Upon the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default occurring pursuant to Section 8.01(a), Section 8.01(f) or Section 8.01(g), all Loans outstanding and such overdue amount, in the case of a failure to pay amounts when due, shall automatically bear interest (as well after as before judgment), at a rate per annum which is two percent (2%) above the rate which would otherwise be applicable to such Loan pursuant to whichever of the three preceding sentences shall apply (the “Post-Default Rate”) until paid in full. Upon the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default other than those listed in the previous sentence, all Loans outstanding shall bear interest at the Post-Default Rate upon the written election of the Majority Lenders. Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that interest payable on overdue principal shall be payable on demand.

(b)    Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Loan, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to continue such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing for an additional Interest Period (and elect Interest Periods therefor), all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall then and thereafter be considered a separate Borrowing. After giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than five Interest Periods in effect at any given time.

(c)    To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election (the “Interest Election Request”) in writing by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

(d)    Each written Interest Election Request shall identify the Borrower and specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.03:

(i)    the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii)    the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii)    whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an Alternate Base Rate Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing (if no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an Alternate Base Rate Borrowing); and

(iv)    if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

(e)    If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(f)    Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s obligation with respect to each resulting Borrowing.

(g)    If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be continued as an Alternate Base Rate Loan. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Majority Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as such Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be continued as a Eurodollar Loan, and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Loan shall be continued as an Alternate Base Rate Loan at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

Section 2.11    Computation of Interest and Fees.

(a)    All interest, as well as fees and other charges calculated on a per annum basis, shall be computed for the actual days elapsed, based on a year of 360 days; provided that in the case of interest on Loans computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate, interest will be determined on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year). The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of each determination of a LIBO Rate. Any change in the interest rate resulting from a change in the Alternate Base Rate shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change in the applicable rate shall become effective. The Administrative Agent shall notify the

Borrower and the Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in the Alternate Base Rate.

(b)    The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the computations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.11(a).

Section 2.12    Funding of Borrowings.

(a)    Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed Borrowing Date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by (x) in the case of Alternate Base Rate Loans, 2:00 p.m., New York City time and (y) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, 1:00 p.m., New York City time, in each case, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request.

(b)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.12(a) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then each such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the cost incurred by the Administrative Agent for making such Lender’s share of such Borrowing and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with customary banking industry practices on interbank compensation with reasonable evidence thereof, or (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Alternate Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(c)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding

the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the cost incurred by the Administrative Agent for making such distributed amount and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

Section 2.13    Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a)    Each Borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders, each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of the principal of and interest on the Tranche A Loans or the Tranche B Loans and on account of any fees hereunder and any reduction of the Tranche A Commitments or the Tranche B Commitments of the applicable Lenders hereunder shall be made pro rata according to the Tranche A Commitments or Tranche B Commitments (as applicable), except that payments or prepayments, and offsets against or reductions from the amount of payments and prepayments, in each case, specifically for the account of a particular Lender under the terms of Section 2.04, Section 2.14, Section 2.15, Section 2.16, Section 2.21, Section 10.03 or Section 10.13 shall be made for the account of such Lender. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower on account of principal, interest and fees shall be made in immediately available funds without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders at the Administrative Agent’s office as notified to the Borrower from time to time at least five (5) Business Days before any change in such office. On the date of this Agreement, the office of the Administrative Agent is located at Barclays Bank PLC, 745 7th Avenue, New York, NY 10019, Attention of Robert Walsh, Phone No.: (212) 526-6047, Email: ***@***. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received.

(b)    If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

(c)    Except as provided in Section 2.14, Section 2.15, Section 2.16, Section 2.21, Section 10.03, Section 10.13, and this Section 2.13, if any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Tranche A Loans or Tranche B Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Tranche A Loans or Tranche B Loans (as applicable) and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (x) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (y) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Tranche A Loans or Tranche B Loans (as applicable) and such other obligations of the other Tranche A Lenders or Tranche B Lenders (as applicable), or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Tranche A Lenders or Tranche B Lenders (as applicable) ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest

on their respective Tranche A Loans or Tranche B Loans (as applicable) and other amounts owing them; provided that:

(i)    if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and

(ii)    the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).

