Changes in the Applicable Margin (other than with respect to Alternate Currency Loans) resulting from a change in the Leverage Ratio shall become effective as of the first Business Day immediately following delivery by the Company to the Administrative Agent of a new Compliance Certificate pursuant to clause (c) of Section 7.1.1; provided that if a Compliance Certificate is not delivered when due in accordance with such Section, then the Applicable Margin shall increase to the next higher level above the Applicable Margin then in effect, which increased Applicable Margin shall apply as of the first Business Day after the date on which such Compliance Certificate was required to have been delivered.

Changes in the Applicable Margin with respect to an Alternate Currency Loan resulting from a change in the Leverage Ratio shall become effective upon the expiration of the current Interest Period with respect to such Alternate Currency Loan following delivery by the Company to the Administrative Agent of a new Compliance Certificate pursuant to clause (c) of Section 7.1.1; provided that if a Compliance Certificate is not delivered when due in accordance with such Section, then the Applicable Margin shall increase to the next higher level above the Applicable Margin then in effect, which increased Applicable Margin shall apply effective upon the expiration of the current Interest Period with respect to such Alternate Currency Loan after the date on which such Compliance Certificate was required to have been delivered.

In the event that any financial statement or Compliance Certificate for any period ending on or after September 30, 2010 delivered pursuant to clauses (a), (b) or (c) of Section 7.1.1 is inaccurate (regardless of whether this Agreement or the Revolving Loan Commitments are in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered) (it being understood and agreed that a change in GAAP that has a retroactive effect shall not cause previously delivered financial statements or Compliance Certificates to be deemed to be inaccurate), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin for any period (for purposes of this definition, an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Margin applied for such Applicable Period, then (i) the Company shall immediately deliver to the Administrative Agent a corrected financial statement and a corrected Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Period, (ii) the Applicable Margin shall be determined based on the corrected Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Period, and (iii) the Company shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent (for the account of the Revolving Loan Lenders during the Applicable Period or their successors and assigns) the accrued additional interest owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period.

For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of determining the Leverage Ratio (and any financial calculations required to be made or included within such ratio) on a pro forma basis as of any date of determination, the calculation of such Leverage Ratio shall be made using the amount of Total Debt outstanding as of such date of determination and the amount of EBITDA for the four Fiscal Quarter period most recently ended for which financial statements of the Company have been delivered to the Administrative Agent.

In the event of any such notification from the Company or the Administrative Agent and until such notice is withdrawn or such covenant is so amended, the Company will furnish to each Lender and the Administrative Agent, in addition to the financial statements required to be furnished pursuant to Section 7.1.1 (the “Current GAAP Financials”), (i) the financial statements described in such Section based upon GAAP as in effect at the time such covenant was agreed to (the “Prior GAAP Financials”) and (ii) a reconciliation between the Prior GAAP Financials and the Current GAAP Financials.

Section 1.5 Exchange Rates; Currency Equivalents. The Administrative Agent shall determine the Spot Rates as of each Revaluation Date to be used for calculating the Dollar Equivalent of Credit Extensions and amounts outstanding hereunder denominated in Alternate Currencies. Such Spot Rates shall become effective as of such Revaluation Date and shall be the Spot Rates employed in converting any amounts between the applicable currencies until the next Revaluation Date to occur. Except for purposes of financial statements delivered by the Company hereunder or calculating financial covenants hereunder or except as otherwise provided herein, the applicable amount of any Currency for purposes of the Loan Documents shall be such Dollar Equivalent as so determined by the Administrative Agent. Wherever in this Agreement in connection with a Credit Extension, conversion, continuation or prepayment of a Loan, an amount, such as a required minimum or multiple amount, is expressed in Dollars, but such Credit Extension is denominated in an Alternate Currency, such amount shall be the relevant Alternate Currency Equivalent of such Dollars, as determined by the Administrative Agent.

Section 1.6 Redenomination of Certain Foreign Currencies and Computation of Dollar Amounts. Each obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to make a payment denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the date hereof shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of such adoption (in accordance with the EMU Legislation). If, in relation to the currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the London interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention or practice with effect from the date on which such member state adopts the Euro as its lawful currency; provided that if any Credit Extension in the currency of such member state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Credit Extension, at the end of the then current Interest Period. Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the Euro. References herein to minimum Dollar amounts and integral multiples stated in Dollars, where they shall also be applicable to Alternate Currency, shall be deemed to refer to approximate Alternative Currency Equivalents.

Section 1.7 American Legal Terms. References to any legal term or concept (including without limitation those for any action, remedy, method of judicial proceeding, document, statute, court official, governmental authority or agency) shall in respect of any jurisdiction other than the United States be construed as references to the term or concept which most nearly corresponds to it in that jurisdiction.

Section 1.8 Terms Generally. The definitions in Section 1.1 shall apply equally to both the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall

include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”; and the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed as having the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts and contract rights. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any reference in this Agreement to any document, instrument or agreement shall mean such document, instrument or agreement as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, in each case, subject to and in compliance with any limitations on amendments, restatements, supplements or other modifications thereto set forth in this Agreement.

ARTICLE II
COMMITMENTS, BORROWING AND ISSUANCE
PROCEDURES, NOTES AND LETTERS OF CREDIT

Section 2.1 Commitments. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders and the Issuers severally agree to make Credit Extensions as set forth below.

Section 2.1.1 Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans.

(a) From time to time on any Business Day occurring on and after the Closing Date, but prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, each Lender that has a Revolving Loan Commitment (referred to as a “Revolving Loan Lender”) agrees that it will make loans (relative to such Lender, its “Revolving Loans”, which term shall be deemed to include the Original Revolving Loans, if any, outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement) (i) to the Company, denominated in Dollars, and (ii) to any Designated Borrower, denominated in an Alternate Currency, in each case, equal to such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the Dollar Equivalent (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of the aggregate amount of each Borrowing of the Revolving Loans requested by the applicable Borrower to be made on such day; and

(b) From time to time on any Business Day occurring on and after the Closing Date, but prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, the Swing Line Lender agrees that it will make loans (its “Swing Line Loans”) denominated in Dollars to the Company equal to the principal amount of the Swing Line Loan requested by the Company to be made on such day. The Commitment of the Swing Line Lender described in this clause is herein referred to as its “Swing Line Loan Commitment”.

On the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, the Borrowers may from time to time borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans. No Revolving Loan Lender shall be permitted or required to make any Revolving Loan if, after giving effect thereto, (i) the Dollar Equivalent of such Lender’s Revolving Exposure would exceed such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the then existing Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, (ii) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of Alternate Currency Loans, together with the Dollar Equivalent of Letters of Credit Outstandings denominated in an Alternate Currency, would exceed the Alternate Currency Commitment Amount, or (iii) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate amount of Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans outstanding together with the Dollar Equivalent of Letters of Credit Outstandings would exceed the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount. Furthermore, the Swing Line Lender shall not be permitted or required to make Swing Line Loans if, after giving effect thereto, (x) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Swing Line Loans would exceed the then existing Swing Line Loan Commitment Amount or (y) unless otherwise agreed to by the Swing Line Lender, in its sole discretion, the sum of all Swing Line Loans and Revolving Loans made by the Swing Line Lender plus the Swing Line Lender’s

Revolving Loan Percentage of the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Outstandings would exceed the Swing Line Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the then existing Revolving Loan Commitment Amount.

Section 2.1.2 Letter of Credit Commitment. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the Existing Letters of Credit shall continue as Letters of Credit for all purposes under this Agreement and the Loan Documents. From time to time on any Business Day occurring from the Closing Date but three days prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, the relevant Issuer agrees that it will:

(a) issue one or more standby letters of credit (relative to such Issuer, its “Letter of Credit”) in Dollars or in an Alternate Currency for the account of any Borrower or any Subsidiary (in which case the Company shall also have reimbursement obligations relating to such Letters of Credit) in the Stated Amount requested by the applicable Borrower on such day; or

(b) extend the Stated Expiry Date of an existing standby Letter of Credit previously issued hereunder.

No Issuer shall be permitted or required to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect thereto, (i) the Dollar Equivalent (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Outstandings would exceed the then existing Letter of Credit Commitment Amount or (ii) the sum of the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Outstandings plus the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans then outstanding would exceed the then existing Revolving Loan Commitment Amount.

Section 2.2 Reduction of the Commitment Amounts. The Company may, from time to time on any Business Day occurring after the Closing Date, voluntarily reduce any Commitment Amount on the Business Day so specified by the Company; provided that all such reductions shall require at least three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent and be permanent, and any partial reduction of any Commitment Amount shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $1,000,000, provided, further, that the Company shall have the right, upon five Business Days’ written notice to, and the consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of, the Administrative Agent, to automatically and without any further action by any Person and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary and subject to the reallocation (or cash collateralization) of Letter of Credit Outstandings and participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.10, to permanently terminate any then unfunded Revolving Loan Commitments of a Defaulting Lender, whereupon such Defaulting Lender shall cease to have any Revolving Loan Commitments hereunder and the Company shall not be permitted to reborrow any outstanding Revolving Loans of such Defaulting Lender that are repaid or prepaid hereunder (and, for the avoidance of doubt, upon any such repayment or prepayment, the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Defaulting Lender corresponding to the amount so repaid or prepaid shall be deemed permanently terminated). Any optional or mandatory reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount pursuant to the terms of this Agreement which reduces the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount below the sum of (i) the Swing Line Loan Commitment Amount, (ii) the Alternate Currency Commitment Amount and (iii) the Letter of Credit Commitment Amount shall result in an automatic and corresponding reduction of the Swing Line Loan Commitment Amount, Alternate Currency Commitment Amount and/or Letter of Credit Commitment Amount (as directed by the Borrowers in a notice to the Administrative Agent delivered together with the notice of such voluntary reduction in the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount) to an aggregate amount not in excess of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, as so reduced, without any further action on the part of the Swing Line Lender, any Revolving Loan Lender or any Issuer.

Section 2.3 Borrowing Procedures. Loans (other than Swing Line Loans) shall be made by the Lenders in accordance with Section 2.3.1, and Swing Line Loans shall be made by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with Section 2.3.2.

Section 2.3.1 Borrowing Procedure. In the case of Loans (other than Swing Line Loans), by delivering a Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent on or before 12 noon on a Business Day, the Borrowers may from time to time irrevocably request, on the proposed date of the Borrowing in the case of Base Rate Loans, or on three Business Days’ notice in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, and in either case not more than five Business Days’ notice, or on no less than five Business Days’, and no more than ten Business Days’ notice in the case of Alternate Currency Loans, that a Borrowing be made, in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) and an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof), in the case of Base Rate Loans, in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and an integral multiple of $100,000 or, in either case, in the unused amount of the applicable Commitment. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each Borrowing shall be comprised of the type of Loans, and shall be made on the Business Day and in the Currency specified in such Borrowing Request. In the case of Loans (other than Swing Line Loans), on or before 2:00 p.m. on such Business Day each Lender that has a Commitment to make the Loans being requested shall deposit with the Administrative Agent same day funds in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the requested Borrowing. Such deposit will be made to the applicable account which the Administrative Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the Lenders. To the extent funds are received from the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall make such funds available to the applicable Borrower by wire transfer to the account such Borrower shall have specified in its Borrowing Request. No Lender’s obligation to make any Loan shall be affected by any other Lender’s failure to make any Loan.

