VI	Greater than or equal to 3.00 to 1.00	50.00 bps	150.00 bps

(ii) Changes in the Applicable Margin based upon changes in the Total Leverage Ratio shall become effective on the Business Day following the receipt by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(b) of the financial statements of the Borrower for the Testing Period most recently ended, accompanied by a Compliance Certificate in accordance with Section 6.01(c), demonstrating the computation of the Total Leverage Ratio.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that any of the information contained in the financial statements required to be delivered hereunder shall be incorrect in any manner and as a result thereof (or for any other reason), the Total Leverage Ratio was determined incorrectly for any period, then the Administrative Agent shall recalculate the Total Leverage Ratio based upon the correct information and shall recalculate the Applicable Margin for the relevant periods and the Borrower shall be required to pay on demand by the Administrative Agent any amounts the Borrower should have paid had the Applicable Margin been calculated correctly for such periods (or, to the extent that the Borrower has paid any amounts in excess of the amounts the Borrower should have paid, then the Lenders shall credit such over-payment to the Indebtedness owing by the Borrower to each such Lender).

(local time at the Payment Office) on the date specified in the Notice of Borrowing delivered on or prior to the Closing Date (or, in the case of a Base Rate Loan requested for that same day, 4:00 P.M.), each Lender will make available its pro rata share of the Borrowing requested to be made on the Funding Date to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds and the Administrative Agent promptly will make available to the Borrower by depositing to its account at the Payment Office (or such other account as the Borrower shall specify) the aggregate of the amounts so made available in the type of funds received.

(e) Advance Funding. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the Closing Date that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent its portion of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be made on the Funding Date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing, and the Administrative Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion and without any obligation to do so) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender and the Administrative Agent has made the same available to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to

recover from such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to (i) if paid by such Lender, the overnight Federal Funds Effective Rate or (ii) if paid by the Borrower, the then applicable rate of interest, calculated in accordance with Section 2.06, for the respective Loans (but without any requirement to pay any amounts in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.02).

Section 2.05 Evidence of Obligations.

(a) Loan Accounts of Lenders. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(b) Loan Accounts of Administrative Agent; Lender Register. The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan and Borrowing made hereunder, the Type thereof, the currency in which such Loan is denominated, the Interest Period and applicable interest rate, (ii) the amount of any principal due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder, (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof, and (iv) the other details relating to the Loans and other Obligations. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain, on behalf of the Borrower, a register (the “Lender Register”) on or in which it will record the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments from time to time of each of the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make the Lender Register available to any Lender or the Borrower upon request.

(c) Effect of Loan Accounts, etc. The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.05(b) shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations recorded therein; provided, that the failure of the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error (other than manifest error) therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Credit Party to repay or prepay the Loans or the other Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Notes. Upon the request of any Lender, the Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender a Note with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith to evidence its obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Loan made to it by such Lender; provided, however, that the decision of any Lender to not request a Note shall in no way detract from the Borrower’s obligations to repay the Loans and other amounts owing by the Borrower to such Lender.

Section 2.06 Interest; Default Rate.

(a) Interest. The outstanding principal amount of each Loan made by each Lender shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum that shall at all times be equal to (i) during such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, and (ii) during such periods as such Loan is a Eurodollar Loan, the relevant Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for such Eurodollar Loan for the applicable Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time.

(b) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the above provisions, if an Event of Default is in existence, upon written notice by the Administrative Agent (which notice the Administrative Agent shall give at the direction of the Required Lenders), all outstanding amounts of principal and, to the extent permitted by law, all overdue interest, in respect of each Loan shall bear interest, payable on demand, at a

rate per annum equal to the Default Rate. In addition, if any amount (other than amounts as to which the foregoing sentence is applicable) payable by the Borrower under the Loan Documents is not paid when due, upon written notice by the Administrative Agent (which notice the Administrative Agent shall give at the direction of the Required Lenders), such amount shall bear interest, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate.

(c) Accrual and Payment of Interest. Interest shall accrue from and including the date of any Borrowing to but excluding the date of any prepayment or repayment thereof and shall be payable by the Borrower: (i) in respect of each Base Rate Loan, quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, (ii) in respect of each Eurodollar Loan, on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an Interest Period in excess of three months, on the dates that are successively three months after the commencement of such Interest Period and (iii) in respect of all Loans on any repayment, prepayment or Conversion (on the amount repaid, prepaid or Converted), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise), and, after such maturity or, in the case of any interest payable pursuant to Section 2.06(b), on demand.

(d) Computations of Interest. All computations of interest on Eurodollar Loans shall be made on the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days. All computations of interest on Base Rate Loans hereunder shall be made on the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable.

(e) Information as to Interest Rates. The Administrative Agent, upon determining the interest rate for any Borrowing, shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders thereof. Any changes in the Applicable Margin shall be determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions set forth in the definition of “Applicable Margin” and the Administrative Agent will promptly provide notice of such determinations to the Borrower and the Lenders. Any such determination by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.

