Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Company, absent manifest error; provided, that the failure to make any such

50

recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Commitments or Company’s Obligations in respect of any applicable Loans; and provided further, in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the recordations in the Register shall govern, absent manifest error.

(b)    Register. Administrative Agent shall maintain at one of its offices a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Term Lenders and Revolving Lenders and the principal amounts and stated interest of the Term Loan Commitments, Revolving Commitments, [**] Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, Additional Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, Term Loans, Revolving Loans, [**] Delayed Draw Term Loans, and Additional Delayed Draw Term Loans of each Term Lender or Revolving Lender, as applicable, from time to time (the “Register”). The Register shall be available for inspection by Company or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior written notice. Administrative Agent shall record in the Register the Term Loan Commitments, Revolving Commitments, [**] Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, Additional Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, the Term Loans, the Revolving Loans, [**] Delayed Draw Term Loans, and Additional Delayed Draw Term Loans and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Term Loans, Revolving Loans, [**] Delayed Draw Term Loans, and Additional Delayed Draw Term Loans and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Company and each Lender, absent manifest error; provided, Administrative Agent may correct any failure to make any such recordation or any error in such recordation without compromising any Lender’s Term Loan Commitments, Revolving Commitments, [**] Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, or Additional Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments or Company’s Obligations in respect of any Term Loan, Revolving Loan, [**] Delayed Draw Term Loan, or Additional Delayed Draw Term Loan. Company hereby designates the entity serving as Administrative Agent to serve as Company’s non-fiduciary agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 2.5 and Section 10.6, and Company hereby agrees that, to the extent such entity serves in such capacity, the entity serving as Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates shall constitute “Indemnitees.”

(c)    Notes. If so requested by any Lender by written notice to Company at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Company shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 10.6) on the Closing Date (or, if such notice is delivered later than two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, promptly after Company’s receipt of such notice) a Note or Notes to evidence such Lender’s Term Loan, [**] Delayed Draw Term Loan, Additional Delayed Draw Term Loan, or Revolving Loan, as the case may be.

2.6    Interest on Loans; Fees.

(a)    Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Loans shall bear interest on the unpaid outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable Credit Date through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) thereof as follows:

(i)    if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Term Loan Margin or Applicable Revolving Loan Margin, as applicable; or

(ii)    if a LIBOR Rate Loan, at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Term Loan Margin or Applicable Revolving Loan Margin, as applicable.

(b)    Reserved.

51

(c)    Company shall incur at issuance and renewal of each Letter of Credit, a Letter of Credit fee of [**]% of the amount of such Letter of Credit (collectively, the “Letter of Credit Fee”), which Letter of Credit Fee shall be payable to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Revolving Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, in arrears on the last Business Day of each Fiscal Quarter, and which shall be in addition to any fronting fees and commissions, other fees, charges and expenses that are charged generally by Issuing Bank with respect to letters of credit.

(d)    The basis for determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan, and the Interest Period with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan, shall be selected by Company and notified to Administrative Agent and Lenders pursuant to the applicable Funding/Issuance Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be. If on any day a Loan is outstanding with respect to which a Funding/Issuance Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice has not been delivered to Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest, then for that day such Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan.

(e)    In connection with LIBOR Rate Loans there shall be no more than seven (7) Interest Periods outstanding at any time. With respect to any Loans, in the event Company fails to specify between a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Rate Loan in the applicable Funding/Issuance Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, such Loan (if outstanding as a LIBOR Rate Loan) will be automatically converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then-current Interest Period for such Loan (or if outstanding as a Base Rate Loan will remain as, or (if not then outstanding) will be made as, a Base Rate Loan). With respect to any Loans, in the event Company fails to specify an Interest Period for any LIBOR Rate Loan in the applicable Funding/Issuance Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, Company shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month. Promptly on each Interest Rate Determination Date, Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the LIBOR Rate Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Company and each Lender that holds a portion of the Loans.

(f)    Interest on the Term Loans shall be paid to the Administrative Agent, in cash in arrears on and to (i) each Interest Payment Date applicable to the relevant Term Loans, (ii) maturity, including final maturity, and (iii) upon any prepayment of the Term Loans, whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued but unpaid on the amount being prepaid.

(g)    Interest on the Revolving Loans shall be paid to Administrative Agent, in cash in arrears on and to (i) each Interest Payment Date applicable to the Revolving Loans, and (ii) at maturity, including final maturity.

(h)    Interest on the [**] Delayed Draw Term Loans shall be paid to the Administrative Agent, in cash in arrears on and to (i) each Interest Payment Date applicable to the relevant [**] Delayed Draw Term Loans, (ii) maturity, including final maturity, and (iii) upon any prepayment of the [**] Delayed Draw Term Loans, whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued but unpaid on the amount being prepaid.

(i)    Interest on the Additional Delayed Draw Term Loans shall be paid to the Administrative Agent, in cash in arrears on and to (i) each Interest Payment Date applicable to the relevant Additional Delayed Draw Term Loans, (ii) maturity, including final maturity, and (iii) upon any prepayment of the Additional Delayed Draw Term Loans, whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued but unpaid on the amount being prepaid.

52

(j)    Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a LIBOR Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such LIBOR Rate Loan to such Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a LIBOR Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such LIBOR Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided, if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

2.7    Conversion/Continuation.

(a)    Subject to Section 2.16 and so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, Company shall have the option:

(i)    to convert at any time all or any part of any Loan equal to $500,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount from one Type of Loan to another Type of Loan; provided, a LIBOR Rate Loan may only be converted on the expiration of the Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan unless Company shall pay all amounts due under Section 2.16 in connection with any such conversion; or

(ii)    upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any LIBOR Rate Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Loan equal to $500,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount as a LIBOR Rate Loan.

(b)    Company shall deliver a Conversion/Continuation Notice to Administrative Agent no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan) and at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a LIBOR Rate Loan). Except as otherwise provided herein, a Conversion/Continuation Notice for conversion to, or continuation of, any LIBOR Rate Loans shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and Company shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith.

2.8    Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the principal amount of all Loans outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments on the Loans or any fees or other amounts owed hereunder, shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable bankruptcy laws) payable on demand at a rate that is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the applicable Loans (or, in the case of any such fees and other amounts, at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans) (the “Default Rate”); provided, in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, upon the expiration of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such increase in interest rate is effective such LIBOR Rate Loans shall thereupon become Base Rate Loans and shall thereafter bear interest payable upon demand at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.8 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Administrative Agent or any Lender.

53

2.9    Fees.

(a)    Company agrees to pay to Administrative Agent the fees and other amounts set forth in the Fee Letter.

(b)    Company shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, in arrears, on the first Business Day of each calendar month from and after the Closing Date and ending with the calendar month that includes the Revolving Loan Calendar Maturity Date, an unused line fee in an amount equal to [**]% per annum times the result of (i) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments, less (ii) the average daily outstanding balance of the Revolving Loans during the immediately preceding month (or portion thereof).

(c)    All payments by Company of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations in respect of the Revolving Loans and Revolving LC Obligations shall (unless, with respect to Revolving LC Obligations, it is provided otherwise in a governing Issuer Document) be made in Dollars in immediately available funds, without defense, recoupment, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to Administrative Agent, for the account of Revolving Lenders, not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date due via wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to such wire instructions as may be designated by Administrative Agent from time to time; funds received by Administrative Agent after that time on such due date may in the Administrative Agent’s discretion be deemed to have been paid by Company on the next Business Day.

(d)    All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan (other than voluntary prepayments of Revolving Loans) shall be accompanied by payment of accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid.

(e)    To the extent received by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Term Lender at such address as such Lender shall indicate in writing, such Term Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due with respect thereto, including, without limitation, all fees payable with respect thereto. To the extent received by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Revolving Lender at such address as such Lender shall indicate in writing, such Revolving Lender’s applicable share of all payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due with respect thereto, including, without limitation, all fees payable with respect thereto

(f)    Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions hereof, if any Conversion/Continuation Notice is withdrawn as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans in lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any LIBOR Rate Loans, Administrative Agent shall give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter.

(g)    Subject to the provisos set forth in the definition of “Interest Period,” whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the immediately succeeding Business Day.

(h)    Administrative Agent may deem any payment by or on behalf of Company hereunder that is not made in same day funds prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) to be a non-conforming payment. Any such payment shall not be deemed to have been received by Administrative Agent until the later of (i) the time such funds become available funds, and (ii) the applicable next Business Day. Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice to Company and each applicable Lender (confirmed in writing) if any payment it has received is non-conforming. Any non-conforming payment may constitute or become a Default or Event of Default in accordance with the terms of Section 8.1(a). Interest shall continue to accrue on any principal as to which a non-conforming payment is made until such funds become available funds (but in no event less than the period from the date of such payment to the next succeeding applicable Business Day) at the Default Rate determined pursuant to Section 2.8 from the date such amount was due and payable until the date such amount is paid in full.

