(b) On and after the Acquisition Closing Date and prior to the Initial Bridge Loan Maturity Date, if the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance or sale of Capital Stock (other than (x) issuances pursuant to the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s equity compensation plans, employee stock purchase plan and any dividend reinvestment or direct purchase plan and issuances similar to the foregoing and (y) for the avoidance of doubt, issuances or sales of Capital Stock of the Company representing or in connection with elections by shareholders of the Target to receive all or a portion of the equity

component of their consideration in the form of cash from the sale of all or a portion of such equity component by the Company or its Subsidiaries), 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied on the date of such issuance or sale toward the prepayment of the Loans. After the Initial Bridge Loan Maturity Date, Loans hereunder, if any, shall be subject to mandatory redemption provisions applicable to the Exchange Notes in the Exchange Indenture, and shall be entitled to offers for mandatory redemption ratably with any such Exchange Notes and, if applicable, New Senior Unsecured Notes, if any.

(c) On and after the Acquisition Closing Date, if the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale Prepayment Event or Recovery Event then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereto, 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds not required or applied to repay or reduce commitments under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (or any Permitted Refinancing thereof) or other senior secured Indebtedness that such Senior Secured Credit Facilities (or any Permitted Refinancing thereof) permit such proceeds to be shared with in accordance with their terms, shall be applied on or prior to the fifth Business Day after such receipt (or in the case of an Asset Sale Prepayment Event or Recovery Event in an amount less than $75,000,000, on or prior to the date five Business Days after the date the financial statements for the fiscal quarter in which such event occurred are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(i) or (ii)) toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section 2.6.4; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no later than each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event (less amounts required or applied to repay or reduce commitments under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (or any Permitted Refinancing thereof) or other senior secured Indebtedness that such Senior Secured Credit Facilities (or any Permitted Refinancing thereof) permit such proceeds to be shared with in accordance with their terms) shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section 2.6.4.

Prepayments from, and, without duplication, of amounts equal to, Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale Prepayment Event or Recovery Event by or of a Foreign Subsidiary (to the extent otherwise required) will be limited to the extent (x) the repatriation of Foreign Subsidiaries’ funds to fund such prepayments is prohibited, restricted or delayed by applicable laws, (y) repatriation of Foreign Subsidiaries’ funds to fund such prepayment could reasonably be expected to result in adverse tax consequences to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries or (z) such funds originate at the Target or its Subsidiaries prior to the Domination Agreement Effective Date. All mandatory prepayments are subject to permissibility under (a) in the case of Foreign Subsidiaries, local law restrictions (such as restrictions relating to financial assistance, corporate benefit, restrictions on upstreaming of cash intra-group and the fiduciary and statutory duties of the directors of the relevant Restricted Subsidiaries) and (b) with respect to non-Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries, organizational document restrictions, to the extent not created in contemplation of such prepayments. The non-application of any such mandatory prepayment amounts in compliance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph will not constitute an Unmatured Default or Default and such amounts shall be available for working capital purposes of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries. The Company will undertake to use commercially reasonable efforts to overcome or eliminate any such restrictions and/or minimize any such costs of prepayment (subject to the considerations above) to make the relevant payment, other than, for the avoidance of doubt, to the extent resulting from asset sales or

operations of the Target and its Restricted Subsidiaries prior to the Domination Agreement Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any prepayments made after application of the above provisions shall be net of any costs, expenses or taxes incurred by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of its Affiliates or equity partners and arising as a result of compliance with this paragraph.

2.6.3 Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.6 and each conversion (other than a conversion of a Floating Rate Loan to a Eurocurrency Loan) pursuant to Section 2.7 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid to the date of prepayment and any amounts payable under Section 3.3 in connection with such payment.

