of acceptance shall be substantially in the form of EXHIBIT F-4 and shall specify the aggregate principal amount of offers for each Interest Period that are accepted.  Borrower may accept any Bid Rate Quote in whole or in part; provided that:

(i)            the principal amount of each Bid Rate Loan may not exceed the applicable amount set forth in the related Bid Rate Quote Request or be less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) and shall be an integral multiple of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000);

(ii)           acceptance of offers with respect to a particular Interest Period may only be made on the basis of ascending LIBOR Bid Margins offered for such Interest Period from the lowest effective cost; and

(iii)          Borrower may not accept any offer that is described in subparagraph (c)(3) or that otherwise fails to comply with the requirements of this Agreement.

(f)            If offers are made by two (2) or more Banks with the same LIBOR Bid Margins, for a greater aggregate principal amount than the amount in respect of which such offers are permitted to be accepted for the related Interest Period, the principal amount of Bid Rate Loans in respect of which such offers are accepted shall be allocated by Administrative Agent among such Banks as nearly as possible (in multiples of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000)) in proportion to the aggregate principal amounts of such offers. Administrative Agent shall promptly (and in any event within one (1) Banking Day after such offers are accepted) notify Borrower and each such Bank in writing of any such allocation of Bid Rate Loans. Determinations by Administrative Agent of the allocation of Bid Rate Loans shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(g)           In the event that Borrower accepts the offer(s) contained in one (1) or more Bid Rate Quotes in accordance with paragraph (e), the Bank(s) making such offer(s) shall make a Bid Rate Loan in the accepted amount (as allocated, if necessary, pursuant to paragraph (f)) on the date specified therefor, in accordance with the procedures specified in Section 2.05.

(h)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Bank shall be required to fund its Pro Rata Share of the Available Total Loan Commitment in accordance with Section 2.01(b) despite the fact that any Bank’s Loan Commitment may have been or may be exceeded as a result of such Bank’s making Bid Rate Loans.

(i)            A Bank which is notified that it has been selected to make a Bid Rate Loan as provided above may designate its Designated Lender (if any) to fund such Bid Rate Loan on its behalf, as described in Section 12.15. Any Designated Lender which funds a Bid Rate Loan shall on and after the time of such funding become the obligee under such Bid Rate Loan and be entitled to receive payment thereof when due. No Bank shall be relieved of its obligation to fund a Bid Rate Loan, and no Designated Lender shall assume such obligation, prior to the time the applicable Bid Rate Loan is funded.

SECTION 2.03. Swingline Loan Subfacility.

(a)           Swingline Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during the period from the Closing Date to but excluding the Swingline Maturity Date, Swingline Lender, in its individual capacity, agrees to make certain revolving credit loans in Dollars to Borrower (each a “Swingline Loan” and, collectively, the “Swingline Loans”) from time to time during the term hereof; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans outstanding at any time shall not

31

exceed the least of (i) Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000), (ii) the Total Loan Commitment less the sum of (A) all Loans then outstanding, excluding Swingline Loans, and (B) the outstanding amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities and (iii) the Loan Commitment of the Bank then acting as the Swingline Lender less its Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of all Ratable Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities then outstanding (the “Swingline Commitment”). Subject to the limitations set forth herein, any amounts repaid in respect of Swingline Loans may be reborrowed.

(b)           Swingline Borrowings.

(1)           Notice of Borrowing. With respect to any Swingline Loan, Borrower shall give Swingline Lender and Administrative Agent notice in writing which is received by Swingline Lender and Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the proposed date of such Swingline Loan (and confirmed by telephone by such time), specifying (A) that a Swingline Loan is being requested, (B) the amount of such Swingline Loan, (C) the proposed date of such Swingline Loan, which shall be a Banking Day and (D) stating that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing both before and after giving effect to such Swingline Loan. Such notice shall be irrevocable.

(2)           Minimum Amounts. Each Swingline Loan shall be at least Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) and, or an integral multiple of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000).

(3)           Repayment of Swingline Loans. Each Swingline Loan shall be due and payable on the earliest of (A) five (5) Banking Days from and including the date of such Swingline Loan and (B) the Swingline Maturity Date. If, and to the extent, any Swingline Loans shall be outstanding on the date of any Ratable Loan, such Swingline Loans shall first be repaid from the proceeds of such Ratable Loan prior to the disbursement of the same to Borrower. If, and to the extent, a Ratable Loan is not requested prior to the earliest of the Swingline Maturity Date and the end of the five (5) Banking Day period after such Swingline Loan was made, or unless Borrower shall have notified Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third (3rd) Banking Day after such Swingline Loan was made that Borrower intends to reimburse Swingline Lender for the amount of such Swingline Loan with funds other than proceeds of Ratable Loans, Borrower shall be deemed to have requested Ratable Loans comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans in the amount of the applicable Swingline Loan then outstanding, the proceeds of which shall be used to repay such Swingline Loan to Swingline Lender. In addition, if (x) Borrower does not repay a Swingline Loan on or prior to the end of such five (5) Banking Day period, or (y) a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred during such five (5) Banking Day period, Swingline Lender may, at any time, in its sole discretion, by written notice to the Borrower and Administrative Agent, demand repayment of its Swingline Loans by way of Ratable Loans, in which case the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested Ratable Loans comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans in the amount of such Swingline Loans then outstanding, the proceeds of which shall be used to repay such Swingline Loans to Swingline Lender. Any Ratable Loan which is deemed requested by the Borrower in accordance with this Section 2.03(b)(3) is hereinafter referred to as a “Mandatory Borrowing”. Each Bank hereby irrevocably agrees to make Ratable Loans promptly upon receipt of notice from Administrative Agent of any such deemed request for a Mandatory Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentences and on the date such notice is received by such Bank (or the next Banking Day if such notice is received after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time)) notwithstanding (I) the amount of the Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount of Ratable Loans otherwise required hereunder, (II) whether any conditions specified in Section 4.02 are then satisfied, (III) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (IV) failure of any such deemed request for a Ratable Loan to be made by the time otherwise required

32

in Section 2.05, (V) the date of such Mandatory Borrowing (provided that such date must be a Banking Day), or (VI) any termination of the Loan Commitments immediately prior to such Mandatory Borrowing or contemporaneously therewith.

(4)           Purchase of Participations. In the event that any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Borrower), then each Bank hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payment received from the Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from Swingline Lender such participations in the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause each such Bank to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon its Pro Rata Share (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Loan Commitments), provided that (A) all interest payable on the Swingline Loans with respect to any participation shall be for the account of Swingline Lender until but excluding the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, and (B) in the event of a delay between the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred and the time any purchase of a participation pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Bank shall be required to pay to Swingline Lender interest on the principal amount of such participation for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate, for the two (2) Banking Days after the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, and thereafter at a rate equal to the Base Rate.

(c)           Interest Rate. Each Swingline Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from the date such Swingline Loan is made until the date it is repaid, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans or at such other rate or rates as Borrower and Swingline Lender may agree in writing.

SECTION 2.04. Advances, Generally.  Each borrowing of Ratable Loans shall be an aggregate principal amount of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) and in an integral multiple of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (or if less, the amount of the Available Total Loan Commitment).  Additional restrictions on the amounts and timing of, and conditions to the making of, advances of Bid Rate Loans and Swingline Loans are set forth in Sections 2.02 and 2.03, respectively.

Each advance shall be subject, in addition to the limitations and conditions applicable to advances of the Loans generally, to Administrative Agent’s receipt, on or immediately prior to the date the request for such advance is made, of a certificate from the officer requesting the advance certifying that Borrower is in compliance with all covenants enumerated in paragraphs 3(a) and 3(b) of Section 6.09 and containing covenant compliance calculations with respect to Sections 8.01 and 8.04 only, that include the proforma adjustments described below, which calculations shall demonstrate Borrower’s compliance with covenants on a proforma basis.

In connection with each advance of Loan proceeds, the following proforma adjustments shall be made to the covenant compliance calculations required with respect to Sections 8.01 and 8.04 as of the end of the most recently ended calendar quarter for which financial results are required hereunder to have been reported by Borrower:

(i)            Total Outstanding Indebtedness and Unsecured Indebtedness shall be adjusted by adding thereto, respectively, all Indebtedness and Unsecured Indebtedness, respectively, that is incurred and/or repaid by Borrower in connection with such advance;

33

(ii)           Capitalization Value shall be adjusted by adding thereto the purchase price of any Property or Equity Interests (including capitalized acquisition costs determined in accordance with GAAP) and any appropriate value of other assets that would otherwise be included under the Capitalization Value definition that are acquired in connection with such advance;

(iii)          Capitalization Value of Unencumbered Assets shall be adjusted by adding thereto the purchase price of any Property or Equity Interest and any appropriate value of other assets that would otherwise be included under the Capitalization Value of Unencumbered Assets definition that are acquired in connection with such advance; and

(iv)          For purposes of Section 8.01(i) and Section 8.04(l)(i), Unrestricted Cash and Cash Equivalents shall be increased as appropriate and for purposes of Section 8.04(l)(ii), the Unencumbered Indebtedness Adjustment shall be increased as appropriate.

SECTION 2.05. Procedures for Advances.  In the case of advances of Ratable Loans, Borrower shall submit to Administrative Agent a request for each such advance, stating the amount requested and the expected purpose for which such advance is to be used, no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date, in the case of advances of Base Rate Loans, which is one (1) Banking Day, and, in the case of advances of LIBOR Loans, which is three (3) Banking Days, prior to the date such advance is to be made. In the case of advances of Bid Rate Loans, Borrower shall submit a Bid Rate Quote Request at the time specified in Section 2.02. In the case of advances of Swingline Loans, Borrower shall submit a notice of borrowing at the time specified in Section 2.03.  Administrative Agent, upon its receipt and approval of the request for advance, will so notify the Banks. Not later than 11:30 a.m. (New York time) on the date of each advance, each Bank (in the case of Ratable Loans) or the applicable Banks (in the case of Bid Rate Loans) shall, through its Applicable Lending Office and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, make the amount to be advanced by it on such day available to Administrative Agent, at Administrative Agent’s Office and in immediately available funds for the account of Borrower. The amount so received by Administrative Agent shall, subject to the conditions of this Agreement, be made available to Borrower, in immediately available funds, by Administrative Agent’s wire of such amount to an account designated by Borrower in the Disbursement Instruction Agreement.  The proceeds of a Swingline Loan shall, subject to the conditions of this Agreement, be made available to Borrower, in immediately available funds, by Swingline Lender’s wire of such proceeds to an account designated by Borrower in the Disbursement Instruction Agreement.

SECTION 2.06. Interest Periods; Renewals.  In the case of the LIBOR Loans, Borrower shall select an Interest Period of any duration in accordance with the definition of “Interest Period”, subject to the following limitations: (1) no Interest Period may extend beyond the Maturity Date; (2) if an Interest Period would end on a day which is not a Banking Day, such Interest Period shall be extended to the next Banking Day, unless such Banking Day would fall in the next calendar month, in which event such Interest Period shall end on the immediately preceding Banking Day; and (3) only eight (8) Interest Periods for Ratable Loans may be outstanding at any one time.

Upon notice to Administrative Agent as provided in Section 2.14, Borrower may Continue any LIBOR Loan on the last day of the Interest Period of the same or different duration in accordance with the limitations provided above.

SECTION 2.07. Interest.  Borrower shall pay interest to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Bank on the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of the Loans, at a rate per annum as follows: (1) for Base Rate Loans at a rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; (2) for LIBOR Loans at a rate equal to the applicable LIBOR Interest Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and (3) for Bid Rate Loans at a rate equal to the applicable LIBOR Bid Rate.  Any principal amount not paid

34

when due (when scheduled, at acceleration or otherwise) shall bear interest thereafter, payable on demand, at the Default Rate.  While any Event of Default exists, at the election of Required Banks, the Borrower shall pay interest on all Obligations at the applicable Default Rate; provided that if an Event of Default under Section 9.01(5) exists or if any of the Obligations have been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default, all Obligations shall bear interest at the applicable Default Rate.

The interest rate on Base Rate Loans shall change when the Base Rate changes. Interest on Base Rate Loans, LIBOR Loans and Bid Rate Loans shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted under applicable law. Interest shall be calculated for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty (360) days.

