(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for purposes of determining compliance with any test contained in this Agreement, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and any other financial ratio or test shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, including to give effect to all Specified Transactions that have been made during the applicable period of measurement or subsequent to such period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation is made, and in making any determination on a Pro Forma Basis, such calculations shall be made in good faith by a Financial Officer and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 1.03 Terms Generally. The definitions of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” Unless the context requires otherwise, (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement (including this Agreement and the other Loan Documents), instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, restatements, supplements or other modifications set forth herein), (b) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns (subject to any restrictions on assignment set forth herein) and, in the case of any Governmental Authority, any other Governmental Authority that shall have succeeded to any or all functions thereof, (c) the words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder,” and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (d) all references herein to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement and (e) the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts and contract rights.

Section 1.05 Limited Condition Acquisitions. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Loan Document to the contrary, when calculating any applicable ratio or any basket based on Consolidated EBITDA or total assets, or determining other compliance with this Agreement (including the determination of compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires that no Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result therefrom, but excluding Section 4.02 to the extent set forth therein) in connection with a Specified Transaction undertaken in connection with the consummation of a Limited Condition Acquisition, the date of determination of such ratio or any basket based on Consolidated EBITDA or total assets, and determination of whether any Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result therefrom or other applicable covenant shall, at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Acquisition, an “LCA Election”), be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into (the “LCA Test Date”) and if, after such ratios and other provisions are measured on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to such Limited Condition Acquisition and the other Specified Transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they occurred at the beginning of the applicable Test Period ending prior to the LCA Test Date, the Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCA Test Date in compliance with such ratios and provisions, such provisions shall be deemed to have been complied with; provided that no such acquisition shall constitute a Limited Condition Acquisition unless the Payment Conditions are satisfied on a Pro Forma Basis on the

applicable LCA Test Date. For the avoidance of doubt, (x) if any of such ratios are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in such ratio (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Acquisition, such ratios and other provisions will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Acquisition is permitted hereunder and (y) such ratios and other provisions shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition or related Specified Transactions. If the Borrower has made an LCA Election for any Limited Condition Acquisition, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket availability with respect to any other Specified Transaction on or following the relevant LCA Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.

(a) For purposes of determining compliance with any of the covenants set forth in Article V or Article VI (including in connection with any Incremental Facility) at any time (whether at the time of incurrence or thereafter), any Lien, Investment, Indebtedness, Disposition, Restricted Payment or Affiliate transaction meets the criteria of one, or more than one, of the categories permitted pursuant to Article V or Article VI (including in connection with any Incremental Facility), the Borrower (i) shall in its sole discretion determine under which category such Lien (other than Liens with respect to the Initial Term Loans), Investment, Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness consisting of the Initial Term Loans), Disposition, Restricted Payment or Affiliate transaction (or, in each case, any portion thereof) is permitted and (ii) shall be permitted, in its sole discretion, to make any redetermination and/or to divide, classify or reclassify under which category or categories such Lien, Investment, Indebtedness, Disposition, Restricted Payment or Affiliate transaction is permitted from time to time as it may determine and without notice to the Administrative Agent or any Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, if the applicable date for meeting any requirement hereunder or under any other Loan Document falls on a day that is not a Business Day, compliance with such requirement shall not be required until noon on the first Business Day following such applicable date.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or test (including, without limitation, any Total Net Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Senior Secured First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and/or Interest Coverage Ratio) (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that requires compliance with any such financial ratio or test (any such amounts, the “Incurrence Based Amounts”), it is understood and agreed that the Fixed Amounts (and any cash proceeds thereof) shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to the Incurrence Based Amounts in connection with such substantially concurrent incurrence, except that incurrences of Indebtedness and Liens constituting Fixed Amounts shall be taken into account for purposes of Incurrence Based Amounts other than Incurrence Based Amounts contained in Section 7.01 or Section 7.02.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement shall be deemed to be reasonable and acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be deemed to have consented to the use of any such ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement (and to the Administrative Agent’s execution thereof) in connection with any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred, issued and/or assumed by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to Section 7.01.

Section 2.01 Establishment of the Credit Facility. On the Closing Date, and subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Swing Line Lender and each LC Issuer agree to establish the Initial Revolving Facility for the benefit of the Borrower.

Section 2.02 Revolving Facility. During the Revolving Facility Availability Period, each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make a Revolving Loan or Revolving Loans to the Borrower from time to time pursuant to such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, which Revolving Loans may, except as set forth herein (and subject to Section 2.12), at the option of the Borrower, be incurred and maintained as, or Converted into, Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans, in each case denominated in U.S. Dollars; provided that all Revolving Loans (i) made as part of the same Revolving Borrowing shall consist of Revolving Loans of the same Type, (ii) may be repaid or prepaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof and (iii) shall not be made if, after giving effect to any such Revolving Loan, (A) the Revolving Facility Exposure of any Lender plus the principal amount of Swing Loans of any Lender would exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, (B) the Aggregate Credit Facility Exposure would exceed (x) the Total Revolving Commitment or (y) the Maximum Borrowing Amount or (C) the Borrower would be required to prepay Loans or cash collateralize Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.05(c) (in each case, subject to the Administrative Agent’s authority, in its sole discretion, to make Protective Advances and Overadvances pursuant to the terms of Section 2.03). The Revolving Loans to be made by each Lender will be made by such Lender on a pro rata basis based upon such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of each Revolving Borrowing, in each case in accordance with Section 2.09 hereof. Each Lender having a Revolving Commitment Increase or Extended Revolving Credit Commitment hereby severally, and not jointly, agrees on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the applicable Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement or Extension Amendment to make Incremental Revolving Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Loans, as applicable, to the Borrower, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in such Lender’s Incremental Revolving Credit Exposure or Extended Revolving Credit Exposure, as applicable, exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Increase or Extended Revolving Credit Commitment, as applicable. Within the limits set forth in the preceding sentence and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and re-borrow Initial Revolving Loans, Incremental Revolving Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Loans, as applicable.

Each Lender may at its option make any Revolving Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that (A) any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan and (B) in exercising such option, such Lender shall use its reasonable efforts to minimize any increased costs to the Borrower resulting therefrom (which obligation of the Lender shall not require it to take, or refrain from taking, actions that it determines would result in increased costs for which it will not be compensated hereunder or that it determines would be otherwise disadvantageous to it and in the event of such request for costs for which compensation is provided under this Agreement, the provisions of Section 3.01 shall apply).

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth below, the Administrative Agent is authorized by the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have absolutely no obligation), to make Loans to the Borrower, on behalf of all Lenders regardless of whether any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.02 has been satisfied or waived, including any failure by the Borrower to comply with the requirements set forth in Section 2.02, which the Administrative Agent 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 the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (each such Loan, a “Protective Advance”). Any Protective Advance may be made in a principal amount that would cause the Aggregate Credit Facility Exposure to exceed the Borrowing Base; provided that no Protective Advance may be made to the extent that, after giving effect to such Protective Advance (together with the outstanding principal amount of any outstanding Protective Advances), the aggregate principal amount of Protective Advances outstanding hereunder would exceed, as determined on the date of such proposed Protective Advance, and is not known by the Administrative Agent to exceed, together with Overadvances described in Section 2.03(c), 10.0% of the Maximum Borrowing Amount, at such time; provided, further, that, (i) the aggregate amount of outstanding Protective Advances plus any Overadvances described in Section 2.03(c) plus the aggregate of all other Revolving Facility Exposure shall not exceed the aggregate Total Revolving Commitments and (ii) the Revolving Exposure of any Lender shall not exceed the Revolving Commitment of such Lender. The Administrative Agent agrees to use reasonable efforts to deliver prompt notice to the Lenders of any Protective Advance or Overadvance. Each Protective Advance shall be secured by the Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Obligations hereunder. The Administrative

Agent’s authorization to make Protective Advances may be revoked at any time by the Required Lenders. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof. The making of a Protective Advance on any one occasion shall not obligate the Administrative Agent to make any Protective Advance on any other occasion. At any time that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have been satisfied or waived, the Administrative Agent may request the Revolving Lenders to make a Revolving Loan to repay a Protective Advance. At any other time, the Administrative Agent may require the Lenders to fund their risk participations described in Section 2.03(b).

(b) Upon the making of a Protective Advance by the Administrative Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default), each Revolving Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, unconditionally and irrevocably to have 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 Revolving Lender is required to fund its participation in any Protective Advance purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Revolving Lender, such Revolving 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.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Section 2.03 or this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and whether or not a Default or Event of Default exists at the time, the Administrative Agent may require all Revolving Lenders to honor requests or deemed requests by the Borrower for Revolving Loans at a time that an Overadvance Condition exists or which would result in an Overadvance Condition and each Lender shall be obligated to continue to make its pro rata share of any such Overadvance Loan up to a maximum amount outstanding equal to its Revolving Commitment at such time, so long as such Overadvance is not known by the Administrative Agent to exceed 10.0% of the Maximum Borrowing Amount, at such time, but in no event shall such Overadvance exist for more than forty-five (45) consecutive days; provided that (i) the aggregate amount of outstanding Overadvances plus any Protective Advances described in Section 2.03(a) plus the aggregate of all other Revolving Facility Exposure shall not exceed the aggregate Total Revolving Commitments and (ii) the Revolving Facility Exposure of any Lender shall not exceed the Revolving Commitment of such Lender. The Administrative Agent’s authorization to require Revolving Lenders to honor requests or deemed requests for Overadvance Loans may be revoked at any time by the Required Lenders.

(a) Swing Loans. During the Revolving Facility Availability Period, the Swing Line Lender agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make a Swing Loan or Swing Loans to the Borrower from time to time, which Swing Loans: (i) shall be payable on the Swing Loan Maturity Date applicable to each such Swing Loan; (ii) shall be made in U.S. Dollars and shall be Base Rate Loans; (iii) may be repaid or prepaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof; (iv) may only be made if after giving effect thereto (A) the aggregate principal amount of Swing Loans outstanding does not exceed the Swing Line Commitment, and (B) the Aggregate Credit Facility Exposure would not exceed (x) the Total Revolving Commitment or (y) the Maximum Borrowing Amount; (v) shall not be made if, after giving effect thereto, the Borrower would be required to prepay Loans or cash collateralize Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.05(c) hereof; and (vi) shall not be made if the proceeds thereof would be used to repay, in whole or in part, any outstanding Swing Loan.

