any right to require any Beneficiary, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (i) proceed against Borrower, any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Borrower, any such other guarantor or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any Deposit Account or credit on the books of any Beneficiary in favor of Borrower or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Beneficiary whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Borrower or any other Person (including any other Guarantor) including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of Borrower or any other Person (including any other Guarantor) from any cause other than payment in full in Cash of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent obligations not yet due and owing); (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule 

of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon any Beneficiary’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith (as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction); (e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set‐offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Beneficiary protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto; (f) all notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor or non‐payment, notices or proof of reliance, and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance hereof, notices of default hereunder or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to Borrower and notices of any of the matters referred to in Section 7.04 and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms hereof. 
7.06    Guarantors’ Rights of Subrogation, Etc.  Until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full in Cash (other than contingent obligations not yet due and owing), each Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Borrower or any other guarantor of the Obligations (including any other Guarantor) or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case, whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including without limitation (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Borrower with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that any Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against Borrower, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Beneficiary.  In addition, until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full in Cash (other than contingent obligations not yet due and owing) and all Commitments shall have terminated, each Guarantor shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution such Guarantor may have against any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations, including, without limitation, any such right of contribution as contemplated by Section 7.02 above.  Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Guarantor may have against Borrower or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate in right of payment and security to any rights any Beneficiary may have against Borrower, to all right, title and interest any Beneficiary may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right any Beneficiary may have against such other guarantor (including any other Guarantor).  If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification 

or contribution rights at any time when all Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of the Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.
7.07    Subordination of Other Obligations.  Any Indebtedness of Borrower or any Guarantor now or hereafter held by (or owing to) any other Guarantor (the “Obligee Guarantor”) is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such Indebtedness collected or received by an Obligee Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of the Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof.
7.08    Continuing Guaranty.  This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full in Cash (other than contingent obligations not yet due and owing).  Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations.
7.09    Authority of Guarantors or Borrower.  It is not necessary for any Beneficiary to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Guarantor or Borrower or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them.
7.10    Financial Condition of Borrower.  Any Credit Extension may be made to Borrower or continued from time to time without notice to or authorization from any Guarantor regardless of the financial or other condition of Borrower at the time of any such grant or continuation.  No Beneficiary shall have any obligation to disclose or discuss with any Guarantor its assessment, or any Guarantor’s assessment, of the financial condition of Borrower.  Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from Borrower on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of Borrower and its ability to perform its obligations under the Credit Documents, and each Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of Borrower and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations.  Each Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any Beneficiary to disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or conditions of Borrower now known or hereafter known by any Beneficiary.
7.11    Bankruptcy, Etc.
(a)    So long as any Guaranteed Obligations (other than (i) contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and owing, and (ii) unasserted expense reimbursement obligations) remain outstanding, no Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent acting pursuant to the instructions of Requisite Lenders, commence or join with any other Person in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency case or proceeding of or against Borrower or any other Guarantor.  The obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or terminated by any case 

or proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of Borrower or any other Guarantor or by any defense which Borrower or any other Guarantor may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or administrative body resulting from any such proceeding.
(b)    Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that any interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which accrues after the commencement of any case or proceeding referred to in clause (a) above (or, if interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of such case or proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guaranteed Obligations if such case or proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guaranteed Obligations because it is the intention of Guarantors and the Beneficiaries that the Guaranteed Obligations which are guaranteed by Guarantors pursuant hereto should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order which may relieve Borrower of any portion of such Guaranteed Obligations.  Guarantors will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar Person to pay Administrative Agent, or allow the claim of Administrative Agent in respect of, any such interest accruing after the date on which such case or proceeding is commenced.
(c)    In the event that all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid by Borrower (or Guarantor), the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) are rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from any Beneficiary as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments which are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guaranteed Obligations for all purposes hereunder.
7.12    Release of a Guarantor.  If, in compliance with the terms and provisions of the Credit Documents, (i) all or substantially all of the Capital Stock or property of any Guarantor is sold or otherwise transferred to a Person or Persons none of which is a Credit Party in a transaction permitted hereunder or (ii) any Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder (any such Guarantor, and any Guarantor referred to in clause (ii), a “Transferred Guarantor”), such Transferred Guarantor shall, upon the consummation of such sale or transfer or other transaction, be automatically released from its obligations under this Agreement (including under Section 10.09 hereof); provided, however, that the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under this Agreement if such Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary of the type described in clause (a) of the definition thereof shall only be permitted if at the time such Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary of such type (1) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be outstanding, (2) after giving Pro Forma Effect to such release and the consummation of the transaction that causes such Person to be an Excluded Subsidiary of such type, the Borrower is deemed to have made a new Investment in such Person (as if such Person were then newly acquired) and such Investment is permitted at such time and (3) an Authorized Officer of the Borrower certifies to Administrative Agent compliance with preceding clauses (1) and (2); provided, further, that no such release shall occur if such Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of any obligations under the Senior Credit Documents or any Permitted Refinancing in respect thereof. 

Subject to the immediately preceding paragraph of this Section 7.12, the Guaranty made herein shall remain in full force and effect so long as any Loan or other Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and owing) hereunder which are accrued and payable shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.
7.13    Remedies.  The Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Guarantors and the Beneficiaries, the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes, if any, may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 8.01 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 8.01) for purposes of Section 7.01, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of this Section 7.
7.14    Instrument for the Payment of Money.  Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guaranty in this Section 7 constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring a motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213.
7.15    General Limitation on Guaranty Obligations.  In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other applicable law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 7.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 7.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Credit Party or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount (after giving effect to the liability under this Guaranty and the right of contribution established in Section 7.02, but before giving effect to any other guarantee (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any guarantee of the obligations under the Senior Credit Documents)) that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

Section 9.    Agents
9.01    Appointment of Agents.
(a)    Each Lender (in its capacity as Lender), hereby irrevocably appoints GSSLG to act on its behalf as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents for 

the benefit of the Beneficiaries.  The provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the benefit of Agents and Lenders and no Credit Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions thereof.  In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Agent shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries (other than to the limited extent expressly set forth in the final sentence of Section 2.06(b)).  As of the Closing Date, the Lead Arranger shall not have any obligations but shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Section 9.  
(b)    Additionally, each Lender irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes Administrative Agent to enter into the Senior Subordination Agreement on its behalf and to take such action on its behalf pursuant to the provisions of the Senior Subordination Agreement.  Each Lender agrees to be bound by the terms of the Senior Subordination Agreement.  The rights of the Lenders under the Credit Documents are subject to the Senior Subordination Agreement, and in the event of any conflict between the terms of the Credit Documents and the terms of the Senior Subordination Agreement, the terms of the Senior Subordination Agreement shall govern.  No reference to the Senior Subordination Agreement or any other intercreditor or subordination agreement in this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be construed to provide that any Credit Party is a third party beneficiary of the provisions of the Senior Subordination Agreement or such other agreement, and Borrower agrees that, except as expressly set forth in the Senior Subordination Agreement, nothing in the Senior Subordination Agreement or such other agreement is intended or shall impair the obligation of any Credit Party to pay the obligations under this Agreement, or any other Credit Document as and when the same become due and payable in accordance with their respective terms, or to affect the relative rights of the creditors with respect to any Credit Party or, except as expressly otherwise provided in the Senior Subordination Agreement or such other agreement as to a Credit Party’s obligations.
9.02    Powers and Duties.  Each Lender (in its capacities as a Lender) irrevocably authorizes each Agent to take such action on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Credit Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as are reasonably incidental thereto.  As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Credit Documents (including enforcement or collection of the Notes), no Agent shall be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) as expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Credit Documents as directed in writing by the Requisite Lenders (or, if required hereby, all Lenders), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of Notes; provided, however, that no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, exposes such Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt refraining from any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may be a violation of an automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law.  Each Agent may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees.  No Agent shall have, by reason hereof or any of the other Credit Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender, and nothing herein or any of the other Credit Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to 