2.6.4 If two different Types of Loans are outstanding, the applicable prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be applied first to prepay Floating Rate Loans and second to prepay Eurocurrency Loans then outstanding in such order as the Company may direct

2.7 Conversion and Continuation of Outstanding Advances. Floating Rate Advances shall continue as Floating Rate Advances unless and until such Floating Rate Advances are converted into Eurocurrency Advances. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall continue as a Eurocurrency Advance until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time such Eurocurrency Advance shall be automatically converted into a Floating Rate Advance unless the Company shall have given the Administrative Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurocurrency Advance continue as a Eurocurrency Advance for the same or another Interest Period. Subject to the terms hereof, the Company may elect from time to time to convert all or any part of an Advance of any Type into any other Type or Types of Advance (subject to, in the case of conversion of any Eurocurrency Advance other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, payment of any amounts payable under Section 3.3 in connection therewith). The Company shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (a “Conversion/Continuation Notice”) of each conversion of an Advance or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance not later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least one Business Day, in the case of a conversion into a Floating Rate Advance, or three Business Days, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance, prior to the date of the requested conversion or continuation, specifying:

(a) the requested date, which shall be a Business Day, of such conversion or continuation,

(b) the aggregate amount and Type of the Advance which is to be converted or continued, and

(c) the amounts and Type(s) of Advance(s) into which such Advance is to be converted or continued and, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

2.8 Interest Rates, Interest Payment Dates; Interest and Fee Basis.

(a) Prior to Rollover Date. Prior to the Rollover Date, each Floating Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the date such Loan is made or is converted from a Eurocurrency Loan into a Floating

Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.7 to but excluding the date it ceases to be a Floating Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate for such day. Prior to the Rollover Date, each Eurocurrency Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Rate determined for such Interest Period.

(b) After Rollover Date. On and after the Rollover Date, each Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the Rollover Date, at a rate per annum equal to the Total Cap, except as set forth in Section 2.9.

(c) Total Cap. Notwithstanding anything contained in clauses 2.8(a) and (b) above, the per annum interest rate on the Loans shall not exceed the Total Cap.

(d) Interest accrued on each Initial Bridge Loan shall be payable on the last day of its applicable Interest Period (or if a Demand Failure Event has occurred, on such date and each Payment Date thereafter), on any date on which such Initial Bridge Loan is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and on the Initial Bridge Loan Maturity Date. Interest accrued on each Extended Term Loan shall be payable semi-annually, commencing on the date that is six months after the Initial Bridge Loan Maturity Date, on any date on which such Extended Term Loan is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and on the Extended Term Loan Maturity Date.

(e) Interest shall be payable for the day an Advance is made but not for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is received prior to 1:00 p.m. (local time) at the place of payment. If any payment of principal of or interest or fee on an Advance shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, except as otherwise provided in the definition of Interest Period, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a principal payment, such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment.

(f) All interest and fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period such interest or fee is payable over a year comprised of 360 days or, in the case of Floating Rate Loans based on the Prime Rate, 365/366 days.

(g) Changes in the rate of interest on that portion of any Advance maintained as a Floating Rate Advance will take effect simultaneously with each change in the Alternate Base Rate. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from and including the first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined as applicable to such Eurocurrency Advance.

2.9 Rates Applicable After Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, during the continuance of a Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Company (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that no Advance may be made as, converted into or continued (after the expiration of the then current Interest Period) as a Eurocurrency Advance.

Upon and during the continuance of any Default under Section 7.2 with respect to principal, interest or fees, the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Company (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders as to changes and interest rates) declare that (i) each Eurocurrency Advance shall bear interest for the remainder of the applicable Interest Period at the rate otherwise applicable to such Interest Period plus 2% per annum and (ii) each Floating Rate Advance and any other amount due under this Agreement shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate otherwise applicable to Floating Rate Loans plus 2% per annum; provided that, upon and during the continuance of any acceleration for any reason of any of the Obligations, the interest rate set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) shall be applicable to all Advances without any election or action on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

2.10 Pro Rata Payment, Method of Payment; Proceeds of the Guaranty.

(a) Each borrowing of Loans from the Lenders thereunder shall be made pro rata according to the Pro Rata Shares of the Lenders in effect on the date of such borrowing. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any reduction of Commitments of the Lenders shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent among the Lenders pro rata according to the Pro Rata Shares of the Lenders with respect thereto. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each payment (including each prepayment) by the Company hereunder on account of principal, or interest on Loans shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent pro rata to the Lenders according to the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Company hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim, in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders at the applicable payment office of the Administrative Agent for such payment specified from time to time in writing by the Administrative Agent to the Company by 1:00 P.M. (local time) on the date when due. Each payment delivered to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly by the Administrative Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds received by the Administrative Agent. All payments hereunder shall be in Dollars; provided that with respect to other payments required to be made by it pursuant to Section 10.6 that are invoiced in a currency other than Dollars, shall be payable in the currency so invoiced.