(b) Swing Loan Refunding. At least once each calendar week (or more frequently at Swing Line Lender’s election), the Swing Line Lender shall direct that the Swing Loans owing to it be refunded by delivering a notice to such effect to the Administrative Agent, specifying the aggregate principal amount thereof (a “Notice of Swing Loan Refunding”). Promptly upon receipt of a Notice of Swing Loan Refunding, the Administrative Agent shall give notice of the contents thereof to the Lenders with Revolving Commitments and, unless an Event of Default specified in Section 8.01(h) or Section 8.01(i) in respect of a Borrower has occurred, the applicable Borrower. Each such Notice of Swing Loan Refunding shall be deemed to constitute delivery by the Borrower of a Notice of Borrowing requesting Revolving Loans consisting of Base Rate Loans in the amount of the Swing Loans to which it relates notwithstanding (i) that the Notice of Swing Loan Refunding may not comply with the requirements specified in Section 2.08, (ii) whether any conditions specified in Section 4.02 are then satisfied, (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (iv) the date of such Notice of Swing Loan Refunding or (v) any reduction in the Total Revolving Commitment after any such Swing Loans were made. Each Lender with a Revolving

Commitment (including the Swing Line Lender) hereby unconditionally agrees (notwithstanding that any of the conditions specified in Section 4.02 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not have been satisfied, but subject to the provisions of paragraph (d) below) to make a Revolving Loan to the designated Borrower in the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Swing Loans to which such Notice of Swing Loan Refunding relates. Each such Lender shall make the amount of such Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Payment Office not later than 3:00 p.m. (local time at the Payment Office), if such notice is received by such Lender prior to 12:00 p.m. (local time at its Notice Office), or not later than 3:00 p.m. (Local Time at the Payment Office) on the next Business Day, if such notice is received by such Lender after such time). The proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be made immediately available to the Swing Line Lender and applied by it to repay the principal amount of the Swing Loans to which such Notice of Swing Loan Refunding relates.

(c) Swing Loan Participation. If prior to the time a Revolving Loan would otherwise have been made as provided above as a consequence of a Notice of Swing Loan Refunding, any of the events specified in Section 8.01(h) or Section 8.01(i) shall have occurred in respect of the Borrower or one or more of the Lenders with Revolving Commitments shall determine that it is legally prohibited from making a Revolving Loan under such circumstances, each Lender (other than the Swing Line Lender), or each Lender (other than such Swing Line Lender) so prohibited, as the case may be, shall, on the date such Revolving Loan would have been made by it (the “Purchase Date”), subject to the provisions of Section 2.04(d), purchase an undivided participating interest (a “Swing Loan Participation”) in the outstanding Swing Loans to which such Notice of Swing Loan Refunding relates, in an amount (the “Swing Loan Participation Amount”) equal to such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of such outstanding Swing Loans. On the Purchase Date, each such Lender or each such Lender so prohibited, as the case may be, shall pay to the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, such Lender’s Swing Loan Participation Amount, and promptly upon receipt thereof the Swing Line Lender shall, if requested by such other Lender, deliver to such Lender a participation certificate, dated the date of the Swing Line Lender’s receipt of the funds from, and evidencing such Lender’s Swing Loan Participation in, such Swing Loans and its Swing Loan Participation Amount in respect thereof. If any amount required to be paid by a Lender to the Swing Line Lender pursuant to the above provisions in respect of any Swing Loan Participation is not paid on the date such payment is due, such Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender on demand interest on the amount not so paid at the overnight Federal Funds Effective Rate from the due date until such amount is paid in full. Whenever, at any time after the Swing Line Lender has received from any other Lender such Lender’s Swing Loan Participation Amount, the Swing Line Lender receives any payment from or on behalf of a Borrower on account of the related Swing Loans, the Swing Line Lender will promptly distribute to such Lender its ratable share of such amount based on its Revolving Facility Percentage of such amount on such date on account of its Swing Loan Participation (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that if such payment received by the Swing Line Lender is required to be returned, such Lender will return to the Swing Line Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by the Swing Line Lender.

(d) Obligations Unconditional. Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(b) and/or to purchase Swing Loan Participations in connection with a Notice of Swing Loan Refunding shall be subject to the conditions that (i) such Lender shall have received a Notice of Swing Loan Refunding complying with the provisions hereof and (ii) at the time the Swing Loans that are the subject of such Notice of Swing Loan Refunding were made, the Swing Line Lender making the same had no actual written notice from another Lender or the Administrative Agent that a Default or Event of Default had occurred and was continuing (or any other applicable funding condition under Section 4.02 was not satisfied), but otherwise shall be absolute and unconditional, shall be solely for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender that gives such Notice of Swing Loan Refunding, and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against any other Lender, any Loan Party, or any other Person, or any Loan Party may have against any Lender or other Person, as the case may be, for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default; (C) any event or circumstance involving a Material Adverse Effect; (D) any breach of any Loan Document by any party thereto; or (E) any other circumstance, happening or event, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(e) Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments. If the maturity date shall have occurred in respect of any tranche of Revolving Commitments (the “Expiring Credit Commitment”) at a time when

another tranche or tranches of Revolving Commitments is or are in effect with a longer maturity date (each a “Non-Expiring Credit Commitment” and collectively, the “Non-Expiring Credit Commitments”), then with respect to each outstanding Swing Loan, if consented to by the applicable Swing Line Lender, on the earliest occurring maturity date such Swing Loan shall be deemed reallocated to the tranche or tranches of the Non-Expiring Credit Commitments on a pro rata basis; provided that to the extent that the amount of such reallocation would cause the aggregate credit exposure to exceed the aggregate amount of such Non-Expiring Credit Commitments, immediately prior to such reallocation the amount of Swing Loans to be reallocated equal to such excess shall be repaid or Cash Collateralized. Upon the maturity date of any tranche of Revolving Commitments, the sublimit for Swing Loans may be reduced as agreed between the Swing Line Lender and the Borrower, without the consent of any other Person.

(a) LC Issuances. During the Revolving Facility Availability Period, the Borrower may request, for itself or on behalf of any Restricted Subsidiary, an LC Issuer at any time and from time to time to issue, for the account of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, and subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, each LC Issuer agrees to issue from time to time Letters of Credit denominated and payable in U.S. Dollars in such form as may be approved by such LC Issuer and such Borrower; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no LC Issuance shall be made if, after giving effect thereto, (i) the LC Outstandings would exceed the LC Commitment Amount, (ii) the Revolving Facility Exposure of any Lender plus any Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the principal amount of Swing Loans outstanding would exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, (iii) the Aggregate Credit Facility Exposure would exceed (x) the Total Revolving Commitment or (y) the Maximum Borrowing Amount, (iv) the Borrower would be required to prepay Loans or Cash Collateralize Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.05(c) hereof, (v) the applicable LC Issuer has been notified in writing by the Administrative Agent that a Default or Event of Default exists (or any other applicable condition under Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied); provided that Borrower shall be a co-applicant, and be jointly and severally liable, with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for the account of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Borrower. Subject to Section 2.05(c) below, each Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date (including any renewal periods) occurring not later than the earlier of (y) one year from the date of issuance thereof (except as otherwise permitted under Section 2.05(c)), or (z) five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Facility Termination Date (the “Letter of Credit Expiration Date”); provided that any Letter of Credit may extend beyond the date referred to in clause (z) above to the extent such Letter of Credit is Cash Collateralized or back-stopped in a manner and in an amount reasonably satisfactory to the relevant LC Issuer. The Existing Letters of Credit will be deemed Letters of Credit issued hereunder for the account of the Borrower and will be subject to the terms hereof, regardless of whether or not the applicant under any Existing Letter of Credit is an LC Obligor; provided further that in any event the Revolving Lenders’ LC Participation Obligations under this Section 2.05 shall terminate on the Revolving Facility Termination Date.

(b) LC Requests. Whenever a Borrower desires that a Letter of Credit be issued for its account or the account of any eligible LC Obligor, Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent and the applicable LC Issuer written notice which shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit M (each such request, an “LC Request”), or transmit by electronic communication (if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable LC Issuer), at least two (2) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the relevant LC Issuer) prior to the proposed date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day), which LC Request shall include such supporting documents that such LC Issuer customarily requires in connection therewith (including, in the case of a Letter of Credit for an account party other than a Borrower, an application for, such Letter of Credit). In the event of any inconsistency between any of the terms or provisions of any LC Document and the terms and provisions of this Agreement respecting Letters of Credit, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall control.

(c) Auto-Renewal Letters of Credit. If Borrower so requests in any applicable LC Request, each LC Issuer shall agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions; provided, however, that any Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions must permit such LC Issuer to prevent any such renewal at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Once any such Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) such LC Issuer to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Facility Termination Date applicable to each Class of Revolving Commitments; provided, however, that such LC Issuer

shall not permit any such renewal if (i) such LC Issuer has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof, or (ii) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is two (2) Business Days before the date that such LC Issuer is permitted to send a notice of non-renewal from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied.

(d) Applicability of ISP98 and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable LC Issuer and the Borrower, when a Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance) shall apply to each Standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance (including the International Chamber of Commerce’s decision published by the Commission on Banking Technique and Practice on April 6, 1998 regarding the European single currency (euro)) shall apply to each Commercial Letter of Credit.

(e) Notice of LC Issuance. Each LC Issuer shall, on the date of each LC Issuance by it, give the Administrative Agent, and the Borrower written notice of such LC Issuance, accompanied by a copy to the Administrative Agent of the Letter of Credit or Letters of Credit issued by it. Each LC Issuer shall provide to the Administrative Agent a quarterly (or monthly if requested by any applicable Lender) summary describing each Letter of Credit issued by such LC Issuer and then outstanding and an identification for the relevant period of the daily aggregate LC Outstandings represented by Letters of Credit issued by such LC Issuer.

(i) The Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse (or cause any LC Obligor for whose account a Letter of Credit was issued to reimburse) each LC Issuer, by making payment directly to such LC Issuer in immediately available funds at the payment office of such LC Issuer, for any Unpaid Drawing with respect to any Letter of Credit within one Business Day after such LC Issuer notifies the Borrower (or any such other LC Obligor for whose account such Letter of Credit was issued) of such payment or disbursement (which notice to the Borrower (or such other LC Obligor) shall be delivered reasonably promptly after any such payment or disbursement), such payment to be made in U.S. Dollars, with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by such LC Issuer, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 1:00 P.M. (Local Time at the payment office of the applicable LC Issuer) on the date of such payment or disbursement, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but not including the date such LC Issuer is reimbursed therefor at a rate per annum that shall be the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(a) that are Eurodollar Loans or, if not reimbursed within one Business Day after such notice, at the Default Rate, any such interest also to be payable on demand. If by 12:00 noon Local Time on the Business Day immediately following notice to it of its obligation to make reimbursement in respect of an Unpaid Drawing, the Borrower has not made such reimbursement out of their available cash on hand or a contemporaneous Borrowing hereunder (if such Borrowing is otherwise available to the Borrower), (x) the Borrower will be deemed to have given a Notice of Borrowing for Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to reimburse such Unpaid Drawing (and the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice to the Lenders of such deemed Notice of Borrowing, and such deemed Notice of Borrowing is not required to comply with the requirements specified in Section 2.08), (y) the Lenders shall make the Revolving Loans contemplated by such deemed Notice of Borrowing (which Revolving Loans shall be considered made under Section 2.02), and (z) the proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be disbursed directly to the applicable LC Issuer to the extent necessary to effect such reimbursement and repayment of the Unpaid Drawing, with any excess proceeds to be made available to the applicable Borrower in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement.

(ii) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation under this Section 2.05 to reimburse each LC Issuer with respect to Unpaid Drawings (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower or other LC Obligor may have or have had against such LC Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such drawing; provided, however, that no LC Obligor shall be obligated to reimburse an LC Issuer for any wrongful payment made by such LC Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction on the part of such LC Issuer.

