1.3 Interpretation, etc. Any of the terms defined herein may, unless the context otherwise requires, be used in the singular or the plural, depending on the reference. References herein to any Section, Appendix, Schedule or Exhibit shall be to a Section, an Appendix, a Schedule or an Exhibit, as the case may be, hereof unless otherwise specifically provided. The use herein of the word “include” or “including”, when following any general statement, term or matter, shall not be construed to limit such statement, term or matter to the specific items or matters set forth immediately following such word or to similar items or matters, whether or not no limiting language (such as “without limitation” or “but not limited to” or words of similar import) is used with reference thereto, but rather shall be deemed to refer to all other items or matters that fall within the broadest possible scope of such general statement, term or matter. The use herein of the word “issue” or “issuance” with respect to any Letter of Credit shall be deemed to include any amendment, extension or renewal thereof. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, the term “consolidated” with respect to any Person refers to such Person consolidated with its Restricted Subsidiaries, and excludes from such consolidation any Unrestricted Subsidiary as if such Unrestricted Subsidiary were not an Affiliate of such Person. Any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and permitted assigns. 1.4 Exchange Rates; Currency Equivalents. (a) Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, shall determine the Spot Rates as of each Revaluation Date to be used for calculating Dollar Equivalent amounts of Credit Extensions and Outstanding Amounts denominated in Alternative Currencies. Such Spot Rates shall become effective as of such Revaluation Date and shall be the Spot Rates employed in converting any amounts between the applicable currencies until the next Revaluation Date to occur. Except for purposes of financial statements delivered by Credit Parties hereunder or calculating financial covenants hereunder or except as otherwise provided herein, the applicable amount of any currency (other than Dollars) for purposes of the Credit Documents shall be such Dollar Equivalent amount as so determined by Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable. (b) Wherever in this Agreement in connection with a borrowing, conversion, continuation or prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan or the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit, an amount, such as a required minimum or multiple amount, is expressed in Dollars, but such borrowing, Eurodollar Rate Loan or Letter of Credit is denominated in an Alternative Currency, such amount shall be the relevant Alternative Currency Equivalent of such Dollar amount (rounded to the nearest unit of such Alternative Currency, with 0.5 of a unit being rounded upward), as determined by Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be. (c) For purposes of determining compliance with any Dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the Dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the Spot Rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such Refinancing would cause the applicable Dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the Spot Rate in effect -64- 105376510


 
on the date of such Refinancing such Dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Indebtedness so refinanced does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being Refinanced. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being Refinanced, shall be calculated based on the Spot Rate that is in effect on the date of such Refinancing. 1.5 Additional Alternative Currencies. (a) Company may from time to time request that Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans be made and/or Letters of Credit be issued in a currency other than those specifically listed in the definition of “Alternative Currency”; provided, that such requested currency is a lawful currency (other than Dollars) that is readily available and freely transferable and convertible into Dollars. In the case of any such request with respect to the making of Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans, such request shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders; and in the case of any such request with respect to the issuance of Letters of Credit, such request shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank. (b) Any such request shall be made to Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of the desired Credit Extension (or such other time or date as may be reasonably agreed by Administrative Agent and, in the case of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank, in its or their sole discretion). In the case of any such request pertaining to Eurodollar Rate Loans, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof; and in the case of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Issuing Banks thereof. Each Revolving Lender (in the case of any such request pertaining to Eurodollar Rate Loans) or the Issuing Banks (in the case of a request pertaining to Letters of Credit) shall notify Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m., two (2) Business Days after receipt of such request whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to the making of Eurodollar Rate Loans or the issuance of Letters of Credit, as the case may be, in such requested currency. (c) Any failure by a Revolving Lender or an Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a refusal by such Revolving Lender or applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to permit Eurodollar Rate Loans to be made or Letters of Credit to be issued in such requested currency. If Administrative Agent and all the Revolving Lenders consent to making Eurodollar Rate Loans in such requested currency, Administrative Agent shall so notify Company and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of any borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans; and if Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks consent to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency, Administrative Agent shall so notify Company and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of any Letter of Credit issuances. If Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for an additional currency under this Section 1.5, Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify Company. 1.6 Change of Currency. -65- 105376510

Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Issuer Document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms in this Agreement shall control. 1.8 Rounding. Any financial ratios required to be maintained by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a rounding-up if there is no nearest number). 1.9 Times of Day; Rates.

If any portion of any such amount paid (or deemed to be paid) to Swing Line Lender should be recovered by or on behalf of Company from Swing Line Lender in bankruptcy, by assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise, the loss of the amount so recovered shall be ratably shared among all Lenders in the manner contemplated by Section 2.17. -72- 105376510


 
(v) If for any reason Revolving Loans are not made pursuant to Section 2.3(b)(iv) in an amount sufficient to repay any amounts owed to Swing Line Lender in respect of any outstanding Swing Line Loans on or before the third Business Day after demand for payment thereof by Swing Line Lender, each Lender holding a Revolving Commitment on such date shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to, have purchased a participation in such outstanding Swing Line Loans, and in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the applicable unpaid amount together with accrued interest thereon. Upon one (1) Business Day’s notice from Swing Line Lender, each Lender holding a Revolving Commitment on such date shall deliver to Swing Line Lender an amount equal to its respective participation in the applicable unpaid amount in same day funds at the Principal Office of Swing Line Lender. In order to evidence such participation each Lender holding a Revolving Commitment on such date agrees to enter into a participation agreement at the request of Swing Line Lender in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Swing Line Lender. In the event any Lender holding a Revolving Commitment on such date fails to make available to Swing Line Lender the amount of such Lender’s participation as provided in this paragraph, Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate. (vi) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (1) each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans for the purpose of repaying any Refunded Swing Line Loans pursuant to the second preceding paragraph and each Revolving Lender’s obligation to purchase a participation in any unpaid Swing Line Loans pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including without limitation (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against Swing Line Lender, any Credit Party or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuation of a Default or Event of Default; (C) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of any Credit Party; (D) any breach of this Agreement or any other Credit Document by any party thereto; or (E) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that such obligations of each Revolving Lender are subject to the condition that Swing Line Lender believed in good faith that all conditions under Section 3.2 to the making of the applicable Refunded Swing Line Loans or other unpaid Swing Line Loans, were satisfied at the time such Refunded Swing Line Loans or unpaid Swing Line Loans were made, or the satisfaction of any such condition not satisfied had been waived by the Requisite Lenders prior to or at the time such Refunded Swing Line Loans or other unpaid Swing Line Loans were made; and (2) Swing Line Lender shall not be obligated to make any Swing Line Loans (A) if it has elected not to do so after the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default or Event of Default or (B) at a time when any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender unless Swing Line Lender has entered into arrangements satisfactory to it and Company to eliminate Swing Line Lender’s risk with respect to the Defaulting Lender’s participation in such Swing Line Loan, including by Cash -73- 105376510


 
Collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Swing Line Loans. (c) Outstanding Swing Line Loans. All Swing Line Loans, if any, outstanding under the First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement on the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date shall remain outstanding as Swing Line Loans under this Agreement until otherwise repaid or prepaid in accordance with the terms hereof. 2.4 Issuance of Letters of Credit and Purchase of Participations Therein. (a) Letters of Credit. (i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) each Issuing Bank agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the Revolving Lenders set forth in this Section 2.4, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit (including IRB L/Cs) denominated in Dollars or, with the consent of the applicable Issuing Lender, in one or more Alternative Currencies for the account of Company or its Subsidiaries, and to amend or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with paragraph (b) below, and (2) to honor drawings under the Letters of Credit; and (B) the Revolving Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the account of Company or its Subsidiaries and any drawings thereunder; provided that after giving effect to any Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, (x) the Total Utilization of Revolving Commitments shall not exceed the Revolving Commitments then in effect, (y) the Revolving Exposure (as determined in accordance with clause (ii) of the definition thereof) of any Revolving Lender shall not exceed such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment then in effect, and (z) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations shall not exceed $600,000,000 (or such greater amount agreed to by the Issuing Banks); provided, further, that in no event shall any Issuing Bank be required to issue Letters of Credit in an aggregate outstanding amount exceeding such Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Commitment. Each request by Company for the issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by Company that the Credit Extension so requested complies with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Company’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly Company may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. This Agreement shall be the “Reimbursement Agreement” referred to in the IRB L/Cs. All Existing Letters of Credit shall remain outstanding as Letters of Credit under this Agreement or, in the case of Existing Letters of Credit issued by new Issuing Banks, be deemed issued hereunder, in each case until such Letters of Credit expire or terminate in accordance with their terms. (ii) No Issuing Bank shall issue any Letter of Credit, if: -74- 105376510


 
(1) subject to Section 2.4(b)(iii), the expiry date of the requested Letter of Credit (other than IRB L/Cs) would occur more than twelve (12) months after the date of issuance or last extension, unless such Issuing Bank has approved such expiry date; or (2) the expiry date of the requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless the Requisite Class Lenders of all applicable Revolving Lenders have approved such expiry date and such Issuing Bank shall be satisfied with the arrangements with respect to the period commencing on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and ending on such expiry date (it being understood and agreed that, for the avoidance of doubt, no Revolving Lender shall be required to fund its Revolving Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to Section 2.4(c) after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date). (iii) No Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if: (1) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing the Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to the Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date and which such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it; (2) the issuance of the Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the applicable Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally; (3) except as otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, the Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than $500,000, in the case of a commercial Letter of Credit, or $100,000, in the case of a standby Letter of Credit; (4) the applicable Issuing Bank does not as of the issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit issue Letters of Credit in the requested currency; or (5) any Revolving Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless the applicable Issuing Bank is satisfied that the participations in any existing Letters of Credit as well as the new, extended, renewed or increased -75- 105376510


 
Letter of Credit has been or will be fully allocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.22(a)(iii) and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein except to the extent such Defaulting Lender’s participation has been or will be fully Cash Collateralized in accordance with Section 2.22(d). (iv) No Issuing Bank shall amend any Letter of Credit if such Issuing Bank would not be permitted at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof. (v) No Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (1) such Issuing Bank would not have any obligation at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (2) the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to the Letter of Credit. (vi) Each Issuing Bank shall act on behalf of the Revolving Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and each Issuing Bank shall have all of the benefits and immunities (1) provided to Administrative Agent in Section 9 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such Issuing Bank in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Section 9 included the Issuing Banks with respect to such acts or omissions, and (2) as additionally provided herein with respect to the Issuing Banks. (b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto- Extension Letters of Credit. (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of Company delivered to the applicable Issuing Bank (with a copy to Administrative Agent) in the form of an Issuance Notice and Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by an Authorized Officer of Company. Such Issuance Notice and Letter of Credit Application may be sent by facsimile, by United States mail, by overnight courier, by electronic transmission using the system provided by the applicable Issuing Bank, by personal delivery or by any other means acceptable to such Issuing Bank. Such Issuance Notice and Letter of Credit Application must be received by the applicable Issuing Bank and Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. at least two (2) Business Days (or such later date and time as Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank and Company may agree in a particular instance in their reasonable discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be, and the timing of submission of the Letter of Credit Application with respect to an IRB L/C shall be as determined by such Issuing Bank and Company (not to exceed five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment). In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount and currency thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and -76- 105376510


 
address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the purpose and nature of the requested Letter of Credit; and (H) such other matters as such Issuing Bank may reasonably require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (3) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (4) such other matters as such Issuing Bank may reasonably require. Additionally, Company shall furnish to the applicable Issuing Bank and Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as such Issuing Bank or Administrative Agent may reasonably require. (ii) Promptly after receipt of any Issuance Notice and Letter of Credit Application, the applicable Issuing Bank will confirm with Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Issuance Notice and Letter of Credit Application from Company and, if not, the applicable Issuing Bank will provide Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the applicable Issuing Bank has received written notice from any Revolving Lender, Administrative Agent or any Credit Party, at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Section 3.2 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of Company (or the applicable Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from such Issuing Bank a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitments times the amount of such Letter of Credit. (iii) If Company so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit such Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by such Issuing Bank, Company shall not be required to make a specific request to such Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once an Auto- Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) such Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date (unless all the Requisite Class Lenders of Revolving Commitments then in effect -77- 105376510


 
have approved such expiry date and such Issuing Bank shall be satisfied with the arrangements with respect to the period commencing on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and ending on such expiry date); provided, however, that such Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension if (A) such Issuing Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of paragraph (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.4(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven (7) Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from Administrative Agent that the Requisite Class Lenders of Revolving Commitments then in effect have elected not to permit such extension, and directing such Issuing Bank not to permit such extension or (2) from Administrative Agent, any Revolving Lender or Company that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 3.2 is not then satisfied and, in each case, directing such Issuing Bank not to permit such extension. (iv) If Company so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue an IRB L/C that permits the automatic reinstatement of all or a portion of the stated amount thereof after any drawing thereunder (each, an “Auto-Reinstatement IRB Letter of Credit”). Unless otherwise directed by such Issuing Bank, Company shall not be required to make a specific request to such Issuing Bank to permit such reinstatement. Once an Auto-Reinstatement IRB Letter of Credit has been issued, except as provided in the following sentence, the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) such Issuing Bank to reinstate all or a portion of the stated amount thereof in accordance with the provisions of such IRB L/C. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such Auto-Reinstatement IRB Letter of Credit permits such Issuing Bank to decline to reinstate all or any portion of the stated amount thereof after a drawing thereunder by giving notice of such non-reinstatement within a specified number of days after such drawing (the “IRB L/C Non-Reinstatement Deadline”), such Issuing Bank shall not permit such reinstatement if it has received a notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven (7) Business Days before the IRB L/C Non-Reinstatement Deadline (A) from Administrative Agent that the Requisite Class Lenders of Revolving Commitments then in effect have elected not to permit such reinstatement or (B) from Administrative Agent, any Revolving Lender or Company that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 3.2 is not then satisfied (treating such reinstatement as an Credit Extension for purposes of this clause) and, in each case, directing such Issuing Bank not to permit such reinstatement. (v) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Issuing Bank will also deliver to Company and Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. (c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. (i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall notify -78- 105376510


