(b)If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and either the Borrower or the Lender shall so request, the Lender and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Lender); provided that, until so amended, (i) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (ii) the Borrower shall provide to the Lender financial statements and other documents required under this Credit Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP.

to the Borrower in Dollars from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in the Total Revolving Outstandings under Revolving Commitment exceeding the Revolving Commitment. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow the Revolving Loans. The Revolving Loans may be ABR Loans, LIBOR Loans or Daily LIBOR Loans, as further provided herein.

(b)The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving Commitment, provided that (i) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitment if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment or repayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.7, the Total Revolving Outstandings would exceed the Revolving Commitment, (ii) each such reduction of the Revolving Commitment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000. If at any time, as a result of such a partial reduction or termination as provided in Section 2.5(a), the Total Revolving Outstandings would exceed the Revolving Commitment, then the Borrower shall on the date of such reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitment, repay or prepay the Revolving Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

(c)In addition to any termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitment under paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section, the Revolving Commitment shall be reduced as required under Section 2.7.

(d)The Borrower shall notify the Lender of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitment under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable, provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitment may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by written notice to the Lender on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied subject to the Borrower’s obligation to indemnify the Lender pursuant to Section 3.5. Each reduction, and any termination, of the Revolving Commitment shall be permanent.

(a)Payment at Maturity. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan together with all accrued interest thereon on the earlier of the Maturity Date and, if different, the date of the termination of the Revolving Commitment in accordance with the provisions of this Credit Agreement.

(b)Note. The Borrower shall execute and deliver the Note. The Note shall be made payable to the Lender and its registered assigns in which case the Revolving Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.4) be represented by one or more Note in like form payable to the order of the payee named therein and its registered assigns.

(c)Lender Records. The Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lender resulting from each Revolving Loan owing to the Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to the Lender from time to time hereunder.

(d)Register. Entries made in good faith by the Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to Section 2.6(d), shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to the Lender, under this Credit Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Credit Agreement.

(a)Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may, upon written notice to the Lender, at any time and from time to time, voluntarily prepay any Revolving Loan in whole or in part without premium or penalty (except as set forth in Section 2.7(d) and Section 3.5)), provided that (A) such notice must be received by the Lender not later than 1:00 p.m. (y) three (3) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of a LIBOR Loan and (z) one (1) Business Day prior to any date of prepayment of a Daily LIBOR Loan and (B) each prepayment shall be in a principal amount of the Loan Minimum or a whole multiple of the Loan Multiple in excess thereof or, in each case, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Revolving Loans to be prepaid. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, provided that a notice of prepayment may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by written notice to the Lender on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied subject to the Borrower’s obligation to indemnify the Lender pursuant to Section 3.5.

(b)Prepayments of Revolving Loans. If for any reason the Total Revolving Outstandings at any time exceeds the Revolving Commitment then in effect, the Borrower shall immediately prepay, without premium or penalty the Revolving Loans, in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

(c)General Rules. All prepayments shall be subject to Section 3.5, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty. All prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest thereon and, in the case of any prepayment of a LIBOR Loan, any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.5.

(a)General. Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal of Revolving Loans, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under Sections 3.4, 3.5, 3.6 or 10.3, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon on the date when due, in immediately available funds. All payments to be made by Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff, without setoff or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Lender, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Lender as the Lender may from time to time notify the Borrower, except payments to be made to the Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 3.4, 3.5, 3.6 or 10.3, shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars.

