Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Issuance of Senior Notes due 2031

On May 3, 2023, Six Flags Entertainment Corporation (the “Company”) issued $800,000,000 of its 7.250% Senior Notes due 2031 (the “Notes”). The offering and sale of the Notes were made only to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or, outside the United States, to persons other than “U.S. persons” pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act.

The net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes, together with other available cash, including borrowings under the Revolving Facility (as defined below), will be used to repurchase any and all of the outstanding 4.875% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) pursuant to the Company’s previously announced tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) and pay related fees and expenses.

2031 Notes Indenture

The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of May 3, 2023 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, each of the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”).

Interest and Maturity

The Notes will accrue interest at a rate of 7.250% per annum, payable in cash semi-annually, in arrears, on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2023. The Notes will mature on May 15, 2031.

Guarantees, Security and Ranking

The Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company’s current and future wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries that are borrowers under or that guarantee the Credit Facility (as defined below) or that incur or guarantee certain capital markets debt securities of the Company or any guarantor, subject to certain exceptions. The Notes and the related guarantees rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s and the guarantors’ senior indebtedness. The Notes and the related guarantees rank effectively junior to all of the Company’s and the guarantors’ secured obligations to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such obligations, including the obligations of the Company and the guarantors pursuant to their guarantees or borrowings under the Credit Facility and Six Flags Theme Parks Inc.’s 7.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2025. The Notes and the related guarantees rank senior in right of payment to any of the Company’s and the guarantors’ future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the Notes or guarantees. The Notes and the related guarantees rank structurally junior to all debt and other liabilities of the Company’s subsidiaries that are not guarantors of the Notes.

Redemption

The Company may redeem some or all of the Notes on or after May 15, 2026 at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. Prior to May 15, 2026, the Company may redeem up to 40.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 107.250%, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of redemption, with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings. In addition, the Company may, at its option, redeem some or all of the Notes prior to May 15, 2026, by paying a make-whole premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of redemption. If the Company experiences certain change of control events, holders of the Notes may require it to repurchase all or part of their Notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the repurchase date.

Restrictive Covenants

The Indenture contains restrictive covenants that limit the ability of the Company and the Company’s restricted subsidiaries to, among other things: incur additional debt or issue preferred stock; create liens; create restrictions on the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability to make payments to the Company; pay dividends and make other distributions in respect of the Company’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ capital stock; redeem or repurchase the Company’s capital stock or prepay subordinated indebtedness; make certain investments or certain other restricted payments; guarantee indebtedness; designate unrestricted subsidiaries; sell certain kinds of assets; enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; and effect mergers or consolidations. These covenants are subject to important exceptions and qualifications set forth in the Indenture. Certain of these covenants will be suspended if the Notes are assigned an investment grade rating from any two of Fitch Ratings, Inc., Standard & Poor’s Rating Services and Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and no default has occurred and is continuing.

The Notes and the related guarantees have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities or blue sky laws and foreign securities laws.

The foregoing description of the Indenture and the Notes are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of the agreements filed, respectively, as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2 hereto, and are incorporated by reference herein.

Revolving Facility Extension and Upsize

Also on May 3, 2023, the Company, Six Flags Operations Inc., Six Flags Theme Parks Inc. (the “Borrower”) and the subsidiary guarantors entered into two amendments (the “Amendments”) to their existing second amended and restated senior secured credit facility entered into on April 17, 2019 (as so amended, the “Credit Facility”), which, among other things, (i) establish a $500 million replacement revolving credit facility maturing in May 2028 (the “Revolving Facility”), refinancing the $350 million existing revolving credit commitments under the Credit Facility in full, (ii) maintain the same interest rate margins on borrowings under the Revolving Facility as are currently in effect, while reducing the fee on unused revolving commitments to 0.5%, stepping down to 0.375% upon achieving a senior secured leverage ratio of less than 1.25:1.00, (iii) replace LIBOR as the interest rate benchmark for borrowings under the Revolving Facility and the Tranche B term loan facility under the Credit Facility with Term SOFR, (iv) modify the maximum senior secured leverage ratio that the Borrower must maintain to 4.50:1.00 for the four fiscal-quarter periods ending on or about December 31, 2022, March 31, 2023, and June 30, 2023, 4.25:1.00 for the four fiscal-quarter period ending on or about September 30, 2023, and each four fiscal-quarter period thereafter through the four fiscal-quarter period ending on or about June 30, 2024, and 3.75:1.00 for the four fiscal-quarter period ending on or about September 30, 2024, and each four fiscal-quarter period thereafter, and (v) make certain other changes to the covenants and other terms of the Credit Facility.

The foregoing description of the Amendments to the Credit Facility are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of the agreements filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 hereto, and are incorporated by reference herein.

The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary) will have no further liability for the money.

If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note.

 

Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

 

Section 2.08           Outstanding Notes.

 

The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note; however, Notes held by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(a) hereof.

 

42

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser.

 

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

 

If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, by 10:00 a.m. Eastern time on a redemption date or other maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will cease to accrue interest.

 

Section 2.09           Treasury Notes.

 

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company or any Guarantor, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any Guarantor, will be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee will be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that the Trustee knows are so owned will be so disregarded.

 

Section 2.10           Temporary Notes.

 

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company will prepare and the Trustee will authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

 

Holders of temporary Notes will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture.

 

Section 2.11           Cancellation.

 

The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else will cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and will destroy canceled Notes (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all canceled Notes will be delivered to the Company. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

 

Article 3
REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT

 

Section 3.01           Notices to Trustee.

 

If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 3.07 hereof, it must furnish to the Trustee, at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, an Officer’s Certificate setting forth:

 

(a)            the clause of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur;

 

(b)            the redemption date;

 

43

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer to purchase pursuant to Article 3 or Section 4.14 hereof at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption or purchase on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate; provided that no Notes with a principal amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. In the case of a global note, an appropriate notation will be made on such Note to decrease the principal amount thereof to an amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof.

 

The Trustee will promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption or purchase and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder shall be redeemed or purchased. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.

 

Section 3.03           Notice of Redemption.

 

Subject to the provisions of Section 3.09 hereof, at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed, by electronic submission (for Notes held in book-entry form) or by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at the address of such Holder appearing in the security register or otherwise in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC, except that redemption notices may be delivered electronically or mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Articles 8 or 11 hereof.

 

The notice will identify the Notes to be redeemed and will state:

 

(a)            the redemption date;

 

(b)            the redemption price (if then determined and otherwise the method of determination);

 

(c)            if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a portion of the original Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note;

 

(d)            the name and address of the Paying Agent;

 

(e)            that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

 

(f)            Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption (except as set forth in Section 3.04 hereof);

 

44

(g)            that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

 

(h)            the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and

 

(i)             that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes.

 

At the Company’s request, the Trustee will give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; provided, however, that the Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof requests that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph.

 

Section 3.04           Effect of Notice of Redemption.

 

Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable (subject to the next succeeding sentence) on the redemption date at the redemption price. Notice of any redemption of the Notes may, at the Company’s discretion, be given prior to the completion of a corporate transaction (including an Equity Offering, an incurrence of Indebtedness, an acquisition or financing transaction or a Change of Control) and any such redemption or redemption notice may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of a related transaction (including an Equity Offering, an incurrence of Indebtedness, an acquisition or financing transaction or a Change of Control). If such redemption or purchase is so subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption or purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date, or by the redemption date as so delayed. In addition, the Company may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

 

Section 3.05           Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price.

 

Prior to 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time, on any redemption or purchase date, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent an amount of money, in immediately available funds, sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued interest, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued interest, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased.

 

If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption or purchase is not so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal is paid.

 

45

Section 3.06           Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part.

 

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Company will issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee will authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Company a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered.

(1)            at least 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes originally issued (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of any Additional Notes but excluding any Notes held by the Company and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and

 

(2)            such redemption occurs no later than the 180^th day following such Equity Offering.

 

(b)            At any time and from time to time prior to May 15, 2026, the Company may, at its option, redeem all or any portion of the Notes outstanding (which includes Additional Notes, if any) at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, such redemption date (subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive payments of interest on the related interest payment date), plus the Make Whole Amount.

 

(c)            Except pursuant to Section 3.07(a) or (b) hereof, the Notes will not be redeemable at the Company’s option prior to May 15, 2026.

 

(d)            On or after May 15, 2026, the Notes will be subject to redemption at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, upon not less than 10 days nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the applicable redemption date (subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive payments of interest on the related interest payment date), if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on May 15 of the years indicated below:

(e)            Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

 

(f)            At any time, in connection with any tender offer for the Notes, including pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.09 or Section 4.14 hereof, if Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in such tender offer and the Company, or any third party making such a tender offer in lieu of the Company, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such holders, the Company or such third party will have the right upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 15 days following such purchase date, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the price offered to each other Holder in such tender offer plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to, but not including, the date of such redemption.

The Company is not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

 

Section 3.09           Offer to Purchase by Application of Excess Proceeds.

 

In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, the Company is required to commence an offer to all Holders to purchase Notes (an “Excess Proceeds Offer”), it will follow the procedures specified below.

 

The Excess Proceeds Offer shall be made to all Holders of the Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets. The Excess Proceeds Offer will remain open for a period of at least 20 Business Days following its commencement and not more than 30 Business Days, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No later than three Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Company will apply all Excess Proceeds (the “Offer Amount”) to the purchase of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness (on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered, if applicable) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been surrendered, all Notes and other Indebtedness surrendered in response to the Excess Proceeds Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased will be made in the same manner as interest payments are made.

 

If the Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Excess Proceeds Offer.

 

47

Upon the commencement of an Excess Proceeds Offer, the Company will send, by first class mail, a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice will contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Excess Proceeds Offer. The notice, which will govern the terms of the Excess Proceeds Offer, will state:

 

(a)            that the Excess Proceeds Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.10 hereof and the length of time the Excess Proceeds Offer will remain open;

 

(b)            the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date;

 

(c)            that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment will continue to accrue interest;

 

(d)            that, unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Excess Proceeds Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date;

 

(e)            that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Excess Proceeds Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in denominations of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof;

 

(f)             that Holders electing to have Notes purchased pursuant to any Excess Proceeds Offer will be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company, a Depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date;

 

(g)            that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, electronic image scan, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased;

 

(h)            that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount, the Company will select the Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes in denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be purchased); and

 

(i)             that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer).

 

On or before the Purchase Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Excess Proceeds Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.09. The Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon written request from the Company, will authenticate and mail or deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof. The Company will publicly announce the results of the Excess Proceeds Offer on the Purchase Date.

 

48

Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.09, any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.09 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

(23)          Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries consisting of a letter of credit issued as credit support for any other Indebtedness that is permitted pursuant to another clause of this Section 4.09(b); and

(24)          Indebtedness incurred by the Partnership Parks Entities for working capital purposes in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $45.0 million at any time outstanding.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, (A) the outstanding principal amount of any item of Indebtedness shall be counted only once, and any obligation arising under any guarantee, Lien, letter of credit or similar instrument supporting such Indebtedness incurred in compliance with this Section 4.09 shall be disregarded, and (B) if an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories described in clauses (1) through (24) of Section 4.09(b) or is permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a) and also meets the criteria of one or more of the categories described in clauses (1) through (24) of Section 4.09(b), the Company may, in its sole discretion, divide and classify such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this Section 4.09 and may from time to time redivide and reclassify such item of Indebtedness in any manner in which such item could be incurred at the time of such reclassification; provided that Indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Agreement on the date of this Indenture (and any Indebtedness secured by a Lien that Refinances such Indebtedness) shall be deemed to be outstanding under clause (2) of Section 4.09(b).

61

Accrual of interest or dividends on Preferred Equity Interests, the accretion of original issue discount and the payment of interest or dividends on Preferred Equity Interests in the form of additional Indebtedness or Preferred Equity Interests of the same class will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09. Any increase in the amount of Indebtedness solely by reason of currency fluctuations will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09. A change in GAAP that results in an obligation existing at the time of such change, not previously classified as Indebtedness, becoming Indebtedness will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09.

(c)            In connection with the Company’s or a Restricted Subsidiary’s entry into an instrument containing a binding commitment in respect of any revolving Indebtedness, the Company may elect to treat all or any portion of such commitment (any such amount elected until revoked as described below, an “Elected Amount”) under any Indebtedness which is to be incurred (or any commitment in respect thereof) or secured by a Lien, as the case may be, as being incurred as of such election date, and: (i) any subsequent incurrence of Indebtedness under such commitment (so long as the total amount under such Indebtedness does not exceed the Elected Amount) shall not be deemed, for purposes of any calculation under this Indenture, to be an incurrence of additional Indebtedness or an additional Lien at such subsequent time and (ii) the Company may revoke an election of an Elected Amount at any time and, thereafter, any future drawing on such revolving Indebtedness shall be deemed an incurrence of additional Indebtedness. The amount of Indebtedness outstanding as of any date shall be:

(1)            the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount;

(2)            the principal amount thereof, in the case of any other Indebtedness;

(3)            in the case of the guarantee by the specified Person of any Indebtedness that is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included; and

(4)            in the case of Indebtedness of others guaranteed by means of a Lien on any assets of the specified Person, the lesser of

(A)            the Fair Market Value of such asset on the date on which Indebtedness is required to be determined pursuant to this Indenture; and

(B)            the amount of the Indebtedness so secured.

Indebtedness shall be calculated without giving effect to the effects of Topic No. 815 and related interpretations to the extent such effects would otherwise increase or decrease an amount of Indebtedness for any purpose under this Indenture as a result of accounting for any embedded derivatives created by the terms of such Indebtedness.

For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such Refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such Refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being Refinanced. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.09, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company and/or the Restricted Subsidiaries may incur pursuant to this Section 4.09 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being Refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such Refinancing.

62

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, (1) unsecured Indebtedness shall not be treated as subordinated or junior to Secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured or (2) senior Indebtedness shall not be treated as subordinated or junior to any other senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral or is secured by different collateral or because it is guaranteed by different obligors (or as a result of the control of remedies).

Section 4.10           Asset Sales.