Accrued interest shall be due and payable in arrears, (x) in the case of Base Rate Loans, on the first Banking Day of each calendar month and (y) in the case of Bid Rate Loans and LIBOR Loans, at the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, but no less frequently than once every three (3) months determined on the basis of the first (1st) day of the Interest Period applicable to the Loan in question; provided, however, that interest accruing at the Default Rate shall be due and payable on demand.  All accrued and unpaid interest on Swingline Loans shall be payable on the dates and in the manner provided above with respect to interest on Base Rate Loans (except as the Swingline Lender and Borrower may otherwise agree in writing in connection with any particular Swingline Loan).

The parties understand that during a Leverage Pricing Period the applicable interest rate for the Obligations and certain fees set forth herein may be determined and/or adjusted from time to time based upon certain financial ratios and/or other information to be provided or certified to the Banks by the Borrower (the “Borrower Information”).  If it is subsequently determined that any such Borrower Information was incorrect (for whatever reason, including without limitation because of a subsequent restatement of earnings by the Borrower) at the time it was delivered to the Administrative Agent, and if the applicable interest rate or fees calculated for any period during a Leverage Pricing Period were lower than they should have been had the correct information been timely provided, then, such interest rate and such fees for such period shall be automatically recalculated using correct Borrower Information.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing of any additional interest and fees due because of such recalculation, and the Borrower shall pay such additional interest or fees due to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Bank, within 5 Banking Days of receipt of such written notice.  Any recalculation of interest or fees required by this provision shall survive for a period of one year following the termination of this Agreement, and this provision shall not in any way limit any of the Administrative Agent’s, a Fronting Bank’s, or any Bank’s other rights under this Agreement.

SECTION 2.08. Fees.  Borrower shall, during the term of the Loans commencing as of the Closing Date, pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Bank a facility fee computed, on the daily Loan Commitment of such Bank, by multiplying the aggregate Loan Commitments on such day by an amount equal to the daily Facility Fee, calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of days elapsed. The accrued facility fee shall be due and payable in arrears on the first Banking Day of January, April, July and October of each year, commencing on the first such date after the Closing Date, and upon the Maturity Date (as the case may be accelerated) or earlier termination of the Loan Commitments.

SECTION 2.09. Notes; Records.  Except in the case of a Bank that has notified the Administrative Agent in writing that it elects not to receive a Ratable Loan Note, the Ratable Loans and Swingline Loans made by each Bank under this Agreement shall, in addition to this Agreement, be evidenced by, and repaid with interest in accordance with, a promissory note of Borrower substantially in the form of EXHIBIT B duly completed and executed by Borrower, in a principal amount equal to such Bank’s Loan Commitment, payable to such Bank for the account of its Applicable Lending Office (each

35

such note, as the same may hereafter be amended, modified, extended, severed, assigned, substituted, renewed or restated from time to time, including any substitute note pursuant to Section 3.07 or 12.04, a “Ratable Loan Note”). The Bid Rate Loans of the Banks shall be evidenced by a single global promissory note of Borrower substantially in the form of EXHIBIT C, duly completed and executed by Borrower, in the principal amount of Two Hundred Fifty Million Dollars ($250,000,000), subject to adjustment pursuant to Sections 2.15(a) and (c), payable to Administrative Agent for the account of the respective Banks making Bid Rate Loans (such note, as the same may hereafter be amended, modified, extended, severed, assigned, substituted, renewed or restated from time to time, the “Bid Rate Loan Note”). A particular Bank’s Ratable Loan Note, together with its interest, if any, in the Bid Rate Loan Note, are referred to collectively in this Agreement as such Bank’s “Note”; all such Ratable Loan Notes and interests are referred to collectively in this Agreement as the “Notes”. The Ratable Loans shall mature, and all outstanding principal of and accrued interest and other Obligations shall be paid in full, on the Maturity Date, or, in the case of Swingline Loans, in accordance with Section 2.03, in either case as the same may be accelerated in accordance with this Agreement. The outstanding principal amount of each Bid Rate Loan, and all accrued interest and other sums with respect thereto, shall become due and payable to the Bank making such Bid Rate Loan at the earlier of the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto or the Maturity Date, as the same may be accelerated in accordance with this Agreement.

The Loans made by each Bank shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Bank and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business.  The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Bank shall be conclusive (absent manifest error) of the amount of a Loan made by a Bank to Borrower and the interest and payments thereon.  Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations.  In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Bank and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

In connection with a Refinancing Mortgage, Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, a mortgage note, payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks, which shall be secured by the applicable Refinancing Mortgage. Such note shall be in such form as shall be requested by Borrower, subject to the Administrative Agent’s reasonable approval. Each reference in this Agreement to the “Notes” shall be deemed to refer to and include any or all of such mortgage notes, as the context may require.

SECTION 2.10. Prepayments.  Without prepayment premium or penalty but subject to Section 3.05, Borrower may, upon at least one (1) Banking Day’s notice to Administrative Agent in the case of the Base Rate Loans, and at least three (3) Banking Days’ notice to Administrative Agent in the case of LIBOR Loans, prepay Ratable Loans, in whole or in part, provided that (1) any partial prepayment under this Section shall be in integral multiples of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000); and (2) each prepayment under this Section shall include, at Administrative Agent’s option, all interest accrued on the amount of principal prepaid to (but excluding) the date of prepayment. Borrower shall have the right to prepay Bid Rate Loans only if so provided in the Bid Rate Loan Request, and otherwise with the consent of the Bank or the Designated Lender that funded the Bid Rate Loan that Borrower desires to prepay. Borrower may, from time to time on any Banking Day so long as prior notice is given to Administrative Agent and Swingline Lender no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day on which Borrower intends to make such prepayment, prepay any Swingline Loans in whole or in part in amounts aggregating at least One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), and in an integral multiple of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (or, if less, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Swingline Loans then outstanding) by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued

36

interest thereon to the date of prepayment by initiating a wire transfer of the principal and interest on the Swingline Loans no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on such day.

SECTION 2.11. Method of Payment.  Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement and under the Notes not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date when due in Dollars to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately available funds, without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the immediately following Banking Day). Borrower shall deliver federal reference number(s) evidencing the applicable wire transfer(s) to Administrative Agent as soon as available thereafter on such day. Subject to Section 9.03, Borrower shall, at the time of making each payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, specify to Administrative Agent the amounts payable by Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied.  Each payment received by Administrative Agent for the account of a Bank under this Agreement or any Note shall be paid to such Bank by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the wiring instructions provided by such Bank to Administrative Agent from time to time, for the account of such Bank at the Applicable Lending Office of such Bank.  Each payment received by Administrative Agent for the account of a Fronting Bank under this Agreement shall be paid to such Fronting Bank by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the wiring instructions provided by such Fronting Bank to Administrative Agent from time to time, for the account of such Fronting Bank.  If Administrative Agent fails to pay such amounts to a Bank or a Fronting Bank, as the case may be, within one Banking Day of receipt of such amounts, Administrative Agent shall pay interest on such amount until paid at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.

Except to the extent provided in this Agreement, whenever any payment to be made under this Agreement or under the Notes is due on any day other than a Banking Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Banking Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of interest and other fees, as the case may be.

SECTION 2.12. Elections, Conversions or Continuation of Loans.  Subject to the provisions of Article III and Sections 2.06 and 2.13, Borrower shall have the right to Elect to have all or a portion of any advance of Ratable Loans be LIBOR Loans, to Convert Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans, to Convert LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans, or to Continue LIBOR Loans as LIBOR Loans, at any time or from time to time, provided that: (1) Borrower shall give Administrative Agent notice of each such Election, Conversion or Continuation as provided in Section 2.14; and (2) a LIBOR Loan may be Continued or Converted only on the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Banks, may require, by notice to Borrower, that (i) no outstanding Ratable Loan may be converted to or continued as a LIBOR Loan and (ii) unless repaid, each Ratable Loan shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.13. Minimum Amounts.  With respect to the Ratable Loans as a whole, each Election and each Conversion shall be in an amount at least equal to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) and in integral multiples of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) or such lesser amount as shall be available or outstanding, as the case may be.

SECTION 2.14. Certain Notices Regarding Elections, Conversions and Continuations of Loans.  Notices by Borrower to Administrative Agent of Elections, Conversions and Continuations of LIBOR Loans shall be irrevocable and shall be effective only if received by Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the number of Banking Days prior to the date of the relevant Election, Conversion or Continuation specified below:

37

Promptly following its receipt of any such notice, Administrative Agent shall so advise the Banks. Each such notice of Election shall specify the portion of the amount of the advance that is to be LIBOR Loans (subject to Section 2.13) and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto (subject to Section 2.06); each such notice of Conversion shall specify the LIBOR Loans or Base Rate Loans to be Converted; and each such notice of Conversion or Continuation shall specify the date of Conversion or Continuation (which shall be a Banking Day), the amount thereof (subject to Section 2.13) and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto (subject to Section 2.06). In the event that Borrower fails to Elect to have any portion of an advance of the Ratable Loans be LIBOR Loans, the portion of such advance for which a LIBOR Loan Election is not made shall constitute Base Rate Loans. In the event that Borrower fails to Continue LIBOR Loans within the time period and as otherwise provided in this Section, such LIBOR Loans will be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day of the then current applicable Interest Period for such LIBOR Loans.

SECTION 2.15. Changes of Loan Commitments.

(a)           At any time, Borrower shall have the right, without premium or penalty, to terminate any unused Loan Commitments existing as of the date of such termination, in whole or in part, from time to time, provided that: (1) Borrower shall give notice of each such termination to Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify each of the Banks) no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date which is three (3) Banking Days prior to the effectiveness of such termination; (2) the Loan Commitments of each of the Banks must be terminated (and, in the case of a partial termination, on a pro rata basis) (taking into account, however, Section 2.02(h)) and simultaneously with those of the other Banks; (3) each partial termination of the Loan Commitments in the aggregate (and corresponding reduction of the Total Loan Commitment) shall be in an integral multiple of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000); and (4) Borrower may not reduce the aggregate amount of the Loan Commitments below One Hundred Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($125,000,000) unless the Borrower is terminating the Total Loan Commitments in full. A reduction of the unused Loan Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall not effect a reduction in the Swingline Commitment (unless so elected by the Borrower) until the aggregate unused Loan Commitments have been reduced to an amount equal to or less than the Swingline Commitment.

(b)           The Loan Commitments and the Swingline Commitment, to the extent terminated pursuant to this Section 2.15, may not be reinstated.

(c)           Unless a Default under Section 9.01(1) or 9.01(5) or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower, by written notice to Administrative Agent, may request on up to four (4) occasions during the term of this Agreement that the Total Loan Commitment be increased by an amount not less than Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000) per request and not more than Four Hundred Million Dollars ($400,000,000) in the aggregate (such that the Total Loan Commitment after such increase shall never exceed Nine Hundred Million Dollars ($900,000,000)); provided that for any such request (a) the Borrower shall not have delivered an Extension Notice prior to, or simultaneously with, such request, (b) any Bank which is a party to this Agreement prior to such request for increase, at its sole discretion, may elect to increase its Loan Commitment but shall not have any obligation to so increase its Loan Commitment and (c) such request shall be accompanied by a certificate from the Borrower confirming that the representations and warranties of Borrower and each other Loan Party contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of the requested increase in the Total Loan Commitments (except in those cases where such

38

representation or warranty expressly relates to an earlier date or is qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Change” or similar language (which shall be true and correct in all respects as qualified therein) and except for changes in factual circumstances permitted hereunder).  Administrative Agent, in consultation with Borrower, shall manage all aspects of the syndication of such increase in the Total Loan Commitments, including decisions as to the selection of the existing Banks and/or other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders to be approached with respect to such increase and the allocations of the increase in the Total Loan Commitments among such existing Banks and/or other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders. In the event that existing Banks or Persons that will become Banks commit to any such increase, the Total Loan Commitment and the Loan Commitments of the committed Banks shall be increased, the Pro Rata Shares of the Banks shall be adjusted, new Notes shall be issued, Borrower shall make such borrowings and repayments as shall be necessary to effect the reallocation of the Ratable Loans so that the Ratable Loans are held by the Banks in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares after giving effect to such increase, and other changes shall be made to the Loan Documents as may be necessary to reflect the aggregate amount, if any, by which Banks have agreed to increase their respective Loan Commitments or make new Loan Commitments in response to the Borrower’s request for an increase in the Total Loan Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.15(c), in each case without the consent of the Banks other than those Banks increasing their Loan Commitments. The fees payable by Borrower upon any such increase in the Total Loan Commitment shall be agreed upon by the Joint Lead Arrangers and Borrower at the time of such increase.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 2.15(c) shall constitute or be deemed to constitute an agreement by any Bank to increase its Loan Commitment hereunder.