 
Company and Administrative Agent thereof. In the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, Company shall reimburse such Issuing Bank in such Alternative Currency or, if mutually agreed by Company and such Issuing Bank, in Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Issuing Bank shall notify Company of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m. (or, with respect to any IRB L/C, the time set forth therein) on the date of any payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in Dollars, or the Applicable Time on the date of any payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in an Alternative Currency (or, with respect to any IRB L/C, the time set forth therein) (each such date, an “Honor Date”), Company shall reimburse such Issuing Bank through Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing and in the applicable currency. If Company does not reimburse such Issuing Bank by such time (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not constitute an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.1(a) if such drawing is reimbursed from the proceeds of Revolving Loans in accordance with this Section 2.4(c)), Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (expressed in Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency) (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. In such event, Company shall be deemed to have requested a borrowing of Revolving Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.2 for the principal amount of Revolving Loans. Any notice given by such Issuing Bank or Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.4(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. (ii) Each Revolving Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(i) make funds available (and Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, in Dollars, at Administrative Agent’s Principal Office for Dollar-denominated payments in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.4(c)(iii), each Revolving Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to Company in such amount. Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the applicable Issuing Bank in Dollars. (iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a borrowing of Base Rate Loans for any reason, Company shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable Issuing Bank an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Revolving Lender’s payment to Administrative Agent for the account of -79- 105376510


 
the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Revolving Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.4. (iv) Until each Revolving Lender funds its Revolving Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.4(c) to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such amount shall be solely for the account of such Issuing Bank. (v) Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.4(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Lender may have against such Issuing Bank, Company, any Subsidiary or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of Company to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for the amount of any payment made by such Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein. (vi) If any Revolving Lender fails to make available to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.4(c) by the time specified in Section 2.4(c)(ii), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, the applicable Issuing Bank shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Lender (acting through Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the applicable Issuing Bank at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Issuing Bank in connection with the foregoing. If such Revolving Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan included in the relevant borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the applicable Issuing Bank submitted to any Revolving Lender (through Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (d) Repayment of Participations. (i) At any time after the applicable Issuing Bank has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving Lender such Revolving Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.4(c), if Administrative Agent receives for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from Company or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied -80- 105376510


 
thereto by Administrative Agent), Administrative Agent will distribute to such Revolving Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof in Dollars and in the same funds as those received by Administrative Agent. (ii) If any payment received by Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.10 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Issuing Bank in its discretion), each Revolving Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Revolving Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Revolving Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. (e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of Company to reimburse an Issuing Bank for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Credit Document; (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that Company or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), such Issuing Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit; (iv) waiver by such Issuing Bank of any requirement that exists for such Issuing Bank’s protection and not the protection of Company or any waiver by such Issuing Bank which does not in fact materially prejudice Company; (v) honor of a demand for payment presented electronically even if such Letter of Credit requires that demand be in the form of a draft; (vi) any payment made by such Issuing Bank in respect of an otherwise complying item presented after the date specified as the expiration date of, or the date by which documents must be received under such Letter of Credit if presentation after such date is authorized by the UCC, the ISP or the UCP, as applicable; -81- 105376510


 
(vii) any payment by such Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by such Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; (viii) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to Company or any Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally; or (ix) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Company or any Subsidiary. Company shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with Company’s instructions or other irregularity, Company will immediately notify the applicable Issuing Bank. Company shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the applicable Issuing Bank and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid. (f) Role of Issuing Bank. Each Revolving Lender and Company agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, each Issuing Bank shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the Issuing Banks, Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the Issuing Banks shall be liable to any Revolving Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Revolving Lenders or the Requisite Class Lenders of Revolving Commitments then in effect, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. Company hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude Company’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the Issuing Banks, Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the Issuing Banks shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (ix) of Section 2.4(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, Company may have a claim against the Issuing Banks, and the Issuing Bank may be liable to Company, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by Company which Company proves were caused by such Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or such Issuing Bank’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit -82- 105376510


 
(except to the extent such failure is required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the law or any order of a jurisdiction where such Issuing Bank or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice). In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, such Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and such Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. The Issuing Banks may send a Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (known as “SWIFT”) message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary. (g) Applicability of ISP and UCP; Limitation of Liability. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by an Issuing Bank and Company when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the UCP shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuing Banks shall not be responsible to Company for, and such Issuing Bank’s rights and remedies against Company shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of such Issuing Bank required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the law or any order of a jurisdiction where such Issuing Bank or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice.

2.8 Interest on Loans. (a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, each Class of Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) thereof as follows: (i) in the case of Revolving Loans that are denominated in Dollars, Swing Line Loans and Term Loans: (1) if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; or (2) if a Eurodollar Rate Loan, at the Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and (ii) in the case of Revolving Loans that are denominated in an Alternative Currency, at the Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Margin. (b) The basis for determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan (except a Swing Line Loan which can be made and maintained as Base Rate Loans only), and the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loan, shall be selected by Company and notified to Administrative Agent pursuant to the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be. If on any day a Loan is outstanding with respect to which a Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice has not been delivered to Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest, then for that day such Loan shall be (i) in the case of a Loan that is denominated in Dollars, a Base Rate Loan, or (ii) in the case of a Loan that is denominated in an Alternative Currency, a Eurodollar Loan with a one (1) month Interest Period. (c) In connection with Eurodollar Rate Loans there shall be no more than eight (8) Interest Periods outstanding at any time. In the event Company fails to specify between a Base Rate Loan or a Eurodollar Rate Loan in the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, such Loan (if outstanding as a Eurodollar Rate Loan) will be automatically converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then-current Interest Period for such Loan (or if outstanding as a Base Rate Loan will remain as, or (if not then outstanding) will be made as, a Base Rate Loan). In the event Company fails to specify an Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Loan (including any Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency) in the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, Company shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one (1) month. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Company and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, Administrative Agent shall notify Company and the Lenders of any change in Bank of America’s prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change. (d) Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.8(a) shall be computed (i) in the case of Base Rate Loans on the basis of a 365- day or 366-day year, as the case may be, and (ii) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, on the basis of a 360-day year, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on -86- 105376510


 
any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Term Loan, the last Interest Payment Date with respect to such Term Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Eurodollar Rate Loan to such Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such Eurodollar Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided, if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one (1) day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan. With respect to all Non- LIBOR Quoted Currencies, the calculation of the applicable interest rate shall be reasonably determined in accordance with market practice. (e) Except as otherwise set forth herein, interest on each Loan (i) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect to interest accrued on and to each such payment date; (ii) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears upon any prepayment of that Loan, whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid; and (iii) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears at maturity of the Loans, including final maturity of the Loans; provided, however, with respect to any voluntary prepayment of a Base Rate Loan, accrued interest shall instead be payable on the applicable Interest Payment Date. (f) Company agrees to pay to each Issuing Bank, with respect to drawings honored under any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, interest on the amount paid by such Issuing Bank in respect of each such honored drawing from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date such amount is reimbursed by or on behalf of Company (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of any Revolving Loans), at a rate equal to (i) for the period from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date such amount is reimbursed by or on behalf of Company (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of any Revolving Loans), the rate of interest otherwise payable hereunder with respect to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans, or (ii) if applicable in accordance with Section 2.4(c)(iii), the Default Rate. (g) Interest payable pursuant to Sections 2.8(f) shall be computed on the basis of a 365/366-day year for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues, and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand is made, on the date on which the related drawing under a Letter of Credit is reimbursed in full. Promptly upon receipt by an Issuing Bank of any payment of interest pursuant to Section 2.8(f), such Issuing Bank shall distribute to each Revolving Lender, out of the interest received by such Issuing Bank in respect of the period from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date on which such Issuing Bank is reimbursed for the amount of such drawing (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of any Revolving Loans), the amount that such Revolving Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the Letter of Credit Fee that would have been payable in respect of such Letter of Credit for such period if no drawing had been honored under such Letter of Credit. 2.9 Conversion/Continuation. -87- 105376510


 
(a) Subject to Section 2.18 and (with respect to continuations of, or conversions into, Eurodollar Rate Loans whether in Dollars or any Alternative Currency) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, Company shall have the option: (i) to convert at any time all or any part of any Term Loan or Revolving Loan equal to $3,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount from one Type of Loan to another Type of Loan; provided, a Eurodollar Rate Loan may only be converted on the expiration of the Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan unless Company shall pay all amounts due under Section 2.18 in connection with any such conversion; or (ii) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Eurodollar Rate Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Loan equal to $3,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount as a Eurodollar Rate Loan. (b) Each conversion or continuation pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall be made upon the Company’s irrevocable notice to Administrative Agent, which may be given by (A) telephone, or (B) a Conversion/Continuation Notice; provided that any telephone notice must be confirmed immediately by delivery to Administrative Agent of a Conversion/Continuation Notice. Each such notice must be received by Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. at least one (1) Business Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan), at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan denominated in Dollars) and at least four (4) Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency). Except as otherwise provided herein, a Conversion/Continuation Notice for conversion to, or continuation of, any Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and Company shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith. (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue or rollover all or a portion of its Loans in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by the Company, the Administrative Agent, and such Lender. 2.10 Default Interest. The principal amount of all Loans, the Unreimbursed Amount of any Letter of Credit and any Letter of Credit Fees (in each case) not paid when due shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws) payable on demand at the Default Rate. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.10 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Administrative Agent or any Lender. 2.11 Fees; Premium. -88- 105376510


 
(a) Company agrees to pay to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of each Lender having Revolving Exposure: (i) commitment fees equal to (1) the average of the daily difference between (A) the applicable Revolving Commitments, and (B) the Total Utilization of such Revolving Commitments (disregarding item (ii) of the definition thereof), times (2) the applicable Commitment Fee Rate; and (ii) letter of credit fees (“Letter of Credit Fees”) equal to (1) the Applicable Margin for the applicable Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans, times (2) the Dollar Equivalent of the average aggregate daily maximum amount available to be drawn under all such Letters of Credit (regardless of whether any conditions for drawing could then be met and determined as of the close of business on any date of determination). (b) Company agrees to pay directly to each Issuing Bank, for its own account, the following fees: (i) a fronting fee equal to 0.15% per annum, on the face amount of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank; and (ii) such documentary and processing charges for any issuance, amendment, transfer or payment of a Letter of Credit as are in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s standard schedule for such charges and as in effect (and delivered to Company) at the time of such issuance, amendment, transfer or payment, as the case may be. (c) All fees referred to in Sections 2.11(a) shall be paid to Administrative Agent at its Principal Office and upon receipt, Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof.