60

(i)    If an Application Event shall have occurred, all payments made hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall be remitted to Administrative Agent and all payments or proceeds received by any Agent hereunder or under any other Credit Document in respect of any of the Obligations (including, but not limited to, Obligations arising under any Interest Rate Agreement or Currency Agreement that are owing to any Lender or Lender Counterparty), including, but not limited to all proceeds received by any Agent in respect of any sale, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral, shall, subject to Section 2.20 with respect to Defaulting Lenders, be applied in full or in part as follows: first, to the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each Agent (including the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of their respective counsel and agents) and all other expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by any Agent in connection therewith, and all amounts for which any Agent is entitled to indemnification hereunder or under any Collateral Document (in its capacity as an Agent and not as a Lender) and all amounts paid to third parties by any Agent under any Collateral Document for the account of the applicable Grantor, and to the payment of all costs and expenses paid or incurred by any Agent in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under any Collateral Document, all in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof, and to the payment of any and all other indemnities or costs that constitute Obligations then due to any Agent under any Credit Document, until paid in full; second, to pay fees or premiums then due to Agents (ratably among them) under the Credit Documents until paid in full; third, to pay all interest due in respect of all Protective Advances, until paid in full; fourth, to pay all principal of all Protective Advances, until paid in full; fifth, ratably, to pay any costs, expenses or indemnities then due to any of the Lenders under the Credit Documents until paid in full; sixth, ratably, to pay fees or premiums (including any fees payable under the Fee Letter) then due to any of the Lenders under the Credit Documents until paid in full; seventh, ratably, to pay interest accrued in respect of the Revolving Loans and Revolving LC Obligations until paid in full, eighth, ratably, (x) to pay the principal of all Revolving Loans, all Revolving LC Obligations (excluding the undrawn amount of any Letters of Credit) and all Obligations in respect of Ancillary Services then outstanding (and, with respect to payments on the Revolving Loans, together with a concurrent permanent reduction in the Revolving Commitments), until paid in full and (y) for contingent Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit and Ancillary Services (with respect to Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, to be satisfied by providing Letter of Credit Collateralization thereof and in respect of Ancillary Services, to be satisfied by providing Ancillary Services Collateralization thereof) as certified by the Issuing Bank or the Ancillary Services Provider (as applicable) to be outstanding (and, with respect to collateralization of Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, together with a concurrent permanent reduction in the Revolving Commitments), ninth, to pay interest accrued in respect of the Term Loans, [**] Delayed Draw Term Loans, and Additional Delayed Draw Term Loans until paid in full, tenth, to pay the principal of all Term Loans, [**] Delayed Draw Term Loans and Additional Delayed Draw Term Loans until paid in full, eleventh, to the payment of all other Obligations; and twelfth, to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to the payment to or upon the order of Company or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. For purposes of this Section 2.14(i) (other than tier “eleventh” hereof), “paid in full” means payment in cash or immediately available funds of all amounts owing under the Credit Documents, Ancillary Services Agreements, Interest Rate Agreements and Currency Agreements according to the terms thereof, including loan fees, service fees, professional fees, interest (and specifically including interest accrued after the commencement of any insolvency proceeding), default interest, interest on interest, and expense reimbursements, whether or not same would be or is allowed or disallowed in whole or in part in any insolvency proceeding, except to the extent that default or overdue interest (but not any other interest) and loan fees, each arising from or related to a default, are disallowed in any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding; provided, however, that for the purposes of tier “eleventh” hereof, “paid in full” means payment in cash or immediately available funds of all amounts owing under the Credit Documents, Ancillary Services Agreements, Interest Rate Agreements and Currency Agreements according to the terms thereof, including loan fees, service fees, professional fees, interest (and specifically including interest accrued after the commencement of any insolvency proceeding), default interest, interest on interest, and expense reimbursements, whether or not the same would be or is allowed or disallowed in whole or in part in any insolvency proceeding.

61

(j)    Administrative Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the name of Company (the “Revolving Loan Account”) on which Company will be charged with all Revolving Loans made by the Revolving Lenders to Company or for Company’s account, the Letters of Credit issued or arranged by Issuing Bank for Company’s account, and with all other payment Obligations in respect of the Revolving Commitments hereunder or under the other Credit Documents, including, accrued interest, fees, charges, costs and expenses. In accordance with Section 2.14(c), the Revolving Loan Account will be credited with all payments received by Administrative Agent from Company or for Company’s account for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders. Company hereby authorizes Administrative Agent, from time to time upon one Business Day prior notice to Company (or without notice if the relevant amount is a draft made by Issuing Bank with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or arranged hereunder), to, at its option, charge to the Revolving Loan Account as and when due and payable, all principal, interest, fees, charges, costs and expenses payable hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents; provided that if any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Administrative Agent may not charge the Revolving Loan Account without the consent of the Requisite Revolving Lenders. All amounts (including principal, interest, fees, costs, expenses, or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Credit Document) charged to the Revolving Loan Account shall thereupon constitute Revolving Loans hereunder, shall constitute Obligations hereunder, and shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans.

2.15    Ratable Sharing. Lenders hereby agree among themselves that if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided, if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Company or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Company expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set-off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by Company to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder.

2.16    Making or Maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans.

(a)    Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. In the event that Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loans, that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market adequate and fair means

62

do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loans on the basis provided for in the definition of Adjusted LIBOR Rate, Administrative Agent shall on such date give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Company and each Lender of such determination, whereupon (i) no Loans may be made as, or converted to, LIBOR Rate Loans until such time as Administrative Agent notifies Company and Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, and (ii) any Funding/Issuance Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice given by Company with respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by Company and such Loans shall be made as Base Rate Loans.

(b)    LIBOR Cessation. If at any time the London Interbank Offered Rate ceases to exist or the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that the circumstances set forth in clause (a) above have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or the circumstances in clause (a) above have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the London Interbank Offered Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the London Interbank Offered Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and Holdings shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for fixed periods for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to the Credit Documents to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes as may be applicable which are agreed by Company and the Administrative Agent at such time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Credit Documents, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to the Credit Documents so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Requisite Lenders stating that they object to such amendment.

(c)    Illegality or Impracticability of LIBOR Rate Loans. In the event that on any date any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be made only after consultation with Company and Administrative Agent) that the making, maintaining or continuation of its LIBOR Rate Loans (i) has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), or (ii) has become impracticable, as a result of contingencies occurring after the date hereof which materially and adversely affect the London interbank market or the position of such Lender in that market, then, and in any such event, such Lender shall be an “Affected Lender” and it shall on that day give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Company and Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Thereafter (1) the obligation of the Affected Lender to make Loans as, or to convert Loans to, LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until such notice shall be withdrawn by the Affected Lender, (2) to the extent such determination by the Affected Lender relates to a LIBOR Rate Loan then being requested by Company pursuant to a Funding/Issuance Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Affected Lender shall make such Loan as (or continue such Loan as or convert such Loan to, as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan, (3) the Affected Lender’s obligation to maintain its outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans (the “Affected Loans”) shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law, and (4) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described above relates to a LIBOR Rate Loan then being requested by Company pursuant to a Funding/Issuance Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, Company shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 2.16(c), to rescind such Funding/Issuance Notice or Conversion/Continuation

63

Notice as to all Lenders by giving notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of rescission Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in this Section 2.16(b) shall affect the obligation of any Lender other than an Affected Lender to make or maintain Loans as, or to convert Loans to, LIBOR Rate Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.

(d)    Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. Company shall compensate each Lender, upon written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all reasonable and documented losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid or due and payable by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its LIBOR Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) a borrowing of any LIBOR Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Funding/Issuance Notice or a telephonic request for borrowing, or a conversion to or continuation of any LIBOR Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice or a telephonic request for conversion or continuation; (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment of, or any conversion of, any of its LIBOR Rate Loans occurs on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or (iii) if any prepayment of any of its LIBOR Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by Company.

(e)    Booking of LIBOR Rate Loans. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer LIBOR Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of such Lender.

(f)    Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Rate Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.16 and under Section 2.17 shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded each of its relevant LIBOR Rate Loans through the purchase of a LIBOR deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of Adjusted LIBOR Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such LIBOR Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such LIBOR deposit from an offshore office of such Lender to a domestic office of such Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Documents, each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 2.16 and under Section 2.17.

2.17    Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.

(a)    Compensation For Increased Costs and Taxes. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.18 (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Lender or Issuing Bank shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or application thereof (including the introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order), or any determination of a court or governmental authority, in each case that becomes effective after the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender or Issuing Bank with any guideline, request or directive issued or made after the date hereof by any central bank or other governmental or quasi-governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law): (i) subjects such Lender or Issuing Bank (or its applicable lending office) to any additional Tax (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, (C) Taxes that are imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated) or that are franchise Taxes or branch profits Taxes and that are imposed as a result of a present or former connection between such Lender

64

or Issuing Bank and the jurisdiction imposing such tax (other than connections arising from such Lender or Issuing Bank having executed, delivered, become a party to, performed its obligations under, received payments under, received or perfected a security interest under, engaged in any other transaction pursuant to or enforced any Credit Document, or sold or assigned an interest in any Loan or Credit Document)) with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents or any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder or any payments to such Lender or Issuing Bank (or its applicable lending office) of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder; (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender or Issuing Bank (other than any such reserve or other requirements with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans that are reflected in the definition of Adjusted LIBOR Rate); or (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Lender or Issuing Bank (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations hereunder or the London interbank market; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans or other Credit Extensions hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Bank (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, Company shall promptly pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender or Issuing Bank in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder. Such Lender or Issuing Bank shall deliver to Company (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender or Issuing Bank under this Section 2.17(a), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

(b)    Capital Adequacy Adjustment. In the event that any Lender or Issuing Bank shall have determined that the adoption, effectiveness, phase-in or applicability after the Closing Date of any law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender or Issuing Bank (or its applicable lending office) with any guideline, request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or Issuing Bank or any corporation controlling such Lender or Issuing Bank as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s Loans, Letters of Credit or Revolving Commitments or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans or Letters of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Bank or such controlling corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase-in, applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or Issuing Bank or such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within five Business Days after receipt by Company from such Lender or Issuing Bank of the statement referred to in the next sentence, Company shall pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or such controlling corporation on an after-tax basis for such reduction. Such Lender or Issuing Bank shall deliver to Company (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to Lender or Issuing Bank under this Section 2.17(b), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

For purposes of this Section 2.17 and for all other purposes pursuant to this Agreement, it is agreed that (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, guidelines and directives made thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules,

65

guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or any United States or foreign regulatory authority, shall, in each case, be deemed to be enacted, adopted, issued, phased in or effective after the date of this Agreement regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued, phased in or effective.

2.18    Taxes; Withholding, etc.

(a)    Payments to Be Free and Clear. All sums payable by any Credit Party hereunder and under the other Credit Documents shall (except to the extent required by law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Tax (other than a Tax on the overall net income of any Lender) imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or within the United States of America or any political subdivision in or of the United States of America or any other jurisdiction from or to which a payment is made by or on behalf of any Credit Party or by any federation or organization of which the United States of America or any such jurisdiction is a member at the time of payment. For purposes of this Section 2.18, the term “law” shall include FATCA.