Section 2.07 Conversion and Continuation of Loans. Each Continuation or Conversion of a Loan shall be made upon notice in the form provided for below provided by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent at its Notice Office not later than (i) in the case of each Continuation of or Conversion into a Eurodollar Loan, prior to 1:00 P.M. (local time at its Notice Office) at least two Business Days’ prior to the date of such Continuation or Conversion, and (ii) in the case of each Conversion to a Base Rate Loan, prior to 1:00 P.M. (local time at its Notice Office) on the proposed date of such Conversion. Each such request shall be made by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower delivering written notice of such request substantially in the form of Exhibit B-2 hereto (each such notice, a “Notice of Continuation or Conversion”) or by telephone (to be confirmed immediately in writing by delivery by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower of a Notice of Continuation or Conversion), and in any event each such request shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) the Borrowings to be Continued or Converted, (B) the date of the Continuation or Conversion (which shall be a Business Day), and (C) the Interest Period or, in the case of a Continuation, the new Interest Period. Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to confirm in writing any telephonic notice permitted to be given hereunder, the Administrative Agent may act prior to receipt of written confirmation without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by the Administrative Agent in good faith to be from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower entitled to give telephonic notices under this Agreement on behalf of the Borrower. In each such case, the Administrative Agent’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.08 Fees.

(a) Administrative Agent Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on the Funding Date and thereafter, for its own account, the fees set forth in the Administrative Agent Fee Letter.

(b) Computations and Determination of Fees. All computations of Fees hereunder shall be made on the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days.

Section 2.09 Termination of Commitments. All of the Commitments shall terminate immediately after the Funding Date.

Section 2.10 Payments and Prepayments of Loans.

(a) Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right to prepay any of the Loans from time to time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (except as specified in subparts (e) and (f) of this Section 2.10). The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office written or telephonic notice (in the case of telephonic notice, promptly confirmed in writing if so requested by the Administrative Agent) of its intent to prepay the Loans, the amount of such prepayment and (in the case of Eurodollar Loans) the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which the prepayment is to be made, which notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent by (y) 1:00 P.M. (local time at the Notice Office) two Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment, in the case of any prepayment of Eurodollar Loans, or (z) 1:00 P.M. (local time at the Notice Office) one Business Day prior to the date of such prepayment, in the case of any prepayment of Base Rate Loans, and which notice shall promptly be transmitted by the Administrative Agent to each of the affected Lenders, provided that:

(i) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least (A) in the case of any prepayment of a Eurodollar Loan, $3,000,000 (or, if less, the full amount of such Borrowing), or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (B) in the case of any prepayment of a Base Rate Loan, $1,000,000 (or, if less, the full amount of such Borrowing), or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof; and

(ii) each such prepayment shall be applied on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof) to the Scheduled Repayments in respect of the Loans in direct order of maturity.

(b) Scheduled Repayments. On each of the dates set forth below, the Borrower shall repay the principal amount of the Loans in the amount set forth opposite such date, except that the payment due on the Maturity Date shall in any event be in the amount of the entire remaining principal amount of the outstanding Loans (each such repayment, a “Scheduled Repayment”):

; provided, that each Scheduled Repayment set forth above will be reduced pro rata to the extent of any voluntary prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.10(a) above and as a result of any purchase and cancellation of Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(d).

(c) Particular Loans to be Prepaid. With respect to each repayment or prepayment of Loans made or required by this Section, the Borrower shall designate the Types of Loans that are to be repaid or prepaid and the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which such repayment or prepayment is to be made, provided, however, that (i) the Borrower shall first so designate all Loans that are Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Loans with Interest Periods ending on the date of repayment or prepayment prior to designating any other Eurodollar Loans for repayment or prepayment, and (ii) if the outstanding principal amount of Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing is reduced below the applicable Minimum Borrowing Amount as a result of any such repayment or prepayment, then all the Loans outstanding pursuant to such Borrowing shall, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, be Converted into Base Rate Loans. In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its sole discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Article III.

(d) Below-Par Purchases. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.10 or any other provision of this Agreement and without otherwise limiting the rights in respect of prepayments of the Loans of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender to receive prepayments of the Loans at par value as set forth in this Agreement, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may repurchase outstanding Loans pursuant to this Section 2.10(d) on the following basis:

(i) The Borrower may make one or more offers (each, an “Offer”) to repurchase all or any portion of the Loans (such Loans, the “Offer Loans”), including, if the Borrower chooses, on a non-pro rata basis, provided that, solely if such Offer shall be on a pro rata basis, then (A) the Borrower shall deliver notice of its intent to make such Offer to the Administrative Agent at least five (5) Business Days in advance of the launch of any proposed Offer, (B) upon the launch of such proposed Offer, the Borrower shall deliver a notice of such Offer to the Administrative Agent (and upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof) indicating (1) the last date on which such Offer may be accepted, (2) the maximum dollar amount of such Offer, and (3) the repurchase price per dollar of principal amount of such Offer Loans at which the Borrower is willing to repurchase such Offer Loans (which price may, but need not be, below par), (C) the minimum dollar amount of each Offer shall be $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, (D) the Borrower shall hold such Offer open for a minimum period of days to be reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower prior to the making of any such Offer, (E) any Lender which elects to participate in the Offer may choose to sell all or part of such Lender’s Offer Loans; (F) such Offer shall be conducted pursuant to such procedures the Administrative Agent may establish in consultation with the Borrower (which shall be consistent with this Section 2.10(d)) which procedures may include a requirement that that the Borrower represent and warrant that no facts or circumstances with respect to any Credit Party (or its Subsidiaries) exist which are not publicly known that could be material to a Lender’s decision to participate in such Offer;

