(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, for purposes of calculating the financial covenant in Article 12 for any period (or a portion of a period) that includes the date of the consummation of a Permitted Acquisition, references to “the Borrower and its Subsidiaries” shall include each acquired Person, or lines of business, as applicable, and the EBITDAR of such acquired

26

Person or line of business (such EBITDAR to be formulated on the basis of the definition of EBITDAR set forth herein), as if the Permitted Acquisition had been consummated on the first day of any such period of measurement (including pro forma adjustments arising out of events which are directly attributable to such Permitted Acquisition, are factually supportable and are expected to have a continuing impact, in each case determined on a basis consistent with Article 11 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, and as interpreted by the staff of the SEC, which would include cost savings resulting from head count reduction, closure of facilities and similar restructuring charges, which pro forma adjustments shall be certified by the chief financial officer of the Borrower).

(b) Covenant Disposition Adjustments. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, for purposes of calculating the financial covenant in Article 12 for any period (or a portion of a period) that includes the date of any disposition of a Subsidiary or line of business, as applicable, EBITDAR shall be determined on a historical pro forma basis to exclude the results of operations of such Subsidiary or line of business, as applicable, so disposed (including pro forma adjustments arising out of events which are directly attributable to such disposition, are factually supportable and are expected to have a continuing impact, in each case determined on a basis consistent with Article 11 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, and as interpreted by the staff of the SEC, which would include cost savings resulting from head count reduction, closure of facilities and similar restructuring charges, which pro forma adjustments shall be certified by the chief financial officer of the Borrower).

CREDIT FACILITY

Section 2.1 Commitments; Loans.

(a) Revolving Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender severally agrees to make loans (each such Loan, a “Revolving Loan”) to the Borrower in US Dollars or in one or more Alternative Currencies from time to time, subject to the provisions of Section 2.4, from the Closing Date to the Maturity Date in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding up to but not exceeding the amount of such Lender’s Commitment as then in effect; provided, however, (i) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans of such Lender plus such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations plus such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swingline Loans shall not at any time exceed such Lender’s Commitment, (ii) the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies plus the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations denominated in Alternative Currencies shall not at any time exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit, and (iii) the Total Outstandings shall not at any time exceed the Aggregate Commitments. Subject to the foregoing limitations, and the other terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans hereunder. Revolving Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Libor Loans. Until the Maturity Date, the Borrower may Continue Libor Loans or Convert Revolving Loans of one Type into Revolving Loans of another Type. Each Type of Revolving Loan advanced by each Lender shall be established and maintained at such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office for such Type of Revolving Loan.

(b) Swingline Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Borrower may from time to time request, and the Swingline Lender may in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.1(b)

27

and in its discretion from time to time advance in US Dollars (but shall in no event be obligated to advance), revolving loans which are to be funded solely by the Swingline Lender (the “Swingline Loans”); provided, however, that (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Swingline Sublimit and (ii) the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments. The Swingline Lender shall give the Agent and each Lender written notice of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans upon the written request of the Agent or any Lender (but no more often than once every calendar quarter). Furthermore, upon one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice given by the Swingline Lender to the Agent and the other Lenders at any time and from time to time (including at any time following the occurrence of a Default) and, in any event, without notice on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, each Lender (including the Swingline Lender) severally agrees, irrevocably and unconditionally, as provided in the first sentence of Section 2.1(a), and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Default or the inability or failure of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to satisfy any condition precedent to funding any Loan contained in Article 8 (which conditions precedent shall not apply to this sentence), to make a Revolving Loan, in the form of a Base Rate Loan, in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans then outstanding, and the proceeds of such Revolving Loan shall be promptly paid by the Agent to the Swingline Lender and applied as a repayment of the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans then outstanding. If for any reason any Swingline Loan cannot be refinanced by such a borrowing of Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans, as described above, the request for Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans submitted by the Swingline Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swingline Lender that each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swingline Loans and each Lender’s payment to the Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation. Subject to the other terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans hereunder. Swingline Loans shall be Base Rate Loans.

Section 2.2 Notes. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Agent) a promissory note, in substantially the form of Exhibit A (a “Revolving Note”), payable to the order of such Lender, in the maximum principal amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment as originally in effect (or, if greater, its Commitment as thereafter increased) and otherwise duly completed. Upon request of the Swingline Lender made through the Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Swingline Lender (through the Agent) a promissory note of the Borrower in the maximum original principal amount of twenty million US Dollars ($20,000,000) payable to the order of the Swingline Lender in substantially the form of Exhibit B (the “Swingline Note”), dated the Closing Date.

Section 2.3 Repayment of Loans. The Borrower shall pay (a) to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders, (i) the prepayments of the Loan required pursuant to Section 5.4(a) and (ii) the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans on the Maturity Date and (b) to the Swingline Lender, the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans on the Maturity Date (or such other times as required by this Agreement).

Section 2.4 Use of Proceeds. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the proceeds of the Loans shall be used by the Borrower (a) to refinance the Borrower’s existing indebtedness under the Existing Agreement, (b) to finance capital expenditures by the Borrower and (c) for general corporate purposes, including to finance working capital requirements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.

28

Section 2.5 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right to terminate fully or to reduce in part the unused portion of the Aggregate Commitments at any time and from time to time, provided that: (a) the Borrower shall not have the right to terminate or reduce in part any unused portion of the Aggregate Commitments that could or may be required to be advanced by the Lenders to refinance Swingline Loans then outstanding; (b) the Borrower shall give the Agent at least three (3) Business Days’ notice of each such termination or reduction as provided in Section 5.3; (c) each partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount at least equal to $10,000,000 or any multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof; and (d) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments, the Alternative Currency Sublimit, the Swingline Sublimit or the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the Aggregate Commitments, such sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. The Aggregate Commitments may not be reinstated after they have been terminated or reduced.

Section 2.6 Increase of Commitments.

(a) Upon notice to the Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may, from time to time prior to the Maturity Date, request one or more increases in the Aggregate Commitments in an aggregate amount of up to $250,000,000; provided that the Aggregate Commitments shall not exceed $750,000,000; provided further that any increase in the Aggregate Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall not increase the Alternative Currency Sublimit. At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond to such request. Each Lender shall respond within such time period to the Agent as to whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to or less than its Commitment Percentage of such requested increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment. The Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase, the Borrower may also (i) request that one or more other Lenders, in their sole and absolute discretion, nonratably increase their Commitment(s) and/or (ii) invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders under the terms of this Agreement.

(b) If any Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, the Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date of such increase (the “Increase Effective Date”). The Agent and the Borrower shall promptly confirm in writing to the Lenders the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date. As a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a certificate dated as of the Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by the Borrower and each Guarantor approving or consenting to such increase, (ii) including a Compliance Certificate demonstrating pro forma compliance with Article 12 after giving effect to such increase and (iii) certifying that before and after giving effect to such increase, the representations and warranties contained in Article 9 are true and correct on and as of the Increase Effective Date and no Default exists. If requested by the applicable Lenders (through the Agent), the Borrower shall deliver new or amended Notes reflecting the new or increased Commitment of each new or affected Lender as of the Increase Effective Date. The Borrower shall prepay any Libor Loans outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any costs incurred in connection with such prepayment pursuant to

29

Section 6.5) to the extent necessary to keep outstanding Loans ratable with any revised Commitment Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Aggregate Commitments under this Section.

(c) This Section shall supersede any provision in Section 15.10 to the contrary.

ARTICLE 3

Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving and, accordingly, the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto and, from and after the Closing Date, shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof; without limiting the foregoing, each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in each Existing Letter of Credit on the Closing Date pursuant to Section 3.2(b).

(b) The L/C Issuer shall not issue any Letter of Credit if:

(i) subject to Section 3.2(c), the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the date of issuance or last extension, unless the Required Lenders have approved such expiry date; or

(ii) subject to Section 3.2(c), the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Maturity Date, unless all the Lenders have approved such expiry date.

