1.5 Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on a Loan denominated in Dollars or any Optional Currency may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Regulators have signaled the need to use alternative benchmark reference rates for some of these interest rate benchmarks and, as a result, such interest rate benchmarks may cease to comply with applicable laws and regulations, may be permanently discontinued, and/or the basis on which they are calculated may change. The London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. On March 5, 2021, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) publicly announced that immediately after December 31, 2021, publication of all seven euro LIBOR settings, all seven Swiss Franc LIBOR settings, the spot next, 1-week, 2-month and 12-month Japanese Yen LIBOR settings, the overnight, 1-week, 2-month and 12-month British Pound Sterling LIBOR settings, and the 1-week and 2-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; immediately after June 30, 2023, publication of the overnight and 12-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; immediately after December 31, 2021, the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month Japanese Yen LIBOR settings and the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month British Pound Sterling LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to consultation by the FCA, be provided on a changed methodology (or “synthetic”) basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored; and immediately after June 30, 2023, the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to the FCA’s consideration of the case, be provided on a synthetic basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored. There is no assurance that dates announced by the FCA will not change or that the administrator of LIBOR and/or regulators will not take further action that could impact the availability, composition, or characteristics of LIBOR or the currencies and/or tenors for which LIBOR is published. Each party to this agreement should consult its own advisors to stay informed of any such developments. Public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of LIBOR. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, Section 2.18(b) and (c) provide the mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Company, pursuant to Section 2.18(e), of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurocurrency Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to LIBOR or other rates in the definition of “Eurocurrency Base Rate” (or “EURIBOR Rate”, or “TIBOR Rate”, as applicable) or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, (including, without limitation, (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 2.18(b) or (c), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 2.18(d)), including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the Eurocurrency Rate (or EURIBOR Rate, or TIBOR Rate, as applicable) or have the same volume or liquidity as did LIBOR (or the euro interbank offered rate, as applicable) prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.

1.6 Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Capital Stock at such time.

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Company and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower and the relevant Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective, (B) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing, (C) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing in an Optional Currency, then such request shall be ineffective and (D) any request by the Borrower for a Eurocurrency Competitive Borrowing shall be ineffective; provided that (x) if the circumstances giving rise to such notice do not affect all the Lenders, then requests by the Borrower for Eurocurrency Competitive Borrowings may be made to Lenders that are not affected thereby and (y) if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then all other Types of Borrowings shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any Eurocurrency Loan in any Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.18(a) with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Eurocurrency Loan, then until the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) if such Eurocurrency Loan is denominated in dollars, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Loan shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in dollars on such day or (ii) if such Eurocurrency Loan is denominated in any Currency (other than Dollars), then such Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by the Borrower on such day or (B) solely for the purpose of calculating the interest rate applicable to such Eurocurrency Loan, such Eurocurrency Loan denominated in any Optional Currency shall be deemed to be a Eurocurrency Loan denominated in Dollars and shall accrue interest at the same interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars at such time.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, with respect to a Loan denominated in Dollars, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, this

clause (c) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Company a Term SOFR Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver any Term SOFR Notice after the occurrence of a Term SOFR Transition Event, and may do so in its sole discretion.

(d) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(e) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (f) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.18, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.18.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR, Eurocurrency Base Rate, EURIBOR Rate or TIBOR Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(g) Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Eurocurrency Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, either (x) the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any request for a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans or (y) any Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in an Optional Currency shall be ineffective. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR. Furthermore, if any Eurocurrency Loan in any Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Eurocurrency Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement for such Optional Currency is

implemented pursuant to this Section 2.18, (i) if such Eurocurrency Loan is denominated in Dollars, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Loan shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in Dollars on such day or (ii) if such Eurocurrency Loan is denominated in any Currency (other than Dollars), then such Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by the Borrower on such day or (B) solely for the purpose of calculating the interest rate applicable to such Eurocurrency Loan, such Eurocurrency Loan denominated in any Currency other than Dollars shall be deemed to be a Eurocurrency Loan denominated in Dollars and shall accrue interest at the same interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars at such time.

2.19 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments; Evidence of Debt. (a) Each borrowing of Loans under any Facility by the Company or any Subsidiary Borrower from the Lenders under such Facility, each payment by the Company or any Subsidiary Borrower on account of any Facility Fee or any fee payable pursuant to the L/C Fee Letter, and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders under any Facility shall be made pro rata according to the respective Percentages under such Facility, of the relevant Lenders in such Facility except to the extent required or permitted pursuant to Sections 2.9, 2.11, 2.24, 2.25, 2.27, 2.29 and 2.30 and except, in the case of the L/C Tranche Facility, as otherwise provided in the L/C Fee Letter.

(b) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Company or any Subsidiary Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Loans under any Facility shall be made pro rata to the Lenders under such Facility according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans under such Facility then held by the Lenders under such Facility except to the extent required or permitted pursuant to Sections 2.9, 2.11, 2.24, 2.25, 2.27, 2.29 and 2.30. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8, each such payment shall be paid in the relevant Currency in which such Loan was made.

(c) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Company or any Subsidiary Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 3:00 P.M., Local Time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Lenders, at the Funding Office, in the applicable Currency and in immediately available funds, except that payment of fronting fees owing to any Issuing Lender shall be made as provided in the L/C Fee Letter. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the applicable Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, except as otherwise provided with respect to the payment of interest at the expiration of an Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Loan as provided in the proviso to the definition of Interest Period. If any payment on a Eurocurrency Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company or any Subsidiary Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required

57

##### Table of Contents

time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon, (A) in the case of amounts denominated in Dollars, at a rate up to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (B) in the case of amounts denominated in any other Currency, at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount, in each case for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon (A) in the case of amounts denominated in Dollars, at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility and (B) in the case of amounts denominated in any other Currency, at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount, on demand, from the Company or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower.

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Company or relevant Subsidiary Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by the Company or such Subsidiary Borrower under any Facility that the Company or such Subsidiary Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Company or such Subsidiary Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders under such Facility their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Company or relevant Subsidiary Borrower within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each such Lender to which any amount was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, (A) in the case of amounts denominated in Dollars, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate and (B) in the case of amounts denominated in other Currencies, such amount with interest thereon at a rate per annum reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Company or any Subsidiary Borrower.

(f) Unless all of the Obligations have become due and payable (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), payments under the Guarantee shall be applied to the Obligations in such order of application as the Company may from time to time specify, subject however, to the provisions of Sections 2.19(a) and (b) (applied as if such payments were made by the Company) and Section 10.7.

(g) Each of the Company and the Subsidiary Borrowers agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Company or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note of the Company and/or such Subsidiary Borrower evidencing the Loans of such Lender, substantially in the forms of Exhibit K (a “Note”), with appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount.