(a)            The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, consummate any Asset Sale unless:

(1)            The Company (or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value (determined as of the time of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of in such Asset Sale (such Fair Market Value to be determined by an executive officer of the Company or such Subsidiary); and

(2)            At least 75% of the total consideration from such Asset Sale, together with all other Asset Sales since the date of this Indenture (on a cumulative basis) received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be consists of cash or Cash Equivalents or Marketable Securities. For purposes of this provision, each of the following shall be deemed to be cash:

(A)            the amount of any Indebtedness or other liabilities, as shown on the Company’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities or liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or the related Guarantees) that are assumed or discharged (including by a reduction in purchase price) by the transferee or purchaser of any such assets and from which the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is validly released by all creditors against further liability;

(B)            the amount of any securities, Notes or other obligations received from such transferee that are within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Sale, subject to ordinary settlement periods, converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents (to the extent of the cash actually so received);

(C)            the Fair Market Value of any assets (other than securities) received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to be used by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in a Permitted Business;

(D)            any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in an Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (D) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (i) 2.0% of the Company’s Consolidated Total Assets and (ii) $55.0 million at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration, with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value;

63

(E)            Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such Asset Sale, to the extent that the Company and each other Restricted Subsidiary are released from any guarantee of payment of such Indebtedness in connection with such Asset Sale; and

(F)            consideration consisting of long-term Indebtedness of the Company (other than Subordinated Indebtedness) received after the date of this Indenture from Persons who are not the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary which is promptly terminated or cancelled by the Company.

(b)            If the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary engages in an Asset Sale, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary shall apply an amount equal to all or any of the Net Proceeds therefrom to:

(1)            repay, redeem, prepay, repurchase or otherwise extinguish Indebtedness under any Credit Facility, and in the case of any such repayment under any revolving credit facility, effect a permanent reduction in the availability under such revolving credit facility, or repay Indebtedness (other than Disqualified Stock) of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor (other than Indebtedness owed to the Company);

(2)            (A) invest all or any part of the Net Proceeds thereof in capital expenditures or the purchase of assets to be used by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in a Permitted Business, (B) acquire all or substantially all of the assets of a Permitted Business or Equity Interests in a Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary or in a Person engaged primarily in a Permitted Business that shall become a Restricted Subsidiary immediately upon the consummation of such acquisition or (C) a combination of (A) and (B);

(3)            to fund obligations of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary under the Partnership Parks Agreements; or

(4)            any combination of the foregoing.

Pending the final application of an amount equal to any such Net Proceeds, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may temporarily reduce revolving indebtedness under a Credit Facility, if any, or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture. Any Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale that is not applied or invested (or committed pursuant to a written agreement to be applied) as provided in the preceding paragraph within 365 days after the receipt thereof and, in the case of any amount committed to a reinvestment, which are not actually so applied within 180 days following such 365-day period shall constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the cumulative amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $50.0 million aggregate amount in any fiscal year, within 30 days thereof, the Company will be obligated to make an Excess Proceeds Offer to all Holders of the Notes to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes that may be purchased out of such Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date fixed for the closing of such offer in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. To the extent the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary is required under the terms of Indebtedness of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary (other than Subordinated Indebtedness), the Company shall also make a pro rata offer to the holders of such Indebtedness (including the Notes) with such Excess Proceeds. The Company will deliver notice of such Excess Proceeds Offer electronically or by first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee and each Holder of Notes at the address of such Holder appearing in the security register or otherwise in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Asset Sale and offering to repurchase the Notes for the specified purchase price on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, pursuant to the procedures required by this Indenture and described in such notice. The Company may satisfy the foregoing obligations with respect to any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale by making an Excess Proceeds Offer with respect to all Net Proceeds prior to the expiration of the relevant 450 days (or such longer period provided above) or with respect to any unapplied Excess Proceeds.

64

To the extent that any portion of Net Proceeds payable in respect of the Notes is denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the amount thereof payable in respect of the Notes shall not exceed the net amount of funds in U.S. dollars that is actually received by the Company upon converting such portion into U.S. dollars. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other parity Indebtedness surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the amount of such Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (except that any Notes represented by a note in global form will be selected by such method as DTC may require), based on the amounts tendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes in denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be purchased). To the extent that the principal amount of Notes tendered pursuant to an Excess Proceeds Offer is less than the amount of such Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes in compliance with the provisions of this Indenture. Upon completion of an Excess Proceeds Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. Additionally, the Company may, at its option, make an Excess Proceeds Offer using proceeds from any Asset Sale at any time after the consummation of such Asset Sale. Upon consummation or expiration of any Excess Proceeds Offer, any remaining Net Proceeds shall not be deemed Excess Proceeds and the Company may use such Net Proceeds for any purpose not prohibited by this Indenture.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 4.10, (i) to the extent that any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale by a Foreign Subsidiary (a “Foreign Disposition”) is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Net Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied in compliance with this covenant so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law, documents or agreements or impediment will not permit repatriation to the United States (the Company hereby agreeing to use reasonable efforts (as determined in the Company’s reasonable business judgment) to otherwise cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to within one year following the date on which the respective payment would otherwise have been required, promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law, applicable organizational impediments or other impediment to permit such repatriation), and if within one year following the date on which the respective payment would otherwise have been required, such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds is permitted under the applicable local law, applicable organizational impediment or other impediment, such repatriated Net Proceeds will be promptly (and in any event not later than five (5) Business Days after such repatriation could be made) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) (whether or not repatriation actually occurs) in compliance with this covenant and (ii) to the extent that the Company has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition would have an adverse tax consequence (which for the avoidance of doubt, includes, but is not limited to, any prepayment whereby doing so the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or any of their respective Affiliates and/or equity owners would incur a tax liability, including a taxable dividend, deemed dividend pursuant to Code Section 956 or a withholding tax), the Net Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied in compliance with this covenant. The non-application of any prepayment amounts as a consequence of the foregoing provisions will not, for the avoidance of doubt, constitute a Default or an Event of Default.

65

The Company will be required to comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of the Notes required in the event of an Excess Proceeds Offer and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under Section 3.09 hereof as a result thereof.

The provisions of this Indenture relative to the Company’s obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Notes as a result of an Asset Sale may be waived or modified with the written consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes.

Section 4.11           Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates.

(a)            The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, make any payment to or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Company’s or their properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into any contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (including any Unrestricted Subsidiary) (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate consideration in excess of $15.0 million, unless:

(1)            such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable, taken as a whole, to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that could have been obtained in a comparable transaction at the time by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person, as determined in good faith by senior management of the Company; and

(10)          transactions in which the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, deliver to the Trustee a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of this Section 4.11;

(11)          transactions with joint ventures or Unrestricted Subsidiaries entered into in the ordinary course of business;

67

(17)          (i) investments by Affiliates in securities of the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries (and payment of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such Affiliates in connection therewith) so long as the investment is being offered by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary generally to other non-affiliated third party investors on the same or more favorable terms and (ii) payments to Affiliates in respect of securities of the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries contemplated in the foregoing subclause (i) or that were acquired from Persons other than the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case, in accordance with the terms of such securities;

Section 4.12           Limitation on Liens.

(a)            The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create, incur or assume any Lien that secures obligations under any Indebtedness for money borrowed or any related guarantee, on any asset now owned or hereafter acquired, or on any income or profits therefrom or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, except Permitted Liens, without effectively providing that the Notes shall be secured equally or ratably with (or prior to in the case of Liens securing subordinated obligations) the obligations so secured for so long as the obligations are so secured.

(b)            Any Lien which is granted to secure the Notes or such Guarantee pursuant to this Section 4.12 shall be automatically released and discharged at the same time as the release of the Lien that gave rise to the obligation to secure the Notes or such Guarantee.

(c)            With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness.

(2)            the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Subsidiaries, if the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes.

68

Section 4.14          Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.

(a)            Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company will make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of repurchase (subject to the rights of Holders of record of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive payments of interest on the related interest payment date) (in either case, the “Change of Control Payment”), except to the extent the Company has previously or concurrently elected to redeem the Notes as set forth in Section 3.07 hereof. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, unless the Company has previously or concurrently elected to redeem the Notes as set forth in Section 3.07 hereof, the Company will be required to deliver notice electronically or by first class mail a notice to each Holder and the Trustee at the address of such Holder appearing in the security register or otherwise in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC stating:

(1)            that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.14;

(2)            the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be no earlier than 30 days and not later than 60 days after the date such notice is delivered, pursuant to the procedures required by this Indenture and described in such notice, except in the case of a conditional Change of Control Offer made in advance of a Change of Control as described below (the “Change of Control Payment Date”);

(3)            that any Notes not tendered will continue to accrue interest in accordance with the terms of this Indenture;

(4)            that, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control Payment Date;

(5)            that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Trustee receives, not later than the close of business on the second Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is unconditionally withdrawing its election to have such Notes purchased;

(6)            that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $2,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof;

(7)            if such notice is sent prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control, stating that the Change of Control Offer is conditional on the occurrence of such Change of Control and describing each such condition, and, if applicable, stating that, in the Company’s discretion, the Change of Control Payment Date may be delayed until such time (including more than 60 days after the notice is mailed or delivered, including by electronic transmission) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion), or that such purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that the Company shall determine that the Change of Control will not occur by the Change of Control Payment Date, or by the Change of Control Payment Date as so delayed; and

69

(8)            any other information the Company determines is material to such Holder’s decision to tender Notes.

The Company will be required to comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes required in the event of a Change of Control and will not be deemed to have violated this Section 4.14 as a result of such compliance. The Company may rely on any no-action letters issued by the SEC indicating that the Staff of the SEC will not recommend enforcement actions in the event a tender offer satisfies certain conditions.

(b)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture or in the Notes, the Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (i) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to Change of Control Offer made by the Company, (ii) a notice of redemption has been given pursuant to this Indenture as set forth in Section 3.07 hereof or (iii) the Company’s obligations under this Indenture are satisfied and discharged or defeased as set forth in Article 11 hereof on or promptly following the Change of Control. The Company’s obligations in respect of a Change of Control Offer (including the definition of Change of Control) can be waived or modified with the consent of Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding at any time.

(c)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.14, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control.

(d)            If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid on the relevant interest payment date to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date.

Section 4.15           Additional Subsidiary Guarantees.

(a)            If any of the Company’s Domestic Subsidiaries that is not a Guarantor guarantees or becomes otherwise obligated under a Credit Facility incurred under Section 4.09(b)(2) hereof or Indebtedness for borrowed money incurred in reliance on Section 4.09(a) hereof, in each case in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $10.0 million, then in each case such Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Trustee within 60 days thereafter a supplemental indenture in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Company’s obligations under the Notes and this Indenture on the terms set forth herein. Thereafter, such Domestic Subsidiary shall be a Guarantor for all purposes of this Indenture. The form of such supplemental indenture is attached as Exhibit F hereto.

(b)            Each Guarantee will be limited to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by that Subsidiary without rendering the Guarantee, as it relates to such Subsidiary, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

70

(c)            Each Guarantee shall be released in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture set forth in Article 10.

Section 4.16          Suspension of Covenants

(a)            Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or of the Notes to the contrary, during any period of time after the date of this Indenture that (a) the Notes are rated Investment Grade by two of the Rating Agencies and (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture, Sections 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.15 and 5.01(a)(4) of this Indenture will be suspended and no Default or Event of Default shall result from any failure to comply with any of the provisions of such Sections (the “Suspended Covenants”).

Additionally, at such time as the above referenced covenants are suspended (a “Suspension Period”), the Company will no longer be permitted to designate any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

(b)            In the event that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants for any period of time as a result of the foregoing, and on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”) the Notes cease to have Investment Grade Status, then the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants with respect to future events unless and until the Notes subsequently attain Investment Grade Status and no Default or Event of Default is in existence (in which event the Suspended Covenants shall no longer be in effect for such time that the Notes maintain Investment Grade Status and no Default or Event of Default is in existence).

(c)            On each Reversion Date, all Indebtedness incurred, or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Equity Interests issued, during the Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Date will be deemed to be Existing Indebtedness. On each Reversion Date, all calculations made of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.07 will be made as though Section 4.07 had been in effect prior to, but not during, any Suspension Period. Accordingly, Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period will not reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.07(a). In addition, during the Suspension Period, any future obligation to grant further Guarantees under Section 4.15 shall be released. All such further obligation to grant Guarantees shall be reinstated upon a Reversion Date. In addition, for purposes of Section 4.11, all Affiliate Transactions entered into by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with an Affiliate of the Company during the applicable Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Date will be deemed to have been entered into on or prior to the date hereof, and for purposes of Section 4.08, all contracts entered into during the applicable Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Date that contain any of the restrictions contemplated under Section 4.08 will be deemed to have been existing as of the date hereof. For purposes of Section 4.10, on the Reversion Date, the unutilized amount of Net Proceeds will be reset to zero. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) neither (a) the continued existence, after the Reversion Date, of facts and circumstances or obligations that were incurred or otherwise came into existence during a Suspension Period nor (b) the performance, following the Reversion Date, of any such obligations, shall constitute a breach of any covenant set forth herein or cause a Default or Event of Default thereunder and none of the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall bear any liability for any actions taken or events occurring during the Suspension Period, or any actions taken at any time pursuant to any contractual obligation arising during any Suspension Period, in each case as a result of a failure to comply with the Suspended Covenants during the Suspension Period (or, upon termination of the Suspension Period or after that time based solely on any action taken or event that occurred during the Suspension Period), and (2) following a Reversion Date, the Company and each Restricted Subsidiary will be permitted, without causing a Default or Event of Default, to honor, comply with or otherwise perform any contractual commitments or obligations arising during any Suspension Period and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.

Section 4.17          Measuring Compliance.

(a)            When calculating the availability under any basket or ratio under this Indenture, including, without limitation, Consolidated Secured Indebtedness Leverage Ratio or the Total Indebtedness to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio, in each case in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto, the date of determination of such basket or ratio and of any default or event of default blocker shall, at the option of the Company, be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into and such baskets or ratios shall be calculated on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period, and, for the avoidance of doubt, (x) if any such ratios are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in such ratio (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated Cash Flow of the Company or the target company) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Transaction, such ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder and (y) such ratios shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction or related transactions; provided further, that if the Company elects to have such determinations occur at the time of entry into such definitive agreement, any such transaction shall be deemed to have occurred on the date the definitive agreements are entered and outstanding thereafter for purposes of subsequently calculating any ratios under this Indenture after the date of such agreement and before the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction and to the extent baskets were utilized in satisfying any covenants, such baskets shall be deemed utilized, but any calculation of Consolidated Total Assets or Consolidated Net Income for purposes of other incurrences of Indebtedness or Liens or making of Restricted Payments (not related to such Limited Condition Transaction) shall not reflect such Limited Condition Transaction until it is closed.

