SECTION 1.04 Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification.  The interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate.  The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market.  In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans.  In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate.  In the event that the London interbank offered rate is no longer available or in certain other circumstances as set forth in Section 2.16(b) of this Agreement, such Section 2.16(b) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest.  The Administrative Agent will notify the Company, pursuant to Section 2.16, in advance of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “LIBO Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate, as it may or may not be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.16(b), will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the LIBO Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.

(g)     Obligations Absolute.  Each Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.08 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that such Borrower may have or have had against each Issuing Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person.  Each Borrower also agrees with each Issuing Lender that such Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and each Borrower’s reimbursement obligations under Section 2.08(f) shall not be affected by, among other things, (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, any Acceptance or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (b) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit or an Acceptance proving to be invalid, fraudulent or forged in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (c) any dispute between or among any Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or Acceptance or any other party to which such Letter of Credit or an Acceptance may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of any Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or such Acceptance or any such transferee, (d) payment by any Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit or an Acceptance against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or such Acceptance, or (e) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, each Borrower's obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, nor any Issuing Lender shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or creation of any Acceptance or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit or any Acceptance (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse such Issuing Lender from liability to any Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by each Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Lender's failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit or an Acceptance comply with the terms thereof.  The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), any Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination.  In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit or an Acceptance, any Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit or an Acceptance.

(h)     Disbursement Procedures.  Each Issuing Lender shall, within a reasonable time following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit or an Acceptance.  Each Issuing Lender shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve such Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Lender and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(i)     Interim Interest.  If any Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that such Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Credit Loans; provided that if such Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section, then Section 2.15(c) shall apply.  Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for account of the applicable Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Lender shall be for account of such Revolving Credit Lender to the extent of such payment.

(j)     Mandatory Prepayment.  (A) In the event that (i) there is a determination made by any regulatory body or instrumentality thereof (including, without limitation, any Federal Reserve Bank or any bank examiner), or there is a change in, or change in interpretation of, any applicable law, rule or regulation, in either case which changes the treatment of Acceptances under Section 13 of the Federal Reserve Act or any other regulation or rule of the Board, and as a result any Lender is required to maintain, or determines as a matter of prudent banking practice that it is appropriate for it to maintain, additional reserves, or (ii) any restriction is imposed on any Lender (including, without limitation, any change in acceptance limits imposed on any Lender) which would prevent such Lender from creating or participating in Acceptances or otherwise performing its obligations in respect of Acceptances, then the Administrative Agent may, or upon the direction of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrowers in accordance with Section 10.01, demand prepayment of all outstanding Acceptances (if such prepayment is required), and the Issuing Lenders shall have no further obligation to create Acceptances hereunder.  The Borrowers agree that it shall, within ten Business Days of its receipt of a notice of mandatory prepayment of Acceptances, prepay all Acceptances in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.08(j)(B) hereof.

(B) Any prepayment of any Acceptances made pursuant hereto shall be made to the applicable Issuing Lender and shall be in an amount equal to the face amount of such Acceptance minus a prepayment discount calculated by the accepting bank in accordance with its customary practice for similar Acceptances and communicated to the Borrowers.

(C) Except as otherwise provided herein, Acceptances may not be prepaid prior to maturity.

(k)     Replacement of Issuing Lender.  Any Issuing Lender may resign or be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Company, the Administrative Agent, the resigned or replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of any such resignation or replacement of an Issuing Lender.  At the time any such resignation or replacement shall become effective, the Company shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for account of the resigned or replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(b).  From and after the effective date of any such resignation or replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the resigned or replaced Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued or Acceptances to be created thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require.  After the resignation or replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the resigned or replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued or Acceptances created by it prior to such resignation or replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit or to create additional Acceptances.

(l)     Cash Collateralization.  If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Company receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Revolving Credit Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Credit Lenders representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposures) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to 105% of the total LC Exposures as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to any Loan Party described in clause (h) or (i) of Article VIII.  Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Loan Parties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account.  Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Company’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest.  Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account.  Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse each Issuing Lender for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the total LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Revolving Credit Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Credit Lenders representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposures), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Loan Parties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  If the Company is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Company within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

SECTION 2.09 Funding of Borrowings.

(a)     Funding by Lenders.  Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders.  The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the applicable Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of such Borrower designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Credit Borrowings made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.08(f) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Lender.

(b)     Presumption by the Administrative Agent.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and such Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the New York Fed Bank Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans.  If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

SECTION 2.10 Interest Elections.

(a)     Elections by the Borrowers.  The Loans constituting each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request.  Thereafter, the applicable Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such Borrowing as a Borrowing of the same Type and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods, all as provided in this Section.  The applicable Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans of the respective Class constituting such Borrowing, and the Loans of such Class constituting each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

(b)     Notice of Elections.  To make an election pursuant to this Section, the applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.06 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election.  Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by such Borrower.

(c)     Content of Interest Election Requests.  Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.05:

(i)     the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii)     the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii)     whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

(iv)     if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period” and permitted under Section 2.05(d).

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d)     Notice by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders.  Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e)     Failure to Elect; Events of Default.  If a Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Company, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.11 Termination, Reduction and Increase of the Commitments.

(a)     Scheduled Termination.  Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date.

(b)     Voluntary Termination or Reduction.  The Company may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to this Section shall be in an amount that is $1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000 and (ii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.13, the total Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Revolving Credit Commitments.  The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments under this paragraph (b) at least one Business Day prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof.  Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof.  Each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of such termination may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.  Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permanent.