(b)Insufficient Payment. Subject to the provisions of Article 8, whenever any payment received by the Lender under this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Lender under or in respect of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Lender and applied by the Lender (i) first, towards payment of all fees and expenses due to the Lender under the Loan Documents, (ii) second, towards payment of interest, fees and commissions then due hereunder, and

(a)Interest Rate Generally. All ABR Loans shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. Each LIBOR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Revolving Loan plus the Applicable Margin. Each Daily LIBOR Loan shall bear interest at the Daily LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(i)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Revolving Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

(ii)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing then, so long as such Event of Default is continuing, all outstanding principal of each Revolving Loan shall, without duplication of amounts payable under the preceding sentence, bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

(iii)Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

(c)Interest Payment Dates. Accrued interest on each Revolving Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Revolving Loan and at such other times as may be specified herein, provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Revolving Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment, and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any LIBOR Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Revolving Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

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

(a)Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender, a fully earned, nonrefundable commitment fee with respect to the Revolving Commitment (the “Commitment Fee”) in the amount of $37,500.00.

(b)Unused Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender, unused fees (the “Unused Fee”), which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to thirty five basis points (.35%) on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of the Lender during the period from and including the date on which this Credit Agreement becomes effective pursuant to Section 10.6 to but excluding the date on which the

Revolving Commitment terminates. For purposes of computing the Unused Fee, the Revolving Commitment shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the Total Revolving Outstandings. The accrued Unused Fee shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year, each date on which the Revolving Commitment is permanently reduced and on the date on which the Revolving Commitment terminates, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Agreement Date. The Unused Fee shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(c)Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender, for its own account, fees and other amounts payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Lender.

(d)Payment of Fees Generally. All fees and other amounts payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds. Fees and other amounts paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

(i)the Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Adjusted LIBOR Rate, the Daily LIBOR Rate, or the LIBOR Rate for such Revolving Loan; or

(ii)the Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, the Daily LIBOR Rate, or the LIBOR Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost of making or maintaining such Revolving Loan;

then the Lender shall give notice thereof to the Borrower by telephone or facsimile as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (x) any Committed Loan Notice that requests the conversion of any Revolving Loan to, or continuation of any Revolving Loan as, a LIBOR Loan or a Daily LIBOR Loan shall be ineffective, (y) if any Credit Request requests a LIBOR Loan or a Daily LIBOR Loan, such Revolving Loan shall be made as an ABR Loan, and (z) all outstanding Daily LIBOR Loans shall be converted to an ABR Loan as of the date of such notice.

(i)If at any time the Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (A) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (B) the applicable supervisor or administrator of the LIBOR Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Lender has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR Rate shall no longer be made available or used for determining interest rates for loans (such specific date, the “LIBOR Scheduled Unavailability Date”), or (C) a rate other than the LIBOR Rate has

become a widely recognized benchmark interest rate for newly originated loans of this type made in Dollars to borrowers domiciled in the United States, then the Lender may, in consultation with the Borrower, select an alternate benchmark interest rate (including any credit spread or other adjustments to such alternate benchmark (if any) incorporated therein) to replace the LIBOR Rate for purposes of this Credit Agreement (such rate, the “LIBOR Successor Rate”).

(ii)The Lender and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith any amendments to this Credit Agreement as may be necessary and appropriate to effectively replace the LIBOR Rate

with the LIBOR Successor Rate and incorporate any LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes related thereto.

(iii)If the Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that the circumstances under Section 3.3(b)(i)(A) have arisen or the LIBOR Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred, then (A) the Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower of such determination, which notice may be given by telephone, and (B) until such time as a LIBOR Successor Rate has been selected and this Credit Agreement has been amended to implement such LIBOR Successor Rate and any LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes,

(1) the obligation of the Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Loans shall be suspended, (2) any Committed Loan Notice that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a LIBOR Borrowing shall be ineffective, and (3) the Alternate Base Rate shall be determined without reference to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate component thereof.

(iv)The LIBOR Successor Rate and any LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes shall be determined, applied and implemented in a manner that gives due consideration to the then-prevailing market practice in the United States for determining, applying and implementing benchmark interest rates for newly originated loans of this type made in Dollars to borrowers domiciled in the United States. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, for purposes of this Credit Agreement, no LIBOR Successor Rate selected in accordance with the foregoing shall at any time be less than 0.00% per annum.

Section 3.4 Increased Costs; Illegality.