impose upon any Agent any obligations in respect hereof or any of the other Credit Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein.
9.03    General Immunity.
(a)    Exculpatory Provisions.  Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent:
(i)    makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (1) any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with the Credit Documents, (2) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (3) 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 or Event of Default, or (4) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 3 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to Administrative Agent;
(ii)    shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (1) with the consent or at the request of the Requisite Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.05) or (2) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by the final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction;
(iii)    shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” herein and in other Credit Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under any agency doctrine of any applicable law and instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties;
(iv)    shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance, observance or satisfaction of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any Credit Document on the part of any Credit Party or the existence at any time of any Default or Event of Default under the Credit Documents or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any Credit Party, and shall be deemed to have no knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless such Agent shall have received notice thereof in writing from a Lender or a Credit Party stating that a Default or Event of Default has occurred and specifying the nature thereof; 

(v)    shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity; and
(vi)    shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent that it selects as provided in Section 9.11 absent bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct by Administrative Agent (as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction) in the selection of such sub-agents.
Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to any Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with the Credit Parties or their respective Subsidiaries, any of their respective Affiliates or agents, the Credit Documents or the transactions hereunder:  (a) any identity verification procedures, (b) any record keeping, (c) any comparisons with government lists, (d) any customer notices or (e) any other procedures required under any Anti-Terrorism Law. 
Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Institutions.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall not ‎(x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or participant or prospective Lender or participant is a Disqualified Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any ‎Disqualified Institution.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender is an Affiliated Lender nor shall Administrative Agent be obligated to monitor the aggregate amount of Term Loans held by Affiliated Lenders.  Upon request by Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall promptly (and, in any case, not less than three (3) Business Days (or such shorter period as agreed to by Administrative Agent) prior to the proposed effective date of any amendment, consent or waiver pursuant to Section 10.05) provide to Administrative Agent, a complete list of all Affiliated Lenders holding Term Loans at such time.
(b)    Reliance.  Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any communication, instrument or document (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for a Credit Party and its Subsidiaries), independent accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it.  Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally (including 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 that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction 

of a Lender, Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. 
9.04    Agents Entitled to Act as Lender.  The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder.  With respect to its participation in the Loans, Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not performing the duties and functions of Administrative Agent delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context clearly otherwise expressly indicates or otherwise requires, include the Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.  Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with any Credit Party or any of its Affiliates thereof as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from the Credit Parties for services in connection herewith and otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.  All parties (i) acknowledge GSSLG and/or its Affiliates may also invest in, and/or own Capital Stock of, the Credit Parties and their respective Affiliates and (ii) waive any conflict arising therefrom.
9.05    Lenders’ Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgment.  (a) Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation and credit analysis of the financial condition and affairs of Borrower and its Subsidiaries based on the financial statements referred to in Section 5.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate in connection with Credit Extensions hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Borrower and its Subsidiaries.  Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to Lenders.
(a)    Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement as of the Closing Date or thereafter pursuant to Section 10.06 and/or funding its Loans on the Closing Date, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and/or consented to and approved, each Credit Document and each other document required to be approved by Administrative Agent, the Requisite Lenders and/or the Lenders.
(b)    Each Lender (i) represents and warrants that as of the Closing Date (or such later date as it becomes a Lender) neither such Lender nor its Affiliates or Related Funds owns or Controls, or owns or Controls any Person owning or Controlling, any trade debt or Indebtedness of any Credit Party other than the Obligations or any Capital Stock of any Credit Party (except as permitted in Section 9.04) and (ii) covenants and agrees that from and after the Closing Date neither such Lender nor its Affiliates and Related Funds shall purchase any trade debt or Indebtedness of 

any Credit Party other than the Obligations or Capital Stock described in clause (i) above (except as permitted in Section 9.04) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.
9.06    Right to Indemnity.  Each Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify each Agent, their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, partners, directors, trustees, employees, attorneys-in-fact, administrators, managers, advisors, representatives and agents of each Agent and its Affiliates, as applicable (each, an “Indemnitee Agent Party”), to the extent that such Indemnitee Agent Party shall not have been reimbursed by any Credit Party, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits or other proceedings, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which  may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitee Agent Party (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”) in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the other Credit Documents or otherwise in its capacity as such Indemnitee Agent Party in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY, OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH INDEMNITEE AGENT PARTY; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of Indemnified Costs  resulting from such Indemnitee Agent Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non‐appealable order (provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the direction of the Requisite Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 9.06).  Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to promptly reimburse each Indemnitee Agent Party promptly upon demand for its Pro Rata Share of any costs and expenses (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) payable by Borrower under Section 10.02, to the extent that such Indemnitee Agent Party is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Borrower (provided that such reimbursement by the Lenders pursuant to this Section 9.06 shall not affect the Borrower’s continuing reimbursement obligations with respect thereto).  If any indemnity furnished to any Indemnitee Agent Party for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Indemnitee Agent Party, be insufficient or become impaired, such Indemnitee Agent Party may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided, in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify any Indemnitee Agent Party against any Indemnified Costs in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof.  In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 9.06 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person.
9.07    Successor Agents.  Any Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and Borrower.  Upon notice of such resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent (which, unless an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g) has occurred and is continuing at the time of such appointment, shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).  If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty 

(30) days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which, unless an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g) shall have occurred and is continuing, shall be subject to the prior written consent of to the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and which shall be a commercial bank or trust company organized under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Credit Documents.  If within thirty (30) days after written notice is given of the retiring Agent’s resignation under this Section 9.07 no successor Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment, then on such 30th day (a) the retiring Agent’s resignation shall become effective, (b) the retiring Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Credit Documents and (c) the Requisite Lenders shall thereafter perform all duties of the retiring Agent under the Credit Documents until such time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided above.  After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent shall have become effective, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit (and the benefit of any sub-agents appointed by Administrative Agent) as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.  It is understood and agreed that the term “Agent” shall not apply to the Lead Arranger under this Section 9.07.
9.08    Guaranty.
(a)    Agents and Guaranty.  Each Lender hereby further authorizes Administrative Agent, as applicable, on behalf of and for the benefit of Lenders, to be the agent for and representative of Lenders with respect to the Guaranty.  Subject to Section 10.05, without further written consent or authorization from Lenders, Administrative Agent may release any Guarantor from the Guaranty pursuant to Section 7.12 or with respect to which Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required hereunder) have otherwise consented.
Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, the Requisite Lenders (or, if necessary, all Lenders) will promptly confirm in writing the authority of the Agents to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the applicable Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.08.  In each case, as specified in this Section 9.08, Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Credit Party such documents as such Credit Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the applicable Guaranty, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents and this Section 9.08.
(b)    Right to Enforce Guaranty.  Anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Credit Parties, Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agree that no Lender shall have any right individually to enforce the Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under any of the other Credit Documents may be exercised solely by Administrative Agent, on behalf of Beneficiaries, in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof.