2.20 Requirements of Law. Except with respect to Competitive Loans to which this Section 2.20 shall not apply:

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(I) impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurocurrency Rate; or

(II) impose on such Lender or any London interbank market any other condition; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or its affiliate, as the case may be), by an amount that the Administrative Agent or such Lender reasonably deems material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurocurrency Loans, issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Company and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall pay the Administrative Agent or such Lender, within 15 Business Days of receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender as described below, any additional amounts necessary to compensate the Administrative Agent or such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable (it being understood that the provisions set forth in this Section 2.20(a) are not intended to derogate from the Company’s rights provided in Section 2.23 and Section 2.24). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Company or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled (including a reasonably detailed calculation of such amounts).

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or an entity controlling such Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such entity could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such entity’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, within 15 Business Days after submission by such Lender to the Company and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor (together with a reasonably detailed description and calculation of such amounts), the Company and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such entity for such reduction (it being understood that the provisions set forth in this Section 2.20(b) are not intended to derogate from the Company’s rights provided in Sections 2.23 and 2.24).

(c) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.20 submitted by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the Company and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be prima facie evidence of the amount owing in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be entitled to request any payment or amount under this Section 2.20 unless the Administrative Agent or such Lender is generally demanding payment (and certifies to the Company that it is generally demanding payment) under comparable provisions of its agreements with similarly situated borrowers of similar credit quality (provided, that the Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to verify any such request of a Lender) and (ii) the Company and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall not be required to compensate the Administrative Agent or a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.20 for any amounts incurred more than 90 days prior to the date that the Administrative Agent or such Lender notifies the Company or relevant Subsidiary Borrower of the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such 90 day period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect, but not more than 180 days prior to the date that such notice was received by the Company and the relevant Subsidiary Borrower, if any. The obligations of the Company and the Subsidiary Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.20 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all interest thereon and fees payable hereunder.

2.21 Taxes. (a) All payments made by or on behalf of any Loan Party under this Agreement (other than in respect of any Competitive Loans as to which this Section 2.21(a) shall not apply) or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future Taxes, excluding (i) Taxes imposed on or measured by income or profits (including franchise taxes imposed in lieu of or in addition to net income Taxes) imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of a present or former connection between the Administrative Agent or such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such Tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from the Administrative Agent or such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document), (ii) any branch profit Taxes imposed by the United States or any similar Tax imposed by any other Governmental Authority in a jurisdiction described in clause (i) above and (iii) any Taxes imposed by reason of FATCA (any such non-excluded Taxes, “Non-Excluded Taxes”). If any Taxes are required to be deducted or withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document, as determined in good faith by the applicable withholding agent or by the relevant Borrower, to the extent there is no withholding agent, the applicable withholding agent or the relevant Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings and shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable laws. In the case of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes, the amounts so payable by the applicable Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes) an amount equal to the sum which would have been received had no such deduction or withholding been made, provided, however, that no Loan Party shall be required to increase any such amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes except to the extent that any change in applicable law, treaty or governmental rule or regulation after the time such Lender becomes a party to this agreement (a “Change in Tax Law”), shall result in an increase in the rate of any deduction, withholding or payment from that in effect at the time such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (or designates a new Applicable Lending Office), except to the extent that such Lender (or its assignor, if any) was entitled, at the time of its designation of a new Applicable Lending Office (or assignment), to receive additional amounts from such Loan Party with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to this Section 2.21. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary Borrower shall be required to increase any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes that are attributable to such Person’s failure to comply with the requirements of paragraph (d) or (e) of this Section 2.21 except as such failure relates to a Change in Tax Law rendering such Person legally unable to comply.

(b) In addition, each Loan Party shall pay any Other Taxes over to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by any Loan Party, as promptly as practicable thereafter such Loan Party shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the relevant Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by such Loan Party (or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender) showing payment thereof. If (i) any Loan Party fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority, (ii) any Loan Party fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence or (iii) any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are imposed directly upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender, the Loan Parties shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for such amount and any incremental taxes, interest, additions to tax, expenses or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), or any such direct imposition in the case of clause (iii). The indemnification payment under this Section 2.21 shall be made within 30 days after the date the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as the case may be) makes a written demand therefor (together with a reasonably detailed calculation of such amounts).

(d) Each Lender (or Transferee) (i) that is not a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Company, any relevant Domestic Subsidiary Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) two copies of IRS Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E, Form W-8ECI or Form W-8IMY (together with any applicable underlying IRS forms), or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit I-1, Exhibit I-2, Exhibit I-3 or Exhibit I-4, as applicable, and the applicable IRS Form W-8, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by the Company under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Company, any relevant Domestic Subsidiary Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) two properly completed and duly executed copies of IRS Form W-9. Such forms shall be delivered by each Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation). Thereafter, each Lender shall, to the extent it is legally able to do so, deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Lender at any other time prescribed by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the Company or any relevant Subsidiary Borrower. If any Commitment is reallocated in accordance with Section 2.11(b), then the relevant Lender (to whom such Commitment has been reallocated) shall deliver, on the effective date of such reallocation, all such forms that it is legally able to deliver. Each Lender shall deliver to the Company, any relevant Domestic Subsidiary Borrower and the Administrative Agent, any other form prescribed by applicable requirements of U.S. federal income tax law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable requirements of law to permit the Company, any relevant Domestic Subsidiary Borrower and the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. Each Lender shall promptly notify the Company and any relevant Domestic Subsidiary Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Company (and any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). In addition, if a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender fails to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Sections 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such 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 Section 2.21(d), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.21, a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 2.21 (other than clause (ii) of the first sentence of this paragraph) that such Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(e) With respect to each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower a Lender or Transferee shall, to the extent it is legally able to do so, deliver to the Company (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prior to the first date any payment is due to be paid from or by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to it hereunder, any form or certificate required in order that any payment by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to such Lender may be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Non-Excluded Taxes imposed on such payment under the laws of the jurisdiction under which such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is incorporated or organized. If any Commitment is reallocated in accordance with Section 2.11(c) or 2.11(d), then the relevant Lender (to whom such Commitment has been reallocated) shall deliver on the effective date of such reallocation, all such forms that it is legally able to deliver, including any form claiming a reduced rate of non-U.S. withholding tax on payments made by the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In the event of a Change in Tax Law after the date such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower makes the first payment, a Lender or Transferee shall deliver all such required forms that it is legally able to deliver, including any form claiming a reduced rate of non-U.S. withholding tax on payments by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(f) If the Administrative Agent, any Transferee or any Lender determines, in its sole good faith discretion, that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Loan Party or with respect to which a Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.21, it shall pay over such refund to such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.21 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Transferee or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that such Loan Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Transferee or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Transferee or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent, such Transferee or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to (i) interfere with the right of the Administrative Agent, any Transferee or any Lender to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it sees fit, (ii) obligate the Administrative Agent, any Transferee or any Lender to claim any tax refund, (iii) require the Administrative Agent, any Transferee or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes or any computation in respect thereof which it deems in its sole discretion to be confidential) to any Loan Party or any other Person, or (iv) require the Administrative Agent, any Transferee or any Lender to do anything that would in its sole discretion prejudice its ability to benefit from any other refunds, credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled.