SECTION 2.16. Letters of Credit.

(a)           During the period from the Closing Date to but excluding the Maturity Date, Borrower, by notice to Administrative Agent and the applicable Fronting Bank, may request, in lieu of advances of proceeds of the Ratable Loans, that a Fronting Bank issue unconditional, irrevocable standby letters of credit (each, a “Letter of Credit”) for the account of Borrower or its designee (which shall be a Subsidiary or other Affiliate of Borrower) (it being understood that the issuance of a Letter of Credit for the account of a designee shall not in any way relieve Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder), payable by sight drafts, for such beneficiaries and with such other terms as Borrower shall specify and which are reasonably acceptable to such Fronting Bank. Unless the applicable Fronting Bank has received written notice from the Administrative Agent, not less than one (1) Banking Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Section 4.02 shall not have been satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Fronting Bank, on the requested date, shall issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such Fronting Bank’s usual and customary business practices. Promptly upon issuance of a Letter of Credit by a Fronting Bank, such Fronting Bank shall notify Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent shall notify each of the Banks.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Fronting Banks shall have no obligation hereunder to issue, and shall not issue, any Letter of Credit the proceeds of which would be made available to any Person (i) to fund any activity or business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory that, at the time of such funding, is the subject or target of any Sanctions or (ii) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement.

(b)           The amount of any such Letter of Credit shall be limited to the lesser of (1) Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000) (as such amount may be reduced by written notice from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent consistent with the requirements of Section 2.15(a) so long as the outstanding Letters of Credit do not exceed such reduced amount) less the aggregate face amount of all other Letters of Credit then issued and outstanding or (2) the Available Total Loan Commitment, it being understood

39

that the amount of each Letter of Credit issued and outstanding shall effect a reduction, by an equal amount, of the Available Total Loan Commitment as provided in Section 2.01(b) (such reduction to be allocated to each Bank’s Loan Commitment ratably in accordance with the Banks’ respective Pro Rata Shares); provided, however, that (i) no Fronting Bank shall be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit issued by such Fronting Bank would exceed Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000) and (ii) a Fronting Bank (other than Wells Fargo Bank, National Association) shall not issue a Letter of Credit unless the aggregate stated amount of outstanding Letters of Credit issued by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association would exceed Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000) if Wells Fargo Bank, National Association were to issue such Letter of Credit.  Upon the issuance by a Fronting Bank of a Letter of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, the Loan Commitment of each Bank shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to the product of such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of such Letter of Credit plus any related Reimbursement Obligations in respect of such Letter of Credit then outstanding.

(c)           The amount of each Letter of Credit shall be further subject to the conditions and limitations applicable to amounts of advances set forth in Section 2.04 and the procedures for the issuance of each Letter of Credit shall be the same as the procedures applicable to the making of advances as set forth in the first sentence of Section 2.05.

(d)           A Fronting Bank’s issuance of each Letter of Credit shall be subject to Borrower’s satisfaction of all conditions precedent to its entitlement to an advance of proceeds of the Loans.

(e)           Each Letter of Credit shall (i) unless approved by the Administrative Agent and the Fronting Bank that is to issue such Letter of Credit, expire no later than the earlier of (x) seven (7) days prior to the Maturity Date or (y) one (1) year after the date of its issuance; provided, however, a Letter of Credit may contain a provision providing for the automatic extension of its expiration date in the absence of a notice of non-renewal from the relevant Fronting Bank but (unless approved by the Administrative Agent and the Fronting Bank that is to issue such Letter of Credit) in no event shall any such provision permit the extension of the expiration date of such Letter of Credit beyond the date that is fifteen (15) days prior to the Maturity Date and (ii) be in a minimum amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), or such lesser amount approved by the applicable Fronting Bank.  In no event shall a Letter of Credit expire later than the first anniversary of the Maturity Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that, with the approval of the Administrative Agent and each Fronting Bank with a Letter of Credit then outstanding, any Letters of Credit are issued and outstanding on the date that is fourteen (14) days prior to the Maturity Date (any such Letter of Credit being referred to as an “Extended Letter of Credit”), Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent on such date by wire transfer of immediately available funds a cash deposit in the amount of such Letters of Credit in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.16(i).  To the extent Borrower fails to provide such cash deposit with respect to any Extended Letter of Credit by the date that is fourteen (14) days prior to the Maturity Date, such failure shall be treated as a drawing under such Extended Letter of Credit (in an amount equal to the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit), which shall be reimbursed (or participations therein funded) by the Banks in accordance with Section 2.16(h), with the proceeds being utilized to provide such cash deposit for such Extended Letter of Credit.  Such funds shall be held by Administrative Agent and applied to repay the amount of any drawing under such Extended Letters of Credit on or after the Maturity Date.  Such funds, with any interest earned thereon, will be returned to Borrower (and may be returned from time to time with respect to any applicable Extended Letter of Credit) on the earlier of (a) the date that the applicable Extended Letter of Credit or Extended Letters of Credit expire in accordance with their terms; and (b) the date that the applicable Extended Letter of Credit or Extended Letters of Credit are cancelled; provided that upon the expiration or cancellation of an Extended Letter of Credit for which the Banks reimbursed (or funded participations in) a drawing deemed to have occurred as provided in this Section 2.16 but in respect of

40

which the Banks have not otherwise received payment for the amount so reimbursed or funded, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Banks the amount of such funds so reimbursed or funded for such Extended Letter of Credit, pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid reimbursements or funded participations of the Banks in respect of such Extended Letter of Credit.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to, and shall not, return any such funds to the extent doing so would result in the amount of such funds being less than the stated amount of all Extended Letters of Credit then outstanding.

(f)            In connection with, and as a further condition to the issuance of, a Letter of Credit, Borrower shall execute and deliver to the relevant Fronting Bank an application for the Letter of Credit in such form, and together with such other documents, opinions and assurances, as such Fronting Bank shall reasonably require.

(g)           In connection with each Letter of Credit, Borrower hereby covenants to pay (i) to Administrative Agent, quarterly in arrears (on the first Banking Day of each calendar quarter following the issuance of such Letter of Credit), a fee, payable to Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks, computed daily (calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of days elapsed) on the face amount of such Letter of Credit issued and outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the “Banks’ L/C Fee Rate” (as hereinafter defined) and (ii) to the Fronting Bank of such Letter of Credit on the date that such Letter of Credit is issued, an issuance fee of 0.125% (or such other amount as the Borrower and such Fronting Bank may agree in writing) of the face amount of such Letter of Credit, payable to the applicable Fronting Bank only at the time of issuance of such letter of credit.  Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility for the collection of the fee for any Letter of Credit that is payable to a Fronting Bank. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Banks’ L/C Fee Rate” shall mean, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, a rate per annum (calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of days elapsed) equal to the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans minus 0.125% and, in the event an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, a rate per annum (calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of days elapsed) equal to the Default Rate. It is understood and agreed that the last installment of the fees provided for in this paragraph (g) with respect to any particular Letter of Credit shall be due and payable on the first day of the calendar quarter following the surrender, cancellation or expiration of such Letter of Credit.  Borrower shall pay directly to a Fronting Bank from time to time on demand all commissions, charges, costs and expenses (excluding any issuance fee other than as provided in clause (ii) above) in the amounts customarily charged or incurred by such Fronting Bank from time to time in like circumstances with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any other transaction relating thereto.

(h)           A Fronting Bank shall promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent of any drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by such Fronting Bank. Borrower hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to pay and reimburse each Fronting Bank for the amount of each demand for payment under each Letter of Credit issued by such Fronting Bank at or prior to the date on which payment is to be made by such Fronting Bank to the beneficiary thereunder, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind.  Upon its receipt of a notice referred to in the first sentence of this subsection, Borrower shall advise the Administrative Agent and the applicable Fronting Bank whether or not Borrower intends to borrow hereunder to finance its obligation to reimburse such Fronting Bank for the amount of the related demand for payment and if it does Borrower shall submit a timely request for such borrowing as provided in the applicable provisions of this Agreement.  If Borrower fails to so advise the Administrative Agent and such Fronting Bank, or if Borrower fails to reimburse such Fronting Bank for a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit by the date of such payment (the failure of which such Fronting Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent), then Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks of such failure and of any drawing under a Letter of Credit,

41

and each Bank shall, notwithstanding the existence of a Default or Event of Default or the non-satisfaction of any conditions precedent to the making of an advance of the Loans, advance proceeds of a Ratable Loan, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such drawing, which advance shall be made to Administrative Agent for disbursement to the Fronting Bank issuing such Letter of Credit to reimburse such Fronting Bank, for its own account, for such drawing.  The Borrower’s failure to reimburse a Fronting Bank as provided above shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default so long as the conditions set forth in Section 4.02(1) and (2) to the making of Loan are satisfied at such time.  Each of the Banks further acknowledges that its obligation to fund its Pro Rata Share of drawings under Letters of Credit as aforesaid shall survive the Banks’ termination of this Agreement or enforcement of remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. If any Ratable Loan cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy law with respect to Borrower), then each of the Banks shall purchase (on the date such Ratable Loan would otherwise have been made) from the applicable Fronting Bank a participation interest in any unreimbursed drawing in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such unreimbursed drawing.  Each Bank confirms that its obligations under this subsection (h) shall be reinstated in full and apply if the delivery of any cash deposit in respect of an Extended Letter of Credit is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise.

(i)            Borrower agrees (i) as required by Section 9.02 upon and during the occurrence of an Event of Default and (ii) as required by Section 2.16(e) with respect to Extended Letters of Credit, (x) to deposit with Administrative Agent cash collateral in the amount of all the outstanding Letters of Credit or Extended Letters of Credit as applicable, which cash collateral is hereby pledged and shall be held by Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Banks and the Fronting Banks in an account as security for Borrower’s obligations in connection with the Letters of Credit and (y) to execute and deliver to Administrative Agent such documents as Administrative Agent requests to confirm and perfect the assignment of such cash collateral and such account to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Banks.  Any such cash collateral deposited with Administrative Agent as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default shall be returned immediately to Borrower upon the cure of such Event of Default.

(j)            In examining documents presented in connection with drawings under Letters of Credit and making payments under such Letters of Credit against such documents, a Fronting Bank shall only be required to use the same standard of care as it uses in connection with examining documents presented in connection with drawings under letters of credit in which it has not sold participations and making payments under such letters of credit.  Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, none of the Fronting Banks, Administrative Agent or any of the Banks shall be responsible for, and Borrower’s obligations in respect of Letters of Credit shall not be affected in any manner by, (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effects of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of or any drawing honored under any Letter of Credit even if such document should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit, or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telex, telecopy, electronic mail or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds of

42

any drawing under any Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of a Fronting Bank, the Administrative Agent or the Banks.  None of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the rights or powers of the Fronting Banks or Administrative Agent hereunder.  Any action taken or omitted to be taken by a Fronting Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment), shall not create against such Fronting Bank any liability to Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Bank.  In this connection, the obligation of Borrower to reimburse a Fronting Bank for any drawing made under any Letter of Credit issued by it, and to repay the Ratable Loans made pursuant to the last sentence of the immediately preceding subsection (h), shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any other applicable Letter of Credit Document under all circumstances whatsoever, including without limitation, the following circumstances: (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit Document or any term or provisions therein; (B) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the Letter of Credit Documents; (C) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which Borrower may have at any time against a Fronting Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Bank, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or in the Letter of Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction; (D) any breach of contract or dispute between Borrower, a Fronting Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Bank or any other Person; (E) any demand, statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein or made in connection therewith being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (F) any non application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; (G) payment by a Fronting Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate which does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and (H) any other act, omission to act, delay or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable defense to or discharge of Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section or Section 12.03., but not in limitation of Borrower’s unconditional obligation to reimburse a Fronting Bank for any drawing made under a Letter of Credit issued by it as provided in this Section and to repay any Ratable Loan made pursuant to the penultimate sentence of the immediately preceding subsection (h), Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify the Administrative Agent, a Fronting Bank or any Bank in respect of any liability incurred by the Administrative Agent, such Fronting Bank or such Bank arising solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, such Fronting Bank or such Bank in respect of a Letter of Credit as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment.  Notwithstanding anything herein that may be to the contrary, nothing in this Section or in the Loan Documents shall affect any rights Borrower may have with respect to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, a Fronting Bank or any Bank with respect to any Letter of Credit.