(i) Immediately upon each LC Issuance, the LC Issuer of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Lender with a Revolving Commitment, and each such Lender (each an “LC Participant”) shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such LC Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (an “LC Participation”), to the extent of such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time of issuance, in such Letter of Credit, each substitute Letter of Credit, each drawing made thereunder, the obligations of any LC Obligor under this Agreement with respect thereto (although LC Fees relating thereto shall be payable directly to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders as provided in Section 2.13 and the LC Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of any fees of the nature contemplated by Section 2.13(c)), the obligations of any LC Obligor under any LC Documents pertaining thereto, and any security for, or guaranty pertaining to, any of the foregoing.

(ii) In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, an LC Issuer shall not have any obligation relative to the LC Participants other than to determine that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by an LC Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct negligence as determined by a final non-appealable or a court of competent jurisdiction, shall not create for such LC Issuer any resulting liability.

(iii) If an LC Issuer makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the applicable LC Obligor shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to such LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.05(f), such LC Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each LC Participant of such failure, and each LC Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such LC Issuer, the amount of such LC Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of such payment in same-day funds; provided, however, that no LC Participant shall be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent its Revolving Facility Percentage of such unreimbursed amount for any wrongful payment made by such LC Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence is determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction on the part of such LC Issuer. If the Administrative Agent so notifies any LC Participant required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit prior to 12:00 p.m. (Local Time) on any Business Day, such LC Participant shall make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant LC Issuer such LC Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same-day funds. If and to the extent such LC Participant shall not have so made its Revolving Facility Percentage of the amount of such payment available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant LC Issuer, such LC Participant agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such LC Issuer, forthwith on demand, such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such LC Issuer at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. The failure of any LC Participant to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant LC Issuer its Revolving Facility Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other LC Participant of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such LC Issuer its Revolving Facility Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no LC Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other LC Participant to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such LC Issuer such other LC Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of any such payment.

(iv) Whenever an LC Issuer receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has received for the account of such LC Issuer any payments from the LC Participants pursuant to subsection (iii) above, such LC Issuer shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each LC Participant that has paid its Revolving Facility Percentage thereof, in same-day funds, an amount equal to such LC Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the principal amount thereof and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective LC Participations, as and to the extent so received.

(v) The obligations of the LC Participants to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of each LC Issuer with respect to Letters of Credit shall be irrevocable and not subject to counterclaim, set-off or other defense or any other qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including any of the following circumstances:

(A) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;

(B) the existence of any claim, set-off defense or other right that any LC Obligor may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer, any Lender, or other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the applicable LC Obligor and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit), other than any claim that the applicable LC Obligor may have against any applicable LC Issuer for gross negligence or willful misconduct; as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction of such LC Issuer in making payment under any applicable Letter of Credit;

(C) any draft, certificate or other document presented under the 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;

(D) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; or

(vi) To the extent any LC Issuer is not reimbursed by the Borrower, the LC Participants will reimburse and indemnify such LC Issuer, in proportion to their respective Revolving Facility Percentages, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature that may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by such LC Issuer in performing its respective duties in any way related to or arising out of LC Issuances by it; provided, however, that no LC Participants shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such LC Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(h) Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments. If the Letter of Credit Expiration Date in respect of any tranche of Revolving Commitments occurs prior to the expiry date of any Letter of Credit, then (i) if consented to by the LC Issuer which issued such Letter of Credit, if one or more other tranches of Revolving Commitments in respect of which the Letter of Credit Expiration Date shall not have so occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit for which consent has been obtained shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Revolving Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make Revolving Loans and payments in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.05(f) and (g)) under (and ratably participated in by Lenders pursuant to) the Revolving Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate amount of the unutilized Revolving Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to immediately preceding clause (i), the Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize any such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.05(a).

(i) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Restricted Subsidiary, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable LC Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit if not otherwise timely reimbursed by such Restricted Subsidiary. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Restricted Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Restricted Subsidiaries.

In each such case, the Administrative Agent’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(c) Minimum Borrowing Amount. The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing by the Borrower shall not be less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount.

(a) Several Nature of Funding Obligations. The Commitments of each Lender hereunder and the obligation of each Lender to make Loans, acquire and fund Swing Loan Participations, and LC Participations, as the case may be, are several and not joint obligations. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans or fund any participation hereunder and each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it and fund its participations required to be funded by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill any of its Commitments hereunder. Nothing herein and no subsequent termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 2.14 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder and in existence from time to time or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

(b) Borrowings Pro Rata. Except with respect to the making of Swing Loans by the Swing Line Lender, all Loans hereunder shall be made as follows: all Revolving Loans made, and LC Participations acquired by each Lender, shall be made or acquired, as the case may be, on a pro rata basis based upon each Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the amount of such Revolving Borrowing or Letter of Credit in effect on the date the applicable Revolving Borrowing is to be made or the Letter of Credit is to be issued.

The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Lender, as applicable, written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each proposed Borrowing, or Conversion or Continuation thereof, and LC Issuance, and of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof or participation therein and of the other matters covered by the Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Continuation or Conversion, or LC Request, as the case may be, relating thereto.

(i) Loans Generally. No later than 2:00 p.m. (Local Time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing, each Lender will make available its amount, if any, of each Borrowing requested to be made on such date to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds and the Administrative Agent promptly will make available to the applicable Borrower by depositing to its account at the Payment Office (or such other account as the applicable Borrower shall specify) the aggregate of the amounts so made available in the type of funds received.

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable time in accordance with Section 2.08(a) on the date of Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent its portion of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing, and the Administrative Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion and without any obligation to do so) make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender and the Administrative Agent has made the same available to the applicable Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall promptly pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to (i) if paid by such Lender, the overnight Federal Funds Effective Rate or (ii) if paid by the applicable Borrower, the then applicable rate of interest, calculated in accordance with Section 2.11, for the respective Loans (but without any requirement to pay any amounts in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.04). If the Borrower and such Lender shall each pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(i) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least (A) in the case of any prepayment of a Eurodollar Loan, $500,000 (or, if less, the full amount of such Borrowing), or an integral multiple of $250,000 (B) in the case of any prepayment of a Base Rate Loan, $250,000 (or, if less, the full amount of such Borrowing), or an integral multiple of $100,000 and (C) in the case of any prepayment of a Swing Loan, in the full amount thereof;

(ii) no partial prepayment of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall reduce the aggregate principal amount of such Loans outstanding pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto; and

(c) Mandatory Payments. The Loans shall be subject to mandatory repayment or prepayment (in the case of any partial prepayment conforming to the requirements as to the amounts of partial prepayments set forth in Section 2.15(a) above) and the LC Outstandings shall be subject to cash collateralization requirements in accordance with the following provisions:

(i) Revolving Facility Termination Date. The entire principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans in respect of any Class of Revolving Commitments shall be repaid in full on the Revolving Facility Termination Date applicable to such Class of Revolving Commitments.

(ii) Loans Exceed the Commitments. Except for Protective Advances and Overadvance Loans permitted under Section 2.03, if on any date (after giving effect to any other payments on such date) the Aggregate Credit Facility Exposure exceeds the Maximum Borrowing Amount, then, in the case of each of the foregoing, the Borrower shall, before noon on the second Business Day following such date, prepay the principal amount of Loans and, after Loans have been paid in full, Unpaid Drawings, in an aggregate amount at least equal to such excess.

(iii) LC Outstandings Exceed LC Commitment. If on any date the LC Outstandings exceed the LC Commitment Amount, then the Borrower shall, before noon on the second Business Day following such date, Cash Collateralize any LC Outstandings that have not previously been Cash Collateralized, to the extent of such excess.

(d) Particular Loans to be Prepaid. With respect to each repayment or prepayment of Loans made or required by this Section 2.15, the Borrower shall designate the Types of Loans that are to be repaid or prepaid and the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which such repayment or prepayment is to be made. In the absence of a designation by the applicable Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall make such designation in its sole discretion in order to minimize breakage costs owing under Article III.

(e) Breakage and Other Compensation. Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be accompanied by any amounts payable in respect thereof under Section 3.04 hereof.

(a) Generally. All payments made by the Borrower hereunder under any Note or any other Loan Document shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense.

(b) Application of Payments. Except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement and subject to Section 8.03, (i) all payments and prepayments of any Class of Revolving Loans and Unpaid Drawings with respect to Letters of Credit shall be applied by the Administrative Agent on a pro rata basis based upon each Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage with respect to any applicable Class of the amount of such prepayment and (ii) all payments or prepayments of Swing Loans shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to pay or prepay such Swing Loans.

(c) Payment of Obligations. Except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, all payments under this Agreement with respect to any of the Obligations shall be made to the Administrative Agent on the date when due and shall be made at the Payment Office in immediately available funds and shall be made in U.S. Dollars.

(d) Timing of Payments. Any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time), or, in the case of any payments made in connection with the termination of any Class of Commitments hereunder, 5:00 p.m. (New York City time), shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension.

(e) Distribution to Lenders. Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of payments hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall immediately distribute to each Lender or the applicable LC Issuer, as the case may be, its ratable share, if any, of the amount of principal, interest, and Fees received by it for the account of such Lender. Payments received by the Administrative Agent shall be delivered to the Lenders or the applicable LC Issuer, as the case may be, in Dollars in immediately available funds; provided, however, that if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, Unpaid Drawings, interest and Fees then due hereunder then, except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement and subject to Section 8.03, such funds shall be applied, first, towards payment of interest and Fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and Fees then due to such parties, and second, towards payment of principal and Unpaid Drawings then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and Unpaid Drawings then due to such parties.

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders.”

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 or 11.03 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the LC Issuers’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.17(a)(iv); fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the LC Issuers’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.17(a)(iv); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the LC Issuers or Swing Line Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the LC Issuers or Swing Line Lenders against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiaries thereof pursuant to any Hedge Agreement with such Defaulting Lender or any Affiliate thereof as certified to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to such Defaulting Lender) by an Responsible Officer prior to the date of such

payment; eighth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and ninth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Outstandings in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and LC Outstandings owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Outstandings owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in LC Outstandings and Swing Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility without giving effect to Section 2.17(a)(iii). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.17(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(A) Certain Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(B) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive LC Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Applicable Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.17(a)(iv).

(C) With respect to any Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in LC Outstandings or Swing Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each LC Issuer and Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such LC Issuer’s or Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iii) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in LC Outstandings and Swing Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Facility Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender plus such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the principal amount of Swing Loans outstanding to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(iv) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swing Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (iii) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to them hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swing Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the LC Issuers’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.17(a)(iv).