(b)    Withholding of Taxes. If any Credit Party or any other Person is required by law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) to make any deduction or withholding on account of any such Tax from any sum paid or payable by a Withholding Agent to Administrative Agent or any Lender under any of the Credit Documents: (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding; (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall pay any such Tax before the date on which penalties attach thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on any Credit Party) for its own account or (if that liability is imposed on Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be) on behalf of and in the name of Administrative Agent or such Lender; (iii) to the extent the relevant deduction, withholding or payment includes any Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by such Credit Party in respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding or payment is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of any deduction, withholding or payment for any Indemnified Taxes, Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction, withholding or payment for any Indemnified Taxes been required or made; and (iv) as soon as practicable after paying any Tax which it is required by clause (ii) above to pay, Company or Administrative Agent shall deliver to the other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the other affected parties of such deduction, withholding or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority.

(c)    Payment of Other Taxes. The Credit Parties shall timely pay to any relevant Government Authority, or reimburse and indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender for the payment of Other Taxes.

(d)    Indemnification by Company. The Credit Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify Administrative Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by Administrative Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Government Authority so long as and to the extent such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is 180 days prior to the date on which Administrative Agent or such Lender first made demand therefor; provided, that if the event giving rise to such costs or reductions has retroactive effect, such 180 day period shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Company by a Lender or Administrative Agent shall be presumed correct absent manifest error.

66

(e)    Status of Lenders. Any Lender that is a United States person within the meaning of Section 7701(A)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for transmission to the Company on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent or the Company), one executed original of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal back-up withholding tax. Each Non-U.S. Lender that is entitled to a reduction or exemption from United States withholding tax shall deliver to Administrative Agent for transmission to the Company, on or prior to the Closing Date (or date in which it becomes a party to the Agreement) either: (i) one original of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, if applicable) or W-8ECI (or any successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by Company, or (ii) if such Lender is not a “bank” or other Person described in Section 881(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and cannot deliver Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI pursuant to clause (i) above, a Certificate Regarding Non-Bank Status together with one original of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, if applicable) (or any successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by Company. Each Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to this Section 2.18(e) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Lender shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent for transmission to Company one new original of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, if applicable) or W-8ECI, or a Certificate Regarding Non-Bank Status and one original of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, if applicable) (or any successor forms), as the case may be, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by Company, or notify Administrative Agent and Company of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence. If a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Company and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Company and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

2.19    Obligation to Mitigate. Each of each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender or Issuing Bank responsible for administering its Loans or Letters of Credit becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender or Issuing Bank to receive payments under Section 2.16, 2.17 or 2.18, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (a) make, issue, fund or maintain its Credit Extensions, including any Affected Loans, through another office of such Lender or Issuing Bank, or (b) take such other reasonable measures, if as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.16, 2.17 or 2.18 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender or Issuing Bank in its good faith business discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Revolving Commitments or Credit

67

Extensions through such other office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise materially adversely affect such Revolving Commitments or Credit Extensions or the interests of such Lender or Issuing Bank; provided, such Lender or Issuing Bank will not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this Section 2.19 unless Company agrees to pay all reasonable documented out-of-pocket incremental expenses incurred by such Lender or Issuing Bank as a result of utilizing such other office as described above. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by Company pursuant to this Section 2.19 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender or Issuing Bank to Company (with a copy to Administrative Agent) shall be presumed correct absent manifest error.

2.20    Defaulting Lenders. At any time that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” for purposes of voting on any matters (including the granting of any consents or waivers) with respect to any of the Credit Documents. In addition, any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 8.1 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to Administrative Agent by such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.6), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank hereunder; second, as Company may request (so long as no Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement; third, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Company, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; fourth, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to Company as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Company against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (A) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (B) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender.

Upon the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender and the termination of such Terminated Lender’s Revolving Commitments, if any, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender.

4.2    Capital Stock and Ownership. The Capital Stock of each of Holdings and its Subsidiaries has been duly authorized and validly issued and is fully paid and non-assessable. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.2, as of the date hereof, there is no existing option, warrant, call, right, commitment or other agreement to which Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries is a party requiring, and there is no membership interest or other Capital Stock of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries outstanding which upon conversion or exchange would require, the issuance by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries of any additional membership interests or other Capital Stock of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or other Securities convertible into, exchangeable for or evidencing the right to subscribe for or purchase, a membership interest or other Capital Stock of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries.

Schedule 4.16 contains a true, correct and complete list of all the Material Contracts in effect on the Closing Date, and, together with any updates provided pursuant to Section 5.1(l), all such Material Contracts are in full force and effect and no defaults currently exist thereunder (other than as described in Schedule 4.16 or in such updates).

4.17    Governmental Regulation. Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to regulation under the Federal Power Act or the Investment Company Act of 1940 or under any other federal or state statute or regulation which may limit its ability to incur Indebtedness or which may otherwise render all or any portion of the Obligations unenforceable. Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries is a “registered investment company” or a company “controlled” by a “registered investment company” or a “principal underwriter” of a “registered investment company” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940.

77

4.18    Margin Stock. Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock. No part of the proceeds of the Loans made to such Credit Party will be used to purchase or carry any such Margin Stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such Margin Stock or for any purpose that violates, or is inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

4.19    Employee Matters. Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged in any unfair labor practice that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is (a) no unfair labor practice complaint pending against Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, or to the best knowledge of Holdings and Company, threatened against any of them before the National Labor Relations Board and no grievance or arbitration proceeding arising out of or under any collective bargaining agreement that is so pending against Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or to the best knowledge of Holdings and Company, threatened against any of them, (b) no strike or work stoppage in existence or, to the best knowledge of Holdings and Company, threatened against Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, and (c) to the best knowledge of Holdings and Company, no union representation question existing with respect to the employees of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries and, to the best knowledge of Holdings and Company, no union organization activity that is taking place, except (with respect to any matter specified in clause (a), (b) or (c) above, either individually or in the aggregate) as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.20    Employee Benefit Plans. Except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (a) Holdings, each of its Subsidiaries and each of their respective ERISA Affiliates are in compliance with all applicable provisions and requirements of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan, and have performed all their obligations under each Employee Benefit Plan; (b) each Employee Benefit Plan which is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code has received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service indicating that such Employee Benefit Plan is so qualified and nothing has occurred subsequent to the issuance of such determination letter which would cause such Employee Benefit Plan to lose its qualified status; (c) no liability under Title IV of ERISA to the PBGC (other than required premium payments), the Internal Revenue Service, any Employee Benefit Plan or any trust established under Title IV of ERISA has been or is reasonably expected to be incurred by Holdings, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates; (d) no ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur; and (e) except to the extent required under Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code or similar state laws, no Employee Benefit Plan provides health or welfare benefits (through the purchase of insurance or otherwise) for any retired or former employee of Holdings, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates. The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each Pension Plan sponsored, maintained or contributed to by Holdings, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates (determined as of the end of the most recent plan year on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in the most recent actuarial valuation for such Pension Plan) did not exceed the aggregate current value of the assets of such Pension Plan. As of the most recent valuation date for each Multiemployer Plan for which the actuarial report is available, the potential liability of Holdings, its Subsidiaries and their respective ERISA Affiliates for a complete withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan (within the meaning of Section 4203 of ERISA), when aggregated with such potential liability for a complete withdrawal from all Multiemployer Plans, based on information available pursuant to Section 4221(e) of ERISA is zero. Holdings, each of its Subsidiaries and each of their ERISA Affiliates have complied with the requirements of Section 515 of ERISA with respect to each Multiemployer Plan and are not in material “default” (as defined in Section 4219(c)(5) of ERISA) with respect to payments to a Multiemployer Plan.

78

4.21    Certain Fees. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.21, no broker’s or finder’s fee or commission will be payable with respect hereto or any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

4.22    Solvency. On the Closing Date and on each other Credit Date, after giving effect to the Credit Extension to occur on such date, the Credit Parties, on a consolidated basis, are and will be Solvent.

4.23    Compliance with Statutes, etc.

(a)    Except as set forth on Schedule 4.23, each of Holdings and its Subsidiaries is in material compliance with all applicable statutes, rules, regulations and orders of, and all applicable restrictions imposed by, all Governmental Authorities, in respect of the conduct of its business and the ownership of its property (excluding Financial Services Laws, but including compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws with respect to any Real Estate Asset or governing its business and the requirements of any Governmental Authorizations issued under such Environmental Laws with respect to any such Real Estate Asset or the operations of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries), except such non-compliance that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Since June 30, 2015, no Credit Party has received any written notice or any communication (including, without limitation, any oral communication) from any Governmental Authority alleging that such Credit Party is not in compliance with applicable law, rules, regulations and orders or threatening the security, force and effect of any Governmental Authorizations issued to such Credit Party, except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b)    Each of Holdings and each of its Subsidiaries is and, since June 30, 2015 has been, in material compliance with all applicable Financial Services Laws in respect of the conduct of its business, except as set forth on Schedule 4.23. Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries has, since June 30, 2015, received any written inquiry, notice of investigation, notice of violation, administrative complaint or has been subject to any enforcement proceeding, or entered into any settlement or consent order with any Governmental Authority relating to Financial Services Laws, nor is any such inquiry or proceeding pending, expected or, to the knowledge of Holdings or its Subsidiaries, threatened, except as set forth on Schedule 4.23 (provided, that the foregoing shall not apply to any correspondence provided by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries to any Governmental Authority in connection with such Person obtaining or maintaining a Governmental Authorization in the ordinary course of its business or correspondence received by any Governmental Authority in connection with ordinary course examinations so long as such correspondence is not provided in connection with assertions or allegations of non-compliance by Holdings or its Subsidiaries with any applicable laws where such non-compliance could reasonably be expected to have an adverse impact that is not immaterial on the business or operations of Holdings and its Subsidiaries).

