- 63 -

5.3        Inability to Determine LIBOR Rate.  In the event, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period relating to any LIBOR Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent shall determine or be notified by the Required Lenders that (a) adequate and reasonable means do not temporarily exist (and the conditions described in Section 2.12 do not then exist) for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate that would otherwise determine the rate of interest to be applicable to any LIBOR Rate Loan during any Interest Period, and a Benchmark replacement pursuant to Section 2.12 has not been established, including without limitation, because LIBOR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (b) the LIBOR Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining their LIBOR Rate Loans during such period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice of such determination (which shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders) to the Borrower and the Lenders.  In such event (i) any Credit Loan Request for LIBOR Rate Loans shall be automatically withdrawn and shall, in the case of such a Credit Loan Request, be deemed a request for, a Base Rate Loan, (ii) each LIBOR Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest Period relating thereto, become a Base Rate Loan, and (iii) the obligations of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended, in each case, until the Administrative Agent determines in good faith that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Borrower and each Group Agent.
 
5.4         Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any present or future law, regulation, treaty or directive or the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, such Lender shall forthwith give notice of such circumstances to the Borrower and the other Lenders and thereupon (a) the commitment of such Lender to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended and (b) such Lender’s Credit Loans then outstanding as LIBOR Rate Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loans or within such earlier period as may be required by law.  The Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, upon demand by such Lender describing in reasonable detail the nature of such increased costs and showing the calculation thereof in reasonable detail, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for any increased costs incurred by such Lender in making any conversion made necessary by events described above in this Section 5.4, including any interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder.
 
5.5         Additional Costs, etc.  If any present or future applicable law, which expression, as used herein, includes statutes, rules and regulations thereunder and interpretations thereof by any competent court or by any governmental or other regulatory body or official charged with the administration or the interpretation thereof and requests, directives, instructions and notices at any time or from time to time hereafter made upon or otherwise issued to any Lender or any Agent by any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall:
 
(a)          impose or increase or render applicable (other than to the extent specifically provided for elsewhere in this Credit Agreement, including without limitation, to the extent considered in the calculation of the LIBOR Rate) any special deposit, reserve, assessment, liquidity, capital adequacy or other similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law) against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, or letters of credit issued by, or commitments of an office of any Lender, or
 
- 64 -

(b)         impose on any Bank Lender, Lender Group or any Agent any other conditions or requirements with respect to this Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the LIBOR Rate Loans, such Lender’s or Lender Group Commitment to make LIBOR Rate Loans, or any class of loans or commitments of which any of the LIBOR Rate Loans or such Lender’s or Lender Group Commitment to make LIBOR Rate Loans forms a part, and the result of any of the foregoing is:
 
(c)          to increase the cost to any Lender or Lender Group of making, funding, issuing, renewing, extending or maintaining any of the LIBOR Rate Loans or such Lender’s or Lender Group Commitment to make LIBOR Rate Loans, or
 
(d)          to reduce the amount of principal, interest, or other amount payable to such Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder on account of such Lender’s or Lender Group Commitment to make LIBOR Rate Loans, or any of the LIBOR Rate Loans, or
 
(e)          to require such Bank Lender, Lender Group, or the Administrative Agent to make any payment or to forego any interest or other sum payable hereunder in respect of any LIBOR Rate Loans, the amount of which payment or foregone interest or other sum is calculated by reference to the gross amount of any sum receivable or deemed received by such Bank Lender, Lender Group or the Administrative Agent from the Borrower hereunder in respect thereof,
 
then, and in each such case, the Borrower will, upon demand made by such Bank Lender, Lender Group or (as the case may be) the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time and as often as the occasion therefor may arise, pay to such Bank Lender, such Lender Group or the Administrative Agent such additional amounts as will be sufficient to compensate such Bank Lender, such Lender Group or the Administrative Agent for such additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest or other sum.
 
5.6         Capital Adequacy.
 
5.6.1      If after the date hereof any Agent determines that (a) any Change in Law or (b) compliance by any Lender in its Lender Group or related Affected Party or any corporation controlling such Person with any law, governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such entity regarding capital adequacy, has the effect of reducing the return on such Person’s commitment with respect to any Credit Loans to a level below that which such Person could have achieved but for such Change in Law or compliance (taking into consideration such Person’s then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming full utilization of such entity’s capital) by any amount deemed by such Person or (as the case may be) its Group Agent to be material, then such Agent may notify the Borrower of such fact.  To the extent that the amount of such reduction in the return on capital is not reflected in the Base Rate, CP Rate or LIBOR Rate, as applicable, the Borrower agrees to pay the Administrative Agent for the account of each Person entitled thereto for the amount of such reduction in the return on capital as and when such reduction is determined upon presentation by such Person or (as the case may be) the Group Agent of a certificate in accordance with Section 5.7.
 
