Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to exercise any right that it may now have or hereafter acquire against any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor that arises from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under or in respect of this Agreement, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Bank against any other Loan Party or any other insider 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 other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all amounts payable hereunder shall have been paid in full in cash and the Commitment shall have terminated. If any amount shall be paid to either Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the payment in full in cash of all amounts payable under this Section 8 and the termination or expiration of the Commitment, such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Bank, shall be segregated from other property and funds of such Guarantor and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to the Bank in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be credited and applied to all amounts payable hereunder, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof, or to be held as collateral for any amount payable hereunder thereafter arising. If (i) either Guarantor shall make payment to the Bank of all or any amounts payable hereunder, (ii) all amounts payable hereunder shall have been paid in full in cash and (iii) the Commitment shall have expired or terminated, the Bank will, at such Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the obligations resulting from such payment made by such Guarantor pursuant hereto.

8.6 Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement shall nonetheless by payable by each Guarantor under this Section 8 forthwith on demand by the Bank.

The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement. No failure on the part of the Bank to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

SCHEDULE I

The “Applicable Margin” means, for any day, the rate per annum set forth below in the row opposite the relevant Usage and in the column corresponding to the Pricing Level that apply on such day:

For purposes of this Schedule, the following terms have the following meanings, subject to the last paragraph of this Schedule:

“Level I Pricing” applies on any day on which the Borrower’s long-term debt is rated A+ or higher by S&P or A1 or higher by Moody’s.

“Level II Pricing” applies on any day on which (i) the Borrower’s long-term debt is rated A or higher by S&P or A2 or higher by Moody’s and (ii) Level I Pricing does not apply.

“Level III Pricing” applies on any day on which (i) the Borrower’s long-term debt is rated A- or higher by S&P or A3 or higher by Moody’s and (ii) neither Level I Pricing nor Level II Pricing applies.

“Level IV Pricing” applies on any day on which (i) the Borrower’s long-term debt is rated BBB+ or higher by S&P or Baa1 or higher by Moody’s and (ii) none of Level I Pricing, Level II Pricing and Level III Pricing applies.

“Level V Pricing” applies on any day if no other Pricing Level applies on such day.

“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.

“Pricing Level” refers to the determination of which of Level I, Level II, Level III, Level IV or Level V Pricing applies on any day.

“S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

The “Usage” applicable to any date is the percentage equivalent of a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Loans at such date and the denominator of which is the Commitment Amount at such date. If for any reason any Loan remains outstanding following the termination of the Commitment, Usage will be deemed to be 100%.

The credit ratings to be utilized for purposes of this Schedule are those assigned to the senior unsecured long-term debt securities of the Borrower without third-party credit enhancement, and any rating assigned to any other debt security of the Borrower shall be disregarded. The ratings in effect for any day are those in effect at the close of business on such day.

In the case of split ratings from S&P and Moody’s, the rating to be used to determine the applicable Pricing Level is the higher of the two (e.g., A/A3 results in Level I Pricing); provided that if the split is more than one full rating category, the intermediate rating (or the higher of the two intermediate ratings) will be used (e.g. A/Baa1 results in Level II Pricing and AA-/Baa1 results in Level I Pricing).