the remaining scheduled Installments of principal of such Term Loans in order of maturity. (b) Application of Mandatory Prepayments by Type of Loans. Any amount required to be paid pursuant to Sections 2.14(a) through 2.14(c) shall be applied as follows: first, prepay Term Loans on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof) and shall be further applied to prepay such Term Loans on a pro rata basis to the remaining scheduled Installments of principal of such Term Loans (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the bullet payment due at maturity); second, to prepay the Swing Line Loans to the full extent thereof; third, to prepay the Revolving Loans to the full extent thereof; fourth, to prepay outstanding reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit; and fifth, to Cash Collateralize Letters of Credit. (c) Application of Prepayments of Loans to Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Rate Loans. Considering each Class of Loans being prepaid separately, any prepayment thereof shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Eurodollar Rate Loans, in each case in a manner which minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by Company pursuant to Section 2.18(c). 2.16 General Provisions Regarding Payments. (a) All payments by Company of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made in Dollars (or, in respect of Letters of Credit and Revolving Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Alternative Currency) in same day funds, without defense, recoupment, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date due at the Principal Office designated by Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders; for purposes of computing interest and fees, funds received by Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall be deemed to have been paid by Company on the next succeeding Business Day. If, for any reason, Company is prohibited by any law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, Company shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment amount. (b) Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to any proposed Credit Date of Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 p.m. on the date of such borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such borrowing, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2 (or, in the case of a borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made -96- 105376510


 
such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Company a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable borrowing available to Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender agrees to pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Company to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable borrowing to Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Company and Company shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to Administrative Agent together with interest thereon, for each day from such Credit Date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent, at the rate payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans for such Class of Loans. Nothing in this Section 2.16(b) shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Term Loan Commitments and Revolving Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Company may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. A notice of Administrative Agent to any Lender or Company with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. (c) Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Company prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks hereunder that Company will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Company has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if Company has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Banks, in immediately available funds 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 Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate. (d) All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan (other than voluntary prepayments of Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans) shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid. (e) Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall promptly distribute to each Lender at such address as such Lender shall indicate in writing, such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due thereto, including, without limitation, all fees payable with respect thereto, to the extent received by Administrative Agent. (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions hereof, if any Conversion/Continuation Notice is withdrawn as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans in lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any Eurodollar Rate Loans, Administrative Agent shall give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter. -97- 105376510


 
(g) Subject to the provisos set forth in the definition of “Interest Period” as they may apply to Revolving Loans, whenever any payment to be made hereunder with respect to any Loan shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to Revolving Loans only, such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder or of the Revolving Commitment fees hereunder. (h) Company hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to charge Company’s accounts with Administrative Agent in order to cause timely payment to be made to Administrative Agent of all principal, interest, fees and expenses due hereunder (subject to sufficient funds being available in its accounts for that purpose). (i) Administrative Agent shall deem any payment by or on behalf of Company hereunder that is not made in same day funds prior to 2:00 p.m. to be a non- conforming payment. Any such payment shall not be deemed to have been received by Administrative Agent until the later of (i) the time such funds become available funds, and (ii) the applicable next Business Day. Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice to Company and each applicable Lender (confirmed in writing) if any payment is non-conforming. Any non-conforming payment may constitute or become a Default or Event of Default in accordance with the terms of Section 8.1(a). Interest shall continue to accrue on any principal as to which a non-conforming payment is made until such funds become available funds (but in no event less than the period from the date of such payment to the next succeeding applicable Business Day) at the rate determined pursuant to Section 2.10 from the date such amount was due and payable until the date such amount is paid in full. (j) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and not otherwise been cured or waived, and the maturity of the Obligations shall have been accelerated pursuant to Section 8.1 or pursuant to any sale of, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral, all payments or proceeds received by Agents hereunder in respect of any of the Obligations, shall be applied in accordance with the application arrangements described in Section 7.2 of the Pledge and Security Agreement. (k) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to fund any such participation on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, or to purchase its participation. 2.17 Ratable Sharing. Lenders hereby agree among themselves that, except as otherwise provided in the Collateral Documents with respect to amounts realized from the exercise of rights with respect to Liens on the Collateral, if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as Cash Collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, -98- 105376510


 
interest, amounts payable in respect of Letters of Credit, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided, if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Company or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Company expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set- off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by Company to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder. The provisions of this Section 2.17 shall not be construed to apply to (a) any payment made by Company 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 Disqualified Lender) or (b) any payment obtained by any Lender as consideration for the assignment or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or other Obligations owed to it. 2.18 Making or Maintaining Eurodollar Rate Loans. (a) Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. (i) Temporary Inability. Except in the case of circumstances described in Section 2.18(a)(ii), if in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof, (A) the Administrative Agent determines that on any Interest Rate Determination Date (1) deposits (whether in Dollars or an Alternative Currency) are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore interbank market for such currency for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan or (2) adequate and reasonable means do not exist to determine the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, (in each case with respect to this clause (a)(i)(A), the “Impacted Loans”), or (B) the Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders determine that for any reason the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Eurodollar Rate Loan, Administrative Agent shall on such date give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Company and each Lender of such determination. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods) and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurodollar Rate component of the -99- 105376510


 
Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurodollar Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until Administrative Agent upon the instruction of the Requisite Lenders revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, Company may revoke any pending Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice of Eurodollar Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Administrative Agent has made the determination described in clause (a)(i)(A) above, Administrative Agent, in consultation with Company and the Requisite Lenders, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (1) Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (a)(i)(A) above, (2) Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders notify Administrative Agent and Company that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the Impacted Loans, or (3) any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides Administrative Agent and Company written notice thereof. (ii) Non-Temporary Inability. (1) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Credit Documents, including Section 2.18(a)(i) above, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Company or the Requisite Lenders notify the Administrative Agent in writing (with, in the case of the Requisite Lenders, a copy to the Company) that the Company or the Requisite Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that: (A) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period, including, without limitation, because the LIBOR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or (B) the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which LIBOR or the LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”); or -100- 105376510


 
(C) syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace LIBOR; then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Company may amend this Agreement to replace LIBOR with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein), giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks (any such proposed rate, a “LIBOR Successor Rate”), together with any proposed LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Company unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Requisite Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Requisite Lenders do not accept such amendment. (2) If no LIBOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (ii)(1)(A) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Company and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) the Eurodollar Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans denominated in a LIBOR Quoted Currency (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a borrowing of Base Rate Loans (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the amount specified therein. (3) Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of LIBOR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such LIBOR Successor Rate be less than zero for purposes of this Agreement. (b) Illegality or Impracticability of Eurodollar Rate Loans. If in the event that on any date any Lender shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be made only after consultation with Company and Administrative Agent) that the performance of any of its obligations hereunder, or the making, maintaining, funding, continuation or charging of interest with respect to any Credit Extension or its Eurodollar Rate Loans (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency) (i) has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with -101- 105376510


 
any law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), or (ii) has become impracticable, as a result of contingencies occurring after the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date which materially and adversely affect the London interbank market or the position of such Lender in that market, then, and in any such event, such Lender shall be an “Affected Lender” and it shall on that day give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Company and Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Thereafter (1) the obligation of the Affected Lender to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any such Credit Extension or continue Loans in the affected currency or currencies as, or to convert Loans to, Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until such notice shall be withdrawn by the Affected Lender, (2) to the extent such determination by the Affected Lender relates to a Eurodollar Rate Loan in Dollars then being requested by Company pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Affected Lender shall make such Loan as (or continue such Loan as or convert such Loan to, as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan, (3) the Affected Lender’s obligation to maintain its outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans (the “Affected Loans”) shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the relevant Interest Periods, then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law and Company shall prepay or convert such Affected Loans together with accrued interest, (4) the Affected Loans that are denominated in Dollars shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans on the date of such termination and (5) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by Administrative Agent pursuant to such definition without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described above relates to a Eurodollar Rate Loan then being requested by Company pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, Company shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 2.18(c), to rescind such Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice as to all Lenders by giving notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of rescission Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). If Company does not rescind such Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Affected Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Loan shall constitute a Base Rate Loan. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in this Section 2.18(b) shall affect the obligation of any Lender other than an Affected Lender to make or maintain Loans as, or to convert Loans to, Eurodollar Rate Loans in accordance with the terms hereof. (c) Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. Company shall compensate each Lender, upon written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including (x) the difference between any interest paid by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Eurodollar Rate Loans and the Eurodollar Rate such Lender would receive in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds and -102- 105376510


 
(y) amounts received by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds and any expense or liability incurred in connection therewith) which such Lender may actually sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by any such Lender) a borrowing of any Eurodollar Rate Loan (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency) does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Funding Notice or a telephonic request for borrowing, or a conversion to or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice or a telephonic request for conversion or continuation; (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment (other than a mandatory prepayment under Section 2.14) of, or any conversion of, any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan; and (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by Company; provided, Company shall not be obligated to compensate any Lender for any such losses, expenses or liabilities attributable to any such circumstance occurring prior to the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such Lender requested such compensation from Company. (d) Booking of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Eurodollar Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of such Lender. (e) Assumptions Concerning Funding of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under Section 2.18(c) shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded each of its relevant Eurodollar Rate Loans through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (a) of the definition of Eurodollar Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurodollar deposit from an offshore office of such Lender to a domestic office of such Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, each Lender may fund each of its Eurodollar Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under Section 2.18(c). 2.19 Increased Costs; Capital Requirements. (a) Compensation For Increased Costs and Taxes. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.20 (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Lender (which term shall include each Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.19(a)) shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any Change in Law: (i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any Taxes (other than (A) Non-Excluded Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves or other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender or the Issuing Banks, or (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or -103- 105376510


 
affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations hereunder or the London interbank market; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto; then Company shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder; provided, Company shall not be obligated to pay such Lender any compensation attributable to any period prior to the date that is 180 days prior to the date on which such Lender gave notice to Company of the circumstances entitling such Lender to compensation. Such Lender shall deliver to Company (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.19(a) and in the calculation thereof, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error. (b) Capital Requirements Adjustment. In the event that any Lender (which term shall include each Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.19(b)) shall have determined that the adoption, effectiveness, phase-in or change in applicability after the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date of any law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital or liquidity requirements, or any change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) with any guideline, request or directive regarding capital or liquidity requirements (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Loans, Revolving Commitments or Letters of Credit, or participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans or the Letters of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase-in, change in applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling corporation with regard to capital or liquidity requirements), then from time to time, within five (5) Business Days after receipt by Company from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, Company shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation on an after-tax basis for such reduction; provided, Company shall not be obligated to pay such Lender any compensation attributable to any period prior to the date that is 180 days prior to the date on which such Lender gave notice to Company of the circumstances entitling such Lender to compensation. Such Lender shall deliver to Company (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to Lender under this Section 2.19(b) and in the calculation thereof, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error. (c) Additional Reserve Requirements. Company shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets -104- 105376510


 
consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”, as such term is defined in Regulation D) under regulations issued from time to time by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or other applicable banking regulator, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive) commencing on and as of the effective date of any change in the applicable reserve requirement, which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided Company shall have received at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice (with a copy to Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice ten (10) days’ prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable ten (10) days from receipt of such notice; provided, Company shall not be obligated to pay such Lender any additional interest attributable to any period prior to the date that is 30 days prior to the date on which such Lender gave notice to Company of the circumstances entitling such Lender to additional interest. 2.20 Taxes; Withholding, etc. (a) Payments to Be Free and Clear. All sums payable by any Credit Party hereunder and under the other Credit Documents shall (except to the extent required by law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Tax. (b) Withholding of Taxes. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith determination of an applicable withholding agent) requires a deduction or withholding on account of any Tax from any sum paid or payable by any Credit Party to Administrative Agent or any Lender under any of the Credit Documents: (i) Company shall notify Administrative Agent of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement reasonably promptly after Company becomes aware of it; (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deduction and timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law; (iii) if such Tax is a Non-Excluded Tax, the sum payable by such Credit Party in respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding or payment of Non-Excluded Taxes is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of that deduction, withholding or payment of Non-Excluded Taxes, Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction, withholding or payment of Non-Excluded Taxes been required or made; and (iv) within thirty (30) days after paying any sum from which it is required by law to make any deduction or withholding, Company shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by applicable law to report such payment or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent of such deduction, withholding or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant Governmental Authority. (c) Other Taxes. Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.20(b), the Credit Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, all present or future stamp, court or documentary, intangible, recording, filing or similar Taxes that arise from any payment made under, from the execution, delivery, performance, -105- 105376510