(b)            Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any pro forma event, the pro forma calculations will be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company.

(5)            default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, which default is caused by a failure to pay the principal of such Indebtedness at the final stated maturity thereof within the grace period provided in such Indebtedness (a “Payment Default”), and the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default, aggregates $50.0 million or more;

(6)            default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company and any Restricted Subsidiary (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company and any Restricted Subsidiary) other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, which default results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity not rescinded or cured within 30 days after such acceleration, and the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated and remains undischarged after such 30-day period, aggregates $50.0 million or more;

(7)            failure by the Company and any Significant Subsidiary to pay final judgments (other than any judgment as to which a reputable insurance company has accepted full liability) aggregating $50.0 million or more (net of any amounts which are covered by enforceable insurance policies issued by solvent carriers), which judgments are not stayed, discharged or waived within 60 days after their entry;

(8)            the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of Bankruptcy Law:

(A)            commences a voluntary case,

74

(B)            consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case,

(C)            consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, or

(A)            is for relief against the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;

(B)            appoints a custodian for all or substantially all of the property of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary; or

(C)            orders the liquidation of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary;

and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days; or

(10)            except as permitted by this Indenture, the Guarantee of any Significant Subsidiary shall be held in a judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any reason to be in full force and effect, or any Guarantor that qualifies as a Significant Subsidiary, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor that qualifies as a Significant Subsidiary, shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under its Guarantee in writing and such Default continues for 10 days.

(b)            (i) If a Default for a failure to report or failure to deliver a required certificate in connection with another default (the “Initial Default”) occurs, then at the time such Initial Default is cured, such Default for a failure to report or failure to deliver a required certificate in connection with another default that resulted solely because of that Initial Default will also be cured without any further action and (ii) any Default or Event of Default for the failure to comply with the time periods prescribed in Section 4.03 hereof or otherwise to deliver any notice or certificate pursuant to any other provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to be cured upon the delivery of any such report required by such covenant or such notice or certificate, as applicable, even though such delivery is not within the prescribed period specified in this Indenture.

(c)            Any failure to perform, or breach of, Section 4.03 hereof shall not be a Default or an Event of Default until the 121^st day after the Company has received the notice referred to in clause (4) of Section 6.01(a) (at which point, unless cured or waived, such failure to perform or breach shall constitute an Event of Default).

Section 6.02          Acceleration.

If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% of the aggregate principal amount then outstanding of the Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable by notice in writing to the Company and the Trustee specifying the respective Event of Default and that it is a “notice of acceleration” and the same shall become immediately due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from the events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company described in clauses (8) and (9) of Section 6.01(a) above, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice. Holder of the Notes may not enforce this Indenture or the Notes except as provided in this Indenture,

75

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount then outstanding of the Notes, by written notice to the Trustee, may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium on, or principal of, the Notes.

Section 6.03          Other Remedies.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

Section 6.04          Waiver of Past Defaults.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase); provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related Payment Default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 6.05          Control by Majority.

Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in such Holders’ interest. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes, or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability.

Section 6.06          Limitation on Suits.

No Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

(a)            such Holder has previously given the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

(b)            Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

76

(c)            such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

(d)            the Trustee does not comply with such request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and

(e)            during such 60-day period, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request.

A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Note.

Section 6.07          Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

Section 6.08          Collection Suit by Trustee.

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) hereof occurs and is continuing, without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding related thereto, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount of principal of, premium on, if any, and interest, if any, remaining unpaid on the Notes and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee (including without limitation any amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof), its agents and counsel.

Section 6.09          Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

77

Section 6.10          Priorities.

If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money in the following order:

First:               to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection;

Second:               to Holders of Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and

Third:               to the Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10.

Section 6.11          Undertaking for Costs.

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

Article 7

Section 7.01          Duties of Trustee.

(a)            If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee will exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

79

Section 7.03          Individual Rights of Trustee.

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as trustee (if this Indenture has been qualified under the TIA) or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Section 7.10 hereof.

Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes.

Section 7.06          [Reserved].

Section 7.07          Compensation and Indemnity.

(a)            The Company will pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation as is agreed to from time to time by the Company and the Trustee for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation will not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company will reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services, except for any disbursements, advances or expenses as shall have been caused by the Trustee’s negligence or willful misconduct. Such expenses will include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.

(b)            The Company and the Guarantors will indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities or expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the reasonable and documented costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Company and the Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, the Guarantors, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith. The Trustee will notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company will not relieve the Company or any of the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. The Company or such Guarantor will defend the claim and the Trustee will cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company will pay the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Company nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

80

(c)            The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section 7.07 will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

(d)            To secure the Company’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee will have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, particular Notes. Such Lien will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

(e)           When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in clauses (8) and (9) of Section 6.01(a) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

Section 7.08          Replacement of Trustee.

(a)            A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08.

(b)            The Trustee may resign in writing at any time upon 30 days’ written notice to the Company and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company may remove the Trustee if:

(1)            the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof;

(2)            the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

(3)            a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(4)            the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

(c)            If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company will promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.

(d)            If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee (at the Company’s expense), the Company, or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

81

(e)            If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(f)            A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the successor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee will mail a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee will promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof will continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

Section 7.09          Successor Trustee by Merger, etc.

If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act will be the successor Trustee.

Section 7.10          Eligibility; Disqualification.

There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $100.0 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

If this Indenture has been qualified under the TIA, this Indenture will always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA §310(a)(1), (2) and (5) and such Trustee will be subject to TIA §310(b).

Article 8
LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

Section 8.01          Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

The Company may, at its option and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 hereof be applied with respect to the outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8.

Section 8.02          Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company and each of the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes (including the Guarantees) on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company and the Guarantors will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Guarantees), which will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes, the Guarantees and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

(a)            the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes when such payments are due, or on the redemption date, as the case may be from the trust referred to in Section 8.04 hereof;

82

(b)            the Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the Maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust under Article 2 and Section 4.02 hereof;

(c)            the rights, powers, trusts, immunities and indemnities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith; and

(d)            this Article 8 with respect to provisions relating to Legal Defeasance.

Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof.

Section 8.03          Covenant Defeasance.

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company and each of the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from each of their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.15, 4.16 hereof and clause (4) of Section 5.01(a) hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes will thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but will continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes will not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes and Guarantees, the Company and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes and Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(a)(3), (4), (5), (6), (7) and (10) hereof will not constitute Events of Default.

Section 8.04          Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof:

(a)            The Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable U.S. government obligations, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the outstanding Notes on the stated maturity or on the applicable optional redemption date, as the case may be;

83

(b)            in the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that:

(1)            the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or law;

(2)            since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law,

in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance, and will be subject to federal income tax in the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(c)            in the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, subject to customary assumptions and exceptions, reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(d)            no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from a failure to comply with Section 4.09 as a result of the borrowing of the funds required to effect such deposit and the granting of Liens in connection therewith);

(e)            such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture and the agreements governing any other Indebtedness being defeased, discharged or replaced) to which the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is bound;

(f)            the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by them with the intent of preferring the Holders of the Notes over any of the Company’s other creditors or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any of their other creditors or others; and

(g)            the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance relating to the Notes have been complied with.

Section 8.05          Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

84

The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.

Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Section 8.06          Repayment to Company.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, will thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

Section 8.07          Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Guarantees will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

Article 9
AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

Section 9.01          Without Consent of Holders of Notes.

Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, without the consent of any Holder of Notes, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees:

(a)            to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect, error or inconsistency;

85

(b)            to provide for uncertificated Notes or Guarantees in addition to or in place of certificated Notes or Guarantees;

(c)            to provide for the assumption of the obligations of the Company or any Guarantor to Holders of the Notes in the case of a merger, amalgamation, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or such Guarantor’s assets, as applicable;

(d)            to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of Notes or that does not adversely affect the rights hereunder of any such Holder in any material respect;

(e)            to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Indenture;

(f)            to provide for the issuance of exchange notes, if applicable;

(g)            to evidence and provide for the acceptance of an appointment of a successor Trustee;

(h)            to add Guarantees with respect to the Notes or to add covenants;

(i)            to conform this Indenture or the Notes to any such provision of the “Description of Notes” section of the Offering Memorandum;

(j)            to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain, to the extent this Indenture is qualified under the TIA, the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA;

(k)            to secure the Notes;

(l)            to release a Guarantor upon its sale or designation as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or other permitted release from its Guarantee;

(m)            to reduce the minimum denominations of the Notes; and

(n)            to make any amendment to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the transfer and legending of Notes as permitted by this Indenture, including, without limitation, to facilitate the issuance and administration of Notes; provided however, that (i) compliance with this Indenture as so amended would not result in Notes being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any other applicable securities law and (ii) such amendment does not adversely affect the rights of holders to transfer Notes in any material respect.

Upon the request of the Company and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, and except as provided in the following sentence, the Trustee will join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee will not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel shall be required in connection with the addition of a Guarantor under this Indenture upon execution and delivery by such Guarantor and the Trustee of a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit F hereto and delivery of an Officer’s Certificate.

86

Section 9.02          With Consent of Holders of Notes.

Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including, without limitation, Sections 3.01, 3.03, 3.07 (regarding when notice of redemption is to be provided), 3.09, 4.10 and 4.14 hereof) and the Notes and the Guarantees with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on, the Notes, except a Payment Default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes or the Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes). Section 2.08 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for purposes of this Section 9.02. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver may not (with respect to any Note held by a nonconsenting Holder):

(a)            reduce the aggregate principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(b)           reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any note or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption (except with respect to when notice of redemption is to be provided to the Trustee or the Holders) of the Notes (except those provisions relating to Sections 4.10 and 4.14);

(c)            reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any Notes;

(d)         waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and a waiver of the Payment Default that resulted from such acceleration);

(e)            make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Notes;

(f)           make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes to institute suits for payments of principal of or interest on the Notes on or after the due dates therefor;

(g)            waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by Sections 4.10 and 4.14);

(h)            release all or substantially all of the Guarantees of the Guarantors other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or

(i)            make any change in the foregoing amendment and waiver provisions.

Upon the request of the Company and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture.

87

It is not necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company will mail to the Holders of the Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver.

Section 9.03          Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.

If this Indenture is qualified under the TIA, every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes will be set forth in an amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the TIA as then in effect.

Section 9.04          Revocation and Effect of Consents.

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date.

Section 9.05          Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.

Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note will not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 9.06          Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.

The Trustee will sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) will be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04 hereof, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel will be required for the Trustee to execute any amendment or supplement adding a new Guarantor under this Indenture.

88

Article 10
GUARANTEES

Section 10.01          Guarantee.

(a)            Subject to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that:

(1)            the principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and

(2)            in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

(b)            Other than as provided for in Article 8 and Article 10 hereof, the Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Guarantee will not be discharged except pursuant to Article 8 or Article 10 or by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture.

(c)            If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect.

(d)            Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Guarantee.

89

Section 10.02          Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

Section 10.03          Execution and Delivery of Guarantee.

To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Guarantee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit E hereto will be endorsed by an Officer of such Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this Indenture, or a supplement hereto, will be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its Officers (or, if an Officer is not available, by a board member or director) by manual or facsimile signature.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Guarantee.

If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Guarantee is endorsed, the Guarantee will be valid nevertheless.

The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, will constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

In the event that the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries creates or acquires any Domestic Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture, if required by Section 4.15 hereof, the Company will cause such Domestic Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.15 hereof and this Article 10, to the extent applicable.

WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of May 3, 2023 providing for the issuance of 7.250% Senior Notes due 2031 (the “Notes”);

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows:

1.             Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

(a) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires the calculation of any financial ratio or financial test,

(b) testing availability under baskets set forth in this Agreement (including baskets determined by reference to consolidated total assets), or

(c) testing whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and, with respect to any Incremental Term Loan to finance such Limited Condition Acquisition, testing whether any representation or warranty in any Loan Document is correct as of such date,

in each case, at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Acquisition, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, any such Default or Event of Default exists and any such representation or warranty is correct shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into (the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving Pro Forma Effect to the Limited Condition Acquisition (and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith, including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof, as if they had occurred on the first day of the most recently ended Measurement Period prior to the LCT Test Date), Parent, Holdings, the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary would have been permitted to take such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, test or basket, such ratio, test or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with or if no such Default or Event of Default shall exist on such LCT Test Date or such representation or warranty is correct as of such LCT Test Date then such condition shall be deemed satisfied on the date of consummation of such LCT Test Date for purposes of clause (iii) above; provided that if financial statements for one or more subsequent fiscal periods shall have become available, the Borrower may elect, in its sole discretion, to redetermine all such ratios, tests or baskets on the basis of such financial statements, in which case, such date of redetermination shall thereafter be deemed to be the applicable LCT Test Date. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would have failed to have been complied with as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in consolidated total assets of Parent and its Subsidiaries, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or any such representation or warranty in any Loan Document is not correct on the date of such Limited Condition Acquisition, such baskets, tests or ratios or requirement will not be deemed to have failed to have been complied with as a result of such circumstance; provided, however, that if any ratios improve or baskets increase as a result of such fluctuations, such improved ratios or baskets may be utilized. If the Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Acquisition, then in connection with any calculation of any ratio, test or basket availability with respect to any transaction permitted hereunder (each, a “Subsequent Transaction”) following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Acquisition is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, for purposes of determining whether such Subsequent Transaction is permitted under this Agreement, any such ratio, test or basket shall be required to be satisfied on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.

- 65 -

1.4.       Certain Calculations In the event any fixed “baskets” under this Agreement are intended to be utilized together with any incurrence-based “baskets” under this Agreement in a single transaction or series of related transactions, (i) compliance with or satisfaction of any applicable financial ratios or tests for the portion of Indebtedness or any other applicable transaction or action to be incurred under any incurrence-based “baskets” shall first be calculated without giving effect to amounts being utilized pursuant to any fixed “baskets”, but giving full pro forma effect to all applicable and related transactions (including, subject to the foregoing with respect to fixed “baskets”, any incurrence and repayments of Indebtedness) and (ii) thereafter, incurrence of the portion of such Indebtedness or other applicable transaction or action to be incurred under any fixed “baskets” shall be calculated.

