at the option of the Parent Borrower, the date that the definitive agreement (or other relevant definitive documentation) (other than the making by any Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, of any Credit Extension, unless otherwise agreed by such Lender or Issuing Bank) for or public announcement of such Investment or acquisition or repayment, repurchase or refinancing or Incurrence of Indebtedness is entered into or the date of any notice, which may be conditional, of such repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness is given to the holders of such Indebtedness (the “Transaction Commitment Date”) may be used as the applicable date of determination, as the case may be, in each case with such pro forma adjustments as are appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of “Pro Forma Basis” or “Consolidated EBITDA.” For the avoidance of doubt, if Parent Borrower elects to use the Transaction Commitment Date as the applicable date of determination in accordance with the foregoing, (a) any fluctuation or change in the (i) Payment Conditions, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Fixed Charges, Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Capital Expenditures, Covenant Consolidated Fixed Charges, Covenant Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Net Income, Consolidated EBITDA, Four Quarter Consolidated EBITDA, Consolidated Total Assets, Consolidated Cash Interest Expense and/or Pro Forma Cost Savings of the Parent Borrower and (ii) the applicable exchange rate utilized in calculating compliance with any Dollar-based provision of this Agreement, from the Transaction Commitment Date to the date of consummation of such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness, will not be taken into account for purposes of determining whether any Indebtedness or Lien that is being incurred in connection with such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness, or

80

in connection with compliance by the Parent Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries with any other provision of the Credit Documents or any other transaction undertaken in connection with such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness, is permitted to be incurred and (b) until such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness is consummated or such definitive agreements (or other relevant definitive documentation) are terminated (or conditions in any conditional notice can no longer be met or public announcements with respect thereto are withdrawn), such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness and all transactions proposed to be undertaken in connection therewith (including the incurrence of Indebtedness and Liens) will be given pro forma effect (except, for the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of determining compliance with the Financial Performance Covenant) when determining compliance of other transactions (including the incurrence of Indebtedness and Liens unrelated to such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness (other than the making by any Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, of any Credit Extension, unless otherwise agreed by such Lender or Issuing Bank)) that are consummated after the Transaction Commitment Date and on or prior to the date of consummation of such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness and any such transactions (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) will be deemed to have occurred on the date the definitive agreements (or other relevant definitive documentation) are entered into or public announcement is made and deemed to be outstanding thereafter for purposes of calculating any baskets or ratios under the Credit Documents after the date of such agreement and before the date of consummation of such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness.

(f) For purposes hereof, the “Maximum Fixed Repurchase Price” of any Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that does not have a fixed repurchase price shall be calculated in accordance with the terms of such Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock as if such Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock were purchased on any date on which Consolidated Funded Indebtedness shall be required to be determined pursuant to this Agreement, and if such price is based upon, or measured by, the Fair Market Value of such Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock.

(g) For the purposes of Sections 5.11, 6.4, 6.5 and 6.6, an allocation of assets to a division of a Restricted Subsidiary that is a limited liability company, or an allocation of assets to a series of a Restricted Subsidiary that is a limited liability company, shall be treated as a transfer of assets from one Restricted Subsidiary to another Restricted Subsidiary.

1.3 Accounting Terms.

(a) All accounting terms not specifically or completely defined herein shall be construed in conformity with, and all financial data (including financial ratios and other financial calculations) required to be submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall be prepared in conformity with, GAAP, as in effect from time to time.

(b) If at any time any change in GAAP, or any election by the Parent Borrower to report in IFRS in lieu of GAAP for financial reporting purposes, or the application thereof would affect the computation or interpretation of any financial ratio, basket, requirement or other provision set forth in any Credit Document, and either the Parent Borrower or the Requisite Lenders shall so request, the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio, basket, requirement or other provision to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP or the application thereof (subject to the approval of the Requisite Lenders not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that, until so amended, (i) (A) such ratio, basket, requirement or other provision shall continue to be computed or interpreted in accordance with GAAP or the application thereof prior to such change therein and (B) the Parent Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders a written reconciliation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent,

81

between calculations of such ratio, basket, requirement or other provision made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP or the application thereof or (ii) the Parent Borrower may elect to fix GAAP (for purposes of such ratio, basket, requirement or other provision) as of another later date notified in writing to the Administrative Agent from time to time.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all such financial statements shall be prepared, and all financial covenants contained herein or in any other Credit Document shall be calculated, in each case, without giving effect to any election under FASB ASC 825 (or any similar accounting principle) permitting a Person to value its financial liabilities at the fair value thereof.

1.4 Currency Equivalents Generally.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of any amount in accordance with the terms hereof, and a determination thereof by the Administrative Agent shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, rely on any determination made by any Credit Party in any document delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may determine, redetermine or predetermine the Dollar Equivalent of any amount on any date either in its own reasonable discretion or upon the request of any Lender or Issuing Bank or any Borrower; provided that if any basket in any Credit Document is exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in applicable currency exchange rates after the last time such basket was utilized, such basket will not be deemed to have been exceeded solely as a result of such fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

(b) For purposes of determining the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Covenant Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and the Consolidated Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, amounts denominated in a currency other than Dollars will be converted to Dollars for the purposes of (i) testing the Financial Performance Covenant, at the exchange rate as of the last day of the fiscal quarter for which such measurement is being made, and (ii) calculating any Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, the Covenant Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the purposes of determining compliance with Section 6.7), the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and the Consolidated Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, at the exchange rate as of the date of determination, and will, in the case of Indebtedness and Consolidated Funded Indebtedness, be the weighted average exchange rates used for determining Consolidated EBITDA for the relevant period determined in accordance with GAAP, provided that if any Covenant Party has entered into any currency Swap Contracts in respect of any borrowings, the Dollar Equivalent of such borrowings shall be determined by first taking into account the effects of that currency Swap Contract.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Equivalent (i) of each Revolving Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency on (A) the date of the Borrowing of such Revolving Loan and (B) each date of a conversion into or continuation of such Revolving Loan pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and (ii) of each Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency on (A) the date on which such Letter of Credit is issued, (B) the first Business Day of each calendar month and (C) the date of any amendment of such Letter of Credit that has the effect of increasing the face amount thereof.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) any representation or warranty that would be untrue or inaccurate, (ii) any undertaking that would be breached or (iii) any event that would constitute a Default or an Event of Default, in each case, solely as a result of fluctuations in applicable currency exchange rates, shall not be deemed to be untrue, inaccurate, breached or so constituted, as applicable, solely as a result of such fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

82

(e) Wherever in this Agreement in connection with a Borrowing, conversion, continuation or prepayment of a Euro Rate Loan or the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit, an amount, such as a required minimum or multiple amount, is expressed in Dollars, but such Borrowing, Euro Rate Loan or Letter of Credit is denominated in an Alternative Currency, such amount shall be the relevant Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency (rounded to the nearest unit of such Alternative Currency, with 0.5 of a unit being rounded upward), as determined by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be.

(f) The Administrative Agent does not warrant, nor accept responsibility, nor shall the Administrative Agent have any liability with respect to the administration, submission or any other matter related to the rates in the definition of “Euro Rate” or with respect to any comparable or successor rate thereto.

1.5 Excluded Swap Obligations. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, no guarantee by any Credit Party under any Credit Document shall include a guarantee of any Obligation that, as to such Credit Party, is an Excluded Swap Obligation and no Collateral provided by any Credit Party shall secure any Obligation that, as to such Credit Party, is an Excluded Swap Obligation. In the event that any payment is made by, or any collection is realized from, any Credit Party as to which any Obligations are Excluded Swap Obligations, or from any Collateral provided by such Credit Party, the proceeds thereof shall be applied to pay the Obligations of such Credit Party as otherwise provided herein without giving effect to such Excluded Swap Obligations and each reference in this Agreement or any other Credit Document to the ratable application of such amounts as among the Obligations or any specified portion of the Obligations that would otherwise include such Excluded Swap Obligations shall be deemed so to provide.

1.6 Pro Forma Calculations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (subject to Section 1.2(e)), Payment Conditions (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, determining Excess Availability), the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Covenant Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Net Income, Consolidated EBITDA, Four Quarter Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Total Assets shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis with respect to each Specified Transaction occurring during the applicable four quarter period to which such calculation relates, and/or subsequent to the end of such four-quarter period.

1.7 Calculation of Baskets. If any of the baskets set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement are exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations to Consolidated EBITDA for the most recently completed fiscal quarter after the last time such baskets were calculated for any purpose under Section 6, such baskets will not be deemed to have been exceeded solely as a result of such fluctuations.

1.8 LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on Euro Rate Loans is determined by reference to the Euro Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administration, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Euro Rate Loans. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. In the event that the London interbank offered rate is no longer available or in certain other circumstances as set forth in Section

83

2.17(b) of this Agreement, such Section 2.17(b) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will notify the Parent Borrower, pursuant to Section 2.17, in advance of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Euro Rate Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “Euro Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate, as it may or may not be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.17(b), will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the Euro Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.

SECTION 2. LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT

2.1 Revolving Loans.

(a) Revolving Commitments.

(i) Subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, each Lender with a Revolving Commitment severally agrees to make Loans denominated in an Available Currency (each, a “Revolving Loan”) to the Borrowers from time to time on any Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding for all such loans by such Lender not to exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment; provided, however, that at no time shall any Lender be obligated to make a Loan in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Availability at such time, subject to the Administrative Agent’s authority, in its sole discretion, to make Protective Advances pursuant to the terms of Section 2.24. Within the limits of the Revolving Commitment of each Lender, amounts of Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this Section 2.1.

(ii) Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are available as Base Rate Loans (solely in the case of Revolving Loans funded in Dollars), Euro Rate Loans or Letters of Credit. Each Lender’s Revolving Commitment shall expire on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date and all Revolving Loans and all other amounts owed hereunder with respect to the Revolving Loans and the Revolving Commitments shall be paid in full no later than such date, other than as specified in Section 2.23(d) with respect to any Extending Lender as set forth therein.

(b) Borrowing Mechanics for Revolving Loans.

(i) Each Borrowing shall be made on notice given by the applicable Borrower to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (Local Time) (A) on the Borrowing date, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, and (B) three Business Days, in the case of a Borrowing of Euro Rate Loans, prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such notice shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1 (the “Funding Notice”), specifying (1) the date of such proposed Borrowing, (2) the aggregate amount and currency of such proposed Borrowing, (3) whether any portion of the proposed Borrowing will be of Base Rate Loans or Euro Rate Loans, (4) the amount of Eligible Borrowing Base Cash as of the close of business on the Business Day prior to the date of such notice and the Borrowing Base on a Pro Forma Basis for such Borrowing and (5) for each Euro Rate Loan, the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods thereof. Each Borrowing of Base Rate Loans shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $500,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Each Borrowing of Euro Rate Loans shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than the Dollar Equivalent of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of the Dollar Equivalent of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

84

(ii) The Administrative Agent shall give to each applicable Lender prompt notice of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a Funding Notice and, if Euro Rate Loans are properly requested in such Funding Notice, the applicable interest rate determined pursuant to Section 2.17(a). Each Lender shall, before 1:00 p.m. (Local Time) on the date of the proposed Borrowing, make available to the Administrative Agent at its Principal Office, in immediately available funds and in the applicable currency, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such proposed Borrowing. Subject to fulfillment (A) on the Closing Date, of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 3.1 and (B) at any time after the Closing Date, of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 3.2, and after the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds, the Administrative Agent shall make such funds available to the applicable Borrower; provided that Protective Advances shall be retained by the Administrative Agent and disbursed in its discretion.

(iii) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any proposed Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing (or any portion thereof), the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such Pro Rata Share available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with this Section 2.1(b) and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such Pro Rata Share available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (B) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation for the first Business Day and thereafter at the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such corresponding amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. If such Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such payment shall not relieve such Lender of any obligation it may have hereunder to such Borrower.

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

85

2.2 Swing Line Loans.

(a) On the terms and subject to Section 2.21 and the other conditions contained in this Agreement, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make, in Dollars, Loans (each, a “Swing Line Loan”) otherwise available to the Borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility from time to time on any Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that (i) will not to exceed the lesser of (a) the Availability at such time and (b) the Swing Line Sublimit and (ii) unless waived by the Swing Line Lender in its sole discretion, will not result in such Swing Line Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding its Revolving Commitment, subject, in each case, to the Administrative Agent’s authority, in its sole discretion, to make Protective Advances pursuant to the terms of Section 2.24. Each Swing Line Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan and must be repaid in full within seven days after its making or, if sooner, upon any Borrowing of Revolving Loans hereunder, and shall in any event mature no later than the Revolving Commitment Termination Date. Within the limits set forth in the first sentence of this clause (a), amounts of Swing Line Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this clause (a).

(b) [reserved].

(c) In order to request a Swing Line Loan, the applicable Borrower shall deliver by facsimile to the Administrative Agent a duly completed request in substantially the form of Exhibit A-4 (a “Swing Line Request”), setting forth the requested amount and date of such Swing Line Loan, to be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (Local Time) on the day of the proposed Borrowing. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Swing Line Lender of the details of the requested Swing Line Loan. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Swing Line Lender shall make a Swing Line Loan available to the Administrative Agent and, in turn, the Administrative Agent shall make such amount available to the applicable Borrower on the date of the Swing Line Request. The Swing Line Lender shall not make any Swing Line Loan in the period commencing on the first Business Day after it receives written notice from the Administrative Agent or any Lender that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Section 3.2 shall not on such date be satisfied, and ending when such conditions are satisfied. The Swing Line Lender shall not otherwise be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 have been satisfied in connection with the making of any Swing Line Loan.

(d) The Swing Line Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which writing may be a telecopy or electronic mail) weekly, by no later than 10:00 a.m. (Local Time) on the first Business Day of each week, of the aggregate principal amount of its Swing Line Loans then outstanding.

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

(f) The Administrative Agent shall forward each notice referred to in clause (d) above and each demand referred to in clause (e) above to each Lender on the day such notice or such demand is received by the Administrative Agent (except that any such notice or demand received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. (Local Time) on any Business Day or any such demand received on a day that is not a Business Day shall not be required to be forwarded to such Lenders by the Administrative Agent until the next succeeding Business Day), together with a statement prepared by the Administrative Agent specifying the amount of each such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate principal amount of the Swing Line Loans stated to be outstanding in such notice or demanded to be paid pursuant to such demand, and, notwithstanding whether or not the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 3.2 and 2.1 shall have been satisfied (which conditions precedent the Lenders hereby irrevocably waive), each Lender shall, before 11:00 a.m. (Local Time) on the Business Day next succeeding the date of such Lender’s receipt of such notice or demand, make available to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, for the

86

account of the Swing Line Lender, the amount specified in such statement. Upon such payment by a Lender, such Lender shall, except as provided in clause (g) below, be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the applicable Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall use such funds to repay the Swing Line Loans to the applicable Swing Line Lender. To the extent that any Lender fails to make such payment available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Swing Line Lender, the applicable Borrower shall repay such Swing Line Loan on demand, no later than one Business Day after receiving such demand (it being understood and agreed that in the event of such demand for payment, the applicable Borrower shall be permitted to make a Borrowing of Revolving Loans to satisfy such reimbursement obligation).