 
enforcement or registration of, from the receipt or perfection of a security interest under, or otherwise with respect to, any Credit Document, except any such Taxes that are Other Connection Taxes imposed with respect to an assignment (other than an assignment made pursuant to Section 2.23) (such Taxes, “Other Taxes”). (d) Tax Indemnifications. (i) Each of the Credit Parties shall, and does hereby, jointly and severally indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes (including Non-Excluded Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.20(d)(i)) payable or paid by such Administrative Agent or Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Administrative Agent or Lender, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other 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 a Credit Party by a Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (ii) Each Lender shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, (x) any Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Credit Party has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Taxes that are Non-Excluded Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Credit Parties to do so) and (y) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.6(f) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent in connection with any Credit Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, as the case may be, under this Agreement or any other Credit Document against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this Section 2.20(d)(ii). (e) Evidence of Exemption From Tax. Any Recipient that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit Document shall deliver to Company and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Recipient, if reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent as will enable Company or Administrative Agent to -106- 105376510


 
determine whether or not such Recipient 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 the following two sentences of this Section 2.20(e)) shall not be required if in the Recipient’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender or Agent to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Recipient. To the extent it is legally entitled to do so, each Non-US Lender and any Non-US Agent shall deliver to Administrative Agent and Company, on or prior to the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date (in the case of each Agent and Lender), on or prior to the date a successor Non-US Agent becomes a party under any of the Credit Documents (in the case of a successor Non-US Agent) or on or prior to the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Company or Administrative Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (i) two copies of executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W- 8ECI or W-8IMY (including therewith any withholding certificates and withholding statements required under applicable Treasury Regulations) (or any successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Agent or Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations and reasonably requested by Company to establish that such Agent or Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding or is subject to a reduced rate of deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Agent or Lender of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Credit Documents, or (ii) in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest, if such Lender is not a “bank” or other Person described in Section 881(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and cannot deliver Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI pursuant to clause (i) above, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate together with two executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations and reasonably requested by Company to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of Tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of interest payable under any of the Credit Documents. Each Lender that is organized under the laws of the United States or any State or political subdivision thereof shall, on or prior to the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof on the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date) or on or prior to the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), to the extent such Lender is legally entitled to do so, provide Administrative Agent and Company with two copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (certifying that such Person is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax) or any successor form, and each such Lender shall thereafter provide Administrative Agent and Company with such supplements and amendments thereto and such additional forms, certificates, statements or documents as may from time to time be required by applicable law. Each Agent and Lender 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 Company and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. -107- 105376510


 
(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any Lender or Agent shall become aware that it is entitled to been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of a refund in respect of Taxes paid by Company or as to which it has received additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.20(f)), it shall promptly notify Company of the availability of such refund and shall, within ninety days after receipt of a request by Company, apply for such refund at Company’s expense. If any Lender or Agent actually receives a refund in respect of any Taxes paid by Company for which it has been indemnified or as to which it has received additional amounts under this Section 2.20(f)), it shall promptly notify Company of such refund and shall, within ninety (90) days after receipt of a request by Company (or promptly upon receipt, if Company has requested application for such refund pursuant hereto), repay such refund to Company (to the extent of indemnity payments made or additional amounts that have been paid by Company under this Section 2.20(f)) with respect to such refund plus interest that is received from the relevant Governmental Authority by such Lender or Agent as part of the refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such Lender or Agent and without additional interest thereon; provided that Company, upon the request of such Lender or Agent, agrees to return such refund to such Lender or Agent (plus penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such Lender or Agent is required to repay such refund. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to Company pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Administrative Agent or Lender would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. Nothing contained in this Section 2.20(f) shall require any Lender or Agent to make available any of its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems to be confidential). (g) FATCA. Each Recipient shall deliver to Company and to Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Company and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender or Agent has complied with such Person’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.20(g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. (h) For purposes of this Section 2.20, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “law” includes FATCA. 2.21 Obligation to Mitigate. Each Lender may make any Credit Extension to the Company through any lending office of such Lender, provided that the exercise of this option shall not affect the obligation of the Company to repay the Credit Extension in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Lender (which term shall include each Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.21) agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible for administering its Loans or Letters of Credit, as the case may be, becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender -108- 105376510


 
to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Section 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (a) make, issue, fund or maintain its Credit Extensions, including any Affected Loans, through another office of such Lender, or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may in good faith deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20 would be reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Revolving Commitments, Loans or Letters of Credit through such other office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise materially adversely affect such Revolving Commitments, Loans or Letters of Credit or the interests of such Lender; provided, such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this Section 2.21 unless Company agrees to pay all incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such other office as described in clause (i) above. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by Company pursuant to this Section 2.21 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to Company (with a copy to Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 2.22 Defaulting Lenders. (a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, 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: (i) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 8 or otherwise) or received by Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.4 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize each Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.22(d); fourth, as Company may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing), 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 Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Company, to be held in a Deposit Account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize each Issuing Bank’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.22(d); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, Issuing Banks or Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, any Issuing Bank -109- 105376510


 
or Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to Company as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Company against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the applicable Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iii). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.22(a)(i) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. (ii) Certain Fees. (1) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee pursuant to Section 2.11(a) for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Company shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender); provided that such Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive fees pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(ii) for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.22(d). (2) With respect to any fees not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (1) above, Company shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans that has been reallocated to such Non- Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iii) below, (y) pay to each Issuing Bank the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to each Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee. (iii) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit and Swing Line -110- 105376510


 
Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the Revolving Exposure (as determined in accordance with clause (ii) of the definition thereof) of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment. Subject to Section 10.26, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. (iv) Cash Collateral. If the reallocation described in clause (iii) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Company shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize each Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.22(d). (b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If Company, Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender and each Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, 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 Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the applicable Commitments (without giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iii), 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 Company while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender. (c) [Reserved] (d) Cash Collateral. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one (1) Business Day following the written request of Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank (with a copy to Administrative Agent) Company shall Cash Collateralize such Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iii) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount. (i) Grant of Security Interest. Company, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each Issuing Bank, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ -111- 105376510


 
obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit, to be applied pursuant to clause (ii) below. If at any time Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, Company will, promptly upon demand by Administrative Agent, pay or provide to Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). (ii) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.22 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein. (iii) Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.22 following (x) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender) or (y) the determination by Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.22, the Person providing Cash Collateral and such Issuing Bank may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations; provided, further, that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by Company, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Credit Documents. (e) Lender Counterparties. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Lender shall not be a Lender Counterparty with respect to any Permitted Hedge Agreement or Permitted Cash Management Agreement entered into while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender. 2.23 Removal or Replacement of a Lender. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that: (a) (i) any Lender (an “Increased-Cost Lender”) shall give notice to Company that such Lender is an Affected Lender or that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under Section 2.18 (other than Section 2.18(c)), 2.19 or 2.20, (ii) the circumstances which have caused such Lender to be an Affected Lender or which entitle such Lender to receive such payments shall remain in effect, and (iii) such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five (5) Business Days after Company’s request for such withdrawal; or (b) (i) any Lender shall become and continues to be a Defaulting Lender and (ii) such Defaulting Lender shall fail to cure the default as a result of which it has become a Defaulting Lender, pursuant to Section 2.22(b), within five (5) Business Days after Company’s request that it cure such default; or (c) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 10.5(b), the consent of Requisite Lenders (or Requisite Class Lenders, -112- 105376510


 
as applicable) shall have been obtained, but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each a “Non-Consenting Lender”) whose consent is required shall not have been obtained (a “Proposed Modification”); then, with respect to each such Increased-Cost Lender, Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Lender (the “Terminated Lender”), Company may, by giving written notice to Administrative Agent and any Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign all or any part of its outstanding Loans and its Revolving Commitments, if any, in full to one or more Eligible Assignees (each a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6 and Terminated Lender shall pay any fees payable thereunder in connection with such assignment from an Increased-Cost Lender, a Non-Consenting Lender or a Defaulting Lender; provided, (1) on the date of such assignment, the Replacement Lender shall pay to Terminated Lender an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Terminated Lender, (B) an amount equal to all unreimbursed drawings that have been funded by such Terminated Lender, together with all then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time and (C) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.11; (2) on the date of such assignment, Company shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.18(c), 2.19 or 2.20; (3) in the event such Terminated Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender; (4) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.19 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.20, such assignment will result in reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; (5) Administrative Agent shall have been paid the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 10.6; and (6) such assignment does not conflict with applicable laws; provided, Company may not make such election with respect to any Terminated Lender that is also an Issuing Bank unless, prior to the effectiveness of such election, Company shall have caused each outstanding Letter of Credit issued thereby to be cancelled, fully Cash Collateralized or supported by a “back-to-back” Letter of Credit reasonably satisfactory to such Terminated Lender. In connection with any such replacement, if the replaced Lender does not execute and deliver to Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment Agreement reflecting such replacement within a period of time deemed reasonable by Administrative Agent, then such replaced Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment Agreement. Upon the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender and the termination of such Terminated Lender’s Revolving Commitments, if any, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 2.24 Incremental Facilities. (a) Company may by written notice to Administrative Agent elect to request (A) prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, an increase to the existing Revolving Commitments (such increase, the “Additional Revolving Commitments”) and/or (B) prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (the -113- 105376510


 
“Additional Term Loan Commitments”), in an amount, with respect to clauses (A) and (B) collectively, not in excess of Maximum Incremental Facilities Amount in the aggregate and not less than $10,000,000 individually (or such lesser amount which shall be approved by Administrative Agent or such lesser amount that shall constitute the difference between Maximum Incremental Facilities Amount and all such Additional Term Loan Commitments and Additional Revolving Commitments obtained prior to such date), and integral multiples of $10,000,000 in excess of that amount. Each such notice shall specify (A) the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which Company proposes that the Additional Term Loan Commitments or Additional Revolving Commitments, as applicable, shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to Administrative Agent and (B) the identity of each Lender or other Person that is an Eligible Assignee (each, an “Additional Term Loan Lender” or “Additional Revolving Lender”, as applicable) to whom Company proposes any portion of such Additional Term Loan Commitments or Additional Revolving Commitments, as applicable, be allocated and the amounts of such allocations; provided that any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the Additional Term Loan Commitments or Additional Revolving Commitments, as applicable, may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such commitment. Such Additional Term Loan Commitments or Additional Revolving Commitments shall become effective, as of such Increased Amount Date; provided that, subject to Section 1.11, (1) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such Additional Term Loan Commitments or Additional Revolving Commitments, as applicable; (2) both before and after giving effect to the making of any Additional Revolving Loan or Series of Additional Term Loans, each of the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 shall be satisfied; (3) with respect to any request for Additional Term Loan Commitments or Additional Revolving Commitments, as applicable, Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be in compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 6.7 as of the last day of the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter for which financial statements are available (after giving effect to all Additional Term Loan Commitments and Additional Revolving Commitments requested at such time); (4) the Additional Term Loan Commitments or Additional Revolving Commitments, as applicable, shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements executed and delivered by the relevant Additional Term Loan Lender and/or Additional Revolving Lender, each Credit Party and Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Sections 2.20(e) and (g); (5) Company shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.18(c) in connection with the Additional Term Loan Commitments or Additional Revolving Commitments, as applicable; and (6) Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction. Any Additional Term Loans made on an Increased Amount Date shall be designated a separate series (a “Series”) of Additional Term Loans, for all purposes of this Agreement. (b) On any Increased Amount Date on which any Additional Term Loan Commitments of any Series are effective, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each Additional Term Loan Lender of any Series shall make a Loan to Company (an “Additional Term Loan”) in an amount equal to its Additional Term Loan Commitment of such Series, and (ii) each Additional Term Loan Lender of any Series shall become a Lender -114- 105376510