(c)    Each Credit Party holds, in full force and effect, all Governmental Authorizations required under applicable law necessary to conduct its business. There are no such Governmental Authorizations held in the name of any Person (other than a Credit Party) on behalf of any of the Credit Parties. Each of Holdings and its Subsidiaries is in compliance in all material respects with all Governmental Authorizations required under applicable Financial Services Laws (including, without limitation, the registration required for money services businesses by the U.S. Department of Treasury Financial Crimes Enforcement Network and U.S. State money transmitter licenses under Financial Services Laws), for such Person lawfully to own, lease, manage or operate each business currently owned, leased, managed or operated by such Person. No condition exists or event has occurred which, in itself or with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would result in the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or non-renewal of any such Governmental Authorizations, in each case, that could reasonably be expected to have an adverse impact that is not immaterial on the business or operations of Holdings and its Subsidiaries.

79

4.24    Disclosure. No representation or warranty of any Credit Party contained in any Credit Document or in any other documents, certificates or written statements furnished to Lenders by or on behalf of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact (known to Holdings or Company, in the case of any document not furnished by either of them) necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which the same were made. Any projections and pro forma financial information contained in such materials are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by Holdings or Company to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by Lenders that such projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such projections may differ from the projected results. There are no facts known (or which should upon the reasonable exercise of diligence be known) to Holdings or Company (other than matters of a general economic nature) that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and that have not been disclosed herein or in such other documents, certificates and statements furnished to Lenders for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

4.25    OFAC, Money Laundering Laws, Etc. No Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any applicable Sanctions. No Credit Party nor any of its Subsidiaries nor, to the knowledge of such Credit Party, any director, officer, employee, agent or Affiliate of such Credit Party or such Subsidiary (a) is a Sanctioned Person or a Sanctioned Entity, (b) has any assets located in Sanctioned Entities, or (c) derives revenues from investments in, or transactions with Sanctioned Persons or Sanctioned Entities. Each of the Credit Parties and its Subsidiaries has implemented and maintains in effect policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance with all applicable Sanctions, anti-corruption laws and anti-money laundering Laws. Each of the Credit Parties and its Subsidiaries, and to the knowledge of each such Credit Party, each director, officer, employee, agent and Affiliate of each such Credit Party and each such Subsidiary, is in compliance with all applicable Sanctions and is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable anti-corruption laws and anti-money laundering laws. No proceeds of any Loan made or Letter of Credit issued hereunder will be used to fund any operations in, finance any investments or activities in, or make any payments to, a Sanctioned Person or a Sanctioned Entity, or otherwise used in any manner that would result in a violation of any applicable Sanction, anti-corruption law or anti-money laundering law by any Person.

84

not in connection with assertions or allegations of non-compliance by Holdings or its Subsidiaries with any applicable laws, where such non-compliance could reasonably be expected to result in an adverse impact that is not immaterial on the business or operations of Holdings and its Subsidiaries). Concurrently with the delivery to Administrative Agent of any such notice or request described in the foregoing sentence, Holdings shall provide to Administrative Agent a detailed report regarding what action Company has taken, is taking and proposes to take with respect thereto.

5.2    Existence. Except as otherwise permitted under Section 6.9, each Credit Party will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence and all rights and franchises, licenses and permits material to its business; provided, no Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to preserve any such existence, right or franchise, licenses and permits if such Person’s board of directors (or similar governing body) shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of such Person, and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to such Person.

5.3    Payment of Taxes and Claims. Each Credit Party will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, pay all Taxes imposed upon it or any of its properties or assets or in respect of any of its income, businesses or franchises before any penalty or fine accrues thereon, and all claims (including claims for labor, services, materials and supplies) for sums that have become due and payable and that by law have or may become a Lien upon any of its properties or assets, prior to the time when any penalty or fine shall be incurred with respect thereto; provided, no such Tax or claim need be paid if it is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings promptly instituted and diligently conducted, so long as (a) adequate reserve or other appropriate provision, as shall be required in conformity with GAAP shall have been made therefor, (b) in the case of a Tax or claim which has or may become a Lien against any of

85

the Collateral, such contest proceedings operate to stay the sale of any portion of the Collateral to satisfy such Tax or claim, and (c) while any such protest is pending, there will be no impairment of the enforceability, validity, or priority of any of Collateral Agent’s Liens. No Credit Party will, nor will it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, file or consent to the filing of any consolidated income tax return with any Person (other than Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries).

5.4    Maintenance of Properties. Each Credit Party will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain or cause to be maintained in good repair, working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear and casualty damage excepted, all material properties owed by any such Credit Party used or useful in the business of Holdings and its Subsidiaries and from time to time will make or cause to be made all appropriate repairs, renewals and replacements thereof, except, in each case, where failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.5    Insurance. Holdings will maintain or cause to be maintained, with financially sound and reputable insurers, (i) business interruption insurance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, and (ii) casualty insurance, such public liability insurance, third party property damage insurance with respect to liabilities, losses or damage in respect of the assets, properties and businesses of Holdings and its Subsidiaries as may customarily be carried or maintained under similar circumstances by Persons engaged in similar businesses, in each case in such amounts (giving effect to self-insurance), with such deductibles, covering such risks and otherwise on such terms and conditions as shall be customary for such Persons. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Holdings will maintain or cause to be maintained (a) flood insurance with respect to each Flood Hazard Property that is located in a community that participates in the National Flood Insurance Program, in each case in compliance with any applicable regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and (b) replacement value casualty insurance on the Collateral under such policies of insurance, with such insurance companies, in such amounts, with such deductibles, and covering such risks as are at all times carried or maintained under similar circumstances by Persons engaged in similar businesses. Each such policy of liability insurance shall name Collateral Agent, on behalf of Lenders as an additional insured thereunder as its interests may appear. Each casualty insurance policy, shall contain a loss payable clause or endorsement, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Collateral Agent, that names Collateral Agent, on behalf of Secured Parties as the loss payee thereunder and provides for at least (A) ten days’ prior written notice to Collateral Agent of any cancellation of such policy based on nonpayment of premiums and (B) thirty days’ prior written notice to Collateral Agent of any cancellation of such policy based on any cause other than nonpayment of premiums.

5.6    Inspections. Each Credit Party will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, permit any authorized representatives designated by any Agent to visit and inspect any of the properties, and to check, test, audit and appraise any of the Collateral of any Credit Party and any of its respective Subsidiaries, to inspect and copy its and their financial and accounting records, and to discuss its and their affairs, finances and accounts with its and their officers and independent public accountants (provided that a Responsible Officer of Company shall be afforded an opportunity to be present), all upon reasonable prior notice and at such reasonable times during normal business hours; provided, however, that unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Agent shall only conduct one (1) such visit and inspection during any twelve consecutive month period.

SECTION 7. GUARANTY

7.1    Guaranty of the Obligations.

7.2    Reserved.

7.3    Payment by Guarantors. Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Beneficiary may have at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of Company to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when such become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise, Guarantors will upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in Cash, to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Beneficiaries, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for Company’s becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against Company for such interest in the related bankruptcy case) and all other Guaranteed Obligations then owed to Beneficiaries as aforesaid.

7.4    Liability of Guarantors Absolute. Each Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance

104

which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees as follows:

(a)    this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection. This Guaranty is a primary obligation of each Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety;

(b)    Administrative Agent may enforce this Guaranty upon the occurrence of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between Company and any Beneficiary with respect to the existence of such Event of Default;

(c)    the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Company and the obligations of any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the obligations of Company, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against Company or any of such other guarantors and whether or not Company or any other Guarantor is joined in any such action or actions;

(d)    payment by any Guarantor of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge any Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which has not been paid. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Administrative Agent is awarded a judgment in any suit brought to enforce any Guarantor’s covenant to pay a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, such judgment shall not be deemed to release such Guarantor from its covenant to pay the portion of the Guaranteed Obligations that is not the subject of such suit, and such judgment shall not, except to the extent satisfied by such Guarantor, limit, affect, modify or abridge any other Guarantor’s liability hereunder in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(e)    any Beneficiary, upon such terms as it reasonably deems appropriate, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or enforceability hereof or giving rise to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination of any Guarantor’s liability hereunder, from time to time may (i) renew, extend, accelerate, increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations; (iii) request and accept other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations and take and hold security for the payment hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) release, surrender, exchange, substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person (including any other Guarantor) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of such Beneficiary in respect hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right or remedy that such Beneficiary may have against any such security, in each case as such Beneficiary in its discretion may determine consistent herewith or the applicable Interest Rate Agreement and Currency Agreement and any applicable security agreement, including foreclosure on any such security pursuant to one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and even though such action operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against Company or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; and (vi) exercise any other rights available to it under the Credit Documents or Interest Rate Agreements and Currency Agreements; and

(f)    each Guarantor waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, all suretyship defenses available now or in the future under law or equity. In furtherance of the foregoing and without

105

limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations), including the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not any Guarantor has notice or knowledge of any of them: (i) any failure or omission to assert or enforce or any agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Credit Documents or any Interest Rate Agreement or Currency Agreement, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to depart from, any of the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to events of default) hereof, any of the other Credit Documents, any of the Interest Rate Agreements or Currency Agreements or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case whether or not in accordance with the terms hereof or such Credit Document, such Interest Rate Agreement or Currency Agreement or any agreement relating to such other guaranty or security; (iii) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the application of payments received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the other Credit Documents or any of the Interest Rate Agreements or Currency Agreements or from the proceeds of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as collateral for indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations) to the payment of indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though any Beneficiary might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) any Beneficiary’s consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) any failure to perfect or continue the perfection of, any subordination or failure to maintain the priority of, or any failure to enforce or release of security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) any defenses, set-offs or counterclaims which Company may allege or assert against any Beneficiary in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury; and (viii) any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

7.5    Waivers by Guarantors. Each Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of Beneficiaries: (a) any right to require any Beneficiary, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (i) proceed against Company, any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any Collateral or other property securing any obligation of Company, any such other guarantor or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any Deposit Account or credit on the books of any Beneficiary in favor of Company or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Beneficiary whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Company or any other Guarantor including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of Company or any other Guarantor from any cause other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon any Beneficiary’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith; (e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to

106

set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Beneficiary protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance hereof, notices of default hereunder, the Interest Rate Agreements or Currency Agreements or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to Company and notices of any of the matters referred to in Section 7.4 and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms hereof.