(k)           The issuance by a Fronting Bank of any amendment, supplement or other modification to any Letter of Credit issued by it shall be subject to the same conditions applicable under this Agreement to the issuance of new Letters of Credit, and no such amendment, supplement or other modification shall be issued unless either (i) the respective Letter of Credit affected thereby would have complied with such conditions had it originally been issued hereunder in such amended, supplemented or modified form or (ii) the Administrative Agent and the Banks, if any, required by Section 12.02 shall have consented thereto.

(l)            Promptly following any change in Letters of Credit outstanding, the relevant Fronting Bank shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly deliver the same to each Bank and Borrower, a notice describing the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit issued by such Fronting Banks

43

that are outstanding at such time.  Upon the request of the Administrative Agent from time to time, a Fronting Bank shall deliver any other information reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Fronting Bank then outstanding.  Other than as set forth in this subsection, a Fronting Bank shall have no duty to notify the Banks regarding the issuance or other matters regarding Letters of Credit issued hereunder.  The failure of a Fronting Bank to perform its requirements under this subsection shall not relieve any Bank from its obligations under the immediately preceding subsection (h).

(m)          In addition to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association and PNC Bank, National Association, Borrower may from time to time, with notice to the Banks and the written consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the applicable Bank being so appointed, appoint additional Banks to be Fronting Banks hereunder.  Upon the appointment of a Bank as a Fronting Bank hereunder such Person shall become vested will all the rights, powers, privileges and duties as a Fronting Bank hereunder.

SECTION 2.17. Extension Option.  Borrower may extend the Maturity Date two times only for a period of six (6) months per extension upon satisfaction of the following terms and conditions for each extension: (i) delivery by Borrower of a written notice to Administrative Agent (an “Extension Notice”) on or before a date that is not more than one hundred eighty (180) days nor less than ninety (90) days prior to the then-scheduled Maturity Date, which Extension Notice Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver to the Banks, which Extension Notice shall include a certification dated as of the date of such Extension Notice signed by a duly authorized signatory of Borrower, stating, to the best of the certifying party’s knowledge, (x) all representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and in each of the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such Extension Notice (except in those cases where such representation or warranty expressly relates to an earlier date or is qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Change” or similar language (which shall be true and correct in all respects as qualified therein) and except for changes in factual circumstances permitted hereunder), and (y) no Default under Section 9.01(1) and no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (ii) no Default under Section 9.01(1) and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the original Maturity Date (an “Extension Date”), and (iii) Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent on or before such Extension Date a fee equal to 0.075% of the Total Loan Commitment on such Extension Date, which fee shall be distributed by Administrative Agent pro rata to each of the Banks based on each Bank’s Pro Rata Share; provided, however, that the extension fee set forth in this Section 2.17 shall not be payable if the Borrower rescinds the Extension Notice prior to the then current Maturity Date.

SECTION 2.19. Funds Transfer Disbursements.  Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of any Loan made by the Banks or any of their Affiliates pursuant to the Loan Documents as requested by an authorized representative of the Borrower to any of the accounts designated in the Disbursement Instruction Agreement.

ARTICLE III.  YIELD PROTECTION; ILLEGALITY; ETC.

SECTION 3.01. Additional Costs.  Borrower shall pay directly to each Bank from time to time on demand such amounts as such Bank may reasonably determine to be necessary to compensate it for any increased costs which such Bank determines are attributable to its making, Continuing, Converting to, or maintaining a LIBOR Loan or making or maintaining a Bid Rate Loan, or its obligation to make, maintain, Continue or Convert to a LIBOR Loan or make or maintain a Bid Rate Loan, or its obligation to Convert a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan hereunder, or any reduction in any amount receivable by such Bank hereunder in respect of its LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan(s) or such obligations (such

44

increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), in each case resulting from any Regulatory Change which:

(1)           subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(2)           (other than Regulation D or other similar reserve requirement applicable to any other category of liabilities or category of extensions of credit or other assets by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans or Bid Rate Loans is determined to the extent utilized when determining the LIBOR Interest Rate for such Loans) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge, liquidity, deposit insurance or assessment, minimum capital, capital ratio or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, such Bank (including any LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan or any deposits referred to in the definition of “LIBOR Interest Rate”), or any commitment of such Bank (including such Bank’s Loan Commitment hereunder); or

(3)           imposes any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or the Notes (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities).

Without limiting the effect of the provisions of the first paragraph of this Section, in the event that, by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Bank becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets which it may hold, then, if such Bank so elects by notice to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent), the obligation of such Bank to permit Elections of, to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended (in which case the provisions of Section 3.04 shall be applicable) until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect.  The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive the repayment of all amounts due under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents and the termination of the Loan Commitments in respect of the period prior to such termination.

Determinations and allocations by a Bank or Fronting Bank for purposes of this Section of the effect of any Regulatory Change pursuant to the preceding paragraphs of this Section, on its costs or rate of return of making, Continuing, Converting to, or maintaining its Loan or portions thereof or on amounts receivable by it in respect of its Loan or portions thereof or issuing or maintaining Letters of Credit (or participations therein), and the amounts required to compensate such Bank or Fronting Bank under this Section, shall be included in a calculation of such amounts given to Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article III to the contrary, Borrower shall only be obligated to pay any amounts due under this Section 3.01 or under Section 3.06 if, and a Bank shall not exercise any right under this Section 3.01 or Sections 3.02, 3.03, 3.04 or 3.06 unless, the applicable Bank is generally imposing a similar charge on, or otherwise similarly enforcing its agreements with, its other similarly situated borrowers. In addition, Borrower shall not be obligated to compensate any Bank under any such provision for any amounts attributable to any period which is more than one (1) year prior to such Bank’s delivery of notice thereof to Borrower; provided that, if the circumstance giving rise to Borrower’s obligation to compensate any Bank under any such provision is retroactive, then such one-year period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

For purposes of this Section 3.01, the term “Bank” includes any Fronting Bank.

45

SECTION 3.02. Alternate Rate of Interest.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of the LIBOR Interest Rate for any Interest Period:

(1)           Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive, absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Interest Rate for such Interest Period; or

(2)           Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of “LIBOR Interest Rate” upon the basis of which the rate of interest for LIBOR Loans or Bid Rate Loans for such Interest Period is to be determined do not adequately cover the cost to any Bank of making or maintaining such LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Banks as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Banks that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any notice by the Borrower of Election, Conversion or Continuation that requests the Conversion of any Loan to, or Continuation of any Loan as, a LIBOR Loan shall be ineffective, (ii) if the Borrower requests a Ratable Loan, such Loan shall be made or Continued as a Base Rate Loan and (iii) any request by the Borrower for a Bid Rate Loan shall be ineffective; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice do not affect all the Banks, then requests by the Borrower for Bid Rate Loans may be made to Banks that are not affected thereby.

SECTION 3.03. Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for any Bank or its Applicable Lending Office to honor its obligation to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan hereunder, to allow Elections or Continuations of a LIBOR Loan or to Convert a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan, then such Bank shall promptly notify Administrative Agent and Borrower thereof and such Bank’s obligation to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan, or to permit Elections of, to Continue, or to Convert its Base Rate Loan into, a LIBOR Loan shall be suspended (in which case the provisions of Section 3.04 shall be applicable) until such time as such Bank may again make and maintain a LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan.

SECTION 3.04. Treatment of Affected Loans.  If the obligations of any Bank to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan or a Bid Rate Loan, or to permit an Election of a LIBOR Loan, to Continue its LIBOR Loan, or to Convert its Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan, are suspended pursuant to Section 3.02 or 3.03 (each LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan so affected being herein called an “Affected Loan”), such Bank’s Affected Loan shall be automatically Converted into a Base Rate Loan (or, in the case of an Affected Loan that is a Bid Rate Loan, the interest rate thereon shall be converted to the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans) on the last day of the then current Interest Period for the Affected Loan (or, in the case of a Conversion or conversion resulting from Section 3.03, on such earlier date as such Bank may specify to Borrower).

To the extent that such Bank’s Affected Loan has been so Converted (or the interest rate thereon so converted), all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise be applied to such Bank’s Affected Loan shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loan (or to its Bid Rate Loan bearing interest at the converted rate) and such Bank shall have no obligation to Convert its Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan.

SECTION 3.05. Certain Compensation.  Other than in connection with a Conversion of an Affected Loan, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Bank, upon the request of Administrative Agent which request includes a calculation of the amount(s) due, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of Administrative Agent) to

46

compensate such Bank for any loss, cost or expense which such Bank reasonably determines is attributable to:

(1)           any payment or prepayment of a LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan made by such Bank, or any Conversion of a LIBOR Loan (or conversion of the rate of interest on a Bid Rate Loan) made by such Bank, in any such case on a date other than the last day of an applicable Interest Period, whether by reason of acceleration, the exercise by Borrower of its rights under Section 3.07 or otherwise;

(2)           any failure by Borrower for any reason to Convert a LIBOR Loan or a Base Rate Loan or to Continue a LIBOR Loan, as the case may be, to be Converted or Continued by such Bank on the date specified therefor in the relevant notice under Section 2.14;

(3)           any failure by Borrower to borrow (or to qualify for a borrowing of) a LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan which would otherwise be made hereunder on the date specified in the relevant Election notice under Section 2.14 or Bid Rate Quote acceptance under Section 2.02(e) given or submitted by Borrower; or

(4)           any failure by Borrower to prepay a LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan on the date specified in a notice of prepayment.

Without limiting the foregoing, such compensation shall include an amount equal to the present value (using as the discount rate an interest rate equal to the rate determined under (2) below) of the excess, if any, of (1) the amount of interest (less the Applicable Margin) which otherwise would have accrued on the principal amount so paid, prepaid, Converted or Continued (or not Converted, Continued or borrowed) for the period from the date of such payment, prepayment, Conversion or Continuation (or failure to Convert, Continue or borrow) to the last day of the then current applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to Convert, Continue or borrow, to the last day of the applicable Interest Period which would have commenced on the date specified therefor in the relevant notice) at the applicable rate of interest for the LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan provided for herein, over (2) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Bank) based upon the interest rate which such Bank would have bid in the London interbank market for Dollar deposits, for amounts comparable to such principal amount and maturities comparable to such period. A determination of Administrative Agent as to the amounts payable pursuant to this Section shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive the repayment of all amounts due under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents and the termination of the Loan Commitments in respect of the period prior to such termination.

SECTION 3.06. Capital Adequacy.  If any Bank shall have determined that, after the date hereof, due to any Regulatory Change or the adoption of, or any change in, any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Bank (or its Parent) as a consequence of such Bank’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to Administrative Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as

47

will compensate such Bank (or its Parent) for such reduction. A certificate of any Bank claiming compensation under this Section, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis therefor, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive the repayment of all amounts due under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents and the termination of the Loan Commitments in respect of the period prior to such termination.

SECTION 3.07. Substitution of Banks.  If any Bank (an “Affected Bank”) (i) makes demand upon Borrower for (or if Borrower is otherwise required to pay) Additional Costs pursuant to Section 3.01, (ii) is unable to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan or Bid Rate Loan as a result of a condition described in Section 3.03 or clause (2) of Section 3.02, (iii) has any increased costs as described in Section 3.06, or (iv) requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or other amounts to such Bank or any Governmental Authority pursuant to Section 10.13, Borrower may, within ninety (90) days of receipt of such demand or notice of the occurrence of an event described above in this Section 3.07) (provided such 90-day period shall be extended for an additional period of 60 days if Borrower shall have attempted during such 90-day period to secure a Replacement Bank (as defined below) and shall be diligently pursuing such attempt), give written notice (a “Replacement Notice”) to Administrative Agent and to each Bank of Borrower’s intention either (x) to prepay in full the Affected Bank’s Loans and to terminate the Affected Bank’s entire Loan Commitment or (y) to replace the Affected Bank with another financial institution (the “Replacement Bank”) designated in such Replacement Notice. After its replacement, an Affected Bank shall remain entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.06, 10.13 and 12.03 in respect of the period prior to its replacement.