(g) Upon the occurrence of a Default under Section 8.1(f) or (g) or at any other time upon the request of the Administrative Agent or the Swing Line Lender, each Lender shall acquire, without recourse or warranty, an undivided participation in each Swing Line Loan otherwise required to be repaid by such Lender pursuant to clause (f) above, which participation shall be in a principal amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Loan, by paying to the Swing Line Lender on the date on which such Lender would otherwise have been required to make a payment in respect of such Swing Line Loan pursuant to clause (f) above, in immediately available funds in the same currency as such Swing Line Loan, an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Loan. If all or part of such amount is not in fact made available by such Lender to the applicable Swing Line Lender on such date, such Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover any such unpaid amount on demand from such Lender together with interest accrued from such date 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 for the first Business Day after such payment was due and thereafter at, the rate of interest then applicable to Base Rate Loans.

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

2.3 Issuance of Letters of Credit and Purchase of Participations Therein.

(a) On and after the Closing Date on the terms and subject to Section 2.21 and the other conditions contained in this Agreement, each Issuing Bank agrees to issue at the request of Parent Borrower and the applicable Co-Borrower and for the account of the applicable Borrower one or more Letters of Credit from time to time on any Business Day during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the third day prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date; provided, however, that no Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to issue (and, upon the occurrence of any of the events described in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) and (vi)(A) below, shall not issue) any Letter of Credit upon the occurrence of any of the following:

(i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit or any requirement of law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction or reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated) not in effect on the date of this Agreement or result in any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense that was not applicable, in effect or known to such Issuing Bank as of the date of this Agreement and that such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it;

87

(ii) such Issuing Bank shall have received any written notice of the type described in clause (d) below;

(iii) after giving effect to the issuance of such Letter of Credit, the applicable aggregate Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the applicable Maximum Credit at such time;

(iv) after giving effect to the issuance of such Letter of Credit (x) the sum of (i) the Dollar Equivalents of the applicable Letter of Credit Undrawn Amounts at such time and (ii) the Dollar Equivalents of the applicable Reimbursement Obligations at such time, exceeds the Letter of Credit Sublimit or (y) the Dollar Equivalents of the Letter of Credit Undrawn Amounts at such time which relate to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank plus the Dollar Equivalents of the applicable Reimbursement Obligations at such time which relate to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, exceeds the Letter of Credit Sublimit of the applicable Issuing Bank;

(v) subject to Section 2.3(k), such Letter of Credit is requested to be denominated in any currency other Dollars, Euros, Pounds Sterling or Swiss Francs; or

(vi) (A) any fees invoiced and due in connection with a requested issuance have not been paid, (B) such Letter of Credit is requested to be issued in a form that is not reasonably acceptable to such Issuing Bank, (C) the Issuing Bank for such Letter of Credit shall not have received, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to it and, if applicable, duly executed by such Borrower, applications, agreements and other documentation (a “Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement”) such Issuing Bank generally employs in the ordinary course of its business for the issuance of letters of credit of the type of such Letter of Credit or (D) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate any internal policies of the Issuing Bank;

subject, in the case of clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) above, to the Administrative Agent’s authority, in its sole discretion, to make Protective Advances pursuant to the terms of Section 2.24.

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

(b) In no event shall the expiration date of any Letter of Credit (i) be more than one year after the date of issuance thereof or (ii) be less than three days prior to the applicable Revolving Commitment Termination Date; provided, however, that any Letter of Credit with a term less than or equal to one year may provide for the renewal thereof for additional periods less than or equal to one year, as long as, (x) on or before the expiration of each such term and each such period, Parent Borrower and the applicable Co-Borrower and the Issuing Bank of such Letter of Credit shall have the option to prevent such renewal and (y) Parent Borrower and the applicable Co-Borrower shall not permit any such renewal to extend the expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond the date set forth in clause (ii) above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an amount of the Letter of Credit Sublimit not to exceed $80,000,000 in the aggregate shall be available for Letters of Credit with an expiration date of greater than one (1) year but not, in any event, later than the date set forth in clause (ii) above.

88

(c) In connection with the issuance of each Letter of Credit, Parent Borrower and the applicable Co-Borrower shall give the relevant Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent two Business Days’ prior written notice (or such lesser notice as is acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank in its sole discretion), in substantially the form of Exhibit A-3 (or in such other written or electronic form as is acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank) (an “Issuance Notice”), of the requested issuance of such Letter of Credit. Such notice shall be irrevocable after the form of such Letter of Credit has been agreed and shall specify (i) the Issuing Bank of such Letter of Credit, (ii) the face amount of such Letter of Credit, (iii) the currency of such Letter of Credit, which shall be an Available Currency, (iv) the date of issuance of such requested Letter of Credit, (v) the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which date shall be a Business Day), (vi) the amount of Eligible Borrowing Base Cash as of the close of business on the Business Day prior to the date of such notice and the Borrowing Base on a Pro Forma Basis for such Borrowing and (vii) in the case of an issuance, the Person for whose benefit the requested Letter of Credit is to be issued. Such notice, to be effective, must be received by the relevant Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (Local Time) on the second Business Day prior to the requested issuance of such Letter of Credit.

(d) Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 2.3, the relevant Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit on behalf of Parent Borrower and the applicable Co-Borrower in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices. No Issuing Bank shall issue any Letter of Credit in the period commencing on the first Business Day after it receives written notice from any Lender that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Section 3.2 or clause (a) above (other than those conditions set forth in clauses (a)(i), (a)(vi)(B) and (a)(vi)(C) above and, to the extent such clause relates to fees owing to the Issuing Bank of such Letter of Credit and its Affiliates, clause (a)(vi)(A) above) are not on such date satisfied or duly waived and ending when such conditions are satisfied or duly waived. No Issuing Bank shall otherwise be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 have been satisfied in connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit.

(e) Each Borrower agrees that, if requested by the Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit issued for such Borrower’s account, it shall execute one applicable Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement in respect of all Letters of Credit issued for such Borrower’s account hereunder. In the event of any conflict between the terms of any Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall govern.

(f) Each Issuing Bank shall comply with the following:

(i) give the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice confirmed promptly thereafter in writing), which writing may be a telecopy or electronic mail, of the issuance of any Letter of Credit issued by it, of all drawings under any Letter of Credit issued by it and of the payment (or the failure to pay when due) by the applicable Borrower of any Reimbursement Obligation when due (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit by telecopy, electronic mail or similar transmission to each Lender);

(ii) upon the request of any Lender, furnish to such Lender copies of any applicable Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement to which such Issuing Bank is a party and such other documentation as may reasonably be requested by such Lender; and

89

(iii) no later than 10 Business Days following the last day of each calendar month, provide to the Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent shall provide a copy to each Lender requesting the same) and the applicable Borrower separate schedules for Letters of Credit issued by it, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, setting forth the aggregate Letter of Credit Obligations, in each case outstanding at the end of each month, and any information requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent relating thereto.

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

(h) The Parent Borrower and the applicable Co-Borrower agree to pay to the applicable Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit the amount of all Reimbursement Obligations owing to such Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit issued for the account of Parent Borrower and the applicable Co-Borrower no later than the date that is the next succeeding Business Day after Parent Borrower and the applicable Co-Borrower receive written notice from such Issuing Bank that payment has been made under such Letter of Credit (the “Reimbursement Date”), irrespective of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that Parent Borrower and the applicable Co-Borrower may have at any time against such Issuing Bank or any other Person. In the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the Parent Borrower shall reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank in such Alternative Currency in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.3(h), unless the applicable Issuing Bank (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will require reimbursement in Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the applicable Issuing Bank shall notify the Parent Borrower of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. In the event that any Issuing Bank makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the applicable Borrower shall not have repaid such amount to such Issuing Bank pursuant to this clause (h) or any such payment by the applicable Borrower is rescinded or set aside for any reason, such Reimbursement Obligation shall be payable on demand with interest thereon computed (i) from the date on which such Reimbursement Obligation arose to the Reimbursement Date, at the rate of interest applicable during such period to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans (in the case of Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars) or to Revolving Loans that are Euro Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one month (in the case of all other Letters of Credit) and (ii) from the Reimbursement Date until the date of repayment in full, at the rate of interest applicable during such period to past due Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans (in the case of Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars) or to past due Revolving Loans that are Euro Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one month (in the case of all other Letters of Credit) and such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify each Lender of such failure, and each Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such payment in immediately available funds in the same currency as the applicable Letter of Credit; provided that in the case of each Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, such payment shall be made in Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency amount. If the Administrative Agent so notifies such Lender prior to 11:00 a.m. (Local Time) on any Business Day, such Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank its Pro Rata Share of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in immediately available funds. Upon such payment by a Lender, such Lender shall, except during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default under Section 8.1(f) or (g) and notwithstanding whether or not the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 shall have been satisfied (which conditions precedent the Lenders hereby irrevocably waive), be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the applicable Borrower in the principal amount of such payment and such Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations shall be reduced by the amount of such deemed Revolving Loans. Whenever

90

any Issuing Bank receives from the applicable Borrower a payment of a Reimbursement Obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has received for the account of such Issuing Bank any payment from a Lender pursuant to this clause (h), such Issuing Bank shall pay over to the Administrative Agent any amount received in excess of such Reimbursement Obligation and, upon receipt of such amount, the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay over to each Lender, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of such payment adjusted, if necessary, to reflect the respective amounts the Lenders have paid in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation.

(i) If and to the extent a Lender shall not have so made its Pro Rata Share of the amount of the payment required by clause (g) above available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank forthwith on demand any such unpaid amount together with interest thereon, for the first Business Day after payment was first due 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 and, thereafter, until such amount is repaid to the Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars to the Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank, at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans (in the case of Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars) or to Euro Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one month (in the case of all other Letters of Credit).

(j) The applicable Borrowers’ obligation to pay its Reimbursement Obligation and the obligations of the applicable Lenders to make payments to the Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars to the Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Banks with respect to Letters of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, and irrespective of any of the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any Credit Document, or any term or provision therein;

(ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Credit Document;

(iii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that any Borrower, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, any Borrower, any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or any other Person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, any Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction;

(iv) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(v) in the absence of a determination by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment of gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank, and subject to the standards set forth below in this clause (j), payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit;

91

(vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the Issuing Bank, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.3, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the applicable Borrower’s obligations hereunder, other than acts, omissions or delays that are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment to have been caused by gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank; and

(vii) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally.

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing:

(i) The Parent Borrower may from time to time request that Letters of Credit be issued in a currency other than any Available Currency; provided that such requested currency is an Alternative Currency. In the case of any such request with respect to the issuance of Letters of Credit, such request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank.

(ii) Any such request shall be made to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (Local Time), 10 Business Days (or, in the case of a request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit denominated in Japanese Yen, seven Business Days) prior to the date of the desired Credit Extension (or such later time or date as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, in their sole discretion) and such request shall include in agreed form the Letter of Credit requested to be issued. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Issuing Bank thereof. The applicable Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m. (Local Time), five Business Days (or, in the case of a request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit denominated in Japanese Yen, two Business Days) after receipt of such request whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency.

(iii) Any failure by the applicable Issuing Bank to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding clause (ii) shall be deemed to be a refusal by the applicable Issuing Bank to permit Letters of Credit to be issued in such requested Alternative Currency. If the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank consent to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Parent Borrower and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of any Letter of Credit issuances; provided that the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank shall have the right in their sole discretion at any time to redetermine whether any such currency shall continue to be deemed an Alternative Currency for purposes of future issuances of Letters of Credit. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for an additional currency under this Section 2.3, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Parent Borrower. Any specified currency of an Existing Letter of Credit that is not Dollars shall be deemed an Alternative Currency with respect to such Existing Letter of Credit only.

Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the relevant Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not result in any liability of such Issuing Bank to the applicable Borrower or any Lender. In determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof, the Issuing Bank

92

may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may rely exclusively on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever, and any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Issuing Bank.

(l) Schedule 2.3(l) contains a schedule of certain letters of credit issued under the Existing ABL Credit Agreement (the “Existing Letters of Credit”) for the account of a Borrower or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries by the issuers set forth on such Schedule 2.3(l). On the Closing Date, (i) such letters of credit, to the extent outstanding, shall be automatically and without further action by the parties thereto converted to Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this Section 2.3 for the account of Parent Borrower and subject to the provisions hereof, and for this purpose the fees specified in Section 2.10 shall be payable (in substitution for any fees set forth in the applicable letter of credit reimbursement agreements or applications relating to such letters of credit) as if such letters of credit had been issued on the Closing Date, (ii) the issuing banks of such letters of credit shall be Lenders hereunder and shall be “Issuing Banks” hereunder for the purpose of maintaining such letters of credit, for purposes of Section 2.19 relating to the obligation to provide the appropriate forms, certificates and statements to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent and any updates required by Section 2.19 and for purposes of Section 2.6 relating to the entries to be made in the Register, (iii) the Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of such letters of credit shall be included in the calculation of Letter of Credit Obligations and (iv) all liabilities of a Borrower or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries with respect to such letters of credit shall constitute Obligations.

2.4 Pro Rata Shares. Subject to Section 2.21, all Loans shall be made, and all participations purchased, by Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder or purchase a participation required hereby nor shall any Revolving Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder or purchase a participation required hereby.

2.5 Resignation of Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may resign at any time upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Applicable Agent and the Parent Borrower. On the effective date of such resignation, such Issuing Bank shall have no further obligation to issue, amend, renew, extend or otherwise modify any Letter of Credit previously issued by it, but shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank hereunder, including under Sections 2.3, 2.7, 2.12, 2.19, 2.20, 10.3 and 10.5 relating to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank prior to such date. The foregoing notwithstanding, if such resignation would result in there being no Issuing Bank, then the Parent Borrower shall promptly appoint a replacement Issuing Bank reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and such resignation shall not be effective until the acceptance of such appointment by the replacement Issuing Bank.