 
hereunder with respect to the Additional Term Loan Commitment of such Series and the Additional Term Loans of such Series made pursuant thereto. (c) On any Increased Amount Date on which Additional Revolving Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each of the Revolving Lenders shall assign to each of the Additional Revolving Lenders, and each of the Additional Revolving Lenders shall purchase from each of the Revolving Lenders, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), such interests in the Revolving Loans outstanding on such Increased Amount Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans will be held by the existing Revolving Lenders and Additional Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such Additional Revolving Commitments to the Revolving Commitments, (ii) each Additional Revolving Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Commitment and each Loan made thereunder (an “Additional Revolving Loan”) shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Loan and (iii) each Additional Revolving Lender shall become a Lender with respect to the Additional Revolving Commitment and all matters relating thereto. (d) Administrative Agent shall notify Lenders promptly upon receipt of Company’s notice of each Increased Amount Date and in respect thereof (i) the Additional Revolving Commitments and Additional Revolving Lenders, the Series of Additional Term Loan Commitments and the Additional Term Loan Lenders of such Series, as applicable, and (ii) in the case of each notice to any Revolving Lender, the respective interests in such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loans, in each case subject to the assignments contemplated by this Section 2.24. (e) The terms and provisions of the Additional Term Loans and Additional Term Loan Commitments of any Series shall be, except as otherwise set forth herein or in the Joinder Agreement, substantially consistent with the Term Loans and Term Loan Commitments. In any event (i) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of all Additional Term Loans of any Series shall be no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of Term Loans, (ii) the applicable Additional Term Loan Maturity Date of each Series shall be no shorter than the Latest Maturity Date of the Term Loans (as determined on the date of incurrence of such Additional Term Loans) and (iii) the rate of interest applicable to the Additional Term Loans of each Series shall be determined by Company and the applicable new Lenders and shall be set forth in each applicable Joinder Agreement; provided that the interest rate margin (which shall be deemed to include all upfront fees or original issue discount (“OID”) (other than customary underwriting or arranger fees, and with respect to OID and upfront fees, determined based on an assumed four year life to maturity) or interest rate “floors” payable to all Additional Term Loan Lenders) in respect of any Additional Term Loan shall be the same as that applicable to the Term Loans, except that the interest rate margin (determined as above) in respect of any Additional Term Loan may exceed the interest rate margin (determined as above) for the Term Loans, respectively, by no more than 50 basis points, or if it does so exceed, such interest rate margin (determined as above) of the Term Loans shall be increased so that the interest rate margin (determined as above) in respect of such Additional Term Loans, is no more than 50 basis points higher than the interest rate margin (determined as above) of the Term Loans. The terms and provisions of the Additional Revolving Commitments and Additional Revolving Loans shall be -115- 105376510


 
the same (except for fees) with the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans, except as otherwise set forth herein or in the Joinder Agreement (it being acknowledged that Additional Revolving Commitments may be documented as an increase of the Revolving Commitments or as a separate class of revolving commitments). Each Joinder Agreement may, without consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of Administrative Agent, to effect the provision of this Section 2.24. 2.25 Extension Option. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement (including without limitation, Sections 2.5 and 10.5 (which provisions shall not be applicable to this Section 2.25 except as expressly provided below in this Section 2.25) or any other Credit Document, Company may at any time and from time to time request that the scheduled final maturity date of all or a portion of the Term Loans of any Class (an “Existing Term Loan Class”) be extended (any such Term Loans which have been so extended, “Extended Term Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.25. In order to establish any Extended Term Loans, Company shall provide a notice to Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Existing Term Loan Class) (a “Term Loan Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which terms shall be identical to the Term Loans of the Existing Term Loan Class from which they are to be extended except (i) the scheduled final maturity date shall be extended and all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of all or a portion of any principal amount of such Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization of principal of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Class, (ii)(A) the interest margins with respect to the Extended Term Loans may be higher or lower than the interest margins for the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Class and (B) additional fees may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Term Loans in addition to or in lieu of any increased margins contemplated by the preceding clause (A), in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment (as defined below) and (iii) the voluntary and mandatory prepayment rights of the Extended Term Loans shall be subject to the provisions set forth in Section 2.13 and Section 2.14. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Term Loans of any Existing Term Loan Class converted into Extended Term Loans pursuant to any Term Loan Extension Request. Any Extended Term Loans made pursuant to any Term Loan Extension Request shall constitute a separate Class of Term Loans from the Existing Term Loan Class of Term Loans from which they were extended. (b) Company may at any time and from time to time request that the termination date of all or a portion of the Revolving Commitments then in effect (each existing at the time of such request, an “Existing Revolving Commitment” and any related revolving loans thereunder, “Existing Revolving Loans”) be extended and the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of Revolving Loans related to such Existing Revolving Commitments (any such Existing Revolving Commitments which have been so extended, “Future Extended Revolving Commitments” and any related Loans, “Future Extended Revolving Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.25. In order to establish any Future Extended Revolving Commitments, Company shall provide a notice to Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each -116- 105376510


 
of the Lenders of the applicable class of Existing Revolving Commitments) (a “Revolving Commitment Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Future Extended Revolving Commitments to be established, which terms shall be identical to those applicable to the Existing Revolving Commitments from which they are to be extended (the “Specified Existing Revolving Commitment”) except (x) all or any of the final maturity dates of such Future Extended Revolving Loans and or all or any of the termination dates of such Future Extended Revolving Commitments may be delayed to later dates than the final termination dates of the Specified Existing Revolving Commitments and final maturity dates of the Revolving Loans related to such Specified Existing Revolving Commitments, (ii) (A) the interest margins with respect to the Future Extended Revolving Loans may be higher or lower than the interest margins for the applicable Revolving Loans related to such Specified Existing Revolving Commitments and/or (B) additional fees may be payable to the Lenders providing such Future Extended Revolving Commitments in addition to or in lieu of any increased margins contemplated by the preceding clause (A) and (iii) the Revolving Commitment fee rate with respect to the Future Extended Revolving Commitments may be higher or lower than the Commitment Fee Rate for the Specified Existing Revolving Commitment, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.25 or otherwise, (1) the borrowing and repayment (other than in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments) of Loans with respect to Revolving Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments, and (2) assignments and participations of Future Extended Revolving Commitments and Future Extended Revolving Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Revolving Commitments and the Revolving Loans related to such Commitments set forth in Section 10.6. Any Future Extended Revolving Commitments made pursuant to any Revolving Commitment Extension Request shall constitute a separate class of revolving commitments from the Specified Existing Revolving Commitments and from any other Existing Revolving Commitments (together with any other Future Extended Revolving Commitments so established on such date). (c) Company shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which Lenders under the class are requested to respond. Any Lender (an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans or Revolving Commitments subject to such Extension Request converted into Extended Term Loans, Future Extended Revolving Commitments or Future Extended Revolving Loans shall notify Administrative Agent (an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Term Loans or Revolving Commitments which it has elected to convert into Extended Term Loans, Future Extended Revolving Commitments or Future Extended Revolving Loans. In the event that the aggregate amount of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Term Loans, Future Extended Revolving Commitments or Future Extended Revolving Loans requested pursuant to the Extension Request, Term Loans or Revolving Commitments subject to Extension Elections shall be converted to Term Loans, Future Extended Revolving Commitments or Future Extended Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis based on the amount of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments included in each such Extension Election. Notwithstanding the conversion of any Existing Revolving Commitment into a Future Extended Revolving Commitment, such Future Extended Revolving Commitment shall be treated -117- 105376510


 
identically to all other Existing Revolving Commitments for purposes of the obligations of a Revolving Lender in respect of Swing Line Loans under Section 2.3 and Letters of Credit under Section 2.4, except that the applicable Extension Amendment may provide that the Swing Line Lender’s Revolving Commitment may be extended and/or the expiration of the Letter of Credit may be extended and the related obligations to make Swing Line Loans and issue Letters of Credit may be continued so long as the Swing Line Lender and/or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, have consented to such extensions (it being understood that no consent of any other Lender shall be required in connection with any such extension). (d) Extended Term Loans, Future Extended Revolving Commitments, and Future Extended Revolving Loans shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement (and notwithstanding anything to contrary set forth in Section 10.5, shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the Extending Lenders (and to the extent provided in the last sentence of Section 2.25(c), the Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender) with respect to the Extended Term Loans, Future Extended Revolving Commitments and Future Extended Revolving Loans established thereby) executed by the Credit Parties, Administrative Agent and Extending Lenders. In addition to any terms and changes required or permitted by Sections 2.25(a) and (b), each Extension Amendment in respect of Extended Term Loans shall amend the scheduled amortization payments pursuant to Section 2.12 to the existing Term Loans from which the Extended Term Loans were converted to reduce each scheduled repayment for such existing Term Loans in the same proportion as the amount of such existing Term Loans is to be reduced pursuant to such Extension Amendment (it being understood that the amount of any repayment payable with respect to any Term Loan of any Lender of such existing Term Loan that is not an Extended Term Loan shall not be reduced as a result thereof). In connection with any Extension Amendment, Company shall deliver an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent (i) as to the enforceability of such Extension Amendment, this Agreement as amended thereby, and such of the other Credit Documents (if any) as may be amended thereby (in the case of such other Credit Documents) and (ii) to the effect that such Extension Amendment, including without limitation, the Extended Term Loans, Future Extended Revolving Commitments and Future Extended Revolving Loans provided for therein, does not conflict with or violate the terms and provisions of Section 10.5 of this Agreement. (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, on any date on which any existing Term Loan or Revolving Commitments are converted to extend the related scheduled maturity date(s) in accordance with paragraphs (a) or (b) above (an “Extension Date”), (i) in the case of the existing Term Loans of each Extending Lender, the aggregate principal amount of such existing Term Loans shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Term Loans so converted by such Lender on such date, and the Extended Term Loans shall be established as a separate Class of Term Loans (together with any other Extended Term Loans so established on such date), (ii) in the case of the specified Existing Revolving Commitments of each Extending Lender, the aggregate principal amount of such specified Existing Revolving Commitments shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Future Extended Revolving Commitments so converted by such Lender on such date, and such Future Extended Revolving Commitments shall be established as a separate class of Revolving Commitments from the -118- 105376510


 
Specified Existing Revolving Commitments and from any other Existing Revolving Commitments (together with any other Future Extended Revolving Commitments so established on such date) and (iii) if, on any Extension Date, any Loans of any Extending Lender are outstanding under the applicable Specified Existing Revolving Commitments, such Loans (and any related participations) shall be deemed to be allocated as Future Extended Revolving Loans (and related participations) and Existing Revolving Loans (and related participations) in the same proportion as such Extending Lender’s Specified Existing Revolving Commitments to Future Extended Revolving Commitments.

individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 4.6 Binding Obligation. Each Credit Document has been duly executed and delivered by each Credit Party that is a party thereto and is the legally valid and binding obligation of such Credit Party, enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with its respective terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law). 4.7 Historical Financial Statements.

To Company’s and its Restricted Subsidiaries’ knowledge, there are no conditions or occurrences, including any Release, threatened Release, use, generation, storage, treatment, transportation, processing, disposal, removal or remediation of Hazardous Materials, which could reasonably be expected to form the basis of an Environmental Claim against Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Compliance with all current requirements of Environmental Law or, to Company’s and its Restricted Subsidiaries’ knowledge reasonably likely future requirements arising from (i) existing environmental regulations or (ii) environmental regulations that have been formally proposed but have not been finalized could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. 4.13 No Defaults.

Neither Company nor any Guarantor Subsidiary shall, nor shall it permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into any Hedge Agreement other than Hedge Agreements constituting Indebtedness permitted by Section 6.1(t) entered into in the ordinary course of business, and not for speculative purposes, to protect against changes in interest rates, commodity prices or foreign exchange rates. 6.14 Sanctions. No Credit Party shall, directly or indirectly, use the proceeds of any Credit Extension, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any Subsidiary, joint venture partner or other individual or entity, to fund any activities of or business with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Designated Jurisdiction, except to the extent permissible for an individual or entity required to comply with Sanctions, or in any other manner that will result in a violation by any individual or entity participating in the transaction (including any Lender, Lead Arranger, Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender) of Sanctions. 6.15 Anti-Corruption Laws.