9.09    Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding related to any Credit  Party, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(a)    to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans 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 and the Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Agents and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Agents under Sections 2.10 and 10.02) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(b)    to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agents and their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Agents under Sections 2.10 and 10.02.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.
9.10    Delegation of Duties.  Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Credit Document by or through any one or more co-agents, sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact appointed by Administrative Agent.  Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of this Section 9 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.  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 Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to each sub-agent appointed by Administrative Agent, (i) such sub-agent shall be a third-party beneficiary under this Agreement with respect to all such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) and shall have all of the rights and benefits of a third-party 

beneficiary, including any independent right of action to enforce such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) directly, without the consent or joinder of any other Person, against any or all of the Credit Parties and the Lenders, (ii) such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) shall not be modified or amended without the consent of such sub-agent, and (iii) such sub-agent shall only have obligations to Administrative Agent and not to any Credit Party, Lender or any other Person and no Credit Party, Lender or any other Person shall have any rights, directly or indirectly, as a third party beneficiary or otherwise, against such sub-agent.
9.11    Arranger Has No Liability.  It is understood and agreed that the Lead Arranger shall not have any duties, responsibilities or liabilities under or in respect of this Agreement whatsoever.

Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites, including the Platform) pursuant to procedures approved by Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Section 2 if such Lender has notified Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under Section 2 by electronic communication.  Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. 
Unless Administrative Agent otherwise consents in writing (i) no notices or other communications hereunder may be delivered or furnished to Administrative Agent by electronic communication, (ii) if permitted, notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement); provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been

(d)    Posting.  Each Credit Party hereby agrees that it will provide to Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and any other Credit Document, including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication (unless otherwise approved in writing by Administrative Agent) that (i) relates to a request for an extension of credit, (ii) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, (iii) provides a Notice of Intent to Cure, (iv) provides notice of any Default or Event of Default under this Agreement or (v) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or any borrowing or other extension of credit hereunder (all such non‐excluded communications, collectively, the “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium in a format reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent at such e‐mail address(es) provided to the Borrower from time to time or in such other form, including hard copy delivery thereof, as Administrative Agent shall require.  In addition, each Credit Party agrees to continue to provide the Communications to Administrative Agent in the manner specified in this Agreement or any other Credit Document or in such other form, including hard copy delivery thereof, as Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.  Nothing in this Section 10.01 shall prejudice the right of the Agents, any Lender or any Credit Party to give any notice or other communication pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document in any other manner specified in this Agreement or any other Credit Document or as any such Agent shall require.
(e)    Platform.  Each Credit Party further agrees that any Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on IntraLinks or SyndTrak or a substantially similar secure electronic transmission system (the “Platform”).  The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.”  The Agents and their respective Related Parties do not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Communications or 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, without limitation, 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 or its Related Parties in connection with the Communications or the Platform.  In no event shall any Agent or any of its Related Parties have any liability to the Credit Parties, any Lender or any other Person for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Credit Party’s or such Agent’s transmission of 

communications through the Internet, except to the extent the liability of such Person is found in a final non‐appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Person’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(f)    Public/Private.
(i)    Each Credit Party hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to distribute (A) to Public Siders (as defined below) all Communications that the Borrower identifies in writing contains no MNPI (“Public Side Communications”), and the Borrower represents and warrants that no such Public Side Communications contain any MNPI (as defined below), and, at the reasonable written request of Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to identify Public Side Communications by clearly and conspicuously marking the same as “PUBLIC”; and (B) to Private Siders (as defined below) all Communications other than Public Side Communications (such Communications, “Private Side Communications”).  The Borrower agrees to designate as Private Side Communications only those Communications or portions thereof that they reasonably believe in good faith constitute MNPI, and agree to use commercially reasonable efforts not to designate any Communications provided under Section 5.01(b), (c) and (d) as Private Side Communications.  “Private Siders” means Lenders that have personnel who wish to receive MNPI.  “Public Siders” means Lenders that have personnel who do not wish to receive MNPI; it being understood that Public Siders may be engaged in investment and other market‐related activities with respect to Borrower’s or its Affiliates’ securities or loans.  “MNPI” means material non‐public information (within the meaning of U.S. federal and state securities laws) with respect to Borrower, its Affiliates, its Subsidiaries and any of their respective securities.
(ii)    Each Lender acknowledges that U.S. federal securities laws prohibit any Person from purchasing or selling securities on the basis of material, non‐public information concerning the issuer of such securities or, subject to certain limited exceptions, from communicating such information to any other Person.  Each Lender confirms that it has developed procedures designed to ensure compliance with these securities laws.
(iii)    Each Lender acknowledges that circumstances may arise that require it to refer to Communications that may contain MNPI.  Accordingly, each Lender agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to designate at least one (1) individual to receive Private Side Communications on its behalf in compliance with its procedures and applicable requirements of law and identify such designee (including such designee’s contact information) on such Lender’s Administrative Questionnaire.  Each Lender agrees to notify Administrative Agent in writing from time to time of such Lender’s designee’s e‐mail address to which notice of the availability of Private Side Communications may be sent by electronic transmission.
(g)    Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders.  Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of 

notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof.  The Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent, each Lender and the respective Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower in the absence of gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of such Person, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with Administrative Agent may be recorded by Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 
10.02    Expenses.  The Borrower shall pay, promptly following written demand therefor: (i) (A) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents and their respective Affiliates in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein (including the obtaining and maintaining of CUSIP numbers for the Loans), the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and other Credit Documents and (B) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and its Affiliates in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and any amendment, amendment and restatement, modification or waiver of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), including in connection with post‐closing costs and expenses, including costs related to searches to confirm that security filings and recordations have been properly made (including, in the case of clauses (A) and (B), the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees charges and disbursements of one counsel to the Lead Arranger, Administrative Agent and their respective Affiliates, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction, in each case, incurred in connection with the Loans and any related documentation (including this Agreement and any other Credit Document)), and (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Lead Arranger, Administrative Agent, or any Lender and their respective Affiliates (including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel to the Agents, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates, taken as a whole, and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel to each group of similarly affected parties, taken as a whole, plus, if reasonably necessary, the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of one local counsel and regulatory counsel per relevant jurisdiction (plus one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction due to an actual or perceived conflict of interest for each group of similarly affected parties) and, upon consultation with Borrower, consultants, for Administrative Agent or any Lender), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, including its rights under this Section 10.02, or (B) in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans.
10.03    Indemnity.
(a)    Each Credit Party shall indemnify the Lead Arranger, Administrative Agent (and any sub‐agent thereof), each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing persons (each such person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, penalties, costs, reasonable and documented out-of-