The Borrower may from time to time request that an Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to such Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein an Application therefor, completed to the reasonable satisfaction of such Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as such Issuing Lender may request.

Each L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with each Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender for which such Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender upon demand at such Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed.

(b) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to an Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 4.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit is not paid to such Issuing Lender within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to Section 4.4(a) is not made available to such Issuing Lender by such L/C Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Series C Replacement Revolving Credit FacilityCommitments.

The Borrower agrees to reimburse each Issuing Lender for the amount of (a) such draft so paid and (b) any expenses incurred by such Issuing Lender in connection with such payment (the amounts described in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) in respect of any drawing, collectively, the “Payment Amount”), on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice of such draft, if such notice is received on such day (or if the Borrower shall have received such notice later than 10:00 A.M. New York City time on such Business Day, on the immediately following Business Day). Each such payment shall be made to such Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein in Dollars and in immediately available funds.

The Borrowing Date with respect to such borrowing shall be the first date on which a borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans could be made, pursuant to Section 3.2, if the Administrative Agent had received a notice of such borrowing at the time the Administrative Agent receives notice from the relevant Issuing Lender of such drawing under such Letter of Credit.

4.6.        Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 4 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower may have or have had against any Issuing Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person. The Borrower also agrees with each Issuing Lender that such Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under Section 4.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee. No Issuing Lender shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender. The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by an Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it for the Borrower’s account, or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct and in accordance with the standards of care specified in the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York, shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not result in any liability of such Issuing Lender to the Borrower.

4.7.        Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower of the date and amount thereof.

(d) Whenever, at any time after the Swing Line Lender has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Lender’s Swing Line Participation Amount, the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of the Swing Line Loans, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Swing Line Participation Amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded and, in the case of principal and interest payments, to reflect such Lender’s pro rata portion of such payment if such payment is not sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on all Swing Line Loans then due); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swing Line Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Credit Lender will return to the Swing Line Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by the Swing Line Lender.

(e) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make the Revolving Credit Loans referred to in Section 4.10(b) and to purchase participating interests pursuant to Section 4.10(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender or the Borrower may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 7.2; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of Parent, Holdings or the Borrower; (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by Parent, Holdings or the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Lender; or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given (subject to the revocation or postponement of notice as permitted above), the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans and Swing Line Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.4 or Section 5.5, any prepayment or repricing of the Tranche B Term Loans effected after the First Amendment Effective Date and on or prior to the date that is six months after the First Amendment Effective Date as a result of a Repricing Transaction shall be accompanied by a fee equal to 1.00% of the principal amount of Tranche B Term Loans prepaid or repriced, unless such fee is waived by the applicable Tranche B Term Loan Lender. If in connection with a Repricing Transaction after the First Amendment Effective Date and on or prior to the date that is six months after the First Amendment Effective Date any Lender is replaced as a result of its being a Non-Consenting Lender in respect of such Repricing Transaction pursuant to Section 5.17 or clause (b) of the last paragraph of Section 12.1, such Lender shall be entitled to the fee provided under this Section 5.4

- 88 -

(c) Subject to the last sentence of this paragraph, if, for any fiscal year of the Borrower commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019, there shall be Excess Cash Flow, then, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, the Term Loans shall be prepaid as set forth in Section 5.5(d) by an amount equal to (x) the ECF Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow during such fiscal year minus, to the extent not paid or financed with Net Cash Proceeds of secured Indebtedness (other than Revolver Indebtedness), (y) all voluntary principal payments of the Term Loans during such fiscal year (including repurchases pursuant to Section 5.19 and Section 12.16 in an amount equal to the discounted amount actually paid in cash) and all voluntary principal payments in respect of Revolver Indebtedness (to the extent accompanied by an equivalent permanent reduction in commitments thereunder). Each such prepayment shall be made on July 15 of the following fiscal year, beginning on July 15, 2020 (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”).

(d) Subject to Section 5.11(d), amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments made pursuant to this Section 5.5 shall be applied, first, pro rata to the Tranche B Term Loans and, to the extent required by the terms of any Extending Term Loans, Refinancing Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans, to such other Term Loans (based on the amount of Term Loans under each Facility requiring such a payment), and after giving effect to the foregoing, to the payment of the installments due on such Term Loans within each such Facility in direct order of maturity, pro rata within each such Facility, second, after the Tranche B Term Loans and, to the extent required by the terms of any Extending Term Loans, Refinancing Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans, such other Term Loans, have been prepaid in full, to prepay the Revolving Credit Loans and/or Swing Line Loans pro rata according to the respective pro rata share of the relevant Lender (in each case without any corresponding reduction of the Commitments hereunder), and third, to cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit. The application of any prepayment of Loans under any Facility pursuant to this Section shall be made, first, to Base Rate Loans under such Facility and, second, to EurocurrencySOFR Loans under such Facility. Each prepayment of the Loans under this Section (except in the case of Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid. Pending the final application of Net Cash Proceeds, the Borrower may temporarily prepay outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and/or Swing Line Loans or otherwise make Permitted Investments. For the avoidance of doubt, Retained Declined Proceeds shall not be required to be used to make mandatory prepayments under this Section 5.5.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 5.5, (i) to the extent that any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale by a Foreign Subsidiary giving rise to a prepayment pursuant to Section 5.5(b) (a “Foreign Disposition”), the Net Cash Proceeds of any Recovery Event from a Foreign Subsidiary (a “Foreign Casualty Event”), or Excess Cash Flow is (i) prohibited or delayed by applicable local law, (ii) restricted by applicable organizational or constitutive documents or any agreement or (iii) subject to other onerous or other administrative impediments from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in Section 5.5(c), or the Borrower shall not be required to make a prepayment at the time provided in Section 5.5(b), as the case may be. Instead, such amounts may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary so long as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to the United States (the Borrower hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and if within one year following the date on which the respective prepayment would otherwise have been required such repatriation of any of such affected amounts retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary is permissible under the applicable local law or applicable organizational or constituent documents or other agreements, or such impediment has been removed or overcome (even if such cash is actually not repatriated), such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly (and in any event not later than five Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 5.5 to the extent provided therein and (ii) to the extent that the Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition, any Foreign Casualty Event or Excess Cash Flow would have a material adverse tax cost consequence (as determined in good faith by the Borrower and taking into account any foreign tax credit or benefit received in connection with such repatriation) with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, then, to the extent that such material adverse tax cost consequence is not directly attributable to actions taken by Parent, the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries with the intent of avoiding or reducing the mandatory prepayments otherwise required under this Section 5.5, the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary.

- 89 -

(f) If on any date, the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the sum of (x) the L/C Obligations, plus (y) the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Loans outstanding at any time plus (z) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans under a Facility then outstanding (the “Revolving Credit Exposure”) would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment for such Facility on such date, the Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of any such Swing Line Loans and Revolving Credit Loans on such date (and, to the extent after giving effect to such prepayment, the Revolving Credit Exposure still exceeds such Total Revolving Credit Commitment, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent (or an account in the name of the Administrative Agent with another institution designated by the Administrative Agent)) such that the aggregate amount so prepaid by the Borrower and cash collateral so deposited in an account with the Administrative Agent (or an account in the name of the Administrative Agent with another institution designated by the Administrative Agent) shall be sufficient to reduce the Revolving Credit Exposure to an amount not to exceed such Total Revolving Credit Commitment on such date together with any interest accrued to the date of such prepayment on the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans prepaid. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 5.5(f) to the Borrower and the Lenders.

Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 5.5, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any prepayment of EurocurrencySOFR Loans is required to be made under this Section 5.5 prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor and less than three months are remaining in such Interest Period, in lieu of making any payment pursuant to this Section 5.5 in respect of any such EurocurrencySOFR Loan prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor, the Borrower may, in its sole discretion, deposit the amount of any such prepayment otherwise required to be made into a cash collateral account maintained with the Administrative Agent until the last day of such Interest Period, at which time the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of such Loans in accordance with this Section 5.5. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall also be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of the outstanding Loans in accordance with the relevant provisions of this Section 5.5.

- 90 -

In respect of any of the mandatory prepayments set forth in this Section 5.5(a) or (b), Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to the Administrative Agent (for prompt delivery to the Lenders) at least five Business Days prior to the date of any such prepayment (the date specified for such prepayment, the “Mandatory Prepayment Date”), a prepayment notice that shall specify the Mandatory Prepayment Date and amount of prepayment and the events giving rise to such prepayment.

5.6.        Conversion and Continuation Options. (a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert EurocurrencySOFR Loans of the Borrower under any Facility to Base Rate Loans under such Facility by giving the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day’s prior irrevocable notice of such election, provided that the provisions of Section 5.14 shall apply in the event of any such conversion of EurocurrencySOFR Loans on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Base Rate Loans under any Facility to EurocurrencySOFR Loans under such Facility by giving the Administrative Agent at least three U.S. Government Securities Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor), provided that no Base Rate Loan under a particular Facility may be converted into a EurocurrencySOFR Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Required Lenders have, determined in their sole discretion not to permit such conversions. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

(b) The Borrower may elect to continue any EurocurrencySOFR Loan under any Facility as EurocurrencySOFR Loans upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by giving irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans, provided that no EurocurrencySOFR Loan under a particular Facility may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Required Lenders have, determined in their sole discretion not to permit such continuations, and provided, further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso, such Loans shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

- 91 -

5.7.      Minimum Amounts and Maximum Number of EurocurrencySOFR Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions, continuations and optional prepayments of EurocurrencySOFR Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the EurocurrencySOFR Loans comprising each EurocurrencySOFR Tranche shall be equal to $2,500,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than 15 EurocurrencySOFR Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.

5.8.      Interest Rates and Payment Dates. (a) Each EurocurrencySOFR Loan under each Facility shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency RateAdjusted Term SOFR determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin for such Facility.

(b) Each Base Rate Loan under each Facility shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for such Facility.

(c) (i) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), all overdue amounts shall bear interest at a rate per annum that is equal to (x) in the case of the Loans, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2% per annum or (y) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations, the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Series C Replacement Revolving Credit FacilityCommitments plus 2% per annum, and (ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or any commitment fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) (after giving effect to any grace period in Section 10(a)), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans under the relevant Facility plus 2% (or, in the case of any such other amounts that do not relate to a particular Facility, the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Series C Replacement Revolving Credit FacilityCommitments plus 2%), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment (after giving effect to any grace period in Section 10(a)) until such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment); provided that any Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any interest at the default rate of interest set forth in this clause (c) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such interest that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable from time to time on demand.

(e)  Term SOFR Conforming Changes. In connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR.

- 92 -

(f)  Fourth Amendment Existing Loans. With respect to the Fourth Amendment Existing Loans, from the Fourth Amendment Effective Date until the earlier of (x) the repayment of such Fourth Amendment Existing Loans and (y) the Fourth Amendment Existing Revolving Interest Period Termination Date or Fourth Amendment Existing Term Interest Period Termination Date, as applicable, for such Fourth Amendment Existing Loans (each such earlier date with respect to such Fourth Amendment Existing Loans, the “Fourth Amendment Existing Loan Interest Payment Date”), the Fourth Amendment Existing Loans shall continue to bear interest at the applicable Fourth Amendment Existing Revolving Interest Rate or Fourth Amendment Existing Term Interest Rate, subject to any increase pursuant to Section 5.8(c). On the Fourth Amendment Existing Loan Interest Payment Date for each Fourth Amendment Existing Loan, the Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the Fourth Amendment Existing Loans accrued from the beginning of the Fourth Amendment Existing Revolving Interest Period or Fourth Amendment Existing Term Interest Period, as applicable, to the Fourth Amendment Existing Loan Interest Payment Date at the Fourth Amendment Existing Revolving Interest Rate or Fourth Amendment Existing Term Interest Rate, as applicable. On the Fourth Amendment Existing Revolving Interest Period Termination Date or Fourth Amendment Existing Term Interest Period Termination Date, as applicable, with respect to each Fourth Amendment Existing Loan, any Fourth Amendment Existing Loans that remain outstanding shall be converted to Base Rate Loans or SOFR Loans, as selected by the Borrower in accordance with Section 5.6. In the event that the Borrower does not provide notice of conversion of any Fourth Amendment Existing Loans to SOFR Loans to the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the Fourth Amendment Existing Revolving Interest Period Termination Date or Fourth Amendment Existing Term Interest Period Termination Date, as applicable, with respect to each Fourth Amendment Existing Loan, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Fourth Amendment Existing Loans to Base Rate Loans and such Fourth Amendment Existing Loans shall automatically be converted to Base Rate Loans on the Fourth Amendment Existing Revolving Interest Period Termination Date or Fourth Amendment Existing Term Interest Period Termination Date, as applicable.

5.9.      Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) Interest, fees and commissions payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to Base Rate Loans on which interest is calculated on the basis of the Prime Rate, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurocurrency RateAdjusted Term SOFR. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate.

- 93 -

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 5.8(a).

5.10. Inability to Determine Interest Rate.

(a) Unless and until a Replacement Rate is implemented in accordance with clause (b) below, if prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

(i) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period, or

(ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required Lenders that the Eurocurrency Rate to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,

the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of Eurocurrency Loans, or pending request for conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans, or failing that: (x) any Eurocurrency Loans under the relevant Facility requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Base Rate Loans, (y) any Loans under the relevant Facility that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurocurrency Loans shall be continued as Base Rate Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurocurrency Loans under the relevant Facility shall be converted, on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, to Base Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurocurrency Loans under the relevant Facility shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans under the relevant Facility to Eurocurrency Loans.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.10(a) above, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination (such determination to be conclusive absent manifest error) or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Borrower) that the Required Lenders have determined that (i) the circumstances described in Section 5.10(a)(i) or Section 5.10(a)(ii) have arisen and that such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (ii) the Eurocurrency Rate specified herein is no longer a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in the U.S. syndicated loan market in U.S. Dollars or (iii) the applicable supervisor or administrator (if any) of the Eurocurrency Rate specified herein or any Governmental Authority having, or purporting to have, jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Eurocurrency Rate specified herein shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans in the U.S. syndicated loan market in U.S. Dollars, then the Administrative Agent may, to the extent practicable (with the consent of the Borrower and as determined by the Administrative Agent to be generally in accordance with similar situations in other transactions in which it is serving as administrative agent or otherwise consistent with market practice generally), establish a replacement interest rate (the “Replacement Rate”), in which case, the Replacement Rate shall, subject to the next two sentences, replace the Eurocurrency Rate for all purposes under the Loan Documents unless and until (A) an event described in Section 5.10(a)(i), (a)(ii), (b)(i), (b)(ii) or (b)(iii) occurs with respect to the Replacement Rate or (B) the Required Lenders (directly, or through the Administrative Agent) notify the Borrower that the Replacement Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding the Loans bearing interest at the Replacement Rate. In connection with the establishment and application of the Replacement Rate, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 5.10(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 12.1), such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the delivery of such amendment to the Lenders, written notices from such Lenders that in the aggregate constitute Required Lenders, with each such notice stating that such Lender objects to such amendment. To the extent the Replacement Rate is approved by the Administrative Agent in connection with this clause (b), the Replacement Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that, in each case, to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Replacement Rate shall be applied as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent (it being understood that any such modification by the Administrative Agent shall not require the consent of, or consultation with, any of the Lenders).