(b) Application of Proceeds of the Guaranty. All amounts received under any Guaranty when a Default exists shall first be applied as payment of the accrued and unpaid fees of the Administrative Agent hereunder and then to all other unpaid or unreimbursed Obligations (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in accordance with Section 10.6) owing to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as Administrative Agent only, and then any remaining amount of such proceeds shall be distributed:

(i) first, to the Persons owed any Obligations, pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid amounts of Obligations then owing, until all the Obligations then owing have been paid and satisfied in full; and

(ii) second, to the Person entitled thereto as directed by the Company or as otherwise determined by applicable law or applicable court order.

(c) Return of Proceeds. If at any time payment, in whole or in part, of any amount distributed by the Administrative Agent hereunder is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent as a preference, fraudulent conveyance, or otherwise under any bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar law, then each Person receiving any portion of such amount agrees, upon demand, to return the portion of such amount it has received to the Administrative Agent.

2.11 Telephonic Notices. The Company hereby authorizes the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to extend, convert or continue Advances, effect selections of Types of Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices made by any Person or Persons the Administrative Agent or any Lender reasonably and in good faith believes to be an Authorized Officer. The Company agrees to deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent a written confirmation, if such confirmation is requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, of each telephonic notice signed by an Authorized Officer. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall govern absent manifest error.

2.12 Notification of Advances, Interest Rates, Prepayments and Commitment Reductions. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each Commitment reduction notice, Borrowing Notice, Conversion/Continuation Notice, and repayment notice received by it hereunder. The Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the interest rate applicable to each Eurocurrency Advance promptly upon determination of such interest rate and will give each Lender prompt notice of each change in the Alternate Base Rate.

2.13 Lending Installations. Each Lender may, subject to Section 3.5, make and book its Loans at any Lending Installation(s) selected by such Lender and may change its Lending Installation(s) from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation(s) and the Notes, if any, shall be deemed held by each Lender for the benefit of such Lending Installation(s). Each Lender may, by written or telex notice to the Administrative Agent and the Company, designate one or more Lending Installations which are to make and book Loans and for whose account Loan payments are to be made.

2.14 Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Company or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Administrative Agent prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Administrative Agent of (a) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (b) in the case of the Company, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or the Company, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of payment by a Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate for the first five days and the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan for each day thereafter or (ii) in the case of payment by the Company, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan.

2.15 [Reserved]

2.16 [Reserved].

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

(a) the Commitments and Aggregate Outstandings of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders, all affected Lenders or Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 8.2), provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders (other than as a result of such Defaulting Lender having a greater or lesser Aggregate Outstandings or Commitments) or which increases the amount of any Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, forgives any principal amount of any Loans owing to such Defaulting Lender or any interest (other than default interest) or fees owing to such Defaulting Lender previously accrued at the time of such forgiveness or extends the termination date of such Commitment or extends the final maturity beyond the then maturity date of any Loan or Note with respect to such Defaulting Lender shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender; and

(b) any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise but excluding Section 3.5) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated account and, subject to any applicable Requirements Of Law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder, (ii) second, 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, as determined by the Administrative Agent, (iii) third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Company, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, (iv) fourth, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Company or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Company or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement and (v) fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans for which a Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its applicable share, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any Loans owed to any Defaulting Lender.

In the event that the Administrative Agent and the Company each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, such Lender shall cease to be a Defaulting Lender and the Pro Rata Shares of

the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Company 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.

2.18 Guaranties.

(a) During the period prior to the Acquisition Closing Date, the Company shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, Guaranties of Domestic Subsidiaries such that, at all times during such period, all Domestic Subsidiaries which are not Guarantors do not, if considered in the aggregate as a single Subsidiary, constitute a Significant Subsidiary (and for purposes of making such determination, it is acknowledged that, as provided in Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X as currently in effect promulgated by the SEC, the investment in and advances to, and share of total assets and income of, any Domestic Subsidiary shall be determined based on the investment in and advances to, and share of total assets and income of, such Domestic Subsidiary and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis).

(b) On and after the Acquisition Closing Date, within 45 days (or such longer period of time as the Administrative Agent shall agree) after delivery (or date of required delivery) of each set of applicable financial statements pursuant to Sections 6.1(i) and (ii), the Company shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, Guaranties from its present and future Wholly Owned Domestic Restricted Subsidiaries (other than Excluded Subsidiaries and Immaterial Subsidiaries) such that all Wholly Owned Domestic Restricted Subsidiaries (other than Excluded Subsidiaries and Immaterial Subsidiaries) are Guarantors as of such date.