(ii) With respect to all repurchases made by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.10(d), such repurchases shall not be deemed to be voluntary prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.10, or Section 2.11;

(iii) Upon the purchase by the Borrower of any Loans pursuant to this Section 2.10(d), (A) automatically and without the necessity for any notice or any other action, all principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans so repurchased shall be deemed to have been paid for all purposes and shall be cancelled and no longer outstanding for all purposes of this Agreement and all other Loan Documents (and in connection with any Loan purchased pursuant to this Section 2.10(d), the Administrative Agent is authorized to make appropriate entries in the Lender Register to reflect such cancellation) and (B) the Borrower will promptly advise the Administrative Agent of the total amount of Offer Loans that were repurchased from each Lender who elected to participate in the Offer; and

(iv) Failure by the Borrower to make any payment to a Lender required by an agreement permitted by this Section 2.10(d) shall not constitute an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a).

(e) Breakage and Other Compensation. Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be accompanied by any amounts payable in respect thereof under Article III hereof.

(f) Call Premium. In the event that all or any portion of the Loans are (i) prepaid, refinanced or replaced with the proceeds of any debt financing having a weighted average yield that is less than the weighted average yield of the Credit Facility (or portion thereof) so prepaid, refinanced, replaced or repriced or (ii) repriced or effectively refinanced through any waiver, consent or amendment the result of which would be the lowering of the weighted average yield of the Credit Facility, in each case, during one of the periods set forth in the table below, such prepayment, refinancing, replacement or repricing will be made at a premium above the principal amount so prepaid, refinanced, replaced or

repriced, in an amount equal to the percentage, set forth opposite each such period, of the amount of Loans being prepaid, refinanced, replaced or repriced.


Period	Premium
After the Closing Date through the first anniversary of the Closing Date		1	%
After the first anniversary of the Closing Date through the second anniversary of the Closing Date		2/3	%
After the second anniversary of the Closing Date through the date that is six months after the second anniversary of the Closing Date		1/3	%

Section 2.11 Method and Place of Payment.

(a) Generally. All payments made by the Borrower hereunder, under any Note or any other Loan Document, shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense.

(b) Application of Payments. Except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement and subject to Section 8.03, all payments and prepayments of Loans (except pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.10(d)) shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reduce the principal amount of the Loans made by each Lender pro rata on the basis of their respective Commitments.

(c) Payment of Obligations. Except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, all payments under this Agreement with respect to any of the Obligations shall be made to the Administrative Agent on the date when due and shall be made at the Payment Office in immediately available funds and shall be made in Dollars.

(d) Timing of Payments. Any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 1:00 P.M. (local time at the Payment Office) shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension.

(e) Distribution to Lenders. Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of payments hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall immediately distribute to each Lender its ratable share, if any, of the amount of principal, interest, and Fees received by it for the account of such Lender; provided, however, that if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and Fees then due hereunder then, except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement and subject to Section 8.03, such funds shall be applied, first, towards payment of interest and Fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and Fees then due to such parties, and second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

Section 2.12 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders.

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.03 shall be retained by the Administrative Agent and applied at such time or times as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders (other than such Defaulting Lender) as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender (other than such Defaulting Lender) against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; third, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and fourth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender); provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

ARTICLE III.

INCREASED COSTS, ILLEGALITY AND TAXES

Section 3.01 Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.

(a) In the event that (y) in the case of clause (i) below, the Administrative Agent or (z) in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) below, any Lender, shall have determined on a reasonable basis that:

(i) on any date for determining the interest rate applicable to any Eurodollar Loan for any Interest Period that, by reason of any changes arising after the Closing Date, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in this Agreement for such Eurodollar Loan; or

(ii) at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable by it hereunder in an amount that such Lender deems material with respect to any Eurodollar Loans (other than any increased cost or reduction in the amount received or receivable resulting from the imposition of or a change in the rate of taxes or similar charges) because of (x) any change since the Closing Date in any applicable law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline, order or request (whether or not having the force of law, but if not having the force of law, being of a type as to which such Lender customarily complies), or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, guideline, order or request (such as, for example, but not limited to, a change in official reserve requirements, but, in all events, excluding reserves already includable in the interest rate applicable to such Eurodollar Loan pursuant to this Agreement) or (y) other circumstances adversely affecting the London interbank market or the position of such Lender in any such market; or

(iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any Eurodollar Loan has become unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any change since the Closing Date in any law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or the interpretation or application thereof, or would conflict with any thereof not having the force of law but with which such Lender customarily complies, or has become impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the Closing Date that materially adversely affects the London interbank market;

then, and in each such event, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent in the case of clause (i) above) shall (x) on or promptly following such date or time and (y) within 10 Business Days of the date on which such event no longer exists give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, the affected Eurodollar Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no longer exist, and any Notice of Continuation or Conversion given by the Borrower with respect to such Eurodollar Loans that have not yet been Converted or Continued shall be deemed rescinded by the Borrower, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, upon written demand therefor, such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lender, for such increased costs or reductions in amounts receivable hereunder (a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing the basis for the calculation thereof, which basis must be reasonable, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender shall be rebuttably presumed to be correct) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrower shall take the action specified in Section 3.01(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law.