30

(c) The L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

(i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law, rule or regulation applicable to the L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the L/C Issuer in good faith deems material to it;

(ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the L/C Issuer;

(iii) except as otherwise agreed by the Agent and the L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than the US Dollar Equivalent of $250,000 or is to be denominated in a currency other than US Dollars or an Alternative Currency;

(iv) the L/C Issuer does not, as of the issuance date of such requested Letter of Credit, issue Letters of Credit in the requested currency;

(v) such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder; or

(vi) any Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless the L/C Issuer has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (in its sole discretion) with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate the L/C Issuer’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 5.10(a)(iv)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which the L/C Issuer has actual or potential Fronting Exposure with respect to the Defaulting Lender, as it may elect in its sole discretion.

(d) The L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of Credit if the L/C Issuer would not be permitted at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof.

(e) The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.

(f) The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Agent in Article 14 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Agent” as used in Article 14 included the L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to the L/C Issuer.

31

Section 3.2 Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit.

(a) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application may be sent by facsimile, Unites States mail, by overnight courier, by electronic transmission using the system provided by the L/C Issuer, by personal delivery or by any other means acceptable to the L/C Issuer. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the L/C Issuer and the Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for the initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (i) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (ii) the amount and currency thereof; (iii) the expiry date thereof; (iv) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (v) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (vi) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (vii) the purpose and nature of the requested Letter of Credit; and (viii) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (3) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (4) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to the L/C Issuer and the Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer or the Agent may require.

(b) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer will confirm with the Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Lender, the Agent or the Borrower, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article 8 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue such Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower (or the applicable Subsidiary) or enter into such amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit.

(c) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Nonextension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of

32

Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than one year after the Maturity Date; provided that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (i) the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 3.1(b) or 3.1(c) or otherwise) or (ii) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Nonextension Notice Date (A) from the Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (B) from the Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 8.2 is not then satisfied, and in each case directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such extension.

(d) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

Section 3.3 Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.

(a) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower and the Agent thereof. In the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Issuer in such Alternative Currency, unless (A) the L/C Issuer (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will require reimbursement in US Dollars, or (B) in the absence of any such requirement for reimbursement in US Dollars, the Borrower shall have notified the L/C Issuer promptly following receipt of the notice of drawing that the Borrower will reimburse the L/C Issuer in US Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in US Dollars of a drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower of the US Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. Within one (1) Business Day of the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in US Dollars, or the Applicable Time on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in an Alternative Currency (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing and in the applicable currency (together with interest thereon at the Base Rate from the date of drawing). If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (expressed in US Dollars in the amount of the US Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency) (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage thereof. In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a borrowing of Revolving Loans at the Base Rate to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 5.2 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 8.2 (other than delivery of a notice of borrowing). Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the Agent pursuant to this Section 3.3(a) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

33

(b) Each Lender (including the Lender acting as L/C Issuer) shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 3.3(a) make funds available (and the Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for such Letter of Credit for this purpose) for the account of the L/C Issuer, in US Dollars at the Principal Office for US Dollar-denominated payments in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 3.3(b), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower in such amount, which shall be a Base Rate Loan. The Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer in US Dollars.

(c) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a borrowing of Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 8.2 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Lender’s payment to the Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 3.3(b) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Article 3.

(d) Until each Lender funds its Revolving Loan or an L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 3.3 to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of the L/C Issuer.

(e) Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 3.3, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or (iii) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 3.3 is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 8.2 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a notice of borrowing). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(f) If any Lender fails to make available to the Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.3 by the time specified in Section 3.3(b), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount, the amount so paid (excluding any interest and fees paid) shall constitute the Lender’s Revolving Loan included in the relevant borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the L/C Issuer

34

submitted to any Lender (through the Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (f) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 3.4 Repayment of Participations.

(a) At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 3.3, if the Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of cash collateral applied thereto by the Agent), the Agent will distribute to such Lender its Commitment Percentage thereof in US Dollars (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Agent.

(b) If any payment received by the Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 3.3(a) is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 15.26 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Commitment Percentage thereof on demand of the Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the, termination of this Agreement.

Section 3.5 Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other Loan Document;

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set-off, defense or other right that the Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or any unrelated transaction;

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, so long as any such document appeared to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

35

(iv) waiver by the L/C Issuer of any requirement that exists for the L/C Issuer’s protection and not the protection of the Borrower or any waiver by the L/C Issuer which does not in fact materially prejudice the Borrower;

(v) honor of a demand for payment presented electronically even if such Letter of Credit requires that demand be in the form of a draft;

(vi) any payment made by the L/C Issuer in respect of an otherwise complying item presented after the date specified as the expiration date of, or the date by which documents must be received under, such Letter of Credit if presentation after such date is authorized by the UCC, the ISP or the UCP, as applicable;

(vii) any payment by the L/C Issuer in good faith under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law;

(viii) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally; or

(ix) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever where the L/C Issuer has acted in good faith.

The Borrower shall examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it within one Business Day of such delivery and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

Section 3.6 Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificate or document expressly required by such Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuer, the Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for: (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuer, the Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the L/C Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (ix) of Section 3.5; provided that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the

36

extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by the L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. The L/C Issuer may send a Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary.

Section 3.7 [Reserved].

Section 3.8 Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise specified in an Existing Letter of Credit (or any renewal thereof) or expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Standby Letter of Credit and (ii) the rules of the UCP at the time of issuance shall apply to each Commercial Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible to the Borrower for, and the L/C Issuer’s rights and remedies against the Borrower shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of the L/C Issuer required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the law or any order of a jurisdiction where the L/C Issuer or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade — International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice.

Section 3.9 Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Commitment Percentage, in US Dollars, a Letter of Credit fee for each Letter of Credit equal to (x) in the case of each Standby Letter of Credit, the Libor Rate Margin times the US Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and (y) in the case of each Commercial Letter of Credit, 50% of the Libor Rate Margin times the US Dollar Equivalent daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit; provided that, while any Event of Default exists, upon the request of the Required Lenders, the rate per annum for Letter of Credit fees shall be increased by 2%). Such letter of credit fees shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such letter of credit fees shall be due and payable (i) on each Quarterly Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, (ii) on the Maturity Date and (iii) thereafter on demand. If there is any change in the Libor Rate Margin during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Libor Rate Margin separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.8.

37

Section 3.10 Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account, in US Dollars, a fronting fee (i) with respect to each commercial Letter of Credit, equal to 0.10% of the US Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such Letter of Credit, and payable upon the issuance thereof, (ii) with respect to any amendment of a commercial Letter of Credit increasing the amount of such Letter of Credit, at a rate separately agreed between the Borrower and the L/C Issuer, computed on the US Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such increase, and payable upon the effectiveness of such amendment, and (iii) with respect to each standby Letter of Credit, equal to 0.10% per annum, computed on the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable (i) on each Quarterly Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, (ii) on the Maturity Date and (iii) thereafter on demand. In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account, in US Dollars, the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.8.

Section 3.11 Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control. Notwithstanding the terms of any Letter of Credit Application for a Commercial Letter of Credit, in no event may the Borrower extend the time for reimbursing any drawing under a Commercial Letter of Credit by obtaining a bankers’ acceptance from the L/C Issuer.

Section 3.12 Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligation of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.

Section 3.13 Monthly Reports. Each L/C Issuer shall provide to the Agent a list of outstanding Letters of Credit issued by it (together with type and amounts) on a monthly basis.