(g) Each Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Company if it is required to do so under Section 2.21(a) or 10.5 and without limiting the obligation of the Company under Section 2.21(a) or 10.5 to do so) for the full amount of any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings or similar charges imposed by any Governmental Authority that are attributable to such Lender and that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent, together with all interest, penalties, reasonable costs and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, as determined by the Administrative Agent, in good faith. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

2.22 Indemnity. The Company and each relevant Subsidiary Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any actual loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Company or relevant Subsidiary Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans after the Company or such Subsidiary Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Company or relevant Subsidiary Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurocurrency Loans after the Company or such Subsidiary Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans (or the conversion of a Eurocurrency Loan into a Loan of a different Type) on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 2.24. Such indemnification may include an amount up to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank Eurocurrency market. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.22 submitted to the Company and the relevant Subsidiary Borrower, if any, by any Lender (together with a reasonably detailed calculation of such amounts) shall be prima facie evidence thereof and shall be payable within 30 days of receipt of any such notice.

In the event that an L/C Tranche Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Company and each affected Issuing Lender stating that such L/C Tranche Lender has become a Defaulting Lender. In the event that each of the Administrative Agent, the Company, each relevant Subsidiary Borrower and each affected Issuing Lender agrees that such Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Defaulting Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the L/C Obligations of the L/C Tranche Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Tranche Commitments and, on such date, such L/C Tranche Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans and/or participations in the L/C Obligations of the other L/C Tranche Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such L/C Tranche Lender to hold such L/C Tranche Loans and participations in the L/C Obligations in accordance with its L/C Tranche Percentage of the L/C Tranche Commitments.

The designation of Commitments to any New Local Facility shall be made pursuant to an amendment (each, a “Local Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and each New Local Facility Lender.

2.28 Incremental Commitments/Facilities.

(b) Each Incremental Lender that is a signatory to an Incremental Loan Activation Notice severally agrees, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to make revolving credit loans (each, an “Incremental Loan”) to the Company and/or the applicable Subsidiary Borrowers from time to time on or after the Incremental Facility Closing Date or Commitment Increase Date specified in such Incremental Loan Activation Notice in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time up to but not exceeding the amount of the Incremental Commitment of such Incremental Lender specified in such Incremental Loan Activation Notice, subject to the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Incremental Loan Activation Notice. Nothing in this Section 2.28 shall be construed to obligate any Lender to execute an Incremental Loan Activation Notice.

(c) On any Commitment Increase Date with respect to any Facility, in the event any Loans under such Facility are then outstanding, (i) each relevant Incremental Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent such amounts in immediately available funds as the Administrative Agent shall determine are necessary in order to cause, after giving effect to such increased Commitments and the application of such amounts to prepay Loans under such Facility of other relevant Lenders, the Loans under such Facility to be held ratably by all Lenders with Commitments in such Facility in accordance with such Commitments after giving effect to such increase, (ii) the Company and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall be deemed to have prepaid and reborrowed all outstanding Loans under this Agreement and (iii) the Company and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall pay to the relevant Lenders the amounts, if any, payable under Section 2.22 as a result of such prepayment.

2.29 Termination Date Extension. (a) The Company may at any time and from time to time, by notice to the Administrative Agent, propose an extension of the Termination Date, which proposal may include a proposal to change the Applicable Margins (including any provision of the Applicable Pricing Grid) for the Lenders as may be specified in such proposal. Upon receipt of any such proposal the Administrative Agent, shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. Each Lender shall respond to such proposal in writing within 30 calendar days after the date of such proposal and any failure of a Lender to respond within such period shall be deemed to be a rejection of such proposal. If any Lender consents to such proposal (each such consenting Lender, an “Extending Lender”), the Termination Date applicable to each Extending Lender shall be extended to the date specified in the Company’s extension proposal and the Applicable Margin with respect to each such Extending Lender shall be adjusted in the manner specified in such proposal, if any, and each Non-Extending Lender will be treated as provided in Section 2.29(b).

(b) If any Lender does not consent to any extension request that becomes effective pursuant to Section 2.29(a) (each such Lender, a “Non-Extending Lender”), then the Termination Date for such Non-Extending Lender shall remain unchanged from that applicable prior to the extension and the Commitments of each Non-Extending Lender and the existing Applicable Margins shall, subject to the terms of Section 2.18, continue in full force and effect.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 10.1(a), the Company and the Administrative Agent (and the Extending Lenders) shall be entitled to enter into any amendments to this Agreement that the Administrative Agent believes are necessary or appropriate to reflect, or to provide for the integration of, any extension of the Termination Date or change in Applicable Margins pursuant to this Section 2.29 without the consent of any Non-Extending Lender.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the L/C Tranche Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to issue (or cause its Applicable Lending Office to issue) letters of credit and bank guarantees (each a “Letter of Credit”) under the L/C Tranche Facility for the account of a Loan Party or a Subsidiary of a Loan Party (the “Applicable Account Party”) on any Business Day during the Commitment Period of such Issuing Lender in such form as may be reasonable and customary for the purpose thereof; provided, that (i) no Applicable Account Party shall request, and no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue (or cause its Applicable Lending Office to issue), any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance (and to any concurrent funding or prepayment of a Loan and to the application of proceeds thereof and to any concurrent expiration or termination or amendment or modification of any previously issued Letter of Credit), (A) the Dollar Equivalent of the then Outstanding Amount of all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender (or any Applicable Lending Office thereof) would exceed such Issuing Lender’s L/C Issuing Commitment then in effect, (B) the Total L/C Tranche Extensions of Credit

would exceed the Total L/C Tranche Commitment then in effect or (C) the sum of (x) 105% of the Dollar Equivalent of Letters of Credit denominated in Optional Currencies plus (y) the then Outstanding Amount of the Total L/C Tranche Extensions of Credit other than Letters of Credit denominated in Optional Currencies would exceed the Total L/C Tranche Commitments then in effect and (ii) the Company shall be jointly and severally liable with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for the account of an Applicable Account Party (other than the Company). Each Letter of Credit shall (x) be denominated in Dollars or any Optional Currency; provided that Bank of America, N.A. shall not be required to issue any Letters of Credit in any Optional Currency without its prior written consent and (y) expire no later than the earlier of (A) the date that is one year after the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit and (B) five Business Days prior to the Termination Date of such Issuing Lender then in effect; provided, that any Letter of Credit with a one-year or shorter tenor may (1) provide for the subsequent or successive renewal or automatic renewal thereof for additional one-year or shorter periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in foregoing clause (B), unless and to the extent that such Letter of Credit is Collateralized for the period following such date at 100% of the undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letter of Credit if requested by the relevant Issuing Lender) or (2) continue past such date referred to in the foregoing clause (B) to the extent that such Letter of Credit is Collateralized for the period following such date at 100% of the undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letter of Credit if requested by the relevant Issuing Lender; provided, further that, upon request of the Company and with the consent of the relevant Issuing Lender, a Letter of Credit may have a tenor of longer than one year so long as such Letter of Credit does not extend beyond the date referred to in clause (B) above (or, to the extent such Letter of Credit does extend beyond such date, it is in compliance with the parenthetical in clause (1) above). Any such Collateralization of a Letter of Credit provided by a Loan Party or Applicable Account Party, as applicable, with respect to a Letter of Credit, together with accrued interest or earnings thereon, shall be terminated and (to the extent not applied to satisfy L/C Obligations) released to such Loan Party or Applicable Account Party, as applicable, as soon as practicable after the expiration or other termination of such Letter of Credit and the reimbursement of any amount drawn thereunder; provided, that, so long as such 100% margin is maintained, the accrued interest or earnings on such Collateralization shall be released to the Loan Party or Applicable Account Party, as applicable, at any time and from time to time upon its request therefor.