- 94 -

(a)          Circumstances Affecting Benchmark Availability. Subject to clause (c) below, in connection with any request for a SOFR Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof or otherwise, if for any reason (i) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining Adjusted Term SOFR for the applicable Interest Period with respect to a proposed SOFR Loan on or prior to the first day of such Interest Period or (ii) the Required Lenders shall determine on or prior to the first day of an Interest Period that Adjusted Term SOFR does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans during such Interest Period and, in the case of clause (ii), the Required Lenders have provided notice and certification of such determination to the Administrative Agent, then, in each case, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower and, in the case of clause (i), the Lenders. Upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lenders to make SOFR Loans, and any right of the Borrower to convert any Loan to or continue any Loan as a SOFR Loan, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans or the affected Interest Periods) until the Administrative Agent (with respect to clause (ii), at the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (A) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans or the affected Interest Periods) or, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (B) any outstanding affected SOFR Loans will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 5.14.

- 95 -

(b) [Reserved].

(c) Benchmark Replacement Setting.

(i)      Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all affected Lenders and the Borrower so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 5.10(c)(i) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(ii)     Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right in consultation with the Borrower to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(iii)   Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (A) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (B) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 5.10(c)(iv) and (y) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 5.10(c), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 5.10(c).

- 96 -

(iv)     Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (A) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (1) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (2) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (1) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (2) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(v)      Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, (A) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans and (B) any outstanding affected SOFR Loans will be deemed to have been converted to Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.

5.11.    Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, each payment by the Borrower on account of any commitment fee or Letter of Credit fee, and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders, shall be made pro rata according to the respective Tranche B Term Loan Percentages or Revolving Credit Percentages, as the case may be, of the relevant Lenders; provided however that if (i) the Borrower makes non pro rata payments in accordance with Sections 5.18 and 5.19 to only those Lenders selling Term Loans in an Auction or in connection with an Assignment pursuant to Section 12.16 or (ii) Facilities in addition to the Tranche B Term Facility or the Original Revolving Credit Facility exist pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, this Section 5.11(a) shall not prohibit the Borrower from making such additional payments or such reductions in Commitments as otherwise expressly provided for herein.

- 97 -

(b) Except as otherwise provided herein, each payment (including each prepayment) of the Tranche B Term Loans shall be allocated among the Tranche B Term Loan Lenders holding such Tranche B Term Loans pro rata based on the principal amount of Tranche B Term Loans held by such Tranche B Term Loan Lenders. Amounts prepaid on account of the Tranche B Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

(c) Except as otherwise provided herein, each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Credit Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Credit Loans then held by the Lenders, except with respect to (i) any payments made pursuant to Section 5.20 and (ii) any payments made pursuant to Sections 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5 solely in respect of the reduction and associated mandatory payment of the first $131,000,000 in Series B Replacement Revolving Commitments in the aggregate, which such payments shall be solely for the benefit of and be applied to reduce the Series B Replacement Revolving Commitments evidenced by the First Incremental Amendment, ratably in accordance with such Series B Replacement Revolving Commitments. Each payment in respect of Reimbursement Obligations in respect of any Letter of Credit shall be made to the Issuing Lender that issued such Letters of Credit.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 5.5 or 5.11, each Term Loan Lender may, at its option, decline all or any portion of any mandatory payment required by Section 5.5(a), (b) or (c) (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) applicable to the Term Loan of such Lender by providing written notice (each, a “Rejection Notice”) to the Administrative Agent and Borrower no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days prior to the Mandatory Prepayment Date regarding such prepayment. Each Rejection Notice from a given Term Loan Lender shall specify the principal amount of the mandatory prepayment of Term Loans to be declined by such Term Loan Lender. If a Term Loan Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such Rejection Notice fails to specify the principal amount of the Term Loans to be rejected, any such failure shall be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory repayment of Term Loans due to it. Any Declined Proceeds properly rejected pursuant to the above terms shall be retained by the Borrower (such retained Declined Proceeds referred to herein as “Retained Declined Proceeds”).

(e) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the Payment Office, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Any payment made by the Borrower after 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been made on the next following Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders entitled thereto promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the EurocurrencySOFR Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a EurocurrencySOFR Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

- 98 -

(f) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate, in each case for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount (but only to the extent theretofore made available by it to the Borrower) with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to the applicable borrowing under the relevant Facility on demand, from the Borrower.

(g) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by the Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower.

5.12.    Requirements of Law. (a) If any Change in Law made subsequent to the date hereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive made subsequent to the date hereof (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority:

- 99 -

(i) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve (including pursuant to regulations issued from time to time by the Board for determining the maximum reserve requirement (including any emergency, special, supplemental or other marginal reserve requirement) with respect to eurocurrency funding (currently referred to as “Eurocurrency liabilities” in Regulation D of the Board, as amended and in effect from time to time)), special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurocurrency RateAdjusted Term SOFR hereunder; or

(ii) shall subject the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender to any Taxes (other than (x) Excluded Taxes and (y) Indemnified Taxes that are covered by Section 5.13) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, or

(iii)       shall impose on such Lender any other condition (other than Taxes);

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Administrative Agent, such Lender, or the Issuing Lender by an amount which such Administrative Agent, Lender or the Issuing Lender reasonably deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, within 15 Business Days of its written demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender or the Issuing Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction.

- 100 -

(c) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(d) The Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 5.12 for any such increased cost or reduction incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender demands, or notifies the Borrower in writing of its intention to demand, compensation therefor, provided that, if the circumstance giving rise to such increased cost or reduction is retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

5.13. Taxes.

(a) Except as required by a Requirement of Law, all payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Loan Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes. If any Taxes are required by a Requirement of Law to be withheld or deducted from any amounts payable by or on behalf of such Loan Party to any Agent, Lender or Transferee, the applicable withholding agent shall deduct and withhold such amounts as required by law, and, to the extent such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, the applicable Loan Party shall pay additional amounts to the extent necessary so that after the applicable Loan Party makes all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.13), such Agent, Lender or Transferee receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no deductions or withholdings for Indemnified Taxes been made.

(b) In addition, the Borrower or any other Loan Party, as the case may be, shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Whenever any Indemnified Taxes are payable by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, reasonably promptly thereafter, the Borrower or any other Loan Party shall send to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Agent or Lender, as the case may be, a copy of a receipt received by the Borrower or other Loan Party, as the case may be, showing payment thereof to a taxing authority, or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Without duplication of amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.13(a), the Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless, any Agent, each Lender or Transferee within 15 Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes imposed on the Agent or such Lender or Transferee, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.13), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority, except to the extent that such Indemnified Taxes constitute a penalty or interest resulting from (i) the failure of the Agent, Lender or Transferee to promptly notify the Borrower of such Indemnified Taxes or (ii) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Agent, Lender or Transferee (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment).

- 101 -

(e) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower or any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower or the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.6 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax or backup withholding Tax under the law of any applicable jurisdiction with respect to any payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower or any applicable Loan Party and the Administrative Agent at any time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower, the applicable Loan Party or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation as prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, the applicable Loan Party or the Administrative Agent to permit such payments to be made without such withholding Tax or backup withholding Tax or at a reduced rate. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(i) Each Lender, Transferee (in the case of a Participant, if it has purchased a Participation from a Lender that is a Non-U.S. Person) and Agent that is a Non-U.S. Person (each a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant that is a Non-U.S. Person, the Participant shall deliver to the Lender from which it purchased its Participation, and such Lender shall obtain from the Participant and transmit to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with such Lender’s Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY) two copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E, Form W-ECI or Form W-8IMY (together with all additional documentation required to be transmitted with Form W-8IMY), including the appropriate forms and related statements described in this Section, as applicable, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender or Non-U.S. Participant (a) with each such Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI certifying as to such filer’s entitlement to a zero rate of, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding Tax on all payments by the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (b) if a Non-U.S. Lender is claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, attaching to such Non-U.S. Lender’s Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit I-1, Exhibit I-2, Exhibit I-3 or Exhibit I-4, as applicable, or any other form approved by the Administrative Agent, to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the applicable Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and that no payments in connection with the Loan Documents are effectively connected with such Foreign Lender’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business. Such forms shall be true and accurate and shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of a Participant that is a Non-U.S. Lender, on or before the date such Participant purchases the participation) and promptly from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent.

- 102 -

(ii) Each Lender, Transferee (in the case of a Participant, if it has purchased a Participation from a Lender that is a Non-U.S. Person) and Agent that is not a Non-U.S. Lender shall furnish to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which it purchased its Participation) an accurate, properly completed and duly executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or successor form) establishing that such Lender (or Transferee) or Agent is not subject to U.S. backup withholding, and to the extent it may lawfully do so at such times, provide a new Form W-9 (or successor form) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.

Each Lender shall, from time to time after the initial delivery by Lender of the forms described above, whenever a lapse in time or change in such Lender’s circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence so delivered obsolete, expired or inaccurate, promptly (1) deliver to the Borrower, applicable Loan Party and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) renewals, amendments or additional or successor forms, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption required in order to confirm or establish such Non-U.S. Lender’s status or that such Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction in withholding Tax or backup withholding Tax or (2) notify Administrative Agent and the Borrower of its legal ineligibility to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence.

(g) If a payment made to an Agent, Lender or Transferee under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Agent, Lender or Transferee were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Agent, Lender or Transferee shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Agent, Lender or Transferee has or has not complied with such Agent, Lender or Transferee’s obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 5.13(f), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

- 103 -

(h) If any Agent, Lender or Transferee determines, in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or with respect to which the Borrower or any other Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.13, it shall promptly pay over any such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, and additional amounts paid, by the such Loan Party under this Section 5.13 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all related out-of-pocket expenses of such Agent, Lender or Transferee (as determined in the sole discretion exercised in good faith, of the Agent, Lender or Transferee) and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of such Agent, Lender or Transferee, agrees to repay the amount paid over to that Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Agent, Lender or Transferee in the event such Agent, Lender or Transferee is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will any Agent, Lender or Transferee be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (h) to the extent the payment of such amount would place such Agent, Lender or Transferee in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Agent, Lender or Transferee would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Agent, Lender or Transferee to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(i) Each Agent, Lender and Transferee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower in attempting to recover any Indemnified Taxes which, in the reasonable discretion of the Borrower, were improperly imposed, provided, however that the Borrower shall indemnify the Agent, Lender or Transferee for any costs it incurs in connection with complying with this subsection (i). The Borrower shall have the right to dispute, at its own cost, the imposition of any Indemnified Taxes (including interest and penalties) with the relevant Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Transferee to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. In no event will this subsection (i) relieve the Borrower of its obligation to pay additional amounts to an Administrative Agent, Lender or Transferee under this Section 5.13.

- 104 -

(j) The agreements in this Section 5.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(k) For purposes of this Section 5.13, the term “Lender” includes the Issuing Lender.

(l) For the avoidance of doubt, any payments made by the Administrative Agent to a Lender shall be treated as payments made by the applicable Loan Party.

5.14.   Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or expense (excluding any loss of anticipated profits) that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of EurocurrencySOFR Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making by the Borrower of a prepayment or conversion of EurocurrencySOFR Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the Borrower, on behalf of the Borrower, by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder for a period of 180 days.

5.15.    Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if any Change in Law after the date hereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain EurocurrencySOFR Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, (a) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make EurocurrencySOFR Loans, continue EurocurrencySOFR Loans as such and convert Base Rate Loans to EurocurrencySOFR Loans shall forthwith be canceled and (b) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as EurocurrencySOFR Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a EurocurrencySOFR Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrower in respect of such EurocurrencySOFR Loans shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 5.14.

5.16.    Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Sections 5.12, 5.13 or 5.15 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Sections 5.12, 5.13 or 5.15.

- 105 -

5.17.    Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances. The Borrower shall be permitted to replace with a replacement financial institution and/or terminate the Commitment of, and repay the Loans on a non-pro rata basis, of any Lender that (a) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 5.12 or 5.13, or gives a notice of illegality pursuant to Section 5.15, (b) becomes a Defaulting Lender or (c) becomes a Non-Consenting Lender, provided that, with respect to any such replacement financial institution or other institutional lender or investor (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) if applicable, prior to any such replacement, such Lender has not eliminated the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 5.12 or 5.13 or to eliminate any illegality described in a notice of illegality under Section 5.15, (iii) if applicable, the replacement financial institution or other institutional lender or investor shall purchase, at par (plus accrued interest and any premium payable hereunder to the extent required by Section 5.4), all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (iv) if applicable, the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 5.14 (as though Section 5.14 were applicable) if any EurocurrencySOFR Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (v) if applicable, the replacement financial institution or other institutional lender or investor, if not already a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vi) if applicable, the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement, without such Lender’s consent, in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.6 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein), (vii) if applicable, the Borrower (or, if agreed to by the replacement lender or other institutional lender or investor, such replacement lender or other institutional lender or investor) shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 5.12 or 5.13, as the case may be, in respect of any period prior to the date on which such replacement shall be consummated and any other payment obligations owed to such replaced Lender to the extent such replaced Lender has, in good faith, advised the Borrower (or, if agreed to by the replacement lender, such replacement lender) of the amount of the same in writing, and (viii) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender; provided that in the case of any Assignee in respect of Non-Consenting Lenders, the replacement Lender shall agree to the consent, waiver or amendment to which the Non-Consenting Lender did not agree.