(i)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, the Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBOR Rate);

(ii)subject the Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii)impose on the Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Credit Agreement or the Revolving Loans;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Revolving Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Revolving Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Lender hereunder

(whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of the Lender, the Borrower will pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)Capital Requirements. If the Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting the Lender or any Applicable Lending Office of the Lender or the Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Lender’s capital or on the capital of the Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Credit Agreement, the Revolving Commitment or the Revolving Loans to a level below that which the Lender or the Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration the Lender’s policies and the policies of the Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will

compensate the Lender or the Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

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

(d)Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate the Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that the Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of the Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(e)Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Credit Agreement, if, after the Agreement Date, any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for the Lender to make or maintain any LIBOR Loan or Daily LIBOR Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any LIBOR Loan or Daily LIBOR Loan, then, by written notice to the Borrower:

(i)the Lender may declare that LIBOR Loans and Daily LIBOR Loans will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness) be made hereunder (or be continued) and no Revolving Loans will thereafter (for such duration) be converted into or continued as LIBOR Loans or Daily LIBOR Loans, whereupon any request for a LIBOR Loan or a Daily LIBOR Loan, to convert a Revolving Loan to, or continue a Revolving Loan as, a LIBOR Loan or a Daily LIBOR Loan shall be deemed a request for an ABR Loan (or a request to convert any such LIBOR Loan or Daily LIBOR Loan into an ABR Loan, as applicable), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and

(ii)the Lender may require that all outstanding LIBOR Loans and Daily LIBOR Loans be converted to ABR Loans, in which event all such LIBOR Loans and Daily LIBOR Loans shall be automatically converted to an ABR Loan, as of the effective date of such notice as provided in the last sentence of this paragraph.

In the event the Lender shall exercise its rights under clause (i) or (ii) of this paragraph, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the LIBOR Loans and the

Daily LIBOR Loans that would have been made or the converted LIBOR Loans and Daily LIBOR Loans shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans made in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, the LIBOR Loans or Daily LIBOR Loans, as applicable. For purposes of this paragraph, a notice to the Borrower by the Lender shall be effective as to each LIBOR Loan, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period currently applicable to such LIBOR Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by the Borrower.

Section 3.5    Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment or prepayment of any principal of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration (including as a result of a bankruptcy filing, or otherwise), (b) the conversion of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any LIBOR Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.7(a) and is revoked in accordance therewith), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate the Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a LIBOR Loan, such loss, cost or expense

to the Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by the Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Revolving Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate that would have been applicable to such Revolving Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Revolving Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that the Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for Dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurocurrency market. A certificate of the Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that the Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay the Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten days after receipt thereof.

(a)Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 3.6, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(b)Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(c)Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Lender timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d)Indemnification by the Borrower. Borrower shall indemnify the Lender, within ten days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified

Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by the Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to the Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(f)Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.6, Borrower shall deliver to the Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Lender.

(g)Status of Lender. If entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document, the Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, the Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will enable the Borrower to determine whether or not the Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting

requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject the Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of the Lender.

(h)Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.6 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.6), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of- pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph

(a)the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.

(i)Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.6 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, the Lender and the Termination Date.

(j) Confidentiality. Nothing contained in this Section shall require the Lender or any other indemnified party to make available any of its Tax returns (or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(a)Each of the representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (unless qualified by materiality or reference to the absence of a Material Adverse Effect, in which event they shall be true and correct), in each case on and as of such date as if made on and as of such date, provided that to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, they shall be true and correct in all respects as of such earlier date.

(B) such insurance companies shall have no rights of subrogation against the Lender or any of its Related Parties, provided, however, that if the insurance policies do not provide waiver of subrogation rights against such parties, as required above, then the Borrower (for itself and each of its Subsidiaries) hereby agrees, to the extent permitted by law, to waive its right of recovery, if any, against the Lender and its Related Parties; and

(ii)the designation of any form, type or amount of insurance coverage by the Lender under this Section 6.10 shall in no event be deemed a representation, warranty or advice by the Lender that such insurance is adequate for the purposes of the business of Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the protection of their properties and the Lender shall have the right from time to time to require the Borrower and its respective Subsidiaries to keep other insurance in such form and amount as the Lender may reasonably request; provided that such insurance shall be obtainable on commercially reasonable terms.