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

(d)    If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.12(b) or Section 2.12(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

Section 2.14    Increased Cost of Loans.

(a)    If any Change in Law shall:

(i)    impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended or participated in by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender;

(ii)    subjects any Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, or (B) Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii)    impose on such Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement, any Note or the Eurodollar Loans;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender hereunder or under any Note (whether of principal, interest, or otherwise), then, in any such case, the Borrower shall pay such Lender, upon written demand being made to the Borrower by such Lender, such additional amount or amounts which will compensate such Lender for such amounts as such Lender reasonably deems to be material with respect to this Agreement, the Notes or the Loans hereunder, provided, however, that if all or any such additional cost would not have been payable, or such reduction would not have occurred, but for such Lender’s decision to designate a new Eurodollar Lending Office or Domestic Lending Office or refusal to change to another Eurodollar Lending Office or Domestic Lending Office as provided below, the Borrower shall have no obligation under this Section 2.14 to compensate such Lender for such amount. Such demand shall be accompanied by a certificate of a duly authorized officer of such Lender setting forth the amount of such payment and the basis therefor. Each Lender shall also give written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement which would entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation and will designate a different Eurodollar Lending Office or a Domestic Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the sole opinion of such Lender, be disadvantageous to such Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Lender shall demand payment pursuant to this Section 2.14, the Borrower may, upon at least two (2) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, continue in whole (but not in part) the Eurodollar Loans of such Lender into Alternate Base Rate Loans without regard to the requirements of Section 2.10.

(b)    If any Lender shall have reasonably determined any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital, or in the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender, or such Lender’s holding company, could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for such reduction from and after such date the Borrower receives the request; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any capital adequacy or liquidity requirement imposed solely by reason of any business combination effected after the date hereof.

(c)    A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.14 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be prima facie evidence of the

amount of such payment. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

(d)    Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

Section 2.15    Illegality. Notwithstanding anything herein contained, if any Lender shall make a good faith determination that a Change in Law shall make it unlawful for such Lender to give effect to its obligations to make, continue or maintain its Eurodollar Loans under this Agreement, the obligation of such Lender to make, continue or maintain Eurodollar Loans hereunder shall be suspended for the duration of such illegality. Such Lender, by written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, shall declare that such Lender’s obligation to make Eurodollar Loans and to, continue and maintain Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended, and the Borrower, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Loans or portion thereof or, if such Lender so requests, on such earlier date as may be required by relevant law, shall continue such Eurodollar Loans or portion thereof as Alternate Base Rate Loans without regard to the requirements of Section 2.10. If and when such illegality ceases to exist, such suspension shall cease and such Lender shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof and any Loans previously continued from Eurodollar Loans to Alternate Base Rate Loans pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be continued as Loans of Types corresponding to the Loans maintained by the other Lenders on the last day of the Interest Period of the corresponding Eurodollar Loans of such other Lenders.

Section 2.16    Taxes.

(a)    Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under each Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and 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 (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholding (including deductions or withholding of Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the Administrative Agent or any Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholding of Indemnified Taxes been made, (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deductions or withholding, and (iii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

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

(c)    The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid or payable by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under each Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) 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 Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be indemnified for any Indemnified Taxes hereunder unless the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall make written demand on Borrower for such reimbursement no later than 270 days after the earlier of (i) the date on which the relevant Governmental Authority makes written demand upon the Administrative Agent or such Lender for payment of such Indemnified Taxes, and (ii) the date on which the Administrative Agent or such Lender has made payment of such Indemnified Taxes; provided that if the Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted giving rise to such claims are retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(d)    As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, 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.