pocket and invoiced expenses (including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and reasonable out of pocket expenses of (1) one counsel for all Indemnitees (plus one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest and after notice to Borrower, one additional counsel to each group of similarly affected parties)) of any kind or nature incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any party hereto or any third party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the financing contemplated hereby, including the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Credit Document, or any amendment, amendment and restatement, modification or waiver of the provisions hereof or thereof, or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the enforcement of any Credit Document, (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials on, at, under or from any Real Estate Asset or facility now or hereafter owned, leased or operated by Borrower or any Subsidiary at any time, or any Environmental Claim related in any way to Borrower or any Subsidiary, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Person, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (w) are determined in a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or its Related Parties, (x) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Credit Party against an Indemnitee or its Related Parties for material breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Credit Document (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision), (y) arise from disputes arising solely among Indemnitees, other than any claims against an Indemnitee in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as Administrative Agent or the Lead Arranger under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, that do not involve any act or omission by Borrower or any of its respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates or (z) are Taxes, other than Taxes that are losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses that arise from a non-Tax claim.
(b)    Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereby waives, any claim against any other party on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential (including, without limitation, any lost profits, business or anticipated savings) or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Credit Parties’ indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 10.03 to the extent set forth therein to the extent such special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages are included in any third party claim in connection with which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder.  No party hereto shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(c)    Payments.  All amounts due under this Section 10.03 shall be payable not later than thirty (30) Business Days after written demand (including detailed invoices) therefor.
(d)    Survival.  The obligations of the Credit Parties under this Section 10.03 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the termination of the Commitments, the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Credit Document and the termination of this Agreement. 
10.04    Set‐Off.  In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, each Lender and its Affiliates are hereby authorized by each Credit Party (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) at any time or from time to time subject to the consent of Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), without notice to any Credit Party or to any other Person (other than Administrative Agent), any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts (in whatever currency)) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party (in whatever currency) against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of any Credit Party (now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Credit Document) to such Lender under any Credit Document, including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected hereto or with any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not (a) such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (b) the principal of or the interest on the Loans or any other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 2 and although such obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured or (c) such obligation or liability is owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligation or such Indebtedness.  The rights of each Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section 10.04 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. Any Person exercising rights of set‐off under this Section 10.04 shall use its reasonable efforts to provide to the Borrower and Administrative Agent prompt notice of the exercise of such rights; provided, however, the failure of such Person to provide such notice shall not in any manner affect the validity of such action. 
10.05    Amendments and Waivers.
(a)    Requisite Lenders’ Consent.  Subject to Sections 10.05(b) and, 10.05(c) and 10.05(g), no amendment, modification, termination, supplement, change or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document (other than the Fee Letter, which shall be governed by its terms), or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless in writing signed by the Requisite Lenders (or by Administrative Agent with the consent of the Requisite Lenders) and the applicable Credit Party.
(b)    Affected Lenders’ Consent.  Without the written consent of each Lender that would be directly and adversely affected thereby, no amendment, modification, termination, or consent shall be effective if the effect thereof would:

(i)    extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 3.01 or of any Default, Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of any Commitment shall not constitute an extension or increase of any Commitment of any Lender);
(ii)    reduce or forgive the principal amount of, the rate of interest specified herein on, or the premiums (if any) on payments of, any Loan, any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Credit Document; provided, however, that only the consent of the Requisite Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay any amount at the Default Rate and such waiver shall not constitute a reduction of the rate of interest hereunder;
(iii)    postpone any date scheduled for any payment of interest, fees or principal (including final maturity) under Sections 2.07, 2.10 and 2.11, respectively; or
(iv)    change the application of proceeds among the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement or any applicable Credit Document, including the order of application of any prepayment of Loans from the application thereof as set forth in the definition of “Pro Rata Share” and the applicable provisions of Sections 2.05, 2.14, 2.16 or 8.02, respectively;
(v)    amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of this Section 10.05(b) or Section 10.05(c); or
(vi)    release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from the Guaranty, except, in each case, as expressly provided in the Credit Documents.
(c)    Other Consents.  No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of the Credit Documents, or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall:
(i)    change the voting percentages in the definition of “Requisite Lenders” or any other provision of any Credit Document (including this Section 10.05) specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder and thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, other than to increase such percentage or number or to grant any additional Lender (or group of Lenders) additional rights (for the avoidance of doubt, without restricting, reducing or otherwise modifying any existing rights of Lenders) to waive, amend or modify or make any such determination or grant any such consent; 
(ii)    amend or otherwise modify the definitions of “Anti-Corruption Laws”, “Anti-Terrorism Laws”, “OFAC”, “Sanctions” and “FCPA” or any other provision in any Credit Document (including Sections 4.26, 5.19(e) and 6.20) with respect to Anti-Corruption Laws and/or Anti-Terrorism Laws in a manner that is adverse to the Lenders, in each case, without the written consent of each Lender, other than (i) to grant additional rights or protections for the benefit of Lenders and (ii) if deemed necessary or advisable by the 

Administrative Agent, to reflect a change in law that occurs after the date hereof, so long as such amendment or modification does not adversely affect the Lenders; or
(iii)    unless in writing and signed by Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of, or any fees or other amounts payable to, Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Credit Document.
(d)    Technical Amendment.  If Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error (including, but not limited to, an incorrect cross-reference) or any ambiguity, error, omission, mistake or defect of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any exhibit, schedule or other attachment to any Credit Document), then Administrative Agent (acting in its sole discretion) and the Borrower or any other relevant Credit Party shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Credit Document.  Notification of such amendment shall be made by Administrative Agent to the Lenders promptly upon such amendment becoming effective.  Any such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Credit Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Requisite Lenders within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.
(e)    No Waiver.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether any Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at such time.  No notice or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.
(f)    Execution of Amendments, Etc.  Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender.  Any amendment, modification, waiver, supplement, termination or change shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.  No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.  Any amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 10.05 shall be binding upon each Lender at the time outstanding, each future Lender and, if signed by a Credit Party, on such Credit Party.
(g)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Section 6.13 and this Section 10.05(g) may not be amended, modified or waived without the consent of each Lender.
10.06    Successors and Assigns; Participations.
(a)    Generally.  This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors and assigns of Lenders.  Except as permitted by Section 6.09, no Credit Party’s rights or obligations hereunder nor any interest herein may be assigned or delegated by any Credit Party without the 

prior written consent of Administrative Agent and each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Credit Party shall be null and void) and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (c) of this Section 10.06, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (g) of this Section 10.06, (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest in accordance with paragraph (h) of this Section 10.06 or (iv) to an Affiliated Lender in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (i) of this Section 10.06.  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, Indemnitee Agent Parties under Section 9.06, Indemnitees under Section 10.03, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, Affiliates of each of the Agents and Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b)    Register.  The Credit Parties, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such Commitment or Loan shall be effective, in each case, unless and until a fully‐executed Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been delivered to and accepted by Administrative Agent and recorded in the Register as provided in Section 10.06(d).  Prior to such recordation, all amounts owed with respect to the applicable Commitment or Loan shall be owed to the Lender listed in the Register as the owner thereof, and any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Commitments or Loans.  This Section 10.06(b) shall be construed so that all Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and any related Treasury regulations (or any other relevant or successor provisions of the Internal Revenue Code or of such Treasury regulations). 
(c)    Right to Assign by Lenders.  Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer to any Person constituting an “Eligible Assignee” all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including all or a portion of its Commitment or Loans owing to it or other Obligations (provided, however, that 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 assigned); provided that:
(i)    except in the case of any assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or a Related Fund, each such assignment pursuant to this Section 10.06(c) shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $1,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by Borrower and Administrative Agent or as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the Commitments and Term Loans of the assigning Lender) (provided that contemporaneous assignments to or by two (2) or more affiliated Related Funds shall be aggregated for purposes of meeting such minimum transfer amount);
(ii)    the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement, together with (x) such forms, certificates 