7.6    Guarantors’ Rights of Subrogation, Contribution, etc. Until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Revolving Commitments shall have terminated, each Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Company or any other Guarantor or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including without limitation (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Company with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that any Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against Company, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Beneficiary. In addition, until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full and the Revolving Commitments shall have terminated, each Guarantor shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution or reimbursement such Guarantor may have against any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Guarantor may have against Company or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution or reimbursement such Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights any Beneficiary may have against Company, to all right, title and interest any Beneficiary may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right any Beneficiary may have against such other guarantor. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights at any time when all Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been finally and indefeasibly paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.

7.7    Subordination of Other Obligations. Any Indebtedness of Company or any Guarantor now or hereafter held by any Guarantor (the “Obligee Guarantor”) is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such indebtedness collected or received by the Obligee Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof. Additionally, each Guarantor agrees not to assert or enforce, and to the extent maximum extent permitted by applicable law, hereby waives, any and all rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution against Company or any other Credit Party or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor (including after the payment in full of the Obligations or the Guaranteed Obligations) if all or any portion of the Obligations or the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been satisfied in connection with an exercise of remedies by Collateral Agent in respect of the Capital Stock of a Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party whether pursuant to the Pledge and Security Agreement or otherwise.

107

7.8    Continuing Guaranty. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations whether now existing or hereafter created or arising shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Revolving Commitments shall have terminated. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations.

7.9    Authority of Guarantors or Company. It is not necessary for any Beneficiary to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Guarantor or Company or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them.

7.10    Financial Condition of Company. Any Credit Extension may be made to Company or continued from time to time, and any Interest Rate Agreements or Currency Agreements may be entered into from time to time, in each case without notice to or authorization from any Guarantor regardless of the financial or other condition of Company at the time of any such grant or continuation or at the time such Interest Rate Agreement or Currency Agreement is entered into, as the case may be. No Beneficiary shall have any obligation to disclose or discuss with any Guarantor its assessment, or any Guarantor’s assessment, of the financial condition of Company. Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from Company on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of Company and its ability to perform its obligations under the Credit Documents and the Interest Rate Agreements and Currency Agreements, and each Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of Company and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any Beneficiary to disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or conditions of Company now known or hereafter known by any Beneficiary.

7.11    Bankruptcy, etc. (a) So long as any Guaranteed Obligations remain outstanding, no Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent acting pursuant to the instructions of Requisite Lenders, commence or join with any other Person in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency case or proceeding of or against Company or any other Guarantor. The obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or terminated by any case or proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of Company or any other Guarantor or by any defense which Company or any other Guarantor may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or administrative body resulting from any such proceeding.

(b)    Interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which accrues after the commencement of any case or proceeding referred to in clause (a) above (or, if interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of such case or proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guaranteed Obligations if such case or proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guaranteed Obligations because it is the intention of Guarantors and Beneficiaries that the Guaranteed Obligations should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order which may relieve Company of any portion of such Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantors will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar person to pay Administrative Agent, or allow the claim of Administrative Agent in respect of, any such interest accruing after the date on which such case or proceeding is commenced.

108

7.12    Discharge of Guaranty Upon Sale of Guarantor. If all of the Capital Stock of any Guarantor or any of its successors in interest hereunder shall be sold or otherwise disposed of (including by merger or consolidation) in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, the Guaranty of such Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by any Beneficiary or any other Person effective as of the time of such Asset Sale.

7.13    Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Credit Party to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 7 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 7, or otherwise under this Guaranty, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the earlier of (i) the discharge of the Guaranty of such Qualified ECP Guarantor pursuant to Section 7.12 or (ii) the indefeasible payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and the termination of the Revolving Commitments. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 7.13 constitute, and this Section 7.13 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Credit Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Each Agent hereby agrees to act upon the express conditions contained herein and the other Credit Documents, as applicable.

(d)    In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Agent and Revolving shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries.

9.2    Powers and Duties. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent to take such action on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Credit Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Agent shall have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly specified herein and the other Credit Documents.

No Agent shall have, by reason hereof or any of the other Credit Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender; and nothing herein or any of the other Credit Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon any Agent any obligations in respect hereof or any of the other Credit Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein.

9.3    General Immunity.

(a)    No Responsibility for Certain Matters. No Agent shall be responsible to any Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency hereof or any other Credit Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein by any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by or on behalf of any Credit Party to any Agent or any Lender in connection with the Credit Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of any Credit Party or any other Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall any Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Credit Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or as to the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Default. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Loans or the component amounts thereof.

(b)    Exculpatory Provisions. None of any Agent nor any of their respective officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to Lenders for any action taken or omitted by any Agent under or in connection with any of the Credit Documents except to the extent caused by such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable order. Each Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action) in connection herewith or any of the other Credit Documents or

112

from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until such Agent shall have received instructions in respect thereof from Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 10.5) and, upon receipt of such instructions from Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders, as the case may be), such Agent shall be entitled to act or (where so instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such instructions. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for Holdings and its Subsidiaries), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting hereunder or any of the other Credit Documents in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 10.5).

The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless such Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Credit Party referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice and take such action with respect to any such Default or Event of Default as may be directed by the Requisite Lenders in accordance with Article VIII; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

9.4    Agents Entitled to Act as Lender. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, any Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder. With respect to its participation in the Loans, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Lender” shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each Agent in its individual capacity. Any Agent and their respective Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with Holdings or any of its Affiliates as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from Company for services in connection herewith and otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.

9.5    Lenders’ Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgment.

(a)    Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Holdings and its Subsidiaries in connection with Credit Extensions hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Holdings and its Subsidiaries. Neither Agent shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and neither Agent shall have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to Lenders.

9.6    Right to Indemnity. Each Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify each Agent in their respective capacities as such and each of their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, partners, directors, trustees, employees, members, equity holders, advisors and agents and representatives (each, an “Indemnitee Agent Party”), to the extent that such Indemnitee Agent Party shall not have been reimbursed by any Credit Party, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitee Agent Party in connection with such Agent exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the other Credit Documents or otherwise in its capacity as such in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY, OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH INDEMNITEE AGENT PARTY; provided, no Lender shall be liable to indemnify Administrative Agent for any Protective Advances that it makes to or for the benefit Company or for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Indemnitee Agent Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable order. If any indemnity furnished to any Indemnitee Agent Party for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Indemnitee Agent Party, be insufficient or become impaired, such Indemnitee Agent Party may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided, in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify any Indemnitee Agent Party against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof; and provided further, this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Lender to indemnify any Indemnitee Agent Party against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement described in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence.

9.7    Resignation.

(a)    Each of each Agent and Revolver Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty days’ prior written notice thereof to Lenders and Company; provided that such prior written notice shall not be required if one of the other Agents (or one of their respective Affiliates or Related Funds) becomes the successor to such Person. Upon any such notice of resignation, Requisite Lenders shall have the right, upon five Business Days’ notice to Company, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (as the case may be) (provided, however, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Disqualified Person be appointed as successor). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, that successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (as the case may be) and the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (as the case may be) shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held under the Collateral Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the

114

performance of the duties of such successor under the Credit Documents, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor such amendments to financing statements (if necessary), and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment (if necessary) to such successor of the security interests created under the Collateral Documents, whereupon such retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may assign their rights and duties as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent hereunder to an Affiliate of TSL without the prior written consent of, or prior written notice to, Company or the Lenders; provided that Company and the Lenders may deem and treat such assigning Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent for all purposes hereof, unless and until such assigning Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, provides written notice to Company and the Lenders of such assignment. Upon such assignment such Affiliate shall succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents.

9.8    Collateral Documents and Guaranty.

(a)    Agents under Collateral Documents and Guaranty. Each Lender hereby further authorizes Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of and for the benefit of Lenders, to be the agent for and representative of Lenders with respect to the Guaranty, the Collateral and the Collateral Documents. Subject to Section 10.5, without further written consent or authorization from Lenders, Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable may execute any documents or instruments (i) necessary to release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of a sale or other disposition of assets permitted hereby or to which Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 10.5) have otherwise consented, or (ii) necessary to release any Guarantor from the Guaranty pursuant to Section 7.12 or with respect to which Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 10.5) have otherwise consented or (iii) in connection with a credit bid or purchase authorized under this Section 9.8. Agents, the Credit Parties and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize each Agent (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing), based upon the instruction of the Requisite Lenders (or as otherwise agreed to by the Lenders in writing), to (x) consent to, credit bid or purchase (either directly or indirectly through one or more entities) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, (y) credit bid or purchase (either directly or indirectly through one or more entities) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale or other disposition thereof conducted under the provisions of the UCC, including pursuant to Sections 9-610 or 9-620 of the Code, or (z) credit bid or purchase (either directly or indirectly through one or more entities) all or any portion of the Collateral at any other sale or foreclosure conducted or consented to by an Agent in accordance with applicable law in any judicial action or proceeding or by the exercise of any legal or equitable remedy. In connection with any such credit bid or purchase, (i) the Obligations owed to the Lenders shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis unless the Lenders otherwise agree in writing (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims being estimated for such purpose if the fixing or liquidation thereof would not impair or unduly delay the ability of such Agent to credit bid or purchase at such sale or other disposition of the Collateral and, if such contingent or unliquidated claims cannot be estimated without impairing or unduly delaying the ability of such Agent to credit bid at such sale or other disposition, then such claims shall be disregarded, not credit bid, and not entitled to any interest in the Collateral that is the subject of such credit bid or purchase) and the Lenders whose Obligations are credit bid shall be entitled to

115

receive interests (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid unless the Lenders otherwise agree in writing) in the Collateral that is the subject of such credit bid or purchase (or in the Capital Stock of the any entities that are used to consummate such credit bid or purchase), and (ii) each Agent, based upon the instruction of the Requisite Lenders (or as otherwise agreed to by the Lenders in writing), may accept non-cash consideration, including debt and equity securities issued by any entities used to consummate such credit bid or purchase and in connection therewith Agent may reduce the Obligations owed to the Lenders and the Lender Counterparties (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid unless otherwise agreed to by the Lenders in writing) based upon the value of such non-cash consideration.