(e)    (i) Any Lender 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 prescribed by applicable law or 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 Lender, 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 Lender 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 2.16(e) (ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes

a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B)    any Foreign Lender 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 Lender becomes a Lender 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:

(i)    in the case of a Foreign Lender 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 originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, 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, as applicable, 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;

(ii)    executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(iii)    in the case of a Foreign Lender 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 C-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender 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” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

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

(C)    any Foreign Lender 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 Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon

the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals 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 Lender or the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender or Administrative Agent 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 Lender or the Administrative Agent 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 Lender or Administrative Agent has complied with its 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 Lender and the Administrative Agent 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.

(f)    If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, however, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to forthwith repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.16(f), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.16(f) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or Lender 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. Nothing contained in this Section 2.16 shall require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(g)    If the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.16, in the future and (b) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(h)    For purposes of this Section 2.16, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

Section 2.17    Substitute Loan Basis. Unless and until a Replacement Rate is implemented in accordance with Section 2.25 below, in the event that prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing the Majority Lenders shall reasonably determine (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that (a) by reason of changes affecting the London Interbank Eurodollar Market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such requested Interest Period, or (b) the LIBO Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period then, and in any such event, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice to the Borrower and, (i) unless, on the date upon which such Eurodollar Loans were to be made, the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that it elects not to borrow on such date, any Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Alternate Base Rate Loans, (ii) any Loans that were to have been, on the first day of such Interest Period, continued as Eurodollar Loans, shall be continued as Alternate Base Rate Loans on the date upon which such Loans were to have been continued, and (iii) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be continued, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, as Alternate Base Rate Loans on the date upon which such Loans are to be continued. The Administrative Agent shall give written notice to the Borrower of any event occurring after the giving of such notice which permits an adequate and fair means of ascertaining the LIBO Rate and until such notice by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to continue as Eurodollar Loans.

Section 2.18    Certain Prepayments or Continuations. If the Eurodollar Loans of any Lender are prepaid or continued as Alternate Base Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.14 or Section 2.15 (such Eurodollar Loans being herein called “Affected Loans”), unless and until such Lender gives written notice that the circumstances which gave rise to such prepayment or continuation no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) such Lender shall not make further Affected Loans and all Loans which would otherwise be made by such Lender as, or continued by such Lender into, Affected Loans shall be made instead as, or continued as Alternate

Base Rate Loans (on which interest and principal shall be payable simultaneously with the related Loans of the other Lenders).

Section 2.19    Certain Notices. Notices by the Borrower under each of Section 2.03, Section 2.06, Section 2.07, Section 2.14, Section 2.17, and Section 2.10 and under the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01 (a) shall (unless otherwise specifically provided) be given in writing, by facsimile, or by electronic communication in accordance with Section 10.1(b), and (b) shall be effective only if received by the Administrative Agent and, in the case of Section 2.14, the Lender involved, not later than 11:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the day specified in the respective Section or definition as the latest day such notice may be given. Notices by the Borrower under each of Section 2.03, Section 2.06, Section 2.07, Section 2.14, Section 2.17, and Section 2.10 shall be irrevocable.

Section 2.20    Minimum Amounts of Eurodollar Borrowings. All Borrowings and continuations of Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate Principal Amount of the Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be equal to $10,000,000 or a whole multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof.

Section 2.21    Break Funding Payments In the event of (a) the payment of any Principal Amount of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the continuation of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the Principal Amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the LIBO Rate (in the case of a Eurodollar Loan) that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such Principal Amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the Eurodollar market. A certificate of any such Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender shall be entitled to receive any amount or amounts pursuant to this Section if such amount or amounts are attributable solely to the merger or other consolidation of such Lender with another Lender.

Section 2.22    [Reserved].

Section 2.23    Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, 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 Section 10.02.

(b)    Reallocation of Payments. 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, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.08), 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, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Administrative Agent or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction. 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 pursuant to this Section 2.23(b) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(c)    [Reserved].

(d)    Certain Fees. For any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Tranche A Ticking Fee or Tranche B Ticking Fee (as applicable) pursuant to Section 2.04 (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).

(e)    Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be 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 Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as

the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.24    [Reserved].