or other evidence, if any, with respect to U.S. federal income tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.19(c) and (y) a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced by Administrative Agent in its discretion), and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and all documentation and other information with respect to the assignee that is required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the PATRIOT Act; 
(iii)    to the extent that the list of Disqualified Institutions (the “DQ List”) is made available to all Lenders or potential assignees, no assignment shall be made to a Disqualified Institution without the Borrower’s consent in writing (which consent may be withheld in its sole discretion); and
(iv)    notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.06(c) or any other provision of this Agreement, each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its Term Loans to Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a non‐pro rata basis, subject to the following limitations:
(A)    no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, or would immediately result therefrom;
(B)    Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall repurchase such Term Loans through either (x) conducting one or more Dutch Auctions or (y) open market purchases on a non-pro rata basis in an aggregate amount not to exceed $5,000,000;
(C)    with respect to all repurchases made by Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to this Section 10.06(c)(iv), (x) all assignees party to the relevant Assignment Agreement shall render customary “big-boy” disclaimer letters or any such disclaimers shall be incorporated into the terms of such Assignment Agreement, and (y) the assigning Lender and Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement, together with such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to U.S. federal income tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.19(c); 
(D)    following repurchase by Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to this Section 10.06(c)(iv), the Term Loans so repurchased shall, without further action by any Person, be deemed irrevocably prepaid, terminated, extinguished, cancelled and of no further force and effect, for all purposes of this Agreement and all other Credit Documents, including, but not limited to the following purposes: (1) the making of, or the application of, any payments to the Lenders under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (2) the making of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under this Agreement or any other Credit Document or (3) the determination of Requisite Lenders, or for any similar or related purpose, under this Agreement or any other Credit Document and Borrower and/or the Restricted Subsidiaries 

shall neither obtain nor have any rights as a Lender hereunder or under the other Credit Documents by virtue of such repurchase (without limiting the foregoing, in all events, such Term Loans may not be resold or otherwise assigned, or subject to any participation, or otherwise transferred by Borrower and/or any Restricted Subsidiary).  In connection with any Term Loans repurchased and cancelled pursuant to this Section 10.06(c)(iv), Administrative Agent is authorized to make appropriate entries in the Register to reflect any such cancellation; provided that upon such prepayment, termination, extinguishment and cancellation, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans shall be deemed reduced, as of such date, by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans so cancelled.
(d)    Notice of Assignment.  Upon its receipt and acceptance of a duly executed and completed Assignment Agreement, any forms, certificates or other evidence required by this Agreement in connection therewith, Administrative Agent shall record the information contained in such Assignment Agreement in the Register, shall give prompt notice thereof to Borrower and shall maintain a copy of such Assignment Agreement.
(e)    [Intentionally Reserved].
(f)    Effect of Assignment.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10.06, as of the “Effective Date” specified in the applicable Assignment Agreement:  (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder to the extent such rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement and shall thereafter be a party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof; (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that its rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned thereby pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, relinquish its rights (other than (i) as set forth in the immediately following proviso and (ii) any rights that survive the termination hereof under Section 10.08) and be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto; provided, anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of Sections 2.18, 2.19, 10.02, 10.03 and 10.04 with respect to matters arising prior to the effective date of such assignment); (iii) the Commitments shall be modified to reflect the Commitment of such assignee and any Commitment of such assigning Lender, if any; and (iv) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon Borrower shall issue and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender.
(g)    Participations.  Each Lender shall have the right at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Credit Party or Administrative Agent to sell one or more participations to any Person (other than a natural person, Borrower or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or any Disqualified Institution (provided that the DQ List is made available to all Lenders; provided, further, 

that any Lender may rely on a certificate from a Person that such Person is not a Disqualified Institution, and such Lender shall have no liability for selling a participation to such Person in reliance upon such certification) (each, a “Participant”) in all or any 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 (A) such participating Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (C) the Borrower, Administrative Agent 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.  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 the other Credit Documents and such Participant  shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder; 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 (x) described in subclauses (i) through (iv) of Section 10.05(b) that directly affects such Participant or any amendment, modification or waiver described in Section 10.05 that requires the consent of each Lender.  Each Credit Party agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18 and 2.19 (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.19(c) 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 clause (c) of this Section 10.06; provided (i) a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.18 or 2.19 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Borrower’s prior written consent or to the extent such greater payment is the result of a change in law that occurs after the date of such sale, and (ii) a Participant that would be a Non‐U.S. Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.19 unless Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Credit Parties, to comply with Section 2.19 as though it were a Lender.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.04 as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.16 as though it were a Lender.  In the event that any Lender sells participations in the Commitments and/or Loans (a “Registered Loan”), such Lender, as a non‐fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of all participants in the Registered Loans held by it and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of the Registered Loan which is the subject of the participation (the “Participant Register”).  A Registered Loan may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register.  Any participation of such Registered Loan may be effected only by the registration of such participation on the Participant Register.  No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of a Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Credit Document) to any Person except to the extent such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and, solely with respect to disclosure to the Borrower, to confirm a Participant is not a Disqualified Institution.  The entries in a Participant Register shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in a Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any 

notice to the contrary.  Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) for (i) maintaining a Participant Register and (ii) any Lender’s compliance with this Section 10.06, including any sale of participations to a Disqualified Institution in violation hereof by any Lender.
(h)    Certain Other Assignments.  In addition to any other assignment permitted pursuant to this Section 10.06, any Lender may assign, pledge and/or grant a security interest in, all or any portion of its Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to such Lender, and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender including any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank; provided, no Lender, as between the Credit Parties and such Lender, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge, and provided, further, in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank, pledgee or trustee be considered to be a “Lender” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.
(i)    Affiliated Lenders.
(i)    In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 10.06, each Lender may assign all or a portion of any of its Term Loans on a non-pro rata basis to any Person who, after giving effect to such assignment, would be an Affiliated Lender through either (a) a Dutch Auction or (b) open market purchases on a non‐pro rata basis; provided, that:
(A)    all parties to the relevant Affiliated Lender Assignment Agreement shall render customary “big-boy” disclaimer letters or any such disclaimers shall be incorporated into the terms of such Affiliated Lender Assignment Agreement;
(B)    the assigning Lender and the Affiliated Lender purchasing such Lender’s Loans shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an assignment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto (an “Affiliated Lender Assignment Agreement”), it being understood that each Affiliated Lender Assignment Agreement shall, among other things, provide for a power of attorney in favor of Administrative Agent to vote the claims in respect of the Loans held by such Affiliated Lender in an Insolvency Proceeding as provided in clause (iv) below; and
(C)    at all times, including at the time of such assignment and after giving effect to such assignment, the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans held by all Affiliated Lenders shall not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of all Term Loans outstanding under this Agreement and the number of Affiliated Lenders in the aggregate shall at no time exceed forty-nine percent (49%) of the aggregate number of all Lenders.  In the event that such limits in the immediately preceding sentence shall be exceeded, whether at the time of any assignment or at any time thereafter, the Borrower shall, within ten (10) Business Days, cause Affiliated Lenders to assign their Term Loans and Commitments in accordance with Section 10.06(c) or to make capital contributions or assignments of Term Loans and Commitments directly or indirectly to Borrower in accordance with clause (ii) 