(b) No Issuing Lender shall at any time be obligated to issue (or cause its Applicable Lending Office to issue) any Letter of Credit if such issuance would conflict with, or cause such Issuing Lender (or any Applicable Lending Office thereof) or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law.

(c) If the Termination Date has been extended (pursuant to Section 2.29 or otherwise) and any L/C Tranche Lenders are Non-Consenting Lenders with respect thereto, and any Letter of Credit remains outstanding on the Termination Date applicable to such Non-Extending Lenders, then (i) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time, all or any part of the L/C Obligations of such Non-Extending Lenders shall be reallocated among the L/C Tranche Lenders that are Extending Lenders with respect thereto in accordance with their L/C Tranche Percentages (calculated after giving effect to the termination of the Commitments of the Non-Extending Lenders on such Termination Date) but only to the extent the sum of all Extending Lenders’ L/C Tranche Extensions of Credit plus such L/C Obligations does not exceed the total of all L/C Tranche Lenders that are Extending Lenders’ L/C Tranche Commitments, (ii) if any reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Company or any applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall, at any time and from time to time following notice by the Administrative Agent, (x) prepay L/C Tranche Loans in an amount sufficient to permit such reallocation of the L/C Obligations of the Non-Extending Lenders in full or (y) Collateralize for the benefit of each Issuing Lender, the Borrowers’ obligations corresponding to such Non-Extending Lenders’ L/C Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) for so long as such L/C Obligations are outstanding (it being expressly understood and agreed that all accrued interest on such Collateralization shall be for the account of the Company or such applicable Subsidiary Borrower and shall be paid to the Company or such Subsidiary

Borrower at any time and from time to time upon its request therefor; provided, that no Event of Default shall have then occurred and be continuing), and (iii) if all or any portion of such Non-Extending Lenders’ L/C Obligations is neither reallocated nor Collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the applicable Issuing Lender or any other L/C Tranche Lender hereunder, all fees payable pursuant to the L/C Fee Letter with respect to such Non-Extending Lenders’ L/C Obligations shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Lender until and to the extent that such L/C Obligations are so reallocated and/or Collateralized.

3.2 Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit. (a) Any Applicable Account Party, with (in the case of any such Applicable Account Party other than the Company) the written consent of the Company (substantially in the form of Exhibit M hereto or as the Company may otherwise specify from time to time), may from time to time request that any Issuing Lender issue (or cause its Applicable Lending Office to issue) a Letter of Credit by delivering to such Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.2 an Application therefor, completed to the reasonable satisfaction of such Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as the Issuing Lender may reasonably request consistent with its customary business practices for comparable transactions in the applicable jurisdiction (it being expressly understood and agreed by each Issuing Lender that the terms and provisions of each such Application shall be consistent with the terms and provisions of this Agreement). Upon receipt of any Application, the relevant Issuing Lender will process such Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue (or cause its Applicable Lending Office to issue) the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall any Issuing Lender be required to issue (or cause its Applicable Lending Office to issue) any Letter of Credit earlier than three Business Days after its receipt of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by the relevant Issuing Lender and the Applicable Account Party. The relevant Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Applicable Account Party promptly following the issuance thereof. The relevant Issuing Lender shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent notice of the issuance of each Letter of Credit (including the amount and currency thereof). No Issuing Lender shall issue (or cause its Applicable Lending Office to issue) any Letter of Credit during any period commencing on the first Business Day after it receives written notice from the Administrative Agent that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Section 5.2 shall not on such date be satisfied or waived, and ending when the Administrative Agent provides written notice to the effect that such conditions are satisfied or waived. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Issuing Lenders upon becoming aware that such conditions in Section 5.2 are thereafter satisfied or waived. The Issuing Lenders shall not otherwise be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.2 have been satisfied or waived in connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit.

(b) The Issuing Lender shall not (and shall not permit any Applicable Lending Office thereof to) (i) amend or cancel any Letter of Credit without the prior written consent of the Company or the Applicable Account Party, (ii) waive presentation of any Letter of Credit or waive any discrepancies in documents presented to effect a draw on a Letter of Credit, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Company or the Applicable Account Party, if and to the extent such waiver materially and adversely affects the Company or such Applicable Account Party, or (iii) replace any lost, mutilated or destroyed Letter of Credit, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Company or the Applicable Account Party. If requested by an Applicable Account Party or the Company, the Issuing Lender shall furnish a draft of such Letter of Credit (or any amendment thereto) to the Applicable Account Party and the Company prior to the issuance thereof to allow the Applicable Account Party and the Company to review such draft for accuracy and to provide any corrections if necessary.

3.3 Fees and Other Charges. The Company shall pay (or cause to be paid) the fees payable to the L/C Tranche Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, as applicable, set forth in the L/C Fee Letter. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of this Agreement or the L/C Fee Letter, (x) at the option of the Company and upon notice to the Administrative Agent, all fees payable to any Issuing Lender may, with the consent of such Issuing Lender, be paid in Dollars (regardless of the currency of such Letter of Credit) and (y) unless (i) the Company or such Applicable Account Party gives notice to the Administrative Agent that it has paid such fees by 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on the date required pursuant to the L/C Fee Letter or notifies the Administrative Agent that it does not wish to have such obligation paid with the proceeds of an ABR Loan by such time, or (ii) the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge that the conditions precedent to an ABR Loan to be made on such date which are contained in Section 5.2 have not been satisfied or waived, the Company or such Applicable Account Party shall be deemed to have requested that the L/C Tranche Lenders make an ABR Loan on the date such fees are due pursuant to the terms of the L/C Fee Letter in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of the related obligation, and such ABR Loan shall be made on such date. If an ABR Loan is deemed to have been requested as aforesaid, such obligation shall be paid with the proceeds of such Loan and no Default or Event of Default shall exist or be continuing in respect thereof. Notwithstanding the last sentence of Section 2.8, the proceeds of such ABR Loan shall be made available to the relevant Issuing Lender or L/C Tranche Lenders, as applicable (and not to the Company or such Applicable Account Party) to the account specified by such Issuing Lender or L/C Tranche Lenders, as applicable, in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent, and, to the extent any such fees are owing to an Issuing Lender or the L/C Tranche Lenders, the Issuing Lender or each of the L/C Tranche Lenders, as applicable, may credit its L/C Tranche Percentage of such ABR Loan to the relevant obligation in lieu of funding such amount to the Administrative Agent.