- 65 -

5.6.2      Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if an Affected Party shall at any time (without regard to whether any Basel III Regulations are then in effect) suffer or incur (i) any explicit or implicit charge, assessment, cost or expense by reason of the amount or type of assets, capital or supply of funding such Affected Party is required or expected to maintain in connection with the transactions contemplated herein, without regard to (A) whether such charge, assessment, cost or expense is imposed or recognized internally, externally or inter-company or (B) whether it is determined in reference to a reduction in the rate of return on such Affected Party’s assets or capital, an inherent cost of the establishment or maintenance of a reserve of stable funding, a reduction in the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Affected Party or its Affiliates or otherwise, or (ii) any other imputed cost or expense, in each case, arising by reason of the actual or anticipated compliance by such Affected Party with the Basel III Regulations, then, upon demand by or on behalf of such Affected Party through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of such Affected Party, such amount as will, in the determination of such Affected Party, compensate such Affected Party therefor.  A certificate of the applicable Affected Party setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate Affected Party under this Section 5.6.2 shall be delivered to the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.7.
 
5.6.3      No Agent nor any Lender shall be entitled to assert any claim under this Section 5.6 in respect of taxes.  Each of the Lenders and each Agent agrees that, in the event any of the circumstances of the type described in this Section 5.6 arise, it shall allocate any associated cost increases among its customers in good faith and on a non-discriminatory basis.
 
5.7        Certificate.  A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail a description of any additional amounts payable pursuant to Sections 5.5 or 5.6 and the calculations necessary to establish such amounts which are due and a brief explanation sufficient to evidence the affected Lender’s or affected Agent’s entitlement thereto, submitted by any Lender or any Agent to the Borrower, shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, that such amounts are due and owing.  In determining such additional amounts, each Lender or such Agent will act reasonably and in good faith and will use allocation and attribution methods which are reasonable.
 
5.8         Indemnity.  The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Affected Party and to hold each Affected Party harmless from and against any loss, cost or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits) that such Affected Party may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in payment of the principal amount of or any interest on any LIBOR Rate Loans as and when due and payable, including any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by such Affected Party to banks of funds obtained by it in order to maintain the respective LIBOR Rate Loan or Loans which are the subject of such default, (b) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing or conversion after the Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a Credit Loan Request in accordance with Section 2.5 or (c) the making of any payment of a LIBOR Rate Loan or the making of any conversion of any such Credit Loan to a Base Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period with respect thereto, including interest or fees payable by such Lender or Agent to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain any such Credit Loans.
 
- 66 -

5.9         Limitation on Increased Costs.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 5.4, 5.5 or 5.6, unless an Agent gives notice to the Borrower that it is obligated to pay an amount under any such Section within ninety (90) days after the later of (a) the date the relevant Affected Party actually incurs the respective increased costs, loss, expense or liability, or reduction in return on capital, and (b) the date such Agent has actual knowledge of its incurrence of the respective increased costs, loss, expense or liability, or reduction in the return on capital, then such Affected Party shall only be entitled to be compensated for such amount by the Borrower pursuant to said Sections 5.4, 5.5 or 5.6 (as the case may be) to the extent the costs, loss, expense or liability, or reduction in return on capital are incurred or suffered on or after the date which occurs ninety (90) days prior to such Agent giving notice to the Borrower that it is obligated to pay the respective amounts pursuant to said Sections 5.4, 5.5 or 5.6 (as the case may be).
 
5.10       Interest After Default.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, and upon notice from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, amounts due and payable under any of the Loan Documents shall bear interest (compounded monthly and payable on demand in respect of overdue amounts) at a rate per annum which is equal to two percent (2%) above the rate of interest otherwise applicable to such amounts (or if no rate of interest is otherwise applicable, two percent (2%) above the Base Rate) until such amount is paid in full or (as the case may be) such Event of Default has been cured or waived in writing in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement.

(d)         Multiemployer Plans.  Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any material liability (including secondary liability) to any Multiemployer Plan as a result of a complete or partial withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan under §4201 of ERISA or as a result of a sale of assets described in §4204 of ERISA, and (ii) neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has been notified that any Multiemployer Plan is insolvent under and within the meaning of §4245 of ERISA or is at risk of becoming insolvent, or that any Multiemployer Plan intends to terminate or has been terminated under §4041A of ERISA.

None of such proceeds will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin security, for the purpose of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or carry any margin security or for any other purpose which might cause of the Credit Loans under this Credit Agreement to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulations T, U, and X.  The Borrower will not take or permit any agent acting on its behalf to take any action which might cause this Credit Agreement or any document or instrument delivered pursuant hereto to violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.