below, in each case, in an amount such that after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of all Loans and Commitments held by the Affiliated Lenders does not exceed 25% of all Term Loans then outstanding or to the extent necessary to cause such limit not to be exceeded.
(ii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Affiliated Lender, in its capacity as a Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, may make one or more capital contributions or assignments of Term Loans that it acquires in accordance with this Section 10.06(ii) or otherwise directly or indirectly to Borrower solely in exchange for Permitted Stock Issuances of Borrower (or any Parent) upon written notice to Administrative Agent.  Immediately upon Borrower’s acquisition of Term Loans from an Affiliated Lender, such Term Loans and all rights and obligations as a Lender related thereto shall for all purposes (including under this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and otherwise) be deemed to be irrevocably prepaid, terminated, extinguished, cancelled and of no further force and effect and the Borrower shall neither obtain nor have any rights as a Lender hereunder or under the other Credit Documents by virtue of such capital contribution or assignment; provided that, upon such prepayment, termination, extinguishment and cancellation, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans shall be deemed reduced, as of the date of such contribution, by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans so contributed and cancelled, and each principal repayment installment with respect to the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11 shall be reduced on a pro rata basis by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so contributed and cancelled.
(iii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Affiliated Lender shall have any right to (A) attend (including by telephone) any meeting or discussions (or portion thereof) among Administrative Agent and/or any Lender to which representatives of the Credit Parties are not invited, (B) receive any information or material prepared by Administrative Agent or any Lender or any communication by or among Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders, except to the extent such information or materials have been made available to any Credit Party or any representative of any Credit Party, or (C) make or bring (or participate in, other than as a passive participant or recipient of its pro rata benefits of) any claim, in its capacity as a Lender, against any Agent or Lender with respect to any duties or obligations, or alleged duties or obligations, of such Agent or Lender under the Credit Documents.
(iv)    Notwithstanding anything in Section 10.05 or the definition of “Requisite Lenders” to the contrary, (A) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, modification or waiver, of, consent to, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, each Affiliated Lender will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders, unless such amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action shall (1) increase any Commitment of such Affiliated Lender, (2) extend the due date for any scheduled installment of principal of any Term Loan held by such Affiliated Lender, 

(3) extend the due date for interest under the Credit Documents owed to such Affiliated Lender, (4) reduce any amount owing to such Affiliated Lender under any Credit Document, or (5) deprive such Affiliated Lender of its Pro Rata Share of any principal and interest payments with respect to the Term Loan unless, in the case of clauses (2), (3) and (4), such extension or reduction does not adversely affect such Affiliated Lender in any material respect as compared to other Lenders, and (B) for purposes of voting on any plan of reorganization or plan of liquidation pursuant to any Debtor Relief Laws (a “Plan”), each Affiliated Lender hereby agrees (x) subject to clause (z) below, not to vote on such Plan, (y) if such Affiliated Lender does vote on such Plan notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (x), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such Plan in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws) and (z) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the Bankruptcy Court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (y), in each case, under this clause (iv)(B) unless such Plan adversely affects such Affiliated Lender more than other Lenders in any material respect (it being understood that such Affiliated Lender may vote in its discretion if a Plan proposes to treat Obligations held by such Affiliated Lender in a disproportionately adverse manner to such Affiliated Lender than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders), and (C) each Affiliated Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Administrative Agent (such appointment being coupled with an interest) as such Affiliated Lender’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Affiliated Lender and in the name of such Affiliated Lender (solely in respect of Term Loans therein and not in respect of any other claim or status such Affiliated Lender may otherwise have), from time to time in Administrative Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of this clause (iv), including to ensure that any vote of such Affiliated Lender on any Plan is withdrawn or otherwise not counted (other than any vote of such Affiliated Lender contemplated by clause (z)).  For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders and each Affiliated Lender agree and acknowledge that the provisions set forth in this clause (iv) constitute a “subordination agreement” as such term is contemplated by, and utilized in, Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, and, as such, would be enforceable for all purposes in any case where a Credit Party has filed for protection under the Bankruptcy Code.  
(j)    Disqualified Institutions.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no assignment or participation shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified Institution as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless the Borrower has consented to such assignment in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Institution for the purpose of such assignment or participation).  For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee that becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date, (x) such assignee shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender and (y) the execution by the Borrower of an 

Assignment Agreement with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee no longer being considered a Disqualified Institution.  Any assignment in violation of this paragraph (j) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this paragraph (j) shall apply.
(i)    If any assignment or participation is made to any Disqualified Institution without the Borrower’s prior written consent in violation of paragraph (j) above, or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Institution and Administrative Agent, (1) purchase or prepay such Term Loan by paying the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such Term Loans, in each case, plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder and/or (2) require such Disqualified Institution to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 10.06), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees at the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations of such Term Loans, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder.
(ii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Disqualified Institutions (i) will not (x) have the right to receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by Borrower, Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders and Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (ii) (x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, each Disqualified Institution will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Institutions consented to such matter, and (y) for purposes of voting on any plan of reorganization or similar plan, each Disqualified Institution party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on such plan, (2) if such Disqualified Institution does vote on such Plan notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such plan in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws) and (3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the applicable bankruptcy court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2).
(iii)    The Borrower hereby expressly authorizes Administrative Agent to (A) post the DQ List on the Platform, including that portion of the Platform that is designated for Public Siders and/or (B) provide the DQ List to each Lender or potential assignees.  

10.07    [Intentionally Reserved]
10.08    Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements.  All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Credit Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof.  Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due and payable).  Notwithstanding anything herein or implied by law to the contrary and without affecting any other survival language as set forth herein or in any other Credit Document, the provisions of Sections 2.18, 2.19, 10.02, 10.03, 10.04, 10.10, 10.14, 10.15, 10.16, 10.17, Section 9 and each other provision in any Credit Document which expressly so states shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
10.09    No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  No failure or delay on the part of any Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege.  The rights, powers and remedies given to each Agent and each Lender hereunder or under any other Credit Documents are cumulative and not exclusive and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Credit Documents.  Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.
10.10    Marshalling; Payments Set Aside.  Neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Credit Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.  To the extent that any Credit Party makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent or the Lenders (or to Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders), or Administrative Agent or Lenders enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any Debtor Relief Law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Administrative Agent, plus 

interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time in effect.  
10.11    Severability.  In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or under any Note or other Credit Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, (a) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions; provided, that the Lenders shall charge no fee in connection with any such amendment.  The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
10.12    Obligations Several; Actions in Concert.  The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder.  Nothing contained herein or in any other Credit Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity.  Anything in this Agreement or any other Credit Document to the contrary notwithstanding, each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender that no Lender shall take any action to protect or enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement, any Note or otherwise with respect to the Obligations without first obtaining the prior written consent of Administrative Agent or Requisite Lenders, as applicable, it being the intent of the Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement, any Note or otherwise with respect to the Obligations shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of Administrative Agent or Requisite Lenders, as applicable.
10.13    Headings.  Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein or in any other Credit Document are for convenience of reference only, shall not constitute a part of this Agreement or any other Credit Document and shall not affect the construction of or be given any substantive effect in interpreting this Agreement or any other Credit Document.
10.14    APPLICABLE LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE VALIDITY, INTERPRETATION, CONSTRUCTION, BREACH, ENFORCEMENT OR TERMINATION HEREOF AND THEREOF, AND WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW) THEREOF.
10.15    CONSENT TO JURISDICTION, SERVICE OF PROCESS, ETC.  BORROWER AND EACH OTHER CREDIT PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO IN ANY WAY CONNECTED, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING 