ARTICLE 4

INTEREST AND FEES

Section 4.1 Interest Rate. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the account of each Lender, interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan made by such Lender for the period commencing on the date of the advance of such Revolving Loan to the date such Revolving Loan is due, at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate. The Borrower shall pay to the Swingline Lender, interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan for the period commencing on the date of the advance of such Swingline Loan to the date such Swingline Loan is due, at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate. The term “Applicable Rate” means:

38

(a) with respect to any Base Rate Loan, the Base Rate, plus the Base Rate Margin; and

(b) with respect to any Libor Loan, the Libor Rate, plus the Libor Rate Margin.

Section 4.2 Determinations of Margins and Facility Fee Rate. From the Closing Date to the first Margin Adjustment Date, the margins identified in Section 4.1 shall be as follows: (a) the margin of interest payable with respect to Base Rate Loans (the “Base Rate Margin”) shall be the rate set forth in the following table corresponding to the Leverage Ratio set forth in the certificate of the Borrower delivered pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(x); and (b) the margin of interest payable with respect to Libor Loans (the “Libor Rate Margin”) shall be the rate set forth in the following table corresponding to the Leverage Ratio set forth in the certificate of the Borrower delivered pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(x). From the Closing Date until the first Margin Adjustment Date, the percentage used to determine fees payable under Section 4.6 (the “Facility Fee Rate”) shall be the rate set forth in the following table corresponding to the Leverage Ratio set forth in the certificate of the Borrower delivered pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(x). Upon delivery of the certificate required pursuant to Section 10.1(c) after the end of each Fiscal Quarter commencing with such certificate delivered for the Fiscal Quarter ending November 2, 2014, the Facility Fee Rate, the Base Rate Margin and the Libor Rate Margin shall automatically be adjusted to the fee or rate, as applicable, corresponding to the Leverage Ratio (determined for the preceding twelve (12) Fiscal Periods then ending) of the Borrower set forth in the following table, such automatic adjustment to take effect as of the first day of the calendar month following the date on which such certificate is delivered (the “Margin Adjustment Date”).

LEVERAGE RATIO |  | FACILITY FEE RATE |  |  | LIBOR RATE MARGIN |  |  | BASE RATE MARGIN |
Greater than or equal to 3.00 to 1.00 |  |  | 0.225 | % |  |  | 1.775 | % |  |  | 0.775 | %
Greater than or equal to 2.50 to 1.00 but less than 3.00 to 1.00 |  |  | 0.175 | % |  |  | 1.325 | % |  |  | 0.325 | %

Greater than or equal to 1.50 to 1.00 but less than 2.00 to 1.00 |  |  | 0.110 | % |  |  | 1.015 | % |  |  | 0.015 | %
Less than 1.50 to 1.00 |  |  | 0.090 | % |  |  | 0.910 | % |  |  | 0.000 | %

If the Borrower fails to deliver such certificate with respect to any Fiscal Quarter which sets forth the Leverage Ratio within the period of time required by Section 10.1(c): (x) the Libor Rate Margin (for Interest Periods commencing after the applicable Margin Adjustment Date) shall automatically be adjusted to 1.775% per annum; (y) the Base Rate Margin shall be automatically adjusted to 0.775% per annum; and (z) the Facility Fee Rate shall automatically be adjusted to 0.225% per annum. The automatic adjustments provided for in the preceding sentence shall take effect as of the date on which the referenced certificate is due and shall remain in effect until otherwise adjusted on the date such certificate is actually received in accordance herewith.

39

Section 4.3 Payment Dates. Accrued interest on the Loans shall be due and payable as follows: (a) in the case of Base Rate Loans, on each Quarterly Payment Date and on the Maturity Date; and (b) in the case of Libor Loans, (i) on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto, (ii) in the case of an Interest Period greater than three (3) months, at three (3) month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period and (iii) on the Maturity Date.

Section 4.4 Default Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, during the existence of an Event of Default, the Borrower will pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender interest at the applicable Default Rate on any principal of each Loan made by such Lender and (to the fullest extent permitted by law) any other amount payable by the Borrower under any Loan Document to or for the account of the Agent or such Lender.

Section 4.5 Conversions and Continuations of Loans. Subject to Section 5.2.

(a) with respect to Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall have the right from time to time to Convert Base Rate Loans or Libor Loans into Revolving Loans of the other Type or to Continue Libor Loans in existence as Libor Loans, provided that: (i) the Borrower shall give the Agent notice of each such Conversion or Continuation as provided in Section 5.3; (ii) subject to Article 6, a Libor Loan may only be Converted on the last day of the Interest Period therefor; and (iii) except for Conversions into Base Rate Loans, no Conversions or Continuations shall be made without the consent of the Agent and the Required Lenders at any time during the existence of a Default and

(b) [Reserved].

Section 4.6 Facility Fee. For the period from the Closing Date to the Maturity Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender, pro rata according to its Commitment Percentage, a facility fee equal to the per annum Facility Fee Rate (determined according to the provisions of Section 4.2) multiplied by the Aggregate Commitments (regardless of usage), subject to Section 5.10. Accrued facility fees under this Section shall be payable in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date.

Section 4.7 Administrative Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent on the Closing Date and on each anniversary thereof the administrative fee described in the Fee Letter.

Section 4.8 [Reserved].

40

Section 4.9 Computations; Retroactive Adjustment of Applicable Rate.

(a) Interest and fees payable by the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) in the period for which interest is payable unless such calculation would result in a rate that exceeds the Maximum Rate, in which case interest shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, interest payable by the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents with respect to Base Rate Loans shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) in the period for which interest is payable or, in the case of interest in respect of Libor Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies as to which market practices differ from the foregoing, in accordance with such market practice. Each determination of an interest rate by the Agent shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Agent will, at the request of the Borrower or any Lender, deliver to the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, a statement showing the quotations used by the Agent in determining any interest rate and the resulting interest rate.

(b) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrower or for any other reason, the Borrower or the Required Lenders determine that (i) the Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, promptly on demand by the Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code, automatically and without further action by the Agent or any Lender), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, under Section 3.3(c), 3.9 or 4.4 or under Article 13.

ARTICLE 5

41

(b) Swingline Loans. The Borrower shall give the Agent and the Swingline Lender notice of each borrowing of Swingline Loans in accordance with Section 5.3. Not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date specified for each borrowing of Swingline Loans, if the Swingline Lender in its discretion has agreed to make such Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender will make available the requested Swingline Loan to the Borrower at the Borrower’s direction by transferring the same, in immediately available funds by wire transfer, automated clearinghouse transfer or interbank transfer to (i) a bank account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in writing or (ii) a Person or Persons designated by the Borrower in writing.

42

Any notices of the type described in this Section which are received by the Agent (and, if applicable, the Swingline Lender) after the applicable time set forth above on a Business Day shall be deemed to be received and shall be effective on the next Business Day. Each such notice of termination or reduction shall specify the amount of the Aggregate Commitments to be terminated or reduced. Each such notice of borrowing, Conversion, Continuation or prepayment shall be in the form of Exhibit F or such other form as may be approved by the Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission systems as shall be approved by the Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, and shall specify: (i) the amount of the Loans to be borrowed or prepaid or the Loans to be Converted or Continued; (ii) the amount (subject to Section 5.2) to be borrowed (and whether any of such borrowing will be a Swingline Loan), Converted, Continued or prepaid; (iii) in the case of a Conversion, the Type of Loan to result from such Conversion; (iv) in the case of a borrowing, the Type of Loan requested and the amount thereof; (v) the currency of the Loan to be borrowed (if the Borrower fails to specify a currency in a loan notice, then the Loan requested shall be made in US Dollars); (vi) in the event a Libor Loan is selected, the duration of the Interest Period therefor; and (vii) the date of borrowing, Conversion, Continuation or prepayment (which shall be a Business Day).