(c)     Increase of Revolving Credit Commitment.

(i)     Requests for Increase.  The Company may propose at any time that the Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder be increased (each such proposed increase being a “Revolving Credit Commitment Increase”) by having an existing Revolving Credit Lender agree to increase its then existing Revolving Credit Commitment (each an “Increasing Revolving Credit Lender”) and/or by adding as a new Revolving Credit Lender hereunder any Person reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that shall agree to provide a Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder (each an “Assuming Revolving Credit Lender”), in each case, by notice to the Administrative Agent specifying the amount of the relevant Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, the Increasing Revolving Credit Lender(s) and/or Assuming Revolving Credit Lenders providing for such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase and the date on which such increase is to be effective (the “Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Date”), which shall be a Business Day at least three Business Days after delivery of such notice and 30 days prior to the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date; provided that:

(A)     the minimum amount of each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall be $5,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000;

(B)     the aggregate amount of all Revolving Credit Commitment Increases hereunder, together with the aggregate amount of all Incremental Term Loans, shall not exceed $75,000,000;

(C)     both at the time of any such request and upon the effectiveness of any Revolving Credit Commitment Increases, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from such proposed Revolving Credit Commitment Increase;

(D)     the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV and in the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of any materiality qualifier contained therein) immediately prior to, and after giving effect to, such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase as if made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date);

(E)     on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence of additional Revolving Loans to be borrowed on the Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Date (and to any Acquisition consummated concurrently with such incurrence as if such Acquisition had occurred on the first day of the most recent Reference Period for which financial statements are available), the Company shall be in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 7.11 recomputed as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Company for which financial statements are available; and

(F)     any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall be on terms identical to the existing Revolving Credit Commitments and in all respects shall become a part of the existing Revolving Credit Commitments.

Each notice by the Company under this paragraph shall be deemed to constitute a representation and warranty by the Company Parties as to the matters specified in clauses (C) and (D) above. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Revolving Credit Lender shall have any obligation hereunder to become an Increasing Revolving Credit Lender and any election to do so shall be in the sole discretion of each Revolving Credit Lender.

(ii)     Effectiveness of Increase.  Each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase (and the increase of the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Increasing Revolving Credit Lender and/or the new Revolving Credit Commitment of each Assuming Revolving Credit Lender, as applicable, resulting therefrom) shall become effective as of the relevant Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Date upon receipt by the Administrative Agent, on or prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Date, of (A) a certificate of a duly authorized officer of the Company stating that the conditions with respect to such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase under this paragraph (c) have been satisfied, (B) an agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which, effective as of such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Date, as applicable, the Revolving Credit Commitment of each such Increasing Revolving Credit Lender shall be increased or each such Assuming Revolving Credit Lender shall undertake a Revolving Credit Commitment, in each case duly executed by such Increasing Revolving Credit Lender or Assuming Revolving Credit Lender, as the case may be, and the Company and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent and (C) such certificates or other documents from the Borrowers reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase.  Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a fully executed agreement from each Increasing Revolving Credit Lender and/or Assuming Revolving Credit Lender referred to in clause (B) above, together with the certificate and other documents referred to in clauses (A) and (C) above, the Administrative Agent shall record the information contained in each such agreement in the Register and give prompt notice of the relevant Revolving Credit Commitment Increase to the Company and the Lenders (including, if applicable, each Assuming Revolving Credit Lender).  On each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Date, the Borrowers shall simultaneously (i) prepay in full the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans (if any) held by the Revolving Credit Lenders immediately prior to giving effect to the relevant Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, (ii) if any Borrower shall have so requested in accordance with this Agreement, borrow new Revolving Credit Loans from all Revolving Credit Lenders (including, if applicable, any Assuming Revolving Credit Lender) such that, after giving effect thereto, the Revolving Credit Loans are held ratably by the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitments (after giving effect to such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase) and (iii) pay to the Revolving Credit Lenders the amounts, if any, payable under Section 2.18; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, at the election of the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, any Revolving Credit Loans outstanding on such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Date shall be reallocated among the Revolving Credit Lenders (with Revolving Credit Lenders making any required payments to each other) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans ratable with any revised pro rata shares of such Lenders arising from any nonratable increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments under this Section 2.11(c). Upon each such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, the participation interests of the Revolving Credit Lenders in the then outstanding Letters of Credit, and Acceptances shall automatically be adjusted to reflect, and each Revolving Credit Lender (including, if applicable, each Assuming Revolving Credit Lender) shall have a participation in each such Letter of Credit and Acceptance equal to, the Revolving Credit Lenders’ respective Revolving Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit or such Acceptance, as applicable, after giving effect to such increase.

(d)     Incremental Term Loans.