(c) In connection with the delivery of any such Guaranties, the Company shall provide such other documentation to the Administrative Agent, including, without limitation, one or more opinions of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, corporate documents and resolutions, which in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent is necessary or advisable in connection therewith. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding the above, for so long as a Subsidiary of the Company guarantees the Senior Notes, any Securities (as defined in the Arranger Fee Letter), the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the facilities under the Existing Loan Agreement or Indebtedness for borrowed money subject to the covenant set forth in Section 6.28 (or in each case any refinancing, renewal or replacement thereof), such Subsidiary will be required to guaranty the Obligations.

2.19 Permanent Refinancing; Option to Exchange Initial Bridge Loans for Exchange Notes.

(a) On the Initial Bridge Loan Maturity Date, all outstanding Initial Bridge Loans shall be automatically converted into term loans (each, an “Extended Term Loan”) having an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Initial Bridge Loans, in each case to the extent such Loans are not repaid in whole or in part in cash on or prior to such date and no Default with respect to the Company under Sections 7.6 or 7.7 shall have occurred and be continuing.

(b) On any Business Day on or after the Initial Bridge Loan Maturity Date, at the option of the applicable Lender, the Extended Term Loans may be exchanged in whole or in part for one or more senior unsecured notes (the “Exchange Notes”) issued pursuant to the Exchange Indenture having an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Extended Term Loans; provided, however, that (i) the Company shall not be required to issue Exchange Notes until the Company shall have received requests to issue at least $50,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Exchange Notes (the “Initial Exchange Note Issuance”) and (ii) the Company may defer any subsequent issuance of Exchange Notes (a “Subsequent Exchange Note Issuance”) until such time as it shall have received an additional request to exchange an aggregate principal amounts of Extended Term Loans that equals or exceeds $1,000,000.

(i) Such Lender shall provide the Company prior irrevocable written notice of such election (each such notice, an “Exchange Notice”) at least five Business Days prior to the date of exchange specified in such Exchange Notice (each such date, an “Exchange Date”). The Exchange Notice shall specify the principal amount of Extended Term Loans to be exchanged (which shall be at least $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or the entire remaining aggregate principal amount of Loans of such Lender) and, subject to the terms of the Exchange Indenture, the name of the proposed registered holder and the amount of each Exchange Note requested. Extended Term Loans exchanged for Exchange Notes pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall be deemed repaid and canceled, and the Exchange Notes so issued shall be governed by the provisions of the Exchange Indenture. The Exchange Notes shall be issued in the form set forth in the Exchange Indenture.

(ii) As more particularly provided in the Exchange Indenture, (A) Exchange Notes issued pursuant to the Exchange Indenture shall bear interest at the Total Cap and (B) Exchange Notes issued pursuant to the Exchange Indenture (I) shall mature on the Extended Term Loan Maturity Date, and (II) shall be redeemable as set forth in the Exchange Indenture and the form of Exchange Notes attached thereto.

(iii) Following delivery of any Exchange Notice, the Company shall (A) deliver a written notice to the trustee under the Exchange Indenture (the “Trustee”), directing such Trustee to authenticate and deliver Exchange Notes as specified in the Exchange Notice and (B) use all commercially reasonable efforts to effect delivery of such Exchange Notes to the requesting Lender on the applicable Exchange Date.

(c) The Company agrees that as a condition to the effectiveness of the exchange of Extended Term Loans for Exchange Notes in the Initial Exchange Note Issuance (unless waived by the Administrative Agent):

(i) The Company shall have selected a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Lenders to act as Trustee.

(ii) The Company shall have issued the Exchange Notes pursuant to the Exchange Indenture substantially in the applicable form set forth therein, and the Company and each Guarantor shall have executed and delivered the Exchange Indenture.

(iii) The Company and each Guarantor shall have provided to the Administrative Agent copies of resolutions of its Board of Directors approving the execution and delivery of the Exchange Indenture and, in the case of the Company, the issuance of the Exchange Notes, together with a customary certificate of the secretary of the Company or such Guarantor certifying such resolutions.

(iv) The Company and each Guarantor shall have executed and delivered the Registration Rights Agreement.

