“10.24 Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs.

To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, of Hedging Obligations or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(a)          In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the

Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.  Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

(b)          As used in this Section 10.24, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

“Covered Entity” means any of the following:

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

“QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).”

Section 4.          Reaffirmation of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.  The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, including the guaranty of the Obligations, the grants of Liens on the Collateral to secure the Obligations, and the covenants and agreements contained therein, is hereby acknowledged and reaffirmed and shall continue in full force and effect.  Notwithstanding the terms of this Amendment and the effectiveness of the Amended Credit Agreement, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and all of the Collateral described therein do and shall continue to secure the payment of all Obligations of the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents, in each case, as amended by this Amendment.

Section 5.          Representations and Warranties.  In order to induce the New Term Loan Lender and the Cashless Roll Lenders to enter into this Amendment and to make Repriced Term

Loans, the Borrower and (as to subsections 5(a) and 5(b) below) each other Loan Party represents and warrants to the New Term Loan Lender and the Cashless Roll Lenders that as of the Seventh Amendment Effective Date:

(a)          the execution, delivery and performance by such Loan Party of this Amendment are within such Loan Party’s corporate or other organizational powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action of such Loan Party, and will not (i) violate any Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation of such Loan Party in any respect that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any of such Loan Party’s properties or revenues pursuant to any such Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation;

(b)          this Amendment constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable domestic or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law); and

(c)          after giving effect to this Amendment, all representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in the Existing Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Seventh Amendment Effective Date, except to the extent that any such representations and warranties expressly relate to a given date, in which case they were true and correct in all material respects as of such date.

Section 6.          Conditions to Effectiveness.  The agreements and amendments set forth in Sections 2 and 3 of this Amendment shall become effective on the date (the “Seventh Amendment Effective Date”) that each of the following conditions shall have been satisfied:

(a)          Counterparts.   The Administrative Agent shall have received (i) a counterpart of this Amendment executed by each of the Loan Parties, (ii) a counterpart of this Amendment executed by the New Term Loan Lender, (iii) a duly executed Consent from each Cashless Term Lender and (iv) if the Lenders described in clauses (ii) and (iii) above do not constitute Required Lenders immediately after the consummation of the Repricing Transactions and solely as a condition to the effectiveness of the Other Amendments, a counterpart of this Amendment executed by one or more Lenders that, together with the Lenders described in clauses (ii) and (iii) above, constitute Required Lenders;

(b)          Corporate Certificates and Authorizations.  The Administrative Agent shall have received customary secretary’s certificates related to organizational documents, resolutions and

officer incumbency, as well as good standing certificates (or similar document to the extent relevant in the applicable jurisdiction of organization), with respect to each Loan Party;

The Administrative Agent shall have received a written opinion of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, special counsel to the Loan Parties, addressed to the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, the New Term Loan Lender and the Cashless Roll Lenders, dated the Seventh Amendment Effective Date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice in writing to the Borrower of the occurrence of the Seventh Amendment Effective Date.  The making of the Repriced Term Loans by the New Term Loan Lender and Cashless Roll Lenders shall conclusively be deemed to constitute an acknowledgement by the Administrative Agent, the New Term Loan Lender and Cashless Roll Lenders, and an agreement of the parties hereto, that each of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6 hereof shall have been satisfied in accordance with its respective terms.

Section 7.          Expenses.  The Borrower shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Amendment and the other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, if any (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP, counsel for the Administrative Agent).

Section 8.          Cashless Rollover of Existing Term Loans. Each Cashless Term Lender agrees that, on the Seventh Amendment Effective Date, all (or such lesser amount corresponding to the amount of Repriced Term Loans as the Administrative Agent may allocate to such Lender) of its Existing Term Loans shall be exchanged (pursuant to subsection 3.4(h) of the Existing Credit Agreement) for Repriced Term Loans under the Amended Credit Agreement, and such Existing Term Loans so exchanged shall be deemed repaid in full on the Seventh Amendment Effective Date, including with respect to all accrued and unpaid interest, fees, expenses and other compensation owed to such Cashless Term Lender and due and payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Amendment and the Existing Credit Agreement.  Each Cashless Term Lender acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect not to allocate Repriced Term Loans to such Lender in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of its Existing Term Loans, in which case the difference between the principal amount of such Lender’s Existing Term Loans as of immediately prior to the Seventh Amendment Effective Date and the principal amount of Repriced Term Loans allocated to such Lender by the Administrative Agent, if any, will be repaid on, and subject to the occurrence of, the Seventh Amendment Effective Date.  Each Cashless Term Lender waives any right to receive any payments under subsection 3.12 of the Amended Credit Agreement as a result of the Repricing Transactions.

Section 9.          Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single instrument.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by facsimile or any other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

Section 10.          Applicable Law.  THIS AMENDMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ITS PRINCIPLES OR RULES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS TO THE EXTENT SUCH PRINCIPLES OR RULES ARE NOT MANDATORILY APPLICABLE BY STATUTE AND WOULD REQUIRE OR PERMIT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

Section 11.          Headings.  The headings of this Amendment are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

Section 12.          Effect of Amendment.

(a)          On and after the Seventh Amendment Effective Date, the rights and obligations of the parties to the Existing Credit Agreement shall be governed by the Amended Credit

Agreement, it being understood that those rights and obligations that are specified in the Existing Credit Agreement as surviving a termination of that agreement shall survive in accordance with their respective terms and without prejudice and remain in full force and effect.

(b)          Each Loan Party reaffirms its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is party and the validity, enforceability and perfection of the Liens granted by it pursuant to the Security Documents.  Each of the Loan Parties hereby consents to this Amendment and confirms that all obligations of such Loan Party under the Loan Documents to which such Loan Party is a party shall continue to apply to the Amended Credit Agreement.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the amendment of the Amended Credit Agreement pursuant to this Amendment and all other Loan Documents amended and/or executed and delivered in connection herewith shall not constitute a novation of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as in effect prior to the Seventh Amendment Effective Date.

(c)          This Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document and a Specified Refinancing Amendment for purposes of the Amended Credit Agreement.