(b) At any time that any Eurodollar Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 3.01(a)(ii) or (iii), the Borrower may (and in the case of a Eurodollar Loan affected pursuant to Section 3.01(a)(iii) the Borrower shall), if the affected Eurodollar Loan is then outstanding, upon at least one Business Day’s notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to Convert each such

Eurodollar Loan into a Base Rate Loan, provided, however, that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 3.01(b).

(c) If any Lender shall have determined that after the Closing Date, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged by law with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Lender or its parent corporation with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law, but if not having the force of law, being of a type as to which such Lender customarily complies) of any such authority, central bank, or comparable agency, in each case made subsequent to the Closing Date, has or would have the effect of reducing by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material to the rate of return on such Lender’s or its parent corporation’s capital or assets as a consequence of such Lender’s commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or its parent corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or its parent corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or its parent corporation for such reduction; provided however, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith shall be deemed to have been enacted, adopted or issued after the date of this Agreement, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued (even if enacted, adopted or issued before the date hereof ). Each Lender, upon determining in good faith that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 3.01(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts, which basis must be reasonable, although the failure to give any such notice shall not release or diminish any of the Borrower’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01(c) upon the subsequent receipt of such notice. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, (i) no Lender shall demand compensation for any amounts referred to in this Section 3.01(c) if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender to demand such compensation, payment or reimbursement in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements, and (ii) the Borrower shall not be required to pay any amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01 for any period ending 180 days or more prior to the demand for payment of such amount.

Section 3.02 Breakage Compensation. The Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon its written request (which request shall set forth the detailed basis for requesting and the method of calculating such compensation), for all reasonable losses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss, cost, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its Eurodollar Loans but excluding any administrative and/or processing fees) which such Lender may sustain in connection with any of the following: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or the Administrative Agent) a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Continuation or Conversion (whether or not withdrawn by the Borrower or deemed withdrawn pursuant to Section 3.01(a)); (ii) if any repayment or prepayment (whether voluntary or mandatory) or Conversion or Continuation of any Eurodollar Loans occurs on a date that is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto; (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Eurodollar Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower; (iv) as a result of an assignment by a Lender of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto pursuant to a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.04(b). The written request of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower within 30 Business Days of the incurrence by such Lender of such loss or liability provided for

in this Section to be compensated by the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such request within 10 days after receipt thereof.

Section 3.03 Net Payments.

(a) Except as provided for in Section 3.03(b), all payments made by the Borrower hereunder, under any Note or any other Loan Document will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein with respect to such payments (but excluding (i) any tax imposed on or measured by the net income or net profits of a recipient and franchise taxes or alternative minimum taxes imposed on the recipient pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction under which such recipient is organized or the jurisdiction in which the principal office or Applicable Lending Office of such recipient, as applicable, is located or any subdivision thereof or therein, (ii) any branch profits tax imposed on any recipient by the United States or by the jurisdiction of the recipient’s organization principal office or Applicable Lending Office, (iii) any tax attributable to Lender’s failure to comply with Section 3.03(b), if it is legally entitled to do so, (iv) in the case of a Lender that is not a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), any withholding tax that is in effect and would apply to amounts payable to such Lender at the time it becomes a party to this Agreement (or designates a new Applicable Lending Office), except to the extent such Lender (or assignor) was entitled at the time of designation of a new Applicable Lending Office or assignment to receive additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to any withholding tax pursuant to this Section 3.03) or (v) any withholding taxes imposed pursuant to the FATCA and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect to such non-excluded taxes, levies imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees assessments or other charges being referred to collectively as “Taxes”). Subject to Section 3.03(b), if any Taxes are so levied or imposed, the Borrower agrees to pay such additional amounts (including additional amounts to compensate for withholding on amounts paid pursuant to this Section 3.03) as may be necessary so that every payment by it of all amounts due hereunder, under any Note or under any other Loan Document, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes will not be less than the amount such Lender would have received had no deduction, withholding or payment been required or made with respect to such Taxes. Subject to Section 3.03(b), the Borrower will indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and reimburse the Administrative Agent or such Lender upon its written request, for the amount of any Taxes imposed on and paid by such Lender. The Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent within 45 days after the date the payment of any Taxes, or any withholding or deduction on account thereof, is due pursuant to applicable law certified copies of tax receipts, or other evidence satisfactory to the respective Lender, evidencing such payment by the Borrower.