(vi) The Company shall have caused its counsel to deliver to the Administrative Agent executed legal opinions in form and substance customary for a transaction of that type to be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, with respect to due authorization, execution and delivery, validity and enforceability of the Exchange Notes and the related guarantees, the Exchange Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement).

(d) The Company agrees that as a condition to the effectiveness of the exchange of Extended Term Loans for Exchange Notes in any Subsequent Exchange Note Issuance (unless waived by the Administrative Agent):

(i) the Company shall have issued the Exchange Notes pursuant to the Exchange Indenture substantially in the applicable form set forth therein.

(ii) The Company and each Guarantor the shall have provided to the Administrative Agent copies of resolutions of its Board of Directors approving the execution and delivery of the Exchange Indenture and, in the case of the Company, the issuance of the Exchange Notes, together with a customary certificate of the secretary of the Company or such Guarantor certifying such resolutions.

(iii) The Company shall have caused its counsel to deliver to the Administrative Agent executed legal opinions in form and substance customary for a transaction of that type to be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, with respect to due authorization, execution and delivery, validity and enforceability of the Exchange Notes and the related guarantees).

(e) If the foregoing conditions set forth in Section 2.19(c) or Section 2.19(d), as applicable, are not satisfied on any applicable Exchange Date, then the Lenders shall retain all

of their rights and remedies with respect to the Extended Term Loans pursuant to this Agreement until such conditions are satisfied and the Extended Term Loans are so exchanged for Exchange Notes. The Company agrees to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 2.19(c) no later than 10 Business Days after the receipt of one or more Exchange Notices requesting issuance of at least $50,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Exchange Notes, and the Company agrees to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 2.19(d) no later than 5 Business Days after receipt of one or more Exchange Notices requesting issuance of at least $1,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Exchange Notes.

(f) It is understood and agreed that the Extended Term Loans exchanged for Exchange Notes constitute the same indebtedness as such Exchange Notes and that no novation shall be effected by any such exchange.

2.20 Inability to Determine Rates.

(a) If at the time that the Administrative Agent shall seek to determine the LIBOR Screen Rate on the Quotation Day for any Interest Period for an Advance the LIBOR Screen Rate shall not be available for such Interest Period for any reason and the Administrative Agent shall determine in good faith that it is not possible to determine the Interpolated Rate (which conclusion shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error), then such Advance shall be made or continued as a Floating Rate Advance at the Floating Rate.

(b) If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for an Advance:

(i) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate for a Loan for the applicable Interest Period; or

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

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Company and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist (which notification the Administrative Agent agrees to promptly give in such circumstance), (A) any Conversion/Continuation Notice that requests the conversion of any Eurocurrency Advance to, or continuation of any Eurocurrency Advance in the applicable currency or for the applicable Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be ineffective and (B) such Advance shall be made as a Floating Rate Advance.

CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES, TAXES

3.1 [Reserved].

3.2 Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

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

(ii) impose on any Lender the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender; or

(iii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations hereunder, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes; (B) Excluded Taxes and (C) Other Connection Taxes on gross or net income, profits or revenue (including value-added or similar Taxes));

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such other Recipient hereunder, whether of principal, interest or otherwise, then the Company will pay to such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes; (B) Excluded Taxes and (C) Other Connection Taxes on gross or net income, profits or revenue (including value-added or similar Taxes)).

(b) If any Change in Law regarding capital requirements or liquidity has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Company will pay to such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 3.2 shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Subject to paragraph (d) of this Section 3.2, the Company shall pay such Lender, the amount shown as due on any such certificate, absent manifest error, within 30 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Company shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 3.2 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

3.3 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of a Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked and is revoked), or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 3.5, then, in any such event, the Company shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits due to the addition of the Applicable Margin to the Adjusted LIBO Rate) attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount reasonably determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof.