5.18.    Loan Auctions. (a) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, on or after the Secured Leverage Restart Date, the Borrower shall be permitted to enter into an Auction so long as each of the Term Loan Lenders under the Facility to which an Auction Notice relates hereunder shall be offered an opportunity to ratably participate in the applicable Auction, provided, that (i) the Borrower shall be in compliance with the applicable Financial CovenantsSection 9.1 immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such Auction on a Pro Forma Basis as of the applicable Measurement Period (or with respect to Section 9.2, as of such date) and (ii) before and after giving effect to the Auction, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

- 106 -

(b) Concurrently with the effectiveness of any Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which the Borrower becomes a Term Loan Lender hereunder, any Loans held by the Borrower shall be automatically cancelled (and may not be resold by the Borrower) and no interest shall accrue on such Loans after such date. Upon the automatic cancellation of any Loans held by the Borrower, the Borrower shall no longer be a Term Loan Lender hereunder and such Loans shall be no longer outstanding for all purposes of this Agreement and all other Loan Documents, including, but not limited to (i) the making of, or the application of, any payments to the Term Loan Lenders pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the making of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iii) the calculation of financial covenants, (iv) the determination of Required Lenders, or (v) for any similar or related purpose, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(c) The parties hereto hereby agree that any Auction and cancellation of Loans (i) will not constitute a voluntary prepayment made by the Borrower for any purpose under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) shall not be subject to Sections 5.4, 5.11 or 12.7, (iii) the principal amount of the Term Loans so repurchased shall be applied on a pro rata basis to reduce the scheduled remaining installments of principal on such Term Loan and (iv) will not constitute Investments by the Borrower.

5.19.    Auction Procedures. (a) In connection with an Auction, the Borrower will provide notification to the Administrative Agent (for distribution to the Term Loan Lenders of the applicable Facility with respect to which such notice relates) of the Auction (an “Auction Notice”), which shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit L. Each Auction Notice shall contain (i) the total cash value of the bid, in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 with minimum increments of $1,000,000 (the “Auction Amount”), unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, (ii) the name of the relevant Facility or Facilities (which for the avoidance of doubt must be in respect of Term Loans) to which the Auction relates (the “Applicable Term Loan Facility”), (iii) the discount to par, which may be a single percentage or a range of percentages (the “Discount Range”) of the par principal amount of the Term Loans of each Applicable Term Loan Facility that represents the purchase price or range of purchase prices that could be paid in the Auction with respect to such Applicable Term Loan Facility and (iv) the date by which the Term Loan Lenders of the Applicable Term Loan Facility are required to indicate their election to participate in the Auction (the “Reply Date”), which shall be not less than five Business Days after delivery of the Auction Notice.

(b) In connection with any Auction, each Term Loan Lender of the Applicable Term Loan Facility or Applicable Term Loan Facilities may, in its sole discretion, participate in such Auction and may provide the Administrative Agent with a notice of participation (the “Return Bid”) on or before the Reply Date, substantially in the form of Exhibit M, which shall specify (i) a discount to par for Term Loans in the Applicable Term Loan Facility that must be expressed as a price (the “Reply Discount”), which must be within the Discount Range, and (ii) a principal amount of Term Loans in the Applicable Term Loan Facility that such Lender is willing to offer for sale at its Reply Discount which must be in increments of $500,000 (the “Reply Amount”). A Term Loan Lender in the Applicable Term Loan Facility may avoid the minimum increment amount condition solely when submitting a Reply Amount equal to such Term Loan Lender’s entire remaining amount of such Term Loans. Term Loan Lenders may only submit one Return Bid per Auction per Applicable Term Loan Facility but each Return Bid may contain up to three component bids only one of which can result in a Qualifying Bid (as defined below). Each Return Bid submitted to the Administrative Agent shall be irrevocable. In addition to the Return Bid, the participating Lender must execute and deliver, to be held in escrow by the Administrative Agent, an Assignment and Acceptance. The Borrower will not have any obligation to purchase any Term Loans at any price. The processing and recordation fees as set forth in Section 12.6 hereof shall not be applicable to any Auctions (it being understood and agreed that other fees may be applicable in connection with any Auction).

- 107 -

(c) Based on the Reply Discounts and Reply Amounts received by the Administrative Agent (who shall reasonably promptly provide the Borrower with a copy of all Reply Discounts), the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, will calculate the applicable discount (the “Applicable Discount”) for the Auction with respect to each Applicable Term Loan Facility, which will be the highest Reply Discount that is within the Discount Range and, in the event the Auction Amount cannot be paid in full at the highest Reply Discount, the Applicable Discount shall be the highest Reply Discount reducing in order to the lowest Reply Discount that is within the Discount Range which yields a prepayment in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lower of (i) the Auction Amount and (ii) the sum of all Reply Amounts. The Borrower shall purchase Term Loans (or the respective portions thereof) of the Applicable Term Loan Facility from each relevant Term Loan Lender with a Reply Discount that is equal to or greater than the Applicable Discount (“Qualifying Bids”) first to Qualifying Loans specifying the highest Reply Discount, then filling orders going to the next highest Reply Discount and then pro rata at the clearing level. If a Term Loan Lender in the Applicable Term Loan Facility has submitted a Return Bid containing multiple bids at different Reply Discounts, only the bid with the highest Reply Discount that is equal to or greater than the Applicable Discount will be deemed the Qualifying Bid of such Term Loan Lender. Each participating Term Loan Lender will receive notice of a Qualifying Bid as soon as reasonably practicable but in no case later than five Business Days from the date the Return Bid was due.

(d) The Borrower may withdraw an Auction at any time. In connection with any Auction, upon submission by a Term Loan Lender of a Return Bid, such Term Loan Lender (each, a “Qualifying Lender”) will be obligated to sell the entirety or its allocable portion of the Reply Amount, as the case may be, at the Applicable Discount.

(e) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.19, the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower, may amend or modify the procedures, notices, bids and Assignment and Acceptance Agreement in connection with any Auction (including, solely with Borrower’s consent), (i) any term to the extent Borrower’s commercial interests will be materially adversely affected by such amendment or modification and (ii) the economic terms to the extent no Term Loan Lenders have validly tendered Term Loans requested in an offer, but excluding economic terms of an auction after any Term Loan Lenders in the Applicable Term Loan Facility have validly tendered Term Loans requested in an offer, other than to increase the Auction Amount or raise the Discount Range; provided that no such amendments or modifications may be implemented after 24 hours prior to the date and time return bids are due.

- 108 -

(f) All parties to the relevant repurchases shall render customary “big-boy” disclaimer letters or any such disclaimers shall be incorporated into the terms of the Assignment and Assumption.

5.20.   Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 5.2(a), and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fees that do not accrue; provided that any such Commitment Fee accrued on any of the Revolving Credit Commitments of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior to the time such Revolving Credit Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Revolving Credit Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrower prior to such time;

(b) the Revolving Credit Commitment and Revolving Extensions of Credit of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders, all directly and adversely affected Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable, or other requisite Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to 12.1); provided that (i) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders and (ii) the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended, the maturity date of any Loan made by such Defaulting Lender may not be extended, the date for the payment of any principal, interest or fee payable hereunder (other than as a result of waiving default interest) shall not be extended, the interest rate of or any fees payable in respect of a Defaulting Lender’s Loan or Commitment may not be decreased (except as set forth in clause (a) above or (c)(iii) below or with respect to default interest as set forth in Section 5.8(c)), and the amount of principal of the Loans held by such Defaulting Lender may not be increased, reduced or forgiven, in each case without the consent of such Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower; provided that any payments made with respect to such increase in such Revolving Credit Commitment shall not be subject to Sections 5.11 or 12.7 with respect to any Defaulting Lender;

(c) if any Swing Line Exposure or L/C Obligations exists at the time a Revolving Credit Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) all or any part of such Swing Line Exposure and L/C Obligations shall automatically be reallocated among the Revolving Credit Lenders which are non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Percentages but only to the extent the Revolving Credit Commitment of any non-Defaulting Lender is not exceeded by such Lender’s Revolving Extensions of Credit (and any participations therein);

- 109 -

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swing Line Exposure of such Defaulting Lender (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) and (y) second, if requested by the Issuing Lender, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 10 for so long as such L/C Obligations are outstanding or until such Lender ceases to be a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 5.20(f);

(iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 5.20(c), the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 4.3 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations during the period such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations are cash collateralized; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any such fees under Section 4.3 that accrued with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations during the period prior to the time such Revolving Credit Lender became a Defaulting Lender and that remain unpaid shall still be due and payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent that such fee was otherwise due and payable by the Borrower prior to such time;

(iv)if the L/C Obligations of the non-Defaulting Lenders are reallocated pursuant to this Section 5.20(c), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 5.2(a) and Section 4.3 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Percentages; or

(v) if any Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations are neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 5.20(c), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lender or any Lender hereunder, all commitment fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment that was utilized by such L/C Obligations) and letter of credit fees payable under Section 4.3 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations shall be payable to the Issuing Lender until such L/C Obligations are cash collateralized and/or reallocated;

(d) so long as any Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loan and the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, if the reallocation described in clause (c)(i) cannot or can only partially be effected and/or, if requested by the Issuing Lender, cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 5.20(c), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swing Line Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 5.20(c)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein); and

- 110 -

(e) so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.7 but excluding Section 5.17) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated account and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, if such Defaulting Lender is a Revolving Credit Lender and so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the applicable Issuing Lender, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default Exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement and (y) be held as cash collateral for funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 4; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or an Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or such Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or drawings under Letters of Credit in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or drawings under Letters of Credit were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and drawings under Letters of Credit owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or drawings under Letters of Credit owed to, that Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder without giving effect to Section 5.20(c)(i). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 5.20(e)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

- 111 -

(f) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender (as applicable) each agrees in writing that a Defaulting Lender which is a Revolving Credit Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swing Line Exposure and L/C Obligations of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swing Line Loans) or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Revolving Credit Percentage, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees, or interest at the default rate of interest set forth in Section 5.8(c), accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the Extensions and the other transactions contemplated by this Section 5.21 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extending Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 5.2, 5.11, Section 12.7(a) or any other pro rata payment section) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit or restrict any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 5.21.

For the avoidance of doubt, no Lender shall have its Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments extended without the written consent of such Lender. All Extending Term Loans, Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other applicable Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrower and other Loan Parties as may be necessary in order to establish new Facilities in respect of Revolving Credit Commitments or Term Loans so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such new Facilities, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 5.21. In addition, any such amendment shall provide that, to the extent consented to by each relevant Issuing Lender, (a) with respect to any Letters of Credit the expiration date for which extend beyond the maturity date for the non-extended Revolving Credit Commitments, participations in such Letters of Credit on such maturity date shall be reallocated from Lenders holding Revolving Credit Commitments to Lenders holding Extended Revolving Credit Commitments in accordance with the terms of such amendment (provided that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding Revolving Credit Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such Revolving Credit Commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including, without limitation, the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly) and (b) limitations on drawings of Revolving Credit Loans and issuances, extensions and amendments to Letters of Credit shall be implemented giving effect to the foregoing reallocation prior to such reallocation actually occurring to ensure that sufficient Extended Revolving Credit Commitments are available to participate in any such Letters of Credit. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extensions the respective Loan Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the latest termination date of any Extending Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments so that such maturity date is extended to the latest termination date of any Extending Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (or such later date as may be advised by local counsel to the Administrative Agent) and in connection therewith, to the extent requested by Administrative Agent, the respective Loan Parties shall (at their expense) deliver to the Administrative Agent a date down endorsement to the mortgagee’s title insurance policies issued to Administrative Agent with respect to any such amended Mortgages.

- 115 -

(d) In connection with any Extension, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent at least 10 Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 5.21.

No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless such Agent shall have received notice from a Lender, Parent, Holdings or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent shall receive such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

11.6.          Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither any of the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, Property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, Property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the Business, Property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of such Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

- 175 -

11.7.          Indemnification. To the extent of the amounts that the Borrower is required to pay or reimburse under this Agreement to the applicable Agent (and its Affiliates, directors, employees, agents and attorneys), in its capacity as such, but the Borrower fails to pay such amounts, the Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent (and its Affiliates, directors, employees, agents and attorneys) in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by Parent, Holdings or the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Parent, Holdings or the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Aggregate Exposure Percentages immediately prior to such date), for, and to save each Agent harmless from and against, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall have the right to deduct any amount owed to it by any Lender under this Section from any payment made by it to such Lender hereunder. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

11.8.          Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity.

- 176 -

11.9.          Successor Agents and Other Persons. (a) The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 10 Business Days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower may remove such Defaulting Lender from such role upon 15 days’ notice to the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent shall resign or be removed as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 10(g), (h) or (i) with respect to Parent, Holdings or the Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 10 Business Days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation or a Borrower’s notice of removal, as applicable, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After any retiring or removed Agent’s resignation or removal as Agent, the provisions of this Section 11 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(a) Any Issuing Lender may resign at any time by giving 10 Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower. After the resignation of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the retiring Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit or to extend, renew or increase any existing Letter of Credit. If Wells Fargo Bank, National Association resigns as an Issuing Lender and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association is at such time the Administrative Agent hereunder, then the consent of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as Administrative Agent for the addition of a new Issuing Lender hereunder as set forth in clause (b) of the definition of “Issuing Lender” shall not be required.

(b) The Swing Line Lender may resign at any time by giving 10 Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower. After the resignation of the Swing Line Lender hereunder, the retiring Swing Line Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of a Swing Line Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it prior to such resignation, but shall not be required to make any additional Swing Line Loans. From and after the resignation of the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower may designate one of the Revolving Credit Lenders as the Swing Line Lender subject to the consent of such Revolving Credit Lender and notification to the Lenders, and such replacement Swing Line Lender shall have the rights and obligations of the Swing Line Lender hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by such replacement Swing Line Lender.

- 177 -

11.10.       Authorization to Release Liens and Guarantees. The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to effect any release of Liens or guarantee obligations contemplated by Section 12.16.

