Within the limits of each Lender's Commitment, amounts of Tranche A Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this Section 2.1.

(b) On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, each Tranche B Lender under the Tranche B Facility agrees to make loans (each a "Tranche B Loan") to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Revolving Credit Termination Date in Dollars in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding for all such loans by such Lender not to exceed such Tranche B Lender's Commitment; provided, however, that at no time shall each Tranche B Lender be obligated to make a Tranche B Loan in excess of such Lender's Ratable Portion of the Available Credit. Within the limits of each Tranche B Lender's Commitment, amounts of Tranche B Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this Section 2.1.

(c) Each Borrowing and repayment therefor shall be made pro rata between the Tranche A Facility and the Tranche B Facility, in accordance with each Lender's Commitment.

(a) Each Borrowing shall be made on notice given by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) (i) one Business Day, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and (ii) three Business Days, in the case of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such notice shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit C (Form of Notice of Borrowing) (a "Notice of Borrowing"), specifying (A) the date of such proposed Borrowing, (B) the aggregate amount of such proposed Borrowing, (C) whether any portion of the proposed Borrowing will be of Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, (D) the initial Interest Period or Periods for any such Eurodollar Rate Loans and (E) the Available Credit (after giving effect to the proposed Borrowing). The Revolving Loans shall be made as Base Rate Loans unless, subject to Section 2.14 (Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans), the Notice of Borrowing specifies that all or a portion thereof shall be Eurodollar Rate Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.3(a) (Swing Loans), if any Notice of Borrowing requests a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent may make a Swing Loan available to the Borrower in an aggregate amount not to exceed such proposed Borrowing, and the aggregate amount of the corresponding proposed Borrowing shall be reduced accordingly by the principal amount of such Swing Loan. Each Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and shall be allocated pro rata between the Tranche A Facility and the Tranche B Facility, in accordance with each Lender's Commitment.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any proposed Borrowing that such Lender shall not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's Ratable Portion of such Borrowing (or any portion thereof), the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such Ratable Portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with this Section 2.2 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such Ratable Portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate for the first Business Day and thereafter at the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such corresponding amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender's Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. If the Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such payment shall not relieve such Lender of any obligation it may have hereunder to the Borrower.

(c) The failure of any Lender to make the Loan or any payment required by it on the date specified (a "Non-Funding Lender"), including any payment in respect of its participation in Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations, shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations to make such Loan or payment on such date but no such other Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make a Loan or payment required under this Agreement.

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, the Swing Loan Lender may, in its sole discretion, make loans (each a "Swing Loan") otherwise available to the Borrower as part of the Facilities from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Revolving Credit Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding at any time not to exceed $50,000,000; provided, however, that, in no event, shall any Swing Loan be made in excess of the Available Credit. Each Swing Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan and shall in any event mature no later than the Revolving Credit Termination Date. Within the limits set forth in the first sentence of this clause (a), amounts of Swing Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this clause (a). Swing Loans shall be Base Rate Loans.

(b) In order to request a Swing Loan, the Borrower shall telecopy (or, if consented to by the Administrative Agent, forward by electronic mail or similar means) to the Administrative Agent a duly completed request in substantially the form of Exhibit D (Form of Swing Loan Request) (or shall make such request by telephone and promptly thereafter forward a written confirmation containing the same information), setting forth the requested amount and date of the Swing Loan (a "Swing Loan Request"), to be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day of the proposed borrowing. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Swing Loan Lender of the details of the requested Swing Loan. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Swing Loan Lender shall make a Swing Loan available to the Administrative Agent no later than 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) for any Swing Loan whose Swing Loan Request is received by the Administrative Agent prior to 3:00 p.m. on such date and, in turn, the Administrative Agent shall make such amounts available to the Borrower on the date of the relevant Swing Loan Request. The Swing Loan Lender shall not make any Swing Loan in the period commencing on the first Business Day after it receives written notice from the Administrative Agent or any Lender that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) shall not on such date be satisfied, and ending when such conditions are satisfied. The Swing Loan Lender shall not otherwise be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) have been satisfied in connection with the making of any Swing Loan.

(c) The Swing Loan Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which writing may be a telecopy or, if agreed to by the Administrative Agent, electronic mail) weekly, by no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the first Business Day of each week, of the aggregate principal amount of its Swing Loans then outstanding.

(d) The Swing Loan Lender may demand at any time that each Lender pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swing Loan Lender, in the manner provided in clause (e) below, such Lender's Ratable Portion of all or a portion of the outstanding Swing Loans, which demand shall be made through the Administrative Agent, shall be in writing and shall specify the outstanding principal amount of Swing Loans demanded to be paid.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall forward each notice referred to in clause (c) above and each demand referred to in clause (d) above to each Lender on the day such notice or such demand is received by the Administrative Agent (except that any such notice or demand received by the Administrative Agent after 4:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day or any such demand received on a day that is not a Business Day shall not be required to be forwarded to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent until the next succeeding Business Day), together with a statement prepared by the Administrative Agent specifying the amount of each Lender's Ratable Portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Swing Loans stated to be outstanding in such notice or demanded to be paid pursuant to such demand, and, notwithstanding whether or not the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) shall have been satisfied (which conditions precedent the Lenders hereby irrevocably waive), each Lender shall, before 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day next succeeding the date of such Lender's receipt of such written statement, make available to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, for the account of the Swing Loan Lender, the amount specified in such statement. Upon such payment by a Lender, such Lender shall, except as provided in clause (f) below, be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall use such funds to repay the Swing Loans to the Swing Loan Lender. To the extent that any Lender fails to make all or part of such payment available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Loan Lender, the Borrower shall repay such Swing Loan on demand.

(f) Upon the occurrence of a Default under Section 9.1(f) (Events of Default), each Lender shall acquire, without recourse or warranty, an undivided participation in each Swing Loan otherwise required to be repaid by such Lender pursuant to clause (e) above, which participation shall be in a principal amount equal to such Lender's Ratable Portion of such Swing Loan, by paying to the Swing Loan Lender on the date on which such Lender would otherwise have been required to make a payment in respect of such Swing Loan pursuant to clause (e) above, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to such Lender's Ratable Portion of such Swing Loan. If all or part of such amount is not in fact made available by such Lender to the Swing Loan Lender on such date, the Swing Loan Lender shall be entitled to recover any such unpaid amount on demand from such Lender together with interest accrued from such date at the Federal Funds Rate for the first Business Day after such payment was due and thereafter at the rate of interest then applicable to Base Rate Loans.

(g) From and after the date on which any Lender (i) is deemed to have made a Revolving Loan pursuant to clause (e) above with respect to any Swing Loan or (ii) purchases an undivided participation interest in a Swing Loan pursuant to clause (f) above, the Swing Loan Lender shall promptly distribute to such Lender such Lender's Ratable Portion of all payments of principal of and interest received by the Swing Loan Lender on account of such Swing Loan other than those received from a Lender pursuant to clause (e) or (f) above.

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, each Issuer agrees to Issue one or more Letters of Credit at the request of, and for the account of, the Borrower to support obligations of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any Permitted Joint Ventures from time to time on any Business Day during the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the earlier of the Revolving Credit Termination Date and 30 days prior to the Scheduled Termination Date; provided, however, that no Issuer shall Issue any Letter of Credit upon the occurrence of any of the following:

None of the Lenders (other than the Issuers in their capacity as such) shall have any obligation to Issue any Letter of Credit.

(b) In no event shall the expiration date of any Letter of Credit be less than five days prior to the Scheduled Termination Date; provided, however, that any Letter of Credit with a fixed term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional periods equal to such term.

(c) In connection with the Issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall give the relevant Issuer and the Administrative Agent at least two Business Days' prior written notice, in substantially the form of Exhibit E (Form of Letter of Credit Request) (or in such other written or electronic form as is acceptable to the Issuer), of the requested Issuance of such Letter of Credit (a "Letter of Credit Request"). Such notice shall be irrevocable on and after the Issuance of such Letter of Credit (and, prior to such Issuance, may be revoked only with the consent of the Issuer) and shall specify the Issuer of such Letter of Credit, the stated amount of the Letter of Credit requested, which stated amount (or, if such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in an Alternative Currency, the Dollar Equivalent of such stated amount) shall not be less than $100,000, the date of Issuance of such requested Letter of Credit, the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which date shall be a Business Day), and, in the case of an issuance, the Person for whose benefit the requested Letter of Credit is to be issued. Such notice, to be effective, must be received by the relevant Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the second Business Day prior to the requested Issuance of such Letter of Credit.

(d) Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 2.4, the relevant Issuer shall, on the requested date, Issue a Letter of Credit on behalf of the Borrower in accordance with such Issuer's usual and customary business practices. No Issuer shall Issue any Letter of Credit in the period commencing on the first Business Day after it receives written notice from the Administrative Agent or any Lender that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) shall not on such date be satisfied, and ending when such conditions are satisfied. The relevant Issuer shall not otherwise be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) have been satisfied in connection with the Issuance of any Letter of Credit.

(e) If requested by the relevant Issuer, prior to the issuance of each Letter of Credit by such Issuer, and as a condition of such Issuance and of the participation of each Lender in the Letter of Credit Obligations arising with respect thereto, the Borrower shall have delivered to such Issuer a letter of credit reimbursement agreement, in such form as the Issuer may employ in its ordinary course of business for its own account (a "Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement"), signed by the Borrower, and such other documents or items as may be required pursuant to the terms thereof. In the event of any conflict between the terms of any Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall govern.

(g) Immediately upon the issuance by an Issuer of a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, such Issuer shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Lender's Ratable Portion of the Commitments, in such Letter of Credit and the obligations of the Borrower with respect thereto (including all Letter of Credit Obligations with respect thereto) and any security therefor and guaranty pertaining thereto.