(2)         shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and
 
(3)          shall not, except as expressly specified herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(b)          The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 16.12 and 13.2), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment.  The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default, Early Amortization Event or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default, Early Amortization Event or an Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent in writing by the Borrower or a Lender.
 
(c)          The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions specified herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, Early Amortization Event or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article 12 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.
 
14.4      Reliance by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan.  The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

(ii)         increase the amount of such Lender’s Lender Group Commitment or extend the expiration date of such Lender’s Lender Group Commitment (it being understood that any amendments or waivers that have the effect of waiving or eliminating any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute an increase in any Lender’s Lender Group Commitment);
 
- 110 -

(iii)       postpone or extend the Maturity Date or any other regularly scheduled dates for payments of principal of, or interest on, the Credit Loans or any Fees or other amounts payable to such Lender (it being understood that (A) a waiver of the application of the default rate of interest pursuant to Section 5.10, and (B) any vote to rescind any acceleration made pursuant to Section 13.1 of amounts owing with respect to the Credit Loans and other Obligations shall require only the approval of the Required Lenders); and
 
(iv)         other than pursuant to a transaction permitted by the terms of this Credit Agreement, release all or substantially all of the Collateral (excluding, if the Borrower becomes a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code, the release of “cash collateral”, as defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code pursuant to a cash collateral stipulation with the debtor approved by the Required Lenders);

(viii)       release all, or substantially all, of the Collateral, except as otherwise provided by this Credit Agreement or other Loan Document; or
 
(ix)         amend or modify any provisions of this Credit Agreement or other Loan Document that expressly requires the consent or approval of all of the Lenders;

- 111 -

(c)          without the written consent of each Interest Rate Hedge Provider (A) directly and adversely effected thereby, (i) amend, modify or waive any rights expressly granted to it under this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the right to receive notices, to be secured by the Collateral, have certain payment priorities in the “waterfall” order of payments set out in Section 4.1 and to consent to certain amendments); (ii) impair the Collateral or permit any Liens to be imposed on the Collateral, except as expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; or (iii) waive an Event of Default if, at the time of such waiver, an Interest Rate Hedge Agreement has been previously terminated and the Interest Rate Hedge Provider is owed any payments on account thereof; or (B) with respect to any other provision not addressed in clause (A), be effective if such amendment, modification or waiver could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on such Interest Rate Hedge Provider.

No waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon.  No course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto.  No notice to or demand upon the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.  The Required Lenders shall take such actions, including executing and filing appropriate releases in connection with a sale, transfer or other disposition (including by lease) of Collateral permitted by the terms of this Credit Agreement.
 
16.13     Severability.  The provisions of this Credit Agreement are severable and if any one clause or provision hereof shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect only such clause or provision, or part thereof, in such jurisdiction, and shall not in any manner affect such clause or provision in any other jurisdiction, or any other clause or provision of this Credit Agreement in any jurisdiction.
 
16.14     Third Party Beneficiary.  Each Interest Rate Hedge Provider is an express third party beneficiary hereof entitled to rely on and enforce the rights expressly granted to it in any representation, warranty, covenant and agreement hereunder as if such Interest Rate Hedge Provider was a party hereto; provided, however, that the exercise of any remedy with respect to the Collateral must be enforced through the Administrative Agent and only if such exercise of remedies is otherwise permitted pursuant to the terms of this Credit Agreement, the related Interest Rate Hedge Agreement and the other Security Documents.

Any notice of communication delivered to the Group Agent of a Lender Group shall be deemed to be delivered to each related Lender and Affected Party. The Borrower shall have no obligation to communicate with any Lender or Affected Party directly, and may rely conclusively on the actions and determinations of the related Group Agent to bind each Lender and related Affected Party in the related Lender Group.

(b)         Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 4.1 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 16.1), will 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 that Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; SECOND, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its Commitment Percentage thereof at a time when all of the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 11 and 12 were satisfied with respect to such Loan, as determined by Administrative Agent; THIRD, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Credit Agreement; FOURTH, so long as no Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Credit Agreement; and FIFTH, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction provided that if (1) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its Commitment Percentage and (2) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Sections 11 and 12 were satisfied or waived, such payment will 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 that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 18.1(b) will be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consent hereto.
 
(c)          Certain Fees.  Such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee pursuant to Section 2.2 for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower will not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).
 
18.2      Defaulting Lender Cure.  If (x) a Defaulting Lender shall have fully funded its Commitment Percentage of all Loans and other amounts it has previously failed to fund or (y) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the funded Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Commitment Percentages, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Supported QFC.
 
19.1      Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported OFCs.  To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Interest Rate Swap Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):
 
(a)          In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported. QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
 
(b)          As used in this Section 19.1, the following terms have the following meanings:
 
BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.
 
Covered Entity” means any of the following:
 
(i)          a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b);
 
(ii)         a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or