SECTION 7. GUARANTY 7.1 Guaranty of the Obligations. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.2, Guarantors jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranty to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Beneficiaries the due and punctual payment in full of all Obligations when the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would -160- 105376510


 
become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)) (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). 7.2 Contribution by Guarantors. All Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves (collectively, the “Contributing Guarantors”), in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) under this Guaranty such that its Aggregate Payments exceeds its Fair Share as of such date, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each Contributing Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date. “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Contributing Guarantor to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors multiplied by (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under this Guaranty in respect of the obligations Guaranteed. “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under this Guaranty that would not render its obligations hereunder or thereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state law; provided, solely for purposes of calculating the “Fair Share Contribution Amount” with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this Section 7.2, any assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (1) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including, without limitation, in respect of this Section 7.2), minus (2) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor from the other Contributing Guarantors as contributions under this Section 7.2. The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor. The allocation among Contributing Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this Section 7.2 shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Contributing Guarantor hereunder. Each Guarantor is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 7.2. 7.3 Payment by Guarantors. Subject to Section 7.2, Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Beneficiary may have at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of Company to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)), Guarantors will upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in Cash, to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Beneficiaries, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all -161- 105376510


 
Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for Company’s becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against Company for such interest in the related bankruptcy case) and all other Guaranteed Obligations then owed to Beneficiaries as aforesaid. 7.4 Liability of Guarantors Absolute. Each Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees as follows: (a) this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not of collectability. This Guaranty is a primary obligation of each Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety; (b) Administrative Agent may enforce this Guaranty upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between Company and any Beneficiary with respect to the existence of such Event of Default; (c) the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Company and the obligations of any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the obligations of Company, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against Company or any of such other guarantors and whether or not Company is joined in any such action or actions; (d) payment by any Guarantor of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge any Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which has not been paid. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Administrative Agent is awarded a judgment in any suit brought to enforce any Guarantor’s covenant to pay a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, such judgment shall not be deemed to release such Guarantor from its covenant to pay the portion of the Guaranteed Obligations that is not the subject of such suit, and such judgment shall not, except to the extent satisfied by such Guarantor, limit, affect, modify or abridge any other Guarantor’s liability hereunder in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations; (e) any Beneficiary, upon such terms as it deems appropriate, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or enforceability hereof or giving rise to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination of any Guarantor’s liability hereunder, from time to time may (i) renew, extend, accelerate, increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations; (iii) request and accept other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations and take and hold security for the payment hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) release, surrender, exchange, substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guaranteed -162- 105376510


 
Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person (including any other Guarantor) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of such Beneficiary in respect hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right or remedy that such Beneficiary may have against any such security, in each case as such Beneficiary in its discretion may determine consistent herewith, the applicable Permitted Hedge Agreement, the applicable Permitted Letter of Credit or the applicable Permitted Cash Management Agreement and any applicable security agreement, including foreclosure on any such security pursuant to one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and even though such action operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against Company or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; and (vi) exercise any other rights available to it under the Credit Documents, the Permitted Hedge Agreements, the Permitted Letters of Credit or the Permitted Cash Management Agreements; and (f) this Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations), including the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not any Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (i) any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Credit Documents, the Permitted Hedge Agreements, any of the Permitted Letters of Credit, or the Permitted Cash Management Agreements, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to events of default) hereof, any of the other Credit Documents, any of the Permitted Hedge Agreements, any of the Permitted Letters of Credit, any of the Permitted Cash Management Agreements or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case whether or not in accordance with the terms hereof or such Credit Document, such Permitted Hedge Agreement, such Permitted Letter of Credit, such Permitted Cash Management Agreement or any agreement relating to such other guaranty or security; (iii) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the application of payments received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the Credit Documents, any of the Permitted Hedge Agreements, any of the Permitted Letters of Credit, any of the Permitted Cash Management Agreements or from the proceeds of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as collateral for Indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations) to the payment of Indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though any Beneficiary might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) any Beneficiary’s consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of Holding or any of its Subsidiaries and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) any -163- 105376510


 
defenses, set-offs or counterclaims which Company may allege or assert against any Beneficiary in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury; and (viii) any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. 7.5 Waivers by Guarantors. Each Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of Beneficiaries: (a) any right to require any Beneficiary, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (i) proceed against Company, any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Company, any such other guarantor or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any Deposit Account or credit on the books of any Beneficiary in favor of Company or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Beneficiary whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Company or any other Guarantor including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of Company or any other Guarantor from any cause other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon any Beneficiary’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith; (e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Beneficiary protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance hereof, notices of default hereunder, the Permitted Hedge Agreements, the Permitted Letters of Credit, the Permitted Cash Management Agreements or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to Company and notices of any of the matters referred to in Section 7.4 and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms hereof. 7.6 Guarantors’ Rights of Subrogation, Contribution, etc. Until the Termination Date, each Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Company or any other Guarantor or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including without limitation (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter -164- 105376510


 
have against Company with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that any Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against Company, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Beneficiary. In addition, until the Termination Date, each Guarantor shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution such Guarantor may have against any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations, including, without limitation, any such right of contribution as contemplated by Section 7.2. Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Guarantor may have against Company or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights any Beneficiary may have against Company, to all right, title and interest any Beneficiary may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right any Beneficiary may have against such other guarantor. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights at any time prior to the Termination Date, such amount shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof. 7.7 Subordination of Other Obligations. Any Indebtedness of Company or any Guarantor now or hereafter held by any Guarantor (the “Obligee Guarantor”) is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such Indebtedness collected or received by the Obligee Guarantor after receipt of notice of an Event of Default (which has occurred and is continuing) by Administrative Agent shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof. 7.8 Continuing Guaranty. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in effect until the Termination Date. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations. 7.9 Authority of Guarantors or Company. It is not necessary for any Beneficiary to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Guarantor or Company or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them. 7.10 Financial Condition of Company. Any Credit Extension may be made to Company or continued from time to time, any Permitted Hedge Agreements may be entered into from time to time, any Permitted Letter of Credit may be entered into from time to time, and any Permitted Cash Management Agreements may be entered into from time to time, in each case without notice to or authorization from any Guarantor regardless of the financial or other condition of Company at the time of any such grant or continuation or at the time such Permitted Hedge Agreement, such Permitted Letter of Credit or such Permitted Cash Management -165- 105376510


 
Agreement is entered into, as the case may be. No Beneficiary shall have any obligation to disclose or discuss with any Guarantor its assessment, or any Guarantor’s assessment, of the financial condition of Company. Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from Company on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of Company and its ability to perform its obligations under the Credit Documents, the Permitted Hedge Agreements, the Permitted Letters of Credit, the Permitted Cash Management Agreements and each Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of Company and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any Beneficiary to disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or conditions of Company now known or hereafter known by any Beneficiary. 7.11 Bankruptcy, etc. (a) So long as any Guaranteed Obligations remain outstanding, no Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent acting pursuant to the instructions of Requisite Lenders, commence or join with any other Person in commencing any involuntary bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency case or proceeding of or against Company or any other Guarantor. The obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or terminated by any case or proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of Company or any other Guarantor or by any defense which Company or any other Guarantor may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or administrative body resulting from any such proceeding. (b) Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that any interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which accrues after the commencement of any case or proceeding referred to in clause (a) above against Company (or, if interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of such case or proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guaranteed Obligations if such case or proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guaranteed Obligations because it is the intention of Guarantors and Beneficiaries that the Guaranteed Obligations which are guaranteed by Guarantors pursuant hereto should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order which may relieve Company of any portion of such Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantors will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar person to pay Administrative Agent, or allow the claim of Administrative Agent in respect of, any such interest accruing after the date on which such case or proceeding is commenced. (c) In the event that all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid by Company, the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) are rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from any Beneficiary as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments which are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guaranteed Obligations for all purposes hereunder. -166- 105376510


 
7.12 Discharge of Guaranty. If any Guarantor Subsidiary ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted under the Credit Documents or any Guarantor Subsidiary has been designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary pursuant to Section 5.14, the Guaranty of such Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by any Beneficiary or any other Person effective as of the time of such sale or disposition. 7.13 Reaffirmation. All rights, benefits, interests, duties, liabilities and obligations of the parties to the Collateral Documents and the agreements, documents and instruments executed and delivered in connection with the Collateral Documents are hereby confirmed, renewed, affirmed and continued by this Agreement and are expanded to secure the Obligations as defined herein. Without limitation of the foregoing, all security interests, pledges, assignments and other Liens previously granted by Company or any Guarantor, as a “Grantor”, pursuant to the Collateral Documents are confirmed, renewed, affirmed and continued by this Agreement, and all such security interests, pledges, assignments and other Liens shall remain in full force and effect as security for all Obligations (including, without, limitation, any Permitted Letters of Credit) with no change in the priority applicable thereto, in each case, subject only to Liens permitted under this Agreement. SECTION 8. EVENTS OF DEFAULT 8.1 Events of Default. If any one or more of the following conditions or events shall occur: (a) Failure to Make Payments When Due. Failure by Company to pay (i) when due any installment of principal of any Loan, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by notice of voluntary prepayment, by mandatory prepayment or otherwise; (ii) when due any amount payable to an Issuing Bank in reimbursement of any drawing under a Letter of Credit; or (iii) any interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount due hereunder within five (5) Business Days after the date due; or (b) Default in Other Agreements.

or to require the prepayment, redemption, repurchase or defeasance of, or to cause Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to make any offer to prepay, redeem, repurchase or defease that Indebtedness prior to its stated maturity or the stated maturity of any underlying obligation, as the case may be; provided that this clause (b) shall not apply to (x) secured Indebtedness that becomes due as a result of the voluntary sale or transfer of the property or assets securing such Indebtedness, if such sale or transfer is permitted hereunder and under the documents providing for such Indebtedness, or (y) Indebtedness which is convertible into common Capital Stock of Holding to the extent such Indebtedness is converted to Capital Stock of Holding in accordance with its terms and such conversion is not prohibited hereunder; or (c) Breach of Certain Covenants.

Any Credit Party shall default in the performance of or compliance with any term contained herein or any of the other Credit Documents, other than any such term referred to in any other provision of this Section 8.1, and such default shall not have been remedied or waived within thirty (30) days after receipt by Company of notice from Administrative Agent or any Lender of such default; or (f) Involuntary Bankruptcy; Appointment of Receiver, etc. (i) A court of competent jurisdiction shall enter a decree or order for relief in respect of Holding, Company, any Aggregatable Restricted Subsidiaries or any Material Restricted Subsidiary in an involuntary case under any Debtor Relief Laws now or hereafter in effect, which decree or order is not stayed; or any other similar relief shall be granted under any applicable federal or state law; or (ii) an involuntary case shall be commenced against Holding, Company, any Aggregatable Restricted Subsidiaries or any Material Restricted Subsidiary under any Debtor Relief Laws now or hereafter in effect; or a decree or order of a court having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, sequestrator, trustee, custodian or other officer having similar powers over Holding, Company, any Aggregatable Restricted Subsidiaries or any Material Restricted Subsidiary, or over all or a substantial part of its property, shall have been entered; or there shall have occurred the involuntary appointment of an interim receiver, trustee or other custodian of Holding, Company, any Aggregatable Restricted Subsidiaries or any Material Restricted Subsidiary for all or a substantial part of its property; or a warrant of attachment, execution or similar process shall have been issued against any substantial part of the property of Holding, Company, any Aggregatable Restricted Subsidiaries or any Material Restricted Subsidiary, and any such event described in this clause (ii) shall continue for sixty (60) days without having been dismissed, bonded or discharged; or (g) Voluntary Bankruptcy; Appointment of Receiver, etc. Holding, Company, any Aggregatable Restricted Subsidiaries or any Material Restricted Subsidiary shall have an -168- 105376510

The provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and neither Company nor any other Credit Party shall 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 -170- 105376510


 
Credit Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, 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. Each Co-Syndication Agent and each Co- Documentation Agent, without consent of or notice to any party hereto, may assign any and all of its rights or obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates.

Any Person serving as an 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 an Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include any Person serving as an 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 Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 9.2 Exculpatory Provisions. (a) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, and its duties hereunder and thereunder 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 or an Event of 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 Credit Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Requisite Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Credit 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 Credit 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 -171- 105376510


 
(iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company or any of their respective 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 Requisite 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 10.5 and 8.2) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Company, a Lender or an Issuing Bank. (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 Credit 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 or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Collateral Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 3 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 9.3 Reliance by Agents.