(i)     Requests for Incremental Term Loans.  The Company and any one or more Lenders or other lenders arranged by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (an “Incremental Term Loan Lender”) may from time to time agree that such Incremental Term Loan Lenders shall make one or more tranches of term loans available to the Company (each an “Incremental Term Loan”). Any such Incremental Term Loan shall be made available (the date such Incremental Term Loan is made available, an “Incremental Term Loan Effective Date”) to the Company on terms and pursuant to a supplement to this Agreement in form and substance substantially consistent with the terms related to the Term Loans and Term Loans A-1 in this Agreement, or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Administration Agent and the Company (an “Incremental Term Loan Supplement”) executed and delivered by the Company, the applicable Incremental Term Loan Lenders and the Administrative Agent (which Incremental Term Loan Supplement may include such amendments to this Agreement as shall be required in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent to effect the intent of this Section); provided that:

(A)     the minimum amount of each Incremental Term Loan shall be $5,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000;

(B)     the aggregate amount of all Incremental Term Loans hereunder, together with the aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Commitment Increases made under Section 2.11(c), shall not exceed $75,000,000;

(C)     both at the time of any such request and upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Term Loans, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from such proposed Incremental Term Loan;

(D)     the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV and in the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects immediately prior to, and after giving effect to, such Incremental Term Loan on and as of the Incremental Term Loan Effective Date as if made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date);

(E)     on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence of any such Incremental Term Loans (and to any Acquisition consummated concurrently with such incurrence as if such Acquisition had occurred on the first day of the most recent Reference Period for which financial statements are available), the Company shall be in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 7.11 recomputed as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Company for which financial statements are available;

(F)     Incremental Term Loans may, among other things, be subject to the mandatory prepayment obligations set forth in Section 2.13(c); and

(G)     the interest rates, maturity and amortization schedules applicable to any Incremental Term Loan shall be determined by the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Incremental Term Loan Lenders thereunder; provided that (i) the Incremental Term Loans shall not mature earlier than the date that is six months after the Term Loan Maturity Date and (ii) in the event that the Applicable Rate for any Incremental Term Loan exceeds the Applicable Rate for the Term Loans or the Term Loans A-1 by more than 50 basis points, then the Applicable Rate for the Term Loans or the Term Loans A-1, as applicable, shall be increased to be the same as the Applicable Rate for such Incremental Term Loan minus 50 basis points; provided, further, that in determining the Applicable Rates applicable to the Term Loans, the Term Loans A-1 and the Incremental Term Loans, (x) original issue discount (“OID”) or upfront fees (which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of OID) payable by the Company to the Lenders of the Term Loans, the Term Loans A-1 or the Incremental Term Loans in the primary syndication thereof shall be included (with OID being equated to interest based on an assumed four-year life to maturity) and (y) if the LIBOR or ABR “floor” for the Incremental Term Loans is greater than the LIBOR or ABR “floor,” respectively, for the Term Loans or Term Loans A-1, the difference between such floor for the Incremental Term Loans and the Term Loans or Term Loans A-1, as applicable, shall be equated to an increase in the Applicable Rate for purposes of this clause (G).

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall have any obligation hereunder to become an Incremental Term Loan Lender and any election to do so shall be in the sole discretion of each Lender.

(ii)     Effectiveness of Increase.  On each Incremental Term Loan Effective Date, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (A) a certificate of a duly authorized officer of the Company stating that the conditions with respect to such Incremental Term Loan under this paragraph (d) have been satisfied, (B) an executed Incremental Term Loan Supplement and (C) such certificates or other documents from the Company reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with such Incremental Term Loan.  Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a fully executed Incremental Term Loan Supplement, together with the certificate and other documents referred to in clauses (A) and (C) above, the Administrative Agent shall record the information contained in each such agreement in the Register and give prompt notice of the relevant Incremental Term Loan to the Company and the Lenders.

SECTION 2.12 Repayment of Revolving Credit Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a)     Repayment.  Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Revolving Credit Lender the full outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans made to such Borrower, and each such Revolving Credit Loan shall mature, on the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date.

(b)     Maintenance of Records by Lenders.  Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c)     Maintenance of Records by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d)     Effect of Entries.  The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay the Loans made to it in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e)     Promissory Notes.  Any Lender may request that Loans made by it to any Borrower be evidenced by a promissory note of such Borrower.  In such event, such Borrower, at its own expense, shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note(s) payable to such Lender or its registered assigns and substantially in the form of Exhibit B-1or, B-2 or B-3, as appropriate, and such note(s) shall be evidence of such Loans (and all amounts payable in respect thereof).  Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of such Lender or its registered assigns.

SECTION 2.13 Prepayment of Loans.

(a)     Optional Prepayments.  The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of paragraph (d) of this Section.

(b)     Clean-Down. For at least 30 consecutive days during each fiscal year and for at least ten consecutive days during the period commencing on December 1 through and including January 31 of each fiscal year, no Revolving Credit Loan borrowed under the Working Capital Sublimit shall be outstanding.

(c)     Mandatory Prepayments.

(i)     If any Indebtedness shall be incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (excluding any Indebtedness incurred in accordance with Section 7.01), an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied within five Business Days of the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the Term Loans A-1 as set forth in Section 2.13(c)(iii).

(ii)     If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Recovery Event then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof within five Business Days of the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied within ten Business Day following receipt thereof toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the Term Loans A-1; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the Term Loans A-1.  For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Net Cash Proceeds from the Company’s sale of Fannie May Confections Brands, Inc. (including its subsidiaries, Fannie May Confections, Inc. and Harry London Candies, Inc.), which would otherwise have been required to be applied to make a prepayment of the Existing Term Loans under the Existing Credit Agreement unless reinvested as provided therein, shall not be required to be applied to prepay the Term Loans and such Net Cash Proceeds shall be deemed to have been reinvested in accordance with the provisions hereof.