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Swing Line Lender and LC Issuer reasonably agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent

will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include reasonable arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may reasonably determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility (without giving effect to Section 2.17(a)(iii)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) New Swing Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Loans unless it is reasonably satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Loan and (ii) no LC Issuer shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is reasonably satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

(a) Borrower shall have the right, but not the obligation, after the Closing Date, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (an “Commitment Increase Notice”), to request an increase in the aggregate commitments under the Initial Revolving Facility (which may, at the election of Borrower, include a proportionate increase to the LC Commitment Amount and, with the consent of the Swing Line Lender, the Swing Line Commitment) (each, a “Revolving Commitment Increase”, and the loans thereunder, “Incremental Revolving Loans;” the facility in connection therewith a “Incremental Revolving Facility”) by an aggregate amount of up to $500,000,000; provided that (i) no commitment of any Lender may be increased without the consent of such Lender, (ii) no Event of Default then exists or would result immediately after giving effect thereto (other than in connection with a Limited Condition Acquisition), (iii) the Incremental Revolving Loans (A) shall be guaranteed by the Guarantors and shall rank pari passu in right of (1) priority with respect to the Collateral and (2) payment with respect to the Obligations in respect of the Commitments in effect prior to the Revolving Commitment Increase and (B) shall be on terms and pursuant to the documentation applicable to the existing Commitments or otherwise acceptable to the Administrative Agent (it being understood that terms not substantially identical to the Revolving Facility which are applicable only after the then-existing Revolving Facility Termination Date are acceptable); provided that the Applicable Revolving Loan Margin relating to the Incremental Revolving Loans may exceed the Applicable Revolving Loan Margin relating to the Commitments in effect prior to the Closing Date of the Revolving Commitment Increase so long as, in the event that the Effective Yield for such Incremental Revolving Loans is greater than the Effective Yield applicable to all Revolving Loans immediately prior to the effective date of the Revolving Commitment Increase by more than 0.50% per annum, then the Effective Yield for such Revolving Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Effective Yield for such Revolving Loans is equal to the Effective Yield for such Incremental Revolving Loans minus 0.50% per annum, and (iv) the Revolving Commitment Increase shall be requested in minimum amounts of $15,000,000 or a higher multiple of $1,000,000. The proceeds of each Revolving Commitment Increase may be used for any transaction permitted under this Agreement. Any Revolving Commitment Increase may be denominated in U.S. Dollars. Each Commitment Increase Notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the Revolving Commitment Increase being requested and (ii) the date on which such Revolving Commitment Increase is requested to become effective.

(b) The Borrower may seek a Revolving Commitment Increase from existing Lenders (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in its sole discretion) and additional banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders who will become Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, in connection therewith. The Borrower, each Incremental Revolving Credit Lender and the Administrative Agent and, the Swing Line Lender and each LC Issuer, to the extent their consent would be required under Section 11.12(b) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, to such Additional Lender, shall execute and deliver an Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement having terms and conditions consistent with the terms of this Section 2.18. Each Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement shall specify the terms of the Incremental Revolving Loans to be made thereunder, consistent with the provisions set forth in Section 2.18(a). The Administrative Agent

shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement, this Agreement shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Revolving Commitment Increase, as applicable, or otherwise to effect the provisions of this Section 2.18, notwithstanding any requirements of Section 11.12. Any such deemed amendment may be memorialized in writing by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower and furnished to the other parties hereto.

(c) Upon the effectiveness of any Revolving Commitment Increase entered into pursuant to this Section 2.18, each Lender with a Revolving Commitment of such Class immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Lender providing a portion of the Incremental Revolving Facility (each, an “Incremental Revolving Facility Lender”) in respect of such increase, and each such Incremental Revolving Facility Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swing Loans such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (A) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and (B) participations hereunder in Swing Loans held by each Lender with a Revolving Commitment of such Class (including each such Incremental Revolving Facility Lender) will equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Commitments of such Class of all Lenders represented by such Lender’s Revolving Commitment of such Class. If, on the date of such increase, there are any Revolving Loans of such Class outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall on or prior to the effectiveness of such Incremental Revolving Facility be prepaid from the proceeds of additional Revolving Loans made hereunder (reflecting such increase in Revolving Commitments of such Class), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Loans of such Class being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 3.04. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

(d) Upon the effectiveness of any Revolving Commitments Increase entered into pursuant to this Section 2.18, each Lender with a Revolving Commitment immediately prior to the providing of such Incremental Revolving Facility will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Lender providing a portion of such Incremental Revolving Facility in respect of such provision, and each such Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Revolving Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swing Loans such that, after giving effect to such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (x) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and (y) participations hereunder in Swing Loans held by each Lender with a Revolving Commitment and each Lender with an Incremental Revolving Facility will equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Commitments and aggregate commitments under the Incremental Revolving Facilities of all Lenders represented by such Lender’s Revolving Commitment and such Lender’s commitment under the Incremental Revolving Facility, as applicable. If, on the date of the providing of such Incremental Revolving Facility, there are any Revolving Loans outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall, on or prior to the effectiveness of such Incremental Revolving Facility, be prepaid from the proceeds of the Incremental Revolving Loans made hereunder (reflecting such commitments under the Incremental Revolving Facility), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the Revolving Loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 3.04. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the effectiveness of any Revolving Commitment Increase under this Section 2.18 shall be subject to the satisfaction of the conditions, including the terms of Section 11.31, as agreed between the lenders providing such Revolving Commitment Increase and the Borrower and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officer’s certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.01 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion utilized generally in connection with similar credit facilities).

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.18, the Revolving Commitment Increase may be in the form of a separate “first-in, last out” tranche (the “FILO Tranche”) with a separate borrowing

base against the Borrowing Base Assets and interest rate margins in each case to be agreed upon (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not require any adjustment to the Applicable Margin of other Loans pursuant to clause (a) above) among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders providing the FILO Tranche so long as (1) any loans under the FILO Tranche may not be guaranteed by any Subsidiaries of the Borrower other than the Guarantors; (2) if the FILO Tranche availability exceeds $0, any Revolving Borrowing thereafter requested shall be made under the FILO Tranche until the FILO Tranche availability no longer exceeds $0; (3) the Borrower may not prepay Revolving Credit Loans under the FILO Tranche or terminate or reduce the commitments in respect thereof at any time that other Loans and/or Reimbursement Obligations (unless cash collateralized or otherwise provided for in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) are outstanding; (4) the Required Lenders (calculated as including Lenders under any Revolving Commitment Increase) shall, subject to the terms of the ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement, control exercise of remedies in respect of the Collateral and (5) no changes affecting the priority status of the Loans (other than the FILO Tranche), on the one hand, and the FILO Tranche, on the other hand, may be made without the consent of the Required Lenders (calculated as including Lenders under any Revolving Commitment Increase), other than such changes which affect only the FILO Tranche.

(g) This Section 2.18 shall supersede any provisions in this Agreement to the contrary, including Sections 2.16 or 11.12. For the avoidance of doubt, any of the provisions of this Section 2.18 may be amended with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.

(a) At any time after the Closing Date, the Borrower and any Lender (any such Lender, an “Extending Lender”) may agree, by notice to the Administrative Agent for further distribution to the Lenders (each such notice, an “Extension Notice”), to extend (an “Extension”) the maturity date of such Lender’s Revolving Commitments of a Class (which term, for purposes of this provision, shall also include any Class of Revolving Commitments outstanding hereunder pursuant to a previous amend and extend transaction pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.19, any Class of Incremental Revolving Loans or any commitments under any Incremental Revolving Facility (the “Existing Revolving Commitment Class,” the Revolving Loans thereunder, the “Existing Revolving Loans” and the Revolving Commitments thereunder, the “Existing Revolving Commitments”) to the extended maturity date specified in such Extension Notice and Extension Amendment (each tranche of Revolving Commitments so extended, in each case as well as the original Revolving Commitments not so extended, being deemed a separate Class; any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall constitute a separate Class of Revolving Commitments from the Class of Revolving Commitments from which they were converted and any Class of Revolving Commitments the maturity of which shall have been extended pursuant to this Section 2.19, “Extended Revolving Credit Commitments”); provided, that (i) the Borrower shall have offered to all Lenders under the applicable Credit Facility that is the subject of the proposed Extension the opportunity to participate in such Extension on a pro rata basis and on the same terms and conditions to each such Lender (each such offer, an “Extension Offer”), (ii) except as to interest rates, rate floors, fees, original issue discounts, premiums, final maturity date (subject to the following clause (v), which shall be determined by the Borrower and set forth in the applicable Extension Offer), the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall have the same terms as the Class or Class of Revolving Commitments that was the subject of the Extension Notice; provided that the Extension Offer and/or Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply to any period after the Latest Maturity Date then in effect, (iii) if the aggregate Revolving Commitments in respect of which Lenders shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Revolving Commitments offered to be extended by the Borrower pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Revolving Commitments of such Lenders shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Lenders have accepted such Extension Offer, (iv) all documentation in respect of such Extension Offer (including any Extension Notice any amendment to this Agreement implementing the terms of such Extension Offer (each such amendment, an “Extension Amendment”)) shall be consistent with the foregoing, (v) the interest rates, rate floors, fees, original issue discounts, premiums, final maturity date and optional and mandatory prepayments (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (ii) of this Section 2.19) applicable to any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be determined by the Borrower and the lenders providing such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable and (vi) all Borrowings under the applicable Revolving Commitments (i.e., the Existing Revolving Commitment Class and the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of the applicable Extension Series) and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for (I) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings) and (II) repayments required upon the

Maturity Date of the non-extending Revolving Commitments). In connection with any such Extension, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, with the approval of the Extending Lenders of the applicable Extension Series, may effect such amendments (including any Extension Amendment) to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to implement the terms of any such Extension Offer, including any amendments necessary to establish new Classes, tranches or sub-tranches in respect of the Revolving Commitments so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such new tranches or sub-tranches (including to preserve the pro rata treatment of the extended and non-extended tranches and to provide for the reallocation of LC Outstandings, Swing Loans and Swing Loan Participations upon the expiration or termination of the commitments under any tranche or sub-tranche), in each case on terms not inconsistent with this Section 2.19. Any Extension of the Revolving Commitments shall require the consent of any LC Issuer and any Swing Line Lender to the extent that such Extension provides for issuance of Letters of Credit by such LC Issuer or the Borrowing of Swing Loans from such Swing Lender at any time during such extended period. Notwithstanding the conversion of any Existing Revolving Commitment Class into an Extended Revolving Credit Commitment, such Extended Revolving Credit Commitment shall be treated identically to the Existing Revolving Commitment Class of the applicable Extension Series for purposes of the obligations of a Revolving Lender in respect of Swing Loans under Section 2.04(a) and Letters of Credit under Section 2.05, except that the applicable Extension Amendment may provide that the Swing Line Maturity Date and/or the last day for issuing Letters of Credit may be extended and the related obligations to make Swing Loans and issue Letters of Credit may be continued (pursuant to mechanics to be specified in the applicable Extension Amendment) so long as the applicable Swing Line Lender and/or the applicable LC Issuer, as applicable, have consented to such extensions (it being understood that no consent of any other Lender shall be required in connection with any such extension).

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (A) on any date on which any Existing Revolving Commitment Class is converted to extend the related scheduled maturity date(s) in accordance with paragraph (a) above (an “Extension Date”), the Existing Revolving Commitments of each Extending Lender under the applicable Extension Series, the aggregate principal amount of such Existing Revolving Commitment Class shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments so converted by such Lender on such date, and the aggregate principal amount of such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be established as a separate Class of Revolving Commitments from the Existing Revolving Commitment Class of the applicable Extension Series and from any other Existing Revolving Commitment Classes (together with any other Extended Revolving Credit Commitments so established on such date) and (B) if, on any Extension Date, any Existing Revolving Loans of any Extending Lender are outstanding under the Existing Revolving Commitment Class of the applicable Extension Series, such Existing Revolving Loans (and any related participations) shall be deemed to be allocated as Extended Revolving Credit Loans (and related participations) in the same proportion as such Extending Lender’s commitment under the Existing Revolving Commitment Class of the applicable Extension Series to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments.