Section 2.25    Alternate Rate of Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.17 above, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination (such determination to be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances described in Section 2.17(a) have arisen and that such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (ii) the LIBO Rate is no longer a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in the U.S. syndicated loan market in Dollars or (iii) the applicable supervisor or administrator (if any) of the LIBO Rate specified herein or any Governmental Authority having or purporting to have jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Rate specified herein shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans in the U.S. syndicated loan market in Dollars, then the Administrative Agent may, to the extent practicable (as determined by the Administrative Agent to be generally in accordance with similar situations in other transactions in which it is serving as administrative agent or otherwise consistent with market practice generally) and subject to Borrower’s consent, establish a replacement interest rate (the “Replacement Rate”) to the LIBO Rate, in which case, the Replacement Rate shall, subject to the next two sentences, replace the LIBO Rate for all purposes under the Loan Documents unless and until (A) an event described in Section 2.17(a) or clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above occurs with respect to the Replacement Rate or (B) the Administrative Agent (or the Majority Lenders through the Administrative Agent) notifies the Borrower that the Administrative Agent has, or the Majority Lenders have, reasonably determined that the Replacement Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding the Loans bearing interest at the Replacement Rate. In connection with the establishment and application of the Replacement Rate, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.25. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 10.02), such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or such other Loan Documents so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the delivery of such amendment to the Lenders, a written notice signed by Lenders constituting Majority Lenders stating that such Lenders object to such amendment (which such notice shall note with specificity the particular provisions of the amendment to which such Lenders object).

Section 3.01    Representations of the Borrower. The Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on the Effective Date (other than with respect to Section 3.01(o)) and on the Closing Date that:

(a)    Each of the Borrower and each Subsidiary has been duly formed and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and is qualified to do business as a foreign entity and is in good standing in each jurisdiction of the United States in which the ownership of its properties or the conduct of its business requires such qualification and where the failure to so qualify would constitute a Material Adverse Change.

(b)    Each Loan Document has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Borrower and such Loan Document constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principals of equity (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or law). There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, threatened against the Borrower or any Subsidiary which purports to affect the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(c)    The execution, delivery and performance of each Loan Document by the Borrower will not violate or conflict with (i) the organizational documents of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, as in effect on the Effective Date or (ii) any indenture, loan agreement or other similar agreement or instrument binding on the Borrower or any Subsidiary.

(d)    The Borrower and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all laws, rules, regulations, orders, decrees and requirements of any Governmental Authority applicable to them or their properties, except where the necessity of compliance therewith is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings or such failure to comply would not have or would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. The Borrower has implemented and maintains in effect policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance by the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (acting in their capacity as an agent for the Borrower) with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions, and the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective officers and employees and to the knowledge of the Borrower its directors and agents (acting in their capacity as an agent for the Borrower), are in compliance with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions in all material respects. None of (i) the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, any of their respective directors, officers or employees, or (ii) to the knowledge of the Borrower, any agent of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (acting in its capacity as an agent for the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) that will act in any capacity in connection with the credit facility established hereby, is a Sanctioned Person or received notice from, or made a voluntary disclosure to, any governmental authority that enforces Sanctions or any Anti-Corruption Laws regarding a possible violation of Anti-Corruption Laws or Sanctions. To the knowledge of the Borrower, none of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, any of their respective directors, officers or employees, or any agent of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (acting in its

capacity as an agent for the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) that will act in any capacity in connection with the credit facility established hereby, is under administrative, civil or criminal investigation by a governmental authority that enforces Sanctions or any Anti-Corruption Laws for an alleged violation of Anti-Corruption Laws or Sanctions. No proceeds of any Loan have been or will be used in a manner prohibited under Section 4.04(c).

(e)    On the Effective Date there are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against the Borrower or any Subsidiary before any Governmental Authority as to which, in the opinion of the Borrower, there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to constitute a Material Adverse Change.

(f)    The consolidated balance sheets of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2017, and the related consolidated statements of income, partners’ (or stockholders’) equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2017, audited by KPMG LLP, present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2017, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with GAAP applied on a consistent basis.