(iii)     Amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments shall be applied to the prepayment of the Term Loans and the Term Loans A-1 in accordance with Section 2.20. The application of any prepayment to a particular Class pursuant to this Section 2.13(c) shall be made, first, to ABR Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans. Each prepayment of the Loans under this Section 2.13(c) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid. Each prepayment of the Term Loans and the Term Loans A-1 in accordance with this Section 2.13(c) shall be made on a pro rata basis between the Term Loans and the Term Loans A-1 and, in each case, shall be applied to installments thereof in the inverse order of maturity.

(d)     Notices, Etc.  The applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.11, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.11.  Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing of any Class, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof.  Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.05, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment.  Each prepayment of a Borrowing of any Class shall be applied ratably to the Loans of such Class included in such Borrowing and (unless the Company shall otherwise direct) shall be made, first, to ABR Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans.  Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.15.

SECTION 2.14 Fees.

(a)     Commitment Fee.  The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Revolving Credit Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily unused amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment during the period from and including the Second Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the earlier of the date the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate and the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date.  Accrued commitment fees shall be payable on each Quarterly Date and on the earlier of the date the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate and the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Second Restatement Effective Date.  All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).  For purposes of computing commitment fees, the Revolving Credit Commitment of a Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and LC Exposure of such Revolving Credit Lender.

(b)     Letter of Credit Fees.  The Company agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for account of each Revolving Credit Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loans on the average daily amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Second Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the applicable Issuing Lender a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the total LC Exposures in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Second Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, as well as such Issuing Lender’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder.  Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of each of March, June, September and December shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Second Restatement Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand.  Any other fees payable to the Issuing Lenders pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand.  All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(c)     Administrative Agent Fees.  The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Company and the Administrative Agent.

(d)     Acceptance Fees. The Company agrees to pay to the applicable Issuing Lender a fee (the “Acceptance Fee”) in advance, at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate, on the date of creation of each Acceptance.  All Acceptance Fees shall be calculated on the face amount of the Acceptance issued and computed on the basis of the actual number of days in the term thereof and a year of 365 days.  The Acceptance Fee shall be in addition to any other fees payable to each Issuing Lender in connection with the creation, issuance or discounting of such Acceptance.  The discount rate for Acceptance Fees shall be calculated under terms customary to the practice of the applicable Issuing Lender and shall be based upon a year of 365 days and the term of such Acceptance.

(e)     Payment of Fees.  All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Lender, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto.  Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.15 Interest.

(a)     ABR Loans.  The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b)     Eurodollar Loans.  The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

(c)     Default Interest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrowers hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.

(d)     Payment of Interest.  Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of the Revolving Credit Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR  Revolving Credit Loan prior to the end of the Revolving Credit Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(e)     Computation.  All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).  The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.16 Alternate Rate of Interest.  (a) If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or

(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the LIBO Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their respective Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Company and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or the continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and such Borrowing (unless prepaid) shall be continued as, or converted (on the last day of the then-current Interest Period) to, an ABR Borrowing and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.

(b)  If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) have not arisen but either (w) the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate has made a public statement that the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate is insolvent (and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of the LIBO Screen Rate), (x) the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Screen Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published by it (and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of the LIBO Screen Rate), (y) the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Screen Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published or (z) the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Screen Rate may no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Company shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBO Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable (but for the avoidance of doubt, such related changes shall not include a reduction of the Applicable Rate); provided that, if such alternate rate of interest as so determined would be less than zero (or in the case of the Term Loans A-1, less than 0.75%), such rate shall be deemed to be zero (or in the case of the Term Loans A-1, deemed to be 0.75%) for the purposes of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.02, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date a copy of such amendment is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment.  Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (b) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 2.16(b), only to the extent the LIBO Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and such Borrowing (unless prepaid) shall be continued as, or converted (on the last day of the then-current Interest Period) to, an ABR Borrowing and (y) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.

SECTION 2.17 Increased Costs.

(a)     Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:

(i)     subject any Lender or the Issuing Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes indemnifiable under Section 2.19 and (B) Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

(ii)     impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or any Issuing Lender; or

(iii)     impose on any Lender or any Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or any Acceptance or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing, maintaining or creating any Letter of Credit or any Acceptance or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the applicable Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)     Capital Adequacy, Liquidity Requirements.  If any Lender or any Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Acceptances held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued or Acceptances created by such Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c)     Requests, Rules, Guidelines, etc . Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or by United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, and (ii) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented.

(d)     Certificates from Lenders.  A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts, necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower and the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(e)     Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.18 Break Funding Payments.  In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(b) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 2.22, then, in any such event, the applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss (other than any loss of anticipated profits), cost and expense attributable to such event.  In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss (other than any loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount reasonably determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market.  A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Company shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.19 Taxes.

(a)     Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Loan Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if  any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or Issuing Lender, as determined in good faith by the Company or the Administrative Agent, as applicable (the “Applicable Withholding Agent”), then (i) the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party to the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Lender (as the case may be) shall be increased as necessary so that after all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) have been made by the Applicable Withholding Agent, the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deduction and (iii) such amounts shall be paid by the Applicable Withholding Agent to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

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

(c)     Indemnification by the Loan Parties.  The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of such Loan Party hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to a Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) or an Issuing Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)     Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes, imposed with respect to a payment under any Loan Document, by a Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e)     Tax Forms.  Any Lender or Issuing Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of any applicable withholding Tax with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the applicable Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender or Issuing Lender, if requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable such Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender or Issuing Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, in the case of any withholding tax other than the U.S. federal withholding tax, the completion, execution and submission of such forms shall not be required if in the Foreign Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Foreign Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Foreign Lender.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any Borrower is a United States person under Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement, and after the occurrence of a change in the Lender’s circumstances which require a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i)     duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party,

(ii)     duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

(iii)     in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the Form of Exhibit E to the effect that (A) such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) such Foreign Lender is not a “10 percent shareholder” of the Company within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, (C) such Foreign Lender is not a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (D) no payments in connection with any Loan Document are effectively connected with the United States trade or business conducted by such Lender (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) duly completed copies of  Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E,

(iv)     to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Foreign Lender is a partnership or participating Lender granting a typical participation), an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more beneficial owners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such beneficial owner, or

(v)     any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit a Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made, if any.