In the event Borrower opts to give the notice provided for in clause (x) above, and if the Affected Bank shall not agree within thirty (30) days of its receipt thereof to waive the payment of the Additional Costs, Indemnified Taxes or other amounts in question or the effect of the circumstances described in Section 3.03, in clause (2) of Section 3.02 or in Section 3.06, then, so long as no Event of Default shall exist, Borrower may (notwithstanding the provisions of clause (2) of Section 2.15(a)) terminate the Affected Bank’s entire Loan Commitment; provided that in connection therewith it pays to the Affected Bank all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the Affected Bank’s Loans, together with all other amounts, if any, due from Borrower to the Affected Bank, including all amounts properly demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 3.01, 3.05, 3.06 or 10.13. After any termination as provided in this paragraph, an Affected Bank shall remain entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.06, 10.13 and 12.04 in respect of the period prior to such termination.

In the event Borrower opts to give the notice provided for in clause (y) above, and if Administrative Agent shall promptly (and in any event, within thirty (30) days of its receipt of the Replacement Notice), notify Borrower and each Bank in writing that the Replacement Bank is reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, then the Affected Bank shall, so long as no Event of Default shall exist, assign its Loans and all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to the Replacement Bank, and the Replacement Bank shall assume all of the Affected Bank’s rights and obligations, pursuant to an agreement, substantially in the form of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, executed by the Affected Bank and the Replacement Bank. In connection with such assignment and assumption, the Replacement Bank shall pay to the Affected Bank an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Affected Bank’s Loans plus all interest accrued thereon, plus all other amounts, if any (other than the Additional Costs in question), then due and payable to the Affected Bank; provided, however, that prior to or simultaneously with any such assignment and assumption, Borrower shall have paid to such Affected Bank all amounts properly demanded and reimbursable under Sections 3.01, 3.05 or 10.13. Upon the effective date of such assignment and assumption, the Replacement Bank shall become a Bank party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, and the Affected Bank shall be released from its obligations hereunder, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any

48

assignment pursuant to this Section, if requested by the Replacement Bank, a substitute Ratable Loan Note shall be issued to the Replacement Bank by Borrower, in exchange for the return of the Affected Bank’s Ratable Loan Note. The obligations evidenced by such substitute note shall constitute “Obligations” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the Replacement Bank is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof, it shall, prior to the first date on which interest or fees are payable hereunder for its account, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent a certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes in accordance with Section 10.13. Each Replacement Bank shall be deemed to have made the representations contained in, and shall be bound by the provisions of, Section 10.13.  After any assignment as provided in this paragraph, an Affected Bank shall remain entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.06, 10.13 and 12.03 in respect of the period prior to such assignment.

Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Banks shall execute such modifications to the Loan Documents as shall be reasonably required in connection with and to effectuate the foregoing.

SECTION 3.08. Obligation of Banks to Mitigate.  Each Bank agrees that, as promptly as practicable after such Bank has actual knowledge of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Bank to become an Affected Bank or that would entitle such Bank to receive payments under Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.03, 3.06 or 10.13, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts at the cost and expense of the Borrower to (i) make, issue, fund, or maintain the Loan Commitment of such Bank or the affected Loans of such Bank through another lending office of such Bank, or (ii) assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if as a result thereof the circumstances that would cause such Bank to be an Affected Bank would cease to exist or the additional amounts that would otherwise be required to be paid to such Bank pursuant to Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.03, 3.06 or 10.13 would be reduced and if, as reasonably determined by such Bank in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding, or maintaining of such Loan Commitment or Loans through such other lending office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Loan Commitment or Loans or would not be otherwise disadvantageous to the interests of such Bank.

SECTION 9.02. Remedies.  If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Administrative Agent shall, upon request of the Required Banks, by notice to Borrower, (1) terminate the Loan Commitments and the obligation of the Fronting Banks to issue Letters of Credit, whereupon the Loan Commitments and such obligations to issue Letters of Credit shall terminate and the Banks and Fronting Banks shall have no further obligation to extend credit hereunder; and/or (2) declare the unpaid balance of the Loans, all interest thereon, and all other Obligations payable under this Agreement and the other Loans Documents, together with an amount equal to the amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit to be held by the Administrative Agent as provided in Section 2.16(i), to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon such balance, all such interest, all such Obligations due under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and such amount to be held in respect of the outstanding Letters of Credit shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest, or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower; and/or (3) exercise any remedies provided in any of the Loan Documents or by law; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in Section 9.01(5), the Loan Commitments and the obligation of the Fronting Banks to issue Letters of Credit shall automatically terminate (and the Banks and Fronting Banks shall have no further obligation to extend credit hereunder) and the unpaid balance of the Loans, all interest thereon, all other Obligations payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and an amount equal to the amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit to be held by the Administrative Agent as provided in Section 2.16(i) shall automatically be and become forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest, or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower.  Not in limitation of the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Required Banks may direct the Administrative Agent to, and the Administrative Agent if so directed shall, exercise any and all of its rights under any and all of the other Loan Documents and any and all other rights and remedies available under any applicable Law.

SECTION 9.03. Allocation of Proceeds.  If an Event of Default exists, all payments received by the Administrative Agent (or any Bank as a result of its exercise of remedies permitted under Section 12.07) under any of the Loan Documents in respect of any Obligations shall be applied in the following order and priority:

(a)                                 to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts, including attorney fees then due and payable in accordance with the Loan Documents, payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, each Fronting Bank in its capacity as such and the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such, ratably among the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks and Swingline Lender in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (a) payable to them;

(b)                                 to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and interest) then due and payable to the Banks in accordance with the Loan Documents, including reasonable attorney fees, ratably among the Banks in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (b) payable to them;

(c)                                  to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Swingline Loans;

68

(d)                                 to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, ratably among the Banks and the Fronting Banks in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (d) payable to them;

(g)                                  the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to Borrower or as otherwise required by applicable Law.

SECTION 9.04. Performance by Administrative Agent.  If Borrower or any other Loan Party shall fail to perform any covenant, duty or agreement contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent may, after notice to Borrower, perform or attempt to perform such covenant, duty or agreement on behalf of Borrower or such other Loan Party after the expiration of any cure or grace periods set forth herein.  In such event, Borrower shall, at the request of the Administrative Agent, promptly pay any amount reasonably expended by the Administrative Agent in such performance or attempted performance to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon at the applicable Default Rate from the date of such expenditure until paid.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Bank shall have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for the performance of any obligation of Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

SECTION 9.05. Right Cumulative.

(a)                                 The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks and the Banks under this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any of them may otherwise have under Applicable Law.  In exercising their respective rights and remedies the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks and the Banks may be selective and no failure or delay by any such Person in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of it, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude its other or further exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.

(b)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Borrower and the other Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Article X for the benefit of all the Banks and the Fronting Banks; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) a Fronting Bank or the Swingline Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as a Fronting Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be) hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, (iii) any Bank from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 12.07 (subject to the terms of Section 10.15), or (iv) any Bank from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and

69

provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (x) the Required Banks shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article X and (y) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 10.15, any Bank may, with the consent of the Required Banks, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Banks.

ARTICLE X.  ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT; RELATIONS AMONG BANKS

SECTION 10.01. Appointment, Powers and Immunities of Administrative Agent.  Each Bank hereby and each Fronting Bank irrevocably appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to act as its contractual representative hereunder and under any other Loan Document with such powers as are specifically delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Administrative Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and any other Loan Document or required by law, and shall not by reason of this Agreement be a fiduciary or trustee for any Bank except to the extent that Administrative Agent acts as an agent with respect to the receipt or payment of funds (nor shall Administrative Agent have any fiduciary duty to Borrower nor shall any Bank have any fiduciary duty to Borrower or to any other Bank).  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the terms “Agent”, “Administrative Agent”, “agent” and similar terms in the Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law.  Instead, use of such terms is merely a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.  Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to the Banks for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by Borrower or any officer, partner or official of Borrower or any other Person contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or in any certificate or other document or instrument referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the value, legality, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein, for the perfection or priority of any Lien securing the Obligations or for any failure by Borrower to perform any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder.  None of the Administrative Agent, its Affiliates or its or its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees, agents, trustees, administrators, managers, advisors or representatives (collectively, the “Related Parties”): (a) makes any warranty or representation to any Bank, any Fronting Bank or any other Person, or shall be responsible to any Bank, any Fronting Bank or any other Person for any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made by Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) shall have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of Borrower or other Persons, or to inspect the property, books or records of Borrower or any other Person; and (c) shall incur any liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties.  Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable or responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment. Borrower shall pay any fee agreed to by Borrower and Administrative Agent with respect to Administrative Agent’s services hereunder. Notwithstanding

70

anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Administrative Agent agrees with the Banks that Administrative Agent shall perform its obligations under this Agreement in good faith according to the same standard of care as that customarily exercised by it in administering its own revolving credit loans.

SECTION 10.02. Reliance by Administrative Agent.  Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telefax or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may deem and treat each Bank as the holder of the Loan made by it for all purposes hereof and shall not be required to deal with any Person who has acquired a participation in any Loan or participation from a Bank.  As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of any of the Obligations), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Banks (or all of the Banks if explicitly required under any other provision of this Agreement), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Banks and all holders of any of the Obligations; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Applicable Law.  Without limiting the foregoing, no Bank shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Required Banks, or where applicable, all the Banks.

SECTION 10.03. Defaults.  Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default unless Administrative Agent has received notice from a Bank or Borrower referring to this Agreement and specifying such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” In the event that Administrative Agent receives such a “Notice of Default”, Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Banks. Administrative Agent, following consultation with the Banks, shall (subject to Section 10.07 and Section 12.02) take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default which is continuing as shall be directed by the Required Banks; provided that, unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, Administrative Agent may 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 interest of the Banks; and provided further that Administrative Agent shall not send a notice of Default, Event of Default or acceleration to Borrower without the approval of the Required Banks. In no event shall Administrative Agent be required to take any such action which it determines to be contrary to law.  If any Bank (excluding the Bank which is also serving as the Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly send to the Administrative Agent such a “Notice of Default”; provided, a Bank’s failure to provide such a “notice of default” to the Administrative Agent shall not result in any liability of such Bank to any other party to any of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 10.04. Rights of Agent as a Bank.  With respect to its Loan Commitment and the Loan provided by it, each Person serving as an Agent in its capacity as a Bank hereunder shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as such Agent, and the term any “Bank” or “Banks” shall include each Person serving as an Agent in its capacity as a Bank. Each Person serving as an Agent and its Affiliates may (without having to account therefor to any Bank) accept deposits from, lend money to (on a secured or unsecured basis), and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with, Borrower (and any Affiliates of Borrower) as if it were not acting as such Agent.  The Fronting Banks and the Banks acknowledge that, pursuant to such business activities, an Agents or its Affiliates may receive information regarding

71

Borrower and its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that no Agent shall be under any obligation to provide such information to the Fronting Banks or the Banks.

SECTION 10.05. Indemnification of Agents.  Each Bank agrees to indemnify each Agent (to the extent not reimbursed under Section 12.03 or under the applicable provisions of any other Loan Document, but without limiting the obligations of Borrower under Section 12.03 or such provisions), for its Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, the costs and expenses which Borrower is obligated to pay under Section 12.03) or under the applicable provisions of any other Loan Document or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents or instruments; provided that no Bank shall be liable for (1) any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment; provided, further, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Banks (or all of the Banks, if expressly required hereunder) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section, (2) any loss with respect to the Loan of any Bank serving as an Agent or (3) any loss suffered by such Agent in connection with a swap or other interest rate hedging arrangement entered into with Borrower.

SECTION 10.06. Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Banks.  Each of the Banks and the Fronting Banks expressly acknowledges and agrees that no Agent nor any of its respective Related Parties has made any representations or warranties to such Fronting Bank or such Bank and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of General Partner, Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate, shall be deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by any Agent to a Fronting Bank or any Bank.  Each of the Banks and the Fronting Banks acknowledges that it has made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any other Bank or counsel to the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective Related Parties, and based on the financial statements of General Partner, Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of General Partner, Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate.  Each of the Banks and the Fronting Banks also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any other Bank or counsel to the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Related Parties, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents.  No Agent shall be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by Borrower or any other Loan Party of the Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or make any other investigation of, Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary.  Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Banks and the Fronting Banks by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Bank or Fronting Bank with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of General Partner, Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties.  Each of the Banks and the Fronting Banks acknowledges that the Administrative Agent’s

72

legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to the Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to any Bank or Fronting Bank.