3.4 L/C Participations. (a) Each Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce such Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from such Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions set forth below, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s L/C Tranche Percentage in such Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit issued, and the amount of each draft or demand paid, by such Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant agrees with each Issuing Lender that, if a draft or demand is paid under any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender for which the Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Company or other applicant in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender upon demand at such Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s L/C Tranche Percentage of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such draft or demand, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed (calculated, in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in an Optional Currency, as of the Reimbursement Date therefor); provided, that in no event shall an L/C Participant be obligated to fund an amount that would cause such L/C Participant’s Total L/C Tranche Extensions of Credit to exceed such L/C Participant’s L/C Tranche Commitment. Subject to the foregoing, each L/C Participant’s obligation to pay such amount shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such L/C Participant may have against any Issuing Lender, the Company, the Applicable Account Party or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Loan Party, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Company, any other Loan Party or any other L/C Participant or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(b) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to any Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit is paid to any Issuing Lender within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to any Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the relevant Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not made available to the relevant Issuing Lender by such L/C Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans. A certificate of the relevant Issuing Lender submitted to any L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 3.4 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(c) Whenever, at any time after any Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(a), such Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Company, the Applicable Account Party or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by such Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, such Issuing Lender will distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by such Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by such Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to such Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Lender to it.

3.5 Reimbursement Obligation of the Company and the Applicable Account Party. If any draft or demand is paid under any Letter of Credit issued for the account of an Applicable Account Party, the Company or such Applicable Account Party, on a joint and several basis, shall reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount of the draft or demand so paid, not later than 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the second Business Day immediately following the day that the Company receives notice of payment of such draft or demand (or if notice of such payment is received after 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on a Business Day, on the third Business Day immediately following such date of receipt) (such date, the “Reimbursement Date”). Each such payment shall be made to the relevant Issuing Lender in the currency in which such Letter of Credit is denominated and in immediately available funds; provided, that, in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in an Optional Currency, if such payment, or obligation to make such payment, in an Optional Currency would subject the Administrative Agent, the relevant Issuing Lender or any L/C Tranche Lender to any stamp duty, ad valorem charge or any similar Tax that would not be payable if such payment were paid or required to be paid in Dollars, the Company or such Applicable Account Party shall, at its option, (A) pay the amount of such Tax to the Administrative Agent, the relevant Issuing Lender or the relevant L/C Tranche Lender or (B) pay the Dollar Equivalent of such draft or demand (calculated as of the Reimbursement Date); provided, further, that if such payment is not made on the applicable Reimbursement Date the obligation to pay such draft or demand shall be permanently converted into an obligation to pay the Dollar Equivalent amount of such draft or demand (calculated as of such Reimbursement Date). Interest shall be payable on any such amounts from the Reimbursement Date until payment in full at the rate set forth in Section 2.16(c). Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of this Agreement, unless (x) the Company or such Applicable Account Party gives notice to the Administrative Agent that it has paid its Reimbursement Obligation by 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Reimbursement Date or notifies the Administrative Agent that it does not wish to have such Reimbursement Obligation paid with the proceeds of an ABR Loan by such time, or (y) the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge that the conditions precedent to an ABR Loan to be made on such Reimbursement Date which are contained in Section 5.2 have not been satisfied or waived, the Company or such Applicable Account Party shall be deemed to have requested that the L/C Tranche Lenders make an ABR Loan on such Reimbursement Date in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of the related Reimbursement

76

Obligation, and such ABR Loan shall be made on such Reimbursement Date. If an ABR Loan is deemed to have been requested as aforesaid, such Reimbursement Obligation shall be paid with the proceeds of such Loan and no Default or Event of Default shall exist or be continuing in respect thereof. Notwithstanding the last sentence of Section 2.8, the proceeds of such ABR Loan shall be made available to the relevant Issuing Lender (and not to the Company or such Applicable Account Party) to the account specified by such Issuing Lender, in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent, and the Issuing Lender may credit its L/C Tranche Percentage of such ABR Loan to the relevant Reimbursement Obligation in lieu of funding such amount to the Administrative Agent.

3.6 Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Company and each Applicable Account Party under this Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Company or any Applicable Account Party may have or have had against any Issuing Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person. The Company and each Applicable Account Party also agrees with each Issuing Lender that such Issuing Lender shall not, absent gross negligence or willful misconduct, be responsible for, and the Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.5 of the Company and such Applicable Account Party shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Company or any Applicable Account Party, and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Company or any Applicable Account Party, as the case may be, against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee. No Issuing Lender shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender. The Company and each Applicable Account Party agree that any action taken or omitted by any Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding on the Company and such Applicable Account Party, as the case may be, and shall not result in any liability of such Issuing Lender to the Company or such Applicable Account Party.

3.7 Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft or demand shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Lender shall, within the period stipulated by the terms and conditions of the applicable Letter of Credit, examine such draft or demand presented under such Letter of Credit. After such examination, such Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Applicable Account Party and the Company of the date and amount thereof and whether such Issuing Lender has made or will make the payment under such Letter of Credit; provided, that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Applicable Account Party or the Company of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Lender with respect to any such payment under such Letter of Credit. The Issuing Lender will act in good faith in exercising its discretion under Section 5-109 of the UCC in honoring or refusing to honor a presentation on a Letter of Credit in cases where material fraud is asserted or alleged. The responsibility of the relevant Issuing Lenders to the Company or any other such Applicable Account Party in connection with any draft or demand presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft or demand) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are substantially in conformity with such Letter of Credit.

3.8 Applications. Subject to the requirements of Section 3.12, to the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of any other Loan Document, including this Section 3, the provisions of such other Loan Document or this Section 3, as the case may be, shall apply.

3.9 Collateralization. The Company or any Applicable Account Party may at its option at any time and from time to time Collateralize any Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Applicable Account Party at 100% of the undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letter of Credit. In addition, on or prior to the date that is five Business Days prior to the Termination Date then in effect for any Issuing Lender, the Company or such Applicable Account Party shall Collateralize (or, with the consent of the relevant Issuing Lender, in its sole discretion, enter into alternative arrangements on terms satisfactory to such Issuing Lender in respect of) any Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Applicable Account Party with an expiration date occurring after such Termination Date as provided in Section 3.1. Any Letter of Credit that is Collateralized or subject to such alternative arrangements as provided in this Section 3.9 shall cease to be a “Letter of Credit” outstanding hereunder effective on the date of such Collateralization or guarantee and, accordingly, the rights and obligations of Lenders in respect thereof (including pursuant to Sections 3.3 and 3.4) shall terminate and the Dollar Equivalent of the Outstanding Amount of such Letter of Credit shall no longer be included as an “L/C Obligation” or an “Extension of Credit”.