11.11.       The Arrangers, Joint Bookrunners, Co-Syndication Agents and Co-Documentation Agents. Neither the Arrangers, nor the Joint Bookrunners, nor the Co-Syndication Agents, nor the Co-Documentation Agents, in their respective capacities as such, shall have any duties or responsibilities, and in their capacities as such, none of them shall incur any liability, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

11.12.       Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any Requirement of Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other reason, or if the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that a payment was made to a Lender pursuant to this Agreement without deduction of applicable withholding tax from such payment, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 11.12. The agreements in this Section 11.12 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender.

11.13.       Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party or Subsidiary of any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 4.3, 5.2 and 12.5) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

- 178 -

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each Issuing Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agents and their agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Agents under Sections 4.3, 5.2 and 12.5.

11.14.      Erroneous Payments.

(a)           Each Lender, each Issuing Lender, each other Secured Party and any other party hereto hereby severally agrees that if (i) the Administrative Agent notifies (which such notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error) such Lender or Issuing Lender or any other Secured Party (or the Lender Affiliate of a Secured Party) or any other Person that has received funds from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates, either for its own account or on behalf of a Lender, Issuing Lender or other Secured Party (each such recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Payment Recipient were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Payment Recipient) or (ii) any Payment Recipient receives any payment from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, as applicable, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, as applicable, or (z) that such Payment Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted or received in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) then, in each case, an error in payment shall be presumed to have been made (any such amounts specified in clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 11.14(a), whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise; individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”), then, in each case, such Payment Recipient is deemed to have knowledge of such error at the time of its receipt of such Erroneous Payment; provided that nothing in this Section shall require the Administrative Agent to provide any of the notices specified in clauses (i) or (ii) above. Each Payment Recipient agrees that it shall not assert any right or claim to any Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

- 179 -

(b)          Without limiting the immediately preceding clause (a), each Payment Recipient agrees that, in the case of clause (a)(ii) above, it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing of such occurrence.

(c)          In the case of either clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above, such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and upon demand from the Administrative Agent such Payment Recipient shall (or, shall cause any Person who received any portion of an Erroneous Payment on its behalf to), promptly, but in all events no later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds and in the currency so received, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

(d)          In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (c), from any Lender that is a Payment Recipient or an Affiliate of a Payment Recipient (such unrecovered amount as to such Lender, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), then at the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and upon the Administrative Agent’s written notice to such Lender (i) such Lender shall be deemed to have made a cashless assignment of the full face amount of the portion of its Loans (but not its Commitments) of the relevant Class with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) to the Administrative Agent or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s applicable lending affiliate in an amount that is equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) plus any accrued and unpaid interest on such assigned amount, without further consent or approval of any party hereto and without any payment by the Administrative Agent or its applicable lending affiliate as the assignee of such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (1) any assignment contemplated in this clause (d) shall be made without any requirement for any payment or other consideration paid by the applicable assignee or received by the assignor, (2) the provisions of this clause (d) shall govern in the event of any conflict with the terms and conditions of Section 12.6 and (3) the Administrative Agent may reflect such assignments in the Register without further consent or action by any other Person.

(e)          Each party hereto hereby agrees that (x) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent (1) shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Payment Recipient with respect to such amount and (2) is authorized to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Payment Recipient under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Payment Recipient from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 11.14 or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement, (y) the receipt of an Erroneous Payment by a Payment Recipient shall not for the purpose of this Agreement be treated as a payment, prepayment, repayment, discharge or other satisfaction of any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from, or on behalf of (including through the exercise of remedies under any Loan Document), the Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making a payment on the Obligations and (z) to the extent that an Erroneous Payment was in any way or at any time credited as payment or satisfaction of any of the Obligations, the Obligations or any part thereof that were so credited, and all rights of the Payment Recipient, as the case may be, shall be reinstated and continue in full force and effect as if such payment or satisfaction had never been received, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from, or on behalf of (including through the exercise of remedies under any Loan Document), the Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making a payment on the Obligations; provided that this ‎Section 11.14 shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the Obligations of the Borrower relative to the amount (or timing for payment) of the Obligations that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been made by the Administrative Agent.

- 180 -

(f)          Each party’s obligations under this Section 11.14 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of right or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

(g)          Nothing in this Section 11.14 will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of the Administrative Agent hereunder arising from any Payment Recipient’s receipt of an Erroneous Payment.

SECTION 12. MISCELLANEOUS

Neither this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof, may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.1.

- 181 -

(a) in each case without the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby:

(i)           (1) forgive the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity or termination of any Loan, Commitment or Reimbursement Obligation;

(2) extend the scheduled date or decrease the amount of any amortization payment in respect of any Loan (it being understood that the waiver of (or amendment to the terms of) any mandatory prepayment of the Loans shall not constitute a postponement of any date scheduled for the payment of principal or interest);

(3) reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof (it being understood that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the default rate of interest set forth in Section 5.8(c) or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest or letter of credit fees at such default rate);

(4) increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Commitment of any Lender (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 7.2 or the waiver of any Default, Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not constitute an extension or increase of any Commitment of any Lender); or

(5) amend, modify or waive the application of the proceeds from any realization or recovery on the Collateral;

(ii)           amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section or reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, release all or substantially all of the Collateral, release Parent as a Guarantor or release all or substantially all of the aggregate value of the Guarantees of the Obligations, in each case without the consent of all Lenders (in each case, except as permitted by any Loan Document);

(iii)          amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 11, or any other provision affecting any Agent or Arranger without the consent of such Agent or Arranger directly and adversely affected thereby;

(vii)         the L/C Commitment may be increased with the consent of the Revolving Credit Lenders (other than Defaulting Lenders) holding more than 50% of the Total Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect or, if the Revolving Credit Commitments have been terminated, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit then outstanding (the “Required Revolving Lenders”), each Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no Issuing Lender’s Letter of Credit Commitment may be increased without the consent of such Issuing Lender; and

(viii)        the Swing Line Commitment may be increased with the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders, the Swing Line Bank and the Administrative Agent.

Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification effected pursuant to the foregoing shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, Parent, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon. Any such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification shall be effected by a written instrument signed by the parties required to sign pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section; provided, that delivery of an executed signature page of any such instrument by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 12.1, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that as set forth in Section 5.20.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 12.1, (a) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended with the consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent it may withhold in its sole discretion or with respect to which consent the Administrative Agent may in its sole discretion seek the consent of the Required Lenders, at the reasonable request of the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if such amendment is delivered in order to cure any ambiguity, conflict or defect in the Loan Documents, (b) in the event that the Borrower requests that this Agreement be modified or amended in a manner that would require the unanimous consent of all of the Lenders or all of the directly and adversely affected Lenders and such modification or amendment is agreed to by the Required Lenders, then with the consent of the Borrower and the Required Lenders the Borrower and the Required Lenders shall be permitted to amend the Agreement without the consent of the Non-Consenting Lenders to provide for (i) the termination of the Commitment of each Non-Consenting Lender that are (w) Revolving Credit Lenders, (x) Tranche B Term Loan Lenders or other Lenders of Term Loans or (y) all three, at the election of the Borrower, (ii) the addition to this Agreement of one or more other financial institutions (each of which shall be a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund), or an increase in the Commitment of one or more of the Required Lenders or Lenders (with the written consent thereof), so that the total Commitment after giving effect to such amendment shall be in the same amount as the total Commitment immediately before giving effect to such amendment, (iii) if any Loans are outstanding at the time of such amendment, the making of such additional Loans by such new financial institutions or Required Lender or Lenders, as the case may be, as may be necessary to repay in full, at par, the outstanding Loans of the Non-Consenting Lenders immediately before giving effect to such amendment (such par payment to include principal, interest, fees, any premiums required hereunder and other payment obligations owed to such Non-Consenting Lender to the extent such Non-Consenting Lender has, in good faith, advised the buyer of its Loans of the amount of the same in writing) together with and (iv) such other modifications to this Agreement as may be appropriate to effect the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), (c) the Administrative Agent may, without the consent of any Lender, enter into amendments or modifications to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or enter into additional Loan Documents as the Administrative Agent reasonably deems appropriate in order to implement any Replacement Rate or otherwise effectuate the terms of Section 5.10(b) in accordance with the terms of Section 5.10(b), (d) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended (or amended and restated) without the consent of the Required Lenders (or any other Lender) as otherwise explicitly set forth herein (including to effect amendments (including amendments and restatements), supplements or other modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate to effect the provisions of Sections 2.4, 2.5, 3.3, 3.4 or 5.21) and (e) in connection with an amendment that addresses solely a re-pricing transaction in which any Class of Term Loans is refinanced with a replacement Class of term loans bearing (or is modified in such a manner such that the resulting term loans bear) a lower Effective Yield (which may include other customary technical amendments related thereto, including providing that such replacement term loans may have a prepayment premium in connection therewith) (a “Permitted Repricing Amendment”), only the consent of the Lenders holding Term Loans subject to such permitted repricing transaction that will continue as a Lender in respect of the repriced tranche of Term Loans or modified Term Loans shall be required for such Permitted Repricing Amendment.

- 183 -

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 12.1, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the Security Documents and related documents executed by the Loan Parties or the Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be, together with this Agreement, amended and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local Law or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure any ambiguities or defects or (iii) to cause such Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, Security Document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

- 184 -

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 12.1, if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error (including, but not limited to, an incorrect cross-reference) or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any exhibit, schedule or other attachment to any Loan Document), then the Administrative Agent (acting in its sole discretion) and the Borrower or any other relevant Loan Party shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document. Notification of such amendment shall be made by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders promptly upon such amendment becoming effective.

12.2.          Notices. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices, requests and demands to or upon the respective parties hereto to be effective shall be in writing (including by telecopy or electronic mail), and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made when delivered, or three Business Days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, or, in the case of telecopy, when sent and receipt has been confirmed by telephone or electronic mail, addressed (i) in the case of Parent, Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders as set forth below, (ii) in the case of the Lenders, as set forth in an administrative questionnaire delivered to the Administrative Agent or on Schedule I to the Lender Addendum to which such Lender is a party or, in the case of a Lender which becomes a party to this Agreement pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, in such Assignment and Acceptance or pursuant to such agreement pursuant to which such Lender becomes a party hereto (i.e., an Incremental Amendment) or (iii) in the case of any party, to such other address as such party may hereafter notify to the other parties hereto:

12.3.          No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

12.4.          Survival of Representations and Warranties.

12.5.          Payment of Expenses; Indemnification. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers for their reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the syndication of the Facilities (including the charges of any Platform) and the Administrative Agent in connection with development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (whether or not such amendment, supplement or modification is completed) and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, limited to, in the case of counsel, all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses related to creating, perfecting or preserving any of the Liens contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents and all reasonable fees and disbursements and other charges of one primary counsel to the Administrative Agent (and one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may include each jurisdiction where a Mortgaged Property is located and, without duplication, each other jurisdiction where a Guarantor is organized)), (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender and the Administrative Agent for reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents (including in connection with any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect thereof), limited to, in the case of counsel, the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and disbursements of one primary counsel to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (taken as a whole), one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and, in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for similarly situated Lenders, (c) to pay, indemnify, or reimburse the Administrative Agent for, and hold the Administrative Agent harmless from, any and all Other Taxes and (d) to pay, indemnify or reimburse each Lender, each Agent, each Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender, the Arrangers, their respective affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, trustees, employees, partners, agents and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnitee”) for, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against, any and all other liabilities, obligations, actual losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the arrangement, syndication, execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of the Loans or any Environmental Claim, or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law, applicable to the operations of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any of the Properties and the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and disbursements and other charges of legal counsel (limited to one primary counsel to the Indemnitees (taken as a whole), one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and, in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for similarly situated Indemnitees) in connection with any of the foregoing or in connection with any claims, actions or proceedings commenced or threatened by any Person, whether or not any such Indemnitee shall be designated as a party or a potential party thereto and whether or not such matter is initiated by or against Parent, Holdings, Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with any of the foregoing (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), in each case, without regard to the exclusive or contributory negligence of any Indemnitee; provided, that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to an Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent (i) such Indemnified Liabilities are found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or of any affiliate, and any of their respective director, officer, trustee, partner, agent, controlling person or employee of such Indemnitee, (ii) such Indemnified Liabilities are found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment to have resulted from a material breach by such Indemnitee of such Indemnitee’s or of any affiliate, and any of their respective director, officer, trustee, partner, agent, controlling person or employee of such Indemnitee, obligations hereunder, (iii) resulting from disputes solely among such Indemnitee and other Indemnitees (other than any claims (x) arising out of any act or omission of any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party or (y) against any of any Arranger or any Agent or any Affiliate thereof acting in their capacity as an Arranger or Agent) (iv) settled by such Indemnitee without Parent’s and Borrower’s consent (provided, however, if at any time an Indemnitee shall have requested in accordance with this Agreement that you reimburse such Indemnitee for legal or other expenses in connection with investigating, responding to or defending any claim, action or proceeding, Parent and the Borrower shall be liable, on a joint and several basis, for any settlement of any claim, action or proceeding effected without the written consent of Parent and the Borrower if (x) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by Parent and the Borrower of such request for reimbursement and (y) Parent or Borrower shall not have reimbursed such Indemnitee in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement; provided further, that if any such claim, action or proceeding is settled with the written consent of Parent and Borrower, Parent and Borrower hereby agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from and against any and all actual Indemnified Liabilities by reason of such settlement in accordance herewith), or (v) relate solely to a Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials at a Real Property first caused and first created after the Administrative Agent sells the respective Real Property pursuant to a foreclosure or has accepted a deed in lieu of foreclosure and resulting solely from acts by Persons other than the Loan Parties. This Section 12.5 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than Other Taxes any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

- 188 -

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each party hereto agrees that it shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof (provided that the foregoing shall not in any event limit the indemnity and reimbursement obligations set forth in this Section 12.5 to the extent that any such indirect, consequential or punitive damages are included in any third party claim for which an Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or reimbursement pursuant to this Section 12.5). No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent such damages have resulted from such Indemnitee’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 30 days after written demand therefor. Statements for amounts payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be submitted to the attention of the Chief Financial Officer (Telephone No. 212-652-9384) (Fax No. 212-354-3089972.595.5000), at the address of the Borrower set forth in Section 12.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Borrower in a written notice to the Administrative Agent. The agreements in this Section shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

12.6.        Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any affiliate of the Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section.