(g)    There has been no Material Adverse Change since the date of the Borrower’s most recent audited financial statements.

(h)    Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is an “investment company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940.

(i)    No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Plans subject to Title IV of ERISA (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87 or any successor thereto) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans by an amount that could reasonably be expected to be a Material Adverse Change.

Section 9.01    Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Barclays Bank PLC to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the Borrower shall

not have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) 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 such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

Section 9.02    Exculpatory Provisions.

(a)    The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(i)    shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii)    shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

(iii)    shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(b)    The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.02 and 8.01), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent in writing by the Borrower or a Lender.

(c)    The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with

this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in ARTICLE VII or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

Section 9.03    Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the Effective Date or to the Closing Date that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the Effective Date or the Closing Date, as applicable. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a notice of the assignment or transfer thereof satisfactory to the Administrative Agent signed by such payee shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent.

Section 9.04    Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub agents.

Section 9.05    Right to Indemnity. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder or under any agreement executed and delivered pursuant to the terms hereof unless it shall first be indemnified (upon requesting such indemnification) to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent, to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower, under this Agreement, ratably in accordance with the aggregate Principal Amount of the Loans made by them (or, if no Loans are outstanding,

ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments), for any and all liabilities, obligations, 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 the Administrative Agent as agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Notes or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the Transactions (including the costs and expenses which the Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement but excluding, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, normal administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency duties hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents; provided no such liability, obligation, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement results from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment); provided, however, that, in the event the Administrative Agent receives indemnification from the Lenders hereunder with respect to costs and expenses which the Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall remit to the Lenders the amount of such costs and expenses to the extent subsequently paid by the Borrower, such remittance to be in accordance with the proportionate amount of the indemnification made by each respective Lender.

Section 9.06    Rights as a Lender The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

Section 9.07    Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower of this Agreement or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the properties or books of the Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Borrower or which may at any time come into possession of any Agent or any of their respective Affiliates.

Section 9.08    Events of Default. If the Administrative Agent receives actual knowledge of an Event of Default hereunder, such Agent shall promptly inform the Lenders thereof. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have actual knowledge of an Event of Default hereunder until it shall have received a written notice from the Borrower or any Lender referring to this Agreement, describing such Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default.”

Section 9.09    Resignation of Administrative Agent.

(a)    The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in New York, New York. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Majority Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b)    With effect from the Resignation Effective Date (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Majority Lenders, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent), and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this ARTICLE IX and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as the Administrative Agent hereunder.

Section 9.10    No Other Duties, Etc.. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the bookrunners, Arrangers, the Syndication Agents or the Documentation Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder.

Section 9.11    Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a)    to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.04 and 10.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b)    to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.04 and 10.03.

(b)    Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to ARTICLE II if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), and (ii) notices or communications posted to an internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient, at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i), of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, for both clauses (i) and (ii) above, if such notice, email or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient.

(c)    Any party hereto may change its address or facsimile number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto.

The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications through the Platform. “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed

to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through the Platform.

Section 10.02    Waivers; Amendments.

(a)    No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Event of Default at the time.

(b)    Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Majority Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Majority Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce any Principal Amount or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or (subject to clause (ii) of the second further proviso hereafter) reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of any Principal Amount, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) [reserved]change Section 7.03, without the consent of each Tranche B Lender, (v) change Section 2.13(a) or Section 2.13(c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (vi) change Section 7.01 or Section 7.02, without the consent of each Lender, or (vii) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Majority Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, or (viii) change Section 2.06(b) or Section 2.08(f) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of Commitment reductions required thereby, without the consent of each Lender; provided further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent; provided further, (i) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend any provision of the Loan Documents (and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error, ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or omission of a technical or immaterial nature in any such provision, and (ii) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may, without the consent of any Lender, enter into amendments or modifications to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or to

enter into additional Loan Documents as the Administrative Agent and the Borrower reasonably deem appropriate in order to implement any Replacement Rate or otherwise effectuate the terms of Section 2.25 in accordance with the terms of Section 2.25, subject to Majority Lenders’ right to object thereto as provided in such Section 2.25. 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 Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended or the principal owed to such Lender reduced, or the final maturity thereof extended, without the consent of such Lender; provided, that any amendment to this clause shall require the approval of each Lender, including any Defaulting Lender.