(b) Each Lender that is not a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for Federal income tax purposes and that is entitled to claim an exemption from or reduction in United States withholding tax with respect to a payment by the Borrower agrees to provide to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing Date, or in the case of a Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.06 (unless the respective Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or transfer and such Lender is in compliance with the provisions of this Section), on the date of such assignment or transfer to such Lender, and from time to time thereafter if required by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent: two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8ECI, W-8EXP or W-8IMY (or successor, substitute or other appropriate forms and, in the case of Form W-8IMY, complete with accompanying Forms W-8BEN or other appropriate forms with respect to beneficial owners of the payment) certifying to such Lender’s entitlement to exemption

from or a reduced rate of withholding of United States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document, along with any other appropriate documentation establishing such exemption or reduction (such as statements certifying qualification for exemption with respect to portfolio interest). In addition, each Lender agrees that from time to time after the Closing Date, when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, it will deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two new accurate and complete original signed copies of the applicable Internal Revenue Service Form establishing such exemption or reduction and any related documentation (such as statements certifying qualification for exemption with respect to portfolio interest) as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender to a continued exemption from or reduction in United States withholding tax if the Lender continues to be so entitled. Each Lender that is a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for Federal income tax purposes shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the Closing Date, or in the case of a Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.06 (unless the respective Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or transfer and such Lender is in compliance with the provisions of this Section) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or successor, substitute or other appropriate form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service). No Lender shall be required by this Section 3.03(b) to deliver a form or certificate that it is not legally entitled to deliver. The Borrower shall not be obligated pursuant to Section 3.03(a) hereof to pay additional amounts on account of or indemnify with respect to United States withholding taxes or backup withholding taxes to the extent that such taxes arise solely due to a Lender’s failure to deliver forms that it was legally entitled to but failed to deliver under this Section 3.03(b). Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Borrower agrees to pay additional amounts and indemnify each Lender in the manner and to the extent set forth in Section 3.03(a) in respect of any Taxes deducted or withheld by it as a result of any changes after the date in which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement in any applicable law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof, relating to the deducting or withholding of Taxes.

(c) If any Lender becomes aware that it has finally and irrevocably received or been granted a refund in respect of any Taxes as to which indemnification has been paid by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.03, it shall promptly remit such refund (including any interest received in respect thereof) to the relevant Borrower, net of all out-of-pocket costs and expenses to the Borrower; provided, however, that the Borrower agrees to promptly return any such refund (plus interest) to such Lender in the event such Lender is required to repay such refund to the relevant taxing authority and, provided further, that nothing in this Section 3.03(c) shall require any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential). Any such Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment from the relevant taxing authority (redacting any unrelated confidential information contained therein) requiring repayment of such refund. Nothing contained herein shall impose an obligation on any Lender to apply for any such refund.

(d) If a payment made to a Lender (or any other recipient) under this Agreement may be subject to withholding tax under the FATCA, such Lender (or recipient) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its withholding obligations, to determine that such Lender (or recipient) (including their direct or indirect interest holders, as may be relevant) has complied with its obligations under the FATCA such that no withholdings obligations exist and such Lender (and its direct or indirect interest holders, if

any) has entered into the required agreement with the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States of America or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

Section 3.04 Change of Lending Office; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Sections 3.01(a)(ii) or (iii), 3.01(c) or 3.03 requiring the payment of additional amounts to (or indemnify) the Lender, such Lender will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another Applicable Lending Office for any Loans or Commitments affected by such event; provided, however, that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its Applicable Lending Office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage deemed by such Lender to be material, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such Section.

(b) If (i) any Lender requests any compensation, reimbursement or other payment under Sections 3.01(a)(ii) or (iii) or 3.01(c) with respect to such Lender, (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or Governmental Authority pursuant to Section 3.03, (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender at such time or (iv) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 11.12(a), the consent of Required Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required shall not have been obtained; then, with respect to each such Lender pursuant to clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv), the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with the restrictions contained in Section 11.06(c), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations; provided, however, that such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees, but subject, in the case of a Defaulting Lender, to the provisions of Section 2.12(a)(ii) hereof) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts, including any breakage compensation under Section 3.02 hereof). A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Nothing in this Section 3.04 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in Sections 3.01 or 3.03. In the event such Lender is being replaced as a result of the condition set forth in clause (iii) above, each replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Lender being replaced was not consenting. Each Lender agrees that if the Borrower exercises its option hereunder to cause an assignment by such Lender under this Section 3.04(b), such Lender shall, promptly after receipt of written notice of such election, execute and deliver all documentation necessary to effectuate such assignment in accordance with Section 11.06. In the event that a Lender does not comply with the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence within one Business Day after receipt of such notice, each Lender hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver such documentation as may be required to give effect to an assignment in accordance with Section 11.06 on behalf of such Lender and any such documentation so executed by the Administrative Agent shall be effective for purposes of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 11.06.

ARTICLE V.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

In order to induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans provided for herein, the Borrower makes the following representations and warranties to, and agreements with, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, all of which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and each Credit Event:

Section 5.01 Corporate Status. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries (i) is a duly organized or formed and validly existing corporation, partnership or limited liability company, as the case may be, in good standing or in full force and effect under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation and has the corporate, partnership or limited liability company power and authority, as applicable, to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is engaged and presently proposes to engage, and (ii) has duly qualified and is authorized to do business in all jurisdictions where it is required to be so qualified or authorized except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Schedule 5.01 hereto lists, as of the Closing Date, each Subsidiary of the Borrower (and the direct and indirect ownership interest of the Borrower therein).