93

2.6 Evidence of Debt; Register; Lenders’ Books and Records; Notes.

(a) Lenders’ Evidence of Debt. Each Lender shall maintain on its internal records an account or accounts evidencing the Obligations of each Borrower to such Lender, including the amounts of the Loans made by it and each repayment and prepayment in respect thereof. Any such recordation shall be presumptively correct, absent manifest error; provided that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Revolving Commitments or any Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any applicable Loans; and provided further, in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the recordations in the Register shall govern.

(b) Register. The Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall maintain at its Principal Office a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Revolving Commitments and Loans of each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The Register, as in effect at the close of business on the preceding Business Day, shall be available for inspection by any Borrower or any Lender (with respect to a Lender, solely with respect to the Obligations owing to such Lender) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Administrative Agent shall record, or shall cause to be recorded, in the Register the Revolving Commitments and the Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6, and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans, and any such recordation shall be presumptively correct, absent manifest error; provided that failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Revolving Commitments or any Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any Loan. Each Borrower hereby designates JPMorgan to serve as its agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 2.6, and each Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent JPMorgan serves in such capacity, JPMorgan and its officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-agents and affiliates shall constitute “Indemnitees.”    This Section 2.6(b) and Sections 10.6(b) and (g) shall be construed so that all Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and any related U.S. Treasury Regulations (including Proposed Treasury Regulations Section 1.163-5(b)) (and any other relevant or successor provisions of the Internal Revenue Code or of such U.S. Treasury Regulations).

(c) Notes. If so requested by any Lender by written notice to the applicable Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, or at any time thereafter, such Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 10.6) on the Closing Date (or, if such notice is delivered after the Closing Date, promptly after such Borrower’s receipt of such notice) a Note or Notes to evidence such Lender’s Revolving Loan or Swing Line Loan, as the case may be.

2.7 Interest on Loans.

(a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, each Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) thereof as follows:

(i) in the case of Revolving Loans:

(1) if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; or

(2) if a Euro Rate Loan, at the Euro Rate plus the Applicable Margin;

(ii) in the case of Swing Line Loans, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin;

94

(iii) in the case of Protective Advances, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) The basis for determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan (except Swing Line Loans and Protective Advances, which can be made and maintained as Base Rate Loans only), and the Interest Period with respect to any Euro Rate Loan, shall be selected by the applicable Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent and Lenders pursuant to the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be. If, with respect to any Euro Rate Loan, the Interest Period has ended and a Conversion/Continuation Notice has not been delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest, then such Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan (if denominated in Dollars) or Euro Rate Loan with an Interest Period of one month (in the case of all other Loans) until the receipt by the Administrative Agent and effectiveness of a Conversion/Continuation Notice with respect to such Loan.

(c) In connection with Euro Rate Loans, there shall be no more than thirty (30) Interest Periods outstanding at any time. In the event the Parent Borrower fails to specify between a Base Rate Loan or a Euro Rate Loan in the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, such Loan (x) if outstanding as a Euro Rate Loan, will be automatically converted into a Base Rate Loan at the end of the applicable Interest Period (in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars) or shall continue as a Euro Rate Loan with an Interest Period of one month (for all other Loans) on the last day of the then-current Interest Period for such Loan, (y) if outstanding as a Base Rate Loan will remain as a Base Rate Loan and (z) if not outstanding will be made as a Euro Rate Loan with an Interest Period of one month. In the event the Parent Borrower fails to specify an Interest Period for any Euro Rate Loan in the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month. On each Interest Payment Date, as soon as practicable after 10:00 a.m. (Local Time) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties in the absence of manifest error) the interest rate that shall apply to each Euro Rate Loan for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Parent Borrower and each Lender.

(d) All interest payable pursuant to Section 2.7(a) shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year, except that (i) interest computed by reference to the Base Rate at times when the Base Rate is based on the Prime Lending Rate and (ii) interest with respect to any Loan denominated in Pounds Sterling shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a Euro Rate Loan, the date of such conversion from such Euro Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a Euro Rate Loan, the date of conversion to such Euro Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

(e) Except as otherwise set forth herein, interest on each Revolving Loan made to the Borrowers (A) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable by the applicable Borrower in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect to interest accrued on and to each such payment date; (B) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable by the applicable Borrower in arrears upon any prepayment of such Revolving Loan whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid; and (C) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable by the applicable Borrower in arrears at maturity of such Revolving Loans, including final maturity of the Revolving Loans; provided, however, with respect to any voluntary prepayment of a Base Rate Loan, accrued interest shall instead be payable on the applicable Interest Payment Date.

95

(f) The applicable Borrower agrees to pay to each applicable Issuing Bank, with respect to drawings honored under any Letter of Credit issued for its account, interest on the amount paid by such Issuing Bank in respect of each such honored drawing from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date such amount is reimbursed by or on behalf of the applicable Borrower, including by way of a deemed Revolving Loan, at a rate equal to (i) for the period from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the applicable Reimbursement Date, the Base Rate or Euro Rate, as applicable, plus the Applicable Margin payable hereunder with respect to Base Rate Loans (in the case of Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars) or to Euro Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one month (in the case of all other Letters of Credit), and (ii) thereafter, a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the Applicable Margin payable hereunder with respect to Base Rate Loans (in the case of Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars) or Euro Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one month (in the case of all other Letters of Credit).

(g) Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.7(f) shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues, except that (i) interest computed by reference to the Base Rate at times when the Base Rate is based on the Prime Lending Rate and (ii) interest with respect to any Loan denominated in Pounds Sterling shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand is made, on the date on which the related drawing under a Letter of Credit is reimbursed in full. Promptly upon receipt by any Issuing Bank of any payment of interest pursuant to Section 2.7(f), such Issuing Bank shall distribute to each Lender, out of the interest received by such Issuing Bank in respect of the period from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date on which such Issuing Bank is reimbursed for the amount of such drawing (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of any Revolving Loans), the amount that such Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the letter of credit fee that would have been payable in respect of such Letter of Credit for such period if no drawing had been honored under such Letter of Credit. In the event any Issuing Bank shall have been reimbursed by Lenders for all or any portion of such honored drawing, such Issuing Bank shall distribute to each Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under Section 2.3(h) or Section 2.3(i), as applicable, with respect to such honored drawing such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any interest received by Issuing Bank in respect of that portion of such honored drawing so reimbursed by Lenders for the period from the date on which Issuing Bank was so reimbursed by Lenders to but excluding the date on which such portion of such honored drawing is reimbursed by the applicable Borrower.

2.8 Conversion/Continuation of Revolving Loans Denominated in Dollars.

(a) Subject to Section 2.17 and so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, each Borrower shall have the option:

(i) to convert at any time all or any part of any Revolving Loan denominated in Dollars to such Borrower equal to (A) in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan, $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount and (B) in the case of a conversion to a Euro Rate Loan, $2,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount; provided a Euro Rate Loan may only be converted on the expiration of the Interest Period applicable to such Euro Rate Loan unless the applicable Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 2.17 in connection with any such conversion; and provided further that the aggregate amount of the Euro Rate Loans for each Interest Period must be in the amount of at least $2,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount; or

(ii) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Euro Rate Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Revolving Loan in a minimum amount equal to $2,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount as a Euro Rate Loan.

96

(b) The applicable Borrower shall deliver a Conversion/Continuation Notice to the Applicable Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan) and at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Euro Rate Loan). Except as otherwise provided herein, a Conversion/Continuation Notice for conversion to, or continuation of, any Euro Rate Loans (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) shall be irrevocable and the applicable Borrower shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, no conversion to a Euro Rate Loan in whole or in part shall be permitted at any time at which (i) a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or (ii) the continuation of, or conversion into, a Euro Rate Loan would violate any provision of Section 2.17 or 2.18.

(d) This section shall not apply to Protective Advances, which may not be converted or continued.

2.9 Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 8.1(a), (f) or (g) the principal amount of all overdue amounts owed hereunder shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable bankruptcy laws) payable on demand at a rate that is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the applicable overdue Loans (or, in the case of any such fees and other amounts, at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans); provided, in the case of overdue Euro Rate Loans, upon the expiration of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such increase in interest rate is effective, such Euro Rate Loans shall thereafter bear interest payable upon demand at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for Euro Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one month. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.9 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of any Agent or any Lender.

2.10 Fees.

(a) The Parent Borrower agrees to pay to each Lender:

(i) subject to Section 2.21, an unused commitment fee in an amount equal to (1) the average of the actual daily difference between (a) the Revolving Commitment of such Lender and (b) the aggregate principal amount of all applicable outstanding Revolving Credit Outstandings owing to such Lender, times (2) the Applicable Revolving Commitment Fee Percentage then in effect; provided that for purposes of calculating the commitment fee pursuant to this clause (i), Swing Line Loans shall not be deemed to be a utilization of the Revolving Commitments; and

(ii) letter of credit fees equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the product of (A) the Applicable Margin for Loans that are Euro Rate Loans, times (B) the average aggregate daily maximum amount available to be drawn under all such Letters of Credit (regardless of whether any conditions for drawing could then be met and determined as of the close of business on any date of determination).

97

All fees referred to in this Section 2.10(a) shall be paid to the Administrative Agent at its Principal Office and upon receipt, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender the amount of such fees owing to it.

(b) Each Borrower agrees to pay directly to each applicable Issuing Bank, for its own account, the following fees:

(A) a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum, times the Dollar Equivalent of the average aggregate daily maximum amount available to be drawn under all applicable Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank for the account of such Borrower (determined as of the close of business on any date of determination); and

(B) such customary documentary and processing charges for any issuance, amendment, transfer or payment of a Letter of Credit as are in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s standard schedule for such charges and as in effect at the time of such issuance, amendment, transfer or payment, as the case may be.

(c) All fees referred to in:

(i) Section 2.10(a)(i) shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and shall be payable quarterly on the first Business Day of each quarter during the Revolving Commitment Period, commencing on July 1, 2019 and on the applicable Revolving Commitment Termination Date; and

(ii) Section 2.10(a)(ii) and Section 2.10(b) shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on April 1, July 1, October 1 and January 1 of each year during the Revolving Commitment Period, commencing on July 1, 2019 and on the applicable Revolving Commitment Termination Date.

(d) In addition to any of the foregoing fees, the Parent Borrower agrees to pay to the Arrangers and the Agents such other fees in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon in the Fee Letter.

2.11 Voluntary Prepayments. Each Borrower may prepay the outstanding principal amount of the applicable Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans in whole or in part at any time; provided, however, that if any prepayment of any Euro Rate Loan is made by a Borrower other than on the last day of an Interest Period for such Loan, such Borrower shall also pay any amount owing pursuant to Section 2.17(d). Any such voluntary prepayment shall be applied as specified in Section 2.14(a).

2.12 Voluntary Revolving Commitment Reductions.

(a) The Parent Borrower may, upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written or telephonic notice (or such shorter notice period as the Administrative Agent may reasonably approve) confirmed in writing to the Administrative Agent (which original written or telephonic notice the Administrative Agent will promptly transmit by telefacsimile or telephone to each Lender), at any time and from time to time terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part, without premium or penalty, the Revolving Commitments in an amount up to the amount by which the Revolving Commitments will exceed the Revolving Credit Outstandings at the time of such proposed termination or reduction after giving effect to any concurrent repayment (or, with respect to Letter of Credit Obligations, the provision of cash collateral or backstop letters of credit acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank in an amount equal to 103% of the

applicable Letter of Credit Obligations; provided that at any time and from time to time after the initial deposit of cash collateral in respect of any one or more Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the applicable Issuing Bank may request that additional cash collateral be provided in order to protect against the results of exchange rate fluctuations, such additional cash collateral not to exceed an amount equal to 5.0% of the outstanding amount of such Letters of Credit) of applicable Revolving Credit Outstandings; provided any such partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount.

(b) The Parent Borrower’s notice to the Administrative Agent shall designate the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction, and such termination or reduction of the applicable Revolving Commitments shall be effective on the date specified in such Borrower’s notice and shall reduce the applicable Revolving Commitment of each Lender proportionately to its Pro Rata Share thereof.

2.13 Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) Maximum Credit. Subject to the Administrative Agent’s authority, in its sole discretion, to make Protective Advances pursuant to the terms of Section 2.24, promptly (but in no event later than two (2) Business Days) upon the earlier of (a) the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of Parent Borrower, or (b) notice to any Borrower from the Administrative Agent that the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of applicable Revolving Credit Outstandings exceeds the Maximum Credit at such time, the applicable Borrower shall forthwith prepay the Swing Line Loans first and then the Revolving Loans then outstanding in an amount equal to such excess. If any such excess remains after repayment in full of the applicable aggregate outstanding Swing Line Loans and Revolving Loans, the applicable Borrower shall cash collateralize applicable Letters of Credit in the manner set forth in Section 8.2 in an amount equal to 103% of such excess.

(b) Cash Dominion During a Liquidity Event Period. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct, during a Liquidity Event Period, the application of all funds in each Cash Collateral Account and agrees that, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative Agent (i) may or, upon the written direction of the Requisite Lenders at any time during such Liquidity Event Period, shall deliver a Blockage Notice to each Deposit Account Bank for each Approved Deposit Account and (ii) shall, during a Liquidity Event Period, except, as provided in Sections 2.15(g) and (h), apply all payments in respect of any Obligations and all available funds in each Cash Collateral Account on a daily basis as follows: first, to prepay any Protective Advances that may be outstanding, pro rata; second, to repay the outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Loans until the Swing Line Loans have been repaid in full; third, to repay the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans until the Revolving Loans shall have been repaid in full (other than Contingent Obligations); fourth, to cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in the manner set forth in Section 8.2; and then to any other Obligation owing by such Borrower then due and payable. If (i) following such application, (ii) outside of a Liquidity Event Period or (iii) after all Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn and all Revolving Commitments shall have been terminated, there are no Loans outstanding and no other Obligations that are then due and payable (and, during a Liquidity Event Period, cash collateral has been provided in an amount equal to 103% of the Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner required in Section 8.2), then the Administrative Agent shall cause any remaining funds in the Cash Collateral Accounts to be paid at the written direction of the applicable Borrower (or, in the absence of such direction, to the applicable Borrower or another Person lawfully entitled thereto).

(c) [reserved].

(d) [reserved].

99

2.14 Application of Prepayments.

(a) Application of Voluntary Prepayments by Type of Loans. Any prepayment of any Loan pursuant to Section 2.11 shall be applied as specified by the applicable Borrower in the applicable notice of prepayment; provided, in the event such Borrower fails to specify the Loans to which any such prepayment shall be applied, such prepayment shall be applied first, to repay the applicable outstanding Swing Line Loans of such Borrower to the full extent thereof; and second, to repay the applicable outstanding Revolving Loans of such Borrower to the full extent thereof.