Section 2.3.2 Swing Line Loans; Participations, etc.

(a) By telephonic notice to the Swing Line Lender on or before 12:00 noon on a Business Day (promptly confirmed in writing if so requested by the Swing Line Lender), the Borrowers may from time to time irrevocably request that Swing Line Loans be made by the Swing Line Lender in an aggregate minimum principal amount of $500,000 and an integral multiple of $100,000. All Swing Line Loans shall be made as (i) Base Rate Loans and shall not be entitled to be converted into LIBOR Rate Loans or (ii) Daily LIBOR Rate Loans and shall not be entitled to be converted into LIBOR Rate Loans. The proceeds of each Swing Line Loan shall be made available by the Swing Line Lender to the applicable Borrower by wire transfer to the account such Borrower shall have specified in its notice therefor by the close of business on the Business Day telephonic notice is received by the Swing Line Lender. Upon the making of each Swing Line Loan, and without further action on the part of the Swing Line Lender or any other Person, each Revolving Loan Lender (other than the Swing Line Lender) shall be deemed to have irrevocably purchased, to the extent of its Revolving Loan Percentage, a participation interest in such Swing Line Loan, and such Revolving Loan Lender shall, to the extent of its Revolving Loan Percentage, be responsible for reimbursing within one Business Day the Swing Line Lender for Swing Line Loans which have not been reimbursed by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b) If (i) any Swing Line Loan shall be outstanding for more than thirty Business Days, (ii) any Swing Line Loan is or will be outstanding on a date when any Borrower requests that a Revolving Loan be made, or (iii) any Default shall occur and be continuing, then each Revolving Loan Lender (other than the Swing Line Lender) irrevocably agrees that it will, at the request of the Swing Line Lender, make a Revolving Loan (which shall initially be funded as a Base Rate Loan) in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the

aggregate principal amount of all such Swing Line Loans then outstanding (such outstanding Swing Line Loans hereinafter referred to as the “Refunded Swing Line Loans”). On or before 11:00 a.m. on the first Business Day following receipt by each Revolving Loan Lender of a request to make Revolving Loans as provided in the preceding sentence, each Revolving Loan Lender shall deposit in an account specified by the Swing Line Lender the amount so requested in same day funds and such funds shall be applied by the Swing Line Lender to repay the Refunded Swing Line Loans. At the time the Revolving Loan Lenders make the above referenced Revolving Loans, the Swing Line Lender shall be deemed to have made, in consideration of the making of the Refunded Swing Line Loans, Revolving Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Refunded Swing Line Loans. Upon the making (or deemed making, in the case of the Swing Line Lender) of any Revolving Loans pursuant to this clause, the amount so funded shall become an outstanding Revolving Loan and shall no longer be owed as a Swing Line Loan. All interest payable with respect to any Revolving Loans made (or deemed made, in the case of the Swing Line Lender) pursuant to this clause shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the period of time during which the Swing Line Lender had outstanding Swing Line Loans in respect of which such Revolving Loans were made. Each Revolving Loan Lender’s obligation to make the Revolving Loans referred to in this clause shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, any Obligor or any Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of any Default; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Obligor; (iv) the acceleration or maturity of any Obligations or the termination of any Commitment after the making of any Swing Line Loan; (v) any breach of any Loan Document by any Person; or (vi) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(c) In addition to making Swing Line Loans pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3, without the requirement for a specific request from the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.3.2(a), the Swing Line Lender may make Swing Line Loans to the Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of any agreements between one or more of the Borrowers and the Swing Line Lender relating to the Borrowers’ deposit, sweep and other accounts with the Swing Line Lender and related arrangements and agreements regarding the management and investment of the Borrowers’ cash assets as in effect from time to time (the “Cash Management Agreements”) to the extent of the daily aggregate net negative balance in the Borrowers’ accounts which are subject to the provisions of the Cash Management Agreements. Swing Line Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.3.2(c) in accordance with the provisions of the Cash Management Agreements shall (i) be subject to the limitations as to aggregate amount set forth in Section 2.1.1, (ii) be subject to any limitations as to individual amount set forth in the Cash Management Agreement, (iii) be payable by the Borrowers, both as to principal and interest, at the times set forth in the Cash Management Agreements (but in no event later than the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date), (iv) not be made at any time after the Swing Line Lender has notice of the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (v) if not repaid by the Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of the Cash Management Agreements, be subject to each Revolving Loan Lender’s obligation to purchase participating interests therein pursuant to Section 2.3.2(b), and (vi) except as provided in the foregoing subsections (i) through (v), be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Section 2.3.

Section 2.4 Continuation and Conversion Elections. By delivering prior telephonic notice to the Administrative Agent on or before 11:00 a.m. on a Business Day (such notice to be confirmed in writing within 24 hours thereafter by delivery of a Continuation/Conversion Notice), any Borrower may from time to time irrevocably elect:

(a) on not less than three nor more than five Business Days’ notice, the conversion of any Base Rate Loan into one or more LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in Dollars or the continuation of any LIBOR Rate Loan denominated in Dollars as a LIBOR Rate Loan so denominated; and

(b) on not less than five nor more than ten Business Days’ notice, the continuation of any LIBOR Rate Loan denominated in an Alternate Currency as a LIBOR Rate Loan denominated in such Alternate Currency;

provided that any portion of any Loan which is continued or converted hereunder shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in an integral multiple amount of $1,000,000; and provided further that in the absence of prior notice (which notice may be delivered telephonically followed by written confirmation within 24 hours thereafter by delivery of a Continuation/Conversion Notice) with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan denominated in Dollars at least three Business Days (or, with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan denominated in an Alternate Currency, at least five Business Days) before the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, such LIBOR Rate Loan shall, on such last day, automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan; provided that (i) each such conversion or continuation shall be pro rated among the applicable outstanding Loans of all Lenders that have made such Loans, and (ii) no portion of the outstanding principal amount of any Loans may be continued as, or be converted into, LIBOR Rate Loans when any Default has occurred and is continuing.

Section 2.5 Alternate Currency Loans.

(a) If any Borrower requests a Borrowing in an Alternate Currency, or if pursuant to any Continuation/Conversion Notice a Borrower elects to continue any LIBOR Rate Loan denominated in an Alternate Currency, the Administrative Agent shall in the notice given to the Revolving Loan Lenders pursuant to Section 2.3 or Section 2.4, as the case may be, give details of such request or election including, without limitation, as the case may be, the aggregate principal amount of the Borrowing in such Alternate Currency to be made by each Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the aggregate principal amount of such LIBOR Rate Loans to be continued by each Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Each Lender shall be treated as having confirmed that the Alternate Currency requested, or elected by the applicable Borrower to be continued, is Available to it unless no later than 9:00 a.m. on the same Business Day of the requested Borrowing or the proposed continuation it shall have notified the Administrative Agent that such Alternate Currency is not Available.

(c) In the event that the Administrative Agent has received notification from any of the Lenders that the Alternate Currency requested or elected by the applicable Borrower to be continued is not Available, then the Administrative Agent shall notify such Borrower and the Lenders no later than 10:00 a.m. on the same Business Day of the proposed Borrowing or proposed continuation.

(d) If the Administrative Agent notifies a Borrower pursuant to clause (c) above that any of the Lenders has notified the Administrative Agent that the Alternate Currency requested or elected by such Borrower to be continued or converted is not Available, such notification shall (i) in the case of any Borrowing Request, revoke such Borrowing Request and (ii) in the case of any Continuation/Conversion Notice, such continuation/conversion with respect thereto shall be deemed withdrawn and such Alternate Currency Loans shall be redenominated into Base Rate Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of any

such redenomination and in such notice by the Administrative Agent to each Lender the Administrative Agent will state the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the redenominated Alternate Currency Loans as of the Revaluation Date with respect thereto and such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage thereof.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during the existence of an Event of Default, upon the request of the Required Lenders, all or any part of any outstanding Alternate Currency Loans shall be redenominated and converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Alternate Currency Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the applicable Borrowers and the applicable Revolving Loan Lenders, as the case may be, of any such redenomination and conversion request.

Section 2.6 Funding. Each Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill its obligation to make, continue or convert LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder by causing one of its foreign branches or Affiliates (or an international banking facility created by such Lender) to make or maintain such LIBOR Rate Loan; provided that such LIBOR Rate Loan shall nonetheless be deemed to have been made and to be held by such Lender, and the obligation of the Borrowers to repay such LIBOR Rate Loan shall nevertheless be to such Lender for the account of such foreign branch, Affiliate or international banking facility. In addition, each Borrower hereby consents and agrees that, for purposes of any determination to be made for purposes of Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4 it shall be conclusively assumed that each Lender elected to fund all LIBOR Rate Loans by purchasing deposits in the relevant Currency in its Domestic Office’s interbank eurodollar market. Each Lender may, at its option, make any Loan available to any Designated Borrower by causing any foreign or domestic branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of such Designated Borrower to repay such Alternate Currency Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.7 Issuance Procedures. By delivering to the Administrative Agent an Issuance Request on or before 12:00 noon on a Business Day, the Borrowers may from time to time irrevocably request on not less than three nor more than ten Business Days’ notice, in the case of an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit and not less than three Business Days’ prior notice, in the case of a request for the extension of the Stated Expiry Date of a standby Letter of Credit (in each case, unless a shorter notice period is agreed to by the relevant Issuer, in its sole discretion), that an Issuer issue, or extend the Stated Expiry Date of, a Letter of Credit in such form as may be requested by the Borrowers and approved by such Issuer, solely for the purposes described in Section 7.1.7. Upon receipt of an Issuance Request, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Issuer whether, after giving effect to the issuance of the applicable Letter of Credit, (i) the Dollar Equivalent (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Outstandings would exceed the then existing Letter of Credit Commitment Amount and (ii) the sum of the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Outstandings plus the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans then outstanding would exceed the then existing Revolving Loan Commitment Amount. Each Letter of Credit shall by its terms be stated to expire on a date (its “Stated Expiry Date”) no later than the earlier to occur of (i) five Business Days prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date and (ii) (unless otherwise agreed to by an Issuer, in its sole discretion), thirteen months from the date of its issuance; provided that any Letter of Credit may provide for renewal periods of up to one year so long as such renewal periods do not exceed the date set forth in clause (i). Each Issuer will make available to the beneficiary thereof the original of the Letter of Credit which it issues. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Letters of Credit issued hereunder shall be subject to the customary procedures of the applicable Issuer.

Section 2.7.1 Other Lenders Participation. Upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, and without further action, each Revolving Loan Lender (other than the Issuer) shall be deemed to have irrevocably purchased, to the extent of its Revolving Loan Percentage, a participation interest in such

Letter of Credit (including the Contingent Liability and any Reimbursement Obligation with respect thereto), and such Revolving Loan Lender shall, to the extent of its Revolving Loan Percentage, be responsible for reimbursing the Issuer within one Business Day of receiving notice from the Issuer for Reimbursement Obligations which have not been reimbursed by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.7.2 and Section 2.7.3 (with the terms of this Section surviving the termination of this Agreement). In addition, such Revolving Loan Lender shall, to the extent of its Revolving Loan Percentage, be entitled to receive a ratable portion of the Letter of Credit fees payable pursuant to Section 3.3.3 with respect to each Letter of Credit (other than the issuance fees payable to the Issuer of such Letter of Credit pursuant to the last sentence of Section 3.3.3(b)) and of interest payable pursuant to Section 3.2 with respect to any Reimbursement Obligation. To the extent that any Revolving Loan Lender has reimbursed any Issuer for a Disbursement, such Lender shall be entitled to receive its ratable portion of any amounts subsequently received (from the Borrowers or otherwise) in respect of such Disbursement.