(h) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Issuer of any Letter of Credit the amount of all Reimbursement Obligations owing to such Issuer under any Letter of Credit issued for its account no later than the date (the "Reimbursement Date") that is the next succeeding Business Day after the Borrower receives written notice from such Issuer that payment has been made under such Letter of Credit, irrespective of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against such Issuer or any other Person. In the event that any Issuer makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the Borrower shall not have repaid such amount to such Issuer pursuant to this clause (h) or any such payment by the Borrower in respect thereof is rescinded or set aside for any reason, such Reimbursement Obligation shall be payable on demand with interest thereon computed (i) from the date on which such Reimbursement Obligation arose to the Reimbursement Date, at the rate of interest applicable during such period to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans and (ii) from the Reimbursement Date until the date of repayment in full, at the rate of interest applicable during such period to past due Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans during such period, and such Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, that shall promptly notify each Lender of such failure, and each Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer the amount of such Lender's Ratable Portion of such payment in Dollars (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof if such payment was made in an Alternative Currency) and in immediately available funds. If the Administrative Agent so notifies such Lender prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on any Business Day, such Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer its Ratable Portion of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in immediately available funds. Upon such payment by a Lender, such Lender shall, except during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default under Section 9.1(f) (Events of Default) and notwithstanding whether or not the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) shall have been satisfied (which conditions precedent the Lenders hereby irrevocably waive), be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower in the principal amount of such payment. Whenever any Issuer receives from the Borrower a payment of a Reimbursement Obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has received for the account of such Issuer any payment from a Lender pursuant to this clause (h), such Issuer shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each Lender, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to such Lender's Ratable Portion of the amount of such payment adjusted, if necessary, to reflect the respective amounts the Lenders have paid in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation.

(i) The Borrower's obligation to pay each Reimbursement Obligation and the obligations of the Lenders to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuers with respect to Letters of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, and irrespective of any of the following:

Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the relevant Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not put such Issuer under any resulting liability to the Borrower, any Tranche B Investor or any Lender. In determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof, the Issuer may 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, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit, the Issuer may rely exclusively on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever. Any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in any case, be deemed not to constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Issuer.

(j) If and to the extent such Lender shall not have so made its Ratable Portion of the amount of the payment required by clause (h) above available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer forthwith on demand any amount so unpaid together with interest thereon, for the first Business Day after payment was first due at the Federal Funds Rate, and thereafter until such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer, at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer its Ratable Portion of any such payment shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer its Ratable Portion of any payment on the date such payment is to be made, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuer such other Lender's Ratable Portion of any such payment.

(k) The Issuer shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of the maximum stated amount of each Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency and each obligation due with respect thereto, and a determination thereof by the Issuer shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Dollar Equivalent of each Reimbursement Obligation with respect to a drawn Letter of Credit shall be calculated on the date the Issuer pays the draw giving rise to such Reimbursement Obligation. The Issuer shall determine or redetermine the Dollar Equivalent of the maximum stated amount of each Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, as applicable, on the date of each Issuance of such Letter of Credit and on the last Business Day of each calendar month thereafter, and the Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the determination thereof. The Issuer may determine or redetermine the Dollar Equivalent of any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency at any time upon request of any Lender, Tranche B Investor or the Administrative Agent.

(a) The Borrower may, upon at least five Business Days' prior notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate in whole or reduce in part ratably the unused portions of the respective Commitments of the Lenders; provided, however, that each partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and shall be made pro rata between the Tranche A Facility and the Tranche B Facility, in accordance with each Lender's Commitment.

(b) The then current Commitments shall be reduced on each date on which a prepayment of Loans is made pursuant to Section 2.9(a) (Mandatory Prepayments) or would be required to be made had the outstanding Loans equaled the Commitments then in effect, in each case in the amount of such prepayment (or deemed prepayment) (and the Commitment of each Lender shall be reduced by its Ratable Portion of such amount). Each such reduction shall be made pro rata between the Tranche A Facility and the Tranche B Facility.

The Borrower promises to repay (in cash, in full and in immediately available funds) the entire unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans and the Swing Loans on the Scheduled Termination Date (it being understood that other provisions of this Agreement may require all or part of such Obligations to be repaid earlier). Each repayment shall be made pro rata between the Tranche A Facility and the Tranche B Facility, in accordance with each Lender's Commitment.

(a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in accordance with its usual practice in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made and, if a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable by the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower, whether such sum constitutes principal or interest (and the type of Loan to which it applies), fees, expenses or other amounts due under the Loan Documents and each Lender's share thereof, if applicable.

(c) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, in the event that any Lender requests that the Borrower execute and deliver a promissory note or notes payable to such Lender in order to evidence the Indebtedness owing to such Lender by the Borrower hereunder, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver a Note or Notes to such Lender evidencing any Loans of such Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit B (Form of Promissory Note).

The Borrower may, at any time, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans and Swing Loans in whole or in part; provided, however, that if any prepayment of any Eurodollar Rate Loan is made by the Borrower other than on the last day of an Interest Period for such Loan, the Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.14(e) (Breakage Costs); and, provided, further, that each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and shall be applied pro rata between the Tranche A Facility and the Tranche B Facility, in accordance with each Lender's Commitment. Upon the giving of such notice of prepayment, the principal amount of Revolving Loans specified to be prepaid shall become due and payable on the date specified for such prepayment.

(a) Upon receipt by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of Net Cash Proceeds arising from an Asset Sale, Property Loss Event or Equity Issuance, the Borrower shall immediately prepay the Loans (or, if there are no Loans then outstanding, provide cash collateral in respect of Letters of Credit) in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds. Any such mandatory prepayment shall be applied in accordance with clause (b) below.

(b) Any prepayments made by the Borrower required to be applied in accordance with this clause (b) shall be applied as follows: first, to repay the outstanding principal balance of the Swing Loans until such Swing Loans shall have been repaid in full; second, to repay the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans (pro rata between the Tranche A Facility and the Tranche B Facility in accordance with each Lender's Commitment) until such Revolving Loans shall have been paid in full; and then, if a Default or Event of Default shall be continuing, to provide cash collateral for any Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 9.3 (Actions in Respect of Letters of Credit) until all such Letter of Credit Obligations have been fully cash collateralized in the manner set forth therein. All repayments required to be applied in accordance with this clause (b) (other than of Net Cash Proceeds of (i) Asset Sales of the Specified Property, made in accordance with Section 8.4(d) (Sale of Assets), and (ii) unless a Default or an Event of Default shall be continuing, Equity Issuance) shall result in a permanent reduction in the Commitments to the extent provided in Section 2.5(b) (Reduction and Termination of the Commitments); provided, however, that, if such prepayment was made from the Net Cash Proceeds arising from a Reinvestment Event, the Commitments shall not be reduced by such prepayment to the extent of the Reinvestment Deferred Amount corresponding to such Reinvestment Event until the Reinvestment Prepayment Date corresponding thereto and, then, the Commitments shall be reduced only to the extent of the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount applicable to such Reinvestment Event, if any; and provided, further, that, if any Default or Event of Default occurs prior to the Reinvestment Prepayment Date with respect to such Reinvestment Event, the Commitments shall be reduced by the full Reinvestment Deferred Amount corresponding thereto.

(c) If at any time, the aggregate principal amount of Outstandings exceeds the aggregate Commitments at such time, the Borrower shall forthwith prepay the Swing Loans first and then the Revolving Loans then outstanding in an amount equal to such excess. If any such excess remains after repayment in full of the aggregate outstanding Swing Loans and Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall provide cash collateral for the Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 9.3 (Actions in Respect of Letters of Credit) in an amount equal to 105% of such excess.

(a) Rate of Interest. All Loans and the outstanding amount of all other Obligations shall bear interest, in the case of Loans, on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loans are made and, in the case of such other Obligations, from the date such other Obligations are due and payable until, in all cases, paid in full, except as otherwise provided in clause (c) below, as follows:

(b) Interest Payments. (i) Interest accrued on each Base Rate Loan shall be payable in arrears (A) on the last Business Day of each calendar month, commencing on the first such day following the making of such Base Rate Loan and (B) if not previously paid in full, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Base Rate Loan, (ii) interest accrued on each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be payable in arrears (A) on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such Loan and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day during such Interest Period occurring every three months from the first day of such Interest Period, (B) upon the payment or prepayment thereof in full or in part and (C) if not previously paid in full, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Eurodollar Rate Loan and (iii) interest accrued on the amount of all other Obligations shall be payable on demand from and after the time such Obligation becomes due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise).

(c) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified in clause (a) above or elsewhere herein, effective immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and for as long thereafter as such Event of Default shall be continuing, the principal balance of all Loans and the amount of all other Obligations then due and payable shall bear interest at a rate that is two percent per annum in excess of the rate of interest applicable to such Loans or other Obligations from time to time.