3.4 Withholding of Taxes; Gross-Up. (a) Each payment by any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, unless such deduction or withholding is required by any law. If any Withholding Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it is so required to deduct or withhold Taxes, then such Withholding Agent may so deduct or withhold and shall timely pay the full amount of Taxes deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the amount payable by such Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that, net of such deduction or withholding (including such deduction or withholding applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 3.4), the applicable Recipient receives the amount it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Company. The Company shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

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

(d) Indemnification by the Loan Parties. Each applicable Loan Party shall indemnify each Recipient for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes that are paid or payable by such Recipient in connection with any Loan Document (including amounts paid or payable under this Section 3.4(d)) 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. The indemnity under this Section 3.4(d) shall be paid within 10 days after demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the applicable Loan Party by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 3.4(e) shall be paid within 10 days after demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent and at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company

or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Company or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.4(f)(ii)(A) through (E) and Section 3.4(f)(iii) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender shall, if it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies reasonably requested by the Company and the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party hereto, duly completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) in the case of a Lender that is a U.S. Person, IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;

(B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (1) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (2) with respect to any other applicable payments under this Agreement, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(C) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender for whom payments under this Agreement constitute income that is effectively connected with such Lender’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States, IRS Form W-8ECI;

(D) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code both (1) IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, and (2) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto (a “U.S. Tax Certificate”) to the effect that such Lender is not (a) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (b) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Company within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code and (c) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code;

(E) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not the beneficial owner of payments made under any Loan Document (including a partnership or a participating Lender) (1) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (2) the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) and (F) of this paragraph (f)(ii) and in paragraph (f)(iii) that would be required of each such beneficial owner or partner of such partnership if such beneficial owner or partner

were a Lender; provided, however, that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more of its partners are claiming the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Certificate on behalf of such partners; or

(F) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender, any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation necessary to enable the Company or the Administrative Agent to determine the amount of Tax (if any) required by law to be withheld or deducted.

(iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company and the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 3.4(f)(iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

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

(g) 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 3.4 (including additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section 3.4), 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 3.4 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any 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 to such indemnified party pursuant to the previous sentence (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.4(g), in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 3.4(g) if such payment would place such indemnified party in a less favorable position (on a net after-Tax basis) than such 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. This Section 3.4(g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.4 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations under any Loan Document.

3.5 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Recipient requests compensation under Section 3.2, or if the Company is required to pay any additional amount to any Recipient or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Recipient pursuant to Section 3.4, then such Recipient shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Recipient, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.2 or 3.4, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Recipient to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Recipient. The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Recipient in connection with any such designation or assignment including the $3,500 fee contemplated by Section 13.1(b).

(b) If any Lender (i) shall become affected by any of the changes or events described in Section 3.2 or 3.4 and the Company is required to pay additional amounts or make indemnity payments with respect to the Lender thereunder, (ii) is a Defaulting Lender, or (iii) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 8.2 or any other provision of any Loan Document requires the consent of all Lenders or all affected Lenders and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent (any such Lender being hereinafter referred to as a “Departing Lender”), then in such case, the Company may, upon at least five Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent and such Departing Lender (or such shorter notice period specified by the Administrative Agent), designate a replacement lender reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (a “Replacement Lender”) to which such Departing Lender shall, subject to its receipt (unless a later date for the remittance thereof shall be agreed upon by the Company and the Departing Lender) of all amounts then owed to such Departing Lender under Sections 3.2 or 3.4, if any, assign all (but not less than all) of its interests, rights, obligations, Loans and Commitments hereunder; provided, that the Departing Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the Replacement Lender (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts). Upon any assignment by any Lender pursuant to this Section 3.5 becoming effective, the Replacement Lender shall thereupon be deemed to be a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement (unless such Replacement Lender was, itself, a Lender prior thereto) and such Departing Lender shall thereupon cease to be a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder (other than pursuant to Section 3.2 or 3.4 and Section 10.6).

(c) Notwithstanding any Departing Lender’s failure or refusal to assign its rights, obligations, Loans and Commitments under this Section 3.5, the Departing Lender shall cease to be a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and the Replacement Lender shall be substituted therefor upon payment to the Departing Lender by the Replacement Lender of all amounts set forth in paragraph (b) of Section 3.5 without any further action of the Departing Lender.

ARTICLE V

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

The Company represents and warrants to the Lenders on the Execution Date, the Acquisition Closing Date and each other date such representations and warranties are made pursuant to the Loan Documents (provided that prior to the Domination Agreement Effective Date such representations and warranties shall not apply to or otherwise include the Target or its Subsidiaries), that:

5.1 Corporate Existence and Standing. Each of the Company and, other than as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, its Restricted Subsidiaries is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other organization, duly organized and validly existing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and has all requisite corporate, partnership, company or similar authority to conduct its business as presently conducted (in each case, in the case of Foreign Subsidiaries, to the extent such legal concepts are applicable thereto).