Section 10.03    Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a)    The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of a single legal counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers (and of a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction), in connection with the syndication (prior to the date hereof) of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender and a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest among such Persons and notice to the Borrower of such conflict, such individual counsel as such affected Persons may retain), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights under this Section, including all such reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Borrower shall not have any obligation to pay the fees or expenses of any Lender or the Administrative Agent in connection with any assignment of, or the grant of any participation in, any rights of a Lender under or in connection with this Agreement; provided that the provisions of this sentence shall not apply to any Lender substituted for a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.13(a).

(b)    The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, penalties, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of one primary counsel for all such Persons, taken as a whole, and a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest among such Indemnitees and notice to the Borrower of such conflict, such individual counsel as such affected Indemnitees may retain), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence

or release of hazardous materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any liability that Borrower or any Subsidiary may have under Environmental Laws, or, or (iv) any actual or prospective action, suit, claim, litigation, investigation or proceedings (including any investigations or inquiries) relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, penalties, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (i) resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith, unlawful conduct or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment, (ii) result from a material breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment or (iii)  result from disputes, claims, demands, actions, judgments or suits not arising from any act or omission by the Borrower or its Affiliates, brought by an Indemnitee against any other Indemnitee (other than disputes, claims, demands, actions, judgments or suits involving claims against any Agent in its capacity as such). This Section 10.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c)    To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by them to the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such.

(d)    To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each party hereto and each of its respective Related Parties shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against each other party hereto and its Related Parties (including, as applicable, each Indemnitee), 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, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan, or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the Borrower's indemnification obligations pursuant to this Section 10.03. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above 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.

(e)    All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor together with a copy of the invoice(s) or other documentation setting forth in reasonable detail the amount demanded and the matter(s) to which it relates.

Section 10.04    Successors and Assigns.

(a)    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, except that (i) the

Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (A) pursuant to a merger or amalgamation permitted under Section 6.08 or (B) with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. 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 paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b)    (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

(A)    the Borrower, provided that (x) no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee and (y) 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 five (5) Business Days after received notice thereof; and

(B)    the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, or an Approved Fund.

(ii)    Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A)    except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(B)    each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and, unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, shall result in the assigning Lender having no less than $10,000,000 in Commitments and Loans after giving effect to such assignment;

(C)    the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500;

(D)    the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire;

(E)    no such assignment shall be made (1) to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (2) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (2);

(F)    no such assignment shall be made to a natural Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person); and

(G)    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 and each Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. 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.

(iii)    Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14, Section 2.16, Section 2.21 and Section 10.03 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 Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv)    The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v)    Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b)(ii)(C) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b)(i) of this Section and upon satisfaction of the additional conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register maintained at the New York office of the Administrative Agent. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the applicable Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c)    Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than a natural Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person), a Defaulting Lender or the Borrower or its Affiliates) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender 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 Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14, Section 2.16 and Section 2.21 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.16(e) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.16(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 10.13 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or Section 2.16, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive. Each Lender 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 10.13 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13(c) as though it were a Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, unless otherwise contractually agreed, no Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender 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 Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans 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 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 Lender 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.

(d)    Any Lender 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 Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or other central banking authority, and to a trustee for the benefit of holders of debt securities issued by such Lender, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

Section 10.05    Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto

and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 2.14, Section 2.16, Section 2.21, Section 10.03, this Section 10.05, and ARTICLE IX shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other provision hereof.

Section 10.06    Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 7.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Section 10.07    Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 10.08    Right of Setoff. If (a) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (b) the principal of the Loans has been accelerated, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or

hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or any such Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that 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 2.23 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 and the Lenders, and (y) the 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. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or such Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