Section 5.02 Corporate Power and Authority. Each Credit Party has the corporate or other organizational power and authority to execute, deliver and carry out the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents to which it is party and has taken all necessary corporate or other organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is party. Each Credit Party has duly executed and delivered each Loan Document to which it is party and each Loan Document to which it is party constitutes the legal, valid and binding agreement and obligation of such Credit Party enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law).

Section 5.03 No Violation. Neither the execution, delivery and performance by any Credit Party of the Loan Documents to which it is party nor compliance with the terms and provisions thereof (i)

will contravene any provision of any law, statute, rule, regulation, order, writ, injunction or decree of any Governmental Authority applicable to such Credit Party or its properties and assets, except where such contravention would not have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) will conflict with or result in any breach of, any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien upon any of the property or assets of such Credit Party pursuant to the terms of any material promissory note, bond, debenture, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, credit or loan agreement, or any other material agreement or other instrument, to which such Credit Party is a party or by which it or any of its property or assets are bound or to which it may be subject, except to the extent such conflict, breach or lien would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, or (iii) will violate any provision of the Organizational Documents of such Credit Party.

Section 5.04 Governmental Approvals. No order, consent, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, any Governmental Authority is required to authorize or is required as a condition to (i) the execution, delivery and performance by any Credit Party of any Loan Document to which it is a party or any of its obligations thereunder, or (ii) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any Loan Document to which any Credit Party is a party, except for any such approvals or consents the failure of which to obtain would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.05 Litigation. Other than as set forth on Schedule 5.05, there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to, the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened with respect to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (i) that have had, or would reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect, or (ii) that question the validity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents, or of any action to be taken by the Borrower or any of the other Credit Parties required by any of the Loan Documents.

Section 5.06 Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations.

(a) The proceeds of all Loans shall be used by the Borrower for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including to repay Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and for Permitted Acquisitions, in each case, not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and not in violation of law.

(b) No part of the proceeds of any Credit Event will be used directly or indirectly to purchase or carry Margin Stock, or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, in violation of any of the provisions of Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. The Borrower is not engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock. At no time would more than 25% of the value of the assets of the Borrower or of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries that are subject to any “arrangement” (as such term is used in Section 221.2(g) of such Regulation U) hereunder be represented by Margin Stock.

Section 5.07 Financial Statements.

(a) The Borrower has furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders complete and correct copies of the Financial Statements. The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied (except as stated therein), and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates indicated and the consolidated results of their respective operations and cash flows for the respective periods indicated, subject in the case of any such Financial Statements that are unaudited, to normal audit adjustments, none

of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any its Subsidiaries have, as of the date of the latest Financial Statements referred to above, and will not have as of the Closing Date or after giving effect to the incurrence of Loans hereunder on the Funding Date, any material or significant contingent liability or liability for taxes, long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments not reflected in the foregoing financial statements (or any 10-K filed by the Borrower in connection therewith) or the notes thereto in accordance with GAAP and that in any such case is material in relation to the business, operations, properties, assets, financial or other condition or prospects of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.

(b) [Reserved].

Section 5.08 Solvency. The Borrower has received consideration that is the reasonable equivalent value of the obligations and liabilities that the Borrower has incurred to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents. The Borrower now has capital sufficient to carry on its business and transactions and all business and transactions in which it is about to engage and is now solvent and able to pay its debts as they mature and the Borrower owns property having a value, both at fair valuation and at present fair salable value, greater than the amount required to pay the Borrower’s debts; and the Borrower is not entering into the Loan Documents with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud its creditors. For purposes of this Section, “debt” means any liability on a claim, and “claim” means (x) right to payment whether or not such a right is reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, legal, equitable, secured or unsecured; or (y) right to an equitable remedy for breach of performance if such breach gives rise to a payment, whether or not such right to an equitable remedy is reduced to judgment, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, secured or unsecured.

Section 5.09 No Material Adverse Change. Since October 31, 2012, there has been no change in the business, affairs, operations, financial or other condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, or their properties and assets considered as an entirety, except for changes none of which, individually or in the aggregate, has had or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.10 Tax Returns and Payments. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have filed all federal income tax returns and all other material tax returns, domestic and foreign, required to be filed by it and has paid all material taxes and assessments payable by it that have become due, other than those not yet delinquent and except for those contested in good faith. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has established on its books such charges, accruals and reserves in respect of taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges for all fiscal periods as are required by GAAP. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries knows of any proposed assessment for additional federal, foreign or state taxes for any period, or of any basis therefor, which, individually or in the aggregate, taking into account such charges, accruals and reserves in respect thereof as the Borrower and its Subsidiaries have made, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.11 Title to Properties, etc. Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have good and marketable title, in the case of Real Property, and good title (or valid Leaseholds, in the case of any leased property), in the case of all other property, to all of its properties and assets free and clear of Liens other than Permitted Liens. Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the interests of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in the properties reflected in their most recent balance sheets, taken as a whole, are sufficient, in the judgment of the Borrower, as of the date of such balance sheet for purposes of the ownership and operation of the businesses conducted by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.