Agents 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 making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, Agents may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Bank unless Agents shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Agents may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Company), 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. 9.5 Delegation of Duties.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or any Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or any Issuing Bank in any such proceeding. The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Requisite Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Credit Party is subject, (b) at any other sale or foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law.

settlement, incurred by Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent and any Lender in enforcing any Obligations of or in collecting any payments due from any Credit Party hereunder or under the other Credit Documents by reason of such Event of Default (including in connection with the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon any of the Collateral or the enforcement of the Guaranty) or in connection with any negotiations, refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a “work-out” or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy cases or proceedings. The agreements in this Section 10.2 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 10.3 Indemnity. (a) In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to Section 10.2, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, each Credit Party agrees to defend (subject to Indemnitees’ selection of a single counsel to the Indemnitees taken as a whole (and, in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel for the affected Indemnitees, taken as a whole)), indemnify, pay promptly upon demand and hold harmless, each Agent, Lender and Issuing Bank and their Related Parties (each, an “Indemnitee”), from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, no Credit Party shall have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent (i) such Indemnified Liabilities are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court to arise from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee, (ii) such Indemnified Liabilities are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court to arise out of a breach in bad faith of any obligation of such Indemnitee under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, including but not limited to the wrongful dishonor by an Issuing Bank of a proper demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit issued by it or (iii) such Indemnified Liabilities arise out of any dispute solely among Indemnitees (other than claims against any Indemnitee in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as Agent and the other Credit Documents and other than any claims involving any act or omission on the part of Holding, Company or its Subsidiaries). To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 10.3 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, the applicable Credit Party shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them. Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.20(d), this Section 10.3(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than Taxes that represent losses, claims, damaged, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. (b) To the extent that Company for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Sections 10.2 and 10.3(a) to be paid by it to Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Issuing Banks, the Swing Line Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Issuing Banks, the Swing Line Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender); 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 Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Issuing Banks or the Swing Line Lender in its respective capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Issuing Banks or the Swing Line -183- 105376510


 
Lender in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (b) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.16. (c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Credit Party shall assert, and each Credit Party hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, arising out of, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each Credit Party hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor. No Indemnitee above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Indemnitee shall assert, and each Indemnitee hereby waives, any claim against the Credit Parties and their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, arising out of, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each Indemnitee hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor; provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Credit Parties’ indemnity obligations under the Credit Documents to the extent such special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages are included in any third party claim in connection with which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder. The agreements in this Section 10.3 shall survive the resignation of Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of Commitments and the repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 10.4 Set-Off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default each Lender and each Issuing Bank is hereby authorized by each Credit Party at any time or from time to time subject to the consent of Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), without notice to any Credit Party or to any -184- 105376510


 
other Person (other than Administrative Agent), any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party (other than Holding) against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of any Credit Party to such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder, the Letters of Credit and participations therein and under the other Credit Documents, including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected hereto, the Letters of Credit and participations therein or with any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not (a) such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder or (b) the principal of or the interest on the Loans or any amounts in respect of the Letters of Credit or any other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 2 and although such obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured; 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 Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.17 and 2.22 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent, Issuing Banks, and Lenders, and (y) Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to 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, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section 10.4 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have. 10.5 Amendments and Waivers. (a) Requisite Lenders’ Consent. Subject to Section 10.5(b) and 10.5(c), no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of the Credit Documents, or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of the Requisite Lenders; provided that any term of the Credit Documents may be amended or waived by Company and Administrative Agent (or if applicable, Collateral Agent) without the consent of any other party if that amendment or waiver is (i) to cure defects or omissions, resolve ambiguities or inconsistencies or reflect changes of a minor, technical or administrative nature in any Credit Document (in the reasonable determination of the Administrative Agent and Company); or (ii) otherwise for the benefit of all or any of the Secured Parties (in the reasonable determination of the Administrative Agent and Company). (b) Affected Lenders’ Consent. Without the written consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) that would be directly affected thereby, no amendment, modification, termination, or consent shall be effective if the effect thereof would: (i) except as permitted by Section 2.25, extend the scheduled final maturity of any Loan or Note of such Lender; (ii) waive, reduce or postpone any scheduled repayment of principal on the Term Loans under Section 2.12 due such Lender (but not prepayment); -185- 105376510


 
(iii) reduce the rate of interest on any Loan of such Lender (other than any waiver of any increase in the interest rate applicable to any Loan pursuant to Section 2.10) or any fee or other payment obligations payable hereunder to such Lender; provided that any amendment or other modification of any financial covenant definition in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest for the purpose of this clause (iii); (iv) extend the time for payment of any such interest or fees payable to such Lender under this Agreement (it being understood that the waiver of any mandatory prepayment shall not constitute an extension of any time for payment of interest or fees); (v) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or any reimbursement obligation in respect of any Letter of Credit due to such Lender; (vi) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of this Section 10.5(b) or Section 10.5(c); (vii) amend the definition of “Requisite Lenders” or “Pro Rata Share”; provided, with the consent of Requisite Lenders additional extensions of credit pursuant hereto may be included in the determination of “Requisite Lenders” or “Pro Rata Share” on substantially the same basis as the Term Loan Commitments, the Term Loan, the Revolving Commitments and the Revolving Loans are included on the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date; (viii) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under any Credit Document; or (ix) release (x) all or substantially all of the Collateral or (y) Holding or all or substantially all of the Guarantors from the Guaranty except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents.

determination of such “Requisite Class Lenders” on substantially the same basis as the Term Loan Commitments, the Term Loans, the Revolving Commitments and the Revolving Loans are included on the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date; (iv) alter the required application of any repayments or prepayments as between Classes pursuant to Section 2.15 without the consent of Requisite Class Lenders of each Class which is being allocated a lesser repayment or prepayment as a result thereof; provided, Requisite Lenders may waive, in whole or in part, any prepayment so long as the application, as between Classes, of any portion of such prepayment which is still required to be made is not altered; (v) amend Section 7.2 of the Pledge and Security Agreement or the Holding Pledge Agreement in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the consent of Requisite Class Lenders of each Class which is being allocated a lesser payment as a result thereof; (vi) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of Section 9 as the same applies to any Agent, or any other provision hereof as the same applies to the rights or obligations of any Agent, in each case without the consent of such Agent; (vii) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision hereof relating to the Letters of Credit without the consent of each Issuing Bank (but, for the avoidance of doubt, Company may amend, modify, terminate or waive any Letter of Credit or any Issuer Document issued or to be issued by an Issuing Bank with only the consent of such Issuing Bank); (viii) amend Section 1.5 or the definition of “Alternative Currency”, without the consent of each Revolving Lender. In addition, notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, (A) the Administrative Agent and Holding shall be permitted to amend any provision of any Collateral Document or the Guaranty, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to better implement the intentions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents or as required by local law to give effect to any guaranty, or to give effect to or to protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property so that the security interests comply with applicable law, and in each case, such amendments, documents and agreements shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Credit Document, and (B) any waiver or amendment in respect of this Agreement or any other Credit Document that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement or any other Credit Document of Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of a particular tranche (but not the Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of any other tranche) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Company and the requisite percentage in interest of the Lenders with respect to such tranche that would be required to consent thereto under this Section 10.5 if such Lenders were the only Lenders hereunder at the time. For the avoidance of doubt, (A) Letters of Credit and the provisions thereof may be waived, amended or modified solely in accordance with Section 2.4, (B) this Agreement may -187- 105376510

Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 10.5 shall be binding upon each Lender at the time outstanding, each future Lender and, if signed by a Credit Party, on such Credit Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) in accordance with Section 2.24 and 2.25. (e) Additional Amendments Provisions.

No Credit Party’s rights or obligations hereunder nor any interest therein may be assigned or delegated by any Credit Party without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and all Lenders. No Lender may assign, sell, participate or otherwise transfer any of its rights under the Credit Documents except as set forth in this Section 10.6 or the penultimate sentence of Section 2.23.

Administrative Agent’s Principal Office a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Company, Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall 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. The Register shall be available for inspection by Company and any Lender (solely with respect to such Lender’s Loans and Commitments), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. (c) Right to Assign. Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment or Loans (including participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) or other Obligation owing to it (provided, however, that each such assignment shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any Loan and any related Commitments) to any Person meeting the criteria of “Eligible Assignee” (subject to Section 10.6(i)) consented to by each of the Persons specified below (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed): (i) Company; provided that no consent of Company shall be required (x) in the case of any Lender, for an assignment of any Term Loan and any Term Loan Commitment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or a Related Fund, (y) if an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.1(a), (f) or (g) has occurred and is continuing or (z) in the case of any Revolving Lender, for an assignment of any Revolving Loan and any Revolving Commitment to a Revolving Lender; provided that, Company shall be deemed to have consented to such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof; (ii) Administrative Agent, except with respect to (x) an assignment of any Term Loan and any Term Loan Commitment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or a Related Fund and (y) an assignment of any Revolving Loan and any Revolving Commitment to a Revolving Lender; (iii) with respect to any proposed assignment of all or a portion of any Revolving Loan or Revolving Commitment, the Swing Line Lender; and (iv) with respect to any proposed assignment of all or a portion of any Revolving Loan or Revolving Commitment which increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding), the Issuing Banks; provided, further, each such assignment pursuant to this Section 10.6(c) shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than (A) $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by Company and Administrative Agent or as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans of the assigning Lender) with respect to the assignment of the Revolving Commitments and applicable Revolving -189- 105376510


 
Loans and (B) $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by Company and Administrative Agent or as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the Term Loan of the assigning Lender) with respect to the assignment of Term Loans. The parties hereby agree that MLPFS (but not Bank of America, N.A.) may, without notice to the Company, assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any other registered broker-dealer wholly-owned by Bank of America Corporation to which all or substantially all of Bank of America Corporation’s or any of its subsidiaries’ investment banking, commercial lending services or related businesses may be transferred following the date of this Agreement. (d) Mechanics. (i) Assignments and assumptions of Loans and Commitments shall only be effected by execution and delivery to Administrative Agent of an Assignment Agreement together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. Assignments made pursuant to the foregoing provision shall be effective as of the effective date specified in each Assignment Agreement (the “Assignment Effective Date”). Any assignee of any Lender under Section 10.6(c) (an “Assignee”) shall, if not already a Lender, deliver to Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in which the Assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about Company and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the Assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws. In connection with all assignments there shall also be delivered to Administrative Agent and Company such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to United States federal tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver pursuant to Section 2.20(e) and 2.20(g). (ii) 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 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 Company and 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 Administrative Agent, Issuing Banks, Swing Line Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full Pro Rata Share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under -190- 105376510