(a) The Borrower may elect (i) at any time on any Business Day to convert Base Rate Loans (other than Swing Loans) or any portion thereof to Eurodollar Rate Loans and (ii) at the end of any applicable Interest Period, to convert Eurodollar Rate Loans or any portion thereof into Base Rate Loans or to continue such Eurodollar Rate Loans or any portion thereof for an additional Interest Period; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of the Eurodollar Loans for each Interest Period must be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000. Each conversion or continuation shall be allocated among the Loans of each Lender in accordance with such Lender's Ratable Portion. Each such election shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit F (Form of Notice of Conversion or Continuation) (a "Notice of Conversion or Continuation") and shall be made by giving the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days' prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly conformed in writing) specifying, in each case, (A) the amount and type of Loan being converted or continued, (B) in the case of a conversion to or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the applicable Interest Period and (C) in the case of a conversion, the date of conversion.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion or Continuation and of the options selected therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no conversion in whole or in part of Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans, and no continuation in whole or in part of Eurodollar Rate Loans upon the expiration of any applicable Interest Period, shall be permitted at any time at which (i) a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or (ii) the continuation of, or conversion into, a Eurodollar Rate Loan would violate any provision of Section 2.14 (Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans). If, within the time period required under the terms of this Section 2.11, the Administrative Agent does not receive a Notice of Conversion or Continuation from the Borrower containing a permitted election to continue any Eurodollar Rate Loans for an additional Interest Period or to convert any such Loans, then, upon the expiration of the applicable Interest Period, such Loans shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans. Each Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be irrevocable.

(a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay a commitment fee (the "Commitment Fee") to each Lender on the actual daily amount by which the Commitment of such Lender exceeds such Lender's Ratable Portion of the sum of (i) the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans plus (ii) the outstanding amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations from the Effective Date until the Revolving Credit Termination Date at the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate, payable in arrears (A) on the last Business Day of each calendar month and (B) on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

(b) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay the following amounts with respect to Letters of Credit issued by any Issuer:

(c) Additional Fees. The Borrower has agreed to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders additional fees, the amount and dates of payment of which are embodied in the Fee Letter.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder (including fees and expenses) not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day when due, in Dollars, to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.) in immediately available funds without set-off or counterclaim. The Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter cause to be distributed immediately available funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees to the Lenders, in accordance with the application of payments set forth in clauses (e) or (f) below, as applicable, for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices; provided, however, that amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 (Capital Adequacy), Section 2.16 (Taxes) or Section 2.14(c) (Increased Costs) or (d) (Illegality) shall be paid only to any affected Lender (or, if to the Fronting Lender, only to the extent of the interest of the affected Tranche B Investor) and amounts payable with respect to Swing Loans shall be paid only to the Swing Loan Lender. Payments received by the Administrative Agent after 3:00 p.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day.

(b) All computations of interest and of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest and fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(c) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment to be made in the next calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. All repayments of any Revolving Loans shall be applied as follows: first, to repay such Loans outstanding as Base Rate Loans and then, to repay such Loans outstanding as Eurodollar Rate Loans, with those Eurodollar Rate Loans having earlier expiring Eurodollar Interest Periods being repaid prior to those having later expiring Eurodollar Interest Periods.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower to the Lenders prior to the date on which any payment is due hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate, for the first Business Day, and, thereafter, at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Subject to the provisions of clause (f) below (and except as otherwise provided in Section 2.9 (Mandatory Prepayments)), all payments and any other amounts received by the Administrative Agent from or for the benefit of the Borrower shall be applied as follows: first, to pay principal of, and interest on, any portion of the Loans the Administrative Agent may have advanced pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement on behalf of any Lender, for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower, second, to pay all other Obligations then due and payable, and third, as the Borrower so designates. Payments in respect of Swing Loans received by the Administrative Agent shall be distributed to the Swing Loan Lender; payments in respect of Revolving Loans received by the Administrative Agent shall be distributed to each Lender in accordance with such Lender's Ratable Portion of the Commitments; and all payments of fees and all other payments in respect of any other Obligation shall be allocated among such of the Lenders and Issuers as are entitled thereto and, for such payments allocated to the Lenders, in proportion to their respective Ratable Portions.

(f) The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments in respect of the Obligations and any proceeds of Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and agrees that, during such time, the Administrative Agent may, and, upon either (A) the written direction of the Requisite Lenders or (B) the acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to Section 9.2 (Remedies), shall, deliver a Blockage Notice to each Deposit Account Bank and apply all payments in respect of any Obligations and all funds on deposit in any Cash Collateral Account and all other proceeds of Collateral in the following order:

provided, however, that if sufficient funds are not available to fund all payments to be made in respect of any Obligation described in any of clauses first through eighth above, the available funds being applied with respect to any such Obligation (unless otherwise specified in such clause) shall be allocated to the payment of such Obligations ratably, based on the proportion of the Administrative Agent's and each Lender's or Issuer's interest in the aggregate outstanding Obligations described in such clauses. The order of priority set forth in clauses first through eighth above may at any time and from time to time be changed by the agreement of the Requisite Lenders without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by the Borrower, any Secured Party that is not a Lender or Issuer or by any other Person that is not a Lender or Issuer. The order of priority set forth in clauses first through fifth above may be changed only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent in addition to the Requisite Lenders.

(g) At the option of the Administrative Agent, principal on the Swing Loans, Reimbursement Obligations, interest, fees, expenses and other sums due and payable in respect of the Loans and Protective Advances may be paid from the proceeds of Swing Loans or Revolving Loans. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Swing Loan Lender to make Swing Loans pursuant to Section 2.3(a) (Swing Loans) and the Lenders to make Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.2(a) (Borrowing Procedures) from time to time in the Swing Loan Lender's or such Lender's discretion, that are in the amounts of any and all principal payable with respect to the Swing Loans and interest, fees, expenses and other sums payable in respect of the Revolving Loans, and further authorizes the Administrative Agent to give the Lenders notice of any Borrowing with respect to such Swing Loans and Revolving Loans and to distribute the proceeds of such Swing Loans and Revolving Loans to pay such amounts. The Borrower agrees that all such Swing Loans and Revolving Loans so made shall be deemed to have been requested by it (irrespective of the satisfaction of the conditions in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit), which conditions the Lenders irrevocably waive) and directs that all proceeds thereof shall be used to pay such amounts.

The Eurodollar Rate for each Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans and the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the procedures set forth in the definition of "Eurodollar Rate." The Administrative Agent's determination shall be presumed to be correct absent manifest error and shall be binding on the Borrower.

In the event that (i) the Administrative Agent determines that adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rates by reference to which the Eurodollar Rate then being determined is to be fixed or (ii) the Requisite Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period will not adequately reflect the cost to the Lenders and the Tranche B Investors of making or maintaining such Loans (or of making, maintaining or receiving the corresponding deposits evidenced by the Tranche B CDs) for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon each Eurodollar Loan shall automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period for such Loan, convert into a Base Rate Loan and the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that the Requisite Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

If at any time any Lender or Tranche B Investor determines that the introduction of, or any change in or in the interpretation of, any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements included in determining the Eurodollar Rate or the compliance by such Lender or Tranche B Investor with any guideline, request or directive from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall have the effect of increasing the cost to such Lender or Tranche B Investor of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loan or agreeing to make or making, funding, maintaining or receiving any deposit under any Tranche B CD, then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender or Tranche B Investor (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent and the Fronting Lender), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender or, in the case of a Tranche B Investor, for the account of the Fronting Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or Tranche B Investor for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost shall be, together with supporting documents, submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of a Tranche B Investor, to the Fronting Lender) by such Lender or Tranche B Investor and shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the change (or compliance) referred to in such certificate shall be retroactive, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Tranche B Investor pursuant to this clause (c) for any increased costs or reduction incurred more than 180 days prior to the date of such certificate. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or Tranche B Investor the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after its receipt of the same.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender determines that the introduction of, or any change in or in the interpretation of, any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order after the date of this Agreement shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) the obligation of such Lender to make or to continue Eurodollar Rate Loans and to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended, and each such Lender shall make a Base Rate Loan as part of any requested Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (ii) if the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans are then outstanding, the Borrower shall immediately convert each such Loan into a Base Rate Loan. If, at any time after a Lender gives notice under this Section 2.14(d), such Lender determines that it may lawfully make Eurodollar Rate Loans, such Lender shall promptly give notice of that determination to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit the notice to each other Lender. The Borrower's right to request, and such Lender's obligation, if any, to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall thereupon be restored.

In addition to all amounts required to be paid by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.10 (Interest), the Borrower shall compensate each Lender and Tranche B Investor, upon demand (which, in the case of any Tranche B Investor, shall be made through the Fronting Lender), for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender or Tranche B Investor to fund or maintain such Lender's Eurodollar Rate Loan to the Borrower or such Tranche B Investors' deposit under any Tranche B CD but excluding any loss of the Applicable Margin on the relevant Loans) that such Lender or Tranche B Investor may sustain (i) if for any reason a proposed Borrowing or continuation of, or conversion into, Eurodollar Rate Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion or Continuation given by the Borrower or in a telephonic request by it for borrowing or conversion or continuation or a successive Interest Period does not commence after notice therefor is given pursuant to Section 2.11 (Conversion/Continuation Option), (ii) if for any reason any Eurodollar Rate Loan is prepaid (including mandatorily pursuant to Section 2.9 (Mandatory Prepayments), by reason of an increase or reduction in Commitments on a date that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, (iii) as a consequence of a required conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan as a result of any of the events indicated in clause (d) above, (iv) as a consequence of any failure by the Borrower to repay Eurodollar Rate Loans when required by the terms hereof or (v) if, for any reason, the Fronting Lender is required to make any payment under any Tranche B CD or to reimburse any Tranche B Investor for any similar loss, expense or liability under any Tranche B CD. The Lender or Tranche B Investor making (in the case of a Tranche B Investor, through the Fronting Lender) demand for such compensation shall deliver to the Borrower concurrently with such demand a written statement as to such losses, expenses and liabilities, and this statement shall be conclusive as to the amount of compensation due to such Lender, absent manifest error.