Section 5.12 Lawful Operations, etc. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries: (i) hold all necessary foreign, federal, state, local and other governmental licenses, registrations, certifications, permits and authorizations necessary to conduct its business; and (ii) are in full compliance with all requirements imposed by law, regulation or rule, whether foreign, federal, state or local, that are applicable to it, its operations, or its properties and assets, except for any failure to obtain and maintain in effect, or noncompliance, that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries have at any time (i) generated, used, treated or stored Hazardous Materials on any Real Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) released Hazardous Materials on any such Real Property, except, in each case, where such occurrence or event is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.14 Compliance with ERISA.

No Plan or trust created thereunder has been terminated within the last 5 years, and there have been no Reportable Events, with respect to any Plan or trust created thereunder or with respect to any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan, which termination or Reportable Event will or could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect with respect to the Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate in respect thereof. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary of the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate is at the date hereof, or has been at any time within the five years preceding the date hereof, an employer required to contribute to any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan, or a “contributing sponsor” (as such term is defined in Section 4001 of ERISA) in any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary of the Borrower has any contingent liability with respect to any post-retirement “welfare benefit plan” (as such term is defined in ERISA) except as has been disclosed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in writing or as would not have or be reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.15 Intellectual Property, etc. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have obtained or have the rights to all material patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and other rights with respect to the foregoing necessary for the present and planned future conduct of its business, without any known conflict with the rights of others, except in the case in which such conflict would not have or be reasonably expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect.

Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent agrees to act as such upon the express conditions contained in this Article.

Except for Section 9.11, the provisions of this Article IX are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and no Credit Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall act solely as agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 9.02 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact, and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except for its or such Related Parties’ own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower or any of their respective officers to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for the effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this Agreement or any Loan Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statement or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports, certificates or any other documents in connection herewith or therewith furnished or made by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders or by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or of the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default.

Section 9.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, e-mail or other electronic transmission, facsimile transmission, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason

of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders, as applicable, as to any matter that, pursuant to Section 11.12, can only be effectuated with the consent of all Lenders, or all Lenders, as the case may be), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.

Section 9.05 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

Section 9.06 Non-Reliance. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including, without limitation, any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, assets, property, financial and other conditions, prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties other than as specifically required by this Agreement.

Section 9.07 No Reliance on Administrative Agent’s Customer Identification Program. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”) or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with the Credit Parties or their respective Subsidiaries, any of their respective Affiliates or agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder: (a) any identity verification procedures, (b) any record keeping, (c) any comparisons with government lists, (d) any customer notices or (e) any other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other laws.

Section 9.08 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender that is not organized under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (and is not excepted from the certification requirement contained in Section 313 of the USA Patriot Act and the applicable regulations because it is both (a) an affiliate of a depository institution or foreign bank that maintains a physical presence in the United States or foreign country, and (b) subject to supervision by a banking authority regulating such affiliated depository institution or foreign bank) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the certification, or, if applicable, recertification, certifying that such Lender is not a “shell” and certifying to other matters as required by Section 313 of the USA Patriot Act and the applicable regulations: (i) within 10 days after the Closing Date, and (ii) at such other times as are required under the USA Patriot Act.

Section 9.09 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent and its Related Parties, ratably according to their pro rata share of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans (determined at the time such indemnification is sought), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, reasonable expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) or such Related Parties in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent or such Related Parties under or in connection with any of the foregoing, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing is not paid by the Borrower; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable to the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent resulting solely from the Administrative Agent’s or such Related Parties’ gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any indemnity furnished to the Administrative Agent or any such Related Parties for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations.

Section 9.10 The Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates as though not acting as Administrative Agent hereunder. With respect to the Loans made by it and all Obligations owing to it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

Section 9.11 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time upon not less than 30 days notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank or a trust company or other financial institution which maintains an office in the United States, or a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof, or any affiliate of such bank or trust company or other financial institution which is engaged in the banking business, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the requirements set forth in the preceding sentence; provided, however, that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no such successor is

willing to accept such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 11.02 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

Section 9.12 Other Agents. Except as expressly set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, any Lender identified herein as a Co-Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent, Co-Lead Arranger or Co-Bookrunner or any other corresponding title, other than “Administrative Agent,” shall have no right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or any other Loan Document except those applicable to all Lenders as such. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any Lender so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking any action hereunder.

Section 11.02 Indemnification. The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Agent and their respective Related Parties (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and hold each of them harmless against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses reasonably incurred by any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of (i) any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not any such Indemnitee is a party thereto) related to the entering into and/or performance of any Loan Document or the use of the proceeds of any Loans hereunder or the consummation of any transactions contemplated in any Loan Document, or (ii) (A) the presence of Hazardous Materials in the air, surface water or groundwater or on the surface or subsurface of any Real Property owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (B) the release, generation, storage, transportation, handling or disposal of Hazardous Materials at any location, whether or not owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, if the Borrower or any such Subsidiary could have or is alleged to have any responsibility in respect thereof pursuant to Environmental Laws, (C) the non-compliance by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries with Environmental Laws (including applicable permits thereunder), or (D) any Environmental Claim asserted against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, in respect of any Real Property owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, including, in the case of each of (i) and (ii) above, without limitation, the reasonable documented fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be indemnified or of any other Indemnitee who is such Person or an Affiliate of such Person). To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless any Person set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities that is permissible under applicable law.