Section 2.7.2 Disbursements. An Issuer will notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly of the presentment of any drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuer, together with notice of the date (the “Disbursement Date”) such payment shall be made (each such payment, a “Disbursement”). Subject to the terms and provisions of such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuer shall make such payment to the beneficiary (or its designee) of such Letter of Credit. Prior to 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day following the Disbursement Date, the applicable Borrower will reimburse the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuer, for all amounts which such Issuer has disbursed under such Letter of Credit, such payments to be made in Dollars (and in the amount which is the Dollar Equivalent of any such payment or disbursement made or denominated in an Alternate Currency) together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the rate per annum then in effect for Base Rate Loans (with the then Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans accruing on such amount) pursuant to Section 3.2 for the period from the Disbursement Date through the date of such reimbursement. Without limiting in any way the foregoing and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any separate application for any Letter of Credit, each Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuer upon each Disbursement of a Letter of Credit, and it shall be deemed to be the obligor for purposes of each such Letter of Credit issued hereunder (whether the account party on such Letter of Credit is a Borrower or a Subsidiary).

Section 2.7.3 Reimbursement. The obligation (a “Reimbursement Obligation”) of the Borrowers under Section 2.7.2 to reimburse an Issuer with respect to each Disbursement (including interest thereon), and, upon the failure of the Borrowers to reimburse an Issuer, each Revolving Loan Lender’s obligation under Section 2.7.1 to reimburse an Issuer, shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrowers or such Revolving Loan Lender, as the case may be, may have or have had against such Issuer or any Lender, including any defense based upon the failure of any Disbursement to conform to the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit (if, in such Issuer’s good faith opinion, such Disbursement is determined to be appropriate); provided that after paying in full its Reimbursement Obligation hereunder, nothing herein shall adversely affect the right of the Borrowers or such Lender, as the case may be, to commence any proceeding against an Issuer for any wrongful Disbursement made by such Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Issuer.

Section 2.7.4 Cash Collateralization. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Default under Section 8.1.9 or upon notification by the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) to the Borrowers of its obligations under this Section, following the occurrence and during the continuation of any other Event of Default,

(a) the aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit shall, without demand upon or notice to the Borrowers or any other Person, be deemed to have been paid or disbursed by the Issuers of such Letters of Credit (notwithstanding that such amount may not in fact have been paid or disbursed); and

(b) the Borrowers shall be immediately obligated to reimburse the Issuers for the amount deemed to have been so paid or disbursed by such Issuers.

Amounts payable by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section shall be deposited in immediately available funds with the Administrative Agent and held as collateral security for the Reimbursement Obligations. When all Defaults giving rise to the deemed disbursements under this Section have been cured or waived the Administrative Agent shall return to the Borrowers all amounts then on deposit with the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section which have not been applied to the satisfaction of the Reimbursement Obligations.

Section 2.7.5 Nature of Reimbursement Obligations. The Borrowers, each other Obligor and, to the extent set forth in Section 2.7.1, each Revolving Loan Lender shall assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. No Issuer (except to the extent of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct) shall be responsible for:

(a) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Letter of Credit or any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of a Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if such Issuer shall have been notified thereof);

(b) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or the proceeds thereof in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason;

(c) failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to demand payment under a Letter of Credit or any other claim of the Borrowers against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among the Borrowers and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee;

(d) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher;

(e) any loss or delay in-the transmission or otherwise of any document or draft required in order to make a Disbursement under a Letter of Credit;

(f) errors in interpretation of technical terms;

(g) the misapplication or non-application by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or

(h) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuer, including any governmental acts and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of such Issuer’s rights or powers hereunder.

None of the foregoing shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the rights or powers granted to any Issuer or any Revolving Loan Lender hereunder. In furtherance and not in limitation or derogation of any of the foregoing, any action taken or omitted to be taken by an Issuer in good faith (and not constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct) shall be binding upon each Obligor and each Lender, and shall not put such Issuer under any resulting liability to any Obligor or any Lender, as the case may be.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Issuer (i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by such Issuer to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit, (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by such Issuer; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located; and (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on such Issuer in any way related to any order issued at the applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each an “Order”) and honor any drawing in connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject of such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit.

Section 2.8 Register; Notes. The Register shall be maintained on the following terms.

(a) The Borrowers hereby designate the Administrative Agent to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which the Administrative Agent will record the applicable Commitment of each Lender, the applicable Loans made by each Lender and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of such Loans, annexed to which the relevant Administrative Agent shall retain a copy of each Lender Assignment Agreement delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.11. Failure to make any recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Obligor’s Obligations. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person in whose name a Loan is registered (or, if applicable, to which a Note has been issued) as the owner thereof for the purposes of all Loan Documents, notwithstanding notice or any provision herein to the contrary. Any assignment or transfer of a Commitment or the Loans made pursuant hereto shall be registered in the Register only upon delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Lender Assignment Agreement that has been executed by the requisite parties pursuant to Section 10.11. No assignment or transfer of a Lender’s Commitment or Loans shall be effective unless such assignment or transfer shall have been recorded in the Register by the Administrative Agent as provided in this Section.

(b) Each Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, such Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender a Note evidencing the Loans made by, and payable to, such Lender in a maximum principal amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the original applicable Commitment Amount. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations

on the grid attached to such Lender’s Note (or on any continuation of such grid), which notations, if made, shall evidence, inter alia, the date of, the outstanding principal amount of, and the interest rate and Interest Period applicable to the Loans evidenced thereby. Such notations shall, to the extent not inconsistent with notations made by the Administrative Agent in the Register, be conclusive and binding on each Obligor absent manifest error; provided that the failure of any Lender to make any such notations shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of any Obligor.

Section 2.9 Designated Borrowers.

(a) The Company may at any time, upon not less than thirty Business Days’ notice from the Company to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), designate one or more wholly-owned Subsidiaries organized under the laws of The Kingdom of the Netherlands (each an “Applicant Borrower”), as a Designated Borrower to receive Alternate Currency Loans hereunder by delivering to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver counterparts thereof to each applicable Lender) a duly executed notice and agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit H-1 (a “Designated Borrower Request and Assumption Agreement”). The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that prior to any Applicant Borrower becoming entitled to become a Designated Borrower the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received such supporting resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information, in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as may be required by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders in their sole discretion, and Notes signed by such new Borrowers to the extent any Lenders so require. Promptly following receipt of all such documents or information, the Administrative Agent shall send a notice in substantially the form of Exhibit H-2 (a “Designated Borrower Notice”) to the Company, the Issuer and the Lenders specifying the effective date upon which the Applicant Borrower shall constitute a Designated Borrower for purposes hereof, whereupon each of the Lenders agrees to permit such Designated Borrower to receive Alternate Currency Loans hereunder, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and each of the parties agrees that such Designated Borrower otherwise shall be a Borrower for all purposes of this Agreement.

(b) To the extent each Foreign Subsidiary and each Designated Borrower has not already executed a Subsidiary Guaranty and granted and perfected Liens over its assets to secure all of the Obligations, each Designated Borrower will cause each of its Subsidiaries to execute a Subsidiary Guaranty (Foreign) guaranteeing the Obligations of such Designated Borrower and each Designated Borrower will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to execute any documentation and take all other actions deemed reasonably necessary by the Collateral Agent to secure the Obligations of such Designated Borrower and such Subsidiaries hereunder or under such Subsidiary Guaranty (Foreign), as applicable and grant Liens on such Person’s assets, in a manner and to the extent that a U.S. Subsidiary is required to secure its Obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty (Domestic) pursuant to the terms hereof and the Subsidiary Guaranty (Domestic) and will otherwise comply with Section 7.1.8.

(c) Each Subsidiary of the Company that becomes a “Designated Borrower” pursuant to this Section hereby irrevocably appoints the Company as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, including (i) the giving and receipt of notices, (ii) the execution and delivery of all documents, instruments and certificates contemplated herein and all modifications hereto, and (iii) the receipt of the proceeds of any Alternate Currency Loans made by the Lenders, to any such Designated Borrower hereunder. Any acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification or other action which might otherwise be

valid or effective only if given or taken by all Borrowers, or by each Borrower acting singly, shall be valid and effective if given or taken only by the Company, whether or not any such other Borrower joins therein. Any notice, demand, consent, acknowledgement, direction, certification or other communication delivered to the Company in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been delivered to each Designated Borrower.

(d) The Company may from time to time, upon not less than thirty Business Days’ notice from the Company to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), terminate a Designated Borrower’s status as such; provided that there are no outstanding Alternate Currency Loans payable by such Designated Borrower, or other amounts payable by such Designated Borrower on account of any Alternate Currency Loans made to it, as of the effective date of such termination. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Issuer and the Lenders of any such termination of a Designated Borrower’s status.

Section 2.10 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Revolving Loan Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Revolving Loan Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) If a Revolving Loan Lender has any Letter of Credit Outstandings (other than any Letter of Credit Outstandings described in clause (b) of the definition thereof that have been funded by such Defaulting Lender) or if Swing Line Loans are outstanding at any time such Revolving Loan Lender is a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) all or any part of such Letter of Credit Outstandings (other than any Letter of Credit Outstandings described in clause (b) of the definition thereof that have been funded by such Defaulting Lender) and/or participations in Swing Line Loans shall be reallocated among the Revolving Loan Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Loan Percentage of the Letter of Credit Outstandings and/or participations in Swing Line Loans but only to the extent (x) the sum of (1) the principal amount of outstanding Revolving Loans of all Revolving Loan Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders, (2) the Letter of Credit Outstandings of all Revolving Loan Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders and (3) the participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans of all Revolving Loan Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders, including their pro rata shares of the Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Outstandings (other than any Letter of Credit Outstandings described in clause (b) of the definition thereof that have been funded by such Defaulting Lender) and participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans, does not exceed the total Revolving Loan Commitments of all Revolving Loan Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders, (y) the sum of (1) the principal amount of outstanding Revolving Loans of any Revolving Loan Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender, (2) the Letter of Credit Outstandings of such Revolving Loan Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender and (3) the participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans of such Revolving Loan Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender, including its pro rata share of the Defaulting Lender’s allocated Letter of Credit Outstandings (other than any Letter of Credit Outstandings described in clause (b) of the definition thereof that have been funded by such Defaulting Lender) and/or Swing Line Loans, does not exceed the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Revolving Loan Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender, and (z) the conditions set forth in Section 5.2.1 are satisfied at such time;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Company shall, within ten Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent, deposit cash collateral in an amount equal to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Outstandings (other than any Letter of Credit Outstandings described in clause (b) of the definition thereof that have been funded by such Defaulting Lender) and participations in Swing Line Loans (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) into a cash collateral account maintained with (and subject to documentation reasonably satisfactory to) the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties (and over which the Collateral Agent shall have a first priority perfected Lien), for so long as such Letter of Credit Outstandings and/or participations in Swing Line Loans are outstanding; and

(iii) if the Letter of Credit Outstandings of the Revolving Loan Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders are reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.10(a), then the fees payable to the Revolving Loan Lenders pursuant to Section 3.3.3 shall be adjusted in accordance with such Revolving Loan Lenders’ Revolving Loan Percentage.