(b) Application of Prepayments of Loans to Base Rate Loans and Euro Rate Loans. Any prepayment by a Borrower of Loans denominated in Dollars shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans of such Borrower to the full extent thereof before application to Euro Rate Loans of such Borrower, in each case in a manner which minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Parent Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17(d).

2.15 General Provisions Regarding Payments.

(a) All payments by a Borrower of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made in the currency in which the obligation being paid is denominated in same day funds, without defense, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (Local Time) on the date due at the Principal Office designated by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders; for purposes of computing interest and fees, funds received by the Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall be deemed to have been paid by such Borrower on the next succeeding Business Day.

(b) All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan (other than voluntary prepayments of Revolving Loans) shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid.

(c) The Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall promptly distribute to each Lender at such address as such Lender shall indicate in writing (the “Lending Office”), such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due thereto, including, without limitation, all fees payable with respect thereto, to the extent received by the Administrative Agent.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions hereof, if any Conversion/Continuation Notice is withdrawn as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans in lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any Euro Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent shall give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter.

(e) Subject to the provisos set forth in the definition of “Interest Period” as they may apply to Revolving Loans, whenever any payment to be made hereunder with respect to any Loan shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to Revolving Loans only, such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder or of the Revolving Commitment fees hereunder.

(f) The Administrative Agent shall deem any payment by or on behalf of a Borrower hereunder that is not made in same day funds prior to 1:00 p.m. (Local Time) to be a non-conforming payment. Any such payment shall not be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent until the later of (i) the time such funds become available funds, and (ii) the applicable next Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice to such Borrower and each Lender (confirmed in

100

writing) if any payment is non-conforming. Any non-conforming payment may constitute or become a Default or Event of Default in accordance with the terms of Section 8.1(a), subject to any applicable grace or cure periods therein. Interest shall continue to accrue on any principal as to which a non-conforming payment is made until such funds become available funds (but in no event less than the period from the date of such payment to the next succeeding applicable Business Day) at the rate determined pursuant to Section 2.9 from the date such amount was due and payable until the date such amount is paid in full (other than Contingent Obligations).

(g) Except for payments and other amounts received by the Administrative Agent and applied in accordance with the provisions of clause (h) below (or required to be applied in accordance with Section 2.14(a)), all payments and any other amounts received by the Administrative Agent from or for the benefit of each Borrower shall be applied as follows: first, to pay principal of, and interest on, any portion of the Revolving Loans the Administrative Agent may have advanced pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement on behalf of any Lender, for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or such Borrower; second, to pay all other Obligations then due and payable; and third, as such Borrower so designates. Payments in respect of Swing Line Loans received by the Administrative Agent shall be distributed to the applicable Swing Line Lender; payments in respect of Revolving Loans received by the Administrative Agent shall be distributed to each Lender in accordance with such Lender’s Pro Rata Share; and all payments of fees and all other payments in respect of any other Obligation shall be allocated among such of the Lenders and Issuing Banks as are entitled thereto and, for such payments allocated to the Lenders, in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares.

(h) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments in respect of the Obligations and any proceeds of Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and agrees that, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.14(a) and clause (g) above, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and not otherwise been waived, the Administrative Agent may, and, upon either (A) the written direction of the Requisite Lenders or (B) the acceleration of the applicable Obligations pursuant to Section 8.1, shall, deliver a Blockage Notice to each Deposit Account Bank for each Approved Deposit Account and apply all payments in respect of any applicable Obligations and all funds on deposit in any Cash Collateral Account and all other proceeds of Collateral in the following order:

(i) first, to pay ratably interest on and then principal of any portion of the applicable Revolving Loans that the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the applicable Borrower;

(ii) second, to pay ratably applicable Obligations in respect of any fees, expense reimbursements or indemnities and Facility Cash Management Obligations then due to any Agent;

(iii) third, to pay ratably applicable Obligations in respect of any expense reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks;

(iv) fourth, to pay ratably applicable Obligations in respect of any fees then due to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks;

(v) fifth, to pay ratably interest then due and payable in respect of the applicable Protective Advances;

(vi) sixth, to pay ratably the principal of the Protective Advances;

101

(vii) seventh, to pay ratably interest then due and payable in respect of the applicable Loans (other than the Protective Advances) and Reimbursement Obligations;

(viii) eighth, to pay or prepay ratably principal amounts on the applicable Loans (other than the Protective Advances) and Reimbursement Obligations and to provide cash collateral for applicable outstanding Letter of Credit Undrawn Amounts in the manner described in Section 8.2, ratably to the aggregate principal amount of such Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and Letter of Credit Undrawn Amounts;

(ix) ninth, to pay ratably amounts due and owing in respect of applicable Secured Cash Management Agreements with respect to which proceeds of Collateral have not been applied in accordance with clause (ii) above and to pay amounts owing in respect of Secured Hedge Agreements, ratably to the obligations owing with respect to such Secured Cash Management Agreements and such amounts owing in respect of such Secured Hedge Agreements; and

(x) tenth, pay ratably all other applicable Obligations;

provided, however, that if sufficient funds are not available to fund all payments to be made in respect of any Obligation described in any of clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix) and (x) above, the available funds being applied with respect to any such Obligation in such clause (unless otherwise specified in such clause) shall be allocated to the payment of such Obligation within such clause ratably, based on the proportion of the applicable Agent’s and each Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s interest in the aggregate outstanding Obligations described in such clauses; provided, however, that payments that would otherwise be allocated to the Lenders shall be allocated first to repay Swing Line Loans until such Swing Line Loans are paid in full and then to repay the Revolving Loans.

2.16 Ratable Sharing. Other than as set forth in Sections 2.21, 2.23(d) and 2.25 hereof, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, the Lenders hereby agree among themselves that, except as otherwise provided in the Collateral Documents with respect to amounts realized from the exercise of rights with respect to Liens on the Collateral, if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, amounts payable in respect of: Letters of Credit, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (other than payments or reductions received by way of an assignment or participation effected pursuant to Section 10.6) (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (i) notify the Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (ii) apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided, if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the applicable Borrower or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

102

Each Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by such Borrower to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder.

2.17 Making or Maintaining Loans.

(a) Determination of Interest Rate. The Euro Rate for each Interest Period for Euro Rate Loans shall be determined by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the procedures set forth in the definition of “Euro Rate.” The Administrative Agent’s determination shall be presumed to be correct absent manifest error.

(b) Market Disruption; Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate.

(1) If the Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Euro Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (i) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Euro Rate Loan, (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Euro Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Euro Rate Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, or (iii) the Euro Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Euro Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Parent Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Euro Rate Loans shall be suspended, and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Euro Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Euro Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (including upon the instruction of the Requisite Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Parent Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Euro Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

(2) If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in clause (1)(ii) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (1)(ii) have not arisen but either (w) the supervisor for the administrator of the Screen Rate has made a public statement that the administrator of the Screen Rate is insolvent (and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of the Screen Rate), (x) the administrator of the Screen Rate has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Screen Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published by it (and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of the Screen Rate), (y) the supervisor for the administrator of the Screen Rate has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Screen Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published or (z) the supervisor for the administrator of the Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Screen Rate may no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the Euro Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable (but for the avoidance of doubt, such related changes shall not include a

103

reduction of the Applicable Margin); provided that, if such alternate rate of interest as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.5, 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 Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Requisite Lenders stating that such Requisite Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (2) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii)(w), clause (ii)(x) or clause (ii)(y) of the first sentence of this Section 2.17(b)(2), only to the extent the Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) any Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Euro Rate Loan shall be ineffective and (y) if any Funding Notice requests a Euro Rate Loan, such Borrowing shall be made as an Base Rate Loan.

(c) Illegality or Impracticability of Euro Rate Loans. In the event that on any date any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error but shall be made only after consultation with the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent) that the making, maintaining or continuation of its Euro Rate Loans (i) has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline, order or Governmental Authorization (or would conflict with any such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline, order or Governmental Authorization not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), in each case, first made after the date hereof or otherwise when compliance becomes required after the date hereof, or (ii) has become impracticable, as a result of contingencies occurring after the date hereof which materially and adversely affect the London interbank market or the position of such Lender in that market, then, and in any such event, such Lender shall be an “Affected Lender” and it shall on that day give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Thereafter (1) the obligation of the Affected Lender to make Loans as, to convert Loans to, or continue Loans as, Euro Rate Loans shall be suspended until such notice shall be withdrawn by the Affected Lender, provided that such Affected Lender shall promptly withdraw such notice when such circumstances cease to exist, (2) to the extent such determination by the Affected Lender relates to a Euro Rate Loan then being requested by such Borrower pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Affected Lender shall make such Loan as (or continue such Loan as or convert such Loan to, as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan, (3) the Affected Lender’s obligation to maintain its outstanding Euro Rate Loans (the “Affected Loans”) shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law, and (4) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described above relates to a Euro Rate Loan then being requested by a Borrower pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, such Borrower shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 2.17(d), to rescind such Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice as to all Lenders by giving notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of rescission the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in this Section 2.17(c) shall affect the obligation of any Lender other than an Affected Lender to make, maintain or continue Loans as, or to convert Loans to, Euro Rate Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.

104

(d) Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. The Parent Borrower shall compensate each applicable Lender, within 30 days of a written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amounts, and which shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid by such Lender to Lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Euro Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender actually sustains:

(i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or such Lender becoming an Affected Lender) a borrowing of any Euro Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Funding Notice or a telephonic request for borrowing, or a conversion to or continuation of any Euro Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice or a telephonic request for conversion or continuation; (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment of, or any conversion of, any of its Euro Rate Loans occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan; or (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Euro Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by such Borrower.

(ii) Each Lender (which term, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include each Swing Line Lender and each Issuing Bank for purposes of this clause (ii)) may from time to time, consistent with the internal policies of such Lender and its Affiliates and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, make, carry or transfer Loans or Letters of Credit to any Borrower at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of such Lender.

2.18 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.

(a) Compensation for Increased Costs and Taxes. In the event that any Lender (which term, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include each Swing Line Lender and each Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.18(a)) shall reasonably determine (which determination shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error) that any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation, order or Governmental Authorization, or any change after the Closing Date therein or in the interpretation, administration or application thereof (including the introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation, order or Governmental Authorization), or any determination of a court or Governmental Authority, in each case that becomes effective after the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender with any guideline, request or directive issued or made after the date hereof by any central bank or other governmental or quasi-governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law): (i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any Tax or changes the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (other than any Excluded Tax or any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes) with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents or any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable lending office) of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder; (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance, liquidity requirement or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (other than any such reserve or other requirements with respect to Euro Rate Loans that are reflected in the definition of “Euro Rate”); or (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations hereunder or the London interbank market; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, the applicable Borrower shall within 30 days after receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence,

105

pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its reasonable discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder. Such Lender shall deliver to the applicable Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.18(a), which statement shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error.

(b) Capital Adequacy Adjustment. In the event that any Lender (which term shall include any Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.18(b)) shall have reasonably determined that the adoption, effectiveness, phase-in or applicability after the Closing Date of any law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy or liquidity, or any change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) with any guideline, request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Loans or Revolving Commitments or Letters of Credit, or participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans or the Letters of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase-in, applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time, within 30 days after receipt by the applicable Borrower from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation for such reduction (other than with respect to any Tax matters). Such Lender shall deliver to the applicable Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to Lender under this Section 2.18(b), which statement shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error.

(c) For purposes of this Section 2.18, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall, in each case, be deemed to have gone into effect after the Closing Date, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

2.19 Taxes; Withholding, Etc.

(a) Payments to Be Free and Clear. All sums payable by any Credit Party hereunder or under any other Credit Document to any Lender or Agent shall (except to the extent required by law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Taxes.

(b) Withholding of Taxes. If any Credit Party or any other applicable withholding agent is required by law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable withholding agent) to make any deduction or withholding on account of any Non-Excluded Tax or Other Taxes from any sum paid or payable by any Credit Party to any Lender or Agent under any of the Credit Documents: (i) the applicable Credit Party or withholding agent shall make such deduction or withholding and pay to the relevant Governmental Authority any such Non-Excluded Tax or Other Tax before the date on which penalties attach thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on any Credit Party) for

106

its own account or (if that liability is imposed on the Lender or Agent) on behalf of and in the name of the Lender or Agent (as applicable); (ii) the sum payable to such Lender or Agent (as applicable) shall be increased by such Credit Party to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of any required deduction or withholding (including any deductions or withholdings attributable to any payments required to be made under this Section 2.19), the Lender or the Agent (as applicable), receives a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required or made; and (iii) as soon as practicable after any payment of such Tax by a Credit Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, the Credit Party making such payments shall deliver to the Applicable Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Applicable Agent.

(c) Status of Lender. Each Lender shall, at such times as are reasonably requested by a Borrower or an Applicable Agent, provide such Borrower and such Applicable Agent with any documentation prescribed by laws or reasonably requested by such Borrower or such Applicable Agent certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, withholding Tax with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under any Credit Document. Each such Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such documentation (including any specific documentation required below in this Section 2.19(c)) obsolete, expired or inaccurate in any material respect, deliver promptly to the applicable Borrower and the Applicable Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower or such Applicable Agent) or promptly notify such Borrower and such Applicable Agent of its inability to do so.

Without limiting the foregoing:

(1) Each US Lender shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding.

(2) Each Non-US Lender shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms), as applicable, claiming eligibility for the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, and such other documentation as required under the Internal Revenue Code,

(B) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms),

(C) in the case of a Non-US Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (A) two properly completed and duly signed certificates substantially in the form of Exhibit D (any such certificate, a “United States Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (B) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms), as applicable,

107

(D) to the extent a Non-US Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Non-US Lender is a partnership or a participating Lender), Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Non-US Lender, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, United States Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9, Form W-8IMY or any other required information (or any successor forms) from each beneficial owner that would be required under this Section 2.19(c) if such beneficial owner were a Lender, as applicable (provided that, if one or more beneficial owners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the United States Tax Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Non-US Lender on behalf of such beneficial owner), or

(E) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of any other form upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Applicable Agent or as prescribed by applicable U.S. federal income tax laws (including the Treasury Regulations) as a basis for claiming a complete exemption from, or a reduction in, United States federal withholding tax on any payments to such Lender under the Credit Documents.