SECTION 10.07. Failure of Administrative Agent to Act.  Except for action expressly required of Administrative Agent hereunder, Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder unless it shall have received further assurances (which may include cash collateral) of the indemnification obligations of the Banks under Section 10.05 in respect of any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

SECTION 10.08. Resignation or Removal of Administrative Agent.  If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Banks may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Banks) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.  The Administrative Agent may resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Banks and the Borrower.  Upon any such resignation, the Required Banks shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment shall, provided no Default under Section 9.01(1) or Section 9.01(5) or Event of Default exists, be subject to the Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that the Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Bank and any of its Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent).  If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the current Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the current Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Banks and the Fronting Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Bank, if any Bank shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be an Eligible Assignee; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Banks that no Bank has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice.  As of the Removal Effective Date or the effectiveness of such resignation, as applicable, (1) the Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made to each Bank and the Fronting Banks directly, until such time as a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed as provided for above in this Section; provided, further that such Banks and the Fronting Banks so acting directly shall be and be deemed to be protected by all indemnities and other provisions herein for the benefit and protection of the Administrative Agent as if each such Bank or Fronting Bank were itself the Administrative Agent.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the current Administrative Agent, and the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents.  Any resignation by or removal of an Administrative Agent shall also constitute the resignation or removal as a Fronting Bank and as the Swingline Bank by the Bank then acting as Administrative Agent (the “Resigning Bank”).  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder (i) the Resigning Bank shall be discharged from all duties and obligations of a Fronting Bank and the Swingline Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) the successor Fronting Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for all Letters of Credit issued by the Resigning Bank as Fronting Bank outstanding at the time of such succession (which letters of credit issued in substitutions shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder) or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Resigning Bank to effectively

73

assume the obligations of the Resigning Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.  After any Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 10.09. Amendments Concerning Agency Function.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Agent shall be bound by any waiver, amendment, supplement or modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document which affects its duties, rights, and/or function hereunder or thereunder unless it shall have given its prior written consent thereto.

SECTION 10.10. Liability of Administrative Agent.  Administrative Agent shall not have any liabilities or responsibilities to Borrower on account of the failure of any Bank or Fronting Bank to perform its obligations hereunder or to any Bank or Fronting Bank on account of the failure of Borrower or any other Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

SECTION 10.11. Transfer of Agency Function.  Without the consent of Borrower, any Fronting Bank or any Bank, Administrative Agent may at any time or from time to time transfer its functions as Administrative Agent hereunder to any of its offices wherever located in the United States, provided that Administrative Agent shall promptly notify in writing Borrower, the Fronting Banks and the Banks thereof.

SECTION 10.12. Non-Receipt of Funds by Administrative Agent.  Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank or Borrower (either one as appropriate being the “Payor”) prior to the date on which such Bank is to make payment hereunder to Administrative Agent of the proceeds of a Loan or Borrower is to make payment to Administrative Agent, as the case may be (either such payment being a “Required Payment”), which notice shall be effective upon receipt, that the Payor will not make the Required Payment in full to Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may assume that the Required Payment has been made in full to Administrative Agent on such date, and Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, make the amount thereof available to the intended recipient on such date. If and to the extent the Payor shall not have in fact so made the Required Payment in full to Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount made available to it together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount was so made available by Administrative Agent until the date Administrative Agent recovers such amount, at the customary rate set by Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among Banks for three (3) Banking Days and thereafter at the Base Rate.

SECTION 10.13. Withholding Taxes.

(a)                                 Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 10.13) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

74

(b)                                 Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.

(c)                                  Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 10.13, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d)                                 Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Recipient (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e)                                  Indemnification by the Banks. Each Bank shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Bank (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Bank’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.04(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Bank, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Bank by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Bank under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to such Bank from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f)                                   Status of Banks. (i) Any Bank that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Bank, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Bank is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 10.13(f)(ii)(A),(B) and (D) below) shall not be required if in the applicable Bank’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Bank to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Bank.

75

(ii)                                  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(A)                               any Bank that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Bank is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;

(B)                               any Foreign Bank shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1)                                 in the case of a Foreign Bank claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or Form W8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2)                                 in the case of a Foreign Bank claiming that its extension of credit will generate U.S. effectively connected income, executed copies of IRS Form W8ECI;

(3)                                 in the case of a Foreign Bank claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of EXHIBIT J-1 to the effect that such Foreign Bank is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E; or

(4)                                 to the extent a Foreign Bank is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of EXHIBIT J-2 or EXHIBIT J-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Bank is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Bank are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Bank may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of EXHIBIT J-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

76

(C)                               any Foreign Bank shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. Federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D)                               if a payment made to a Bank under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Bank were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Bank 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 (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Bank has complied with such Bank’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

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

(g)                                  Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 10.13 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 10.13), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 10.13 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place such indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to, or to apply for or seek a refund of any Taxes on behalf of, any indemnifying party or any other Person.

77

(h)                                 Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 10.13 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Bank, the termination of the Loan Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(i)                                     Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 10.13, the term “Bank” (as used in this Section 10.13 and the defined terms used therein) includes any Fronting Bank or Designated Lender and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

SECTION 10.14. Pro Rata Treatment.  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) each borrowing of Ratable Loans from the Banks under Sections 2.01(b), 2.03(b)(3) and 2.16(h) shall be made from the Banks, each payment of the fees under Sections 2.08, 2.16(g)(i) and 2.17 shall be made for the account of the Banks, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Loan Commitments under Section 2.15(a) shall be applied to the respective Loan Commitments of the Banks, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Loan Commitments; (b) each payment or prepayment of principal of Ratable Loans shall be made for the account of the Banks pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Ratable Loans held by them, provided that, subject to Section 12.19, if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of any Ratable Loans the outstanding principal amount of the Ratable Loans shall not be held by the Banks in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares in effect at the time such Ratable Loans were made, then such payment shall be applied to the Ratable Loans in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Ratable Loans being held by the Banks in accordance with such respective Pro Rata Shares; (c) each payment of interest on Ratable Loans shall be made for the account of the Banks pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Ratable Loans then due and payable to the respective Bank; (d) the Conversion and Continuation of Ratable Loans (other than Conversions provided for by Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 and 3.04) shall be made pro rata among the Banks according to the amounts of their respective Ratable Loans; (e) the Banks’ participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Swingline Loans under Section 2.03(b)(4) shall be in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares; and (f) the Banks’ participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Letters of Credit under Section 2.16(h) shall be in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares.

SECTION 10.15. Sharing of Payments Among Banks.  If a Bank shall obtain payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan made by it to Borrower under this Agreement or shall obtain payment on any other Obligation owing by Borrower or any other Loan Party through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar right or otherwise or through voluntary prepayments directly to a Bank or other payments made by or on behalf of Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Bank not in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such payment should be distributed to the Banks in accordance with Section 9.03 or Section 10.14, as applicable, such Bank shall promptly purchase from the other Banks participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Bank, direct interests in) the Loans made by the other Banks or other Obligations owed to such other Banks in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Banks shall share the benefit of such payment (net of any reasonable expenses which may actually be incurred by such Bank in obtaining or preserving such benefit) in accordance with the requirements of Section 9.03 or Section 10.14, as applicable.  To such end, all the Banks shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored.  Borrower agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation (or direct interest) in the Loans or other Obligations owed to such other Banks may exercise all rights of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were a direct holder of Loans in the amount of such participation.  Nothing contained herein shall require any Bank to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Bank to exercise and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligations of Borrower.

78

SECTION 10.16. Possession of Documents.  Each Bank shall keep possession of its own Ratable Loan Note.

SECTION 10.17. Syndication Agents and Documentation Agents.  The Banks serving as Syndication Agents or Documentation Agents shall have no duties or obligations in such capacities.

ARTICLE XI.  NATURE OF OBLIGATIONS

SECTION 11.01. Absolute and Unconditional Obligations.  Borrower acknowledges and agrees that its obligations and liabilities under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (1) any lack of validity or enforceability of any of the Obligations, any Loan Documents, or any agreement or instrument relating thereto; (2) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term in respect of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any Loan Documents or any other documents or instruments executed in connection with or related to the Obligations; (3) any exchange or release of any collateral, if any, or of any other Person from all or any of the Obligations; or (4) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Borrower or any other Person in respect of the Obligations.

The obligations and liabilities of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by Administrative Agent, any Bank or any other Person at any time of any right or remedy against Borrower, any other Loan Party, General Partner or any other Person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Obligations or against any collateral or security or guarantee therefor or right of setoff with respect thereto.

SECTION 11.02. Non-Recourse to Principals and the General Partner.  This Agreement and the obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are fully recourse to Borrower and the other Loan Parties.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in any of the other Loan Documents, or in any other instruments, certificates, documents or agreements executed in connection with the Loans (all of the foregoing, for purposes of this Section, hereinafter referred to, individually and collectively, as the “Relevant Documents”), and notwithstanding any applicable law that would make the General Partner liable for the debts or obligations of the Borrower, including as a general partner, no recourse under or upon any Obligation, representation, warranty, promise or other matter whatsoever shall be had against any of the Principals or the General Partner, and each Bank expressly waives and releases, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns, all right to assert any liability whatsoever under or with respect to the Relevant Documents against, or to satisfy any claim or obligation arising thereunder against, any of the Principals or the General Partner or out of any assets of the Principals or the General Partner, provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall be deemed to (1) release Borrower from any liability pursuant to, or from any of its obligations under, the Relevant Documents, or from liability for its fraudulent actions or fraudulent omissions; (2) release any Principals or the General Partner from personal liability arising outside of the terms of this Agreement for its, his or her own fraudulent actions, fraudulent omissions, misappropriation of funds, rents or insurance proceeds, gross negligence or willful misconduct; (3) constitute a waiver of any obligation evidenced or secured by, or contained in, the Relevant Documents or affect in any way the validity or enforceability of the Relevant Documents; or (4) limit the right of Administrative Agent and/or the Banks to proceed against or realize upon any collateral hereafter given for the Loans and Letters of Credit or any and all of the assets of Borrower (notwithstanding the fact that the Principals and the General Partner have an ownership interest in Borrower and, thereby, an interest in the assets of Borrower) or to name Borrower (or, to the

79

extent that the same are required by applicable law or are determined by a court to be necessary parties in connection with an action or suit against Borrower or any collateral hereafter given for the Loans, the General Partner) as a party defendant in, and to enforce against any collateral hereafter given for the Loans and/or assets of Borrower any judgment obtained by Administrative Agent and/or the Banks with respect to, any action or suit under the Relevant Documents so long as no judgment shall be taken (except to the extent taking a judgment is required by applicable law or determined by a court to be necessary to preserve Administrative Agent’s and/or Banks’ rights against any collateral hereafter given for the Loans or Borrower, but not otherwise) or shall be enforced against any of the Principals or the General Partner or their assets.

ARTICLE XII.  MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 12.01. Binding Effect of Request for Advance.  Borrower agrees that, by its acceptance of any advance of proceeds of the Loans under this Agreement or the issuance of any Letter of Credit, it shall be bound in all respects by the request for advance or Letter of Credit submitted on its behalf in connection therewith with the same force and effect as if Borrower had itself executed and submitted the request for advance or Letter of Credit and whether or not the request for advance is executed and/or submitted by an authorized person.