 
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. (e) Effect of Assignment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10.6, as of the “Assignment Effective Date” (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder to the extent of its interest in the Loans and Commitments as reflected in the Register and shall thereafter be a party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof; (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to the assignee, relinquish its rights (other than any rights which survive the termination hereof under Section 10.8) and be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto on the Assignment Effective Date; provided, anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, (y) an assigning Issuing Bank shall continue to have all rights and obligations thereof with respect to such Letters of Credit until the cancellation or expiration of such Letters of Credit and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder and (z) such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of all indemnities hereunder as specified herein with respect to matters arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender hereunder to the extent provided hereunder); 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 such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender; (iii) the Commitments shall be modified to reflect the Commitment of such assignee and any Revolving Commitment of such assigning Lender, if any; and (iv) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon Company, at its expense, shall issue and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Revolving Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with paragraph (c) 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 (f) of this Section. (f) Participations. Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or more participations to any Eligible Assignee (subject to paragraph (i) of this Section) in all or any part of its Commitments, Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) or in any other Obligation. The holder of any such participation, other than an Affiliate of the Lender granting such participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan, Note or Letter of Credit (unless such Letter of Credit is not extended beyond the Revolving Commitment Termination Date) in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the -191- 105376510


 
amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Collateral Documents (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) supporting the Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating. Company agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18(c), 2.19 and 2.20 (it being understood that the documentation required under Sections 2.20(e) and 2.20(g) shall be delivered to the Lender who sells the participation) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section; provided, (1) a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.18(c), 2.19 or 2.20 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, unless the sale of the participation to such participant is made with Company’s prior written consent or such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in any applicable law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration or application thereof, that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation, (2) a participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.20 unless such participant complies with Section 2.20 as though it were a Lender and (3) a participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.21 and 2.23 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (c) of this Section. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at Company’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Company to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.21 with respect to any participant. To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.4 as though it were a Lender, provided, such participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Company, 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 Credit 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, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Credit Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Treasury Regulations section 5f.103-1(c) or Proposed Treasury Regulations section 1.163-5(b). 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, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. (g) Certain Other Assignments. In addition to any other assignment permitted pursuant to this Section 10.6, any Lender may assign and/or pledge all or any portion of its Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to such Lender, and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender including, without limitation, any Federal Reserve Bank (or such -192- 105376510


 
central bank having supervisory jurisdiction over such Lender) or any pledge or assignment to any holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Lender as collateral security for such obligations or securities, or to any trustee for, or any other representative of, such holders as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank (or applicable regulations of such central bank having supervisory jurisdiction over such Lender); provided, no Lender, as between Company and such Lender, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge, and provided further, in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank (or such central bank having supervisory jurisdiction over such Lender), pledgee or trustee be considered to be a “Lender” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder. (h) Resignation as Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time an Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, as applicable, assigns all of its Revolving Commitment and Revolving Loans pursuant to paragraph (c) above, such Issuing Bank may, (i) upon sixty (60) days’ notice to Company and the Lenders, resign as Issuing Bank and/or (ii) upon thirty (30) days’ notice to Company, resign as Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation as Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, Company shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender which accepts such appointment hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by Company to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of such Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender. The retiring Issuing Bank shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Bank and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.4(c)). The retiring Swing Line Lender shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.3(b). Upon the appointment of and acceptance by a successor Issuing Bank and/or Swing Line Lender, (x) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be and (y) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of such retiring Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit. (i) Disqualified Lenders. No assignment or participation shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified Lender as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign or participate all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless the Company has consented to such assignment or participation in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Lender for the purpose of such assignment or participation). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee or participant that becomes a Disqualified Lender after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the -193- 105376510


 
delivery of a notice pursuant to, and/or the expiration of the notice period referred to in, the definition of “Disqualified Lender”), (x) such assignee shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender or participant and (y) the execution by the Company of an Assignment Agreement with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee no longer being considered a Disqualified Lender. Any assignment in violation of this Section 10.6(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this Section 10.6(i) shall apply: (i) If any assignment or participation is made to any Disqualified Lender without the Company’s prior written consent in violation of this Section 10.6(i), or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Lender after the applicable Trade Date, the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Lender and the Administrative Agent, (A) terminate any Revolving Commitment of such Disqualified Lender and repay all obligations of the Company owing to such Disqualified Lender in connection with such Revolving Commitment, (B) in the case of outstanding Term Loans held by Disqualified Lenders, purchase or prepay such Term Loan by paying the lowest of (x) the principal amount thereof, and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Lender paid to acquire such Term Loans, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder and/or (C) require such Disqualified Lender to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 10.6), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees at the lowest of (x) the principal amount thereof, (y) the amount that such Disqualified Lender paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder; provided that (i) to the extent not waived by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall have received the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 10.6(d) from the assignor, the assignee or otherwise and (ii) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law. (ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Disqualified Lenders (A) will not (x) have the right to receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by the Company, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B) (x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, each Disqualified Lender will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Lenders consented to such matter, and (y) for purposes of voting on any plan of reorganization or plan of liquidation pursuant to any Debtor Relief Laws (a “Plan”), each Disqualified Lender party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on such Plan, (2) if such Disqualified Lender does vote on such Plan notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar -194- 105376510


 
provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such Plan in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws) and (3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the Bankruptcy Court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2). (j) No Responsibility of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Lender or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Lender. The Administrative Agent shall have the right, and Company hereby expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent to (A) post the list of Disqualified Lenders provided by the Company and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “DQ List”) on the “private side” of the Platform and (B) provide the DQ List to each Lender requesting the same. 10.7 Independence of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists. 10.8 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. All representations, warranties and agreements made herein and in any other Credit Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof and the making of any Credit Extension. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding. Notwithstanding anything herein or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of each Credit Party set forth in Sections 2.18(c), 2.19, 2.20, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4 and the agreements of Lenders set forth in Sections 2.17, 2.20, 9.3(b) and 10.10 shall survive the payment of the Loans, the cancellation or expiration of the Letters of Credit, the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder, and the termination hereof. 10.9 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or -195- 105376510


 
privilege. The rights, powers and remedies given to each Agent and each Lender hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Credit Documents. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Credit Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Credit Documents against the Credit Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.1 for the benefit of all the Lenders and the Issuing Banks; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, (b) the Issuing Banks or the Swing Line Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Issuing Banks or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 10.4 (subject to the terms of Section 2.17), or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Credit Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, then (i) the Requisite Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.1 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.17, any Lender may, with the consent of the Requisite Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Requisite Lenders. 10.10 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. Neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Credit Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Credit Party makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent or Lenders (or to Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders), or Administrative Agent or Lenders enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred. Each Lender and Issuing Bank severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment. The obligations of the -196- 105376510


 
Lenders and Issuing Banks under the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 10.11 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.11, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited. 10.12 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights. The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder or to make payments pursuant to Section 10.3(b). Nothing contained herein or in any other Credit Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 10.3(b) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.3(b). The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt. 10.13 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Credit Document), Company and each other Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that: (i) (A) the services regarding this Agreement provided by Administrative Agent, Lead Arrangers, and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between Company, each other Credit Party and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and Administrative Agent, Lead Arrangers and the Lenders, on the other hand, (B) each of Company and each other Credit Party has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) Company and each other Credit Party is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Credit Documents; (ii) (A) Administrative Agent, Lead Arrangers and each Lender is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for Company, any other Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither Administrative Agent, Lead Arrangers nor any Lender has any obligation to Company, any other Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents; and (iii) Administrative Agent, Lead Arrangers and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad -197- 105376510


 
range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Company, the other Credit Parties and their respective Affiliates, and neither Administrative Agent, Lead Arrangers nor any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to Company, any other Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of Company and each other Credit Party hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against Administrative Agent, Lead Arrangers or any Lender with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby. 10.14 Headings. Section headings herein are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect. 10.15 APPLICABLE LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 10.16 CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY CREDIT PARTY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING HERETO OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, OR ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS, SHALL BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN THE STATE, COUNTY AND CITY OF NEW YORK. BY EXECUTING AND DELIVERING THIS AGREEMENT, EACH CREDIT PARTY, FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, IRREVOCABLY (a) ACCEPTS GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS (OTHER THAN WITH RESPECT TO ACTIONS BY ANY AGENT IN RESPECT OF RIGHTS UNDER ANY COLLATERAL DOCUMENT GOVERNED BY LAWS OTHER THAN THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR WITH RESPECT TO ANY COLLATERAL SUBJECT THERETO); (b) WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS; (c) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO THE APPLICABLE CREDIT PARTY AT ITS ADDRESS PROVIDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 10.1; (d) AGREES THAT SERVICE AS PROVIDED IN CLAUSE (c) ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER THE APPLICABLE CREDIT PARTY IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT; AND (e) AGREES AGENTS AND LENDERS RETAIN THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY CREDIT PARTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. 10.17 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR DIRECTLY OR -198- 105376510


 
INDIRECTLY ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION OR THE LENDER/BORROWER RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN ITS RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS SECTION 10.17 AND EXECUTED BY THE PARTY AGAINST WHICH ENFORCEMENT IS SOUGHT), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS HERETO OR ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE LOANS MADE HEREUNDER. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT. EACH PARTY HERETO CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OR ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER. 10.18 Confidentiality. Each Agent, Issuing Bank and Lender shall hold all non-public information regarding Company and its Subsidiaries and their businesses identified as such by Company and obtained by such Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender, as applicable, pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with such Agent’s, Issuing Bank’s or Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of such nature and in accordance with sound industry practice, it being understood and agreed by Company that, in any event, an Agent, an Issuing Bank or a Lender may make (i) disclosures of such information to Affiliates of such Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender and to its Related Parties (and to other persons authorized by a Lender or Agent to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 10.18), (ii) disclosures of such information reasonably required by any bona fide or potential assignee, transferee or participant (or, in each case, their respective financing sources) in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation by such Lender of any Loans or any participations therein or by any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) in -199- 105376510


 
Permitted Hedge Agreements, Permitted Letters of Credit and Permitted Cash Management Agreements (provided, such bona fide or potential assignee, transferee or participant and counterparties and advisors are advised of and agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.18), (iii) disclosure to any rating agency when required by it, provided that prior to any disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Credit Parties received by it from any of the Agents or any Lender, (iv) disclosures required or requested by any governmental agency or representative thereof or by the NAIC or pursuant to legal or judicial process; provided, to the extent practicable and not prohibited by law, court order or regulation, each Lender shall make reasonable efforts to notify Company of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of such Lender by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information, (v) on a confidential basis to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the credit facilities provided hereunder, (vi) with the consent of Company, (vii) to the extent such information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.18 or (y) becomes available to Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Company, (viii) to any other party hereto, and (ix) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents, and the Commitments. Unless otherwise agreed to by Company and subject to Section 10.6(j), no Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender (or any Person receiving information under this Section 10.18) shall disclose such confidential information held by it to any Disqualified Lender identified prior to such time by Company in accordance with the definition thereof. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of information as provided in this Section 10.18 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. Each Lender acknowledges that information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement or the other Credit Documents may include material non-public information concerning Company and its Affiliates and their Related Parties or their respective securities, and confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and that it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with those procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. All information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by Company or Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement or the other Credit Documents will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information about Company and its Affiliates and their Related Parties or their respective securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to Company and Administrative Agent that it -200- 105376510


 
has identified in its administrative questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. 10.19 Usury Savings Clause. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, Company shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and Company to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to Company. 10.20 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic format (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 10.21 Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto and receipt by Company and Administrative Agent of written, electronic or telephonic notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof. 10.22 Patriot Act. Each Lender and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Company that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Credit Party, which information includes the name and address of each Credit Party and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Credit Party in accordance with the Act.

The holders of Senior Indebtedness will be entitled to receive payment in full of all obligations due in respect of Senior Indebtedness (including interest after the commencement of any bankruptcy proceeding at the rate specified with respect to the Senior Indebtedness) before the holders of Subordinated Indebtedness will be entitled to receive any payment with respect to the Subordinated Indebtedness (except that holders of Subordinated Indebtedness may receive and retain Permitted Junior Securities), in the event of any distribution to creditors of the Company: (1) in a liquidation or dissolution of the Company; (2) in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding relating to the Company or its property; (3) in an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (4) in any marshaling of the Company’s assets and liabilities. The Company also may not make any payment in respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness (except in Permitted Junior Securities) if: (1) a payment default on Senior Indebtedness occurs and is continuing beyond any applicable grace period; or (2) any other default occurs and is continuing on Senior Indebtedness that SCHEDULE 6.1(w)(2) -1


 
permits holders of the Senior Indebtedness to accelerate its maturity and the trustee receives a notice of such default (a “Payment Blockage Notice”) from the Company or the holders of any Senior Indebtedness. Payments on the Subordinated Indebtedness may and will be resumed: (1) in the case of a payment default, upon the date on which such default is cured or waived; and (2) in the case of a nonpayment default, upon the earlier of the date on which such nonpayment default is cured or waived or 179 days after the date on which the applicable Payment Blockage Notice is received, unless the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness has been accelerated. No new Payment Blockage Notice may be delivered unless and until: (1) 360 days have elapsed since the delivery of the immediately prior Payment Blockage Notice; and (2) all scheduled payments of principal, interest and premium, if any, on the Subordinated Indebtedness that have come due have been paid in full in cash. No nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice to the trustee will be, or be made, the basis for a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice. If the trustee or any holder of the Subordinated Indebtedness receives a payment in respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness (except in Permitted Junior Securities) when: (1) the payment is prohibited by these subordination provisions; and (2) the trustee or the holder has actual knowledge that the payment is prohibited, the trustee or the holder, as the case may be, will hold the payment in trust for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness. Upon the proper written request of the Administrative Agent (as defined below), the trustee or the holder, as the case may be, will deliver the amounts in trust to the Administrative Agent. The Company must promptly notify holders of Senior Indebtedness if payment on the Subordinated Indebtedness is accelerated because of an event of default under the Indenture.