3.10 New Issuing Lenders; L/C Commitments. (a) The Company may from time to time (i) decrease the L/C Issuing Commitment of any Issuing Lender or terminate any Issuing Lender as an Issuing Lender hereunder (on a prospective basis only) for any reason upon written notice to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender, (ii) add additional Issuing Lenders hereunder and (iii) increase (with the consent of the relevant Issuing Lender) the L/C Issuing Commitment of any existing Issuing Lender. If the Company shall decide to add a new Issuing Lender under this Agreement, then the Company may appoint from among the L/C Tranche Lenders (or an Applicable Lending Office thereof) a new Issuing Lender, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and such Issuing Lender, whereupon such new issuer of Letters of Credit shall be granted the rights, powers and duties of an Issuing Lender hereunder, and the term “Issuing Lender” shall mean such new issuer of Letters of Credit effective upon such appointment. The acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Lender hereunder in accordance with this Agreement or an increase of the L/C Issuing Commitment of any existing Issuing Lender, shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such new issuer of Letters of Credit or existing Issuing Lender, as applicable, in a form reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Lender, the Company and the Administrative Agent and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, such new issuer of Letters of Credit shall become an “Issuing Lender” hereunder or such increased L/C Issuing Commitment shall become effective. Any decrease of an L/C Issuing Commitment or termination of an Issuing Lender shall become effective upon the applicable Issuing Lender’s receipt of notice thereof. After the termination of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the terminated Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to the replacement, termination or Collateralization thereof pursuant to Section 3.9, but shall not issue additional Letters of Credit. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the L/C Tranche Lenders of the effectiveness of any replacement or addition of an Issuing Lender, or any changed L/C Issuing Commitment pursuant to this Section 3.10.

(b) In the event that an Issuing Lender no longer has an Applicable Lending Office in a particular jurisdiction or in the event that an Applicable Lending Office is not legally able to issue a Letter of Credit in such jurisdiction, such Issuing Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, for one or more letters of credit to be issued by an unaffiliated bank that is reasonably acceptable to such Issuing Lender, the Company and the Applicable Account Party with the same pricing and mechanics as described herein and in the L/C Fee Letter and in the manner consistent with Section 3.12 below (it being understood and agreed that the use of commercially reasonable efforts pursuant to this 3.10(b) shall not require any Issuing Lender to incur any monetary cost).

(c) Replacement of Letters of Credit. On the Closing Date or Designation Date, as applicable, each agreement governing the letters of credit referred to clauses (a) and (b) above that constitute Letters of Credit hereunder (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, the Letter of Credit itself) shall be deemed superseded and replaced in its entirety by the provisions of this Agreement and, if applicable, as such provisions may be modified by any Letter of Credit Acknowledgment with regard to such Letters of Credit.

(d) Termination of Existing Guarantees. To the extent any letter of credit issued outside this Agreement by any Issuing Lender or any affiliate thereof becomes a Letter of Credit hereunder pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) above, any guarantees provided by the Company, any Loan Party or any Applicable Account Party to such Issuing Lender or such affiliate in respect of such Existing Letters of Credit or Designated Letters of Credit, as applicable (other than any such existing guarantee provided by the Company under the Existing Three Year Credit Agreement), shall automatically terminate with respect to such Existing Letters of Credit or Designated Letters of Credit, as applicable, on the Closing Date or the applicable Designation Date, as the case may be, and be of no further force or effect. Additionally, any collateral provided by the Company, any Loan Party or any Applicable Account Party with regard to such Existing Letters of Credit or Designated Letters of Credit shall be released and returned to the Company or such Applicable Account Party on the Closing Date or the applicable Designation Date, as the case may be.

With respect to all Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall at such time deposit in an interest bearing cash collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent an amount equal to 100% of the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit (calculated, in the case of Letters of Credit denominated in Optional Currencies, at the Dollar Equivalent thereof on the date of acceleration). Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or terminated or been fully drawn upon, if any, together with all accrued interest and earnings, if any, shall be applied to repay other obligations of the Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or terminated or been fully drawn upon, all Reimbursement Obligations shall have been satisfied and all other obligations of the Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account, together with all accrued interest and earnings, if any, shall be returned to the Company (or such other Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto). Except as expressly provided above in this Section 8, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers.

SECTION 9. THE AGENTS

Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental

##### Table of Contents

thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in any other Loan Document, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.

9.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing resulted from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party a party hereto or thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party.

9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, facsimile, telex or teletype message, e-mail, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified in this Agreement) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified in this Agreement), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

9.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Company referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders as soon as

##### Table of Contents

practicable thereafter. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified in this Agreement); provided, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

9.6 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

9.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Company if it is required to do so under Section 10.5 and without limiting the obligation of the Company under Section 10.5 to do so), ratably according to their respective Commitments in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 9.7 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 9.7 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

9.8 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it, any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by it and any other extension of credit made by

##### Table of Contents

it hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

9.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Company. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or Section 8(e) with respect to the Company shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and with the consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and which consent shall not be required if an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or Section 8(e) with respect to the Company shall have occurred and be continuing), appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500 million. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

None of the Syndication Agent, Co-Syndication Agent nor any of the bookrunners, lead arrangers, documentation agents, global or regional coordinator, or other agents identified on the cover page to this Agreement or in any commitment letter relating hereto (collectively, the “Arrangers”) shall have any duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in their respective capacities as such, nor shall the consent of any such Person, in its capacity as such, be required for any amendment, modification or supplement to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

9.12 Certain ERISA Matters.

(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

(b) In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, and each Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, that the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any of their respective Affiliates is not a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto).

provided, that any notice, request or demand to or upon the Administrative Agent or the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.2, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.9, 2.11, 2.12, 2.14 or 2.30 shall not be effective until received.

(a) Each of the parties hereto agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any notices or other Communications available to the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders by posting such Communications on IntraLinks™ or a substantially similar electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).

(b) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Closing Date, a dual firewall and a user ID/password authorization system) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a single user-per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. In consideration for the convenience and other benefits afforded by such distribution and for the other consideration provided hereunder, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the parties hereto hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.

(c) THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. NONE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY AFFILIATE THEREOF WARRANTS THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.

(d) Each of the parties hereto agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally-applicable document retention procedures and policies.

10.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Agent or any Lender or Ancillary Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

10.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder, in the other Loan Documents and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder.