(c) With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.19, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of this Agreement, including Section 2.15 and (ii) any Extension Offer is required to be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000. The Borrower may at its election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Extension that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Extension Offer in the Borrower’s sole discretion and may be waived by the Borrower) of Revolving Commitments of any or all applicable tranches accept the applicable Extension Offer.

(d) In connection with any Extension, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent at least ten (10) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably, to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.19.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Extension Amendment shall become effective under this Section 2.19 unless the Administrative Agent shall have received (i) a customary legal opinion covering the enforceability of the Extension Amendment and other customary matters, (ii) customary reaffirmations and/or such amendments to the Collateral Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in order to ensure

that the applicable Extended Revolving Credit Commitments are provided with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents and (iii) board resolutions and other closing certificates and documentation to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent.

(f) In the event that the Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion that the allocation of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of a given Extension Series, in each case to a given Lender was incorrectly determined as a result of manifest administrative error, then the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such affected Lender may (and hereby are authorized to), in their sole discretion and without the consent of any other Lender, enter into an amendment to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (each, a “Corrective Extension Amendment”) within 15 days following the effective date of the applicable Extension Amendment, as the case may be, which Corrective Extension Amendment shall (i) provide for the conversion and extension of Existing Revolving Commitments (and related Revolving Facility Exposure), as the case may be, in such amount as is required to cause such Lender to hold Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (and related Revolving Facility Exposure) of the applicable Extension Series into which such other Revolving Commitments were initially converted, as the case may be, in the amount such Lender would have held had such administrative error not occurred and had such Lender received the minimum allocation of the applicable Loans or Commitments to which it was entitled under the terms of such Extension Amendment, in the absence of such error, (ii) be subject to the satisfaction of such conditions, including the terms of Section 11.31, as the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such Lender may agree (including conditions of the type required to be satisfied for the effectiveness of an Extension Amendment described in Section 2.19(a)), and (iii) effect such other amendments of the type (with appropriate reference and nomenclature changes) described in the penultimate sentence of Section 2.19(a).

(g) This Section 2.19 shall supersede any provisions in this Agreement to the contrary, including Sections 2.16 or 11.12. For the avoidance of doubt, any of the provisions of this Section 2.19 may be amended with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.

(a) Each Loan Party shall enter into a control agreement (each, a “Blocked Account Agreement”) within 90 days after the Closing Date (or such later date approved by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion), in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, with the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent and any bank with which such Loan Party maintains a primary domestic concentration DDA (other than an Excluded Account) (collectively, the “Blocked Accounts”).

(b) The Borrower agrees that it will cause all proceeds of the ABL Collateral (other than the amounts and accounts identified in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) of Section 2.21(d) below or proceeds in any Excluded Accounts) to be deposited into a Blocked Account, which deposits may be made through a remote scanning process for purposes of depositing payment items into the Blocked Accounts from time to time. The Borrower agrees that it will promptly cause all such payment items to be scanned and/or deposited into Blocked Accounts.

(c) Each Blocked Account Agreement shall require, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Liquidity Event (and delivery of notice thereof from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower and the other parties to such instrument or agreement), the ACH or wire transfer no less frequently than once per Business Day (unless the Termination Date shall have actually occurred), of all collected and available funds, including any collected and available funds in each Blocked Account (net of such minimum balance, not to exceed $50,000 in any one Blocked Account or $250,000 in the aggregate, as may be required to be maintained in the subject Blocked Account by the bank at which such Blocked Account is maintained), to one or more accounts maintained by the Administrative Agent at SunTrust Bank (the “Payment Accounts”) or such other account as directed by the Administrative Agent; provided that once such Liquidity Event shall no longer be continuing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly instruct the depository institutions at which such Blocked Accounts are held to allow the Loan Parties to resume direct and sole control over such Blocked Accounts. Subject to the terms of the ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement, all amounts received in a Payment Account or such other account shall be applied (and allocated) by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.03.

(d) If, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Liquidity Event, any cash or Permitted Investments owned by any Loan Party (other than (i) an amount not to exceed $5,000,000 in the aggregate that is on deposit in a segregated DDA which the Borrower designates in writing to the Administrative Agent as being the “designated account,” (each such account, a “Designated Account” and collectively, the “Designated Accounts”), (ii) de minimis cash or Permitted Investments from time to time inadvertently misapplied by any Loan Party, (iii) deposit accounts the balance of which consists exclusively of (x) withheld income taxes and federal, state or local employment taxes, (y) amounts required to be paid over to an employee benefit plan; (iv) all segregated deposit accounts constituting (and the balance of which consists solely of funds set aside for the purpose of managing) disbursement, tax accounts, payroll accounts, and trust accounts, (v) local store accounts that are swept at least weekly to Blocked Accounts and (vi) other accounts that are not swept at least weekly to a Blocked Account in which the aggregate amount on deposit in all such other accounts at any time may not exceed $5,000,000 (such accounts referred to in clauses (i) through (vi) above, collectively, the “Excluded Accounts”)) are held in any account, otherwise than in a Blocked Account subject to a Blocked Account Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to require the applicable Loan Party to close such account and have all funds therein transferred to a Blocked Account, and to cause all future deposits to be made to a Blocked Account.

(e) The Loan Parties may close DDAs or Blocked Accounts and/or open new DDAs or Blocked Accounts without the Administrative Agent’s consent, subject to the applicable Loan Party’s prompt execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Blocked Account Control Agreement with respect to any such DDA (other than any Excluded Account) established or acquired after the Closing Date consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.21 and so long as all deposits pursuant to Section 2.21(b) are at all times only made into accounts subject to a valid Blocked Account Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall execute any requested notice of termination to the Bank at which such closed Blocked Account has been maintained; provided that the Loan Parties provide to the Administrative Agent a Blocked Account Agreement for a replacement Blocked Account consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.21. For the avoidance of doubt, the Loan Parties may open or close Excluded Accounts at any time, without requirement of delivery of a Blocked Account Agreement.

(f) So long as no Liquidity Event as to which the Administrative Agent has notified the Borrower has occurred and is continuing, the Loan Parties may direct, and shall have sole control over, the manner of disposition of funds in the Blocked Accounts. For the avoidance of doubt, the Loan Parties may direct, and shall have sole control over, the manner of disposition of funds in any Excluded Account or Designated Account.

(g) Any amounts (x) received in the Payment Accounts (including all interest and other earnings with respect thereto, if any) at any time after the Termination Date or (y) that continue to be swept to the Payment Accounts after all Liquidity Events have been cured, if any, shall (subject, in the case of clause (x), to the provisions of the ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement), be remitted to the operating account of the Borrower as specified by the Borrower.

Section 2.22 Reserves; Change in Reserves; Decisions by Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time establish and increase or decrease Reserves; provided that, as a condition to the establishment of any new category of Reserves, or any increase in Reserves resulting from a change in the manner of determination thereof, a Required Reserve Notice shall have been given to the Borrower not later than five (5) Business Days prior to such establishment or increase; provided, further, that circumstances, conditions, events or contingencies arising prior to the Closing Date of which the Administrative Agent had knowledge prior to the Closing Date shall not be the basis for any such establishment or modification after the Closing Date. The amount of any Reserve established by the Administrative Agent shall have a reasonable relationship to the event, condition or other matter that is the basis for the Reserve. Upon delivery of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall be available to discuss the proposed Reserve or increase, and the Borrower may take such action as may be required so that the event, condition or matter that is the basis for such Reserve or increase no longer exists. In no event shall such notice and opportunity limit the right of the Administrative Agent to establish or change such Reserve. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Reserves shall not duplicate eligibility criteria contained in the definition of “Eligible Credit Card Receivable”, “Eligible In-Transit Inventory”, “Eligible Inventory”, “Eligible Letter of Credit Inventory”, “Eligible Receivable”, “Eligible Billings” or “Eligible Unbilled Receivables” and vice versa, or reserves or criteria deducted in computing the cost or market value or Value of any Eligible Receivable, any Eligible Inventory, any Eligible Credit Card Receivable, Eligible In-Transit Inventory, Eligible Letter of Credit Inventory, Eligible Billings, Eligible Unbilled Receivables or the Net Orderly Liquidation Value of any Eligible Inventory and vice versa.

(A) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any LC Issuer (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate); or

(B) impose on any Lender or any LC Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or LC Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or issue any Letter of Credit) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or LC Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, from time to time upon request of such Lender or LC Issuer, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or LC Issuer such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or LC Issuer for such increased costs actually incurred or reduction actually suffered.

(b) If any Lender or LC Issuer determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans held by, such Lender or the Letters of Credit issued by such LC Issuer to a level below that which such Lender or LC Issuer or such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then, from time to time upon request of such Lender or LC Issuer, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or LC Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or LC Issuer or such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction actually suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or an LC Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or LC Issuer or its holding company in reasonable detail, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 3.01 delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or LC Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or LC Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.01 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or LC Issuer pursuant to this Section 3.01 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or LC Issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Requirements of Law. If the applicable withholding agent shall be required by applicable Requirements of Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable withholding agent) to deduct any Taxes from such payments, then the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions and shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, and if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, then the amount payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all such required deductions have been made (including such deductions applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 3.02), each Lender (or, in the case of a payment made to the Administrative Agent for its own account, the Administrative Agent) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made.

(b) Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Requirements of Law.

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender within 30 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document and any Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.02) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of any Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Each Lender shall, at such times as are reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with any properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by any Requirement of Law, or reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent, certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, any withholding Tax with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under the Loan Documents. Each such Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders any such documentation expired, obsolete or inaccurate in any respect (including any specific documentation required below in this Section 3.02(e)), deliver promptly to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the applicable withholding agent) or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so. Unless the applicable withholding agent has received forms or other documents satisfactory to it indicating that payments under any Loan Document to or for a Lender are not subject to withholding tax or are subject to Tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or other applicable withholding agent shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate.

(i) Each Lender that is a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the 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 copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding.

(ii) Each Lender that is not a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the 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 reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:

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

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

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

(D) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Lender is a partnership or a participating Lender), two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Foreign Lender, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, United States Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9, Form W-8IMY (or other successor forms) or any other required information from each beneficial owner that would be required under this Section 3.02 if such beneficial owner were a Lender, as applicable (provided that, if the Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more direct or indirect partners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the United States Tax Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Lender on behalf of such direct or indirect partner(s)), or

(E) two properly completed and duly signed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law to permit the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(iii) If a payment made to any Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with 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 clause (iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause (e), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(f) If the Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any Taxes for which indemnification has been demanded hereunder, the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender, as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower in a reasonable challenge of such Taxes if so requested by the Borrower, provided that (a) the Administrative Agent or such Lender determines in its reasonable discretion that it would not be subject to any unreimbursed third-party cost or expense or otherwise be prejudiced by cooperating in such challenge, (b) the Borrower pays all related expenses of the Administrative Agent

or such Lender, as applicable and (c) the Borrower indemnifies the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, for any liabilities or other costs incurred by such party in connection with such challenge. If the Administrative Agent or a Lender receives a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.02, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 3.02 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees promptly to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. The Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall, at the Borrower’s request, provide the Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment or other evidence of the requirement to repay such refund received from the relevant taxing authority (provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender may delete any information therein that the Administrative Agent or such Lender deems confidential). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 3.02(f) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to Taxes which it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other person).