If at any time any Lender or Tranche B Investor determines that (a) the introduction of, or any change in or in the interpretation of, any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order after the date of this Agreement regarding capital adequacy, (b) compliance with any such law, treaty, rule, regulation or order or (c) compliance with any guideline or request or directive from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or Tranche B Investor's (or any corporation controlling such Lender's or Tranche B Investor's) capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, under the Tranche B CDs or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender, Tranche B Investor or corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change, compliance or interpretation, then, upon demand from time to time by such Lender or, through the Fronting Lender, such Tranche B Investor (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent and, in the case of a Tranche B Investor, the Fronting Lender), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender or, in the case of a Tranche B Investor, the Fronting Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender or Tranche B Investor, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or Tranche B Investor for such reduction. A certificate as to such amounts setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such demand and a calculation for such amount, shall be submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender or Tranche B Investor and shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.16 (Taxes), any and all payments by the Borrower under each Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto and with respect to any corresponding payment that may be made by the Fronting Lender to the Tranche B Investors under the Tranche B CDs, excluding (i) in the case of each Lender and Tranche B Investor and the Administrative Agent (A) taxes measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which such Lender, Tranche B Investor or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) is organized and (B) any United States withholding taxes payable with respect to payments under the Loan Documents or the Tranche B Documents under laws (including any statute, treaty or regulation) in effect on the Effective Date (or, in the case of any Lender or Tranche B Investor that became a Lender or Tranche B Investor by assignment or transfer after the Effective Date, the effective date of such assignment or transfer) applicable to such Lender, Tranche B Investor or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be), but not excluding any United States withholding taxes payable as a result of any change in such laws occurring after the Effective Date (or the date of such assignment or transfer) and (ii) in the case of each Lender and Tranche B Investor, taxes measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it as a result of a present or former connection between such Lender or Tranche B Investor and the jurisdiction of the Government Authority imposing such tax or any taxing authority thereof or therein (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). If any Taxes shall be required by law to be deducted from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to any Lender or the Administrative Agent or in respect of any sum payable under any Tranche B Document to any Tranche B Investor, (w) the sum payable (and, in the case of any sum payable under any Tranche B Document, the corresponding sum payable by the Borrower) shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16) such Lender, Tranche B Investor or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (x) the Borrower (or, in the case of any sum payable under the Tranche B Documents, the Fronting Lender) shall make such deductions, (y) the Borrower (or, in the case of any sum payable under the Tranche B Documents, the Fronting Lender) shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and (z) the Borrower (or, in the case of any sum payable under the Tranche B Documents, the Fronting Lender) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence of such payment; provided, however, that failure of the Fronting Lender to provide such evidence shall not relieve the Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies of the United States or any political subdivision thereof or any applicable foreign jurisdiction, and all liabilities with respect thereto, in each case arising from any payment made under any Loan Document or Tranche B Document or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document or Tranche B Document (collectively, "Other Taxes").

(c) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.16 (Taxes), the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender, Tranche B Investor and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.16) paid by such Lender, Tranche B Investor or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including for penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Tranche B Investor (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor (which shall, in case of such Tranche B Investor, be made through the Fronting Lender). Such written demand shall include a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the type and amount of the indemnification payment to be made; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Tranche B Investor pursuant to this clause (c) for any Taxes or Other Taxes incurred more than 180 days (or, if such Taxes or Other Taxes are measured based on a longer fiscal period, 180 days after the end of the most recent fiscal period therefor) prior to the receipt of such written demand.

(d) Within 60 days after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.), the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or such other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 2.16 shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations, until 30 days after the expiration of the statute of limitations applicable to the collection from the relevant Lender, the relevant Tranche B Investor or the Administrative Agent of the Taxes and Other Taxes to which the obligations under this Section 2.16 relate.

(f) Prior to the Effective Date in the case of each Non-U.S. Financial Institution that is a signatory hereto or to the Tranche B CD prior to the Effective Date, and, otherwise, on the date such Non-U.S. Financial Institution becomes a Non-U.S. Financial Institution and from time to time thereafter if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, each Non-U.S. Financial Institution shall provide the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (and, if such Non-U.S. Financial Institution is a Tranche B Investor, the Fronting Lender) with two completed originals of each of the following: (i) Form W-8ECI (claiming exemption from withholding because the income is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business) (or any successor form), (ii) Form W-8BEN (claiming exemption from withholding tax under an income tax treaty) (or any successor form), (iii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Financial Institution claiming exemption under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, a Form W-8BEN (claiming exemption from withholding under the portfolio interest exemption) or any successor form or (iv) any other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the IRS certifying as to such Non-U.S. Financial Institution's entitlement to such exemption from United States withholding tax or reduced rate with respect to all payments to be made to such Non-U.S. Financial Institutions under the Loan Documents. Within a reasonable period following written request therefor from the Borrower, each Non-U.S. Financial Institution (but only as long as such Non-U.S. Financial Institution is able to do so pursuant to applicable Requirements of Law) shall provide to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, if such Non-U.S. Financial Institution is a Tranche B Investor, the Fronting Lender) such additional Forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or any successor or other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the IRS) to the extent necessary as a result of any prior form expiring or becoming inaccurate or obsolete. Unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, if applicable, the Fronting Lender) have received forms or other documents satisfactory to each of them indicating that payments under any Loan Document or, as the case may be, Tranche B Document, to or for a Non-U.S. Financial Institution are not subject to United States withholding tax or are subject to such tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent (or, if applicable, the Fronting Lender) shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable Requirements of Law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate. The fact that the Fronting Lender shall withhold and pay to the relevant taxing authority any amounts pursuant hereto shall not relieve the Borrower of any of its obligation to pay to the Fronting Lender such amounts. The Fronting Lender shall provide the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with any such form or other document received from any Non-U.S. Tranche B Investor.

(g) Each Lender or Tranche B Investor (other than a Non-U.S. Financial Institution) shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement or the first Tranche B CD executed thereby or, as the case may be, the date such Lender becomes a Lender or such Tranche B Investor becomes a Tranche B Investor, provide to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of a Tranche B Investor, the Fronting Lender) two completed original Forms W-9, unless such Lender or Tranche B Investor notifies the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of a Tranche B Investor, the Fronting Lender) that it is an "exempt recipient", as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.6049-4(c) with respect to which no withholding is required. Each Lender and Tranche B Investor (from time to time following written request therefor from the Borrower, but only for so long as such Lender or Tranche B Investor is able to do so pursuant to applicable Requirements of Law) will provide to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of a Tranche B Investor, the Fronting Lender) additional original Forms W-9 or notification of "exempt recipient" status (or any successor or other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the IRS) to the extent necessary as a result of any prior form or notification expiring or becoming inaccurate or obsolete.

(h) (i) For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrower or the Administrative Agent with the appropriate form or other document described in clause (f) or (g) above, as applicable (other than if such failure is due to a change in any applicable Requirement of Law occurring after the date on which a form originally was required to be provided, or if such form is not required under clause (g) above), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under clause (a) or (c) above with respect to Taxes imposed by reason of such failure.

(i) If any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall become aware that it (or, in the case of the Fronting Lender, any Tranche B Investor) is entitled to receive a refund in respect of Taxes or Other Taxes as to which such Lender or the Administrative Agent has received a payment from, or has been indemnified by, the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall promptly notify the Borrower of such refund and shall, within 30 days after receipt of a request by the Borrower, apply (or cause such Tranche B Investor to apply) for such refund at the sole cost and expense of the Loan Parties. If any Lender or the Administrative Agent receives a refund in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has received a payment from or has been indemnified by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall promptly notify the Borrower of such receipt and shall, within 30 days after the later of the receipt of a request by the Borrower or the receipt of such refund (unless such Lender reasonably expects that is shall be required to repay such refund to the relevant tax authority), pay the amount of such refund to the Borrower, net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender (and, in the case of the Fronting Lender, of the Tranche B Investor), without interest thereon and subject to Section 11.6 (Right of Set-off); provided, however, that the Borrower agrees to return such refund to such Lender or the Administrative Agent promptly upon receipt of written notice in the event that such Lender, the relevant Tranche B Investor or the Administrative Agent is required to repay such refund to the relevant tax authority. Nothing contained in this Section 2.16 shall require any Lender or the Administrative Agent to make available to the Borrower any tax return or any other document containing information that it (or, in the case of the Fronting Lender, the Tranche B Investor) deems to be confidential.