Section 11.03 Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender), except to the extent prohibited by law, at any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender (including, without limitation, by branches, agencies and Affiliates of such Lender wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against and on account of the Obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to such Lender under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although said Obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees to promptly notify the Borrower after any such set off and application, provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application.

Section 11.04 Equalization.

(a) Equalization. If at any time any Lender receives any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents, or otherwise) that is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans (other than pursuant to Section 2.10(d)), of a sum that with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the

other Lenders an interest in the Obligations to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all of the Lenders in such amount.

(b) Recovery of Amounts. If any amount paid to any Lender pursuant to subpart (a) above is recovered in whole or in part from such Lender, such original purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price restored ratably to the extent of the recovery.

(c) Consent of Borrower. The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of all the Lenders, provided, further, that any assignment or participation by a Lender of any of its rights and obligations hereunder shall be effected in accordance with this Section 11.06.

(vi) each Lender that sells a participating interest in any of its rights hereunder or under any of the Notes shall, as agent of the Borrower solely for the purpose of this Section 11.06(b), record in book entries maintained by such Lender the name of each participant and the amount of the participating interest of the participant; provided, however, that the Lender shall have no obligation to show such book entries to any Credit Party.

and, provided further, that no Lender shall transfer, grant or sell any participation under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Loan Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (x) extend the final scheduled maturity or the date of any Scheduled Repayment of any of the Loans in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase such participant’s participating interest in any Commitment over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute a change in the terms of any such Commitment), (y) release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its guaranty of any of the Obligations, except strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or (z) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement.

(i) Any Lender may assign all, or if less than all, any portion of its Loans and/or Commitments and its rights and obligations hereunder to one or more Eligible Assignees, each of which shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment Agreement; provided, however, that

(A) except in the case (x) of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments or (y) an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund of any Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment so assigned (which for this purpose includes the Loans outstanding thereunder) shall not be less than $5,000,000;

(B) in the case of any assignment to an Eligible Assignee at the effective time of any such assignment, as determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with subsection (iv) below, the Lender Register shall be deemed modified to reflect the Commitments of such new Lender and of the existing Lenders;

(C) upon surrender of the old Notes, if any, upon request of the new Lender, new Notes will be issued, at the Borrower’s expense, to such new Lender and to the assigning Lender, to the extent needed to reflect the revised Commitments; and

(D) unless waived by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning or assignee Lender, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500 (treating multiple contemporaneous assignments to or from Approved Funds of a single Lender as one assignment for purposes of such requirement).

(ii) To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this subpart (c), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Commitments.

(iii) At the time of each assignment pursuant to this subpart (c) to a Person that is not already a Lender hereunder, the respective assignee Lender shall provide to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent the applicable Internal Revenue Service Forms (and any necessary additional documentation) described in Section 3.03(b).

(iv) With respect to any Lender, the transfer of any Commitment of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such Commitment (whether or not evidenced by a Note) shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Lender Register maintained by the Administrative Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitment and Loans and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitment and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Commitments and Loans shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Lender Register only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment Agreement pursuant to this subpart (c).

(v) Nothing in this Section shall prevent or prohibit (A) any Lender that is a bank, trust company or other financial institution from pledging its Notes or Loans to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank, or (B) any Lender that is a trust, limited liability company, partnership, fund or other investment company from pledging its Notes or Loans to a trustee or agent for the benefit of holders of certificates or debt securities issued by it. No such pledge, or any assignment pursuant to or in lieu of an enforcement of such a pledge, shall relieve the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder.

(d) No SEC Registration or Blue Sky Compliance. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section, no transfer or assignment of the interests or obligations of any Lender hereunder or any grant of participation therein shall be permitted if such transfer, assignment or grant would require the

Borrower to file a registration statement with the SEC or to qualify the Loans under the “Blue Sky” laws of any State.

(e) Representations of Lenders. Each Lender initially party to this Agreement hereby represents, and each Person that becomes a Lender pursuant to an assignment permitted by this Section will, upon its becoming party to this Agreement, represents that it is a commercial lender, other financial institution or other “accredited” investor (as defined in SEC Regulation D) that makes or acquires loans in the ordinary course of its business and that it will make or acquire Loans for its own account in the ordinary course of such business; provided, however, that subject to the preceding Sections 11.06(b) and (c), the disposition of any promissory notes or other evidences of or interests in Indebtedness held by such Lender shall at all times be within its exclusive control.

Section 11.07 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time. The rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies that the Administrative Agent or any Lender would otherwise have.

(c) Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information as would be exercised by a prudent person, acting reasonably and responsibly.

shall not relieve the Borrower, or any other Credit Party, of any of their obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

No claim may be made by any Credit Party, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person against the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or the Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents of any of them for any damages other than actual compensatory damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and the Borrower hereby, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, waives, releases and agrees not to sue or counterclaim upon any such claim for any special, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

Section 11.18 Survival of Representations and Warranties.

Section 11.20 Independence of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action, event, condition or circumstance is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations or restrictions of, another covenant, shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or event, condition or circumstance exists.

Section 11.21 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Base Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

Section 11.22 USA Patriot Act.