5.2 Authorization and Validity. Each Loan Party has the corporate or other power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations thereunder. The execution and delivery by each Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by proper corporate or other applicable company proceedings. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto. Each Loan Document constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity.

5.3 No Conflict; Government Consent. Neither the execution and delivery by the Loan Parties of the Loan Documents, nor the consummation of the transactions therein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions thereof will violate any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or award binding on the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s constitutive documents or the provisions of any material indenture, instrument or agreement to which the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or is subject, or by which it, or its Property, is bound, or conflict with or constitute a default thereunder, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than any Lien permitted by Section 6.16) in, of or on the Property of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, instrument or agreement. Other than those that have been obtained, no order, consent, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, or other action in respect of any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, is required to authorize, or is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of, or the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of, any of the Loan Documents.

5.4 Financial Statements. The Company has heretofore furnished to the Lenders:

All financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of Section 6.1 or Article IV on and after the Execution Date were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in effect on the date such statements were prepared and fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial condition and operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than in the case of annual financial statements, subject to the absence of footnotes and year-end audit adjustments).

5.5 Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 2014, there has been no change in the business, Property, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

No delay or omission of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and the making of a Loan notwithstanding the existence of a Default or the inability of the Company to satisfy the conditions precedent to such Loan shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence. Any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Lenders required pursuant to Section 8.2, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth.

11.12 Actions in Concert. Notwithstanding anything contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Company, the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agree that no Credit Party shall have any right individually to enforce the guarantee set forth in any Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under any Guaranty may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in accordance with the terms thereof.

ARTICLE XII

SETOFF; ADJUSTMENTS AMONG LENDERS

12.1 Setoff. In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of the Lenders under applicable law, if any Default occurs and is continuing, any and all deposits (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) and any

110

other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by any Lender to or for the credit or account of the Company may be offset and applied toward the payment of the Obligations owing to such Lender by the Company; provided, that if any Defaulting Lender shall exercise such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.17 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

12.2 Ratable Payments. If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it upon its Obligations owing from the Company (other than payments received pursuant to Section 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 10.6 or as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Lender on its Obligations owing from the Company, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of the Advances to the Company held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its ratable proportion of Advances to the Company. If any Lender, whether in connection with setoff or amounts which might be subject to setoff or otherwise, receives any protection for its Obligations or such amounts which may be subject to setoff from or with respect to the Company, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to take such action necessary such that all Lenders share in the benefits of such protection ratably in proportion to their Obligations owing by the Company.

(c) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Company or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities, other than an Ineligible Person or, to the extent a list thereof has been posted by the Administrative Agent to all the Lenders, Disqualified Lenders (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Company, the 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. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the second proviso to Section 8.2.1 that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (d) of this Section, the Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.4(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.4(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section, except as provided under Section 13.1(d). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.1 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 12.2 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 Company, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts of and stated interest on each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan 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, 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 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, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

114

(d) No Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.2 or 3.4 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

13.2 Dissemination of Information. The Company authorizes each Lender to disclose, solely in compliance with applicable laws, to any Participant or potential assignee or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Loan Documents and the creditworthiness of the Company and its Subsidiaries, provided that each Transferee and prospective Transferee agrees to be bound by Section 10.9.

16.6 Judgment.

(a) If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in one currency into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, under applicable law that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency in the city in which it normally conducts its foreign exchange operation for the first currency on the Business Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b) The obligation of the Company in respect of any sum due from it to any Lender hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency such Lender may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender in the Agreement Currency, the Company agrees notwithstanding any such judgment to indemnify such Lender against such loss, and if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to any Lender, such Lender agrees to remit to the Company such excess.

16.7 Other Matters. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent agreed among the Company and the Arrangers, the loans under the Senior Secured Term B Facility and any New Senior Unsecured Notes may be funded into escrow (the “Escrow Funding”) prior to the Acquisition Closing Date. While in escrow, the Indebtedness represented by the Escrow Funding and the proceeds thereof shall not be included in calculations under this Agreement with respect to the financial covenants in Sections 6.22 and 6.23 of the Senior Secured Credit Agreement or any other financial ratios or incurrence tests hereunder and any applicable Indebtedness represented by the Escrow Funding, any Liens on the escrow account and any proceeds therein and any Investments thereof shall be permitted under Article VI hereof.