HERETO OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, OR ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS, IN EACH CASE, WHETHER OR NOT EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, SHALL BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY (BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN) OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF SUCH STATE.  BY EXECUTING AND DELIVERING THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY HERETO, FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, IRREVOCABLY (A) CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS AND AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT COMMENCE OR SUPPORT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANOTHER JURISDICTION; (B) WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF ANY CREDIT DOCUMENT OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED THERETO; (C) CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY CREDIT DOCUMENTS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES (OTHER THAN TELECOPIER) IN SECTION 10.01; AND (D) AGREES THAT THE AGENTS AND LENDERS RETAIN THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.  NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN OR IN ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT WILL PREVENT ANY LENDER OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT FROM BRINGING ANY ACTION TO ENFORCE ANY AWARD OR JUDGMENT OR EXERCISE ANY RIGHT UNDER THE CREDIT DOCUMENTS IN ANY OTHER FORUM IN WHICH JURISDICTION CAN BE ESTABLISHED.  WITHOUT LIMITING THE OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 10.15 AND IN ADDITION TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS PROVIDED FOR HEREIN, EACH CREDIT PARTY AGREES THAT PROCESS MAY BE SERVED ON IT THROUGH THE PROCESS AGENT SELECTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 3.1(y).  IN THE EVENT SUCH PROCESS AGENT NO LONGER ACCEPTS SERVICE OF PROCESS AS AFORESAID AND IF ANY CREDIT PARTY SHALL NOT MAINTAIN AN OFFICE IN NEW YORK, SUCH CREDIT PARTY SHALL PROMPTLY APPOINT AND MAINTAIN AN AGENT QUALIFIED TO ACT AS AN AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS WITH RESPECT TO THE COURTS SPECIFIED ABOVE AND ACCEPTABLE TO ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, AS EACH CREDIT PARTY’S AUTHORIZED DESIGNEE, APPOINTEE AND AGENT TO RECEIVE, ACCEPT AND ACKNOWLEDGE FOR AND ON ITS BEHALF, AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL LEGAL PROCESS, SUMMONS, NOTICES AND DOCUMENTS WHICH MAY BE SERVED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING.    
10.16    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION OR THE LENDER/BORROWER RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED.  THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL‐ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES

10.17    Confidentiality.  Each Agent and each Lender shall hold all non‐public information regarding each Credit Party and its Subsidiaries and their businesses obtained by such Lender confidential, it being understood and agreed by the Credit Parties that, in any event, each Agent and each Lender may make (i) disclosures of such information to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective Related Parties (and to other Persons authorized by a Lender or Agent to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 10.17) (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential), (ii) disclosures of such information reasonably required by any bona fide or potential assignee, transferee or Participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation of any Loans or any participations therein (provided, such contemplated assignees are not Disqualified Institutions (provided that the DQ List is made available to any contemplated assignees and Participants, who specifically requests a copy thereof) and are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 10.17 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 10.17), (iii) disclosure to any rating agency for the purpose of obtaining a credit rating applicable to any Credit Party or the credit facilities hereunder or to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization; provided, that, prior to any disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Credit Parties received by it from any of the Agents or any Lender, (iv) disclosure to any Lender’s financing sources, provided, that prior to any disclosure, such financing source is advised of and agrees to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 10.17 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 10.17, (v) disclosures required or requested by any Governmental Authority or self-regulatory authority (including the NAIC) having or asserting jurisdiction over such Person (including any Governmental Authority regulating any Lender or its Affiliates or upon the good faith determination by counsel that such information should be disclosed in light of ongoing 

oversight or review of any Lender or its Affiliates by any Governmental Authority or regulatory authority having jurisdiction over any Lender and its Affiliates), (vi) disclosure of such information pursuant to the order of any court or administrative agency or to the extent required by applicable requirements of law, rule or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, provided that Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, agrees that it will notify the Borrower as soon as practicable in the event of any such disclosure by such Person unless such notification is prohibited by law, rule or regulation and will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any such information so disclosed is accorded confidential treatment, (vii) disclosure of such information, to the extent such information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.17, (y) becomes available to Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than a Credit Party or (z) is independently developed by Administrative Agent or any Lender without the use of such information, (viii) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, but only to the extent in furtherance of such exercise or enforcement, (ix) disclosures of such information for purposes of establishing a “due diligence” defense and (x) disclosure of such information with the consent of the Borrower; provided, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each applicable Agent or Lender shall (A) make reasonable efforts to notify, to the extent practicable and legally permissible, Borrower of any request by any Governmental Authority, self-regulatory authority or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of such Lender by such Governmental Authority) for disclosure of any such non‐public information prior to disclosure of such information, and (B) reasonably cooperate with the Borrower in attempting to obtain, at the expense of the Borrower, any protective relief which the Borrower seeks with respect to the disclosure of such information (provided, however, that no Agent or Lender shall be required to initiate any litigation or proceeding or to take any other action that it believes in good faith would be disadvantageous or adverse in any respect to it).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or after the Closing Date, Administrative Agent may, at its own expense, issue news releases and publish “tombstone” advertisements and other announcements relating to this transaction in newspapers, trade journals and other appropriate media (which may include use of logos of one or more of the Credit Parties) (collectively, “Trade Announcements”).  No Credit Party shall issue any Trade Announcement except (i) disclosures required by applicable law, regulation, legal process or the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission or (ii) with the prior approval of Administrative Agent.
10.18    Usury Savings Clause.  Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged or agreed to be paid with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate.  If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect.  In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due 

hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws.  Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to Borrower.  In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest, throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.
10.19    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. 
10.20    Effectiveness; Integration.  Except as provided in Section 3.01, this Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto and receipt by Borrower and Administrative Agent of the counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.  The provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents set forth the entire agreement and understanding between the parties as to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, oral or written, and all other communications between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or .pdf (or similar file) by electronic mail shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
10.21    PATRIOT Act.  Each Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender that is not organized under the laws of the United States or a state thereof (and is not excepted from the certification requirement contained in Section 313 of the PATRIOT Act and the applicable regulations because it is both (a) an affiliate of a depository institution or foreign bank that maintains a physical presence in the United States or foreign country and (b) subject to supervision by a banking authority regulating such affiliated depository institution or foreign bank) shall deliver to Administrative Agent the certification, or, if applicable, recertification, certifying that such Lender is not a “shell” and certifying to other matters as required by Section 313 of the PATRIOT Act and the applicable regulations:  (i) within ten (10) days after the Closing Date, and (ii) at such other times as are required under the PATRIOT Act.
10.22    Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Credit Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any 

liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Credit Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:
(a)    the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and
(b)    the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:
(i)    a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
(ii)    a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Credit Document; or
(iii)    the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.
10.23    No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.  In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Credit Document), each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that:  (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Agents and the Lead Arranger are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Credit Parties and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents, the Lead Arranger and the Lenders, on the other hand, (B) each Credit Party has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate and is not relying on any Agent or Lender for advice with respect to such issues, and (C) each Credit Party is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Credit Documents; (ii) (A) Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger and each Lender each is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for each Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Agents, the Lead Arranger nor any Lender has any obligation to the Credit Parties or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents; and (iii) Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Credit Parties and their respective Affiliates, and neither Administrative Agent nor the Lead Arranger nor any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Credit Parties or any of their respective Affiliates.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Credit Party hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger and the Lenders with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

			Exhibit 4.18
		

		
			 
		

		
			DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
		

		
			The following description of BioPharmX Corporation capital stock is only a summary and does not purport to be complete. It is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the applicable provisions of Delaware law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated by-laws, which are subject to future amendment in accordance with the provisions thereof.
		