(g) The agreements in this Section 3.02 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(h) For purposes of this Section 3.02, the term “Lender” shall include any LC Issuer and the Swing Line Lender and the term “applicable Requirements of Law” includes FATCA.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.01, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.02 or any event gives rise to the operation of Section 3.05, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or its participation in any Letter of Credit affected by such event, or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment and delegation (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.02 or mitigate the applicability of Section 3.05, as the case may be, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material and would not be inconsistent with the internal policies of, or otherwise be disadvantageous in any material economic, legal or regulatory respect to, such Lender.

(b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.01 or gives notice under Section 3.05, (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.02 or (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 11.06), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment and delegation); provided that (A) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, each LC Issuer and each Swing Line Lender to the extent such consent would be required under Section 11.06 for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, which consents, in each case, shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and unreimbursed participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans, accrued but unpaid interest thereon, accrued but unpaid fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (C) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid (unless waived) to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 11.06 and (D) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.01, or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.02 or a notice given under Section 3.05, such

assignment will result in a material reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender under paragraph (a) above), the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment Agreement executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto.

Section 3.04 Breakage Compensation. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.15 and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.03 or Section 11.12, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall, after receipt of a written request by any Lender affected by any such event (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount), compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense (excluding loss of profit) actually incurred by it as a result of such event. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.04, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Loan made by it at the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the applicable interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Loan was in fact so funded. A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 3.04 and the reasons therefor delivered to the Borrower shall be prima facie evidence of such amounts. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt of such demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3.04 will not apply to losses, costs or expenses resulting from Taxes, as to which Section 3.02 shall govern. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.04 if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender to demand such compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements.

Section 3.05 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Loans denominated in dollars or to convert Base Rate Loans denominated in dollars to Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on such Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrower shall, upon three Business Days’ notice from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Loans denominated in dollars of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans, and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate. Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing promptly upon becoming aware that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

(b) If, after the Closing Date, any material assets (other than Excluded Assets), including any owned (but not leased or ground-leased) Material Real Property or improvements thereto or any interest therein, are acquired by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or are held by any Subsidiary on or after the time it becomes a Loan Party pursuant to Section 6.11 (other than assets constituting Collateral under a Security Document that become subject to the Lien created by such Security Document upon acquisition thereof or constituting Excluded Assets), the Borrower will notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, if requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will cause such assets to be subjected to a Lien securing the Obligations and will take and cause the other Loan Parties to take, such actions as shall be necessary and reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to grant and perfect such Liens, including actions described in paragraph (a) of this Section and as required pursuant to the “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement,” all at the expense of the Loan Parties and subject to the last paragraph of the definition of the term “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement.” In the event any Material Real Property is mortgaged pursuant to this Section 6.12(b), the Borrower or such other Loan Party, as applicable, shall be required to comply with the “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement” and paragraph (a) of this Section 6.12 within 90 days following the acquisition of such Material Real Property or such longer time period as agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion.

The designation of any Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after the Closing Date shall constitute an Investment by the Borrower therein at the date of designation in an amount equal to the fair market value of the Borrower’s or its Subsidiary’s (as applicable) investment therein. The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute (i) the incurrence at the time of designation of any Investment, Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time and (ii) a return on any Investment by the Borrower in Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the preceding sentence in an amount equal to the fair market value at the date of such designation of the Borrower’s or its Subsidiary’s (as applicable) Investment in such Subsidiary.

(a) Each Lender and LC Issuer hereby irrevocably designates and appoints SunTrust Bank to act as specified herein and in the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes SunTrust Bank as the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent for such Lender, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Lender hereby expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent to, without the consent of any Lender, to enter into the ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement to give effect to the provisions of this Agreement, which ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement shall be binding on the Lender. The Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent agrees or agree to act as such upon the express conditions contained in this Article IX. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents, nor any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or LC Issuer, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall each act solely as agent of the Lenders and do not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Loan Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

(b) Each Lender and the LC Issuer hereby further irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent on behalf of and for the benefit of the Lenders and the LC Issuer, to be the agent for and representative of the Lenders and the LC Issuer with respect to the Guaranty, the Security Documents, the Collateral and any other Loan Document. Subject to Section 11.12, without further written consent or authorization from Lenders or the LC Issuer, the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent may execute any documents or instruments necessary to (i) release any Lien or Guaranty encumbering or relating to any item of Collateral or Guarantor that is the subject of a sale or other disposition (or, in the case of any Guarantor, to the extent such Guarantor is no longer required to be a Guarantor pursuant to the terms hereof) to a Person that is not a Loan Party permitted hereby or to which the Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 11.12) have otherwise consented, (ii) release any Guarantor from the Guaranty with respect to which the Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 11.12) have otherwise consented, (iii) to release any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent under any Security Document (x) upon the Termination Date, or (y) that constitutes Excluded Asset, (iv) to subordinate any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent under any Security Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Sections 7.02(d), (e), (h), (k), (l), (m), (n), (r), (s), (x), (z) and (cc) and clauses (c), (e) and (j) of the definition of “Permitted Encumbrances,” (v) enter into any amendment to any Loan Document to correct any errors or omissions pursuant to Section 11.12(g), or (vi) enter into the ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement and any Customary Intercreditor Agreement, Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreements and Extension Amendments, in each case, in accordance with the applicable terms hereof. Upon request by the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s and/or the Collateral Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its

obligations under this Agreement and other Loan Documents pursuant to this Section 9.01(b). In each case as specified in this Section 9.01(b), the Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, this Section 9.01(b) and Section 11.26. The Borrower agrees to deliver to the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, upon its request and prior to any release or subordination of the Liens of the Administrative Agent provided for in this Section 9.01, a certificate of an Responsible Officer confirming that any such release and/or subordination of the Liens in the Collateral is permitted pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, upon which certificate the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely without further inquiry.

(c) Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender 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, except as otherwise set forth in the Loan Documents with respect to rights of set off, all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Creditors (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required 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 the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent at such sale.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.11, if the Administrative Agent shall become a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower may appoint, subject to the consent of the Required Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent. Such successor Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights, duties and powers of the Administrative Agent.

(e) Except as specifically provided in a Loan Document (i) nothing in the Loan Documents makes the Collateral Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any other party or any other person, and (ii) the Collateral Agent need not hold in trust any moneys paid to it for any other party or be liable to account for interest on those moneys.

(f) The Collateral Agent may at any time appoint (and subsequently remove) any person to act as a separate security trustee or as a co-trustee jointly with it (i) if it is necessary in performing its duties and if the Collateral Agent considers that appointment to be in the interest of the Secured Creditors, or (ii) for the purposes of complying with or confirming to any legal requirements, restrictions or conditions which the Collateral Agent deems to be relevant, or (iii) for the purposes of obtaining or enforcing any judgment or decree in any jurisdiction, and the Collateral Agent will give notice to the other parties of any such appointment.

Section 9.02 Delegation of Duties. Each of the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact, and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents, sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care except to the extent otherwise required by Section 9.03. All of the rights, benefits and privileges (including the exculpatory and indemnification provisions) of Section 9.03 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities as sub-agent as if such sub-agent and Affiliates were named herein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to each sub-agent appointed by the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, (i) such sub-agent shall be a third-party beneficiary under this Agreement with respect to all such rights, benefits and

privileges (including exculpatory and rights to indemnification) and shall have all of the rights, benefits and privileges of a third-party beneficiary, including an independent right of action to enforce such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) directly, without the consent or joinder of any other Person, against any or all of the Loan Parties and the Lenders, (ii) such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) shall not be modified or amended without the consent of such sub-agent, and (iii) such sub-agent shall only have obligations to the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent and not to any Loan Party, any Lender or any other Person and no Loan Party, Lender or any other Person shall have the rights, directly or indirectly, as a third-party beneficiary or otherwise, against such sub-agent.

Section 9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent nor any of their respective Related Parties shall be (a) liable to any of the Lenders for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except for its or such Related Parties’ own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Loan Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party or any of its officers to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible to any Lender for the effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any Loan Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statement or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports, certificates or any other documents in connection herewith or therewith furnished or made by the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent to the Lenders or by or on behalf of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender or be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or of the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default or as to the value or sufficiency of any Collateral or validity, perfection or priority of any Lien thereon.

Section 9.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent. Each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, e-mail or other electronic transmission, facsimile transmission, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent. The Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as applicable, as to any matter that, pursuant to Section 11.12, can only be effectuated with the consent of all Required Lenders, or all applicable Lenders, as the case may be), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.

Section 9.05 Notice of Default. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent has received notice from the Required Lenders or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” If the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent receives or receive such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower, if applicable. The Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent and/or

the Collateral Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall reasonably deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

Section 9.06 Non-Reliance. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent nor any of their respective Related Parties has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Loan Parties or their respective Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, assets, property, financial and other conditions, prospects or creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any of their respective Related Parties.

Section 9.07 No Reliance on Administrative Agent’s Customer Identification Program. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to any Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with the Loan Parties or their respective Subsidiaries, any of their respective Affiliates or agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder: (a) any identity verification procedures, (b) any record keeping, (c) any comparisons with government lists, (d) any customer notices or (e) any other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other laws.

Section 9.08 Patriot Act. Each Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender that is not organized under the laws of the United States or a state thereof (and is not excepted from the certification requirement contained in Section 313 of the Patriot Act and the applicable regulations because it is both (a) an affiliate of a depository institution or foreign bank that maintains a physical presence in the United States or foreign country, and (b) subject to supervision by a banking authority regulating such affiliated depository institution or foreign bank) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the certification, or, if applicable, recertification, certifying that such Lender is not a “shell” and certifying to other matters as required by Section 313 of the Patriot Act and the applicable regulations: (i) within 10 days after the Closing Date, and (ii) at such other times as are required under the Patriot Act.

Section 9.09 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and their respective Related Parties, ratably according to their pro rata share of the Aggregate Revolving Facility Exposure, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, reasonable expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including at any time following the payment of the Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Related Parties in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Related Parties under or in connection with any of the foregoing, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing is not paid by the Borrower; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any of their respective Related Parties for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent resulting solely from the Administrative Agent’s, the Collateral Agent’s or such Related Parties’ gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. If any indemnity furnished to

the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any such Related Parties for any purpose shall, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, respectively, be insufficient or become impaired, the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished. The agreements in this Section 9.09 shall survive the payment of all Obligations.

Section 9.10 The Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent in Each Individual Capacity. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and their respective Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Loan Parties, their respective Subsidiaries and their Affiliates as though not acting as Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent hereunder. With respect to the Loans made by it and all Obligations owing to it, the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent in its individual capacity.

Section 9.11 Successor Administrative Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the Borrower’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless a Specified Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then such resignation shall nevertheless be effective and the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be an Approved Bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such Approved Bank (the date upon which the retiring Administrative Agent is replaced, the “Resignation Effective Date”); provided, that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice.

If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders and the Borrower may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, with the consent of the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date. With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except (i) that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and (ii) with respect to any outstanding payment obligations) and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article IX and Section 9.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

Section 9.12 Other Agents. Any Lender identified herein as a Co-Agent, Co-Syndication Agent, Co-Documentation Agent, Managing Agent, Manager, Joint Lead Arranger or any other corresponding title, other than “Administrative Agent,” or “Collateral Agent” shall have no right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or any other Loan Document except those applicable to all Lenders as such. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any Lender so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking any action hereunder.