(j) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts which would be payable or may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

In the event that (a)(i) any Lender (other than the Fronting Lender) or Tranche B Investor makes a claim under Section 2.14(c) (Increased Costs) or 2.15 (Capital Adequacy), (ii) it becomes illegal for any Lender (other than the Fronting Lender) to continue to fund or make any Eurodollar Rate Loan and such Lender notifies the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.14(d) (Illegality), (iii) the Borrower is required to make any payment pursuant to Section 2.16 (Taxes) that is attributable to a particular Lender (other than the Fronting Lender) or Tranche B Investor, (iv) any Lender (other than the Fronting Lender) becomes a Non-Funding Lender or (v) any Tranche B Investor fails to make any payment it is required to make under any Tranche B CD, (b) in the case of clause (a)(i) above, as a consequence of increased costs in respect of which such claim is made, the effective rate of interest payable to such Lender or Tranche B Investor under this Agreement with respect to its Loans materially exceeds the effective average annual rate of interest payable to the Requisite Lenders under this Agreement and (c) Lenders holding at least 75% of the aggregate Commitments (considering, for purpose of this clause (c) that the Commitment of the Fronting Lender has been assigned to the Tranche B Investors in accordance with their Tranche B Ratable Portion) are not subject to such increased costs or illegality, payment or proceedings (any such Lender or Tranche B Investor, an "Affected Lender"), the Borrower may substitute another financial institution for such Affected Lender hereunder, upon reasonable prior written notice (which written notice must be given within 90 days following the occurrence of any of the events described in clauses (a)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above) by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Affected Lender (and, if such Affected Lender is a Tranche B Investor, the Fronting Lender) that the Borrower intends to make such substitution, which substitute financial institution (x) must be an Eligible Assignee, (y) if not a Lender, must be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and (z) if such Affected Lender is a Tranche B Investor, must be eligible under any Tranche B CD to receive an assignment of such Affected Lender's interest therein; provided, however, that, if more than one Lender or Tranche B Investor claims increased costs, illegality or right to payment arising from the same act or condition and such claims are received by the Borrower within 30 days of each other, then the Borrower may substitute all, but not (except to the extent the Borrower has already substituted one of such Affected Lenders before the Borrower's receipt of the other Affected Lenders' claim) less than all, Lenders and Tranche B Investors making such claims. In the event that the proposed substitute financial institution or other entity meets the conditions set forth in clauses (x) through (z) above and the written notice was properly issued under this Section 2.17, the Affected Lender shall sell and the substitute financial institution or other entity shall purchase, (and, if such Affected Lender is a Tranche B Investor, the Fronting Lender shall execute all documents necessary to effect such sale and substitution) all rights and claims of such Affected Lender under the Loan Documents (or, as the case may be, the Tranche B Documents), and such substitute financial institution or other entity shall assume and the Affected Lender shall be relieved of its Commitments and all other prior unperformed obligations of the Affected Lender under the Loan Documents or, as the case may be, Tranche B Documents (other than in respect of any damages (other than exemplary or punitive damages, to the extent permitted by applicable law) in respect of any such unperformed obligations). If such Affected Lender is a Lender hereunder, upon the effectiveness of such sale, purchase and assumption (that, in any event shall be conditioned upon the payment in full by the Borrower in cash of all fees, unreimbursed costs and expenses and indemnities accrued and unpaid through such effective date to such Affected Lender), the substitute financial institution or other entity shall become a "Lender" hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement having a Commitment (if applicable) in the amount of such Affected Lender's Commitment assumed by it and such Commitment (if applicable) of the Affected Lender shall be terminated; provided, however, that all indemnities under the Loan Documents and the Tranche B Documents shall continue in favor of such Affected Lender. If such Affected Lender is a Lender hereunder, it shall execute an Assignment and Acceptance to evidence such transfer; provided, however, that the failure of the Affected Lender to execute such Assignment and Acceptance shall not invalidate such assignment, and such Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to be executed upon receipt by such Affected Lender of such payment in full.

This Agreement, including the obligation of each Lender to make the Loans and the obligation of each Issuer to Issue Letters of Credit, shall not become effective until the date (the "Effective Date") on which all of the following conditions precedent are satisfied or duly waived in accordance with Section 11.1 (Amendments, Waivers, Etc.):

There shall have been paid to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Tranche B Investors, as applicable, all fees and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) due and payable on or before the Effective Date (including all such fees described in the Fee Letter).

(c) Receipt of Deposits Under Tranche B CDs. The Fronting Lender shall have received deposits from Tranche B Investors in an aggregate amount equal to the Fronting Lender's Commitment under the Tranche B Facility or, in the Fronting Lender's discretion, agreements satisfactory to the Fronting Lender to make such deposits, together with copies of all documentation related thereto in each case in form and substance satisfactory to the Fronting Lender.

(d) Surety Facilities. The Surety Facility and all Approved Additional Surety Facilities shall continue to be available to the Borrower on terms and conditions no less favorable to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders than the terms of such facilities in effect on August 28, 2003.

(e) Consents, Etc. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall have received all consents and authorizations required pursuant to any enforceable and material Contractual Obligation with any other Person and shall have obtained all consents and authorizations of, and effected all notices to and filings with, any Governmental Authority, in each case, as may be necessary to allow each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries lawfully (i) to execute, deliver and perform, in all material respects, their respective obligations hereunder and under the Tranche B Documents and the Loan Documents to which each of them, respectively, is, or shall be, a party and each other agreement or instrument to be executed and delivered by each of them, respectively, pursuant thereto or in connection therewith and (ii) to create and perfect the Liens on the Collateral to be owned by each of them in the manner and for the purpose contemplated by the Loan Documents and Tranche B Documents.

For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 3.1 (Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness), each Lender and Tranche B Investor shall be deemed to have consented to, approved, accepted or be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to the Lenders or the Tranche B Investors unless an officer of the Administrative Agent responsible for the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents shall have received notice from such Lender or Tranche B Investor prior to the initial Borrowing or Issuance hereunder specifying its objection thereto and such Lender shall not have made available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's Ratable Portion of such Borrowing, or such Tranche B Investor shall not have made its deposit with the Fronting Lender under any Tranche B CD.

The provisions of the preceding sentence are intended merely to bind the Lenders and the Issuers to a decision that may be made at the election of the Requisite Lenders, and such provisions are not intended to benefit the Borrower and do not give the Borrower the right to require the Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are met.

(b) Each Tranche B Investor agrees to indemnify the Fronting Lender and each of its Affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), from and against a portion equal to the Tranche B Ratable Portion of such Tranche B Investor of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including fees, expenses and disbursements of financial and legal advisors) of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, the Fronting Lender or any of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Tranche B Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Fronting Lender under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Tranche B Documents; provided, however, that no Tranche B Investor shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Fronting Lender's or such Affiliate's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, each Tranche B Investor agrees to reimburse the Fronting Lender promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including fees, expenses and disbursements of financial and legal advisors) incurred by the Fronting Lender in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of its rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Tranche B Documents, to the extent that the Fronting Lender is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower or any other Loan Party.

The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent's giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, selected from among the Lenders. In either case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Borrower (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Prior to any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Administrative Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. After such resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to have the benefit of this Article X as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

The Fronting Lender may at any time resign by giving written notice thereof to the Tranche B Investors and the Borrower and obtaining the consent of each Tranche B Investor. Upon any such resignation, the Tranche B Investors (acting unanimously) shall have the right to appoint a successor Fronting Lender. If no successor Fronting Lender shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Fronting Lender's giving of notice of resignation, then the Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and Tranche B Investors, appoint a successor Fronting Lender, selected from among the Tranche B Investors. In either case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of all Tranche B Investors. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Fronting Lender by a successor Fronting Lender, such successor Fronting Lender shall (a) obtain an assignment of the rights and obligations of the Fronting Lender under each Tranche B CD and (b) obtain an assignment of the Commitment of the Fronting Lender hereunder through an Assignment and Acceptance and, thereafter, shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Fronting Lender, and the retiring Fronting Lender shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Tranche B Documents. The occurrence and effectiveness of the events described in clauses (a) and (b) above shall be a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any resignation of the Fronting Lender. After any effective resignation, the retiring Fronting Lender shall continue to have the benefit of this Article X as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Fronting Lender under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Tranche B Documents.

(a) Each Lender, Tranche B Investor and each Issuer agrees that any action taken by the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Lender or the Requisite Lenders (or, where required by the express terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Tranche B Documents, and the exercise by the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Lender or the Requisite Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders, Tranche B Investors, Issuers and other Secured Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to (i) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for the Lenders and the Issuers with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection herewith and with the Collateral Documents, (ii) execute and deliver each Collateral Document and accept delivery of each such agreement delivered by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) act as collateral agent for the Lenders, the Issuers and the other Secured Parties for purposes of the perfection of all security interests and Liens created by such agreements and all other purposes stated therein, provided, however, that the Administrative Agent hereby appoints, authorizes and directs each Lender, Tranche B Investor and Issuer to act as collateral sub-agent for the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers for purposes of the perfection of all security interests and Liens with respect to the Borrower's and its Subsidiaries' respective Deposit Accounts maintained with, and cash and Cash Equivalents held by, such Lender, Tranche B Investor or such Issuer, (iv) manage, supervise and otherwise deal with the Collateral, (v) take such action as is necessary or desirable to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interests and Liens created or purported to be created by the Collateral Documents and (vi) except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms hereof, of any other Loan Document or any Tranche B Document, exercise all remedies given to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Tranche B Investors the Issuers and the other Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral under the Loan Documents and Tranche B Documents relating thereto, applicable law or otherwise.

(b) Each of the Lenders and the Issuers hereby directs, in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent to release (or, in the case of clause (ii) below, release or subordinate) any Lien held by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuers against any of the following:

Each of the Lenders and the Issuers hereby directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver or file such termination and partial release statements and do such other things as are necessary to release Liens to be released pursuant to this Section 10.8 promptly upon the effectiveness of any such release.

The benefit of the Loan Documents and of the provisions of this Agreement relating to the Collateral shall extend to and be available in respect of any Secured Obligation that is otherwise owed to Persons other than the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Tranche B Investors and the Issuers (collectively, "Related Obligations") solely on the condition and understanding, as among the Administrative Agent and all Secured Parties, that (a) the Related Obligations shall be entitled to the benefit of the Loan Documents and the Collateral to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to such extent the Administrative Agent shall hold, and have the right and power to act with respect to, the Guaranty and the Collateral on behalf of and as agent for the holders of the Related Obligations, but the Administrative Agent is otherwise acting solely as agent for the Lenders and the Issuers and shall have no fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care, duty of disclosure or other obligation whatsoever to any holder of Related Obligations, (b) all matters, acts and omissions relating in any manner to the Guaranty, the Collateral, or the omission, creation, perfection, priority, abandonment or release of any Lien, shall be governed solely by the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and no separate Lien, right, power or remedy shall arise or exist in favor of any Secured Party under any separate instrument or agreement or in respect of any Related Obligation, (c) each Secured Party shall be bound by all actions taken or omitted, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, by the Administrative Agent and the Requisite Lenders, each of whom shall be entitled to act at its sole discretion and exclusively in its own interest given its own Commitments and its own interest in the Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations and other Obligations to it arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, without any duty or liability to any other Secured Party or as to any Related Obligation and without regard to whether any Related Obligation remains outstanding or is deprived of the benefit of the Collateral or becomes unsecured or is otherwise affected or put in jeopardy thereby, (d) no holder of Related Obligations and no other Secured Party (except the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers, to the extent set forth in this Agreement) shall have any right to be notified of, or to direct, require or be heard with respect to, any action taken or omitted in respect of the Collateral or under this Agreement or the Loan Documents and (e) no holder of any Related Obligation shall exercise any right of setoff, banker's lien or similar right except as expressly provided in Section 11.6 (Right of Set-off).

(a) Each Lender hereby appoints CSFB as "Arranger." Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, CSFB is a Lender designated as "Arranger" for title purposes only and, in such capacity, shall not have any obligations or duties whatsoever under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Tranche B Document to any Loan Party, any Lender, any Tranche B Investor or any Issuer and shall not have any rights separate from its rights as a Lender, Fronting Lender or as an Administrative Agent, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. CSFB shall have, for any action or omission made in its capacity as "Arranger," the benefit of any provision of this Agreement to the same extent as if such action or omission was made in its capacity as Administrative Agent.

(b) Each Lender and each Issuer hereby appoints LaSalle Bank National Association as Documentation Agent and hereby authorizes it to act in its capacity as Documentation Agent, and each Lender and each Issuer hereby appoints Ableco Finance LLC as Syndication Agent and hereby authorizes it to act in its capacity as Syndication Agent, on behalf of such Lender and such Issuer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Documentation Agent is a Lender designated as "Documentation Agent," and the Syndication Agent is a Lender designated as "Syndication Agent," for title purposes only and in such capacity shall have no obligations, liabilities or duties whatsoever under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to any Loan Party, any Lender or any Issuer and shall have no rights separate from their respective rights as a Lender except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

(a) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document nor consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Requisite Lenders (or by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Requisite Lenders) and, in the case of any amendment, by the Borrower, and then any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by each Lender directly affected thereby and, except with respect to clause (iii), (v) or (vi), the Requisite Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent thereof), do any of the following:

and provided, further, that (u) no amendment shall be made to this clause (u), Section 8.2(i) (Liens, Etc.) or the last proviso and last sentence of Section 2.13(f) (Payments and Computations) (relating to Refinancing Loans) without the consent of the Non-Participating Lenders, (v) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by any Special Purpose Vehicle that has been granted an option pursuant to Section 11.2(f) (Assignments and Participations) affect the grant or nature of such option or the right or duties of such Special Purpose Vehicle hereunder, (w) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (x) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Fronting Lender in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, affect the rights or duties of the Fronting Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or Tranche B Documents, (y) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by such Issuer, affect the rights or duties of any Issuer under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and (z) for purposes of this clause (a) and in order to comply pursuant to each Tranche B CD with the instructions of the Tranche B Investors, the Fronting Lender may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall then be deemed irrevocable and binding for all purposes under any Loan Document or Tranche B Document), limit any of its requests, amendments, waivers, consents or agreements under the Tranche B Facility to a dollar amount lesser than its Commitment (and corresponding to the aggregate Face Amounts of the Tranche B CDs of Tranche B Investors having notified the Fronting Lender thereunder of their agreement with such request, amendment, waiver, consent or agreement) and such request, amendment, waiver, consent or agreement shall then be considered to be the request, amendment, waiver, consent or agreement of a Lender with a Commitment equal to such amount.

(b) The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the written concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender. 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 the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(c) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a "Proposed Change") requiring the consent of all affected Lenders, the consent of Requisite Lenders is obtained but the consent of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in this Section 11.1 being referred to as a "Non-Consenting Lender"), then, so long as the Administrative Agent has given such consent, at the Borrower's request, the Administrative Agent or an Eligible Assignee acceptable to the Administrative Agent shall have the right with the Administrative Agent's consent and in the Administrative Agent's sole discretion (but shall have no obligation) to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lender, and such Non-Consenting Lender agrees that it shall, upon the Administrative Agent's request, sell and assign to the Lender acting as the Administrative Agent or such Eligible Assignee, all of the Commitments and Outstandings of such Non-Consenting Lender for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by the Non-Consenting Lender and all accrued interest and fees with respect thereto (including, if such Lender is the Fronting Lender, any fee ultimately payable to any Tranche B Investor) through the date of sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance; provided, however, that the failure to execute such Assignment and Acceptance by the Non-Consenting Lender shall not invalidate such assignment, and such Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to be executed upon receipt by such Non-Consenting Lender of the proceeds of such sale and acceptance. For purposes of this clause (c), if the Fronting Lender has limited its consent to any Proposed Change to any amount lower than its Commitment under the Tranche B Facilities to comply with the instructions of the Tranche B Investors in accordance with clause (a) above then the Fronting Lender shall be a "Non-Consenting Lender" only to the extent of the excess of its Commitment hereunder over such amount, and only such excess Commitment (and the portion of the Fronting Lender's Outstandings corresponding to such excess Commitment) shall be sold and assigned to the Lender acting as Administrative Agent or such Eligible Assignee as provided in this clause (c).

(a) Each Lender (other than the Fronting Lender) may sell, transfer, negotiate or assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all of its rights and obligations with respect to the Revolving Loans, the Swing Loans and the Letters of Credit); provided, however, that (i) any such assignment shall cover the same percentage of such Lender's Outstandings and Commitment, (ii) the aggregate amount being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall (if less than the Assignor's entire interest) be an integral multiple of $1,000,000 unless such assignment is made with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or is made to a Lender or an Affiliate or an Approved Fund of a Lender and (iii) if such assignment is of any Tranche A Loan prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, unless such Eligible Assignee is a Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of a Lender, such assignment shall be subject to the prior consent of each Issuer, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (which consent shall, in each case, not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and provided, further, that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 11.2, the consent of the Borrower shall not be required for any assignment occurring (x) on or prior to the Syndication Completion Date or (y) when any Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. The Fronting Lender may sell, transfer, negotiate or assign to (A) one successor Fronting Lender pursuant to Section 10.7 (Successor Fronting Lender)) or (B) one or more Tranche B Investors that are Eligible Assignees, in each case in accordance with the relevant Tranche B CDs, all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all of its rights and obligations with respect to the Revolving Loans, the Swing Loans and the Letters of Credit); provided, however, that (x) if any such assignment shall be of the Fronting Lender's Outstandings and Commitment, such assignment shall cover the same percentage of such Lender's Outstandings and Commitment and (y) the Fronting Lender may not assign its Commitment or Outstandings hereunder except in accordance with the Tranche B CDs and (z) the aggregate amount being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall (if less than the Assignor's entire interest) be an integral multiple of $1,000,000 unless such assignment is made with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(b) The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with any Note (if the assigning Lender's Loans are evidenced by a Note) subject to such assignment and any form that the assignee under such Assignment and Acceptance may be required to deliver under Section 2.16 (Taxes). Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording (or, upon an assignment by the Fronting Lender, upon the assignment date set forth in the applicable Tranche B CD) and, other than for any assignment by the Fronting Lender or any assignment by a Lender to an Affiliate or Approved Fund of such Lender, the receipt by the Administrative Agent from the assignee of an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, (i) the assignee thereunder shall become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations under the Loan Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender, and if such Lender were an Issuer, of such Issuer hereunder and thereunder, and (ii) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto; provided, however, that, if the Lender that is the Fronting Lender also holds separate Commitments or Outstandings hereunder not in its capacity as Fronting Lender, assigning all of such separate Commitments or Outstandings or all of its Commitments and Outstandings as a Fronting Lender (but not both) shall not cause such Lender to cease to be a party hereto.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.) a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recording of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of and principal amount of the Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations owing to each Lender from time to time (the "Register"). Any assignment pursuant to this Section 11.2 shall not be effective until such assignment is recorded in the Register. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in clause (c) above, the Loans (including the Notes evidencing such Loans) are registered obligations and the right, title, and interest of the Lenders and their assignees in and to such Loans shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the Register. A Note shall only evidence the Lender's or an assignee's right title and interest in and to the related Loan, and in no event is any such Note to be considered a bearer instrument or obligation. This Section 11.2 shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in "registered form" within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and any related regulations (or any successor provisions of the Internal Revenue Code or such regulations). Solely for purposes of this and for tax purposes only, the Administrative Agent shall act as the Borrower's agent for purposes of maintaining such notations of transfer in the Register.

(e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower. Within five Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall, if requested by such assignee, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent new Notes to the order of such assignee in an amount equal to the Commitments and Loans assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the assigning Lender has surrendered any Note for exchange in connection with the assignment and has retained Commitments or Loans hereunder, new Notes to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Commitments and Loans retained by it hereunder. Such new Notes shall be dated the same date as the surrendered Notes and be in substantially the form of Exhibit B (Form of Promissory Note), as applicable.

(f) In addition to the other assignment rights provided in this Section 11.2, each Lender (other than the Fronting Lender) may (i) grant to a Special Purpose Vehicle the option to make all or any part of any Loan that such Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder and the exercise of such option by any such Special Purpose Vehicle and the making of Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy (once and to the extent that such Loans are made) the obligation of such Lender to make such Loans thereunder, provided, however, that nothing herein shall constitute a commitment or an offer to commit by such a Special Purpose Vehicle to make Loans hereunder and no such Special Purpose Vehicle shall be liable for any indemnity or other Obligation (other than the making of Loans for which such Special Purpose Vehicle shall have exercised an option, and then only in accordance with the relevant option agreement), and (ii) assign, as collateral or otherwise, any of its rights under this Agreement, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Loans) to (x) any Federal Reserve Bank pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board without notice to or consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (y) any trustee for the benefit of the holders of such Lender's Securities and (z) to any Special Purpose Vehicle to which such Lender has granted an option pursuant to clause (i) above; and provided, further, that no such assignment or grant shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder except as expressly provided in clause (i) above. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any such Special Purpose Vehicle, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, any Special Purpose Vehicle that has been granted an option pursuant to this clause (f) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or liquidation proceeding (such agreement shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations).

(g) Each Lender (other than the Fronting Lender) may sell participations to one or more Persons in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit). The terms of such participation shall not, in any event, require the participant's consent to any amendments, waivers or other modifications of any provision of any Loan Documents, the consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, or to the exercising or refraining from exercising any powers or rights such Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to enforce the obligations of the Loan Parties), except if any such amendment, waiver or other modification or consent would (i) reduce the amount, or postpone any date fixed for, any amount (whether of principal, interest or fees) payable to such participant under the Loan Documents, to which such participant would otherwise be entitled under such participation or (ii) result in the release of all or substantially all of the Collateral other than in accordance with Section 10.8(b) (Concerning the Collateral and the Collateral Documents). In the event of the sale of any participation by any such Lender, (w) such Lender's obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (x) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties for the performance of such obligations, (y) such Lender shall remain the holder of such Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement and (z) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14(d) (Illegality), 2.15 (Capital Adequacy) and 2.16 (Taxes) as if it were a Lender; provided, however, that anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower shall not, at any time, be obligated to make under Section 2.14(d) (Illegality), 2.15 (Capital Adequacy) or 2.16 (Taxes) to the participants in the rights and obligations of any Lender (together with such Lender) any payment in excess of the amount the Borrower would have been obligated to pay to such Lender in respect of such interest had such participation not been sold. In the event that any Lender sells participations in accordance with this Section 11.2(g), such Lender shall maintain a register on which it enters the name of all participants in its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (the "Participant Register"). Any participation of such Lender's rights and obligations under the Loan Documents may be effected only by the registration of such participation on the Participant Register.

(h) Any Issuer may at any time assign its rights and obligations hereunder to any other Lender (other than the Fronting Lender) by an instrument in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such Issuer and such Lender. If any Issuer ceases to be a Lender hereunder by virtue of any assignment made pursuant to this Section 11.2, then, as of the effective date of such cessation, such Issuer's obligations to Issue Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.4 (Letters of Credit) shall terminate and such Issuer shall be an Issuer hereunder only with respect to outstanding Letters of Credit issued prior to such date.

(a) The Borrower agrees upon demand to pay, or reimburse each of the Agents and Fronting Lender for, all of the Administrative Agent's and the Fronting Lender's reasonable internal and external audit, appraisal, valuation, filing, document duplication and reproduction and investigation expenses and all of the Agents' reasonable legal expenses and for all other reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of every type and nature (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of the Administrative Agent's and the Fronting Lender's counsel, Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP, local legal counsel, auditors, accountants, appraisers, printers, insurance and environmental advisors, and other consultants and agents) incurred by any Agent or the Fronting Lender in connection with any of the following: (i) the Administrative Agent's or the Fronting Lender's audit and investigation of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in connection with the preparation, negotiation or execution of any Loan Document or Tranche B Document or the Administrative Agent's or Fronting Lender's periodic audits of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, (ii) the preparation, negotiation, execution or interpretation of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the satisfaction or attempted satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III (Conditions To Loans And Letters Of Credit), any Loan Document, any Tranche B Document or any proposal letter or commitment letter issued in connection therewith, or the making of the Loans hereunder, (iii) the creation, perfection or protection of the Liens under any Loan Document (including any reasonable fees, disbursements and expenses for local counsel in various jurisdictions), (iv) the ongoing administration of this Agreement and the Loans, including consultation with attorneys in connection therewith and with respect to the Administrative Agent's and the Fronting Lender's rights and responsibilities hereunder and under the other Loan Documents or Tranche B Documents, (v) the protection, collection or enforcement of any Obligation or the enforcement of any Loan Document or Tranche B Document, (vi) the commencement, defense or intervention in any court proceeding relating in any way to the Obligations, any Loan Party, any of the Borrower's Subsidiaries, any Tranche B Document, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (vii) the response to, and preparation for, any subpoena or request for document production with which any Agent or the Fronting Lender is served or deposition or other proceeding in which any Agent or the Fronting Lender is called to testify, in each case, relating in any way to the Obligations, any Loan Party, any of the Borrower's Subsidiaries, any Tranche B Document, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (viii) any amendment, consent, waiver, assignment, restatement, or supplement to any Loan Document or Tranche B Document or the preparation, negotiation, and execution of the same.

(b) The Borrower further agrees to pay or reimburse each Agent and each of the Lenders, Tranche B Investors and Issuers upon demand (which, in the case of the Tranche B Investors, shall be made through the Fronting Lender) for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees (including allocated costs of internal counsel and costs of settlement), incurred by such Agent, such Lenders, Tranche B Investors or Issuers in connection with any of the following: (i) in enforcing any Loan Document, Tranche B Document, or any security therefor or exercising or enforcing any other right or remedy available by reason of an Event of Default, (ii) in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a "work-out" or in any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding, (iii) in commencing, defending or intervening in any litigation or in filing a petition, complaint, answer, motion or other pleadings in any legal proceeding relating to the Obligations, any Loan Party, any of the Borrower's Subsidiaries and related to or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby or by any other Loan Document or any Tranche B Document or (iv) in taking any other action in or with respect to any suit or proceeding (bankruptcy or otherwise) described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above.

(a) The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent, each Lender, Tranche B Investor and each Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates, and each of the directors, officers, employees, agents, representative, attorneys, consultants and advisors of or to any of the foregoing (including those retained in connection with the satisfaction or attempted satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III (Conditions To Loans And Letters Of Credit)) (each such Person being an "Indemnitee") from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities, obligations, losses, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, disbursements and expenses of any kind or nature (including fees, disbursements and expenses of financial and legal advisors to any such Indemnitee) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in connection with or arising out of any investigation, litigation or proceeding, whether or not any such Indemnitee is a party thereto, whether direct, indirect, or consequential and whether based on any federal, state or local law or other statutory regulation, securities or commercial law or regulation, or under common law or in equity, or on contract, tort or otherwise, in any manner relating to or arising out of any Tranche B Document, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Obligation, any Letter of Credit or any act, event or transaction related or attendant to any thereof, or the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit or in connection with any investigation of any potential matter covered hereby (collectively, the "Indemnified Matters"); provided, however, that the Borrower shall not have any obligation under this Section 11.4 to an Indemnitee with respect to any Indemnified Matter caused by or resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order. Without limiting the foregoing, "Indemnified Matters" include (i) all Environmental Liabilities and Costs arising from or connected with the past, present or future operations of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries involving any property subject to a Collateral Document, or damage to real or personal property or natural resources or harm or injury alleged to have resulted from any Release of Contaminants on, upon or into such property or any contiguous real estate, (ii) any costs or liabilities incurred in connection with any Remedial Action concerning any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) any costs or liabilities incurred in connection with any Environmental Lien and (iv) any costs or liabilities incurred in connection with any other matter under any Environmental Law, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, (49 U.S.C. § 9601 et seq.) and applicable state property transfer laws, whether, with respect to any such matter, such Indemnitee is a mortgagee pursuant to any leasehold mortgage, a mortgagee in possession, the successor in interest to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or the owner, lessee or operator of any property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries by virtue of foreclosure, except, with respect to those matters referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, to the extent (x) incurred following foreclosure by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, Tranche B Investor or any Issuer, or the Administrative Agent, any Lender, Tranche B Investor or any Issuer having become the successor in interest to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and (y) attributable solely to acts of the Administrative Agent, such Lender, Tranche B Investor or Issuer or any agent on behalf of the Administrative Agent, such Lender, Tranche B Investor or Issuer.

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify each Agent, the Lenders, Tranche B Investors and each Issuer for, and hold such Agent, the Lenders, Tranche B Investors and each Issuer harmless from and against, any and all claims for brokerage commissions, fees and other compensation made against such Agent, the Lenders, Tranche B Investors and the Issuers for any broker, finder or consultant with respect to any agreement, arrangement or understanding made by or on behalf of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Tranche B Documents.

(c) The Borrower, at the request of any Indemnitee, shall have the obligation to defend against such investigation, litigation or proceeding or requested Remedial Action and the Borrower, in any event, may participate in the defense thereof with legal counsel of the Borrower's choice. In the event that such Indemnitee requests the Borrower to defend against such investigation, litigation or proceeding or requested Remedial Action, the Borrower shall promptly do so and such Indemnitee shall have the right to have legal counsel of its choice participate in such defense. No action taken by legal counsel chosen by such Indemnitee in defending against any such investigation, litigation or proceeding or requested Remedial Action, shall vitiate or in any way impair the Borrower's obligation and duty hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnitee.

(d) The Borrower agrees that any indemnification or other protection provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to this Section 11.4) or any other Loan Document or Tranche B Document shall (i) survive payment in full of the Obligations and (ii) inure to the benefit of any Person that was at any time an Indemnitee under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or Tranche B Document.

The Borrower agrees that no Indemnitee shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to any Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective equity holders or creditors for or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, in the Tranche B Documents and in the other Loan Documents, except for direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings)) determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnitee's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees (for itself and on behalf of its Subsidiaries) not to sue upon any such claim for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default each Lender, Tranche B Investor and each Affiliate of either of them is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or Tranche B Investor or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the Obligations now or hereafter existing whether or not such Lender or Tranche B Investor shall have made any demand under this Agreement, any Tranche B Document or any other Loan Document and even though such Obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender and Tranche B Investor agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application made by such Lender or Tranche B Investor or their respective Affiliates; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section 11.6 are in addition to the other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender or Tranche B Investor may have. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 11.6 (Right of Set-off) shall not operate to authorize the set-off and application of any obligations owing under any Tranche B CD.

(a) (i) If any Tranche B Investor obtains any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off or otherwise) owing to it or the Fronting Lender, any interest thereon, fees in respect thereof or amounts due pursuant to Section 11.3 (Costs and Expenses) or 11.4 (Indemnities) (other than payments pursuant to Section 2.14 (Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans), 2.15 (Capital Adequacy) or 2.16 (Taxes)) in excess of its ratable portion (the ratio of the aggregate amount of its interest in the Tranche CD to the aggregate Commitments hereunder) of all payments of such Obligations obtained by all the Lenders, except as the result of a refinancing of the Tranche B facility, such Tranche B Investor (a "Purchasing Investor") shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders (other than the Fronting Lender) and the other Tranche B Investors (each, a "Selling Investor") such participations in their Loans or other Obligations or interest in the Tranche B CDs as shall be necessary to cause such Purchasing Investor to share the excess payment ratably with each of them.

(b) If all or any portion of any payment received by a Purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Selling Lender shall be rescinded and such Selling Lender shall repay to the Purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Selling Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Selling Lender's required repayment in relation to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the Purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered.

(c) The Borrower agrees that any Purchasing Lender so purchasing a participation from a Selling Lender pursuant to this Section 11.7 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Purchasing Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

All notices, demands, requests and other communications provided for in this Agreement (x) if made by any Tranche B Investor, shall be made through the Fronting Lender or, if expressly provided hereunder, through the Administrative Agent and (y) in any case, shall be given in writing, or, if consented to by the Administrative Agent, by any telecommunication device capable of creating a written record (including electronic mail), and addressed to the party to be notified as follows:

(c) if to any Issuer, (i) at its Domestic Lending Office, if such Issuer is a Lender or (ii) otherwise, at the Domestic Lending Office of any Lender Affiliated therewith or, in each case at any other address set forth in a notice sent to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower;

or at such other address as shall be notified in writing (x) in the case of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to the other parties and (y) in the case of all other parties, to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. All such notices and communications shall be effective upon personal delivery (if delivered by hand, including any overnight courier service), when deposited in the mails (if sent by mail), or when properly transmitted (if sent by a telecommunications device or through the Internet); provided, however, that notices and communications to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article II (The Facilities) or X (The Administrative Agent, The Fronting Lender and Other Agents) shall not be effective until received by the Administrative Agent (unless otherwise expressly provided hereunder).

No failure on the part of any Lender, Tranche B Investor, Issuer or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

(a) This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date after it shall have been executed by the Borrower, the Agents and after the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Lender and Issuer that such Lender or Issuer has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Agents, the Tranche B Investors and each Lender and Issuer and, in each case, their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders.

(b) On the Effective Date, the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety by this Agreement and the Existing Credit Agreement shall thereafter be of no further force and effect except to evidence (i) the incurrence by the Borrower of the "Obligations" under and as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement (whether or not such "Obligations" are contingent as of the Effective Date), (ii) the representations and warranties made by the Borrower prior to the Effective Date and (iii) any action or omission performed or required to be performed pursuant to such Existing Credit Agreement prior to the Effective Date (including any failure, prior to the Effective Date, to comply with the covenants contained in such Existing Credit Agreement or Collateral Agency Agreement). This Agreement is not in any way intended to constitute a novation of the obligations and liabilities existing under the Existing Credit Agreement or evidence payment of all or any portion of such obligations and liabilities.

(c) The terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Agents', the Lenders' and the Issuers' rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall apply to all of the Obligations incurred under the Existing Credit Agreement and the Notes issued thereunder.

(d) The Borrower reaffirms the Liens granted pursuant to the Loan Documents to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuers, which Liens shall continue in full force and effect during the term of this Agreement and any renewals thereof and shall continue to secure the Obligations.

(e) On and after the Effective Date, (i) all references to the Existing Credit Agreement (or to any amendment, supplement, modification or amendment and restatement thereof) in the Loan Documents (other than this Agreement) shall be deemed to refer to the Existing Credit Agreement, as amended and restated hereby, (ii) all references to any section (or subsection) of the Existing Credit Agreement in any Loan Document (but not herein) shall be amended to become, mutatis mutandis, references to the corresponding provisions of this Agreement and (iii) except as the context otherwise provides, on or after the Effective Date, all references to this Agreement herein (including for purposes of indemnification and reimbursement of fees) shall be deemed to be reference to the Existing Credit Agreement as amended and restated hereby.

(f) This amendment and restatement is limited as written and is not a consent to any other amendment, restatement or waiver, or other modification, whether or not similar and, except as expressly provided herein or in any other Loan Document, all terms and conditions of the Loan Documents remain in full force and effect unless otherwise specifically amended hereby or any other Loan Document.

This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.

(a) Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be brought, prior to the Effective Date, in the Bankruptcy Court and, at any time, in the courts of the State of New York or of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrower hereby accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably waive any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, that any of them may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such action or proceeding in such respective jurisdictions.

(b) The Borrower hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers The Corporation Service Company, 80 State Street, Albany, NY 12207 (telephone no: (800) 833-9848) (telecopy no: (518) 433-4741) (the "Process Agent"), in the case of any suit, action or proceeding brought in the United States of America as its designee, appointee and agent to receive, accept and acknowledge for and on its behalf, and in respect of its property, service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents that may be served in any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any Loan Document. Such service may be made by mailing (by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid) or delivering a copy of such process to the Borrower in care of the Process Agent at the Process Agent's above address, and the Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Process Agent to accept such service on its behalf. As an alternative method of service, the Borrower irrevocably consents to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding by the mailing (by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid) of copies of such process to the Process Agent or the Borrower at its address specified in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.). The Borrower agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(c) Nothing contained in this Section 11.12 shall affect the right of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Tranche B Investor to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any other jurisdiction.

(d) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase Dollars with such other currency at the spot rate of exchange quoted by the Administrative Agent at 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given, for the purchase of Dollars, for delivery two Business Days thereafter.

EACH AGENT AND EACH OF THE LENDERS, THE ISSUERS AND THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT.

None of the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Tranche B Investor or any Issuer shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that the Borrower makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Tranche B Investors or the Issuers or any such Person receives payment from the proceeds of the Collateral 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 or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, right and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

The section titles contained in this Agreement are and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between the parties hereto, except when used to reference such section. If a numbered reference to a clause, sub-clause or subsection hereof is immediately followed by a reference in parenthesis to the title of a section hereof containing such clause, sub-clause or subsection, the reference is only to such clause, sub-clause or subsection and not to the section generally. If a numbered reference to a section hereof is immediately followed by a reference in parenthesis to a section hereof, the title reference shall govern in case of direct conflict.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are attached to the same document. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

This Agreement, together with all of the other Loan Documents and all certificates and documents delivered hereunder or thereunder, embodies the entire agreement of the parties and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(a) Each Lender, Tranche B Investor and each Agent agree to keep information obtained by it pursuant hereto and the other Loan Documents or Tranche B Documents confidential in accordance with such Lender's, Tranche B Investor's or Agent's, as the case may be, customary practices and agrees that it shall only use such information in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and not disclose any such information other than (a) to such Lender's, Tranche B Investor's or the Agent's, as the case may be, employees, representatives and agents that are or are expected to be involved in the evaluation of such information in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and are advised of the confidential nature of such information, (b) to the extent such information presently is or hereafter becomes available to such Lender, Tranche B Investor or Agent, as the case may be, on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower, (c) to the extent disclosure is required by law, regulation or judicial order or requested or required by bank regulators or auditors or (d) to assignees, participants and Special Purpose Vehicles grantees of any option described in Section 11.2(f) (Assignments and Participations) (or potential assignees, participants or grantees) that agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 11.18.

(b) The Agents, the Lenders and the Tranche B Investors acknowledge that the Borrower and its Subsidiaries perform classified contracts funded by or for the benefit of the United States Federal government and, accordingly, neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary will be obligated to release, disclose or otherwise make available to any Agent or any Lender any classified or special nuclear material to any parties not in possession of a valid security clearance and authorized by the appropriate agency of the United States Federal government to receive such material. The Agents and the Lenders agree that in connection with any exercise of a right or remedy the United States Federal government may remove classified information or government-issued property prior to any remedial action implicating such classified information or government-issued property. Upon notice from the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders shall take such steps in accordance with this Agreement as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower to enable the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof to comply with the Foreign Ownership Control or Influence requirements of the United States Federal government imposed from time to time.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any party subject to confidentiality obligations hereunder or otherwise (and any Affiliate thereof and any employee, representative or other agent of such party or such Affiliate) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and the tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby and all material of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are or have been provided to it relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. For this purpose, the tax treatment of the transactions contemplated hereby is the purported or claimed U.S. federal tax treatment of such transactions and the tax structure of such transactions is any fact relevant to understanding the purported or claimed U.S. federal tax treatment of such transactions.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, as of the date first above written.