(b) Any notices by the Borrower of the type described in this Section may be made orally or in writing and, if made orally, must be confirmed immediately in writing on the same Business Day on which such oral notice is given; provided that any such oral notice shall be deemed to be controlling and proper notice in the event of a discrepancy with or failure to receive a confirming written notice. The Agent shall notify the affected Lenders of the contents of each such notice on the date of its receipt of the same or, if received after the applicable time set forth above on a Business Day, on the next Business Day. In the event the Borrower fails to select the Type of Loan applicable to a borrowing of a Loan, or the duration of any Interest Period for any Libor Loan, within the time period and otherwise as provided in this Section, such Loan (if outstanding as a Libor Loan) will be automatically Converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period for such Libor Loan or (if outstanding as a Base Rate Loan) will remain as, or (if not then outstanding) will be made as, a Base Rate Loan; provided, however, that in the case of a failure to timely request a continuation of any Libor Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Libor Loan shall be continued as a Libor Loan in its original currency with an Interest Period of one month. No Loan may be converted into or continued as a Loan denominated in a different currency, but instead must be prepaid in the original currency of such Loan and reborrowed in the other currency. The Borrower may not borrow any Libor Loan, Convert any Base Rate Loan into a Libor Loan or Continue any Libor Loan as a Libor Loan if the Applicable Rate for such Libor Loan would exceed the Maximum Rate.

(c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Libor Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Libor Loan. During the existence of a Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as Libor Loans (whether in US Dollars or any Alternative Currency) without the consent of the Required Lenders, and the Required Lenders may demand that any or all of the then outstanding Libor Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency be prepaid, or redenominated into US Dollars in the amount of the US Dollar Equivalent thereof, on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto.

43

Section 5.4 Prepayments.

(a) Mandatory.

(i) Overadvance. If for any reason the Total Outstandings at any time exceed the Aggregate Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall, within one Business Day after the occurrence thereof, prepay Loans in an amount equal to such excess and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to such excess or do a combination of the foregoing in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 5.4(a) unless, after the prepayment in full of the Loans, the Total Outstandings exceed the Aggregate Commitments then in effect.

(ii) Swingline Loans. Within one (1) Business Day after any demand therefor by the Agent or the Swingline Lender, the Borrower shall prepay in full the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans.

(iii) Alternative Currency Overadvance. If the Agent notifies the Borrower at any time that the Outstanding Amount of all Loans and L/C Obligations denominated in Alternative Currencies at such time exceeds an amount equal to 105% of the Alternative Currency Sublimit then in effect, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall prepay Loans or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations denominated in Alternative Currencies or do a combination of the foregoing in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such Outstanding Amount as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed 100% of the Alternative Currency Sublimit then in effect.

(b) Optional. Subject to Section 5.2 and the provisions of this clause (b), the Borrower may, at any time and from time to time without premium or penalty upon prior notice to the Agent as specified in Section 5.3, prepay or repay Loans in full or in part. Libor Loans may be prepaid or repaid only on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto unless the Borrower pays to the Agent, for the account of the applicable Lenders or Lender, or, if applicable, to the Swingline Lender, any amounts due under Section 6.5 as a result of such prepayment or repayment.

Section 5.5 Method of Payment.

(a) General. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein (and except with respect to principal and interest on Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies), all payments of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be made to the Agent at the Principal Office for the account of each Lender’s Applicable Lending Office in US Dollars and in immediately available funds by 11:00 a.m. on the date when due. All payments made by the Borrower hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the Agent, at the Applicable Lending Office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Agent. All payments of principal in respect of Swingline Loans shall be made directly to the Swingline Lender in US Dollars and in immediately available funds by 11 a.m. on the date when due. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or set-off. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States. If, for any reason, the Borrower is prohibited by any law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, the Borrower shall make such

44

payment in US Dollars in the US Dollar Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment amount. All payments shall be applied with respect to Libor Loans in the same Alternative Currency until such Revolving Loans are paid in full. The Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Commitment Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office. All payments received by the Agent (i) after 11:00 a.m., in the case of payments in US Dollars, or (ii) after the Applicable Time specified by the Agent in the case of payments in an Alternative Currency, shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrower under this Section shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(b) Application of Payments. Unless the Agent expressly agrees otherwise and subject to the prepayment of any Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 5.4(a)(ii), the Borrower shall, at the time of making each such payment, specify to the Agent the sums payable under the Loan Documents to which such payment is to be applied (and in the event that the Borrower fails to so specify, or if an Event of Default is in existence, the Agent shall apply such payment to outstanding Base Rate Loans prior to any application to any Libor Loans). Each payment received by the Agent under any Loan Document for the account of a Lender shall be paid to such Lender by 1:00 p.m. on the date the payment is deemed made to the Agent in immediately available funds, for the account of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office. Whenever any payment under any Loan Document shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of interest or fees, as the case may be.

Section 5.6 Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) each advance of Revolving Loans shall be made by the Lenders, each payment of facility fees under Section 4.6, and each termination or reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be made, paid or applied (as applicable) pro rata according to the Lenders’ respective Commitment Percentages; (b) the making, Conversion and Continuation of Loans of a particular Type (other than Conversions provided for by Section 6.4) shall be made pro rata among the Lenders holding Loans of such Type according to their respective Commitment Percentages; and (c) each payment and prepayment of principal of or interest on Revolving Loans by the Borrower shall be made to the Agent for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of its Revolving Loans; provided that as long as no default in the payment of interest exists, payments of interest made when Lenders are holding different Types of Revolving Loans as a result of the application of Section 6.4 shall be made to the Lenders in accordance with the amount of interest owed to each. If at any time payment, in whole or in part, of any amount distributed by the Agent hereunder is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Agent as a preference, fraudulent conveyance or otherwise under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, then each Person receiving any portion of such amount agrees, upon demand, to return the portion of such amount it has received to the Agent.

Section 5.7 Sharing of Payments. If a Lender shall obtain, on account of the Revolving Loans made by such Lender or the participations by such Lender in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans held by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, by right of set-off or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, it shall promptly purchase from the other Lenders participations in the portions of the Revolving Loans made by them and/or subparticipations in the

45

participations in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans held by them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share such excess payment pro rata with each of them. To such end, all of the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter rescinded or must otherwise be restored. The Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender so purchasing a participation in accordance with this Section may exercise all rights of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness, liability or obligation of the Borrower. The provisions of this Section 5.7 shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (B) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 5.9, or (C) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Revolving Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

Section 5.8 Non-Receipt of Funds by the Agent.

(a) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Agent. In the case of any borrowing of Revolving Loans, each Lender shall make its share of such borrowing available to the Agent in Same Day Funds at the Agent’s Applicable Lending Office for the applicable currency not later than 1:00 p.m., in the case of a borrowing denominated in US Dollars, and not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Agent in the case of a borrowing in an Alternative Currency, in each case, on the Business Day specified in the notice of borrowing. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any borrowing of Libor Loans (or, in the case of any borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender’s share of such borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 5.1 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable borrowing available to the Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Overnight Rate plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable borrowing to the Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan included in such borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Agent. A notice of the Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

46

(b) Payments by Borrower; Presumption by Agent. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Agent for the account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at the Overnight Rate. A notice of the Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this clause (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Revolving Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 15.2(b) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Revolving Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 15.2(b) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Revolving Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 15.2(b).

Section 5.9 Cash Collateral.

(a) Certain Credit Support Events. Upon the request of the Agent or the L/C Issuer (i) if the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing that has not been repaid, or (ii) if, as of the Maturity Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all such L/C Obligations. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, immediately upon the request of the Agent or the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 5.10(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). Additionally, if the Agent notifies the Borrower at any time that the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations at such time exceeds 105% of the Letter of Credit Sublimit then in effect, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall provide Cash Collateral for the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations in an amount not less than the amount by which the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations exceeds the Letter of Credit Sublimit.

(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as Cash Collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 5.9(c). If at any time the Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Agent, pay or provide to the Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

47

(c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 5.9 or Section 5.4, 5.10 or 13.2 or Article 2 or 3 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(d) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 15.7(b)(vi))) or (ii) the Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower shall not be released during the continuance of a Default (and following application as provided in this Section 5.9 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 13.2), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

Section 5.10 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” and Section 15.10.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 13 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 13.4), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no

48

Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or L/C Borrowings were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 8.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Borrowings owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Borrowings owed to, that Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder without giving effect to Section 5.10(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 5.10(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. That Defaulting Lender (x) shall be entitled to receive any facility fee pursuant to Section 4.6 for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to the sum of (1) the Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans funded by it and (2) its Commitment Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Article 2, Article 3, Section 5.4, Section 5.9, or Section 5.10(a)(ii), as applicable and (y) shall be entitled to receive letter of credit fees pursuant to Section 3.9 for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Commitment Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Article 2, Article 3, Section 5.4, Section 5.9, or Section 5.10(a)(ii). With respect to any facility fee payment pursuant to Section 4.6 and any letter of credit fee under Section 3.9 not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (x) or (y) of the preceding sentence, the Borrower shall (1) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (2) pay to the L/C Issuer the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (3) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv) Reallocation of Commitment Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans pursuant to Articles 2 and 3, the “Commitment Percentage” of each Non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided, that, (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default exists; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment of that Non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans of that Lender.

49

(v) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (a)(iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under applicable Law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuers’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5.9.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Agent, the Swingline Lender and the L/C Issuer agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Commitment Percentages (without giving effect to Section 5.10(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

ARTICLE 6

CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES

Section 6.1 Increased Cost and Reduced Return.

(a) Increased Cost. If any Regulatory Change:

(i) shall subject any Lender or the L/C Issuer (or its Applicable Lending Office) to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to any Loan whose interest is determined by reference to the Libor Base Rate, its Note or its obligation to make any Loan whose interest is determined by reference to the Libor Base Rate available to the Borrower or (as the case may be) issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or change the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) under this Agreement or its Note in respect of any Loan whose interest is determined by reference to the Libor Base Rate (other than franchise taxes or taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of such Lender by the jurisdiction in which such Lender is organized, has its principal office or such Applicable Lending Office or is doing business);

(ii) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement (other than the Eurocurrency Reserve Percentage utilized in the determination of the Libor Rate relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities or commitments of, such Lender or L/C Issuer (or its Applicable Lending Office), including the Commitment of such Lender hereunder; or

50

(iii) shall impose on such Lender or L/C Issuer (or its Applicable Lending Office), the applicable interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or its Note or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities or commitments;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) of making, Converting into, Continuing or maintaining any Loan whose interest is determined by reference to the Libor Base Rate or to reduce any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) under this Agreement or its Note with respect to any Loan whose interest is determined by reference to the Libor Base Rate, then the Borrower shall pay to such Lender on demand such amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction. If any Lender requests compensation by the Borrower under this Section 6.1(a), the Borrower may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to the Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender to make or maintain any Loan whose interest is determined by reference to the Libor Base Rate, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into Libor Loans, until the event or condition giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 6.4 shall be applicable); provided that such suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so requested.

(b) Capital Adequacy. If, after the date hereof, any Lender shall have determined that any Regulatory Change has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any company controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such company could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time upon demand, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction.

(c) Claims Under this Section 6.1. Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 6.1 and will designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to it. Any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 6.1 shall furnish to the Borrower and the Agent a statement setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder, which shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

Section 6.2 Limitation on Libor Loans. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Libor Loan:

(a) the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Libor Base Rate for such Interest Period or (ii) deposits (whether in US Dollars or an Alternative Currency) are not being offered to banks and the applicable offshore interbank market for such currency for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan; or

51

(b) the Agent or the Required Lenders determine (which determination shall be conclusive) and notify the Agent that the Libor Base Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding Libor Loans (whether denominated in US Dollars or an Alternative Currency) for such Interest Period;

then the Agent shall give the Borrower prompt notice thereof specifying the amounts or periods, and so long as such condition remains in effect, (i) the Lenders shall be under no obligation to make additional Libor Loans available to the Borrower, Continue Libor Loans or to Convert Base Rate Loans into Libor Loans and the Borrower shall, on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for the outstanding Libor Loans, either prepay such Libor Loans or Convert such Libor Loans into Base Rate Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) the utilization of the Libor Base Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended.

Section 6.3 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Libor Base Rate (whether denominated in US Dollars or an Alternative Currency) hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent thereof and such Lender’s obligation to make or Continue Libor Loans in the affected currency or currencies or to Convert Base Rate Loans into Libor Loans shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make, maintain and fund Libor Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 6.4 shall be applicable). If such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate of which is determined by reference to the Libor Base Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender, shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Agent without reference to the Libor Base Rate component of the Base Rate until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain Base Rate Loans the interest rate of which is determined by reference to the Libor Base Rate.

Section 6.4 Treatment of Affected Loans. If the obligation of any Lender to make a particular Libor Loan available to the Borrower or to Continue or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, Libor Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 6.1 or Section 6.3 (Loans of such Type being herein called “Affected Loans”), such Lender’s Affected Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans shall, if necessary, be determined by the Agent without reference to the Libor Base Rate component of the Base Rate) on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for the Affected Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion required by Section 6.3, on such earlier date as such Lender may specify to the Borrower with a copy to the Agent) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 6.1 or Section 6.3 that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist:

(a) to the extent that such Lender’s Affected Loans have been so Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s Affected Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and

(b) all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as Libor Loans shall be made or Continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be Converted into Libor Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.

With respect to outstanding Revolving Loans, if such Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 6.1 or Section 6.3 that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender’s Affected Loans no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when Libor Loans made by other

52

Lenders are outstanding, such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding Libor Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding Libor Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages.

Section 6.5 Compensation. Upon the request of any Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Lender) to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense (including loss of anticipated profits, any foreign exchange losses and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain any Loan, from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained, or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract, any customary administrative fees charged by the Lender in connection with the foregoing and any such amounts incurred in connection with syndication of this Agreement) incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any payment, prepayment or Conversion by the Borrower of a Libor Loan for any reason (including the acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 13.2) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Libor Loan;

(b) any failure by the Borrower for any reason (including the failure of any condition precedent specified in Article 8 to be satisfied) to borrow, Convert, Continue or prepay a Libor Loan on the date for such borrowing, Conversion, Continuation or prepayment specified in the relevant notice of borrowing, prepayment, Continuation or Conversion under this Agreement; or

(c) any failure by the Borrower to make payment of any Loan or drawing under any Letter of Credit (or interest due thereon) denominated in an Alternative Currency on its scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency;

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 6.5, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Libor Loan made by it at the Libor Base Rate used in determining the Libor Rate for such Libor Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the offshore interbank market for such currency for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Libor Loan was in fact so funded.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.5, if at any time the mandatory prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 5.4(a) would result in the Borrower incurring breakage costs under this Section 6.5 as a result of Libor Loans being prepaid other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (collectively, the “Affected Libor Loans”), then the Borrower may in its sole discretion initially deposit a portion (up to 100%) of the amounts that otherwise would have been paid in respect of the Affected Libor Loans with the Agent (which deposit, after giving effect to interest to be earned on such deposit prior to the last day of the relevant Interest Periods, must be equal in amount to the amount of Affected Libor Loans not immediately prepaid) to be held as security for the obligations of the Borrower hereunder pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, with such cash collateral to be directly applied upon the first occurrence (or occurrences) thereafter of the last day of an Interest Period applicable to the Affected Libor Loans (or such earlier date or dates as shall be requested by the Borrower), to repay an aggregate principal amount of the Loans equal to the Affected Libor Loans not initially repaid pursuant to this sentence.

53

Section 6.6 Taxes.

(a) Withholding Taxes. (i) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all payments by the Borrower or any Guarantor to or for the account of any Lender or the Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender or the Agent (as applicable), taxes imposed on or measured by its income and franchise taxes imposed on it by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) or the Agent (as the case may be) is organized, located or doing business or any political subdivision thereof, and excluding in the case of any Foreign Lender taxes arising as a result of such Lender’s failure to comply with Section 15.21 (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If any applicable laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Agent , the Borrower or any Guarantor, as applicable) require the deduction of withholding of any taxes from any payment made under any Loan Document, then the Agent, the Borrower or such Guarantor shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding.

(ii) If the Agent, the Borrower or any Guarantor shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any taxes from any payment, then (A) the Agent shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by the Agent to be required, (B) the Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower or the applicable Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 6.6) the applicable recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(iii) If the Agent, the Borrower or any Guarantor shall be required by laws other than the Code to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to any Lender or the Agent (as applicable), (A) the sum payable by the Borrower or such Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 6.6) such Lender or the Agent (as applicable) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (B) the Agent, the Borrower or such Guarantor, as applicable, shall make such deductions, (C) the Agent, the Borrower or such Guarantor, as applicable, shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and (D) the Borrower or such Guarantor, as applicable, shall furnish to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(b) Stamp Taxes, Etc. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (“Other Taxes”).

(c) Tax Indemnification. THE BORROWER AGREES TO INDEMNIFY EACH LENDER AND THE AGENT-RELATED PERSONS FOR THE FULL AMOUNT OF “TAXES” AND “OTHER TAXES” (INCLUDING ANY “TAXES” OR “OTHER TAXES” IMPOSED OR ASSERTED BY ANY JURISDICTION ON AMOUNTS PAYABLE UNDER THIS

54

SECTION 6.6) PAID BY SUCH LENDER OR ANY AGENT-RELATED PERSON (AS THE CASE MAY BE) AND ANY LIABILITY (INCLUDING PENALTIES, INTEREST AND EXPENSES) ARISING THEREFROM OR WITH RESPECT THERETO, OTHER THAN PENALTIES, ADDITIONS TO TAX, INTEREST AND EXPENSES ARISING AS A RESULT OF GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT ON THE PART OF SUCH LENDER OR AGENT-RELATED PERSON. THE BORROWER AGREES TO INDEMNIFY THE AGENT FOR ANY AMOUNT WHICH A LENDER FOR ANY REASON FAILS TO PAY INDEFEASIBLY TO THE AGENT AS REQUIRED PURSUANT TO SECTION 15.21 BELOW.

(d) For purposes of determining withholding taxes imposed under FATCA from and after the effective date of the Amendment and Restatement, the Borrower and the Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Agent to treat) the Loan as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

ARTICLE 7

GUARANTIES

Section 7.1 Guaranties. Each Domestic Subsidiary of the Borrower party to the Subsidiary Guaranty as of the Closing Date and any other Subsidiary of the Borrower which at any time Guarantees the indebtedness, liabilities and obligations of the Borrower under any Debt of the Borrower or any Domestic Subsidiary permitted under Section 11.1(m) or 11.1(n) shall guarantee payment and performance of the Obligations pursuant to the Subsidiary Guaranty.

By notice to the Borrower, declare all outstanding principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable by the Borrower under the Loan Documents immediately due and payable, and the same shall thereupon become immediately due and payable, without further notice, demand, presentment, notice of dishonor, notice of acceleration, notice of intent to accelerate, protest or other formalities of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower except as where required by the specific terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents;

provided, however, that, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 13.1(e) or Section 13.1(f) with respect to the Borrower or any Guarantor, the Commitments of all of the Lenders and any obligation of the L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit

78

Extensions shall automatically terminate and the outstanding principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable by the Borrower or any other party under the Loan Documents shall thereupon become immediately due and payable, and the obligation of the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations as aforesaid shall automatically become effective, in each case without further act of the Agent or any Lender, and in each case without notice, demand, presentment, notice of dishonor, notice of acceleration, notice of intent to accelerate, protest or other formalities of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

(f) Application of Funds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 13.2 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the L/C Obligations have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in the proviso to Section 13.2), any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall be applied by the Agent in the following order:

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Agent and amounts payable under Article 6) payable to the Agent in its capacity as such;

Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Letter of Credit fees) payable to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders and the L/C Issuer (including fees and time charges for attorneys who may be employees of any Lender or the L/C Issuer) and amounts payable under Article 6), ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them;

Fourth, to (a) payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, L/C Borrowings, liabilities under any Hedge Agreement with any Lender or any Affiliate of a Lender and as to which the Agent has received notice of the amounts owed thereunder from the applicable Lender or any Affiliate of a Lender party to a Hedge Agreement, (b) payment of amounts due under any Treasury Management Agreement between any Loan Party and any Lender or any Affiliate of a Lender and (c) Cash Collateralize that portion of L/C Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit, ratably among the Lenders (or Affiliate thereof, as the case may be) and the L/C Issuer in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them; and

Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by law.

Subject to Section 3.3, amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fourth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above.

79

Section 13.3 Performance by the Agent. Upon the occurrence of a Default, if the Borrower or any Guarantor shall fail to perform any agreement in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, the Agent may, and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, perform or attempt to perform such agreement on behalf of the Borrower or such Guarantor, as applicable. In such event, at the request of the Agent, the Borrower shall promptly pay any amount expended by the Agent or the Lenders in connection with such performance or attempted performance, to the Agent at the Principal Office together with interest thereon at the Default Rate applicable to Base Rate Loans from the date of such expenditure to the date such expenditure is paid in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly agreed that neither the Agent, the Arrangers, nor any Lender shall have any liability or responsibility for the performance of any obligation of the Borrower or any Guarantor under any Loan Document.

Section 13.4 Set-off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender (after obtaining the prior written consent of the Agent) is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Borrower or any other Person (any such notice being hereby expressly waived), to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, but excluding any account established by the Borrower as a fiduciary for another party) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the Obligations now or hereafter existing under any Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not the Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand under such Loan Documents and although the Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or indebtedness; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of set-off, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.10 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of set-off. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) after any such set-off and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights and remedies of each Lender hereunder are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which such Lender may have.

Section 13.5 Continuance of Default. For purposes of all Loan Documents, a Default shall be deemed to have continued and exist until the Agent shall have actually received evidence satisfactory to the Agent that such Default shall have been remedied.

ARTICLE 14

THE AGENT

Section 14.1 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Except with respect to the consent requirements under Section 14.6, the provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, and neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor shall have

80

rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

Section 14.2 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

Section 14.3 Exculpatory Provisions. The Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent:

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 15.10 and 13.2) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or the L/C Issuer.

The Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 8 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent.

81

Section 14.4 Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of any Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the L/C Issuer unless the Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 14.5 Delegation of Duties. The Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Agent. The Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non appealable judgment that the Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

Section 14.6 Resignation of Agent. The Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees

82

payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Sections 15.1 and 15.2 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Agent was acting as Agent.

Any resignation by Bank of America as Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender, (b) the retiring L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and (c) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit.

Section 14.7 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 14.8 Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower or any Guarantor, the Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations arising under the Loan Documents that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Agent under Sections 3.9, 3.10, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8, 15.1 and 15.2) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Agent and, in the event that the Agent shall consent to the making of such

83

payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Agent under Sections 4.7, 15.1 and 15.2.

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

Section 14.9 Guaranty Matters. The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranties if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder. Upon request by the Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Agent’s authority to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 14.9.

Section 14.10 No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Bookrunners, Arrangers or Syndication Agents, Co-Documentation Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Agent, a Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder.

(d) Payments. All amounts due under this Section 15.2 shall be payable within thirty (30) Business Days after demand therefor.

(e) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

Section 15.3 No Duty. All attorneys, accountants, appraisers and other professional Persons and consultants retained by any of the Agent, the Arrangers or any Lender shall have the right to act exclusively in the interest of Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders and shall have no duty of disclosure, duty of loyalty, duty of care or other duty or obligation of any type or nature whatsoever to the Borrower or any Guarantor, any shareholders of the Borrower or any Guarantor or any other Person.

Section 15.4 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its controlled Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Agent and the Arrangers, are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its controlled Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agent and the Arrangers, on the other hand, (B) the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) the Agent and the Arrangers each is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its controlled Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Agent nor the Arrangers has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its controlled Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Agent and the Arrangers and its Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its controlled Affiliates, and neither the Agent nor the Arrangers has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower and its controlled Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Agent and the Arrangers with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

Section 15.5 Equitable Relief. The Borrower recognizes that in the event the Borrower or any Guarantor fails to pay, perform, observe or discharge any or all of the Obligations under the Loan Documents, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Agent and the Lenders. The Borrower therefore agrees that the Agent and the Lenders, if the Agent or the Required Lenders so request, shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages.

Section 15.6 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement. No failure on the part of the Agent or any Lender to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege under any Loan Document (including the imposition of the Default Rate) shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under any Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies provided for in the Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Borrower, any Guarantor or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Agent in accordance with Section 13.2 for the benefit of all the Lenders; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) the L/C Issuer or the Swingline Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising set-off rights in accordance with Section 13.4 (subject to the terms of Section 5.7), or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to the Borrower or any Guarantor under any bankruptcy or insolvency law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Agent pursuant to Section 13.2 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 5.7, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

Section 15.7 Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of clause (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of clause (d) of this Section or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of clause (f) of this

87

Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in clause (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitment and its Loans (including for purposes of this clause (b), participations in L/C Obligations and in Swingline Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) (A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the related Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender no minimum amount need be assigned;

(B) in any case not described in clause (b)(i)(A) of this subsection, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $10,000,000 unless each of the Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single assignee (or to an assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met,

(ii) Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned.

(iii) No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

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

88

(C) the consent of the L/C Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding); and

(D) the consent of the Swingline Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of Revolving Loans and the Commitments.

(iv) The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided, however, that the Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v) No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (B) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) a natural person.

(vi) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans in accordance with its Commitment Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Agent pursuant to clause (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 6.1, 6.5, 6.6, 15.1 and 15.2 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender and, if applicable, shall deliver a replacement Note to the assignor Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that

89

does not comply with this clause (b) 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 clause (d) of this Section. From time to time upon request of the Borrower, the Agent will inform the Borrower of the identities of all Lenders and their respective Commitments.

(c) The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Principal Office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may 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, and any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as the Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee, or transferee of the corresponding Commitments or Obligations. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, but with notice to, the Borrower and the Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swingline Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Agent 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. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 15.2(b) without regard to the existence of any participation. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that a Lender selling a participation may, in any agreement with a Participant, give such Participant the right to consent to any matter which (A) extends the Maturity Date as to such Participant or any other date upon which any payment of money is due to such Participant, (B) reduces the rate of interest owing to such Participant, any fee or any other monetary amount owing to such Participant, (C) reduces the amount of any installment of principal owing to such Participant or (D) releases all or substantially all of the Guarantors of their obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty. Subject to clause (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 6.1, 6.5 and 6.6 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant shall be also entitled to the benefits of Section 13.4 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 5.7 as though it were a Lender.

(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 6.1, 6.5 or 6.6 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender

90

if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 6.5 or 6.6 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 15.21 as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the Agent and the Borrower shall be third-party beneficiaries of such covenant).

(f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America or Wells Fargo, as applicable, assigns all of its Commitment and Revolving Loans owing to it pursuant to clause (b) above, (i) Bank of America or Wells Fargo, as applicable, may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as an L/C Issuer and/or (ii) Bank of America, may upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower, resign as Swingline Lender. In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender hereunder (and upon acceptance of such appointment by a Lender, such Lender shall be such successor L/C Issuer and/or such successor Swingline Lender); provided that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender or Wells Fargo as L/C Issuer, as the case may be. If Bank of America or Wells Fargo resigns as L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to fund Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 3.3). If Bank of America resigns as Swingline Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swingline Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to fund Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.1. Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and/or Swingline Lender, (1) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be and (2) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America or Wells Fargo, as applicable, to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America or Wells Fargo, as applicable, with respect to such Letters of Credit.

Section 15.8 Survival. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any extension of credit hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding. Without prejudice to the survival of any other obligation of the Borrower hereunder, the obligations under Article 6, Section 15.1 and Section 15.2 shall survive repayment of the Obligations and termination of the Commitments.

91

Section 15.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents and any letter agreements referred to herein, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on the subject matter hereof. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and govern; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

Section 15.10 Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of any Loan Document may be amended or waived and any consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom may be granted if, but only if, such amendment, waiver or consent is in writing and is signed by the Borrower, and the Required Lenders; provided that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall:

(a) waive any condition set forth in Section 8.1(a) without the written consent of each Lender;

(b) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment theretofore terminated) without the written consent of such Lender;

(c) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

(d) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan or L/C Borrowing, or (subject to clause (iv) of the second proviso to this Section 15.10) any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend (i) the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate or (ii) amend the financial covenant hereunder (or any defined term used therein) even if the effect of such amendment would be to reduce the rate of interest on any Loan or L/C Borrowing or to reduce any fee payable hereunder;

(e) change Section 13.2 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender;

(f) amend Section 1.6 or 1.7 or the definition of “Alternative Currency” without the written consent of each Lender;

(g) change any provision of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; or

(h) release all or substantially all the Guarantors from the Guaranty without the written consent of each Lender;

and, provided further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the L/C Issuer in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the L/C Issuer under

92

this Agreement or any Issuer Document relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it, (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Swingline Lender in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and (iv) the Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender disproportionately adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary the Agent and the Borrower may amend, modify or supplement this Agreement or any other Loan Document to cure or correct administrative errors or omissions, any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency or to effect administrative changes or to extend an existing Lien over additional property, and such amendment shall become effective without any further consent of any other party to such Loan Document so long as (i) such amendment, modification or supplement does not adversely affect the rights of any Lender or other holder of Obligations in any material respect and (ii) the Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment.

Section 15.11 Maximum Interest Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excessive interest shall be applied to the principal of the Obligations or, if it exceeds the unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations.

Section 15.12 Notices; Effectiveness; Electronic Communication.

(a) General. Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and except as provided in subsection (b) below), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail, sent by electronic mail as permitted by subsection (b) below or sent by telecopier as follows, and all notices and other communications expressly permitted hereunder to be given by telephone shall be made to the applicable telephone number, as follows:

(b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail, FpML messaging, and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to Article 3 and Article 4 if such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as applicable, has notified the Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

Unless the Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement) and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor, provided that, for both clauses (i) and (ii), if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient.

(c) The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Agent or any of its Related

94

Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s or the Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Platform, any other electronic platform or electronic messaging services or through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

(d) Change of Address, Etc. Each of the Borrower, the Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swingline Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the Borrower, the Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swingline Lender. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify the Agent from time to time to ensure that the Agent has on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, telecopier number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender. Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including United States Federal and state securities laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws.

(e) Reliance by Agent and Lenders. The Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notice (including telephonic notices of borrowing, Conversion and Continuation) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Agent may be recorded by the Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

Section 15.15 Severability. Any provision of any Loan Document held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable shall not impair or invalidate the remainder of such Loan Document and the effect thereof shall be confined to the provision held to be invalid or illegal.

Section 15.16 Headings. The headings, captions and arrangements used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 15.17 Construction. The Borrower, each Guarantor (by its execution of the Loan Documents to which it is a party), the Agent and each Lender acknowledges that each of them has had the benefit of legal counsel of its own choice and has been afforded an opportunity to review the Loan Documents with its legal counsel and that the Loan Documents shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the parties thereto.

Section 15.18 Independence of Covenants. All covenants under the Loan Documents shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default if such action is taken or such condition exists.

EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Section 15.20 Confidentiality. The Agent, each Lender and each Participant shall use any confidential non-public information concerning the Borrower and its Subsidiaries that is furnished to the Agent or such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in connection with the Loan Documents (collectively, “Confidential Information”) solely for the purpose of evaluating and providing products and services to them and administering and enforcing the Loan Documents, and it will hold the Confidential Information in confidence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agent and each Lender may disclose Confidential Information (a) to their Affiliates or any of their or their Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, auditors, counsel, advisors or representatives (collectively, the “Representatives”) whom it determines need to know such information for the purposes set forth in this Section, (b) to any bank or financial institution or other entity to which such Lender has assigned or desires to assign an interest or participation in the Loan Documents or the Obligations, provided that any such foregoing recipient of such Confidential Information agrees to keep such Confidential Information confidential as specified herein, (c) to any Governmental Authority (or self regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) having or claiming to have authority to regulate or oversee any aspect of the Agent’s or such Lender’s business or that of their Representatives in connection with the exercise of such authority or claimed authority, (d) to the extent necessary or appropriate to effect or preserve the Agent’s or such Lender’s or any of their Affiliates’ security (if any) for any Obligation or to enforce any right or remedy or in connection with any claims asserted by or against the Agent or such Lender or any of their Representatives, (e) to the extent required by applicable law or pursuant to any subpoena or any similar legal process, (f) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (g) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations and (h) with the consent of the Borrower. For purposes hereof, the term “Confidential Information” shall not include information that (x) is in the Agent’s or a Lender’s possession prior to its being provided by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that such information is not known by the Agent or such Lender to be subject to another confidentiality agreement with, or other legal or contractual obligation of confidentiality to, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (y) is or becomes publicly available (other than through a breach hereof by the Agent or such Lender) or (z) becomes available to the Agent or such Lender on a nonconfidential basis; provided, further, that the source of such information was not known by the Agent or such Lender to be bound by a confidentiality agreement or other legal or contractual obligation of confidentiality with respect to such information. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

97

Each of the Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws.

Section 15.21 Foreign Lenders. Each Foreign Lender (including an Eligible Assignee that is a Foreign Lender and a Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender) shall deliver to the Agent, prior to receipt of any payment subject to withholding under the Code (or after accepting an assignment of an interest or purchasing a participation herein), two (2) duly signed completed copies of either IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or any successor thereto (relating to such Foreign Lender and entitling it to an exemption from withholding tax on all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement) or IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement) or such other evidence satisfactory to the Borrower and the Agent that such Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption from U.S. withholding tax. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Foreign Lender shall (a) promptly submit to the Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant U.S. taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current U.S. laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to the Borrower and the Agent of any available exemption from U.S. withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, (b) promptly notify the Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption and (c) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Foreign Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Applicable Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable laws that the Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Foreign Lender. If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the 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 Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the 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 the preceding sentence, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. If such Foreign Lender fails to deliver the above forms or other documentation, then the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Foreign Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code, without reduction. If any Governmental Authority asserts that the Agent did not properly withhold any tax or other amount from payments made in respect of such Foreign Lender, such Foreign Lender shall indemnify the Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Agent under this Section, and costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) of the Agent. The obligation of the Lenders under this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of the Agent.

98

Section 15.22 Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement amends, restates and replaces in its entirety the Existing Agreement. All rights, benefits, indebtedness, interest, liabilities and obligations of the parties to the Existing Agreement are hereby amended, restated, replaced and superseded in their entirety according to the terms and provisions set forth herein. All indebtedness, liabilities and obligations under the Existing Agreement, including all promissory notes executed by the Borrower pursuant thereto, are hereby renewed by this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents executed by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and shall, from and after the Closing Date, be governed by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Borrower represents and warrants that as of the date hereof there are no claims or offsets against, or defenses or counterclaims to, its obligations under this Agreement, the Existing Agreement or any of the other agreements, documents or instruments executed in connection herewith or therewith. To induce the Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement, the Borrower waives any and all such claims, offsets, defenses and counterclaims, whether known or unknown, arising prior to the Closing Date and relating to the Existing Agreement or this Agreement.

Section 15.23 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act. The Borrower shall, promptly following a request by the Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Act.

Section 15.24 Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Agent from the Borrower in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Agent in such currency, the Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

99

Section 15.25 Replacement of Lenders.

If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 6.1, (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 6.6, (iii) a Lender (a “Non-Consenting Lender”) does not consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Loan Document that has been approved by the Required Lenders as provided in Section 15.10 but requires unanimous consent of all Lenders or all Lenders directly affected thereby (as applicable) or (iv) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 15.7), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(a) the Borrower shall have paid to the Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 15.7(b);

(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 6.5) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 6.1 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 6.6, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable laws; and

(e) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Non-Consenting Lender’s failure to consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Loan Document, the applicable replacement bank, financial institution or Fund consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination;

provided, further, that the failure by such Lender to execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance shall not impair the validity of the removal of such Lender and the mandatory assignment of such Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans and participations in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans pursuant to this Section 15.25 shall nevertheless be effective without the execution by such Lender of an Assignment and Acceptance.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Section 15.26 Payments Set Aside.

To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Agent or any Lender, or the Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied

100

shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 15.27 Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents.

The words “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including without limitation Assignment and Acceptances, amendments or other modifications, and notices of borrowing, Conversion, Continuation or prepayment, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act; provided that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary the Agent is under no obligation to agree to accept electronic signatures in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; and provided further, without limiting the foregoing, upon the request of any party, any electronic signature shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart.

Section 15.28 Release of Guarantors.

A Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section, the Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender to) execute and deliver to the Borrower, at the Borrower’s expense, all documents that the Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Agent.

Section 15.29 Termination of Agreement.

At such time as all principal and interest on the Loans, all L/C Borrowings, all fees, expenses and other amounts payable under the Loan Documents (other than contingent Obligations under Sections 15.1 and 15.2 for which no claims have been asserted and obligations in respect of Hedge Agreements and Treasury Management Agreements) shall have been paid in full, the Commitments shall have been terminated and all Letters of Credit either shall no longer be outstanding or shall have been Cash Collateralized in full, this Agreement and the Subsidiary Guaranty and all obligations (other than obligations which by their express terms survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments or this Agreement) of the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder and thereunder shall automatically terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person.

101

Section 15.30 Keepwell.

Each Loan Party that is a Qualified ECP Guarantor at the time a Guaranty by any Loan Party that is not then an “eligible contract participant” under the Commodity Exchange Act (a “Specified Loan Party”) or the grant of a security interest under the Loan Documents by any such Specified Loan Party, in either case, becomes effective with respect to any Swap Obligation, hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support to each Specified Loan Party with respect to such Swap Obligation as may be needed by such Specified Loan Party from time to time to honor all of its obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of such Swap Obligation (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering such Qualified ECP Guarantor’s obligations and undertakings under the applicable Guaranty voidable under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable debtor relief laws, and not for any greater amount). The obligations and undertakings of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full. Each Loan Party intends this Section to constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each Specified Loan Party for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Section 15.31 California Judicial Reference.

If any action or proceeding is filed in a court of the State of California by or against any party hereto in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, (a) the parties agree, and hereby agree to advise the applicable court, that the adjudication of any such action or proceeding (and all related claims) shall be made pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 by a referee (who shall be a single active or retired judge) who shall hear and determine all of the issues in such action or proceeding (whether of fact or of law) and report a statement of decision, provided that at the option of any party to such proceeding, any such issues pertaining to a “provisional remedy” as defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1281.8 shall be heard and determined by the court, and (b) without limiting the generality of Sections 15.1 and 15.2, the Borrower shall be solely responsible to pay all fees and expenses of any referee appointed in such action or proceeding.