Each Lender and Issuing Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered by it expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

Any Lender or Issuing Lender that is a United States person under Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, to the extent it may lawfully do so, shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender or Issuing Lender becomes a Lender or Issuing Lender, as applicable, under this Agreement, on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, and after the occurrence of a change in the Lender or Issuing Lender’s circumstances which require a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Company or the Administrative Agent), duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender or Issuing Lender is entitled to an exemption from U.S. backup withholding tax.

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 1471(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this paragraph, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Second Restatement Effective Date.

Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to deliver to the Loan Parties and to any successor Administrative Agent any documentation provided by such Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.19(e).

(f)     Each Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) the full amount of any Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so) and (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.4(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, in either case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (f).

(g)     Refunds.  If the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Borrower or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay over such refund to such Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender or such Issuing Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that such Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender or such Issuing Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender or such Issuing Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender or such Issuing Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any other Person.

(h)     Survival.  The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

SECTION 2.20 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set offs.

(a)     Payments by the Borrowers.  Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.17, 2.18 or 2.19, or otherwise) or under any other Loan Document (except as otherwise expressly provided therein) prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set off or counterclaim.  Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon.  All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at an account maintained with the Administrative Agent as notified to the Company and the Lenders, except as otherwise expressly provided in the relevant Loan Document and except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Lenders as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.17, 2.18, 2.19 and 10.03, which shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.  If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.  All payments hereunder and under any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars.

(b)     Application of Insufficient Payments.  If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.

(c)     Pro Rata Treatment.  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein:  (i) each Borrowing of a particular Class shall be made from the applicable Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of the respective Commitments of such Class and shall be allocated pro rata among the applicable Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Commitments of such Class (in the case of the making of Loans) or their respective Loans of such Class that are to be included in such Borrowing (in the case of conversions and continuations of Loans), (ii) each payment of commitment fees under Section 2.14 shall be made for account of the Revolving Credit Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments under Section 2.11 shall be applied to the Revolving Credit Commitments, pro rata according to the respective Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders; (iii) each payment or prepayment of principal of Loans of any Class by any Borrower shall be made for account of the applicable Lenders pro rata according to the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans of such Class held by such Lenders; and (iv) each payment of interest on Loans of any Class by any Borrower shall be made for account of the applicable Lenders pro rata according to the amounts of interest on such Loans of such Class then due and payable to such Lenders. Amounts prepaid on account of the Term Loans or the Term Loans A-1 may not be reborrowed.

(d)     Sharing of Payments by Lenders.  If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, as applicable, and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, as applicable, of other applicable Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the applicable Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, as applicable; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(e)     Presumptions of Payment.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from any Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the applicable Lenders or the applicable Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the New York Fed Bank Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(f)     Certain Deductions by the Administrative Agent.  If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.08(e), 2.09(b) or 2.20(e), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

SECTION 2.21 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a)     Designation of a Different Lending Office.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.17, or if a Borrower is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Section 2.19, then such Lender shall, if requested by the Company, use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.17 or 2.19, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.  Nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrowers or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 or 2.19.

(b)     Replacement of Lenders.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.17, if a Borrower is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Section 2.19, if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder or if any Lender does not consent to any proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of each of the Lenders or each of the Lenders affected thereby (so long as the consent of the Required Lenders has been obtained), then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender or any Lender that becomes a Defaulting Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Company shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and (if a Revolving Credit Commitment is being assigned) each Issuing Lender, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the applicable Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.17 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.19, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (iv) until such time as such assignment shall be consummated, the Borrowers shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.17 or 2.19.  A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.  Each party hereto agrees that (i) any assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Company, the Administrative Agent and the assignee, and (ii) the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to and be bound by the terms thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable Lender; provided that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.

SECTION 2.22 Designation of Subsidiary Borrowers.

(a)     Designation.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section (including paragraph (b) of this Section), the Company may, at any time or from time to time upon not less than five Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent (or such other period which is acceptable to the Administrative Agent), request that a wholly-owned Domestic Subsidiary specified in such notice become a party to this Agreement as a Subsidiary Borrower; provided that each such designation shall be subject to the prior approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval in each case shall not be unreasonably withheld).  The Administrative Agent shall upon receipt of such notice from the Company promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender and the Issuing Lenders of the Company’s designation.  Upon such approval and the satisfaction of the conditions specified in paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept the relevant Subsidiary Borrower Designation Letter whereupon the applicable Subsidiary shall become a party to this Agreement as a Subsidiary Borrower and entitled to borrow Revolving Credit Loans and to have Letters of Credit issued and Acceptances created for its own account hereunder.

