“If any Lender is willing, in its sole and absolute discretion, to make Incremental Term Loans hereunder, it shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Term Loan Activation Notice specifying (i) the amount of such Incremental Term Loans, (ii) the applicable Incremental Term Maturity Date (which shall not be earlier than, in the case of Incremental Term Loans (other than Term B Loans), the then Initial Term Loan Maturity Date or, in the case of Incremental Term Loans which are Term B Loans, the latest maturity date then applicable to any Class of Term Loans which are Term B Loans), (iii) the amortization schedule for such Incremental Term Loans (the average weighted life of which shall not be shorter than that of, in the case of Incremental Term Loans (other than Term B

Loans), the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Initial Term Loans (i.e., such Incremental Term Loans may amortize in annual amounts of up to 5% of the original principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans) or, in the case of Incremental Term Loans which are Term B Loans, if so specified in the applicable Incremental Facility Activation Notice, the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the applicable Class of Term B Loans which are incurred under such Incremental Facility Activation Notice), (iv) the proposed original issue discount applicable to such Incremental Term Loans, if any, (v) in the case of any Incremental Term Loans which are Term B Loans only, the Applicable Margin for such Incremental Term Loans, provided that, if any Term B Loans (“Subsequently Incurred Term B Loans”) are incurred after an incurrence of Term B Loans under this Section, if the weighted average yield relating to any Subsequently Incurred Term B Loans exceeds the weighted average yield relating to any then outstanding Term B Loans (but only to the extent that the Incremental Facility Activation Notice related to such then outstanding Term B Loans shall elect for such Term B Loans to be covered by this proviso in respect of such Subsequently Incurred Term B Loans) immediately prior to the effectiveness of the applicable Incremental Facility Activation Notice by more than 0.50% (to be determined by the Administrative Agent consistent with generally accepted financial practices, after giving effect to margins, upfront or similar fees, or original issue discount, in each case shared with all lenders or holders thereof and applicable interest rate floors (but only to the extent that an increase in the interest rate floor applicable to the Term B Loans would result in an increase in an interest rate then in effect for the Term B Loans hereunder)), then the Applicable Margin relating to the applicable Term B Loans shall be adjusted so that the weighted average yield relating to such Subsequently Incurred Term B Loans shall not exceed the weighted average yield relating to the applicable Term B Loans by more than 0.50%, (vi) in the case of any Incremental Term Loans which are Term B Loans only, such Incremental Term Loans which are Term B Loans may have customary call-protection, including “soft-call” protection in connection with any repricing transaction, and (vii) in the case of any Incremental Term Loans which are Term B Loans only, such Incremental Term Loans which are Term B Loans may also, to the extent so provided in the applicable Incremental Facility Activation Notice, specify whether (w) the applicable Term B Lenders shall have any voting rights in respect of the financial covenants under the Basic Documents (including, without limitation, Sections 9.08, 9.09, 9.10 and 9.11 hereof) (it being agreed that if any Subsequently Incurred Term B Loans shall have such voting rights, all then outstanding Term B Loans shall also have similar voting rights), (x) any breach of such covenants would result in a Default or Event of Default for such Term B Lenders prior to an acceleration of Commitments and/or Loans by the applicable Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof as a result of such breach (it being agreed that if any Subsequently Incurred Term B Loans shall have such a default, all then outstanding Term B Loans shall also have a similar default), (y) any such Term B Loans will be subject to an “Excess Cash Flow” mandatory prepayment (it being understood that any such prepayment may apply to all then outstanding Term Loans also on a ratable basis) and (z) the applicable Term B Lenders shall be subject to any other representations and warranties, covenants or events of default that are different from the terms set forth in the Basic Documents as of the date of the incurrence of such Indebtedness; provided that, such Incremental Term Loans shall not have representations and warranties, covenants or events of default that are more restrictive, taken as a whole, than the representations and warranties, covenants or events of default set forth in the Basic Documents as of the date of incurrence of such Indebtedness unless such representations and warranties, covenants or events of default apply also to all other then outstanding Term Loans or only apply after the then Initial Term Loan Maturity Date or, in the case of Incremental Term Loans which are Term B Loans, the latest maturity date then applicable to any Class of Term Loans which are Term B Loans).  Any Other Lender that is willing to become a party hereto and a Lender hereunder (and which arrangement to become a party hereto and a Lender hereunder has been consulted by the Company with the Administrative Agent) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Term Loan Activation Notice and enter into an Additional Lender Supplement.  Upon the execution by the Administrative Agent, the Company and such Other Lender of such Additional Lender Supplement, such Other Lender shall become and be deemed a party hereto and a “Lender” hereunder for all purposes hereof and shall enjoy all rights and assume all obligations on the part of the Lenders set forth in this Agreement, and the amount of its Incremental Term