SECTION 12.02. Amendments and Waivers.  No amendment, forbearance or material waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document nor consent to any material departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Banks and, solely for purposes of its acknowledgment thereof, Administrative Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given, provided, however, that no amendment, waiver, consent or forbearance shall: (1) forgive or reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees due hereunder or any other amount due hereunder or under any other Loan Document, in each case, payable to a Bank, without the written consent of such Bank; provided that only the written consent of the Required Banks shall be required for the waiver of interest payable at the Default Rate, retraction of the imposition of interest at the Default Rate and amendment of the definition of “Default Rate”; (2) postpone or extend any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees or other amounts due hereunder or under any other Loan Document, in each case, payable to a Bank, without the written consent of such Bank; (3) change the definition of “Pro Rata Share” or “Required Banks” without the written consent of all of the Banks; (4) amend the first proviso of this Section 12.02 or any other provision requiring the consent of all the Banks without the written consent of all of the Banks; (5) waive any default in payment under paragraph (1) of Section 9.01 without the written consent of all Banks (or, solely with respect to clause (iii) of such paragraph (1), without the written consent the each Bank entitled to receive the payment in respect of which such default has occurred), or any default under paragraph (5) of Section 9.01 with respect to Borrower, any other Loan Party or General Partner without the written consent of all of the Banks; (6) increase, decrease, extend or reinstate any Loan Commitment of any Bank (except changes in Loan Commitments pursuant to Section 2.15) without the written consent of such Bank; (7) release any guaranty (other than a guaranty given pursuant to Section 12.20 or Section 12.21 or in the case of the Guaranty, as provided in Section 6.12) without the written consent of all of the Banks; (8) permit the expiration date of any Letter of Credit to be later than the first anniversary of the Maturity Date without the written consent of all of the Banks; (9) permit the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document (except in a transaction permitted pursuant to Section 7.01) without the written consent of all of the Banks or (10) modify Section 9.03 or Section 10.14 without the written consent of each of the Banks affected thereby; and provided further, that (A) an amendment, waiver or consent relating to the time specified for payment of principal, interest and fees with respect to Bid Rate Loans shall only be binding if in writing and signed by the affected Bank or Designated Lender, (B) no amendment, waiver or consent unless in writing and signed

80

by the Administrative Agent, in addition to the Banks required hereinabove to take such action, shall affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, (C) any amendment, waiver or consent relating to Section 2.03 or the obligations of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall, in addition to the Banks required hereinabove to take such action, require the written consent of the Swingline Lender and (D) any amendment, waiver or consent relating to Section 2.16 or the obligations of a Fronting Bank under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall, in addition to the Banks required hereinabove to take such action, require the written consent of such Fronting Bank.  Any advance of proceeds of the Loans made prior to or without the fulfillment by Borrower of all of the conditions precedent thereto, whether or not known to Administrative Agent and the Banks, shall not constitute a waiver of the requirement that all conditions, including the non-performed conditions, shall be required with respect to all future advances. No failure on the part of Administrative Agent or any Bank to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof or preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Banks or each affected Bank may be effected with the consent of the applicable Banks other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Loan Commitment of a Defaulting Lender may not be increased, reinstated or extended without the written consent of such Defaulting Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Banks or each affected Bank that by its terms affects a Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Banks shall require the written consent of such Defaulting Lender.  No course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Bank in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, if the Administrative Agent and Borrower have jointly identified an ambiguity, omission, mistake or defect in any provision of this Agreement or an inconsistency between provisions of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent and Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision or provisions to cure such ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency so long as to do so would not adversely affect the interests of the Banks and the Fronting Banks.  Any such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any of other party to this Agreement.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks and the Fronting Banks of any such amendment.

All communications from Administrative Agent to the Banks requesting the Banks’ determination, consent, approval or disapproval (i) shall be given in the form of a written notice to each Bank and (ii) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or thing as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested.  Each Bank shall reply promptly, but in any event within fifteen (15) Banking Days (or five (5) Banking Days with respect to any decision to accelerate or stop acceleration of the Loan) after receipt of the request therefor by Administrative Agent (the “Bank Reply Period”). Unless a Bank shall give written notice to Administrative Agent that it objects to the requested determination, approval, consent or disapproval within the Bank Reply Period, such Bank shall be deemed to have approved or consented to such requested determination, approval, consent or disapproval; provided that this sentence shall not apply to any determination, consent, approval or disapproval regarding any matter requiring the consent of all Banks or all affected Banks under the first proviso of this Section.

SECTION 12.03. Expenses; Indemnification.  Borrower agrees to reimburse Administrative Agent on demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses, and charges (including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and charges of engineers, appraisers and external legal counsel) incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the Loans and to reimburse each of the Banks for reasonable out-of-pocket legal costs, expenses and charges incurred by each of the Banks in connection with the performance or enforcement of this Agreement, the Notes, or any other Loan Documents; provided,

81

however, that (i) Borrower is not responsible for costs, expenses and charges incurred by the Bank Parties in connection with the administration or syndication of the Loans (other than any administration fee payable to Administrative Agent) and (ii) any such legal costs, expenses and charges shall be limited to (A) one external counsel for Administrative Agent, (B) one external counsel for all other Banks (and, solely in the case of a conflict of interest, additional conflicts counsel), (C) and such local or foreign counsel of Administrative Agent as may be necessary under the circumstances.  Borrower agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent, Lead Arrangers, each Fronting Bank, each Bank, each of their respective Affiliates and the respective directors, officers, employees and agents of the foregoing (each an “Indemnified Party”) from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by any of them arising out of or by reason of (w) any claims by brokers due to acts or omissions by Borrower, (x) any investigation or litigation or other proceedings (including any threatened investigation or litigation or other proceedings) relating to any actual or proposed use by Borrower of the proceeds of the Loans or the use of Letters of Credit, including without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation or litigation or other proceedings, (y) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any Environmental Claim related in any way to Borrower or any Subsidiary or (z) third party claims or actions against any Indemnified Party relating to or arising from this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the transactions contemplated pursuant to this Agreement or and the Loan Documents, in the case of each of clauses (w) through (z), regardless of whether an Indemnified Party is only a third party thereto; provided, however, that such indemnification shall exclude any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the person to be indemnified as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive the repayment of all amounts due under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents and the termination of the Loan Commitments.  No Indemnified Party shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

SECTION 12.04. Assignment; Participation.

(a)                                 Successors and Assigns Generally.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, provided that the Borrower may not, except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01, assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Bank, and no Bank may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of the immediately following subsection (b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of the immediately following subsection (d) or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of the immediately following subsection (e) (and, subject to the last sentence of the immediately following subsection (b), any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Except as otherwise provided under Section 12.03, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in the immediately following subsection (d) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors of each of the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks and the Banks) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

82

(b)                                 Assignments by Banks.  Any Bank may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Loan Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i)                                     Minimum Amounts.

(A)                               in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of an assigning Bank’s Loan Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it, or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in the immediately following clause (B) in the aggregate, or in the case of an assignment to a Bank, an Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B)                               in any case not described in the immediately preceding subsection (A), the aggregate amount of the Loan Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Loan Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Ratable Loans of the assigning Bank subject to each such assignment (in each case, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default shall exist, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that if, after giving effect to such assignment, the amount of the Loan Commitment held by such assigning Bank or the outstanding principal balance of the Ratable Loans of such assigning Bank, as applicable, would be less than $5,000,000, then such assigning Bank shall assign the entire amount of its Loan Commitment and the Ratable Loans at the time owing to it.

(ii)                                  Proportionate Amounts.  Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Loan Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to rights in respect of a Bid Rate Loan.

(iii)                               Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (i)(B) of this subsection (b) and, in addition:

(A)                               the consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default shall exist at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to (1) a Bank or (2) an Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund which Affiliate or Approved Fund is a Qualified Institution; provided that (I) the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 5 Banking Days after having received notice thereof and (II) Borrower can withhold such consent if such assignment shall subject Borrower to any greater obligations under Sections 3.01 or 3.06;

(B)                               the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of a Loan Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not already a Bank with a Loan

83

Commitment, an Affiliate of such a Bank or an Approved Fund with respect to such a Bank; and

(C)                               the consent of each Fronting Bank and the Swingline Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of a Loan Commitment.

(iv)                              Assignment and Acceptance; Notes.  The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee of $4,500 for each assignment (which fee the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive), and the assignee, if it is not a Bank, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.  If requested by the transferor Bank or the assignee, upon the consummation of any assignment, the transferor Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes are issued to the assignee and such transferor Bank, as appropriate.

(v)                                 No Assignment to Certain Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or to any Person who, upon becoming a Bank hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).

(vi)                              No Assignment to Natural Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

(vii)                           Certain Additional Payments.  In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks, the Swingline Bank and each other Bank hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the immediately following subsection (c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement, and the assigning Bank thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement covering all of the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.05 and 12.03 and the other provisions of this Agreement and the

84

other Loan Documents with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Bank having been a Defaulting Lender.  Any assignment or transfer by a Bank of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Bank of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with the immediately following subsection (d).

(c)                                  Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Principal Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks, and the Loan Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Banks shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Bank, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d)                                 Participations.  Any Bank may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Bank’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Loan Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Bank’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Bank shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks and the Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Bank sells such a participation shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Bank will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (w) increase such Bank’s Loan Commitment, (x) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal on the Loans or portions thereof owing to such Bank, (y) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon or (z) release any Guarantor from its Obligations under the Guaranty except as contemplated by Section 6.12, in each case, as applicable to that portion of such Bank’s rights and/or obligations that are subject to the participation.  The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01 and 3.06 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein) to the same extent as if it were a Bank and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 3.07 as if it were an assignee under subsection (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.01 or 3.06, with respect to any participation, than its participating Bank would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Regulatory Change that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.  Each Bank that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.07 with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.07 as though it were a Bank; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 10.15 as though it were a Bank.  Each Bank that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Bank shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the

85

identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Bank shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e)                                  Certain Pledges.  Any Bank may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Bank, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank having jurisdiction over such Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Bank from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Bank as a party hereto.

(f)                                   No Registration.  Each Bank agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, it will not make any assignment hereunder in any manner or under any circumstances that would require registration or qualification of, or filings in respect of, any Loan or Note under the Securities Act of 1933 or any other securities laws of the United States of America or of any other jurisdiction.

(g)                                  USA Patriot Act Notice; Compliance.  In order for the Administrative Agent to comply with “know your customer” and anti-money laundering laws, rules and regulations, including without limitation, the Patriot Act, prior to any Bank that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America becoming a party hereto, the Administrative Agent may request, and such Bank shall provide to the Administrative Agent, its name, address, tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be necessary for the Administrative Agent to comply with such laws, rules and regulations.

SECTION 12.05. Documentation Satisfactory.  All documentation required from or to be submitted on behalf of Borrower in connection with this Agreement and the documents relating hereto shall be subject to the prior approval of, and be satisfactory in form and substance to, Administrative Agent, its counsel and, where specifically provided herein, the Banks. In addition, the persons or parties responsible for the execution and delivery of, and signatories to, all of such documentation, shall be acceptable to, and subject to the approval of, Administrative Agent and its counsel and the Banks.

SECTION 12.07. Setoff.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to the extent permitted or not expressly prohibited by applicable Law, Borrower agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of setoff, bankers’ lien or counterclaim a Bank may otherwise have, each Bank shall be entitled, at its option, but subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Required Banks exercised in their sole discretion, to offset balances (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) held by it for the account of Borrower at any of such Bank’s offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, against any amount payable by Borrower to such Bank under this Agreement or such Bank’s Note, or any other Loan Document, which is not paid when due (regardless of whether such balances are then due to Borrower or General Partner), in which case it shall promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent thereof; provided that such Bank’s failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof. Payments by Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or counterclaim.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, if any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.19 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks and the Banks and (y) such Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

SECTION 12.13. Waivers.  To the extent permitted or not expressly prohibited by applicable law, in connection with the obligations and liabilities as aforesaid, Borrower hereby waives (1) notice of any actions taken by any Bank Party under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating hereto or thereto except to the extent otherwise provided herein; (2) all other notices, demands and protests, and all other formalities of every kind in connection with the enforcement of the Obligations, the omission of or delay in which, but for the provisions of this Section 12.13, might constitute grounds for relieving Borrower of its obligations hereunder; (3) any requirement that any Bank Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien on any collateral or exhaust any right or take any action against Borrower or any other Person or any collateral; (4) any right or claim of right to cause a marshalling of the assets of Borrower; and (5) all rights of subrogation or contribution, whether arising by contract or operation of law (including, without limitation, any such right arising under the Bankruptcy Code) or otherwise by reason of payment by Borrower, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

SECTION 12.14. Jurisdiction; Immunities.  Borrower, Administrative Agent, each Fronting Bank and each Bank hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or United States Federal court sitting in New York City, Borough of Manhattan over any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document. Borrower, Administrative Agent, each Fronting Bank and each Bank irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or United States Federal court.  Borrower, Administrative Agent, each Fronting Bank and each Bank irrevocably consent to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies of such process to Borrower, Administrative Agent, each Fronting Bank or each Bank, as the case may be, at the addresses specified herein. Borrower, Administrative Agent, each Fronting Bank and each Bank agree that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of Borrower, Administrative Agent or any Bank to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

90

To the extent that Borrower, Administrative Agent, a Fronting Bank or any Bank have or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether from service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, Borrower, Administrative Agent, each Fronting Banks and each Bank hereby irrevocably waive such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and any other Loan Document.

BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, EACH FRONTING BANK AND EACH BANK WAIVE ANY RIGHT EACH SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO JURY TRIAL IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR THE LOAN.  IN ADDITION, BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE BANKS WITH RESPECT TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, ANY RIGHT BORROWER MAY HAVE (1) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED OR NOT EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TO INTERPOSE ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN (OTHER THAN A COUNTERCLAIM THAT IF NOT BROUGHT IN THE SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE BANKS COULD NOT BE BROUGHT IN A SEPARATE SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING OR WOULD BE SUBJECT TO DISMISSAL OR SIMILAR DISPOSITION FOR FAILURE TO HAVE BEEN ASSERTED IN SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE BANKS) OR (2) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED OR NOT EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TO HAVE THE SAME CONSOLIDATED WITH ANY OTHER OR SEPARATE SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING.  NOTHING HEREIN CONTAINED SHALL PREVENT OR PROHIBIT BORROWER FROM INSTITUTING OR MAINTAINING A SEPARATE ACTION AGAINST ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE FRONTING BANKS OR THE BANKS WITH RESPECT TO ANY ASSERTED CLAIM.

To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, Borrower shall not assert, and Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any Bank, any Fronting Bank or any Agent, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or other extension of credit hereunder or the use of the proceeds thereof.

SECTION 12.15. Designated Lender.  Any Bank (other than an Affected Bank or a Bank which is such solely because it is a Designated Lender) (each, a “Designating Lender”) may at any time designate one (1) Designated Lender to fund Bid Rate Loans on behalf of such Designating Lender subject to the terms of this Section and the provisions in Section 12.04 shall not apply to such designation. No Bank may designate more than one (1) Designated Lender. The parties to each such designation shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent for its acceptance a Designation Agreement. Upon such receipt of an appropriately completed Designation Agreement executed by a Designating Lender and a designee representing that it is a Designated Lender, Administrative Agent will accept such Designation Agreement and give prompt notice thereof to Borrower, whereupon, (i) from and after the “Effective Date” specified in the Designation Agreement, the Designated Lender shall become a party to this Agreement with a right to make Bid Rate Loans on behalf of its Designating Lender pursuant to Section 2.02 after Borrower has accepted the Bid Rate Quote of the Designating Lender and (ii) the Designated Lender shall not be required to make payments with respect to any obligations in this Agreement except to the extent of excess cash flow of such Designated Lender which is not otherwise required to repay obligations of such Designated Lender which are then due and payable; provided, however, that regardless of such designation and assumption by the Designated Lender, the Designating Lender shall be and remain obligated to Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Banks for each and

91

every of the obligations of the Designating Lender and its related Designated Lender with respect to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any indemnification obligations under Section 10.05. Each Designating Lender shall serve as the administrative agent of its Designated Lender and shall on behalf of, and to the exclusion of, the Designated Lender (i) receive any and all payments made for the benefit of the Designated Lender and (ii) give and receive all communications and notices and take all actions hereunder, including, without limitation, votes, approvals, waivers and consents under or relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any such notice, communication, vote, approval, waiver or consent shall be signed by the Designating Lender as administrative agent for the Designated Lender and shall not be signed by the Designated Lender on its own behalf, but shall be binding on the Designated Lender to the same extent as if actually signed by the Designated Lender. Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Banks may rely thereon without any requirement that the Designated Lender sign or acknowledge the same. No Designated Lender may assign or transfer all or any portion of its interest hereunder or under any other Loan Document, other than assignments to the Designating Lender which originally designated such Designated Lender.

SECTION 12.16. No Bankruptcy Proceedings.  Each of Borrower, the Banks and Administrative Agent hereby agrees that it will not institute against any Designated Lender or join any other Person in instituting against any Designated Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law, for 366 days after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Designated Lender.

SECTION 12.17. Intentionally Omitted.

SECTION 12.18. USA Patriot Act.  Each Bank hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, the other Loan Parties and the General Partner, which information includes the name and address of such Persons and other information that will allow such Bank to identify such Persons in accordance with the Act.  The Borrower shall provide such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Bank in order to assist the Administrative Agent and the Banks in maintaining compliance with applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the Patriot Act.

SECTION 12.19. Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Bank becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Bank is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

(a)                                 Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Banks” and in Section 12.02.

(b)                                 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 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.07 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Fronting Banks or the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Fronting Banks’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with subsection (e) below; fourth, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists other than a Default or Event of Default that will be cured by the application of such funds in accordance with this paragraph), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting

92

Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Fronting Banks’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with subsection (e) below; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Banks, the Fronting Banks or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Bank, a Fronting Bank or the Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, 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 or amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender under Section 2.16 in respect of Letters of Credit (such amounts “L/C Disbursements”), 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, and L/C Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swingline Loans are held by the Banks in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (determined without giving effect to the immediately following subsection (d)).  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 or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this subsection shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Bank irrevocably consents hereto.

(c)                                  Certain Fees.

(i)                                     No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee payable under Section 2.08 for any period during which that Bank is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(ii)                                  Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive the fee payable under Section 2.16(g)(i) for any period during which that Bank is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to the immediately following subsection (e).

(iii)                               With respect to any fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (ii), Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Liabilities that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to the immediately following subsection (d), (y) pay to the applicable Fronting Bank the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Fronting Bank’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(d)                                 Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (determined without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Loan Commitment) but only to the extent that such

93

reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Loan Commitment.  No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Bank having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(e)                                  Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Loans.

(i)                                     If the reallocation described in the immediately preceding subsection (d) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Fronting Banks’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in this subsection.

(ii)                                  At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within 1 Banking Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or a Fronting Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Fronting Banks’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to the immediately preceding subsection (d) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the aggregate Fronting Exposure of the Fronting Banks with respect to Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at such time.

(iii)                               Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Fronting Banks, and agree to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Liabilities, to be applied pursuant to the immediately following clause (iv).  If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Fronting Banks as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the aggregate Fronting Exposure of the Fronting Banks with respect to Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at such time, Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(iv)                              Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Liabilities (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(v)                                 Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the Fronting Banks’ Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this subsection following (x) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Bank), or (y) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the Fronting Banks that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to the immediately preceding subsection (b), the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Fronting Banks may (but shall not be obligated to) agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by Borrower, such

94

Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

(f)                                   Defaulting Lender Cure.  If Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Fronting Banks agree in writing that a Bank 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 (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Bank will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Ratable Loans of the other Banks or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Ratable Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held by the Banks in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (determined without giving effect to the immediately preceding subsection (d)), whereupon such Bank will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Bank 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 Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Bank’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(g)                                  New Swingline Loans/Letters of Credit.  So long as any Bank is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan and (ii) a Fronting Bank shall not be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

(h)                                 Purchase of Defaulting Lender’s Commitment.  During any period that a Bank is a Defaulting Lender, Borrower may, by Borrower giving written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent, such Defaulting Lender and the other Banks, demand that such Defaulting Lender assign its Loan Commitment and Loans to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.04.  No party hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding an Eligible Assignee.  In addition, any Bank which is not a Defaulting Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, in its sole discretion, acquire the face amount of all or a portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Loan Commitment and Loans via an assignment subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.04.  In connection with any such assignment, such Defaulting Lender shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to effect such assignment, including an appropriate Assignment and Assumption Agreement and, notwithstanding Section 12.04, shall pay to the Administrative Agent an assignment fee in the amount of $7,500.  The exercise by Borrower of its rights under this Section shall be at Borrower’s sole cost and expense and at no cost or expense to the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks or the Banks provided that the foregoing shall not constitute a waiver or release of any claim of Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Fronting Bank or any Bank against any Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 12.20. Use for Mortgages.  From time to time, on not less than five (5) Banking Days’ notice, the Borrower may request proceeds of the Loans be used to refinance or acquire properties secured by certain secured mortgage Indebtedness of the Borrower and/or its Subsidiaries, in which event, a portion of the Loans equal to the amount of the advances made hereunder in connection with such refinancing or acquisition, at the Borrower’s election, may be secured by an amended and restated mortgage (in favor of Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Banks) on the property securing the mortgage Indebtedness to be so refinanced or acquired (a “Refinancing Mortgage”) and evidenced by a mortgage note executed by Borrower and/or one or more Subsidiaries (provided that if Borrower shall not execute such mortgage note, the Borrower shall execute a guaranty of such mortgage note), as more particularly set forth in Section 2.09. Any such Refinancing Mortgage and any other agreement,

95

certifications, opinions and other documents will be (i) in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and its counsel, (ii) consistent in all respects with the terms of this Agreement, (iii) subject to such customary due diligence as is reasonably required by the Administrative Agent and the Banks, and (iv) released or assigned by the Administrative Agent (a) at the request of the Borrower or (b) in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, or at the direction of the Required Banks, if (x) the Administrative Agent believes in good faith that holding such mortgage is a violation of applicable Law or could expose the Administrative Agent or any of the Banks to liability for failure to comply with applicable Law (regardless of whether the Borrower or any other Person is obligated to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Banks for such liability) or (y) as a matter of policy generally applicable to the customers of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent is no longer allowing advances under an otherwise unsecured credit facility to be secured by mortgages assigned to the Administrative Agent (it being understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent and the Banks shall not be required to give any representations or warranties with respect to any such release or assignment, including with respect to any aspects of the Indebtedness secured thereby, except that it is the holder thereof and authorized to execute and deliver the same). In addition, in connection with each Refinancing Mortgage, the Administrative Agent, at the request and expense of Borrower, will provide subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements and intercreditor and/or subordination agreements with respect to any other Indebtedness secured by the related mortgaged property, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Unless otherwise directed by Borrower, any prepayments made by the Borrower shall be applied first to any and all Loans outstanding that are not secured by a Refinancing Mortgage, and only to Loans secured by Refinancing Mortgages if there shall be no other Loans outstanding at the time.

SECTION 12.21. Bottom-Up Guaranties.  At Borrower’s request from time to time, Administrative Agent shall accept “bottom-up” guaranties of the Loans from limited partners in Borrower in such amounts and on such terms as Borrower shall request, provided that Administrative Agent shall have reasonably satisfied itself with respect to OFAC and similar restrictions in respect of any such proposed guarantor.  A Person shall not be considered to be a “Guarantor” or a “Loan Party” as a result of providing such a “bottom-up” guaranty.

SECTION 12.22. Confidentiality.  Each of the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks and the Banks agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any Governmental Authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under any Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower, (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section actually known by the Administrative Agent, such Fronting Bank or such Bank to be a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Fronting Bank or any Bank on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower, or (i) to the Administrative Agent’s, such Fronting Bank’s or such Bank’s independent auditors and other professional advisors (provided they shall be notified of the confidential nature of the information).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative

96

Agent, each Fronting Bank and each Bank may disclose any such confidential information, without notice to Borrower or any other Loan Party, to Governmental Authorities in connection with any regulatory examination of the Administrative Agent, such Fronting Bank or such Bank or in accordance with the regulatory compliance policy of the Administrative Agent, such Fronting Bank or such Bank.  For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that was available to the Administrative Agent, any Fronting Bank or any Bank on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower.  In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Banks may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Banks in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the Loan Commitments. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of 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 Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

SECTION 12.23. Construction.  The Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks, the Borrower and each Bank acknowledge that each of them has had the benefit of legal counsel of its own choice and has been afforded an opportunity to review this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with its legal counsel and that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks, the Borrower and each Bank.

SECTION 12.24. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.  In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers, and the Banks are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers, and the Banks, on the other hand, (B) the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) the Administrative Agent, each Lead Arranger and each Bank is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger nor any Bank has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the Banks and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger, nor any Bank has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower or its Affiliates. The Borrower hereby agrees that it will not assert any claims against the Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger or any Bank based on an alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.