(b)    Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guaranty. Anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, Company, Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, and each Lender hereby agree that no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral under the Collateral Documents or to enforce the Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder with respect thereto may be exercised solely by Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by Collateral Agent.

9.9    Protective Advances. Subject to the limitations set forth below, after an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Administrative Agent is authorized by Company and the Lenders, from time to time in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (but Administrative Agent shall have absolutely no obligation to), to make advances to Company, which Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable (i) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations, or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, including, without limitation, payments of principal, interest, fees and reimbursable expenses (any of such advances are in this Section 9.9 referred to as “Protective Advances”). Protective Advances may be made even if the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 have not been satisfied. Company shall pay the unpaid principal amount and all unpaid and accrued interest of each Protective Advance on the earlier of the Final Maturity Date and the date on which demand for payment is made by Administrative Agent. The Protective Advances shall be secured by Collateral Agent’s Liens, constitute Obligations hereunder, and bear interest at the rate applicable from time to time to Term Loans that are Base Rate Loans. Protective Advances shall be for the sole and separate account of Administrative Agent.

9.10    Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Book Runners. Each of the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Book Runners, in such capacities, shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility, or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to it in its capacity as a Lender, as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, or as Issuing Bank. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Book Runners, in such capacities, shall not have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or any Credit Party. Each Lender, Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Issuing Bank, and each Credit Party acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Book Runners in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. Each of the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Book Runners, in such capacities, shall be entitled to resign at any time by giving notice to Administrative Agent and Company.

9.11    Erroneous Payments. If all or any part of any payment or other distribution by or on behalf of any Agent to any Lender or other Person on behalf of a Lender is determined by such Agent in its sole discretion to have been made in error as determined by such Agent (any such distribution, an “Erroneous Distribution”), then the relevant Lender or such other Person shall forthwith on written

116

demand (accompanied by a reasonably detailed calculation of such Erroneous Distribution) repay to such Agent the amount of such Erroneous Distribution received by such Person. Any determination by any Agent, in its sole discretion, that all or a portion of any distribution to a Lender or other Person on behalf of a Lender was an Erroneous Distribution shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender and other potential recipient of an Erroneous Distribution on behalf of a Lender hereunder waives any claim of discharge for value and any other claim of entitlement to, or in respect of, any Erroneous Distribution.

SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1    Notices. Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given to a Credit Party, Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent shall be sent to such Person’s address as set forth on Appendix B or in the other relevant Credit Document, and in the case of any Lender, the address as indicated on Appendix B or otherwise indicated to Administrative Agent in writing. Each notice hereunder shall be in writing and may be personally served, telexed or sent by telefacsimile or United States mail, courier service or electronic mail and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person or by courier service and signed for against receipt thereof, upon receipt of telefacsimile, electronic mail or telex, or three Business Days after depositing it in the United States mail with postage prepaid and properly addressed.

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, Company agrees to pay promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days after receipt of written demand therefor) (a) all Administrative Agent’s actual and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of preparation of the Credit Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto; (b) Reserved; (c) all the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel to Agents in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and administration of the Credit Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto and any other documents or matters requested by Company; (d) all the actual documented costs and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of creating and perfecting Liens in favor of Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties, including filing and recording fees, expenses and taxes, stamp or documentary taxes, search fees and title insurance premiums; (e) all Administrative Agent’s actual and documented out-of-pocket costs and reasonable fees, expenses for, and disbursements of any of Administrative Agent’s auditors, accountants, consultants or appraisers whether internal or external, and all reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees (including allocated costs of internal counsel and expenses and disbursements of outside counsel) incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and administration of the Credit Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto and any other documents or matters requested by Company; (f) all the actual and documented out-of-pocket costs and reasonable expenses (including the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of any appraisers, consultants, advisors and agents reasonably employed or retained by Collateral Agent and its counsel) in connection with the custody or preservation of any of the Collateral in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; (g) [reserved]; and (h) after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (including allocated costs of internal counsel) and costs of settlement, incurred by any Agent and Lenders in enforcing any Obligations of or in collecting any payments due from any Credit Party hereunder or under the other Credit Documents by reason of such Default or Event of Default (including in connection with the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon any of the Collateral or the enforcement of the Guaranty) or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a “work out” or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy cases or proceedings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company shall be under no obligation to pay any costs and expenses incurred by any Agent in connection with syndication of the Loans and Commitments after the Closing Date.

117

10.3    Indemnity.

(a)    In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to Section 10.2, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, each Credit Party agrees to defend (subject to Indemnitees’ selection of counsel), indemnify, pay and hold harmless, each Agent, Issuing Bank and each Lender, their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, partners, directors, trustees, employees, members, equity holders, advisors and agents and representatives (each, an “Indemnitee”), from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities, IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY, OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH INDEMNITEE; provided, no Credit Party shall have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non- appealable order, of that Indemnitee.

(b)    To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Credit Party shall assert, and each Credit Party hereby waives, any claim against Lenders, Agents, Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys or agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and Holdings and Company hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

10.4    Set-Off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and expressly subject to Section 2.15, each Lender is hereby authorized by each Credit Party at any time or from time to time subject to the consent of Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), without notice to any Credit Party or to any other Person (other than Administrative Agent), any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts or payroll accounts (in whatever currency)) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party (in whatever currency) against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of any Credit Party to such Lender hereunder, including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected hereto or with any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not (a) such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder, (b) the principal of or the interest on the Loans or any other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 2 and although such obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured or (c) such obligation or liability is owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligation or such Indebtedness.

10.5    Amendments and Waivers.

(a)    Requisite Lenders’ Consent. Subject to Sections 10.5(b) and 10.5(c), except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of the Credit Documents, or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of the Requisite Lenders (and a copy of all amendments provided to the Administrative Agent).

118

(b)    Affected Lenders’ Consent. Without the written consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) that would be directly affected thereby, no amendment, modification, termination, or consent shall be effective if the effect thereof would:

(ii)    waive, reduce or postpone any scheduled interest payment, fee or principal repayment (but not prepayment);

(iii)    reduce the rate of interest on any Loan (other than any waiver of any increase in the interest rate applicable to any Loan pursuant to Section 2.8) or any fee payable hereunder;

(x)    consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under any Credit Document (except as a result of a transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement).

(c)    Other Consents. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of the Credit Documents, or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall:

(i)    increase any [**] Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment or Additional Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment of any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect without the consent of such Lender; provided, no amendment, modification or waiver of any condition precedent, covenant, Default or Event of Default shall constitute an increase in any [**] Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment or Additional Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment of any Lender;

(ii)    increase the Maximum Revolver Amount or any Revolving Commitment of any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect without the consent of each Lender that would be affected thereby (it being understood and agreed that any Incremental Revolver Increases made pursuant to Section 2.2(e) shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the prospective lenders providing the Incremental Revolver Increase); provided, no amendment, modification or waiver of any condition precedent, covenant, Default or Event of Default shall constitute an increase in the Maximum Revolver Amount or any Revolving Commitment of any Lender;

Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 10.5 shall be binding upon each Lender at the time outstanding, each future Lender and, if signed by a Credit Party, on such Credit Party.

10.6    Successors and Assigns; Participations.

(a)    Generally. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors and assigns of Lenders. No Credit Party’s rights or obligations hereunder nor any interest therein may be assigned or delegated by any Credit Party without the prior written consent of all Lenders and any assignment in contravention of the foregoing shall be absolutely void. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, Indemnitee Agent Parties under Section 9.6, Indemnitees under Section 10.3, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, Affiliates of each of Agents and Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

Company, Administrative Agent, and Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such Commitment or Loan shall be effective, in each case, unless and until an Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been delivered to and accepted by Administrative Agent (with notice to or consent of the Company, as required below) and recorded in the Register as provided in Section 10.6(e). Prior to such recordation, all amounts owed with respect to the applicable Commitment or Loan shall be owed to the

120

Lender listed in the applicable Register as the owner thereof, and any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the applicable Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Commitments or Loans.

(c)    Right to Assign. Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (except to a Disqualified Person (other than after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default)), including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment or Loans owing to it or other Obligations (provided, however, that each such assignment shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any Loan and any related Commitments):

(i)    to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (i) of the definition of the term of “Eligible Assignee” upon the giving of written notice to Company and Administrative Agent; and

(ii)    to any Person otherwise constituting an Eligible Assignee with the consent of (y) Administrative Agent, and (z) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Company (each of the foregoing consents not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided, each such assignment pursuant to this Section 10.6(c)(ii) shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than (A) $500,000 (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by Company and Administrative Agent or as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the unused [**] Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, unused Additional Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, or unused Revolving Commitments and [**] Delayed Draw Term Loans, Additional Delayed Draw Term Loans, or Revolving Loans of the assigning Lender) with respect to the assignment of [**] Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, [**] Delayed Draw Term Loans, Additional Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, Additional Delayed Draw Term Loans, Revolving Commitments or Revolving Loans, as the case may be, and (B) $500,000 (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by Company and Administrative Agent or as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the Term Loans of the assigning Lender) with respect to the assignment of Term Loans; provided further, that Company shall be deemed to have consented to a proposed assignment unless it objects thereto by written notice (including via e-mail transmission) to Administrative Agent within five Business Days after having received written notice thereof.

(d)    Mechanics. The assigning Lender and the assignee thereof shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement, together with such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the USA PATRIOT Act, and, with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.18(e).

(e)    Notice of Assignment. Upon its receipt and acceptance of a duly executed and completed Assignment Agreement, any forms, certificates or other evidence required by this Agreement in connection therewith, Administrative Agent shall record the information contained in such Assignment Agreement in the applicable Register, shall give prompt notice thereof to Company and shall maintain a copy of such Assignment Agreement.