If the Lender at any time has a reasonable basis to believe that there may be a violation of any Environmental Laws or a Release of Hazardous Materials on, at, under, or from any property owned or leased by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, then, upon request by the Lender the Borrower shall permit the Lender to appoint a nationally-recognized independent environmental testing firm or such other consultant as the Lender shall determine, at the Borrower’s expense, to have access to all property owned or leased by Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries for the purpose of conducting such environmental testing, including subsurface sampling of soil and groundwater, as the Lender deems appropriate to investigate the subject of the potential violation or Release.

Section 10.1 Notices.

Notices sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices sent by facsimile shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient). Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in paragraph (b) below, shall be effective as provided in said paragraph (b).

(b)Electronic Communications. Each of the Lender and the Borrower may, in its or their discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to such party hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

Unless the Lender otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall

be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient

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

(a)No failure or delay by the Lender in exercising any right or power under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Lender under the Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that it would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Revolving Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b)Except as expressly provided by Section 3.3(b), or in the other paragraphs of this Section 10.2, neither this Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Borrower and the Lender.

(b)Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Lender (and any sub-agent thereof), the Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including Attorney Costs), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by Borrower arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Revolving Loan or the use or proposed use of the

proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under or

from any property owned or operated by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Claim or Environmental Liability related in any way to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by Borrower, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto or (v) any government investigation, audit, hearing or enforcement action resulting from Borrower’s or any of its Affiliate’s noncompliance (or purported noncompliance) with any applicable Sanctions, other Anti-Terrorism Laws or Anti-Corruption Laws (it being understood and agreed that the Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this clause (including indemnification for fines, penalties and other expenses) regardless of whether any adverse finding is made against Borrower or any of its Affiliates), provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by Borrower against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if Borrower has obtained a final and non-appealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that the indemnity set forth above in this paragraph shall be held to be unenforceable in whole or in part because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all indemnified amounts incurred by Indemnitees or any of them.

(c)Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower shall not assert, and Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Revolving Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in paragraph (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(d)Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly and in no event later than ten days after demand therefor.

Nothing in this Credit Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Lender) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Credit Agreement.

(b)Assignments by Lender. The Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all of its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of the Revolving Commitment and the Revolving Loans). From and after the effective date of each such assignment, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Credit Agreement and have the rights and

obligations of the Lender under this Credit Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall be released from its obligations under this Credit Agreement and shall cease to be a party hereto, but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.5 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment.

(c)Participations. The Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, sell participations to any Person (other than (x) a natural person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person) or (y) a Person who, at the time of such participation, is a Sanctioned Person if the sale of such participation would violate applicable law) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of the Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment and/or the Revolving Loans owing to it); provided that (i) the Lender’s obligations under this Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Lender in connection with the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement.

To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.8 as though it were the Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.8(h) as though it were the Lender. The Lender shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, 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 Revolving Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that the Lender shall have no 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, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Credit Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(d)Certain Pledges. The Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents to secure obligations of the Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release the Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for the Lender as a party hereto.

(e)Cashless Settlement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Credit Agreement, the Lender may exchange, continue or rollover all or a portion of its Revolving Loans in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Credit Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by the Borrower and the Lender.

Section 10.5 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of any Loan Document and the making of any Revolving Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Revolving Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under the Loan Documents is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Revolving Commitment has not expired or terminated.

Section 10.7 Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Credit Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

Section 10.8 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Lender and its Affiliates are hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by the Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries against any and all of the obligations of Borrower or such Subsidiary now or hereafter existing under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document to the Lender or Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not the Lender shall have made any demand under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of Borrower or such Subsidiary may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of the Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of the Lender and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Lender and its Affiliates may have.