(b)     Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness of Designation.  The effectiveness of a designation by the Company of any Subsidiary as a Borrower hereunder shall be subject to the following conditions precedent: (i) receipt by the Administrative Agent of each of the following documents (each of which shall be in satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in form and substance) (x) a Subsidiary Borrower Designation Letter, duly completed and executed by the Company and the applicable Subsidiary, delivered to the Administrative Agent at least five Business Days before the date on which such Subsidiary is proposed to become a Borrower; and (y) such opinions, documents and certificates as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request (including certified copies of the organizational documents of such Subsidiary and of resolutions of its board of directors authorizing such Subsidiary becoming a Borrower hereunder, and of all documents evidencing all other necessary corporate or other action required with respect to such Subsidiary becoming party to this Agreement) that are consistent with conditions for the Loan Parties set forth in Section 5.01; and (ii) receipt by the Administrative Agent, each Revolving Credit Lender and each Issuing Lender of all documentation and other information with respect to the applicable Subsidiary that is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, such Revolving Credit Lender or such Issuing Lender, as applicable, and that the Administrative Agent, such Revolving Credit Lender or such Issuing Lender, as applicable, reasonably determines is required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

(c)     Termination of Subsidiary Borrower.  The Company may, at any time at which no Revolving Credit Loans or any other amounts hereunder or under any other Loan Documents shall be outstanding to, nor any Letters of Credit or any Acceptances shall be outstanding for the account of, any Subsidiary Borrower, terminate such Subsidiary Borrower as a Borrower hereunder by delivering an executed notice thereof (each a “Termination Letter”), substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2, to the Administrative Agent; provided that if the Company notifies the Administrative Agent that a Subsidiary Borrower ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Company in a transaction not prohibited by this Agreement, a Termination Letter is deemed delivered by the Company and received by the Administrative Agent effective as of the date that such Subsidiary Borrower ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Company.  Any Termination Letter or notice, as applicable, furnished hereunder shall be effective upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly following receipt of such Termination Letter or notice, as applicable, so notify the Revolving Credit Lenders and the Issuing Lenders), whereupon all commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders to make Revolving Credit Loans to, and all obligations of the Issuing Lenders to issue Letters of Credit or create Acceptances for the account of, such Subsidiary Borrower and all of rights of such Subsidiary Borrower hereunder shall terminate and such Subsidiary Borrower shall cease to be a Borrower hereunder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delivery (or deemed delivery) of a Termination Letter with respect to any Subsidiary Borrower shall not terminate (i) any obligation of such Subsidiary Borrower that remains unpaid at the time of such delivery (or deemed delivery) or (ii) the obligations of the Company under Article III with respect to any such unpaid obligations. The parties hereto acknowledge Fannie May Confections, Inc. and Harry London Candies, Inc. are terminated as Subsidiary Borrowers hereunder and that a Termination Letter in accordance with this Section 2.22(c) is deemed delivered by the Company and received by the Administrative Agent effective as of the date that each of Fannie May Confections, Inc. and Harry London Candies, Inc. ceased to be a Subsidiary of the Company in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.23 Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a)     fees set forth in Section 2.14(a) shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender;

(b)     to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) any voluntary prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans shall, if the Company so directs at the time of making such voluntary prepayment, be applied to the Revolving Credit Loans of other Lenders as if such Defaulting Lender had no Revolving Credit Loans outstanding and the Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender were zero, and (ii) any mandatory prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans shall, if the Company so directs at the time of making such mandatory prepayment, be applied to the Revolving Credit Loans of other Lenders, but not to the Revolving Credit Loans of such Defaulting Lender, it being understood and agreed that the Company shall be entitled to retain any portion of any mandatory prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans that is not paid to such Defaulting Lender solely as a result of the operation of the provisions of this clause (b);

(c)     the Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 10.02), provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;

(d)     if any LC Exposure exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i)     all or any part of such LC Exposure shall be reallocated among the Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Percentages but, in any case, only to the extent (x) the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures of all Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders plus such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure does not exceed the total of the Commitments of all Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders and (z) the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 are satisfied at such time; and

(ii)     if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.08(l) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

(iii)     if the Borrowers cash collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to this paragraph (d), the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv)     if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to this paragraph (d), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.14(a) and Section 2.14(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Percentages; or

(v)     if any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this paragraph (d), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lenders or any Lender hereunder, all commitment fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such LC Exposure) and fees payable in connection with any Letters of Credit or Acceptances under Sections 2.14(b) and 2.14(d) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Lenders until such LC Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated; and

(e)     so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit or create any Acceptance, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrowers in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section, and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or Acceptance shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with paragraph (d)(i) of this Section (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein).; and

(f)     In the event that each of the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers and the Issuing Lenders agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Revolving Percentage.

SECTION 2.24 MIRE Event.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the making, increasing, extension or renewal of any Loans pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to flood insurance due diligence and flood insurance compliance in accordance with Section 6.11(b)(ix) hereto and shall otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders.