(f)    Representations and Warranties of Assignee. Each Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon executing and delivering an Assignment Agreement, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the Closing Date or as of the applicable Effective Date (as defined in the applicable Assignment Agreement) that (i) it is an Eligible Assignee; (ii) it has experience and expertise in the making

121

of or investing in commitments or loans such as the applicable Commitments or Loans, as the case may be; (iii) it will make or invest in, as the case may be, its Commitments or Loans for its own account in the ordinary course of its business and without a view to distribution of such Commitments or Loans within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.6, the disposition of such Revolving Commitments or Loans or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control); and (iv) such Lender does not own or control, or own or control any Person owning or controlling, any trade debt or Indebtedness of any Credit Party other than the Obligations or any Capital Stock of any Credit Party.

(g)    Effect of Assignment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10.6, as of the “Effective Date” specified in the applicable Assignment Agreement: (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder to the extent such rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement and shall thereafter be a party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof; (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned thereby pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, relinquish its rights (other than any rights which survive the termination hereof under Section 10.8) and be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto; provided, anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of all indemnities hereunder as specified herein with respect to matters arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender hereunder); (iii) the Commitments shall be modified to reflect the Commitment of such assignee and any Commitment of such assigning Lender, if any; and (iv) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to Administrative Agent for cancellation, and Company shall promptly issue and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender.

(h)    Participations. Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or more participations to any Person (other than Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and other than a Disqualified Person (other than after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default)) in all or any part of its Commitments, Loans or in any other Obligation, provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Credit Parties, Administrative Agent, and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. The holder of any such participation, other than an Affiliate of the Lender granting such participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Collateral Documents or all or substantially all of the Guarantors from the Guaranty (in each case, except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) supporting the Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating. Company agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16(c), 2.17 and 2.18 to the same extent as

122

if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (c) of this Section; provided, (i) a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.17 or 2.18 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, and (ii) a participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.18 unless Company is notified of the participation sold to such participant and such participant agrees, for the benefit of Company, to comply with Section 2.18 as though it were a Lender. To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.4 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.15 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Credit Parties, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Credit Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or other obligations under any Credit Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(i)    Certain Other Assignments. In addition to any other assignment permitted pursuant to this Section 10.6, any Lender may assign, pledge and/or grant a security interest in, all or any portion of its Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to such Lender, and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender including, without limitation, any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank; provided, no Lender, as between Company and such Lender, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge, and provided further, in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank, pledgee or trustee be considered to be a “Lender” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.

(j)    Interlender Matters. Agents and Lenders have executed an agreement pursuant to which such parties have agreed, among other things, to certain voting arrangements relative to matters requiring the approval of the Lenders and to certain allocations of payments and proceeds of Collateral. The rights and duties of the Agents and Lenders, with respect to such matters, are subject to such agreement. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, any Person that is to become a party to this Agreement as a Lender (regardless of whether in connection with an assignment pursuant to this Section 10.6 or an Increase effected pursuant to Section 2.2(f), or otherwise) shall join the agreement described in this Section 10.6(j) as a condition to such Person becoming a party to this Agreement as a Lender.

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

10.8    Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the making of any Credit Extension. Notwithstanding anything herein or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of each Credit Party set forth in Sections 2.2(b)(iii), 2.16(c), 2.17, 2.18, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.10 and the agreements of Lenders set forth in Sections 2.15, 9.3(b), 9.6 and 10.17 shall survive the payment of the Loans and the termination hereof.

123

10.9    No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. The rights, powers and remedies given to each Agent and each Lender hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Credit Documents or any of the Ancillary Services Agreements, Interest Rate Agreements and Currency Agreements. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

10.10    Marshalling. None of any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Credit Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.

10.11    Severability. In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or any Note or other Credit Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

10.12    Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights. The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other Credit Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and, subject to Section 9.8, each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

10.13    Headings. Section headings herein are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

10.14    APPLICABLE LAW. THE VALIDITY OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE CONSTRUCTION, INTERPRETATION, AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF, THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES HERETO WITH RESPECT TO ALL MATTERS ARISING HEREUNDER OR RELATED HERETO, AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSIES OR DISPUTES ARISING HEREUNDER OR RELATED HERETO SHALL BE DETERMINED UNDER, GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

10.15    CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. (A) THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ALL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING HERETO OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, OR ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS, SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN THE STATE AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK; PROVIDED THAT ANY SUIT SEEKING ENFORCEMENT AGAINST ANY COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE BROUGHT, AT AGENT’S OPTION, IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION WHERE AGENT ELECTS TO BRING SUCH ACTION OR WHERE SUCH

124

COLLATERAL OR PROPERTY MAY BE FOUND. BY EXECUTING AND DELIVERING THIS AGREEMENT, EACH CREDIT PARTY, FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, IRREVOCABLY (i) ACCEPTS GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS; PROVIDED THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE AGENTS’ OR THE SECURED PARTIES’ RIGHTS TO BRING ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST ANY CREDIT PARTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION; (ii) WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS; (iii) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO THE APPLICABLE CREDIT PARTY AT ITS ADDRESS PROVIDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 10.1 ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER THE APPLICABLE CREDIT PARTY IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT; AND (iv) AGREES THAT AGENTS AND LENDERS RETAIN THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY CREDIT PARTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

(B)    EACH CREDIT PARTY HEREBY AGREES THAT PROCESS MAY BE SERVED ON IT BY CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO THE ADDRESSES PERTAINING TO IT AS SPECIFIED IN SECTION 10.1, AND ANY AND ALL SERVICE OF PROCESS AND ANY OTHER NOTICE IN ANY SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE EFFECTIVE AGAINST ANY CREDIT PARTY IF GIVEN BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, OR BY ANY OTHER MEANS OR MAIL WHICH REQUIRES A SIGNED RECEIPT, POSTAGE PREPAID, MAILED AS PROVIDED ABOVE. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NOTHING IN ANY CREDIT DOCUMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

10.16    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY BASED UPON OR ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR THEREIN OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION OR THE LENDER/BORROWER RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN ITS RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS SECTION 10.16 AND EXECUTED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT

125

AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS HERETO OR ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE LOANS MADE HEREUNDER. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

10.17    Confidentiality. Each Agent and each Lender shall hold all Information in accordance with such Agent’s or Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of such nature, it being understood and agreed by Company that, in any event, an Agent or a Lender may make (i) disclosures of such Information to Affiliates of such Lender or such Agent and to their employees, officers, members, partners, agents and representatives, directors, shareholders, advisors and consultants (and to other persons authorized by a Lender or an Agent to organize, present or disseminate such Information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 10.17) on a confidential and need-to-know basis (any such Affiliates, employees, officers, members, partners, agents and representatives, directors, shareholders, advisors and consultants shall maintain the confidentiality of such Information as set forth in this Section 10.17) for purposes of administering and to the extent necessary to administer this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, evaluating the Extensions of Credit hereunder (relating to any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or other documents or matters requested by Company or Administrative Agent, creating and perfecting Liens in favor of Collateral Agent and protecting and preserving the Collateral, collecting any payments due or in connection with any enforcement, refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a “work out” or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy cases or proceedings), portfolio reporting and for any reasons reasonably related to the foregoing, (ii) disclosures of such Information reasonably required by any bona fide or potential assignee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation by such Lender of any Loans or any participations therein or by any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) in Ancillary Services Agreements, Interest Rate Agreements and Currency Agreements (provided, such potential assignees, transferees, participants, counterparties and advisors are advised of and agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.17), (iii) disclosure to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential Information relating to the Credit Parties received by it from any of Agents or any Lender, (iv) disclosures to any Lender’s financing sources or actual or potential investors, provided that prior to any disclosure, such financing source or investor (as the case may be) is informed of the confidential nature of the Information and shall be required to maintain the confidentiality of the Information pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement, (v) disclosure required or requested in connection with any public filings, whether pursuant to any securities laws or regulations or rules promulgated therefor (including the Investment Company Act of 1940 or otherwise) or representative thereof or by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (and any successor thereto) or pursuant to legal or judicial process or any disclosures required or requested by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof; provided, except for disclosures described in clause (vii) below, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender shall make reasonable best efforts to notify Company of any request by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of such Lender by such Governmental Authority) for disclosure of any such non-public Information prior to disclosure of such information; (vi) disclosures as may be agreed to in advance in writing by Company; (vii) disclosures as may be required by regulatory authorities so long as such authorities are informed of the confidential nature of such Information, (viii) disclosures in connection with any litigation or other adversary proceeding involving parties hereto which such litigation or adversary proceeding involves claims related to the rights or duties of such parties under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents; provided, that, prior to any disclosure to any Person (other than any Credit Party, any Agent, any Lender, any of their respective Affiliates, or their respective counsel) under this clause (viii) with respect to litigation involving any Person (other than Company, any Agent, any Lender, any of their

126

respective Affiliates, or their respective counsel), the disclosing party agrees to provide Company with prior written notice thereof, and (ix) disclosures in connection with, and to the extent reasonably necessary for, the exercise of enforcing any Credit Document or for the exercise of any secured creditor remedy under this Agreement or under any other Credit Document. For the purposes hereof, “Information” means all information received by any Agent or any Lender (or any of their respective Affiliates or their respective agents, directors, shareholders, advisors, and consultants) from or on behalf of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, partners, directors, trustees, employees and agents pursuant hereto relating to Holdings, Company, any other Subsidiary or their respective properties or businesses, other than (x) information that was, is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the recipient in breach of this Agreement or (y) information that was within the possession of the recipient prior to being furnished to such recipient pursuant hereto or is lawfully obtained by such recipient thereafter from a source that, in each case, as far as such recipient is aware, is not, by virtue of such disclosure, in breach of any obligation of confidentiality of such source with respect to such information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or after the Closing Date, Administrative Agent may at its own expense issue news releases and publish “tombstone” advertisements and other announcements relating to this transaction in newspapers, trade journals and other appropriate media (which may include use of logos of one or more of the Credit Parties) (collectively, “Trade Announcements”). No Credit Party shall issue any Trade Announcement except (i) disclosures required by applicable law, regulation, legal process or the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission or (ii) with the prior approval of Administrative Agent. The provisions of this Section 10.17 shall terminate two (2) years after the payment in full of the Obligations.