10.5 Payment of Expenses; Limitation of Liability; Indemnity.

(a) Payment of Expenses. The Company agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers for all their reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, the syndication of the Facilities, the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and any amendment or waiver with respect thereto, including (i) the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket disbursements of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, and one additional local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to the Administrative Agent and, in the event of a conflict, one separate counsel (and one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction) for all persons similarly situated as required to address such conflict, (ii) filing and recording fees and expenses and (iii) the charges of IntraLinks, (b) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents including the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket disbursements and other charges of one primary counsel to the Administrative Agent, one additional local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction which counsel shall act on behalf of all Lenders and the Administrative Agent and, in the event of a conflict, one separate counsel (and one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction) for all persons similarly situated as required to address such conflict and (c) to pay, indemnify or reimburse each Lender, each Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent for, and hold each Lender, each Issuing Lender, and the Administrative Agent harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees that may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b) Limitation of Liability. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert, and each such party hereby waives, any Liability against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of this Agreement or the use or the proposed use of proceeds thereof and the other Loan Documents; provided, that this Section 10.5(b) shall not limit the Loan Parties’ indemnification obligations set forth above to the extent the relevant, special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages are included in any third party claim in connection with which the relevant Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder.

(c) Indemnity. The Company shall pay, indemnify or reimburse each Lender, each Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent, their respective affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, advisors, agents, controlling persons and trustees (each, an “Indemnitee”) for, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (other than with respect to Taxes, which shall be governed exclusively by Section 2.21 or with respect to the costs, losses or expenses which are of the type covered by Section 2.20 or Section 2.22) in respect of the financing contemplated by this Agreement or the use or the proposed use of proceeds thereof, the other Loan Documents and any Ancillary Facility Document (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided, that the Company shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities resulted from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment, (ii) a material breach of the Loan Documents by, such Indemnitee, any of its affiliates or its or their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, advisors, agents, controlling persons or trustees as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment or (iii) any dispute solely among Indemnitees not arising out of any act or omission of the Company or any of its affiliates (other than disputes involving claims against any Indemnitee in its capacity as, or fulfilling its role as, the Administrative Agent, or an Arranger or similar role in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby).

(d) Unless such amounts are being contested in good faith by the Company, all amounts due under this Section 10.5 shall be payable not later than 45 Business Days after the party to whom such amount is owed has provided a statement or invoice therefor, setting forth in reasonable detail, the amount due and the relevant provision of this Section 10.5 under which such amount is payable by the Company and any other Borrower. For purposes of the preceding sentence, it is understood and agreed that the Company may ask for reasonable supporting documentation to support any request to reimburse or pay out-of-pocket expenses, legal fees and disbursements, that the grace period to pay any such amounts shall not commence until such supporting documentation has been received by the Company and that out-of-pocket expenses that are reimbursable by the Company are limited to those that are consistent with the Company’s then prevailing policies and procedures for reimbursement of expenses. The Company agrees to provide upon request by any party that may be entitled to expense reimbursement hereunder, on a confidential basis, a written statement setting forth those portions of its then prevailing policies and procedures that are relevant to obtaining expense reimbursement hereunder. Statements payable by the Company pursuant to this Section 10.5 shall be submitted to the Company at the address of the Company set forth in Section 10.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Company in a written notice to the Administrative Agent.

(e) The agreements in this Section 10.5 shall survive the repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company agrees not to assert, and to cause each of the Subsidiary Guarantors not to assert, and hereby waives, and agrees to cause each of the Subsidiary Guarantors to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee unless the same shall have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or material breach of the Loan Documents by, such Indemnitee, any of its affiliates or its or their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, advisors, agents, controlling persons or trustees as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment.

10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. vi) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any affiliate of an Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) other than pursuant to Section 7.4, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Company or any Subsidiary Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 10.6.

(a) (1) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below and subject to advance notice to the Company, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (other than the Company or any affiliate of the Company or any natural person) (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (in each case, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

(1) the Company (unless such assignment is to a Lender to which any two or more of the following ratings have been issued by the relevant rating agency: (a) in the case of S&P, at least BBB; (b) in the case of Moody’s, at least Baa2; and (c) in the case of Fitch, at least BBB);

102

##### Table of Contents

(2) the Administrative Agent; and

(3) in the case of any assignment of any rights or interest under the L/C Tranche Facility, each Material Issuing Lender at such time (unless such assignment is to a Lender who has an investment grade rating from two of S&P, Moody’s and Fitch);

provided, that (x) no consent provided for in clause (2) above shall be required for an assignment to a Lender or an affiliate thereof, (y) no consents provided for in clause (3) above shall be required for an assignment to an L/C Tranche Lender and (z) no consent of the Company provided for in clause (1) above shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or (e) has occurred and is continuing.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to assign any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) to an Ineligible Assignee without the consent of the Company, which consent may be withheld in its sole discretion.

(I) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments and Loans, the amount of the Commitments and Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $10 million, unless each of the Company and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided, that (1) no such consent of the Company shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or (e) has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its affiliates or Approved Funds, if any;

(B) the parties to each assignment (or, in the case of an assignment made pursuant to the exercise of the Company’s rights under Section 2.24, the Administrative Agent, as agent for the assigning Lender, and the Assignee) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which shall be paid by the assigning Lender or the Assignee or, in the case of an assignment made pursuant to the exercise of the Company’s rights under Section 2.24, by the assigning Lender, the Assignee, or the Company); and

(C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Company an administrative questionnaire.

(II) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under

103

##### Table of Contents

this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.20, 2.21, 2.22 and 10.5 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section 10.6.

(III) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Company, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of and interest on the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Subject to the last sentence of (b)(iii) above, the entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error, and the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Issuing Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Administrative Agent shall provide a copy of the Register to the Company upon its request at any time and from time to time by electronic communication.

(IV) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender (or, in the case of an assignment made pursuant to the exercise of the Company’s rights under Section 2.24, the Administrative Agent, as agent for the assigning Lender) and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 10.6 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 10.6, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(b) (2) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Company, any Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided, that (A) such 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, (C) the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (D) such Participant shall not be an Ineligible Participant, and (E) no later than January 31 of each year, such Lender shall provide the Company with a written description of each participation of Loans and/or Commitments by such Lender during the prior year (it being understood that any failure to provide notice shall not render the participation invalid). Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby pursuant to clause (A) of the proviso to the second sentence of Section 10.1(a) and (2) directly and adversely affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section 10.6, the Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.20, 2.21 and 2.22 to the

104

##### Table of Contents

same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 10.6. Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error, and such Lender, the Company and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

(I) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.20 or 2.21 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any funds directly from the Company in respect of Sections 2.20, 2.21, 2.22 or 10.7 unless such Participant shall have provided to Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Company, such information as is required to be recorded in the Register pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) above as if such Participant were a Lender. Any Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.21 unless such Participant complies with Sections 2.21(c), 2.21(d) and 2.21(e) as though it were a Lender.

(c) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Company or the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure such Lender’s obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section 10.6 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided, that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(d) In connection with any assignment pursuant hereto, the assigning Lender shall surrender the Note held by it and the Company shall, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by the assigning Lender or the Assignee, as applicable, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (in exchange for the outstanding Note of the assigning Lender) a new Note to the order of such assigning Lender or Assignee, as applicable, in the amount equal to the amount of such assigning Lender’s or Assignee’s, as applicable, Commitment to it after giving effect to its applicable assignment (or if the Commitments have terminated, the Loan of such party). Any Notes surrendered by the assigning Lender shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Company marked “cancelled.”