(b) So long as any Revolving Loan Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Issuer shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Loan Commitments of the Revolving Loan Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders or cash collateral will be provided by the Company satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuer, and participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among Revolving Loan Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.10(a)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein) and any unallocated Letter of Credit Outstandings of the Defaulting Lender shall be cash collateralized, and (ii) the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to make Swing Line Loans, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Loan Commitments of the Revolving Loan Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders or cash collateral will be provided by the Company satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender, and participating interests in any newly made Swing Line Loans shall be allocated among Revolving Loan Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.10(a)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein) and any unallocated participations in Swing Line Loans of the Defaulting Lender shall be cash collateralized.

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Company, the Issuer and the Swing Line Lender each agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Revolving Loan Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Letter of Credit Outstandings and/or participations in Swing Line Loans of the Revolving Loan Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitments, and on such date the Administrative Agent shall return to the Company any cash collateral that has been granted pursuant to this Section 2.10.

Section 2.11 Increases in Revolving Loan Commitments.

Pursuant to the following terms, the Company may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request an increase in the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount in an amount not to exceed the Additional Revolving Loan Amount from one or more financial institutions, each of which shall be Eligible Assignees and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(a) Such written notice shall set forth (a) the amount of the increase in the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of $1,000,000 and a minimum amount of $25,000,000 or such lesser amount equal to the remaining Additional Revolving Loan Amount) and (b) the date on which such increase in the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount is requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice).

(b) The Company may seek additional Revolving Loan Commitments from existing Lenders (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in its sole discretion) and other Eligible Assignees (each of which shall be subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) which will become Revolving Loan Lenders in connection therewith. The Borrower and each Person providing an additional Revolving Loan Commitment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the additional Revolving Loan Commitment of each such Person. The terms and provisions of additional Revolving Loans made under such additional Revolving Loans Commitments shall be identical to those of the existing Revolving Loans. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each increase in the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any increase in the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the increase in the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, and the Administrative Agent and the Company may revise this Agreement to evidence such amendments. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may, in consultation with the Company, take any and all action (including pursuant to amendments as specified in this Section 2.11) as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that, upon the effectiveness of each increase in the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, (i) all Borrowings and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis and (ii) all Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit shall be participated in on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Revolving Loan Commitments.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount shall become effective under this Section 2.11 unless (i) on the date of such effectiveness, (x) the conditions set forth in clauses (a) and (b) of Section 5.2.1 shall be satisfied and (y), on a pro forma basis and for the most recent determination period, each of the financial covenants set forth in Section 7.2.4 shall be satisfied, and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to this effect dated such date and executed by the applicable Designated Borrower’s Secretary or Assistant Secretary, managing member or general partner, as applicable, and (ii) the Administrative Agent and the Eligible Assignee providing such additional Revolving Loan Commitments shall have received the fees and expenses owing in respect of such increase.

ARTICLE III
REPAYMENTS, PREPAYMENTS, INTEREST AND FEES

Section 3.1 Repayments and Prepayments; Application. The Borrowers agree that the Loans shall be repaid and prepaid pursuant to the following terms.

Section 3.1.1 Repayments and Prepayments. The Borrowers shall repay in full the unpaid principal amount of each Loan upon the applicable Stated Maturity Date therefor. Prior thereto, payments and prepayments of the Loans shall or may be made as set forth below.

(a) From time to time on any Business Day, the Borrowers may make a voluntary prepayment, in whole or in part, of the outstanding principal amount of any:

(i) Loans (other than Swing Line Loans); provided that:

(A) any such prepayment shall be made pro rata among Loans of the same type and denominated in the same Currency, if applicable, having the same Interest Period of all Lenders that have made such Loans;

(B) no such prepayment of any LIBOR Rate Loan may be made on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan unless payments required, if any, pursuant to Section 4.4 are made; and

(C) all such voluntary partial prepayments shall, in the case of Base Rate Loans, be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and an integral multiple of $100,000, and in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000; and

(ii) Swing Line Loans; provided that (A) all such voluntary prepayments shall require prior telephonic notice to the Swing Line Lender on or before 1:00 p.m. on the day of such prepayment (such notice to be confirmed in writing within 24 hours thereafter); (B) all such voluntary partial prepayments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $500,000 and an integral multiple of $100,000; and (C) no such prepayment of any Daily LIBOR Rate Loans may be made on any day other than the maturity date for such Loan unless payments required, if any, pursuant to Section 4.4 are made.

(b) On each date when the aggregate Revolving Exposure of all Revolving Loan Lenders exceeds the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount (as it may be reduced from time to time pursuant to this Agreement), the Borrowers shall make a mandatory prepayment of Revolving Loans or Swing Line Loans (or both) and, if necessary, Cash Collateralize all Letter of Credit Outstandings, in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

(c) Concurrently with the receipt by the Company of any Net Equity Proceeds, the Company shall make, or cause to be made, a mandatory prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to the product of (i) such Net Equity Proceeds multiplied by (ii) the applicable Proceeds Reduction Percentage, to be applied as set forth in Section 3.1.2.

(d) Concurrently with the receipt by the Company or any Subsidiary of any Net Debt Proceeds, the Company shall make, or cause to be made, a mandatory prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Debt Proceeds, to be applied as set forth in Section 3.1.2.

(e) With respect to Net Disposition Proceeds and Net Casualty Proceeds, within five Business Days following receipt by the Company or any Subsidiary of any Net Disposition Proceeds resulting from Dispositions made pursuant to clause (c) of Section 7.2.8 or any Net Casualty Proceeds, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a calculation of the amount of such proceeds and the Company shall make, or cause to be made, a mandatory prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section 3.1.2 in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Disposition Proceeds or Net Casualty Proceeds; provided that upon written notice by the Company to the Administrative Agent not more than five Business Days following receipt of any Net Disposition Proceeds resulting from a Disposition or series of related Dispositions or receipt of any Net Casualty Proceeds (in each case, so long as no Default has occurred and is

continuing), such proceeds may be retained by the Company and its Subsidiaries (which retained proceeds (i) shall be excluded from the prepayment requirements of this clause and (ii) may, in the Company’s discretion, be used to repay the outstanding Revolving Loans without a corresponding permanent reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount pending reinvestment in accordance with the terms hereof) if:

(A) the Company informs the Administrative Agent in such notice of its good faith intention to apply (or cause one or more of the Subsidiary Guarantors to apply) such Net Disposition Proceeds or Net Casualty Proceeds to the acquisition of other assets or properties; provided that such acquired assets or properties are owned by the Company or a Subsidiary, the Capital Securities of which has been pledged to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties (and, with respect to such Capital Securities, over which the Collateral Agent shall have a first priority perfected Lien) pursuant to the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents, consistent with the businesses permitted to be conducted pursuant to Section 7.2.1 (including by way of merger or Investment); and

(B) within one year following the receipt of such Net Disposition Proceeds or within 180 days following receipt of such Net Casualty Proceeds, such proceeds are applied or committed to such application.

The amount of such Net Disposition Proceeds or Net Casualty Proceeds unused or uncommitted after such one year or 180 day period, as applicable, shall be applied to prepay the Loans as set forth in Section 3.1.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the application of Net Disposition Proceeds or Net Casualty Proceeds by any Foreign Subsidiary to repay the Loans as required by this clause would result in a materially increased Tax liability for the Company (as reasonably determined by the Company in consultation with the Administrative Agent), such Foreign Subsidiary shall not be required to apply such Net Disposition Proceeds or such Net Casualty Proceeds to prepay the Loans.

(f) Immediately upon any acceleration of the Stated Maturity Date of any Loans pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3, the Borrowers shall repay all the Loans, unless, pursuant to Section 8.3, only a portion of all the Loans is so accelerated (in which case the portion so accelerated shall be so repaid).

Each prepayment of any Loans made pursuant to this Section shall be without premium or penalty, except as may be required by Section 4.4.

Section 3.1.2 Application. Amounts prepaid pursuant to Section 3.1.1 shall be applied as set forth in this Section.

(a) Subject to clause (b) and clause (c) set forth below, each prepayment or repayment of the principal of the Loans shall be applied, to the extent of such prepayment or repayment, first, to the principal amount thereof being maintained as Base Rate Loans, and second, subject to the terms of Section 4.4, to the principal amount thereof being maintained as LIBOR Rate Loans.

(b) Each prepayment of the Revolving Loans made pursuant to Section 3.1.1 shall be applied to the repayment of any outstanding Revolving Loans (without a corresponding reduction to the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount).

(c) If the amount of any mandatory prepayment to be applied to outstanding Revolving Loans is in excess of the total amount of outstanding Revolving Loans at the time of such prepayment, such excess amount may be retained by the Company and the Subsidiaries to be used for general corporate purposes to the extent not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement. The Company shall give prior written notice to the Administrative Agent of any mandatory prepayment made in connection with clause (d) of Section 3.1.1 (including the date and an estimate of the aggregate amount of such mandatory prepayment) at least five Business Days prior thereto; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Company of its obligations to make such mandatory prepayments.

Section 3.2 Interest Provisions. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Loans shall accrue and be payable in accordance with the terms set forth below.

Section 3.2.1 Rates. Subject to Section 2.3.2, pursuant to an appropriately delivered Borrowing Request or Continuation/Conversion Notice, the Borrowers may elect that the Loans comprising a Borrowing accrue interest at a rate per annum:

(a) on that portion maintained from time to time as a Base Rate Loan, equal to the sum of the Alternate Base Rate from time to time in effect plus the Applicable Margin; provided that Swing Line Loans made as Base Rate Loans shall always accrue interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the then effective Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans maintained as Base Rate Loans;

(b) on that portion maintained from time to time as a Daily LIBOR Rate Loan, equal to the sum of the Daily LIBOR Rate from time to time in effect plus the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Rate Loans; and

(c) on that portion maintained as a LIBOR Rate Loan, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, equal to the sum of the LIBOR Rate applicable to the Currency in which such Loans are denominated for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.

All LIBOR Rate Loans shall bear interest from and including the first day of the applicable Interest Period to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined as applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan.

Section 3.2.2 Post-Default Rates. After the date any Event of Default has occurred and for so long as such Event of Default is continuing, each Borrower, as applicable, shall pay (in the applicable Currency), at the election of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, but only to the extent permitted by law, interest (after as well as before judgment) on all outstanding Obligations (other than any Hedging Obligations or Cash Management Obligations) at a rate per annum equal to (a) in the case of principal on any Loan, the rate of interest that otherwise would be applicable to such Loan plus 2% per annum; and (b) in the case of overdue interest, fees, and such other monetary Obligations, the Alternate Base Rate from time to time in effect, plus the Applicable Margin for Loans accruing interest at the Alternate Base Rate, plus a margin of 2% per annum.