10.18    Usury Savings Clause. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged or agreed to be paid with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, Company shall pay to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the applicable Lenders an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and Company to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to Company. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest, throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

10.19    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

127

10.20    Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto and receipt by Company and Administrative Agent of written or telephonic notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof.

10.21    Patriot Act. Each Lender and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Company that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Company, which information includes the name and address of Company and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify Company in accordance with the Act.

10.22    Ancillary Services Agreements, Interest Rate Agreements and Currency Agreement. The Ancillary Services Provider and each Lender Counterparty in its capacity as such shall be deemed a third party beneficiary hereof and of the provisions of the other Credit Documents for purposes of any reference in a Credit Document to the parties for whom an Agent is acting. Each Agent hereby agrees to act as agent for the Ancillary Services Provider and Lender Counterparties and, by virtue of being a Lender hereunder, the Ancillary Services Provider and Lender Counterparty shall be automatically deemed to have appointed each Agent as its agent to the extent applicable under the terms hereof and to have accepted the benefits of the Credit Documents that inure to it in its capacity as the Ancillary Services Provider or Lender Counterparty. It is understood and agreed that the rights and benefits of the Ancillary Services Provider or Lender Counterparty in its capacity as such under the Credit Documents consist exclusively of such Ancillary Service Provider’s or Lender Counterparty’s being a beneficiary of the Liens and security interests (and, if applicable, guarantees) granted to an Agent and the right to share in payments and collections out of the Collateral as more fully set forth herein and the other Credit Documents. In connection with any such distribution of payments or proceeds of Collateral, each Agent shall be entitled to assume no amounts are due or owing to the Ancillary Services Provider or Lender Counterparty unless the Ancillary Services Provider or Lender Counterparty has provided a written certification (setting forth a reasonably detailed calculation) to Agents as to the amounts that are due and owing to it and such written certification is received by Agents a reasonable period of time prior to the making of such distribution. No Agent shall have any obligation to calculate the amount due and payable with respect to any an Ancillary Services Agreement, Interest Rate Agreement or a Currency Agreement, but may rely upon the written certification of the amount due and payable from the Ancillary Services Provider or Lender Counterparty. In the absence of an updated certification, each Agent shall be entitled to assume that the amount due and payable to the Ancillary Services Provider or Lender Counterparty is the amount last certified to such Agent by the Ancillary Services Provider or Lender Counterparty as being due and payable (less any distributions made to the Ancillary Services Provider or Lender Counterparty on account thereof). Company is not required to obtain the Ancillary Services, Interest Rate Agreements or Currency Agreements from any Lender. Company acknowledges and agrees that no Lender has committed to provide any Ancillary Services, Interest Rate Agreements or Currency Agreements and that the providing of any Ancillary Services, Interest Rate Agreements and Currency Agreements by any Lender is in the sole and absolute discretion of such Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, no provider or holder of any Ancillary Service, Interest Rate Agreement or Currency Agreement in its capacity as such shall have any voting or approval rights hereunder solely by virtue of its status as the provider or holder of such agreements or products or the Obligations owing thereunder, nor shall the consent of any such provider or holder be required (other than in their capacities as Lenders, to the extent applicable) for any matter hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents, including as to any matter relating to the Collateral or the release of Collateral or Guarantors.

10.23    Debtor-Creditor Relationship. The relationship between the Lenders and Agents, on the one hand, and the Credit Parties, on the other hand, is solely that of creditor and debtor. No Lender or Agent has (or shall be deemed to have) any fiduciary relationship or duty to any Credit Party arising out of or in connection with the Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, and there is no agency or joint venture relationship between Lenders and Agents, on the one hand, and the Credit Parties, on the other hand, by virtue of any Credit Document or any transaction contemplated therein.

128

10.24    Revival and Reinstatement of Obligations. If any Beneficiary repays, refunds, restores, or returns in whole or in part, any payment or property (including any proceeds of Collateral) previously paid or transferred to such Person in full or partial satisfaction of any Obligation or Guaranteed Obligation or on account of any other obligation of any Credit Party under any Credit Document, Ancillary Services Agreement, Interest Rate Agreement or Currency Agreement, because the payment, transfer, or the incurrence of the obligation so satisfied is asserted or declared to be void, voidable, or otherwise recoverable under any law relating to creditors’ rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent transfers, preferences, or other voidable or recoverable obligations or transfers (each, a “Voidable Transfer”), or because such Beneficiary elects to do so on the reasonable advice of its counsel in connection with a claim that the payment, transfer, or incurrence is or may be a Voidable Transfer, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that such Person elects to repay, restore, or return (including pursuant to a settlement of any claim in respect thereof), and as to all reasonable costs, expenses, and attorneys fees of such Person related thereto, (i) the liability of the Credit Parties with respect to the amount or property paid, refunded, restored, or returned will automatically and immediately be revived, reinstated, and restored and will exist and (ii) the Liens securing such liability shall be effective, revived, and remain in full force and effect, in each case, as fully as if such Voidable Transfer had never been made. If, prior to any of the foregoing, (A) Liens securing the Obligations or the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been released or terminated or (B) any provision of this Agreement or any of the Collateral Documents shall have been terminated or cancelled, such Liens, or such provision of this Agreement or the Collateral Documents, shall be reinstated in full force and effect and such prior release, termination, cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligation of any Credit Party in respect of such liability or any Collateral securing such liability.

10.25    Joint and Several Liability; Administrative Borrower.

(a)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Credit Document to the contrary, each Person composing Company, as borrower under, hereby accepts joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Credit Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by Agents and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of the Persons composing Company and in consideration of the undertakings of the other Persons composing Company to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations. Each of the Persons composing Company, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Persons composing Company, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this Section 10.25), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all of the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each of the Persons composing Company without preferences or distinction among them. If and to the extent that any of the Persons composing Company shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event, the other Persons composing Company will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Obligations of each of the Persons composing Company under the provisions of this Section 10.25 constitute the absolute and unconditional, full recourse Obligations of each of the Persons composing Company, enforceable against each such Person to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents or any other circumstances whatsoever.

(b)    The provisions of this Section 10.25 are made for the benefit of Agents, the Lenders and their successors and assigns, and may be enforced by them from time to time against any or all

129

of the Persons composing Company as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of Agents, the Lenders or such successors or assigns first to marshal any of its or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any of the other Persons composing Company or to exhaust any remedies available to it or them against any of the other Persons composing Company or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 10.25 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied.

(c)    No Person composing Company will exercise any rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against any Credit Party or any guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Person’s obligations under this Agreement, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of Agents or the Lenders against any Credit Party or any guarantor or any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including the right to take or receive from any Credit Party or any guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security solely on account of such claim, remedy or right.

(d)    Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Person composing Company hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of any Loans made under or pursuant to this Agreement, notice of the occurrence of any Default, Event of Default, or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by Agents or the Lenders under or in respect of any of the Obligations, any requirement of diligence or to mitigate damages and, generally, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any other Credit Document). Each Person composing Company hereby assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by Agents or the Lenders at any time or times in respect of any default by any Person composing Company in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by Agents or the Lenders in respect of any of the Obligations, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of the Obligations or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any Person composing Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Person composing Company assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of Agents or the Lenders with respect to the failure by any Person composing Company to comply with any of its respective Obligations, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder, which might, but for the provisions of this Section 10.25 afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving any Person composing Company, in whole or in part, from any of its Obligations under this Section 10.25 or otherwise, it being the intention of each Person composing Company that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the Obligations of each Person composing Company under this Section 10.25 and otherwise under this Agreement shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance. The Obligations of each Person composing Company under this Section 10.25 and otherwise under this Agreement shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any other Person composing Company or Agents or any Lender.

(e)    Each Person composing Company represents and warrants to Agents and Lenders that such Person is currently informed of the financial condition of Company and of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations. Each

130

Person composing Company further represents and warrants to Agents and the Lenders that such Person has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Credit Documents. Each Person composing Company hereby covenants that such Person will continue to keep informed of Company’s financial condition and of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations.

(f)    Each Person composing Company hereby irrevocably appoints Holdings as the borrowing agent and attorney-in-fact for all Persons composing Company (the “Administrative Borrower”) which appointment shall remain in full force and effect unless and until Agents shall have received prior written notice signed by each Person composing Company that such appointment has been revoked and that another Person composing Company has been appointed Administrative Borrower. Each Person composing Company hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Borrower (a) to provide any Agent with all notices with respect to Loans obtained for the benefit of any Person composing Company and all other notices and instructions under this Agreement, and (b) to take such action as the Administrative Borrower deems appropriate on its behalf to obtain Loans and to exercise such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto to carry out the purposes of this Agreement. It is understood that the handling of Collateral in a combined fashion, as more fully set forth herein, is done solely as an accommodation to Company in order to utilize the collective borrowing powers of Company in the most efficient and economical manner and at Company’s request, and that Agents and Lenders shall not incur liability to Company as a result hereof. Each Person composing Company expects to derive benefit, directly or indirectly, from the handling of the Collateral in a combined fashion since the successful operation of each Person composing Company is dependent on the continued successful performance of the integrated group. To induce Agents and Lenders to do so, and in consideration thereof, each Person composing Company hereby jointly and severally agrees to indemnify each Agent and each Lender and hold each Agent and each Lender harmless against any and all liability, expense, loss or claim of damage or injury, made against any Agent or any Lender by any Person composing Company or by any third party whosoever, arising from or incurred by reason of (a) the handling of Collateral of each Person composing Company as provided in the Credit Documents, or (b) any Agent’s or any Lender’s reliance on any instructions of the Administrative Borrower, except that no Person composing Company will have any liability to any Agent or any Lender under this Section 10.25(f) with respect to any liability that has been finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent or Lender, as the case may be. Any notice required to be provided to Company hereunder, or any consent of Company that is required hereunder, may be satisfied by sending such notice, or obtaining such consent, from Administrative Borrower.

10.26    Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Credit Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Credit Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a)    the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(b)    the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i)    a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

131

(ii)    a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Credit Document; or

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