Section 9.13 Agency for Perfection. The Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby appoints the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each other Lender as agent and bailee for the purpose of perfecting the security interests in and liens upon the Collateral in assets that can be perfected only by possession or control (or where the security interest of a secured creditor with possession or control has priority over the security interest of another secured creditor) and the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender hereby acknowledges that it holds possession of or otherwise controls any such Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Creditors as secured creditor. Should any Lender obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s or the Collateral Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s and/or Collateral Agent’s instructions. Each Loan Party by its execution and delivery of this Agreement hereby consents to the foregoing.

Section 9.14 Proof of Claim. The Lenders and the Borrower hereby agree that after the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.01(h) or Section 8.01(i), in case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower or any of the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower or any of the Guarantors) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and any other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereunder) allowed in such judicial proceeding; (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and (c) any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent and other agents hereunder. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lenders or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. Further, nothing contained in this Section 9.14 shall affect or preclude the ability of any Lender to (i) file and prove such a claim in the event that the Administrative Agent has not acted within ten (10) days prior to any applicable bar date and (ii) require an amendment of the proof of claim to accurately reflect such Lender’s outstanding Obligations.

(a) Delivery of Communications. Each Loan Party hereby agrees, unless directed otherwise by the Administrative Agent or unless the electronic mail address referred to below has not been provided by the Administrative Agent to such Loan Party that it will, or will cause its Subsidiaries to, provide to the Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent or to the Lenders pursuant to the Loan Documents, including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (i) is or relates to a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Continuation or Conversion, (ii) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, (iii) provides notice of any Default under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (iv) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the effectiveness

In addition, each Loan Party agrees, and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries, to continue to provide the Communications to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, as the case may be, in the manner specified in the Loan Documents but only to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent.

(b) No Warranties as to Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE INDEMNITEES DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING 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 INDEMNITEES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE INDEMNITEES HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER OR NOT BASED ON STRICT LIABILITY AND INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY INDEMNITEES IS FOUND IN A FINAL, NON-APPEALABLE ORDER BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM SUCH INDEMNITEE’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

(c) Delivery Via Platform. The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its electronic mail address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that receipt of notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s electronic mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and that the foregoing notice may be sent to such electronic mail address.

(d) No Prejudice to Notice Rights. Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

Section 9.16 Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable law (as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including 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), such Lender shall, within 10 days after written demand therefor, indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.02 and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the Borrower to do so) fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Taxes or otherwise, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses and any other expenses, whether or not such Tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.16. The agreements in this Section 9.16 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, the termination of this Agreement, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For purposes of this Section 9.16, the term “Lender” includes any LC Issuer and the Swingline Lender.

Section 9.17 Resignation/Replacement of LC Issuer and Swing Line Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender may, upon 60 days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as an LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender, respectively; provided that on or prior to the expiration of such 60-day period with respect to such resignation, the relevant LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender shall have identified a successor LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender reasonably acceptable to the Borrower willing to accept its appointment as successor LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as applicable, and such LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as applicable shall have accepted such appointment. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of any such resignation of an LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders willing to accept such appointment a successor LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of the relevant LC Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, except as expressly provided above. If an LC Issuer resigns as an LC Issuer, it shall retain all the rights and obligations of an LC Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an LC Issuer and all LC Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Loans or fund risk participations in Unpaid Drawings). If the Swing Line Lender resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Loans.

Section 9.18 Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guaranty. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agree that (i) no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Administrative Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of the Lenders (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required 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 the Administrative Agent at such sale or other disposition.

Section 9.19 Cash Management Banks and Designated Hedge Creditors. No Cash Management Bank or Designated Hedge Creditor that obtains the benefits of Section 8.02, the Security Documents or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any other Loan 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 Loan 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 Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 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 in favor of Cash Management Banks and Designated Hedge Creditor unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice (except in the case of such Obligations where the Administrative Agent is the Cash Management Bank or Designated Hedge Creditor) of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Designated Hedge Creditor, as the case may be. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that as of the Closing Date, Wells Fargo has been designated as a Cash Management Bank hereunder and subject to the terms hereof.

Section 11.01 Payment of Expenses, Etc. The Borrower shall pay, if the Closing Date occurs and the Transactions have been consummated, (i) all reasonable and documented and invoiced out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates (without duplication) (limited, in the case of (x) legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable, documented and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP and to the extent reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to be necessary, one firm of local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) and, in the case of an actual conflict of interest where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict notifies the Borrower of the existence of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, one additional conflicts counsel for the affected Indemnitees similarly situated and (y) the fees and expenses of any other advisor or consultant, to the reasonable, documented and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of such advisor or consultant, but solely to the extent that such consultant or advisor has been retained with the Borrower’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)), in each case, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, and the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof and (ii) all reasonable and documented and invoiced out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Lenders (without duplication) (limited, in the case of (x) legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable, documented and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP and to the extent reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to be necessary, one local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction and, in the case of an actual conflict of interest where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict notifies the Borrower of the existence of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, one additional conflicts counsel for the affected Indemnitees similarly situated and (y) the fees and expenses of any other advisor or consultant, to the reasonable, documented and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of such advisor or consultant, but solely to the extent that such consultant or advisor has been retained with the Borrower’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), in connection with the enforcement or protection of any rights or remedies (A) in connection with the Loan Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws), including its rights under this Section 11.01 or (B) in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loan.

Section 11.02 Indemnification. Without duplication of the expense reimbursement obligations pursuant to Section 11.01, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Co-Syndication Agents, the Co-Documentation Agents and each Related Party (other than Excluded Affiliates to the extent acting in their capacities as such) of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented and invoiced out-of-pocket fees and expenses (limited, in the case of (x) legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable, documented and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for all Indemnitees and to the extent reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to be necessary, one local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction and, in the case of an actual conflict of interest where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict notifies the Borrower of the existence of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, one additional conflicts counsel for the affected Indemnitees similarly situated and (y) the fees and expenses of any other advisor or consultant, to the reasonable, documented and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of such advisor or consultant, but solely to the extent that such consultant or advisor has been retained with the Borrower’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any Subsidiary to the extent arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated thereby, the syndication of the

credit facilities provided for herein, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release or threat of Release of Hazardous Materials on, at, to or from any Mortgaged Property or any other property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any other Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any Subsidiary or their Affiliates and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or related expenses (x) resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or its Related Parties (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment), (y) resulted from a material breach of the Loan Documents by such Indemnitee or its Related Parties (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment) or (z) arise from disputes between or among Indemnitees (other than disputes involving claims against the Administrative Agent, any Co-Syndication Agent, any Co-Documentation Agent or any Joint Lead Arranger, in each case, in their respective capacities) that do not involve an act or omission by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary.

The Borrower shall not be liable for any settlement of any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding effected without its consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but if settled with the Borrower’s written consent in any such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding, the Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses by reason of such settlement in accordance with the preceding paragraph. The Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of the applicable Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnitee unless (a) such settlement includes a full and unconditional release of such Indemnitee in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding and (b) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnitee.

In case any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding is instituted involving any Indemnitee for which indemnification is to be sought hereunder by such Indemnitee, then such Indemnitee will promptly notify the Borrower of the commencement of any proceeding; provided, however, that the failure to do so will not relieve the Borrower from any liability that it may have to such Indemnitee hereunder, except to the extent that the Borrower is materially prejudiced by such failure.

Section 11.03 Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender and each LC Issuer is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to any Loan Party or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender or such LC Issuer (including by branches, agencies and Affiliates of such Lender or LC Issuer wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against and on account of the Obligations and liabilities of any Loan Party to such Lender or LC Issuer under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents, including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or LC Issuer shall have made any demand hereunder and although said Obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender and LC Issuer agrees to promptly notify the Borrower after any such set off and application; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amount set off from any Loan Party (other than the Borrower) shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligation of such Loan Party (other than the Borrower).

(a) Equalization. Except as otherwise permitted hereunder, if at any time any Lender receives any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents, or

otherwise, but excluding any amount received in respect of an assignment pursuant to Section 11.06) that is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans (other than Swing Loans), LC Participations, Swing Loan Participations or Fees (other than Fees that are intended to be paid solely to the Administrative Agent or an LC Issuer and amounts payable to a Lender under Article III), of a sum that with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all of the Lenders in such amount.

(b) Recovery of Amounts. If any amount paid to any Lender pursuant to subsection (a) above is recovered in whole or in part from such Lender, such original purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price restored ratably to the extent of the recovery.

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

(a) Generally. Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and except as provided in subsection (c) below), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail or sent by telecopier as follows:

if to the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, the Swing Line Lender and LC Issuer, to it at the Notice Office; and

(ii) if to a Lender, to it at its address (or telecopier number) set forth next to its name on the signature pages hereto or, in the case of any Lender that becomes a party to this Agreement by way of assignment under Section 11.06 of this Agreement, to it at the address set forth in the Assignment Agreement to which it is a party.

(b) Receipt of Notices. Notices and communications sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices sent by telecopier shall be deemed to have been given when sent and receipt has been confirmed by telephone. Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in subsection (c) below shall be effective as provided in said subsection (c).

(c) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Administrative Agent, an LC Issuer or any Lender hereunder and required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.01 may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet web sites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and the Borrower may, in their discretion, agree in a separate writing to accept notices and other communications to them hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement); provided, further, that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet web site shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the web site address therefor.

(d) Change of Address, etc. Any party hereto may change its address or telecopier number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to each of the other parties hereto in accordance with Section 11.05(a).

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns (including any Affiliate of the LC Issuer that issues any Letter of Credit); provided, however, that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of all the Lenders except to the extent expressly permitted hereunder (including in connection with a transaction permitted by Section 7.03; provided, further, that any assignment or participation by a Lender of any of its rights and obligations hereunder shall be effected in accordance with this Section 11.06.

(b) Participations. Each Lender may at any time grant participations in any of its rights hereunder or under any of the Notes to an Eligible Assignee (such Eligible Assignee, a “Participant”); provided that in the case of any such participation,

(i) the Participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (the Participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the Participant relating thereto),

(ii) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including its Commitments hereunder) shall remain unchanged,

(iii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations,

(iv) such Lender shall remain the holder of the Obligations owing to it and of any Note issued to it for all purposes of this Agreement, and

(v) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with the selling Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation, except that the Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Article III to the extent that such Lender would be entitled to such benefits if the participation had not been entered into or sold;

provided, further, that no Lender shall transfer, grant or sell any participation under which the Participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Loan Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (A) extend the final scheduled maturity of the date of any scheduled repayment of any of the Loans 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 the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase such Participant’s participating interest in any Commitment over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute a change in the terms of any such Commitment) or (B) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or all or substantially all of the value of the Guaranty, except in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents; provided still further that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits (and subject to the limitations) of Sections 3.01 and 3.02 with respect to its participation as if it was a Lender, except that a Participant shall (i) only deliver the forms described in Section 3.02(e) to the Lender granting it such participation and (ii) not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.01 or 3.02 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive absent the participation, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

In the event that any Lender sells participations in a Loan, such Lender shall, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the applicable Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of all Participants in such Loan and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of such Loan that is the subject of the participation (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of the participation in question for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. A Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register (and each registered note shall expressly so provide). No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary in connection with a Tax audit or other proceeding to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations.