Section 3.2.3 Payment Dates. Interest accrued on each Loan shall be payable, without duplication:

(a) on the Stated Maturity Date therefor;

(b) on the date of any payment or prepayment, in whole or in part, of principal outstanding on such Loan on the principal amount so paid or prepaid;

(d) with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, on the last day of each applicable Interest Period (and, if such Interest Period shall exceed three months, on the date occurring on each three-month interval occurring after the first day of such Interest Period);

(e) with respect to any Base Rate Loans converted into LIBOR Rate Loans, on a day when interest would not otherwise have been payable pursuant to clause (c) on the date of such conversion;

(f) with respect to any Daily LIBOR Rate Loan, at the end of each month; and

(g) on that portion of any Loans the Stated Maturity Date of which is accelerated pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3, immediately upon such acceleration.

Interest accrued on Loans or other monetary Obligations (other than Hedging Obligations and Cash Management Obligations) after the date such amount is due and payable (whether on the Stated Maturity Date, upon acceleration or otherwise) shall be payable upon demand.

Section 3.3 Fees. The Company agrees to pay the fees set forth below. All such fees shall be non-refundable.

Section 3.3.1 Commitment Fees. The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Loan Lender (other than Defaulting Lenders), for the period (including any portion thereof when any of its Commitments are suspended by reason of the Borrowers’ inability to satisfy any condition of Article V) commencing on the Closing Date and continuing through the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, a commitment fee in an amount equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Margin, in each case on such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the sum of the average daily unused portion of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount (net of Letter of Credit Outstandings). The making of Swing Line Loans shall not constitute usage of the Revolving Loan Commitment with respect to the calculation of commitment fees to be paid by the Company to the Lenders; provided that only for purposes of calculating such commitment fee payable to a Revolving Loan Lender that is also the Swing Line Lender, the outstanding amount of Swing Line Loans shall be deemed to be borrowed amounts under such Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment. All commitment fees payable pursuant to this Section shall be calculated on a year comprised of 360 days and payable by the Company in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date, commencing with the first Quarterly Payment Date following the Closing Date, and on the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date.

Section 3.3.2 Administrative Agent’s Fee. The Company agrees to pay to PNC Bank and its affiliates, for their own respective accounts, the fees in the amounts and on the dates set forth in the Engagement Letter.

Section 3.3.3 Letter of Credit Fees.

(a) The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the pro rata account of the applicable Issuer and each Revolving Loan Lender (other than Defaulting Lenders), a Letter of Credit fee in a per annum amount equal to the then effective Applicable Margin for

Revolving Loans maintained as LIBOR Rate Loans, multiplied by the Stated Amount of each such Letter of Credit made in respect of the Revolving Loan Commitment, such fees being payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date following the date of issuance of each such Letter of Credit and on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, in each case such fee being paid in the currency in which the applicable Letter of Credit was issued.

(b) The Borrowers agree to pay directly to each Issuer a fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by it (a “Fronting Fee”), computed for each day at a rate per annum equal to 0.125% of the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit issued by such Issuer which is outstanding on such day, together customary issuance and administration fees of the Issuer. Accrued Fronting Fees and such customary issuance and administration fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and on the Stated Maturity Date for Revolving Loans (to the extent such Letter of Credit remains outstanding).

All Letter of Credit fees payable pursuant to this Section shall be calculated on a year comprised of 360 days.

ARTICLE IV
CERTAIN LIBOR RATE AND OTHER PROVISIONS

Section 4.1 LIBOR Rate Lending Unlawful. If any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, upon notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers) that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law makes it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender to make or continue any Loan as, or to convert any Loan into, a LIBOR Rate Loan, the obligations of such Lender to make, continue or convert any such LIBOR Rate Loan shall, upon such determination, forthwith be suspended until such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and (a) all outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in Dollars payable to such Lender shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans at the end of the then current Interest Periods with respect thereto or sooner, if required by such law or assertion, and (b) all LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in any Alternate Currency shall automatically become due and payable at the end of the then current Interest Periods with respect thereto or sooner, if required by applicable law.

Section 4.2 Deposits Unavailable. If the Administrative Agent shall have determined that:

(a) Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant Interest Period are not available to it in its relevant market; or

(b) by reason of circumstances affecting its relevant market, adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable hereunder to LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in any Currency;

then, upon notice from the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers and the Lenders, the obligations of all Lenders under Section 2.3 and Section 2.4 to make or continue any Loans as, or to convert any Loans into, LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in such Currency shall forthwith be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

Section 4.3 Increased LIBOR Rate Loan Costs, etc. The Borrowers agree to reimburse each Lender and Issuer for any increase in the cost to such Lender or Issuer of, or any reduction in the amount of any sum receivable by such Secured Party in respect of, such Secured Party’s Commitments

and the making of Credit Extensions hereunder (including the making, continuing or maintaining (or of its obligation to make or continue) any Loans as, or of converting (or of its obligation to convert) any Loans into, LIBOR Rate Loans) that arise in connection with any change in, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, interpretation, reinterpretation or phase-in after the Closing Date of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority, except for such changes with respect to increased capital costs and Taxes which are governed by Sections 4.5 and 4.6 respectively. Each affected Secured Party shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in writing of the occurrence of any such event, stating the reasons therefor and the additional amount required fully to compensate such Secured Party for such increased cost or reduced amount. Such additional amounts shall be payable by the Borrowers directly to such Secured Party within five Business Days of its receipt of such notice, and such notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers.

Section 4.4 Funding Losses. In the event any Lender shall incur any loss or expense (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to make any Swing Line Loan as a Daily LIBOR Rate Loan or to make or continue any portion of the principal amount of any Loan as, or to convert any portion of the principal amount of any Loan into, a LIBOR Rate Loan) as a result of

(a) any (i) conversion or repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of any LIBOR Rate Loan on a date other than the scheduled last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (ii) repayment or prepayment of any Daily LIBOR Rate Loan on a date other than the applicable maturity date thereof, in each case, whether pursuant to Article III or otherwise;

(b) any Loans not being made as LIBOR Rate Loans or Daily LIBOR Rate Loans in accordance with the Borrowing Request therefor; or

(c) any Loans not being continued as, or converted into, LIBOR Rate Loans in accordance with the Continuation/Conversion Notice therefor;

then, upon the written notice of such Lender to the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall, within five Business Days of its receipt thereof, pay directly to such Lender such amount as will (in the reasonable determination of such Lender) reimburse such Lender for such loss or expense. Such written notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers.

Section 4.5 Increased Capital Costs.

(a) If any change in, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, interpretation, reinterpretation or phase-in of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Secured Party or any Person controlling such Secured Party, and such Secured Party determines (in good faith but in its sole and absolute discretion) that the rate of return on its or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of the Commitments or the Credit Extensions made, or the Letters of Credit participated in, by such Secured Party is reduced to a level below that which such Secured Party or such controlling Person could have achieved but for the occurrence of any such circumstance, then upon notice from time to time by such Secured Party to the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall within five Business Days following receipt of such notice pay directly to such Secured Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Secured Party or such controlling Person for such reduction in rate of return. A statement of such Secured Party as to any such additional amount or amounts shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the

Borrowers. In determining such amount, such Secured Party may use any method of averaging and attribution that it (in its sole and absolute discretion) shall deem applicable.

(b) Further, if any Change in Law subjects any Secured Party or any Person controlling such Secured Party to any Tax with respect to this Agreement or any obligation or right hereunder, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to such Secured Party or any person controlling such Secured Party in respect thereof, (except for (i) Taxes which are indemnifiable or otherwise covered by Section 4.6, and (ii) the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, (x) any net income and franchise Taxes imposed with respect to any Secured Party by any Governmental Authority under the laws of which such Secured Party is organized or in which it maintains its applicable lending office or (y) Taxes which would be indemnifiable under Section 4.6 but for Section 4.6(f)), the Company shall pay to such party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such party for such Tax.

Section 4.6 Taxes. The Company covenants and agrees as follows with respect to Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on behalf of the Borrowers under each Loan Document shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense, and free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes. In the event that any Taxes are imposed and required to be deducted or withheld from any payment required to be made by any Obligor to or on behalf of any Secured Party under any Loan Document, then:

(i) subject to clause (f), if such Taxes are Non-Excluded Taxes, the amount payable by the Borrower shall be increased as may be necessary so that such payment is made, after withholding or deduction for or on account of such Taxes, in an amount that is not less than the amount provided for in such Loan Document; and

(ii) the Borrowers shall withhold the full amount of such Taxes from such payment (as increased pursuant to clause (a)(i) of this Section) and shall pay such amount to the Governmental Authority imposing such Taxes in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay all Other Taxes imposed to the relevant Governmental Authority imposing such Other Taxes in accordance with applicable law.

(c) As promptly as practicable after the payment of any Taxes or Other Taxes, and in any event within 45 days of any such payment being due, the Borrowers shall furnish to the Administrative Agent a copy of an official receipt (or a certified copy thereof) evidencing the payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes. The Administrative Agent shall make copies thereof available to any Lender upon request therefor.

(d) Subject to clause (f), the Company, shall indemnify each Secured Party for any Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes levied, imposed or assessed on (and whether or not paid directly by) the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Promptly upon having knowledge that any such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes have been levied, imposed or assessed, and promptly upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party, the Company shall pay such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes directly to the relevant Governmental Authority (provided that no Secured Party shall be under any obligation to provide any such notice to the Company). In addition, the Company shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Secured Party for any incremental Taxes that may become payable by such Secured Party as a result of any failure of the Borrowers to pay any

Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or to deliver to the Administrative Agent, pursuant to clause (c), documentation evidencing the payment of Taxes or Other Taxes. With respect to indemnification for Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes actually paid by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party or the indemnification provided in the immediately preceding sentence, such indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party makes written demand therefor. The Borrowers acknowledge that any payment made to the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party or to any Governmental Authority in respect of the indemnification obligations of the Borrowers provided in this clause (d) shall constitute a payment in respect of which the provisions of clause (a) and this clause shall apply.

(e) Each Non-U.S. Lender, on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, but only for so long as such Non-U.S. Lender is legally entitled to do so), shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent, either (i) two duly completed copies of either (x) IRS Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility of the Non-U.S. Lender for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party or (y) IRS Form W-8ECI, W-8EXP or W-8IMY (together with any required attachments), or in any case an applicable successor form; or (ii) (x) a certificate to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a controlled foreign corporation receiving interest from a related person within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (referred to as an “Exemption Certificate”) and (y) two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or applicable successor form.

(f) No Borrower shall be obligated to pay any additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to clause (a)(i), or to indemnify any Lender pursuant to clause (d), in respect of United States federal withholding taxes to the extent imposed as a result of (i) the failure of such Lender to deliver to the Borrowers the form or forms and/or an Exemption Certificate, as applicable to such Lender, pursuant to clause (e), (ii) such form or forms and/or Exemption Certificate not establishing a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax or the information or certifications made therein by the Lender being untrue or inaccurate on the date delivered in any material respect, or (iii) the Lender designating a successor lending office at which it maintains its Loans which has the effect of causing such Lender to become obligated for tax payments in excess of those in effect immediately prior to such designation; provided that the Borrowers shall be obligated to pay additional amounts to any such Lender pursuant to clause (a)(i), and to indemnify any such Lender pursuant to clause (d), in respect of United States federal withholding taxes if (i) any such failure to deliver a form or forms or an Exemption Certificate or the failure of such form or forms or Exemption Certificate to establish a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax or inaccuracy or untruth contained therein resulted from a change in any applicable statute, treaty, regulation or other applicable law or any interpretation of any of the foregoing occurring after the Closing Date, which change rendered such Lender no longer legally entitled to deliver such form or forms or Exemption Certificate or otherwise ineligible for a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax, or rendered the information or certifications made in such form or forms or Exemption Certificate untrue or inaccurate in a material respect, (ii) the redesignation of the Lender’s lending office was made at the request of the Borrowers or (iii) the obligation to pay any additional amounts to any such Lender pursuant to clause (a)(i) or to indemnify any such Lender pursuant to clause (d) is with respect to an assignee Lender that becomes an assignee Lender as a result of an assignment made at the request of the Borrowers.

Section 4.7 Payments, Computations; Proceeds of Collateral, etc.

(a) Unless otherwise expressly provided in a Loan Document, all payments by the Borrowers pursuant to each Loan Document shall be made by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent for the pro rata account of the Secured Parties entitled to receive such payment. All payments shall be made without setoff, deduction or counterclaim not later than 12:00 noon on the date due in same day or immediately available funds, in the applicable Currency, to such account as the Administrative Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the Borrowers. Funds received after that time shall, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent on the next succeeding Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit in same day funds to each Secured Party its share, if any, of such payments received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Secured Party. All interest (including interest on LIBOR Rate Loans) 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 for which such interest or fee is payable over a year comprised of 360 days (or, in the case of interest on a Base Rate Loan, 365 days or, if appropriate, 366 days); provided that to the extent the current market practice is to compute interest and/or fees in respect of any Alternate Currency or any Loan denominated in any Alternate Currency in a manner other than as set forth above, all interest and fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of such market practice, as certified to the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent. Payments due on other than a Business Day shall (except as otherwise required by clause (c) of the definition of “Interest Period”) be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees in connection with that payment.

(b) All amounts received as a result of the exercise of remedies under the Loan Documents (including from the proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon, all or any part of the collateral securing the Obligations, which proceeds shall be paid over to the Administrative Agent) or under applicable law shall be applied upon receipt by the Administrative Agent to the Obligations as follows:

(i) first ratably to the payment of all Obligations owing to the Agents, in their capacity as Agents (including the fees and expenses of counsel to the Agents),

(ii) second, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clause (b)(i), to the ratable payment of all interest (including interest accruing after the commencement of a proceeding in bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, whether or not permitted as a claim under such law) and fees owing under the Loan Documents, and all costs and expenses owing to the Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, until paid in full in cash,

(iii) third, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clauses (b)(i) and (b)(ii), to the ratable payment of the principal amount of the Loans then outstanding, the aggregate Reimbursement Obligations then owing, the Cash Collateralization for contingent liabilities under Letter of Credit Outstandings, the Cash Management Obligations and the credit exposure owing to Secured Parties under Rate Protection Agreements,

(iv) fourth, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(iii), to the ratable payment of all other Obligations owing to the Secured Parties, and

(v) fifth, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(iv), and following the Termination Date, to each applicable Obligor or any other Person lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

For purposes of clause (b)(iii), the “credit exposure” at any time of any Secured Party with respect to a Rate Protection Agreement to which such Secured Party is a party shall be determined at such time in accordance with the customary methods of calculating credit exposure under similar arrangements by the counterparty to such arrangements, taking into account potential interest rate (or, if applicable, currency) movements and the respective termination provisions and notional principal amount and term of such Rate Protection Agreement.

Section 4.8 Sharing of Payments. Subject to the express provisions of this Agreement which require, or permit, differing payments to be made to non-Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting Lenders, if any Secured Party shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of setoff or otherwise) on account of any Credit Extension or Reimbursement Obligation (other than pursuant to the terms of Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5 or 4.6) in excess of its pro rata share of payments obtained by all Secured Parties, such Secured Party shall purchase from the other Secured Parties such participations in Credit Extensions made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Secured Party to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably (to the extent such other Secured Parties were entitled to receive a portion of such payment or recovery) with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Secured Party, the purchase shall be rescinded and each Secured Party which has sold a participation to the purchasing Secured Party shall repay to the purchasing Secured Party the purchase price to the ratable extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such selling Secured Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such selling Secured Party’s required repayment to the purchasing Secured Party to (b) total amount so recovered from the purchasing Secured Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Secured Party in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrowers agree that any Secured Party purchasing a participation from another Secured Party pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including pursuant to Section 4.9) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Secured Party were the direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law any Secured Party receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section applies, such Secured Party shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Secured Parties entitled under this Section to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

Section 4.9 Setoff. Each Secured Party shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default described in Section 8.1.1 or clauses (a) through (d) of Section 8.1.9 or, with the consent of the Required Lenders, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, have the right to appropriate and apply to the payment of the Obligations (whether or not then due), and (as security for such Obligations) each Borrower hereby grants to each Secured Party a continuing security interest in, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of such Borrower then or thereafter maintained with such Secured Party; provided that any such appropriation and application shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4.8. Each Secured Party agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent after any such appropriation and application made by such Secured Party; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Secured Party under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff under applicable law or otherwise) which such Secured Party may have.

Section 4.10 Removal of Lenders. If any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) (a) fails to consent to an election, consent, amendment, waiver or other modification to this Agreement or other Loan Document that requires the consent of a greater percentage of the Lenders than the Required Lenders and such election, consent, amendment, waiver or other modification is otherwise consented to by the Required Lenders, (b) makes a demand upon the Company for (or if the Company is otherwise required to pay) amounts pursuant to Section 4.3, 4.5 or 4.6 (and the payment of such amounts are, and are likely to continue to be, more onerous in the reasonable judgment of the Company than with respect to the other Lenders), or gives notice pursuant to Section 4.1 requiring a conversion of such Affected Lender’s LIBOR Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans or suspending such Lender’s obligation to make Loans as, or to convert Loans into, LIBOR Rate Loans, or (c) becomes a Defaulting Lender, the Company may, within 30 days of such consent by the Required Lenders, such receipt by the Company of such demand or notice or such Lender becoming a Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, give notice (a “Replacement Notice”) in writing to the Administrative Agent and such Affected Lender of its intention to cause such Affected Lender to sell all or any portion of its Loans, Commitments and/or Notes to an Eligible Assignee (a “Replacement Lender”) designated in such Replacement Notice; provided that no Replacement Notice may be given by the Company if (i) such replacement conflicts with any applicable law or regulation, (ii) any Event of Default (other than, in the case of the replacement of a Defaulting Lender, as a result of the failure of the Company to satisfy its cash collateralization obligations pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(ii)) shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement or (iii) prior to any such replacement, such Lender shall have taken any necessary action under Section 4.5 or 4.6 (if applicable) so as to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 4.5 or 4.6. If the Administrative Agent shall, in the exercise of its reasonable discretion and within 30 days of its receipt of such Replacement Notice, notify the Company and such Affected Lender in writing that the Replacement Lender is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (such consent not being required where the Replacement Lender is already a Lender), then such Affected Lender shall, subject to the payment of any amounts due pursuant to Section 4.4, assign, in accordance with Section 10.11, the portion of its Commitments, Loans, Notes (if any) and other rights and obligations under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents (including Reimbursement Obligations, if applicable) designated in the Replacement Notice to such Replacement Lender; provided that (i) such assignment shall be without recourse, representation or warranty and shall be on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to such Affected Lender and such Replacement Lender, (ii) the purchase price paid by such Replacement Lender shall be in the amount of such Affected Lender’s Loans designated in the Replacement Notice and/or its Revolving Loan Percentage of outstanding Reimbursement Obligations, as applicable, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees in respect thereof, plus all other amounts (including the amounts demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 4.3, 4.5 and 4.6), owing to such Affected Lender hereunder and (iii) the Company shall pay to the Affected Lender and the Administrative Agent all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Affected Lender and the Administrative Agent in connection with such assignment and assumption (including the processing fees described in Section 10.11). Upon the effective date of an assignment described above, the Replacement Lender shall become a “Lender” for all purposes under the Loan Documents. Each Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender as assignor, any assignment agreement necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section.

Section 4.11 Guaranty by the Company. The Company acknowledges and agrees that, whether or not specifically indicated as such in a Loan Document, all Designated Borrower Obligations shall be joint and several Obligations of the Company, and in furtherance of such joint and several Obligations, the Company hereby irrevocably guarantees the payment of all Designated Borrower Obligations of each Designated Borrower as set forth below.

Section 4.11.1 Guaranty. The Company hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the full and punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all Designated Borrower Obligations. This guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection, and the Company specifically agrees that it shall not be necessary or required that any Secured Party exercise any right, assert any claim or demand or enforce any remedy whatsoever against any Obligor or any other Person before or as a condition to the obligations of the Company hereunder.

Section 4.11.2 Guaranty Absolute, etc. The guaranty agreed to above shall in all respects be a continuing, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable guaranty of payment, and shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date. The Company guarantees that the Designated Borrower Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of each Loan Document under which such Designated Borrower Obligations arise, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Secured Party with respect thereto. The liability of the Company under this Agreement shall be joint and several, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of: (a) any lack of validity, legality or enforceability of any Loan Document; (b) the failure of any Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Obligor or any other Person (including any other guarantor) under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise, or to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor (including any Obligor) of, or collateral securing, any Designated Borrower Obligations; (c) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any part of the Designated Borrower Obligations, or any other extension, compromise or renewal of any Designated Borrower Obligation; (d) any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination of any Designated Borrower Obligations for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to (and the Company hereby waives any right to or claim of) any defense (including any defense under or in connection with any decree) or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, irregularity, compromise, unenforceability of, or any other event or occurrence affecting, any Designated Borrower Obligations or otherwise; (e) any amendment to, rescission, waiver, or other modification of, or any consent to or departure from, any of the terms of any Loan Document; (f) any addition, exchange, release, surrender or non-perfection of any collateral, or any amendment to or waiver or release or addition of, or consent to or departure from, any other guaranty held by any Secured Party securing any of the Designated Borrower Obligations; or (g) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, any Obligor, any surety or any guarantor.

Section 4.11.3 Reinstatement, etc. The Company agrees that its guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment (in whole or in part) of any of the Designated Borrower Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Secured Party, upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any other Designated Borrower, any other Obligor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

Section 4.11.4 Waiver, etc. The Company hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Obligations and this Agreement and any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien, or any property subject thereto, or exhaust any right or take any action against any other Obligor or any other Person (including any other guarantor) or entity or any collateral securing the Obligations, as the case may be.

Section 4.11.5 Postponement of Subrogation, etc. Each Borrower agrees that it will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of rights of subrogation under any Loan Document to which it is a party, nor shall any Borrower seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any Obligor, in respect of any payment made hereunder, under any other Loan Document or otherwise, until

following the Termination Date. Any amount paid to any Borrower on account of any such subrogation rights prior to the Termination Date shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall immediately be paid and turned over to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in the exact form received by such Borrower (duly endorsed in favor of the Collateral Agent, if required), to be credited and applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with Section 4.7; provided that (a) if any Borrower has made payment to the Secured Parties of all or any part of the Obligations; and (b) the Termination Date has occurred; then at such Borrower’s request, the Collateral Agent, (on behalf of the Secured Parties) will, at the expense of such Borrower, execute and deliver to such Borrower appropriate documents (without recourse and without representation or warranty) necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Borrower of an interest in the Obligations resulting from such payment. In furtherance of the foregoing, at all times prior to the Termination Date each Borrower shall refrain from taking any action or commencing any proceeding against any Obligor (or its successors or assigns, whether in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise) to recover any amounts in the respect of payments made under any Loan Document to any Secured Party.

ARTICLE IX
THE AGENTS

Section 9.1 Actions. Each Lender hereby appoints PNC Bank as its Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent under and for purposes of each Loan Document. Each Lender authorizes each

Agent to act on behalf of such Lender under each Loan Document and, in the absence of other written instructions from the Required Lenders received from time to time by each applicable Agent (with respect to which such Agent agrees that it will comply, except as otherwise provided in this Section or as otherwise advised by counsel in order to avoid contravention of applicable law), to exercise such powers hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as may be incidental thereto (including the release of Liens on assets Disposed of in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents). Each Lender hereby indemnifies (which indemnity shall survive any termination of this Agreement) the Agents, pro rata according to such Lender’s proportionate Total Exposure Amount, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, an Agent in any way relating to or arising out of any Loan Document, (including attorneys’ fees), and as to which such Agent is not reimbursed by the Borrowers; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses which are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final proceeding to have resulted from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither Agent shall be required to take any action under any Loan Document, or to prosecute or defend any suit in respect of any Loan Document, unless it is indemnified hereunder to its satisfaction. If any indemnity in favor of an Agent shall be or become, in such Agent’s determination, inadequate, such Agent may call for additional indemnification from the Lenders and cease to do the acts indemnified against hereunder until such additional indemnity is given.

Section 9.2 Funding Reliance, etc.

(a) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender by 3:00 p.m. on the Business Day prior to a Borrowing that such Lender will not make available the amount which would constitute its Revolving Loan Percentage of such Borrowing on the date specified therefor, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent and, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such amount available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to repay the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date the Administrative Agent made such amount available to the Borrowers to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the interest rate applicable at the time to Loans comprising such Borrowing (in the case of the Borrowers) and (in the case of a Lender), at the Federal Funds Effective Rate (for the first two Business Days after which such amount has not been repaid), and thereafter at the interest rate applicable to Loans comprising such Borrowing.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing prior to the time at which any payment hereunder is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Secured Parties hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Secured Parties its share of the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Secured Parties severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Secured Party, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate (for the first two Business Days after which such amount has not been repaid), and thereafter at the interest rate applicable to the Loans which were repaid.

Section 9.3 Exculpation. No Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable to any Secured Party for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under any Loan Document, or in connection therewith, except for its own willful misconduct or gross negligence, nor responsible for any recitals or warranties herein or therein, nor for the effectiveness, enforceability, validity or due execution of any Loan Document, nor for the creation, perfection or priority of any Liens purported to be created by any of the Loan Documents, or the validity, genuineness, enforceability, existence, value or sufficiency of any collateral security, nor to make any inquiry respecting the performance by any Obligor of its Obligations. Any such inquiry which may be made by an Agent shall not obligate it to make any further inquiry or to take any action. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon advice of counsel concerning legal matters and upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or writing which such Agent believes to be genuine and to have been presented by a proper Person.

Section 9.4 Successor. Any of the Agents may resign as such at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to the other Agents, the Borrowers and all Lenders. If an Agent at any time shall resign, the Required Lenders may appoint another Lender as a successor Agent which shall thereupon become the applicable Agent hereunder. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then such retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be one of the Lenders or a commercial banking institution organized under the laws of the United States (or any State thereof) or a United States branch or agency of a commercial banking institution, and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000; provided that if such retiring Agent is unable to find a commercial banking institution which is willing to accept such appointment and which meets the qualifications set forth in above, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall be entitled to receive from the retiring Agent such documents of transfer and assignment as such successor Agent may reasonably request, and shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as the an Agent, the provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent under the Loan Documents, and Section 10.3 and Section 10.4 shall continue to inure to its benefit.

Section 9.5 Loans by the Agents. The Agents shall have the same rights and powers with respect to (a) the Credit Extensions made by it or any of its Affiliates, and (b) the Notes held by it or any of its Affiliates as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not an Agent. PNC Bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrowers as if such Agent were not an Agent hereunder.

Section 9.6 Credit Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently of each Agent and each other Lender, and based on such Lender’s review of the financial information of the Borrowers, the Loan Documents (the terms and provisions of which being satisfactory to such Lender) and such other documents, information and investigations as such Lender has deemed appropriate, made its own credit decision to extend its Commitments. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently of each Agent and each other Lender, and based on such other documents, information and investigations as it shall deem appropriate at any time, continue to make its own credit decisions as to exercising or not exercising from time to time any rights and privileges available to it under the Loan Documents.

Section 9.7 Copies, etc. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each Lender of each notice or request required or permitted to be given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents (unless concurrently delivered to the Lenders by the Borrower). The Administrative Agent will distribute to each Lender each document or instrument received for its account and copies of all other communications received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers for distribution to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

Section 9.8 Reliance by the Agents. The Agents shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telecopy, telegram or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents, the Agents shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, thereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders as is required in such circumstance, and such instructions of such Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all Secured Parties. For purposes of applying amounts in accordance with this Section, the Agents shall be entitled to rely upon any Secured Party that has entered into a Rate Protection Agreement with any Obligor for a determination (which such Secured Party agrees to provide or cause to be provided upon request of the Administrative Agent) of the outstanding Obligations owed to such Secured Party under any Rate Protection Agreement. Unless it has actual knowledge evidenced by way of written notice from any such Secured Party or the Company to the contrary, the Administrative Agent, in acting in such capacity under the Loan Documents, shall be entitled to assume that no Rate Protection Agreements or Obligations in respect thereof are in existence or outstanding between any Secured Party and any Obligor.

Section 9.9 Defaults. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default unless such Agent has received a written notice from a Lender or the Company specifying such Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Agents shall (subject to Section 10.1) take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the Required Lenders; provided that, unless and until the Agents shall have received such directions, the Agents may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Secured Parties except to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires that such action be taken, or not be taken, only with the consent or upon the authorization of the Required Lenders or all Lenders.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Obligors or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Agents in accordance with the Loan Documents for the benefit of all the Lenders and the Issuer; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) the Collateral Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Collateral Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) each of the Issuer and the Swing Line Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (d) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 4.9 (subject to Section 4.9) or (e) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own

behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Obligor under any bankruptcy or other debtor relief law; and provided further that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.3 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (c), (d) and (e) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 4.9, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

Section 9.10 Posting of Approved Electronic Communications.

(a) The Borrowers hereby agree that the Administrative Agent may make all information, documents and other materials that the Borrowers and their respective subsidiaries are obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents or to the Lenders under Section 7.1.1, including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials (collectively, “Communications”), available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on SyndTrak or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”).

(b) THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS IS MADE BY THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY OBLIGOR, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER OR NOT BASED ON STRICT LIABILITY AND INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY OBLIGOR’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY IS FOUND IN A FINAL RULING BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

(c) Each Lender agrees that receipt of notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (excluding by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

(d) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

Section 9.11 Joint Lead Arrangers, Joint Bookrunners and Syndication Agents. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Joint Lead Arrangers, Joint Bookrunners and the Syndication Agents, in their respective capacities as such, each in such capacity, shall have no duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any other Loan Document nor any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against such Person in such capacity.

Section 9.12 Withholding. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding Tax if in its reasonable judgment it is required to do so under the due diligence requirements imposed upon a withholding agent under the Code or other applicable law. In addition, any Lender, if requested by 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 withholding tax, backup withholding or information reporting requirements. If any payment has been made to any Lender by the Administrative Agent without the applicable withholding Tax being withheld from such payment and the Administrative Agent has paid over the applicable withholding Tax to the IRS or any other Governmental Authority, or the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.

No notice to or demand on any Obligor in any case shall entitle it to any notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. No waiver or approval by any Secured Party under any Loan Document shall, except as may be otherwise stated in such waiver or approval, be applicable to subsequent transactions.

(b) the entering into and performance (including the issuance of Letters of Credit) of any Loan Document by any of the Indemnified Parties (including any action brought by or on behalf of the Company as the result of any determination by the Required Lenders pursuant to Article V not to fund any Credit Extension, provided that any such action is resolved in favor of such Indemnified Party);

(c) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to any acquisition or proposed acquisition by any Obligor or any Subsidiary thereof of all or any portion of the Capital Securities or assets of any Person, whether or not an Indemnified Party is party thereto;

except for Indemnified Liabilities arising for the account of a particular Indemnified Party by reason of the relevant Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In no event shall the Indemnified Parties have any liability to any Obligor, any Lender or any other Person for incidental or consequential damages of any kind as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to any of the items described in clause (a) through (f) above. Each Obligor and its successors and assigns hereby waive, release and agree not to make any claim or bring any cost recovery action against, any Indemnified Party under CERCLA or any state equivalent, or any similar law now existing or hereafter enacted. It is expressly understood and agreed that to the extent that any Indemnified Party is strictly liable under any Environmental Laws, each Obligor’s obligation to such Indemnified Party under this indemnity shall likewise be without regard to fault on the part of any Obligor with respect to the violation or condition which results in liability of an Indemnified Party. If and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, each Obligor agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.

Section 10.5 Survival. The obligations of the Borrowers under Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 10.3 and 10.4, and the obligations of the Lenders under Section 9.1, shall in each case survive any assignment from one Lender to another (in the case of Sections 10.3 and 10.4) and the occurrence of the Termination Date. The representations and warranties made by each Obligor in each Loan Document shall survive the execution and delivery of such Loan Document.

Section 10.6 Severability. Any provision of any Loan Document which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such provision and such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of such Loan Document or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 10.7 Headings. The various headings of each Loan Document are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of such Loan Document or any provisions thereof.

Section 10.8 Execution in Counterparts, Effectiveness, etc. This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall constitute together but one and the same agreement. This Agreement shall become effective on the date first above written when counterparts hereof executed on behalf of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuer and each Lender (or notice thereof satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), shall have been received by the Administrative Agent.

EACH LOAN DOCUMENT (OTHER THAN THE LETTERS OF CREDIT, TO THE EXTENT SPECIFIED BELOW AND EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN A LOAN DOCUMENT) WILL EACH BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING FOR SUCH PURPOSE SectionS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK) AND EACH SUCH LOAN DOCUMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES THEREUNDER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY CLAIMS SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT LAW ARISING OUT OF THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND ANY DETERMINATIONS WITH RESPECT TO POST-JUDGMENT INTEREST) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(i) the aggregate amount of the Commitments (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder), or principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Lender Assignment Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000, unless (A) the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (B) such assignment is an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans at the time owing to it, (C) such assignment is an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender or (D) such assignment is to one or more Eligible Assignees managed by an Affiliate of such Eligible Assignee(s) and the aggregate amount of such assignments is not less than $1,000,000;

(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans, and/or the Commitments assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate tranches on a non-pro rata basis; and

(iii) the parties to each assignment shall (A) electronically execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Lender Assignment Agreement via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent (an “ESS”) or (B) with the consent of the Administrative Agent, manually execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Lender Assignment Agreement, together with, in either case, a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent); provided that only one processing and recordation fee of $3,500 shall be required to be paid in connection with the simultaneous assignment by a Lender to multiple Approved Funds of such Lender, and if the Eligible Assignee is not already a Lender, administrative details information with respect to such Eligible Assignee and applicable tax forms.

(b) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (c), from and after the effective date specified in each Lender Assignment Agreement, (i) the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Lender Assignment Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Lender Assignment Agreement, subject to Section 10.5, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of a Lender Assignment Agreement covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto, but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of any provisions of this Agreement which by their terms survive the termination of this Agreement). If the consent of the Company to an assignment or to an Eligible Assignee is required hereunder (including a consent to an assignment which does not meet the minimum assignment thresholds specified in this Section), the Company shall be deemed to have given its consent five Business Days after the date notice thereof has been delivered by the assigning Lender (through the Administrative Agent or an ESS) unless such consent is expressly refused by the Company prior to such fifth day.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall record each assignment made in accordance with this Section in the Register pursuant to clause (a) of Section 2.8. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, the Collateral Agent, the Issuer and any Lender (with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans or Commitments), at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, any Person, sell participations to one or more Persons (other than Ineligible Assignees) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights or obligations under the Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitments or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrowers, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and (iv) such Lender shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and each Participant’s interest in such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents held by it, which entries shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Any agreement or instrument

pursuant to which a Lender sells a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the rights and remedies of a Lender under the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, take any action of the type described in clauses (a) through (d) or clause (f) of Section 10.1 with respect to Obligations participated in by that Participant. Subject to clause (e), the Borrowers agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 7.1.1, 10.3 and 10.4 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (c). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.9 as though it were a Lender, but only if such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 4.8 as though it were a Lender.

(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 10.3 or 10.4 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive (or would be entitled to receive if a change in applicable law or any interpretation thereof occurs and the Lender had not sold the participation) with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Non-U.S. Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.6 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with the requirements set forth in Section 4.6 as though it were a Lender. Any Lender that sells a participating interest in any Loan, Commitment or other interest to a Participant under this Section shall indemnify and hold harmless the Borrowers and the Agents from and against any taxes, penalties, interest or other costs or losses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred or payable by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as a result of the failure of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations to deduct or withhold any Taxes from any payments made pursuant to this Agreement to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, which Taxes would not have been incurred or payable if such Participant had been a Non-U.S. Lender that was entitled to deliver to the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, and did in fact so deliver, a duly completed and valid Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or applicable successor form) entitling such Participant to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal taxes.

(f) 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 any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; 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.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (a “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Company, the option to provide to the Company all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Company pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (x) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loans and (y) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation

under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this clause, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Company or the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Company, and the Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This Section may not be amended without the written consent of the SPC. The Company acknowledges and agrees, subject to the next sentence, that, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, each SPC, for purposes of Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.8, 4.9, 10.3 and 10.4 shall be considered a Lender. The Borrowers shall not be required to pay any amount under Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, and 10.4 that is greater than the amount which it would have been required to pay had no grant been made by a Granting Lender to an SPC.

Section 10.12 Other Transactions. Nothing contained herein shall preclude the Administrative Agent, any Issuer or any other Lender from engaging in any transaction, in addition to those contemplated by the Loan Documents, with any Borrower or any of its Affiliates in which such Borrower or such Affiliate is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person.

Section 10.13 Forum Selection and Consent to Jurisdiction. ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, THE LENDERS, ANY ISSUER OR THE BORROWERS IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH MAY BE BROUGHT AND MAINTAINED IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK; PROVIDED THAT ANY SUIT SEEKING ENFORCEMENT AGAINST ANY COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE BROUGHT, AT THE AGENTS’ OPTION, IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION WHERE SUCH COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE FOUND, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PERSON PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONAL, THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS. THE BORROWERS IRREVOCABLY CONSENT TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS BY REGISTERED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, OR BY PERSONAL SERVICE WITHIN OR WITHOUT THE STATE OF NEW YORK AT THE ADDRESS FOR NOTICES SPECIFIED IN Section 10.2. THE BORROWERS HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE OR HEREAFTER MAY HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT REFERRED TO ABOVE AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH LITIGATION HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE BORROWERS HAVE OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE) WITH

RESPECT TO ITSELF OR ITS PROPERTY, THE BORROWERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS.

Section 10.14 Waiver of Jury Trial. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, EACH LENDER, EACH ISSUER AND EACH BORROWER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, EACH LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, SUCH LENDER, SUCH ISSUER OR EACH BORROWER IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. THE BORROWERS ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT IT HAS RECEIVED FULL AND SUFFICIENT CONSIDERATION FOR THIS PROVISION (AND EACH OTHER PROVISION OF EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY) AND THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, EACH LENDER AND EACH ISSUER ENTERING INTO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS.

Section 10.15 Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to Section 326 of the Patriot Act and/or the Administrative Agent (each of the foregoing acting for themselves and not acting on behalf of any of the Lenders) hereby notify the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the Patriot Act.

Section 10.16 Judgment Currency. The Obligations of each Obligor in respect of any sum due to any Secured Party under or in respect of any Loan Document shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum was originally denominated (the “Original Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Secured Party or any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, such Secured Party, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchases the Original Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of Original Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Secured Party, the Borrowers agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender, such Secured Party, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of Original Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to such Secured Party, as the case may be, such Secured Party, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the Borrowers.

Section 10.17 Confidentiality.

(a) Subject to the provisions of clause (b) of this Section, each Lender agrees that it will follow its customary procedures in an effort not to disclose without the prior consent of the Company (other than to its employees, auditors, advisors or counsel or to another Lender if the Lender or such Lender’s holding or parent company in its sole discretion determines that any such party should have access to such information, provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section to the same extent as such Lender) any confidential information which is now or in the future furnished pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that any Lender may disclose any such information (i) as has become generally available to the public other than by virtue of a breach of this clause by the respective Lender or any other Person to whom such Lender has provided such information as permitted by this Section, (ii) as may be required or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to

any municipal, state, provincial or Federal regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender or to the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations (whether in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors, (iii) as may be required or appropriate in respect to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, (iv) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Lender, (v) to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, (vi) to any pledgee referred to in clause (f) of Section 10.11 or any prospective or actual transferee or participant in connection with any contemplated transfer or participation of any of the Notes or Commitments or any interest therein by such Lender; provided that such prospective transferee agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions contained in this Section, (vii) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisor to such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section) and (viii) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender. For purposes of this Section 10.17, all information furnished to the Lenders by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed public information unless prior to or concurrently with the delivery of such information, the Lenders have been notified otherwise by the Company or such Affiliate.

(b) The Borrowers hereby acknowledge and agree that each Lender may share with any of its Affiliates, and such Affiliates may share with such Lender, any information related to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section to the same extent as such Lender.

The foregoing language is not intended to waive any confidentiality obligations otherwise applicable under this Agreement except with respect to the information and materials specifically referenced in the preceding sentence. This authorization does not extend to disclosure of any other information, including (a) the identity of participants or potential participants in the transactions contemplated herein, (b) the existence or status of any negotiations, or (c) any financial, business, legal or personal information of or regarding a party or its affiliates, or of or regarding any participants or potential participants in the transactions contemplated herein (or any of their respective affiliates), in each case to the extent such other information is not related to the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated herein.

Section 10.18 Counsel Representation. EACH BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED BY COMPETENT COUNSEL IN THE NEGOTIATION OF THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT ANY RULE OR CONSTRUCTION OF LAW ENABLING SUCH BORROWER TO ASSERT THAT ANY AMBIGUITIES OR INCONSISTENCIES IN THE DRAFTING OR PREPARATION OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT SHOULD DIMINISH ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE OTHER SECURED PARTIES ARE HEREBY WAIVED BY SUCH BORROWER.

Section 10.19 Effect of Amendment and Restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement. On the Closing Date, the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety as set forth herein. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (a) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, whether executed and delivered in connection herewith or otherwise, do not constitute a novation or

termination of the “Obligations” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) under the Existing Credit Agreement as in effect prior to the Closing Date and which remain outstanding, including, without limitation any Original Revolving Loans outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement and Obligations in respect of the Existing Letters of Credit, (b) the “Obligations” are in all respects continuing (as amended and restated hereby and which are hereinafter subject to the terms herein) and (c) the Liens as granted under the applicable Loan Documents securing payment of such “Obligations” are in all respects continuing and in full force and effect (as assigned to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents).

DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE

ITEM 5.1.2 Organization and Capital Structure

See organizational chart attached.

ITEM 6.7. Litigation.

On May 6, 2004, the Company was named in an indirect purchaser class action in California seeking monetary damages and injunctive relief relating to alleged violations of the antitrust laws by the Company and others participating in the plastics additives industry (Competition Collision Center, LLC v. Crompton Corporation, et al., Superior Court of the State of California for the City and County of San Francisco, Case No. CGC-040431278); on August 4, 2005, the Company was named in another indirect purchaser class action lawsuit (In Re Indirect Purchaser, Plastic Additives Litigation, D.R. Ward Construction, et al., v. Rohm & Haas Company, et al., Case No. 2:05-CV-04157-LDD, MDL No. 1684, U.S. District Court, Eastern District of Pennsylvania); and in June 2008, the Company was named in four more indirect purchaser class action lawsuits. All of these cases contain similar allegations. The four indirect purchaser cases filed in 2008 have been transferred to the Eastern District of Pennsylvania (Defren v. Rohm & Haas Company, et al., Case No. 2:08-CV-03702-LDD (filed June 12, 2008); Zebrowski v. Rohm & Haas Company, et al., Case No. 2:08-CV-04161-LDD (filed June 23, 2008); Burg v. Rohm & Haas Company, et al., Case No. 2:08-CV-04162-LDD (filed June 30, 2008); Miller v. Rohm & Haas Company, et al., Case No. 2:08-CV-03701-LDD (filed June 18, 2008)). The Company intends to vigorously defend these six civil actions, which are all in their early stages. As a result, the Company cannot determine the outcome of these lawsuits at this time. In December 2006, the Company filed a lawsuit against the former owner of our heat stabilizer business seeking indemnification for the defense of these lawsuits and any resulting payments by the Company. In April 2008, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio dismissed the Company’s lawsuit, and the Company appealed the court’s decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. In November 2009, the Sixth Circuit affirmed the decision of the District Court. The Company does not intend to pursue this matter further.

For the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company submitted deviation reports required by the Title V air emission permit issued under the New Jersey Air Pollution Control Act (the “Title V Air Permit”), which contained numerous deviations from the standards required by the Title V Air Permit at our South Plainfield, New Jersey, facility. In November 2009, the Company entered a settlement agreement with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, pursuant to which the Company performed $100,000 worth of supplemental environmental projects in the community during 2009 and will make quarterly cash payments totaling $300,000 in 2010.

Groundwater
contamination

Under a 1993 consent order with IDEM, a subsurface investigation study revealed groundwater contamination that will be required to be cleaned up in the future.

In January 2007 we met with Dover (current site operator) to review the proposed groundwater treatment system. We will need to work closely with Dover during the installation to minimize its impact on their ongoing operations. In March 2007 the Remediation Work Plan was completed and submitted to IDEM that includes the treatability testing results, risk assessment showing the preliminary remediation objectives (PRO), and proposed groundwater treatment system. The Company and IDEM modified the workplan and the revised workplan was approved by IDEM on November 17, 2008. The Company is in the process of implementing the workplan and provides quarterly project status updates to IDEM.