10.7 Adjustments. If any Lender (a “Benefitted Lender”) shall, at any time after the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder shall have become due and payable (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it (other than in connection with an assignment made pursuant to Section 10.6), or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8(e), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other Lender, such Benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash in Dollars (calculated, in the case of any Obligation denominated in an Optional Currency, at the Dollar Equivalent thereof as of the date such Obligations became due and payable) from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of the Obligations

105

##### Table of Contents

owing to each such other Lender, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest; and provided, further, that no payments in respect of Obligations owing by any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be utilized to satisfy any Obligations owing by the Company or any Domestic Subsidiary Borrower.

10.8 Counterparts; Electronic Execution.

(a) This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Company and the Administrative Agent.

(b) Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of (x) this Agreement, (y) any other Loan Documents and/or (z) any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered pursuant to Section 10.2), certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement, any other Loan Documents and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement, such other Loan Documents or such Ancillary, as applicable. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Documents and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include an electronic symbol or process attached to a contract or other record and adopted by a Person with the intent to sign, authenticate or accept such contract or record (each an “Electronic Signature”, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic Signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept any Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the Company or any other Loan Party without further verification thereof and without any obligation to review the appearance or form of any such Electronic signature and (ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower and each Loan Party hereby (i) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Borrower and the Loan Parties, Electronic Signatures transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page and/or any electronic images of this Agreement, any other Loan Documents and/or any Ancillary Document shall have the same legal effect, validity and

enforceability as any paper original, (ii) the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of this Agreement, any other Loan Documents and/or any Ancillary Document in the form of an imaged electronic record in any format, which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document (and all such electronic records shall be considered an original for all purposes and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record), (iii) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Documents and/or any Ancillary Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, such other Loan Document and/or such Ancillary Document, respectively, including with respect to any signature pages thereto and (iv) waives any claim against any Lender, any Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent, their respective affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, advisors, agents, controlling persons and trustees for any Liabilities arising solely from the Administrative Agent’s and/or any Lender’s reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures and/or transmissions by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page, including any Liabilities arising as a result of the failure of the Borrower and/or any Loan Party to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature.

10.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

10.10 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents (other than agreements between any Borrower and any Issuing Lender contemplated by this Agreement).

10.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

As an alternate method of service, each Subsidiary Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding in such New York State or Federal court by mailing of copies of such process to such Subsidiary Borrower by certified or registered air mail at its address specified in the Borrower Joinder Agreement. Each Subsidiary Borrower agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(c) To the extent that any Subsidiary Borrower has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (sovereign or otherwise) from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from jurisdiction of any court or from set-off or any legal process (whether service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) with respect to itself or any of its property, such Subsidiary Borrower hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

10.13 Judgment. The obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary Borrower in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents due to any party hereto shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which the sum originally due to such party is denominated (the “Original Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such party of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency such party may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Original Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due under such judgment to such party in the Original Currency, the Company agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such party against such loss, and if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to any party to this Agreement, such party agrees to remit to the Company such excess. The provisions of this Section 10.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations, interest and Facility Fees payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

10.14 Acknowledgments. Each of the Company and the Subsidiary Borrowers hereby acknowledges that:

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

(b) none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to the Company or any Subsidiary arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and the relationship between Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on one hand, and the Company or any Subsidiary, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

(c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents, or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders or among the Company or any Subsidiary and the Lenders.

(d) Any guarantees of the Obligations from a Subsidiary Guarantor (including any obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the Guarantee) will be automatically released if such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary or for any other reason ceases to be a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to a transaction not otherwise prohibited by the Loan Documents.

##### Table of Contents

(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 Affected Financial Institution, its parent entity, 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 Loan Document; or

(III) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

10.21 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States).

In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

SECTION 2. Guarantee

2.1 Guarantee.

Each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Guaranteed Parties, the prompt and complete payment, and not collection, and performance by the Company, each Subsidiary Borrower, each Ancillary Borrower and each Applicable Account Party, as applicable, when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and at all times thereafter, of all Guaranteed Obligations.

Anything herein or in any other Loan Document or any Ancillary Facility Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable federal and state laws relating to the insolvency of debtors (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 2.2).

Each Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder without impairing the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or affecting the rights and remedies of the Guaranteed Parties hereunder.

The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall remain in full force and effect until all the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Credit Agreement, the Company and/or one or more of the Subsidiary Borrowers, any Ancillary Borrower or any Applicable Account Party may be free from any Guaranteed Obligations.

No payment made by the Company, any Subsidiary Borrower, any Ancillary Borrower, any Applicable Account Party, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by any Guaranteed Party from the Company, any Subsidiary Borrower, any Ancillary Borrower, any Applicable Account Party, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment

(other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations), remain liable for the Guaranteed Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full.

2.2 Right of Contribution.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.3. The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to any Guaranteed Party and each Guarantor shall remain liable to such Guaranteed Party for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

2.3 No Subrogation.

Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by any Guaranteed Party, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of any Guaranteed Party against the Company, any of the Subsidiary Borrowers, any Ancillary Borrower, any Applicable Account Party or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Company, any Subsidiary Borrower, any Ancillary Borrower, any Applicable Account Party or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Guaranteed Parties by the Company, the Subsidiary Borrowers, any Ancillary Borrower and any Applicable Account Party on account of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Guaranteed Parties, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as such Guarantor (or, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent) may determine.

2.4 Amendments, etc. with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations.

Other than as expressly contemplated by Section 3.15 hereof, each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations made by any Guaranteed Party may be rescinded by such Guaranteed Party and any of the Guaranteed Obligations continued, and the Guaranteed Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by any Guaranteed Party, and the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any Ancillary Facility Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders, the Majority Facility Lenders, all affected Lenders, or all Lenders, or any Ancillary Lender, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by any Guaranteed Party for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Company understands and agrees that this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as to the Company’s obligations hereunder notwithstanding the occurrence of any Guarantee Release Date, but subject to any release of such obligations hereunder to the extent provided in, and pursuant to the terms of, Section 3.15 and (y) each of the other Guarantors shall be released from its obligations hereunder to the extent provided in, and pursuant to the terms of, Section 3.15. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, any Guaranteed Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Company, any Subsidiary Borrower, any Ancillary Borrower, any Applicable Account Party, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Guaranteed Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by any Guaranteed Party to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Company, any Subsidiary Borrower, any Ancillary Borrower, any Applicable Account Party, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Company, any Subsidiary Borrower, any Ancillary Borrower, any Applicable Account Party, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of any Guaranteed Party against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of any Guaranteed Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

3.7 Counterparts; Electronic Signature.

This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.