		
			 
		

		
			General
		

		
			BioPharmX is authorized to issue 460,000,000 shares of all classes of capital stock, of which 450,000,000 shares is common stock, $0.001 par value per share, and 10,000,000 shares are undesignated preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share. As of February 29, 2020, BioPharmX had 18,278,219 outstanding shares of common stock and no outstanding shares of preferred stock.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Common Stock
		

		
			Dividend Rights
		

		
			Subject to preferences that may apply to any shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, the holders of BioPharmX common stock are entitled to receive dividends out of funds legally available if the board of directors, in its discretion, determines to issue dividends and then only at the times and in the amounts that our board of directors may determine.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Voting Rights
		

		
			Holders of BioPharmX common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. BioPharmX has not provided for cumulative voting for any matter in its certificate of incorporation. Accordingly, pursuant to the certificate of incorporation, holders of a majority of the shares of our common stock will be able to elect all of BioPharmX’s directors.
		

		
			 
		

		
			No Preemptive or Similar Rights
		

		
			BioPharmX common stock is not entitled to preemptive rights, and is not subject to conversion, redemption or sinking fund provisions.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Right to Receive Liquidation Distributions
		

		
			Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the assets legally available for distribution to BioPharmX stockholders would be distributable ratably among the holders of the common stock and any participating preferred stock outstanding at that time, subject to prior satisfaction of all outstanding debt and liabilities and the preferential rights of and the payment of liquidation preferences, if any, on any outstanding shares of preferred stock.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Options
		

		
			As of February 29, 2020, BioPharmX had outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 1,206,286 shares of common stock, with a weighted-average exercise price of $3.98 per share.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Warrants
		

		
			As of February 29, 2020, BioPharmX had outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate 2,644,708 shares of common stock, with a weighted-average exercise price of $7.98 per share.
		

		
			

		 

		

			

		

			 

		

		

		
			 
		

		
			Registration Rights
		

		
			In connection with BioPharmX’s August 2016 private placement offering and issuance of convertible notes, the holders of common stock underlying such convertible notes (the ‘‘2016 Shares’’) were entitled to rights with respect to the registration of such 2016 Shares under the Exchange Act. In connection with BioPharmX’s September 2016 public offering of warrants, or the 2016 Warrants, to Roth Capital Partners and certain designees of Rodman & Renshaw, a unit of H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC, the holders of common stock underlying such warrants were entitled to rights with respect to the registration of such shares under the Securities Act. In January 2017, BioPharmX issued additional warrants, or the 2017 Warrants, to Rodman & Renshaw pursuant to a letter agreement. In September 2016, a shelf registration statement with respect to the 2016 Shares was filed and declared effective by the SEC. In August 2017, a shelf registration statement with respect to the 2017 Warrants was filed and declared effective by the SEC.
		

		
			We are required to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statements to remain continuously effective for a period that will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the date on which all such common stock has been disposed of pursuant to such registration statement, or (ii) the date on which all such common stock is sold in a transaction that is exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144 or a transaction in which such selling stockholders’ rights under the registration rights agreement are not assigned; provided, however, that such requirement shall not apply during any period in which all the shares of common stock then outstanding and held by selling stockholders may be sold under Rule 144 without restriction, including volume limitations or manner of sale restrictions.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Preferred Stock
		

		
			As of February 29, 2020, no shares of BioPharmX preferred stock are issued and outstanding and no such shares were subject to outstanding options or other rights to purchase or acquire. However, shares of preferred stock may be issued in one or more series from time to time by our board of directors, and the board of directors is expressly authorized to fix by resolution or resolutions the designations and the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, of the shares of each series of preferred stock. Subject to the determination of our board of directors, any shares of our preferred stock that may be issued in the future would generally have preferences over our common stock with respect to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Anti-Takeover Effect of Unissued Shares of Capital Stock
		

		
			Common Stock.  Shares of BioPharmX’s authorized and unissued common stock are available for future issuance without additional stockholder approval. While these additional shares are not designed to deter or prevent a change of control, under some circumstances BioPharmX could use the additional shares to create voting impediments or to frustrate persons seeking to effect a takeover or otherwise gain control by, for example, issuing those shares in private placements to purchasers who might side with our board of directors in opposing a hostile takeover bid.
		

		
			Preferred Stock. BioPharmX’s certificate of incorporation grants our board of directors the authority, without any further vote or action by its stockholders, to issue preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the number of shares constituting any such series and the preferences, limitations and relative rights, including dividend rights, dividend rate, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption price or prices, conversion rights and liquidation preferences of the shares constituting any series. The existence of authorized but unissued preferred stock could reduce BioPharmX’s attractiveness as a target for an unsolicited takeover bid since it could, for example, issue shares of preferred stock to parties who might oppose such a takeover bid or shares that contain terms the potential acquirer may find unattractive. This may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control, may discourage bids for the common stock at a premium over the market price of the common stock, and may adversely affect the market price 

		 

		

			

		

			 

		

of, and the voting and other rights of the holders of, common stock.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Anti-Takeover Provisions
		

		
			The provisions of Delaware law, BioPharmX’s certificate of incorporation and its bylaws could have the effect of delaying, deferring or discouraging another person from acquiring control of our company.
		

		
			These provisions, which are summarized below, may have the effect of discouraging takeover bids. They are also designed, in part, to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to negotiate first with our board of directors. BioPharmX believes that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with an unfriendly or unsolicited acquirer outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging a proposal to acquire BioPharmX because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Delaware Law
		

		
			BioPharmX is subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL regulating corporate takeovers. In general, Section 203 prohibits a publicly-held Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination with an interested stockholder for a period of three years following the date on which the person became an interested stockholder unless:
		

		
			• Prior to the date of the transaction, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;
		

		
			• The interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding, for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding, but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder, (1) shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers and (2) shares owned by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or
		

		
			• At or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the business combination is approved by the board of directors of the corporation and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66.67% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.
		

		
			Generally, a business combination includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction or series of transactions together resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. An interested stockholder is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns or, within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status, did own 15% or more of a corporation’s outstanding voting stock. BioPharmX expects the existence of this provision to have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions its board of directors does not approve in advance. BioPharmX also anticipates that Section 203 may also discourage attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of common stock held by stockholders.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaw Provisions
		

		
			BioPharmX’s certificate of incorporation and its bylaws include a number of provisions that could deter hostile takeovers or delay or prevent changes in control of BioPharmX, including the following:
		

		
			• Board of Directors Vacancies. The bylaws authorize the board of directors to fill vacant directorships, including newly created seats. This provision could prevent a stockholder from gaining control of our
		

		
			board of directors by filling vacancies with its own nominees. This makes it more difficult to change the composition of our board of directors but promotes continuity of management.
		

		
			• Special Meetings of Stockholders. The bylaws provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by a majority of the board of directors or an officer instructed by the directors to call  a special 

		 

		

			

		

			 

		

meeting, thus prohibiting a stockholder from calling a special meeting. This provision might delay the ability of stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or for stockholders controlling a  majority of our capital stock to take any action, including the removal of directors.
		

		
			• No Cumulative Voting. The DGCL provides that stockholders are not entitled to the right to cumulate votes in the election of directors unless a corporation’s certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. BioPharmX’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws do not provide for cumulative voting.
		

		
			• Amendment of Bylaw Provisions. Any of the above provisions in our bylaws may be amended or repealed by unanimous written consent of BioPharmX’s board of directors.