(3) If a payment made to any Applicable Agent or a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Applicable Agent or such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of those Sections (including those contained in Sections 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Applicable Agent or such Lender shall deliver to Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Applicable Agent or such Lender has or has not complied with such Applicable Agent’s or such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.19(c)(3), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(4) On or before the Closing Date (and on or before the date any successor or replacement Applicable Agent becomes the Applicable Agent hereunder), to the extent copies thereof have not previously been so delivered, the Applicable Agent shall deliver to each Borrower two properly completed and duly executed copies of either (i) Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that it is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax or (ii) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY certifying that it is a “U.S. branch” of a foreign bank and evidencing its agreement with the Borrower to be treated as a U.S. person with respect to payments made to it by the Credit Parties, with the effect that, in either case, each Credit Party will be entitled to make payments hereunder to the Applicable Agent without withholding or deduction on account of U.S. federal withholding Tax. The Administrative Agent agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause (c), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(d) In addition to the payments by a Credit Party required by Section 2.19(b), the applicable Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

108

(e) The Borrowers shall, jointly and severally, indemnify a Lender or Agent (each a “Tax Indemnitee”), within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Non-Excluded Taxes paid or payable by such Tax Indemnitee on or attributable to any payment under or with respect to any Credit Document, and any Other Taxes payable by such Tax Indemnitee (including Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.19), whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared in good faith and delivered by the Tax Indemnitee or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of another Tax Indemnitee, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(f) If and to the extent that a Tax Indemnitee, in its sole discretion (exercised in good faith), determines that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes in respect of which it has received additional payments under this Section 2.19, then such Tax Indemnitee shall pay to the relevant Credit Party the amount of such refund, net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Tax Indemnitee (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund), and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Credit Party, upon the request of the Tax Indemnitee, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Tax Indemnitee (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Tax Indemnitee if the Tax Indemnitee is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require a Tax Indemnitee to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Credit Party or any other Person.

(g) In the event that a Credit Party makes an indemnification payment to a Tax Indemnitee with respect to Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to subsection (e) of this Section 2.19 or a Credit Party is required to repay to a Tax Indemnitee an amount in respect of a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes previously paid over to such Credit Party pursuant to subsection (f) of this Section 2.19, such Tax Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with all reasonable requests of such Credit Party, at the sole expense of such Credit Party, if (i) in the reasonable judgment of the Tax Indemnitee such cooperation shall not subject such Tax Indemnitee, as the case may be, to any unreimbursed third party cost or expense or otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Tax Indemnitee and (ii) based on advice of such Credit Party’s independent accountants or external legal counsel, there is a reasonable basis for such Credit Party to contest with the applicable Governmental Authority the imposition of such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes or the repayment of such refund. Any resulting refund shall be governed by Section 2.19(f). This subsection shall not be construed to require a Tax Indemnitee to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Credit Party or any other Person.

(h) [reserved].

(i) For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 2.19, include each Swing Line Lender and each Issuing Bank.

2.20 Obligation to Mitigate. Each Lender (which term, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include each Swing Line Lender and each Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.20) agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible for administering its Loans or Letters of Credit, as the case may be, becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to receive additional amounts under Section 2.17, 2.18 or 2.19, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (x) make, issue, fund or maintain its Credit Extensions, including any Affected Loans, through another office of such Lender, or (y) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof,

109

the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, 2.18 or 2.19 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Revolving Commitments, Loans or Letters of Credit through such other office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Revolving Commitments, Loans or Letters of Credit or the interests of such Lender; provided such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this Section 2.20 or take such other measures unless the applicable Borrower agrees to pay all incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of taking such measures as described above. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by the applicable Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.20 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to such Borrower (with a copy to the Applicable Agent) shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error.

2.21 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:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(i);

(b) the Revolving Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Requisite Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 10.5); provided that (i) such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment may not be increased or extended without its consent and (ii) the principal amount of, or interest or fees payable on, Loans or disbursements under Letters of Credit may not be reduced or excused or the scheduled date of payment may not be postponed as to such Defaulting Lender without such Defaulting Lender’s consent;

(c) if any Swing Line Loan is outstanding or Letter of Credit Usage exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any participations in any Letter of Credit Obligations and in any outstanding Swing Line Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares but only to the extent the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any participations in any Letter of Credit Obligations and in any outstanding Swing Line Loans does not exceed the total of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Commitments and to the extent that any Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure plus its allocated Pro Rata Share of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in any Letter of Credit Obligations and outstanding Swing Line Loans does not exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Parent Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such unreallocated portion of the outstanding Swing Line Loans and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the applicable Issuing Bank only the Borrowers’ obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.13(a) for so long as such Letter of Credit Obligations are outstanding or (z) make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and to the Issuing Banks and the

110

Swing Line Lenders, as the case may be, in their sole discretion, to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender; provided that (A) to the extent that cash collateral has previously been provided pursuant to this clause (ii) and, a result of a repayment of Revolving Loans or otherwise, further reallocation of amounts among the Lenders in accordance with clause (i) above may be made, then, solely to the extent of the amounts so reallocated, the cash collateral requirement pursuant to this clause (ii) will terminate and each applicable Issuing bank and the Swing Line Lender will cause any cash collateral posted with respect to their respective Letter of Credit Obligations or Swing Line Loans, as the case may be, to be returned to the applicable Borrower subject to any terms relating to such cash collateral and (B) neither such reallocation nor any payment pursuant hereto will constitute a waiver or release of any claim any Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Lender or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender or cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender;

(iii) if the Parent Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Parent Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(ii) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Obligations during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Obligations is cash collateralized;

(iv) if a reallocation of the Letter of Credit Obligations among the Non-Defaulting Lender’s is effected pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(i) and Section 2.10(a)(ii) shall be adjusted in accordance with such Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares after giving effect to such reallocation; and

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Obligations is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Borrower, any Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.10(a)(ii) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Obligations shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Bank until and to the extent that such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Obligations is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

(d) notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the related Letter of Credit Exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Obligations will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Parent Borrower in accordance with Section 2.21(c), and participating interests in any newly made Swing Line Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among Non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.21(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

(e) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers, each applicable Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Pro Rata Shares of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swing Line Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.

111

2.22 Removal or Replacement of a Lender. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that: (a) (i) any Lender (an “Increased-Cost Lender”) shall give notice to the applicable Borrower that such Lender is an Affected Lender or that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under Section 2.17 (other than clause (d) thereof), 2.18 or 2.19, (ii) the circumstances which have caused such Lender to be an Affected Lender or which entitle such Lender to receive such payments shall remain in effect or such Lender shall not have withdrawn such notice, and (iii) such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five Business Days after the applicable Borrower’s request for such withdrawal; or (b) (i) any Lender shall become and remain a Defaulting Lender and (ii) such Defaulting Lender shall fail to cure the default as a result of which it has become a Defaulting Lender within five Business Days after the applicable Borrower’s request that it cure such default; or (c) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 10.5(b), the consent of Requisite Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each a “Non-Consenting Lender”) whose consent is required shall not have been obtained; then, with respect to each such Increased-Cost Lender, Defaulting Lender, Non-Consenting Lender (each, a “Terminated Lender”), the applicable Borrower may, by giving written notice to the Administrative Agent and any Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its outstanding Loans and its Revolving Commitments, if any, in full to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6 and each Replacement Lender (or failing which, the Borrowers) shall pay any fees payable thereunder in connection with such assignment; provided, (1) on the date of such assignment, the Replacement Lender shall pay to such Terminated Lender an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Terminated Lender, (B) an amount equal to all unreimbursed drawings that have been funded by such Terminated Lender, together with all then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time and (C) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.10; (2) on the date of such assignment, the applicable Borrower shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.17(d), 2.18 or 2.19, or otherwise as if it were a prepayment; (3) to the extent an assignment to such Replacement Lender would require the consent of the Administrative Agent under Section 10.6, such Replacement Lender shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; and (4) in the event such Terminated Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender; provided, the applicable Borrower may not make such election with respect to any Terminated Lender that is also an Issuing Bank unless, prior to the effectiveness of such election, such Borrower shall have caused each outstanding Letter of Credit issued thereby to be cancelled or shall provide cash collateral or backstop letters of credit acceptable to such Issuing Bank in an amount equal to 103% of the applicable Letter of Credit Obligations. Upon the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender and the termination of such Terminated Lender’s Revolving Commitments, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification and to expense reimbursement hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender. Each Lender agrees that, if it becomes a Terminated Lender and its rights and claims are assigned hereunder to a Replacement Lender pursuant to this Section 2.22, it shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement to evidence such assignment, together with any Revolving Loan Note (if such Loans are evidenced by a Revolving Loan Note) evidencing the Loans subject to such Assignment Agreement; provided, however, that the failure of any Terminated Lender to execute an Assignment Agreement shall not render such assignment invalid.

112

2.23 Incremental Facilities.

(a) Parent Borrower may by written notice to the Agents elect to request, prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, (x) an increase to the applicable existing Revolving Commitments (any such increase, the “New Revolving Commitments” and the loans made pursuant thereto, the “New Revolving Loans”), by an amount (such amount not to be less than $25,000,000 individually (or such lesser amount which shall be approved by the Administrative Agent) and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount) not in excess of the sum of (i) $400,000,000 minus the aggregate principal amount of any other Revolving Loans incurred pursuant to clause (y) below and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of all previous or concurrent terminations of Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section 2.12, in each case not funded with the proceeds of any long-term Indebtedness or (y) commitments in respect of a Last-Out Facility (such commitments, “Last-Out Facility Commitments” and together with the New Revolving Commitments, “Incremental Revolving Commitments”) to make revolving loans with pricing terms, final maturity date, payment priorities and Borrowing Base mechanics (as set forth in clause (5) below) and/or upfront or similar fees different from the Revolving Loans (“Last-Out Incremental Revolving Loans”, and together with the New Revolving Loans, the “Incremental Revolving Loans”). Each such notice shall specify (A) the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which the applicable Borrower proposes that the Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Agents; and (B) the identity of each Lender or other Person that is an Eligible Assignee (each, a “New Lender”) to whom the applicable Borrower proposes any portion of such Incremental Revolving Commitments be allocated and the amounts of such allocations; provided that any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the Incremental Revolving Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide an Incremental Revolving Commitment; provided further that, if applicable, such New Lender shall be subject to the same consents as would apply to an assignment to such New Lender pursuant to Section 10.6. Such Incremental Revolving Commitments shall become effective, as of such Increased Amount Date; provided that (1) no Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such Incremental Revolving Commitments (except in connection with any acquisition or similar Investment permitted hereunder, where no Event of Default under Sections 8.1(a), (f) or (g) shall be the standard); (2) the terms of the Incremental Revolving Commitments (including the Applicable Margin) shall be documented solely as an increase to the Revolving Commitments, with identical terms; (3) the Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements executed and delivered by the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 2.19(c); (4) the applicable Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.17(d) in connection with the Incremental Revolving Commitments; (5) with respect to any Last-Out Incremental Revolving Loans, (i) such Last-Out Incremental Revolving Loans shall be secured by a pari passu lien on the Collateral with the Revolving Loans, but shall be junior in right of payment to all Revolving Loans, (ii) such Last-Out Incremental Revolving Loans will be incurred on a “first in, last out” basis vis-à-vis the Revolving Loans, and the borrowing mechanics and voluntary and mandatory prepayment and commitment reduction provisions herein may be modified to reflect such “first in, last out” basis, (iii) the Borrowing Base with respect to such Last-Out Incremental Revolving Loans shall be the same Borrowing Base that is applicable to the Revolving Loans, except such Borrowing Base with respect to such Last-Out Incremental Revolving Loans may have a greater advance rate with respect to the Eligible Accounts and Eligible Inventory than the advance rates applicable to the Revolving Loans (the provisions with respect to Last-Out Incremental Revolving Loans contemplated by subclauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this clause (5), the “Last-Out Borrowing Base Mechanics”) and, (iv) the Last-Out Incremental Revolving Loans shall have the same guarantees as the Revolving Loans, (v) the final maturity date of any Last-Out Incremental Revolving Loans shall be no earlier than the Maturity Date of the Revolving Loans (iv) the other terms of such Last-Out Incremental Revolving Loans shall, other than with respect to advance rates, pricing, interest rate margins, rate floors, fees and subordination in the “default waterfall”, be (x) the same as the Revolving Loans or (y) reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; and (6) the applicable Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction.

113

(b) On any Increased Amount Date on which New Revolving Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each of the Lenders shall assign to each of the New Lenders, and each of the New Lenders shall purchase from each of the Lenders, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), such interests in the Revolving Loans outstanding on such Increased Amount Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans will be held by existing Lenders and New Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such New Revolving Commitments to the Revolving Commitment, (ii) each New Revolving Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Commitment and each New Revolving Loan shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Loan and (iii) each New Lender shall become a Lender with respect to the New Revolving Commitment and all matters relating thereto.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall notify Lenders promptly upon receipt of the applicable Borrower’s notice of each Increased Amount Date and in respect thereof the New Revolving Commitments and the New Lenders and the respective interests in such Lender’s Revolving Loans, in each case subject to the assignments contemplated by this Section. For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement and the other Credit Documents may be amended with the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Parent Borrower and the applicable New Lenders (and without the consent of any other Lenders) in order to effect the provisions of Sections 2.23(a), (b) and/or (c) above.

(d) At any time on or prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, the Parent Borrower may request an extension of the Revolving Commitments (a “Proposed Extension”) by notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Lenders. Each such notice shall specify the proposed extended revolving commitment termination date (the “Extended Termination Date”) and any other terms or conditions with respect to the Proposed Extension. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender, Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender shall be obligated in any capacity to provide any such extension of its Revolving Commitments pursuant to any Proposed Extension or enter into any negotiations with respect to any Proposed Extension. Each Lender, Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender, as applicable, choosing to extend its Revolving Commitment pursuant to a Proposed Extension (each, an “Extending Lender”) and the applicable Borrowers may prepare appropriate documentation necessary to reflect the terms and conditions of the Proposed Extension; provided that (i) no amendments or modifications to any Credit Documents will be permitted prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date unless the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, consents to any such amendments or modifications (subject in each case to the requirements of Section 10.5); (ii) amendments or modifications to any Credit Document shall be permitted with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Extending Lenders (but solely to the extent such amendments and modifications apply only following the Revolving Commitment Termination Date); and (iii) unless the Administrative Agent has agreed in its sole discretion to act as the Administrative Agent for the Extending Lenders following the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, a successor Administrative Agent shall have been appointed by the Extending Lenders to act as administrative agent commencing on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date.

2.24 Protective Advances.

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth below, the Administrative Agent is authorized (but shall have no obligation to) by the Borrowers and the Lenders, from time to time following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, in the Administrative Agent’s Permitted Discretion, to make Loans to the Parent Borrower (each such Loan, a “Protective Advance”),

114

which the Administrative Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, deems necessary or desirable (i) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by any of the Borrowers to the Agents and the Lenders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including payments of reimbursable expenses (including costs, fees, and expenses as described in Section 10.2) and other sums payable under the Credit Documents; provided that (x) no Protective Advance may remain outstanding for more than 30 days; (y) the aggregate amount of Protective Advances outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Dollar Equivalent of $40,000,000; and (z) no Protective Advance shall be made that would result in the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Commitment; provided further that no Protective Advance shall result in a Default due to the Borrowers’ failure to comply with Section 2.1 for so long as such Protective Advance remains outstanding in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, but solely with respect to the amount of such Protective Advance. Protective Advances may be made even if the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 have not been satisfied. The Protective Advances shall be secured by the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks) in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Obligations hereunder. All Protective Advances shall be Base Rate Borrowings. The Administrative Agent’s authorization to make Protective Advances may be revoked at any time by the Requisite Lenders. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof. At any time that there is sufficient Availability and the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 have been satisfied, the Administrative Agent may request the Lenders to make a Revolving Loan, in the currency in which the applicable Protective Advance was denominated, to repay a Protective Advance. At any other time, the Administrative Agent may require the Lenders to fund, in the currency in which the applicable Protective Advance was denominated, their risk participations described in Section 2.24(b). It is agreed that the Administrative Agent shall endeavor, but without any obligation, to notify the Parent Borrower promptly after the making of any Protective Advance.

(b) Upon the making of a Protective Advance by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof, each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Administrative Agent, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Protective Advance in proportion to its Pro Rata Share. From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender is required to fund its participation in any Protective Advance purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Protective Advance.

2.25 Specified Refinancing Revolving Loans.

(a) The Parent Borrower may, from time to time after the Closing Date, add one or more new revolving credit facilities to the Facilities (“Specified Refinancing Revolving Loans”; and the commitments in respect of such new revolving loan facilities, the “Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitment”) pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by any Person appointed by the Parent Borrower, as agent under such Specified Refinancing Revolving Loans (such Person (who may be the Administrative Agent, if it so agrees), the “Specified Refinancing Agent”) and reasonably acceptable to the Parent Borrower, to refinance (including by extending the maturity) (i) all or any portion of any Revolving Commitments then outstanding under this Agreement or (ii) all or any portion of any Incremental Revolving Commitments incurred under Section 2.23, in each case pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Specified Refinancing Revolving Loans: (i) will rank pari passu or junior in right of payment as the other Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments hereunder; (ii) will not have obligors other than the Credit Parties or entities who shall have become Credit Parties (it being understood that the roles of such obligors as a Borrower or a Guarantor with respect to such obligations may be interchanged); (iii) will be secured by the Collateral on a first lien “equal and ratable” basis with the Liens securing the

(2) to an Investment in any one or more businesses (provided that if such investment is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock of a Person, such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower), assets, or property or capital expenditures, in each case used or useful in a Similar Business;

(3) to make an Investment in any one or more businesses (provided that if such Investment is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock of a Person, such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower), properties or assets that replace the properties and assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale or Casualty Event;

(4) to permanently terminate Revolving Commitments under this Agreement or any other Indebtedness of the Credit Parties that in each case is secured by a Lien on the ABL Collateral that is pari passu or prior to the Lien on the ABL Collateral securing the Obligations (and, in the case of revolving obligations, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto), in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Parent Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary; or

(5) any combination of the foregoing;

provided that the Parent Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be deemed to have complied with the provisions described in clauses (2) and (3) above if and to the extent that, within 365 days after the Asset Sale of ABL Collateral that generated the Net Cash Proceeds, the Parent Borrower or other applicable Subsidiary has entered into and not abandoned or rejected a binding agreement to acquire the assets or Capital Stock of a Similar Business, make an Investment in Replacement Assets or make a capital expenditure in compliance with the provision described in clauses (2) and (3) of this paragraph, and that acquisition, purchase or capital expenditure is thereafter completed within 180 days after the end of such 365-day period. Pending the final application of any such Net Cash Proceeds, the Parent Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower may temporarily reduce Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility, if any, or otherwise invest such Net Cash Proceeds in Cash Equivalents.

(b) For purposes of this Section 6.5, the amount of:

(i) any liabilities (as shown on Parent Borrower’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the notes thereto for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding such date or, if incurred or accrued subsequent to the date of such balance sheet, such liabilities that would have been reflected on Parent Borrower’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto if such incurrence or accrual had taken place on or prior to the date of such balance sheet in the good faith determination of the Parent Borrower) of the Parent Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary (other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Obligations) that are extinguished by the buyer in connection with the transactions relating to such Asset Sale, or that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets or Equity Interests, in each case, pursuant to an agreement that releases or indemnifies Parent Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, from further liability;

154

(ii) any notes or other obligations or other securities or assets received by the Parent Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Parent Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents, or by their terms are required to be satisfied for cash or Cash Equivalents (to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received), in each case, within 180 days of the receipt thereof; and

(iii) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this subclause (iii) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (x) $450,000,000 and (y) 23.5% of Four Quarter Consolidated EBITDA, calculated 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) shall each be deemed to be Cash Equivalents.

(c) For purposes of this Section 6.5, any sale by the Parent Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary that owns assets constituting ABL Collateral shall be deemed to be a sale of such ABL Collateral. In the event of any such sale, the proceeds received by the Parent Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of such sale shall be allocated to the ABL Collateral in accordance with its Fair Market Values, which shall be determined by the Parent Borrower or, at the Parent Borrower’s election, an independent third party.

159

(vi) make Restricted Payments to any direct or indirect parent of the Parent Borrower to finance, or to any direct or indirect parent of the Parent Borrower for the purpose of paying to any other direct or indirect parent of the Parent Borrower to finance, any Investment that, if consummated by the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, would be a Permitted Investment; provided that (a) such Restricted Payment is made substantially concurrently with the closing of such Investment and (b) promptly following the closing thereof, such direct or indirect parent of the Parent Borrower causes (i) all property acquired (whether assets or Equity Interests) to be contributed to the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or (ii) the merger, consolidation or amalgamation (to the extent permitted by Section 6.4) of the Person formed or acquired into the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in order to consummate such acquisition or Investment, in each case, in accordance with the requirements of Section 5.11;

THEN, (1) upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 8.1(f) or 8.1(g), automatically, and (2) upon the occurrence and continuation of any other Event of Default, at the election of the Administrative Agent or at the request of (or with the consent of) Requisite Lenders, upon notice to the Parent Borrower by the Administrative Agent, (A) the Revolving Commitments, if any, of each Lender having such Revolving Commitments and the obligation of each Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit shall immediately and automatically terminate; (B) each of the following shall immediately become due and payable, in each case without presentment, demand, protest or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Credit Party: (I) the unpaid principal amount of and accrued interest on the Loans, (II) an amount equal to 103% of the maximum amount that may at any time be drawn under all Letters of Credit then outstanding (regardless of whether any beneficiary under any such Letter of Credit shall have presented, or shall be entitled at such time to present, the drafts or other documents or certificates required to draw under such Letters of Credit), and (III) all other Obligations (other than Contingent Obligations not yet due and payable); provided the foregoing shall not affect in any way the obligations of Lenders under Section 2.2 or Section 2.3; (C) the Administrative Agent may cause Collateral Agent to enforce any and all Liens and security interests created pursuant to Collateral Documents; and (D) the Administrative Agent shall direct each Borrower to pay (and each Borrower hereby agrees upon receipt of such notice, or upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in Section 8.1(f) and (g) to pay) to the Administrative Agent 103% of such Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding.

The Administrative Agent shall promptly give written notice of any such application; provided, however, that the failure to give such written notice shall not invalidate any such application.

8.3 Rescission. If at any time after termination of the Revolving Commitments or acceleration of the maturity of the Loans, each Borrower shall pay all arrears of interest and all payments on account of principal of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations that shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on principal and, to the extent permitted by law, on overdue interest, at the rates specified herein) and all Events of Default and Defaults (other than nonpayment of principal of and accrued interest on the Loans due and payable solely by virtue of acceleration) shall be remedied or waived pursuant to Section 10.5, then, upon the written consent of the Requisite Lenders and written notice to the applicable Borrower, the termination of the Revolving Commitments or the acceleration and their consequences may

167

be rescinded and annulled; provided, however, that such action shall not affect any subsequent Event of Default or Default or impair any right or remedy consequent thereon. The provisions of the preceding sentence are intended merely to bind the Lenders and the Issuing Banks to a decision that may be made at the election of the Requisite Lenders, and such provisions are not intended to benefit any Borrower and do not give any Borrower the right to require the Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are met.

8.4 Parent Borrower’s Right to Cure.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 8.1, in the event that Parent Borrower fails to comply with the requirement of the financial covenant set forth in Section 6.7 (a “Financial Performance Covenant”) with respect to any Fiscal Quarter, after the end of such Fiscal Quarter until the expiration of the tenth day subsequent to the date on which financial statements with respect to the Fiscal Quarter for which the Financial Performance Covenant is being measured are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.1 (such ten-day period, the “Interim Period”), Parent Borrower shall have the right to issue Capital Stock (other than any Disqualified Stock) (the “Cure Right”), and upon the receipt by the Parent Borrower of cash (such amount of cash being referred to as the “Specified Cure Investment”) pursuant to the exercise by Parent Borrower of such Cure Right, such Financial Performance Covenant shall be recalculated giving effect to the following pro forma adjustments:

(i) Consolidated EBITDA shall be increased, solely for the purpose of determining the existence of a Default or Event of Default under the Financial Performance Covenant with respect to any Test Period that includes the fiscal quarter for which the Cure Right was exercised and not for any other purpose under this Agreement, by an amount equal to the Specified Cure Investment; and

(ii) if, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations, Parent Borrower shall then be in compliance with the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenant, Parent Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenant as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) in each four fiscal quarter period there shall be a period of at least two Fiscal Quarters in which no Cure Right is exercised, (ii) such Cure Right shall not be exercised more than five times during the Revolving Commitment Period, (iii) the Specified Cure Investment shall be no greater than the amount required to cause Parent Borrower to be in compliance with such Financial Performance Covenant, (iv) the proceeds of Specified Cure Investments shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating Consolidated Funded Debt in any determination of compliance with the Financial Performance Covenant for the fiscal quarter for which the Cure Right was exercised, (v) all Specified Cure Investments shall be disregarded for purposes of determining any ratio-based conditions, covenant “baskets” or the Applicable Margin, (vi) the Borrowers shall not be permitted to borrow hereunder or have any Letter of Credit issued, amended to increase the face amount thereof or extended during the Interim Period until the relevant Specified Cure Investment has been made and (vii) during the Interim Period, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any right to accelerate the Loans or terminate the Revolving Commitments, and none of the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any right to foreclose on or take possession of the Collateral or any other right or remedy under the Credit Documents that would be available on the basis of an Event of Default resulting from the failure to comply with Section 6.7.

9.4 Agents Entitled to Act as Lenders. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, any Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder. With respect to its participation in the Loans and the Letters of Credit, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Lenders,” “Requisite Lenders” and similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender or as one of the Requisite Lenders. Any Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with any Credit Party as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from Holdings, any Borrower or any Subsidiary for services in connection herewith and otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the other Agents.

9.5 Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgment by Lenders and Issuing Banks.

(a) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Holdings and its Subsidiaries in connection with Credit Extensions hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own independent appraisal, without reliance upon any Agent, Arranger, any other Lender or any other Issuing Bank, of the creditworthiness of Holdings and its Subsidiaries. No Agent or Arranger shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks or to provide any Lender or any Issuing Bank with

171

any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and no Agent or Arranger shall have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks.

(b) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement, an Assignment Agreement or a Joinder Agreement and funding its Loans on the Closing Date or by the funding of any Incremental Revolving Loans or issuing Incremental Revolving Commitments or by the funding of any Specified Refinancing Revolving Loans or issuing Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Credit Document and each other document required to be approved by any Agent, the Requisite Lenders, the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as applicable on the Closing Date or as of the date of funding of such Incremental Revolving Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments or Specified Refinancing Revolving Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments.

9.6 Right to Indemnity. Each Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify each Agent, each Issuing Bank and each of its Affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors, to the extent that such Agent shall not have been reimbursed by any Credit Party (but without limiting such Credit Party’s reimbursement obligations hereunder), for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including fees and disbursements of financial and legal advisors) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent or any of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the other Credit Documents or otherwise in its capacity as such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents; provided no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s or Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any indemnity furnished to any Agent or Issuing Bank for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent or Issuing Bank, be insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof; and provided further this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement described in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agents promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including fees, expenses and disbursements of financial and legal advisors) incurred by the Agents or Issuing Banks in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of its rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, to the extent that the Agents or Issuing Banks are not reimbursed for such expenses by any Borrower or another Credit Party.

9.7 Successor Agents and Swing Line Lender.

(a) Each of the Agents may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice (or such short period as agreed to by such Agent and the Parent Borrower) thereof to each other Agent, the Lenders and Parent Borrower; provided that in the event the Liens securing any Obligations would become unperfected as a result of the resignation of such Agent, such Agent shall retain, for the account of the applicable Borrower and at the cost and expense of the applicable Borrower, an independent collateral agent for purposes of perfecting such Liens prior to such resignation becoming effective.

172

(i) Upon any such notice of resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right, with, absent an Event of Default under Section 8.1(a), (f) or (g), the consent of Parent Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), upon 5 Business Days’ notice to Parent Borrower, to appoint a successor Agent. If no such successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint an applicable successor Agent selected from among the Lenders with, absent an Event of Default under Section 8.1(a), (f) or (g), the consent of Parent Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(ii) Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case maybe, hereunder by a successor Agent, that successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent and the retiring Agent shall promptly (A) (I) transfer to such successor Administrative Agent all sums held by it under the Credit Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents and (II) take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection therewith, whereupon such retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder, and (B) in the case of the Collateral Agent, (I) transfer to such successor Collateral Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held under the Collateral Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Collateral Agent under the Credit Documents and (II) execute and deliver to such successor Collateral Agent such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Collateral Agent of the security interests created under the Collateral Documents, whereupon such retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.

(iii) After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as such Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent hereunder. Any successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, appointed pursuant to this Section shall, upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, respectively, for all purposes hereunder.

(iv) Any resignation by JPMorgan or its successor as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute the resignation by JPMorgan or its successor as Swing Line Lender, and any successor Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to this Section shall, upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Swing Line Lender for all purposes hereunder. In such event (A) each applicable Borrower shall prepay any outstanding Swing Line Loans made by the retiring Administrative Agent and its Affiliates in their capacity as Swing Line Lender, (B) upon such prepayment, the retiring Administrative Agent and each Swing Line Lender shall surrender any Swing Line Note held by it to the applicable Borrower for cancellation, and (C) each applicable Borrower shall issue, if so requested by the successor Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender, a new Swing Line Note to the successor Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender, in the principal amount of the Swing Line Sublimit then in effect and with other appropriate insertions.

173

(b) Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, the obligations under the Credit Documents of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Swing Line Lender shall terminate, notwithstanding an election of any Lender to extend the Revolving Commitment Termination Date pursuant to Section 2.23(d).

9.8 Collateral Documents and Guaranty.

(a) Agents Under Collateral Documents and Guaranty.

(i) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of and for the benefit of Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of Lenders with respect to the Guaranty, the Collateral and the Collateral Documents.

(ii) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders (or, where required by the express terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or of the other Credit Documents, and the exercise by the Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks.

(iii) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that any action taken by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or of the other Credit Documents, and the exercise by the Collateral Agent of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties.

174

(b) Certain Releases. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, each of the Lenders, the Swing Line Lender and the Issuing Banks hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion:

(A) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Credit Document (i) upon termination of the Revolving Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted and obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements), (ii) that is sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Credit Document to a Person that is not a Credit Party, (iii) subject to Section 10.5, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Requisite Lenders, (iv) to the extent such property is secured by a Permitted Lien under clause (6) of the definition thereof, (v) that constitutes Excluded Assets as a result of an occurrence not prohibited hereunder or (vi) owned by a Credit Party upon release of such Credit Party from its obligations under its Guaranty or hereunder, as applicable, pursuant to clause (3) below;

Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.8. In each case as specified in this Section 9.8, the Collateral Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Credit Party such documents as such Credit Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.8; provided that the Borrower shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying that any such transaction has been consummated in compliance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

175

(c) Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guaranty. Anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, each Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby agree that (i) no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by Collateral Agent, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Requisite Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by Collateral Agent at such sale.

(d) Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby acknowledges that it has fully reviewed the Intercreditor Agreement and, by its execution of this Agreement, hereby consents to the execution and delivery of the Intercreditor Agreement by the Agents and agrees to comply with the terms thereof (which terms are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety) as if such Lender or Issuing Bank were a direct signatory thereto.

9.9 Approved Electronic Communications.

(a) Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, Holdings, each Borrower and each Guarantor Subsidiary agrees that the Agents may, but shall not be obligated to, make the Approved Electronic Communications available to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks by posting such Approved Electronic Communications on the Platform.

(b) Although the Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Agents from time to time (including, as of the Closing Date, a dual firewall and a User ID/Password Authorization System) and the Platform is secured through a single-user-per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, Holdings, each Borrower and each Guarantor Subsidiary agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. In consideration for the convenience and other benefits afforded by such distribution and for the other consideration provided hereunder, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Lenders, the Issuing Banks, Holdings, each Borrower and each Guarantor Subsidiary hereby approves distribution of the Approved Electronic Communications through the Platform and understands and assumes, and the Borrowers shall cause each Guarantor Subsidiary to understand and assume, the risks of such distribution, other than any risk caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agents.

(c) THE PLATFORM AND THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” NONE OF THE AGENTS OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ADVISORS OR REPRESENTATIVES (THE “AGENT AFFILIATES”) WARRANT THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY

176

DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE PLATFORM AND THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE AGENT AFFILIATES IN CONNECTION WITH THE PLATFORM OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS.

(d) Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, Holdings, each Borrower and each Guarantor Subsidiary agrees that each Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Approved Electronic Communications on the Platform in accordance with such Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.

9.10 Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements. No Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank that obtains the benefits of Section 2.15(h), any Guaranty or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Guaranty or any Collateral Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Credit Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Credit Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 9 to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, each Secured Party that is a party to any such arrangement in respect of Secured Cash Management Agreements or Secured Hedge Agreement, as applicable, shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent to serve as administrative agent under the Credit Documents, and shall be deemed to have appointed the Collateral Agent to serve as collateral agent under the Credit Documents and agreed to be bound by the Credit Documents as a Secured Party thereunder, subject to the limitations set forth in this paragraph.

9.11 Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable laws, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 2.19, each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective). 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 Credit Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.11. The agreements in this Section 9.11 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 9.11, include the Swing Line Lender and each Issuing Bank.

177

10.3 Indemnity.

(a) In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to Section 10.2, each Credit Party agrees to defend (subject to Indemnitees’ selection of counsel), indemnify, pay and hold harmless, each Agent, each Arranger, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Affiliate of the foregoing, and each of the foregoing’s officers, partners, directors, trustees, employees, advisors, agents and sub-agents (each, an “Indemnitee”), from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, no Credit Party shall have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final, non-appealable judgment that such Indemnified Liabilities have been incurred by reason of the gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or material breach of this Agreement by such Indemnitee or its officers, partners, directors, trustees, agents, sub-agents or Affiliates. To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 10.3 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, the applicable Credit Party shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them.

180

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Credit Party shall assert, and each Credit Party hereby waives, any claim against each Lender, each Issuing Bank, each Agent and any Affiliate of the foregoing, and each of the foregoing’s respective directors, employees, attorneys, advisors, agents or sub-agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) (as opposed to direct or actual damages), whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement, arising out of, in connection with, arising out of, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each of Holdings, the Parent Borrower and each other Credit Party hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

(c) If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court in any jurisdiction with respect to this Agreement or any other Credit Document, it becomes necessary to convert into a particular currency (the “Judgment Currency”) any amount due under this Agreement or under any other Credit Document in any currency other than the Judgment Currency (the “Currency Due”), then conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which judgment is given. For this purpose “rate of exchange” means the rate at which the Administrative Agent is able, on the relevant date, to purchase the Currency Due with the Judgment Currency in accordance with its normal practice at its head office in New York, New York or London, England. In the event that there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given and the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent of the amount due, the applicable Borrower will, on the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent, pay such additional amounts, if any, or be entitled to receive reimbursement of such amount, if any, as may be necessary to ensure that the amount received by the Administrative Agent on such date is the amount in the Judgment Currency which when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent is the amount then due under this Agreement or such other Credit Document in the Currency Due. If the amount of the Currency Due which the Applicable Agent is so able to purchase is less than the amount of the Currency Due originally due to it, the applicable Borrower shall indemnify and save the Applicable Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against all loss or damage arising as a result of such deficiency. This indemnity shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Administrative Agent from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due under this Agreement or any other Credit Document or under any judgment or order.

(d) Each Credit Party agrees that any indemnification or other protection provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to this Section 10.3) or any other Credit Document shall (i) survive payment in full of the Obligations and (ii) inure to the benefit of any Person that was at any time an Indemnitee under this Agreement or any other Credit Document.

(e) IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY AGENT AFFILIATE HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY CREDIT PARTY, LENDER, ISSUING BANK OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT OR CONTRACT OR

181

OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY CREDIT PARTY OR ANY AGENT AFFILIATE’S TRANSMISSION OF APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR ANY USE OF THE PLATFORM, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT SUCH LIABILITY OF ANY AGENT AFFILIATE IS FOUND IN A FINAL NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM SUCH AGENT AFFILIATE’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

10.4 Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each Agent and each of their Affiliates is hereby authorized by each Credit Party at any time or from time to time subject to the consent of Applicable Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), without notice to any Credit Party or to any other Person (other than Administrative Agent), any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of any Credit Party to such Person hereunder, the Letters of Credit and participations therein and under the other Credit Documents, including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected hereto, the Letters of Credit and participations therein or with any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not (a) such Person shall have made any demand hereunder or (b) the principal of or the interest on the Loans or any amounts in respect of the Letters of Credit or any other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 2 and although such obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent prohibited by applicable law as described in the definition of “Excluded Swap Obligation,” no amounts received from, or set off with respect to, any Credit Party shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Credit Party.

(d) Without the written consent of the Lenders (other than a Defaulting Lender) holding 66.7% of the applicable outstanding Revolving Commitments and/or Revolving Credit Exposure, no amendment, modification, termination, or consent shall be effective if the effect thereof would amend any provision in the definition of “Borrowing Base” or any of the defined terms used within such definitions to add new classes of eligible assets or in any manner that would increase Availability.

10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations.

(a) Generally. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors and assigns of Lenders. Except as otherwise expressly permitted by Section 6.4 or pursuant to Section 10.5(b), no Credit Party’s rights or obligations hereunder nor any interest therein may be assigned or delegated by any Credit Party without the prior written consent of all Lenders. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, Affiliates of each of the Agents and Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

184

(b) Register. Each Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lender shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Revolving Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof (notwithstanding any notice to the contrary), and no assignment or transfer of any such Revolving Commitment or Loan shall be effective, in each case, unless and until recorded in the Register following receipt of an Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or transfer thereof as provided in Section 10.6(d), together with any Revolving Loan Note (if the assigning Lender’s Loans are evidenced by a Revolving Loan Note) subject to such assignment. Each assignment shall be recorded in the Register on the Business Day the Assignment Agreement is received by the Administrative Agent, if received by 12:00 noon New York City time, and on the following Business Day if received after such time, prompt notice thereof shall be provided to the Borrowers and a copy of such Assignment Agreement shall be maintained. The date of such recordation of a transfer shall be referred to herein as the “Assignment Closing Date.” Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be presumptively correct as to any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Revolving Commitments or Loans.

(c) Right to Assign. Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment or Loans owing to it or other Obligations (with, in all cases other than assignments by or to the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, the consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) of the Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Lenders in addition to the consents required below); provided, however, that each such assignment shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any Revolving Loan and any related Revolving Commitments:

(i) to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (i) of the definition of the term of “Eligible Assignee,” (other than a Disqualified Institution) upon the giving of notice to the Administrative Agent; and

(ii) to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (ii) of the definition of the term of “Eligible Assignee” (other than a Disqualified Institution) upon giving of notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and (except in the case of assignments made to an Affiliate of an Agent (other than a Disqualified Institution)), being consented to by the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be (x) unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided that the Parent Borrower shall have absolute consent rights with regard to any proposed assignment to a Disqualified Institution, (y) in the case of the Parent Borrower, required at any time an Event of Default under Sections 8.1(a), (f) or (g), shall have occurred and then be continuing); provided, further (A) each such assignment pursuant to this Section 10.6(c)(ii) shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than Dollar Equivalent $5,000,000 or integral multiples of Dollar Equivalent $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent or as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans of the assigning Lender) with respect to the assignment of the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans; provided that Related Funds may aggregate their Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans for purposes of determining compliance with such minimum assignment amount and (B) in the case of an assignment by a Lender, such Person shall meet the criteria of the definition of the term of “Lender.”

Any assignment purported to be made in contravention of the foregoing requirements shall be prohibited.

185

(d) Mechanics. Assignments and assumptions of Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments shall only be effected by manual execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of an Assignment Agreement. Such assignments shall cover the same percentage of such Lender’s Revolving Commitments and Revolving Credit Exposure. Assignments made pursuant to the foregoing provision shall be effective as of the Assignment Closing Date. In connection with all assignments, there shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver pursuant to Section 2.19(c).

(e) Representations and Warranties of Assignee. Each Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon succeeding to an interest in the Revolving Commitments and Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the Closing Date or as of the Assignment Closing Date that (i) it is an Eligible Assignee; (ii) it has experience and expertise in the making of or investing in commitments or loans such as the applicable Revolving Commitments or Loans, as the case may be; and (iii) it will make or invest in, as the case may be, its Revolving Commitments or Loans for its own account in the ordinary course and without a view to distribution of such Revolving Commitments or Loans within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.6, the disposition of such Revolving Commitments or Loans or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control).

(f) Effect of Assignment. On and after the applicable Assignment Closing Date, upon the recording of such assignment and acceptance in the Register and the receipt by the Administrative Agent from the assignee of an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 (it being understood and agreed that (x) substantially contemporaneous assignments to any two or more Related Funds shall be treated as an assignment to a single Eligible Assignee for purposes of the applicable amount of such assignment fee and (y) no such assignment fee shall be required in connection with assignments by or to any Agent or Affiliate thereof), (i) the assignee thereunder shall become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations under the Credit Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender and, if such Lender were an Issuing Bank, of such Issuing Bank hereunder and thereunder, (ii) the Revolving Loan Notes (if any) corresponding to the Loans assigned thereby shall be transferred to such assignee by notation in the Register and (iii) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from its obligations under the Credit Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under the Credit Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from its obligations under the Credit Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under the Credit Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

(g) Participations. Each Lender shall have the right (without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers and Agents (except as set forth below)) at any time to sell one or more participations to any Person (other than Holdings or any of its Affiliates or a natural person or a Person that the Administrative Agent has identified in a notice to the Lenders as a Defaulting Lender or a Disqualified Institution) in all or any part of its Revolving Commitments, Loans or in any other Obligation (such Person, a “Participant”). The holder of any such participation, other than an Affiliate of the Lender granting such participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except that the participation agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (i) extend the final scheduled

186

maturity of any Loan, Note or Letter of Credit (unless such Letter of Credit is not extended beyond the Revolving Commitment Termination Date) in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates or amendments to the definition of Excess Availability that would impact the amount of the Applicable Margin) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Revolving Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Revolving Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Borrower or any Guarantor which is a Subsidiary of Parent Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (except as expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.4) or (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Collateral Documents (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) supporting the Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating. The Borrowers agree that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17(d), 2.18 and 2.19 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirement to provide any applicable documentation under Section 2.19(c)); provided a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.18 or 2.19 than the Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, unless such entitlement to a greater payment results from a change in any Law after the sale of the participation takes place. With respect to any Loan, each Lender that sells participations to a participant, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain a register of all such participants. The entries in the participant register shall be conclusive (absent manifest error), and the Borrowers and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the participant register pursuant to the terms hereof as a participant for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.4 as though it were a Lender, provided such participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.16 as though it were a Lender.

(h) Certain Other Assignments. In addition to any other assignment permitted pursuant to this Section 10.6, any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, assign and/or pledge all or any portion of its Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to such Lender, and its Notes, if any (in each case, other than to a Disqualified Institution), to secure obligations of such Lender including, without limitation, any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank; provided, no Lender, as between the Borrowers and such Lender, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge, and provided further, in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank, pledgee or trustee be considered to be a “Lender” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.

10.7 Independence of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

10.8 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the making of any Credit Extension. Notwithstanding anything herein or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of each Credit Party set forth in Sections 2.17(d), 2.18, 2.19, 10.2 and 10.3 and the agreements of Lenders set forth in Sections 2.16, 9.3(b) and 9.6 shall survive the payment of the Loans, the cancellation or expiration of the Letters of Credit and the payment of any Reimbursement Obligations, and the termination hereof.

187

10.9 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any Agent or any Lender or any Issuing Bank in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. The rights, powers and remedies given to each Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Credit Documents or any of the Secured Cash Management Agreements or any of the Secured Hedge Agreements. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

10.10 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. Neither any Agent nor any Lender nor any other Secured Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Credit Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Credit Party makes a payment or payments to any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank (or to the Applicable Agent, on behalf of any such Person) pursuant to the terms of any of the Credit Documents or otherwise related to the Obligations, or any Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank enforces any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

10.11 Severability. In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

10.12 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Revolving Commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other Credit Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out hereof and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

10.13 Headings. Section headings herein are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

10.14 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF.

188

10.15 CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; SERVICE OF PROCESS. SUBJECT TO CLAUSE (E) OF THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE, ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY PARTY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING HERETO OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS, OR ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS, SHALL BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN THE STATE, COUNTY AND CITY OF NEW YORK. BY EXECUTING AND DELIVERING THIS AGREEMENT, EACH CREDIT PARTY, FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, IRREVOCABLY (A) ACCEPTS GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS (OTHER THAN WITH RESPECT TO ACTIONS BY ANY AGENT IN RESPECT OF RIGHTS UNDER ANY SECURITY AGREEMENT GOVERNED BY LAWS OTHER THAN THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR WITH RESPECT TO ANY COLLATERAL SUBJECT THERETO); (B) WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS; (C) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO THE APPLICABLE CREDIT PARTY AT ITS ADDRESS PROVIDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 10.1; (D) AGREES THAT SERVICE AS PROVIDED IN CLAUSE (C) ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER THE APPLICABLE CREDIT PARTY IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT; AND (E) AGREES THAT AGENTS AND LENDERS RETAIN THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY CREDIT PARTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN CONNECTION WITH THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS UNDER ANY COLLATERAL DOCUMENT OR THE ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT.

10.16 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION OR THE LENDER/BORROWERS RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN ITS RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS SECTION 10.16 AND EXECUTED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS HERETO OR ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE LOANS MADE HEREUNDER. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

189

10.17 Confidentiality. Each Agent and each Lender shall hold all non-public information regarding Holdings and its Subsidiaries, and their respective businesses identified as such by Holdings or any Borrower and obtained by such Lender pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with such Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of such nature, it being understood and agreed by each Credit Party that, in any event, each Agent and each Lender may make (i) disclosures of such information to Affiliates of such Lender or Agent and to their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, trustees and advisors (and to other Persons authorized by a Lender or Agent to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 10.17), (ii) disclosures of such information reasonably required by any bona fide or potential assignee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation of any Loans or any participations therein or by any pledgee referred to in Section 10.6(h) or by any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrowers and their obligations (provided, such assignees, transferees, participants, pledgees, counterparties and advisors are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 10.17 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 10.17), (iii) disclosure to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Credit Parties received by it from any of the Agents or any Lender, and (iv) disclosures required or requested by any governmental agency or regulatory authority or representative thereof or by the NAIC or pursuant to legal or judicial process; provided, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender and each Agent shall make reasonable efforts to notify the Borrowers of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of such Lender by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information. In addition, each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and publicly available information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitments and the Borrowings hereunder.

The Applicable Agents agree to keep confidential the Submitted Reference Bank Rates to be used in the calculation of the Reference Bank Rate; provided that the Submitted Reference Bank Rates may be shared with any Borrower and any of its employees, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors or those of any of its affiliates that have a commercially reasonable business need to know such rates; provided that, prior to receipt of such rates, any recipient thereof (other than a Borrower) shall (i) certify to the Applicable Agent that it is not an individual who is formally designated as being involved in the ICE LIBOR (or other applicable eurocurrency rate) submission process and (ii) shall agree to comply with the provisions of this paragraph as if it were the Applicable Agent. Each Borrower hereby represents and warrants, as of each date on which it receives Submitted Reference Bank Rates, that it is not an individual who is formally designated as being involved in the ICE LIBOR (or other applicable eurocurrency rate) submission process, and agrees to comply with the provisions of this paragraph as if it were the Applicable Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, the Reference Bank Rate may be disclosed by the Applicable Agent to Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

10.18 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with all of the other Credit Documents and all certificates and documents delivered hereunder or thereunder, embodies the entire agreement of the parties and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any other Credit Document (other than the Intercreditor Agreement), the terms of this Agreement shall govern. This Agreement and each other Credit Document are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement in all respects and, in the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement or any other Credit Document, the terms of Intercreditor Agreement shall govern.

190

10.19 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are attached to the same document. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission, electronic mail or by posting on the Platform shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all parties shall be lodged with the Parent Borrower and Administrative Agent.

10.20 PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Borrower, which information includes the name and address of such Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Borrower in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

10.21 Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

10.22 Joint and Several Liability. All Revolving Loans upon funding shall be deemed to be jointly funded to and received by the Borrowers. Each Borrower is jointly and severally liable under this Agreement for all Obligations, regardless of the manner or amount in which proceeds of Revolving Loans are used, allocated, shared or disbursed by or among the Borrowers themselves, or the manner in which an Agent and/or any Lender accounts for such Revolving Loans or other extensions of credit on its books and records. Each Borrower shall be liable for all amounts due to an Agent and/or any Lender from the Borrowers under this Agreement, regardless of which Borrower actually receives Revolving Loans or other extensions of credit hereunder or the amount of such Revolving Loans and extensions of credit received or the manner in which such Agent and/or such Lender accounts for such Revolving Loans or other extensions of credit on its books and records. Each Borrower’s Obligations with respect to Revolving Loans and other extensions of credit made to it, and such Borrower’s Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of such Borrower hereunder with respect to Revolving Loans made to the other Borrowers hereunder shall be separate and distinct Obligations, but all such Obligations shall be primary Obligations of such Borrower. The Borrowers acknowledge and expressly agree with the Agents and each Lender that the joint and several liability of each Borrower is required solely as a condition to, and is given solely as inducement for and in consideration of, credit or accommodations extended or to be extended under the Credit Documents to any or all of the other Borrowers and is not required or given as a condition of extensions of credit to such Borrower. Each Borrower’s Obligations under this Agreement shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be unconditional irrespective of (i) the validity or enforceability, avoidance, or subordination of the Obligations of any other Borrower or of any promissory note or other document evidencing all or any part of the Obligations of any other Borrower, (ii) the absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from any other Borrower, or any other security therefor, or the absence of any other action to enforce the same, (iii) the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance, or granting of any indulgence by an Agent and/or any Lender with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the Obligations of any

191

other Borrower, or any part thereof, or any other agreement now or hereafter executed by any other Borrower and delivered to an Agent and/or any Lender, (iv) the failure by an Agent and/or any Lender to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for the Obligations of any other Borrower, (v) an Agent’s and/or any Lender’s election, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, (vi) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by any other Borrower, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, (vii) the disallowance of all or any portion of an Agent’s and/or any Lender’s claim(s) for the repayment of the Obligations of any other Borrower under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (viii) any other circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor or of any other Borrower. With respect to any Borrower’s Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of the Borrowers hereunder with respect to Revolving Loans or other extensions of credit made to any of the other Borrowers hereunder, such Borrower waives, until the Obligations shall have been paid in full and this Agreement shall have been terminated, any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which an Agent and/or any Lender now has or may hereafter have against any other Borrower, any endorser or any Guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to an Agent and/or any Lender to secure payment of the Obligations or any other liability of any Borrower to an Agent and/or any Lender. Upon any Event of Default, the Agents may proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Borrower to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of the Obligations, without first proceeding against any other Borrower or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations. Each Borrower consents and agrees that the Agents shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Borrower or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, none of the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.22 shall apply to any Person released from its Obligations as a Borrower in accordance with Section 10.5.

10.23 Agency of the Parent Borrower for Each Other Borrower and Guarantor. Each of the other Borrowers and Guarantors irrevocably appoints the Parent Borrower as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement, including the giving and receipt of notices and execution and delivery of all documents, instruments, and certificates contemplated herein (including, without limitation, execution and delivery to the Agents of Borrowing Base Certificates, Funding Notices and Conversion/Continuation Notices) and all modifications hereto. Any acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification, or other action which might otherwise be valid or effective only if given or taken by all or any of the Borrowers or acting singly, shall be valid and effective if given or taken only by the Parent Borrower, whether or not any of the other Borrowers join therein, and the Agents and the Lenders shall have no duty or obligation to make further inquiry with respect to the authority of the Parent Borrower under this Section 10.23; provided that nothing in this Section 10.23 shall limit the effectiveness of, or the right of the Agents and the Lenders to rely upon, any notice (including without limitation a Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice), document, instrument, certificate, acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification or other action delivered by any Borrower pursuant to this Agreement.

10.24 Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Lien granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to any Credit Document and the exercise of any right or remedy in respect of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Credit Document are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, this Agreement and any other Credit Document, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control with respect to any right or remedy. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral of the Collateral Agent (and the Secured Parties) shall be subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. Prior to the Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations, the delivery of any Fixed Asset Collateral to the collateral agent under the Term Loan Credit Agreement pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement entered into on the date hereof shall satisfy any delivery requirement hereunder or under any other Credit Document to the extent that such delivery is consistent with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

192

10.25 Contribution and Indemnification Among the Borrowers. Each Borrower is obligated to repay the Obligations as a joint and several obligor under this Agreement. To the extent that any Borrower shall, under this Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the Obligations constituting Loans made to another Borrower hereunder or other Obligations incurred directly and primarily by any other Borrower (such other Borrower, the “Other Borrower” and such payment, an “Accommodation Payment”), then the Borrower making such Accommodation Payment shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Borrowers and such Other Borrower in an amount, for each of such other Borrowers and the Other Borrower, equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Borrower’s or Other Borrower’s Allocable Amount (as defined below) and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the Borrowers. As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Borrower hereunder without (a) rendering such Borrower “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101(31) of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (“UFTA”) or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (“UFCA”), (b) leaving such Borrower with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (c) leaving such Borrower unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA. All rights and claims of contribution, indemnification, and reimbursement under this Section shall be subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the Obligations. The provisions of this Section shall, to the extent expressly inconsistent with any provision in any Credit Document, supersede such inconsistent provision.

10.26 Express Waivers by Borrowers in Respect of Cross Guaranties and Cross Collateralization. Each Borrower agrees as follows:

(a) Each Borrower hereby waives: (i) notice of acceptance of this Agreement; (ii) notice of the making of any Loans, the issuance of any Letter of Credit or any other financial accommodations made or extended under the Credit Documents or the creation or existence of any Obligations; (iii) notice of the amount of the Obligations, subject, however, to such Borrower’s right to make inquiry of the Administrative Agent to ascertain the amount of the Obligations at any reasonable time; (iv) notice of any adverse change in the financial condition of any other Borrower or of any other fact that might increase such Borrower’s risk with respect to such other Borrower under the Credit Documents; (v) notice of presentment for payment, demand, protest, and notice thereof as to any promissory notes or other instruments among the Credit Documents; and (vi) all other notices (except if such notice is specifically required to be given to such Borrower hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents to which such Borrower is a party) and demands to which such Borrower might otherwise be entitled;

(b) Each Borrower hereby waives the right by statute or otherwise to require an Agent or any Lender to institute suit against any other Borrower or to exhaust any rights and remedies which an Agent or any Lender has or may have against any other Borrower. Each Borrower further waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of any other Borrower (other than the defense of payment in full) or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of any such Borrower in respect thereof;

193

(c) Each Borrower hereby waives and agrees not to assert against any Agent, any Lender, or any Issuing Bank: (i) any defense (legal or equitable) other than a defense of payment, set-off, counterclaim, or claim which such Borrower may now or at any time hereafter have against any other Borrower or any other party liable under the Credit Documents; (ii) any defense, set-off, counterclaim, or claim of any kind or nature available to any other Borrower (other than a defense of payment) against any Agent, any Lender, or any Issuing Bank, arising directly or indirectly from the present or future lack of perfection, sufficiency, validity, or enforceability of the Obligations or any security therefor; (iii) any right or defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by any Agent, any Lender, or any Issuing Bank under any applicable law; (iv) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting any other Borrower’s liability hereunder;

(d) Each Borrower consents and agrees that, without notice to or by such Borrower and without affecting or impairing the obligations of such Borrower hereunder, the Agents may (subject to any requirement for consent of any of the Lenders to the extent required by this Agreement), by action or inaction: (i) compromise, settle, extend the duration or the time for the payment of, or discharge the performance of, or may refuse to or otherwise not enforce the Issuer Documents; (ii) release all or any one or more parties to any one or more of the Issuer Documents or grant other indulgences to any other Borrower in respect thereof; (iii) amend or modify in any manner and at any time (or from time to time) any of the Issuer Documents; or (iv) release or substitute any Person liable for payment of the Obligations, or enforce, exchange, release, or waive any security for the Obligations; and

(e) Each Borrower represents and warrants to the Agents and the Lenders that such Borrower is currently informed of the financial condition of all other Borrowers and all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations. Each Borrower further represents and warrants that such Borrower has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Credit Documents. Each Borrower agrees that neither the Agents, any Lender, nor any issuing Bank has any responsibility to inform any Borrower of the financial condition of any other Borrower or of any other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations.

10.27 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Credit Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Credit Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to any Write-Down and Conversion Powers and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: (a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and (b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: (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 EEA Financial Institution, its parent entity, 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 Credit Document; or (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers.

10.28 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby, the Borrowers acknowledge and agree that: (i) the credit facilities provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) are an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Borrowers and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers (which term for purposes of this Section 10.28 shall include the Arrangers, co-syndication agents and Documentation Agents) and the Lenders, on the other hand, and the Borrowers are capable of evaluating and understanding and understand and accept the terms, risks and

194

conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or thereof); (ii) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders each is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates; (iii) none of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or the Lenders have assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrowers with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or the Lenders have advised or are currently advising the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates on other matters) and none of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or the Lenders has any obligation to the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (iv) the Administrative Agent, each Arranger, each Lender and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrowers and their Affiliates, and none of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or the Lenders has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders have not provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and the Borrowers have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they have deemed appropriate. The Borrowers hereby waive and release, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that they may have against the Administrative Agent, each Arranger and each Lender with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.