SECTION 3.01 The Guarantee.  (a)  The Company hereby guarantees to each Guaranteed Party the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the (i) Subsidiary Borrower Obligations, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Subsidiary Borrower Guaranteed Obligations”) and (ii) Subsidiary Guarantor Obligations, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Subsidiary Guarantor Guaranteed Obligations”).  The Company hereby further agrees that if any Subsidiary Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of such Subsidiary Borrower Guaranteed Obligations or Subsidiary Guarantor Guaranteed Obligations, as applicable, the Company will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of such Subsidiary Borrower Guaranteed Obligations or Subsidiary Guarantor Guaranteed Obligations, as applicable, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

(b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby jointly and severally guarantees to each Guaranteed Party the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Borrower Obligations (other than such obligations, if any, of such Subsidiary Guarantor), in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Borrower Guaranteed Obligations”).  The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby further jointly and severally agree that if any such Borrower shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of such Borrower Guaranteed Obligations, the Subsidiary Guarantors will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of such Borrower Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

SECTION 3.02 Obligations Unconditional.  The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 3.01 are absolute and unconditional, and (in the case of the Subsidiary Guarantors) joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of the other Loan Parties under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of their respective Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section that the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantors hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:

(i)     at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of their respective Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(ii)     any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein shall be done or omitted;

(iii)     the maturity of any of their respective Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of their respective Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; or

(iv)     any lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or Lenders or any other Guaranteed Party as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected.

The Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Guaranteed Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Company under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of their respective Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 3.03 Reinstatement.  The obligations of each Guarantor under this Article shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the other Borrowers in respect of the relevant Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of such Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and each Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each other Guaranteed Party on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including fees of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such other Guaranteed Party in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

SECTION 3.04 Subrogation.  Each Guarantor hereby agrees that, until the payment and satisfaction in full of all Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement, it shall not exercise any right or remedy arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 3.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against the Company or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 3.05 Remedies.  Each Guarantor agrees that, as between such Guarantor and the Lenders, the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article VIII (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Article VIII) for purposes of Section 3.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by any Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Guarantor for purposes of Section 3.01.

SECTION 3.06 Instrument for the Payment of Money.  Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Guaranteed Party, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to proceed by motion for summary judgment in lieu of complaint pursuant to N.Y. Civ. Prac. L&R § 3213.

SECTION 3.07 Continuing Guarantee.  The guarantee in this Article is a continuing guarantee, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

SECTION 3.08 Rights of Contribution.  The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agree, as between themselves, that if any Subsidiary Guarantor shall become an Excess Funding Guarantor (as defined below) by reason of the payment by such Subsidiary Guarantor of any Guaranteed Obligations, then each other Subsidiary Guarantor shall, on demand of such Excess Funding Guarantor (but subject to the next sentence), pay to such Excess Funding Guarantor an amount equal to such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Pro Rata Share (as defined below and determined, for this purpose, without reference to the properties, debts and liabilities of such Excess Funding Guarantor) of the Excess Payment (as defined below) in respect of such Guaranteed Obligations.  The payment obligation of a Subsidiary Guarantor to any Excess Funding Guarantor under this Section 3.08 shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the other provisions of this Article III and such Excess Funding Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy with respect to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all of such obligations.

For purposes of this Section 3.08, (i) “Excess Funding Guarantor” means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, a Subsidiary Guarantor that has paid an amount in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) “Excess Payment” means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, the amount paid by an Excess Funding Guarantor in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations and (iii) “Pro Rata Share” means, for any Subsidiary Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (x) the amount by which the aggregate fair saleable value of all properties of such Subsidiary Guarantor (excluding any shares of stock or other equity interest of any other Subsidiary Guarantor) exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder and any obligations of any other Subsidiary Guarantor that have been Guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor) to (y) the amount by which the aggregate fair saleable value of all properties of the Company and all of the Subsidiary Guarantors exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of the Obligors hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) of all of the Subsidiary Guarantors, determined (A) with respect to any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a party hereto on the Second Restatement Effective Date, as of the Second Restatement Effective Date, and (B) with respect to any other Subsidiary Guarantor, as of the date such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

SECTION 3.09 General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations.  In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state or Federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 3.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 3.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

SECTION 3.10 Termination or Release.  (a) The Guarantee of each Subsidiary Guarantor set forth in this Article III shall terminate with respect to all Obligations upon the date that the Commitments have expired or been terminated and the principal of and interest on each Loan and all fees payable hereunder shall have been paid in full and all Letters of Credit and Acceptances shall have expired or terminated and all LC Disbursements shall have been reimbursed.

(b) The  Guarantee of each Subsidiary Guarantor set forth in this Article III shall be automatically released if any Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary, in each case as a result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder (as certified in writing delivered to the Administrative Agent by an authorized officer of the Company).

(c) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 3.10, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Subsidiary Guarantor, at such Subsidiary Guarantor’s expense, all documents that such Subsidiary Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 3.10 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.

Each of the Company and the Subsidiary Borrowers represents and warrants (as to itself and each of its Subsidiaries) to the Lenders that:

SECTION 4.01 Organization; Powers.  Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required.

SECTION 4.04 Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change.

(a)     Financial Condition. The Company has heretofore furnished to the Lenders (including without limitation via filings with the SEC) (i) the consolidated balance sheet and statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Company as of and for the fiscal years ended July 3, 2016, July 2, 2017 and, July 1, 2018 and June 30, 2019, in each case as reported on by BDO USA, LLP, and (ii) the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of September 30, 2018, December 30, 2018, and March 3129, 2019, December 29, 2019, and March 29, 2020, and the related unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the applicable periods ended on such dates.  Such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of operations and cash flows of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of such dates and for such periods in accordance with GAAP.  There are no liabilities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, fixed or contingent, which are material in relation to the consolidated financial condition of the Company that are not reflected in the most recent consolidated financial statements of the Company delivered pursuant to this Section or Section 6.01(a) or (b) or in the notes thereto, other than liabilities arising in the ordinary course of business since the date of such financial statements.

(b)     No Material Adverse Change.  Since July 1June 30, 20182019, there has not occurred any event, development or circumstance that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Schedule 1.01(b) contains a true and complete list of each Mortgaged Property.

(b)     Intellectual Property.  Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material to its business, and the use thereof by the Company and its Subsidiaries does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person except for any such infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 9.01 Appointment and Authorization of Agents.

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

The Person serving as the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

The Administrative 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, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances provided in Section 10.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.  The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances provided in Section 10.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Company or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein, (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 V or elsewhere herein or therein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed (including by Electronic Signature) or sent by the proper Person.  The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for a 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.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub agents appointed by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent and any such sub agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Company.  Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint a successor.  If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a Lender with an office in New York, New York or an Affiliate of a Lender.  Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.  The fees payable by the Company to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor.  After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender 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.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Joint Bookrunners, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Syndication Agent and the Co-Documentation Agents named on the cover page of this Agreement and the Arrangers (as defined in the First Amendment) shall not have any duties or liabilities under this Agreement, except in their capacity, if any, as Lenders.

SECTION 9.02 Certain ERISA Matters.

(a)     Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Company or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(i)     such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments, or this Agreement,

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

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

SECTION 10.01 Notices.

SECTION 10.02 Waivers; Amendments.

(a)     No Deemed Waivers; Remedies Cumulative.  No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power.  The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have.  No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by a Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan, issuance of a Letter of Credit or creation of an Acceptance shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b)     Amendments.  Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Loan Parties and the Required Lenders (or, in the case of any such waiver, amendment or modification relating to Letters of Credit or Acceptances, the Required Revolving Credit Lenders) or by the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders (or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable); provided that no such agreement shall:

(i)     increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby;

(iii)     postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby;

(iv)     change Section 2.20(b), (c) or (d) or Section 5.09 of the Security Agreement in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender or other Secured Party affected thereby;

(v)     change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of the term “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby; or

(vi)     release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their guarantee obligations under Article III (except as otherwise provided therein) or all or substantially all of the collateral, in each case without the written consent of each Lender;

Except as otherwise provided in this Section with respect to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent may, with the prior consent of the Required Lenders (but not otherwise), consent to any modification, supplement or waiver under any of the Security Documents; provided that without the prior consent of each Lender, the Administrative Agent shall not (except as provided herein or in the Security Documents) release all or substantially all of the collateral or otherwise terminate all or substantially all of the Liens under any Security Document providing for collateral security, except that no such consent shall be required, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, to release any Lien covering property (and to release any such Guarantor) that is the subject of either a disposition of property or a release of a Guarantor permitted hereunder or a disposition or release to which the Required Lenders have consented.

(c)     Reimbursement by Lenders.  To the extent that the Company fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender in its capacity as such.

(d)     Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower shall assert, and each Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan, Letter of Credit or Acceptance or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(i)     Participations Generally.  Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant.  Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17, 2.18 and 2.19 (subject to the requirements and limitations of such Sections, including the requirement to provide the forms and certificates pursuant to Section 2.19(e)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.20(c) as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans, LC Disbursements or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Loans, LC Disbursements or other obligations under this Agreement), except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Loan, LC Disbursement or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender, each Loan Party and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(ii)     Limitations on Rights of Participants.  A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.17 or 2.19 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, it being understood that the Company may withhold its consent if such participation could be reasonably expected to result in any increase in any Borrower’s payment obligations under Section 2.17 or 2.19).  No Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.19 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.19(e) as though it were a Lender.

(d)     Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

SECTION 10.05 Survival.  All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrowers herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans, issuance of any Letters of Credit and creation of any Acceptances, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit or any Acceptance is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated.  The provisions of Sections 2.17, 2.18, 2.19, 3.03 and 10.03 and Article IX shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit, Acceptances and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 10.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.  Except as provided in Section 5.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of (x) this Agreement by email or telecopy, (y) any other Loan Document and/or (z) any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered pursuant to Section 10.01), certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement., such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, electronic deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic Signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent and pursuant to procedures approved by it (it being understood that the Administrative Agent hereby consents to the use of DocuSign for purposes of providing Electronic Signatures to any Loan Document or any Ancillary Document to the extent the Loans Parties comply with the verification measures requested by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s internal policies and procedures as communicated to the Company from time to time); provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept any Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely, so long as such reliance is not the product of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person, on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Loan Party without further verification thereof and (ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be reasonably promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby (i) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, Electronic Signatures transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means and/or any electronic images of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, (ii) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, such other Loan Document and/or such Ancillary Document, respectively, including with respect to any signature pages thereto and (iii) waives any claim against the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger, any Joint Bookrunner, the Syndication Agent, any Co-Documentation Agent, any Arranger (as defined in the First Amendment), any Issuing Lender and any Lender, and any Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons, for any liabilities arising solely from the Administrative Agent’s and/or any Lender’s reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures and/or transmissions by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page, including any liabilities arising as a result of the failure of the Borrower and/or any other Loan Party to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature, so long as such reliance or use is not the product of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person.

SECTION 10.07 Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 10.08 Right of Setoff.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any of and all the obligations of any Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured; provided that if any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (i) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement 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 Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders and (ii) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of set off.  The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