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

(A)     the Borrower, provided that (x) no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund (as defined below), (y) no consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under Sections 10(a), (g), (h) or (i), with respect to Parent, Holdings or the Borrower has occurred and is continuing and (z) the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to the relevant assignment to a Term Loan Lender if it has not objected to such assignment in writing to the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days after a Responsible Officer’s receipt of written notice thereof;

- 189 -

(B)     the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Loan or Commitment to the Borrower (in accordance with Section 12.6(b)(ii)(D) below) or a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and

(C)     solely with respect to any assignment in respect of Revolving Credit Commitments, each Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender; provided that no consent of any Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments to another Revolving Credit Lender.

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

(A)     except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans under any Facility, the amount of the Commitments or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 in the case of any Revolving Credit Commitments (or, in the case of the Term Loans, $1,000,000) unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that (1) no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under Sections 10(a), (g), (h) or (i) (with respect to Parent, Holdings or Borrower) has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its affiliates or Approved Funds, if any;

(B)     (1) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (payable among the Lenders party to the Assignment and Acceptance to the Administrative Agent; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment) and any documents required by Section 5.13 to the extent not already delivered, (2) the assigning Lender shall have paid in full any amounts owing by it to the Administrative Agent and (3) the Administrative Agent shall have recorded such transfer in the Register;

(C)     the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in which the Assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws; and

- 190 -

(D)     the Assignee shall not be (x) a natural person, (y) Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent or (z) a Defaulting Lender; provided that the Borrower may, with respect to Term Loans, be an Assignee in connection with (1) an Auction or (2) open market purchases on non-pro rata purchases, subject to the following limitations: (A) the principal amount of such Term Loans, along with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all rights and obligations as a Lender related thereto, so assigned or transferred to the Borrower shall be deemed immediately and automatically cancelled and extinguished, without any further action on the part of the Borrower, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person, on the date of such assignment or transfer and the Borrower shall neither obtain nor have any rights as a Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by virtue of such assignment, (B) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans of the remaining Lenders shall reflect such cancellation and extinguishment of the Term Loans then held by the Borrower, (C) the Borrower shall promptly provide notice to the Administrative Agent of such assignment or transfer of such Term Loans, and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notice, shall reflect the cancellation of the applicable Term Loans in the Register, (D) all parties to the relevant repurchases shall render customary “big-boy” disclaimer letters or any such disclaimers shall be incorporated into the terms of the Assignment and Assumption, (E) the Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any Revolving Credit Loans for any such assignment, and (F) the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted to the assigning Lender and the Administrative Agent that the requirements set forth in this Section 12.6(b)(ii)(D) shall have been satisfied upon consummation of the applicable assignment.

For the purposes of this Section 12.6, “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

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

- 191 -

(iii)     Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.12, 5.13, 5.14 and 12.5). An Assignee shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.13 unless such Assignee complies with Section 5.13(f). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 12.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv)     The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of and interest on the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”) and shall make such Register available for inspection by the Borrower from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Without in any way limiting each Lender’s ability to sell participations as set forth in Section 12.6(c), the right and title to a Loan or L/C Obligation may be transferred only upon proper notation in the Register. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection from time to time upon reasonable prior notice to the Administrative Agent by (i) the Borrower and (ii) any Lender (but only to the extent of entries in the Register that are applicable to such Lender). Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that the relevant parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

- 192 -

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender 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 and (D) the Participant shall not be (x) a natural person, (y) Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or (z) to the extent the list has been made available to all Lenders, a Disqualified Institution. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that requires the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby pursuant to clauses (a)(i), (ii) and (v) of the proviso to the second sentence of Section 12.1. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.12, 5.13 and 5.14 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.7(b) as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 12.7(a) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.12 or 5.13 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s written consent. Any Participant that is a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.13 unless such Participant complies with Section 5.13(f).

- 193 -

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other Person, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(e) The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in paragraph (d) above.

(f) If the Borrower wishes to replace the Loans or Commitments under any Facility with ones having different terms, it shall have the option, with the written consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three Business Days’ advance notice to the Lenders under such Facility, instead of prepaying the Loans or reducing or terminating the Commitments to be replaced, to (i) require the Lenders under such Facility to assign such Loans or Commitments to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with Section 12.1. Pursuant to any such assignment, all Loans and Commitments to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the Lenders under such Facility in the same manner as would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid plus payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon, any amounts owing pursuant to Section 5.14, any premiums required hereunder and other payment obligations owed to such Lender to the extent such Lender has, in good faith, advised the Administrative Agent of the amount of the same in writing). By receiving such purchase price, the Lenders under such Facility shall automatically be deemed to have assigned the Loans or Commitments under such Facility pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the Collateral during any such replacement.

12.7.          Adjustments; Set-off. (a) Except to the extent that this Agreement provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular Facility, (i) except to the extent that the Loan Documents provide that only the Term Loans shall be secured by the Mortgaged Property of the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof located in the State of New York (the “New York Collateral”), if any Lender shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or receive any Collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 10(g), (h), (i) or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or Collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other Lender, or (ii) if, as a result of any exercise of rights and remedies with respect to the New York Collateral, any Lender holding a Term Loan shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 10(g), (h), (i) or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to any other Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other Lender, such benefited Lender (each benefited Lender referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above, a “Benefited Lender”) shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of the Obligations owing to each such other Lender, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such Collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such Collateral, or the proceeds thereof, ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment, benefits or proceeds is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

- 194 -

(b) Subject to Section 12.21 hereof, in addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender and its Affiliates shall have the right, without prior notice to Parent, Holdings or the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by Parent, Holdings and the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final but not including any Excluded Accounts (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured), at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of Parent, Holdings or the Borrower, as the case may be. Each Lender or its Affiliate, as the case may be, agrees promptly to notify Parent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender or such Affiliate, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

12.8.        U.S.A. Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the U.S.A. Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow the Lenders to identify the Borrower and the Guarantors in accordance with the U.S.A. Patriot Act.

12.9.        Counterparts; Electronic Execution.

. (a)         This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement or of a Lender Addendum by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with Holdings and the Administrative Agent.

- 195 -

(b)            Electronic Execution. The words “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery” and words of like import in or related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document, amendment, approval, consent, waiver, modification, information, notice, certificate, report, statement, disclosure, or authorization to be signed or delivered in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures or execution in the form of an Electronic Record, and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. Each party hereto agrees that any Electronic Signature or execution in the form of an Electronic Record shall be valid and binding on itself and each of the other parties hereto to the same extent as a manual, original signature. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the parties of a manually signed paper which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed paper converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent is under no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that, without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature from any party hereto, the Administrative Agent and the other parties hereto shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the executing party without further verification and (ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by an original manually executed counterpart thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby (A) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and any of the Loan Parties, electronic images of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (in each case, including with respect to any signature pages thereto) shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, and (B) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents based solely on the lack of paper original copies of any Loan Documents, including with respect to any signature pages thereto.

12.10.      Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

- 196 -

12.11.     Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any Arranger, any Agent or any Lender relative to subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, those certain provisions set forth in that certain engagement letter among Parent, Borrower, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, dated as of March 25, 2019 that expressly survive the termination of such engagement letter and the entering into of definitive financing documentation shall survive the entering into of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document, when all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable and obligations in respect of any Specified Hedge Agreement or Specified Cash Management Agreement) have been paid in full, all Commitments have terminated or expired and no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding (except (i) Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding solely for purposes of this Section 12.16(b) if such Letters of Credit have been cash collateralized or another form of credit support has been provided to each relevant Issuing Lender, in each case acceptable to the relevant Issuing Lender and (ii) if the Qualified Counterparty in respect of a Specified Hedge Agreement and the Borrower have advised the Administrative Agent in writing (pursuant to clause (iii) of the definition of “Qualified Counterparty”) that the Administrative Agent is not authorized to release the Collateral and the guarantee in the manner contemplated by this Section 12.16(b) unless such Qualified Counterparty is provided with a substitute Lien and/or substitute guarantee or other form of collateral satisfactory to such Qualified Counterparty, then the Administrative Agent shall not release the Collateral and the guarantee in the manner contemplated by this Section 12.16(b) unless it has been advised in writing by the Qualified Counterparty that it has no objections to the release in full of the Lien and guarantee in the manner contemplated by this Section 12.16(b)), (A) the Collateral shall be automatically released from the Liens created by the Security Documents, (B) the guarantee obligations of the Guarantors shall be automatically released, and (C) the Loan Documents and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party under the Loan Documents shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person.

Any such release of guarantee obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such guarantee obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its Property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

12.17.      Accounting Changes. In the event that any “Accounting Change” (as defined below) shall occur and such change results in a change in the method of calculation of financial covenants, standards or terms in this Agreement, if the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment or the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment, then Parent, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such provisions of this Agreement so as to equitably reflect such Accounting Changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating the financial condition of Parent and the Borrower shall be the same after such Accounting Changes as if such Accounting Changes had not been made. Until such time as such an amendment shall have been executed and delivered by Parent, Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, all financial covenants, standards and terms in this Agreement shall continue to be calculated or construed as if such Accounting Changes had not occurred. “Accounting Changes” refers to changes in accounting principles required by the promulgation of any rule, regulation, pronouncement or opinion by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or, if applicable, the SEC. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any change in GAAP that would require operating leases to be treated similarly to capital leases shall not be given effect in the definition of Indebtedness or any related definitions or in the computation of any financial ratio or requirement hereunder.

12.18.      Delivery of Lender Addenda.

(a) Each Revolving Credit Lender and each Lender that is not a “Lender” under the Existing Credit Agreement immediately prior to the Closing Date shall become a party to this Agreement by delivering to the Administrative Agent a Lender Addendum in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-1 duly executed by such Lender, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

- 201 -

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) each Tranche B Term Loan Lender under the Existing Credit Agreement immediately prior to the Closing Date (each, an “Existing Tranche B Term Loan Lender”) that executes and delivers a Lender Addendum (Cashless Roll) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-2 (a “Lender Addendum (Cashless Roll)”) agrees to (A) continue all (or such lesser amount as notified to such Lender by the Administrative Agent prior to the Closing Date) of its “Tranche B Term Loans” under the Existing Credit Agreement outstanding immediately before giving effect to this Agreement (the “Existing Tranche B Term Loans”) as a Tranche B Term Loan hereunder on the Closing Date in a principal amount equal to such Existing Tranche B Term Loan Lender’s Existing Tranche B Term Loans (or such lesser amount as may be notified to such Lender by the Administrative Agent prior to the Closing Date) (each such Tranche B Term Loan Lender, a “Continuing Tranche B Term Loan Lender”) and (B) provide a new Tranche B Term Loan Commitment hereunder in an amount equal to the portion of the amount set forth in such Existing Tranche B Term Loan Lender’s Lender Addendum (Cashless Roll) as such Tranche B Term Loan Lender’s proposed Tranche B Term Loan Commitment that is in excess of such Continuing Tranche B Term Loan Lender’s Existing Tranche B Term Loans (or such lesser amount as may be notified to such Lender by the Administrative Agent prior to the Closing Date) and (ii) each Person (other than a Revolving Credit Lender) that executes and delivers a Lender Addendum in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-1 or that provides a new Tranche B Term Loan Commitment pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (i) (collectively, the “Additional Tranche B Term Loan Lenders”) agrees to take by assignment on the Closing Date from one or more Exiting Lenders (as defined below) a principal amount of Tranche B Term Loans equal to such Additional Tranche B Term Loan Lender’s new Tranche B Term Loan Commitment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Existing Tranche B Term Loans of a Continuing Tranche B Term Loan Lender must be continued in whole and may not be continued in part unless otherwise notified by the Administrative Agent prior to the Closing Date.

(c) Any Existing Tranche B Term Loan Lender that does not deliver a Lender Addendum (Cashless Roll) (each, an “Exiting Lender”) shall have been replaced or terminated (or substantially concurrently with the effectiveness of this Agreement shall be replaced or terminated) in accordance with Section 5.17 of the Existing Credit Agreement pursuant to the reallocations contemplated herein.

(d) Any Exiting Lender whose Existing Tranche B Term Loans are repaid or assigned to one or more Additional Tranche B Term Loan Lender on the Closing Date in accordance with this Agreement shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.14 of the Existing Credit Agreement with respect thereto. The Continuing Tranche B Term Loan Lenders hereby waive the benefits of Section 5.14 of the Existing Credit Agreement with respect to that portion of the Tranche B Term Loans of such Lender continued hereunder.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the continuation of Existing Tranche B Term Loans may be implemented pursuant to other procedures specified by the Administrative Agent, including by replacement of such Existing Tranche B Term Loans by a deemed repayment of such Existing Tranche B Term Loans of a Continuing Tranche B Term Loan Lender followed by a subsequent deemed assignment to it of new Tranche B Term Loans in the same amount.

- 202 -

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree that, at the sole option of the Administrative Agent, any Lender with Existing Tranche B Term Loans that are replaced as contemplated hereby (whether by assignment of its Existing Tranche B Term Loans to one or more Additional Tranche B Term Loan Lenders or otherwise) shall, automatically upon receipt (or deemed receipt) of the amount necessary to purchase such Lender’s Existing Tranche B Term Loans so replaced, at par, and pay all accrued interest thereon, be deemed to have assigned such Loans pursuant to a form of Assignment and Acceptance and, accordingly, no other action by the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Loan Parties shall be required in connection therewith. The Lenders hereby agree to waive any notice requirements of the Existing Credit Agreement in connection with the replacement of Existing Tranche B Term Loans contemplated hereby (whether by assignment of its Existing Tranche B Term Loans to one or more Additional Tranche B Term Loan Lenders or otherwise).

12.19.      WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

12.20.      Usury Savings Clause. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to Borrower.

- 203 -

12.21.      Amendment and Restatement.

(a) On the Closing 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 to evidence 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 Closing Date).

(b) On and after the Closing Date, (i) all references to the Existing Credit Agreement in the Loan Documents (other than this Agreement) shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement and (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.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, all “baskets” set forth in this Agreement shall be calculated from the Closing Date.

12.22.      Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

12.23.      Certain ERISA Matters.

(a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and not, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

- 204 -

(i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments or this Agreement,

(b) In addition, unless sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender, such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower, that the Administrative Agent is not a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

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

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

(b) As used in this Section 12.24, the following terms have the following meanings:
