The existing outstanding Initial Term Loans and the 2014 Incremental Term Loans shall constitute a single “Class” and together shall be the Initial Term Loans for all purposes under, and subject to the provisions of, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents after giving effect to this Amendment (the Credit Agreement as so amended, the “Amended Agreement”). Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that all such 2014 Incremental Term Loans, when originally made, are Initial Term Loans for all purposes under the Loan Documents and are included in each borrowing of outstanding Initial Term Loans on a pro rata basis, in each case, after giving effect to this Amendment.