(i) Any Lender may assign all, or if less than all, a fixed portion, of its Loans, LC Participations, Swing Loan Participations and/or Commitments and its rights and obligations hereunder to one or more Eligible Assignees, each of which shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment Agreement; provided, however, that:

(A) except in the case of (x) an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments or (y) an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment so assigned (which for this purpose includes the Loans outstanding thereunder) shall not be less than $2,500,000 (unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent);

(B) in the case of any assignment to an Eligible Assignee at the time of any such assignment the Lender Register shall be deemed modified to reflect the Commitments of such new Lender and of the existing Lenders;

(C) upon surrender of the old Notes, if any, upon request of the new Lender, new Notes will be issued, at the Borrower’s expense, to such new Lender and to the assigning Lender, to the extent needed to reflect the revised Commitments;

(D) unless waived by the Administrative Agent, except in the case of an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender, or any Lenders in connection with the initial syndication of the Credit Facilities on or after the Closing Date, the Administrative Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning or assignee Lender, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500; and

(E) any such assignment shall require the prior written consent (such consent (except with respect to assignments to competitors of the Borrower) not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

(1) the Borrower; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment (x) by a Lender to any Lender or a U.S. based-Affiliate of any Lender, (y) by a Lender to an Approved Fund and (z) during a Specified Event of Default (unless such assignment is to a Disqualified Lender). Notwithstanding anything in this Section 11.06 to the contrary, if the Borrower has not given the Administrative Agent written notice of its objection to an assignment of Loans within fifteen (15) Business Days after written notice of such assignment, the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to such assignment;

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

(3) each LC Issuer and Swing Line Lender; provided that no consent of an LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender shall be required for an assignment of a Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund.

(ii) To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this subsection (c), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Commitments.

(iii) At the time of each assignment pursuant to this subsection (c) to a Person that is not already a Lender hereunder, the respective assignee Lender shall provide to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent the applicable Internal Revenue Service Forms (and any necessary additional documentation) described in Section 3.02(e).

(iv) With respect to any Lender, the transfer of any Commitment of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such Commitment shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Lender Register maintained by the Administrative Agent (on behalf of and acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the applicable Borrower) with respect to ownership of such Commitment and Loans, including the name and address of the Lenders and the principal amount of the Loans (and stated interest thereon). Prior to such recordation, all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitment and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Commitments and Loans shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Lender Register only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment Agreement pursuant to this subsection (c). The entries in the Lender Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Lender Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. The Lender Register shall be available for the inspection by the Borrower and any Lender (solely with respect to its own interest in any Loan or Commitment) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(vi) Nothing in this Section 11.06(c) shall prevent or prohibit (A) any Lender that is a bank, trust company or other financial institution from pledging its Notes or Loans to a Federal Reserve Bank or to any Person that extends credit to such Lender in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank or such other Person, or (B) any Lender that is a trust, limited liability company, partnership or other investment company from pledging its Notes or Loans to a trustee or agent for the benefit of holders of certificates or debt securities issued by it. No such pledge, or any assignment pursuant to or in lieu of an enforcement of such a pledge, shall relieve the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder.

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

(d) No SEC Registration or Blue Sky Compliance. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 11.06, no transfer or assignment of the interests or obligations of any Lender hereunder or any grant of participation therein shall be permitted if such transfer, assignment or grant would require the Borrower to file a registration statement with the SEC or to qualify the Loans under the “Blue Sky” laws of any State.

(e) Representations of Lenders. Each Lender initially party to this Agreement hereby represents, and each Person that becomes a Lender pursuant to an assignment permitted by this Section 11.06 will, upon its becoming party to this Agreement, represents that it is a commercial lender, other financial institution or other “accredited” investor (as defined in SEC Regulation D) that makes or acquires loans in the ordinary course of its business and that it will make or acquire Loans for its own account in the ordinary course of such business; provided, however, that subject to the preceding Sections 11.06(b) and (c), the disposition of any promissory notes or other evidences of or interests in Indebtedness held by such Lender shall at all times be within its exclusive control.

(f) Special Purpose Funding Vehicles. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (“Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (a “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (x) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loans and (y) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this clause, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and the Administrative

Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This Section 11.06 may not be amended without the written consent of the SPC. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees, subject to the next sentence that, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, each SPC, for purposes of Sections 2.10, 2.14, 3.01, 3.02, 11.01, 11.02 and 11.03, shall be considered a Lender. The Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount under Sections 2.10, 2.14, 3.01, 3.02, 11.01, 11.02 and 11.03 that is greater than the amount that it would have been required to pay had no grant been made by a Granting Lender to a SPC, except to the extent such SPC’s entitlement to a greater payment arose from a change in law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in interpretation, administration or application thereof by the relevant Governmental Authority, after the grant was made to the SPC.

Section 11.07 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any LC Issuer in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or any LC Issuance shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any LC Issuer may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time. The rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies that the Administrative Agent or any Lender would otherwise have.

(d) To the extent the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders, as applicable, as shall be required by this Section 11.12) waive the provisions of Section 7.03 with respect to the sale, transfer or other disposition of any Collateral, or any Collateral is sold, transferred or disposed of as permitted by Section 7.03, (i) such Collateral (but not any proceeds thereof) shall be sold, transferred or disposed of free and clear of the Liens created by the respective Security Documents; (ii) if such Collateral includes all of the Equity Interests of a Subsidiary that is a party to the Guaranty or whose stock is pledged pursuant to the Collateral Agreement, such Equity Interests (but not any proceeds thereof) shall be automatically released from the Collateral Agreement and such Subsidiary shall be automatically released from the Guaranty and (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to take actions deemed appropriate by it in order to evidence or effectuate the foregoing.

Each Lender agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any of the Loan Documents and without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, it will not take any legal action or institute any action or proceeding against any Loan Party with respect to any of the Obligations or Collateral, or accelerate or otherwise enforce its portion of the Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, none of Lenders may exercise any right that it might otherwise have under applicable law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, uniform commercial code sales or other similar sales or dispositions of any of the Collateral except as authorized by the Required Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 11.12(e) or elsewhere herein, each Lender shall be authorized to take such action to preserve or enforce its rights against any Loan Party where a deadline or limitation period is otherwise applicable and would, absent the taking of specified action, bar the enforcement of Obligations held by such Lender against such Loan Party, including the filing of proofs of claim in any insolvency proceeding.

(f) If in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent (a “Proposed Change”) with respect to any provisions hereof as contemplated by this Section 11.12 that requires the consent of a greater percentage of the Lenders than the Required Lenders, the consent of the Required Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of a Lender whose consent is required shall not have been obtained (each a “Non-Consenting Lender”) then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Non-Consenting Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse, all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and any other Loan Document to an Eligible Assignee (including any Investor, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of Section 11.06) that shall assume such obligations; provided that such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts, including any breakage compensation under Section 3.04 and any amounts accrued and owing to such Lender under Section 3.01 or 3.02). Each Lender agrees that, if it becomes a Non-Consenting Lender and is being replaced in accordance with this Section 11.12(f), it shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement to evidence such assignment and shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any Notes previously delivered to such Non-Consenting Lender. If such Non-Consenting Lender fails to execute such Assignment Agreement within two (2) Business Days following its receipt thereof from the Administrative Agent, it shall be deemed to have executed such Assignment Agreement.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender consent is required to effect any amendment or supplement to the ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement or any Customary Intercreditor Agreement or other intercreditor agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement that is for the purpose of adding the holders of any Indebtedness as expressly contemplated by the terms of the ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement or such Customary Intercreditor Agreement or such other intercreditor agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement, as applicable (it being understood that any such amendment or supplement may make such other changes to the applicable intercreditor agreement as, in the good faith determination of the Administrative Agent, are required to effectuate the foregoing; provided that such other changes are not adverse, in any material respect, to the interests of the Lenders); provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

(h) Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency so long as, in each case, (i) the Administrative Agent reasonably believes such amendment is required to give effect to the purpose, terms, and conditions of this Agreement or (ii) the Lenders shall have received at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment; provided that the consent of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as the case may be, shall not be required to make any such changes necessary to be made in connection with any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Assumption Agreement or any Extension Amendment.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 11.12, guarantees, collateral documents and related documents executed by Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be, together with any other Loan Document, entered into, amended, supplemented or waived, without the consent of any other person, by the applicable Loan Party or Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent in its or their respective sole discretion, to (i) effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, (ii) as required by local law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable requirements of law, or (iii) to cure ambiguities, omissions, mistakes or defects or to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender, (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms materially and adversely affects any Defaulting Lender (if such Lender were not a Defaulting Lender) to a greater extent than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender and (z) any reduction or postponement of payments due to Defaulting Lenders (other than as provided in Section 2.17).

Section 11.13 Survival of Indemnities. All indemnities set forth herein including Article III, Section 9.09 or Section 11.02 shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making and repayment of the Obligations.

Section 11.14 Domicile of Loans. Each Lender may transfer and carry its Loans at, to or for the account of any branch office, subsidiary or affiliate of such Lender; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be responsible for costs arising under Section 3.01 resulting from any such transfer (other than a transfer pursuant to Section 3.03) to the extent not otherwise applicable to such Lender prior to such transfer.

(a) Each of the Administrative Agent, each LC Issuer and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information, except that Confidential Information may be disclosed (1) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors on a confidential and need-to-know basis (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and instructed to keep such Confidential Information confidential), (2) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in any Hedge Agreement (or to any such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor on a confidential and need-to-know basis), so long as such contractual counterparty (or such professional advisor) agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 11.15, (3) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the applicable disclosing party, (4) pursuant to the order of any court or administrative agency or in any pending legal, judicial or administrative proceeding or other compulsory process or otherwise as required by applicable laws or regulations (in which case, each disclosing party agrees (except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority), to inform you to the extent not prohibited by law), (5) to any other party to this Agreement, (6) to any other creditor of a Loan Party that is a direct or intended beneficiary of this Agreement, (7) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under Section 8.02, or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (6) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 11.15, to any current or prospective funding source of a Lender and to any assignee of or participant in any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, or in connection with transactions permitted pursuant to Section 11.06(f), in each case, to the extent such Person is an Eligible Assignee and excluding, for the avoidance of doubt any Disqualified Lender; except to the extent that such Disqualified Lender is of the type referred to in clause (a) of

the definition thereof and such the identity of such Disqualified Lender has not been made available to the Lenders) (7) with the written consent of the Borrower, or (8) to the extent such Confidential Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 11.15 or any other confidentiality agreement known after reasonable diligence by such Person to be applicable to such Confidential Information, or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer or any Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than a Loan Party or any of their Affiliates or any other Person with a confidentiality obligation to any Loan Party or any of their Affiliates and not otherwise in violation of this Section 11.15.

(b) As used in this Section 11.15, “Confidential Information” means all information received from the Borrower or its Affiliates or the Investors relating to the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or their businesses; provided, however, that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or its Affiliates after the Closing Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential.

(c) The Borrower hereby agrees that the failure of the Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer or any Lender to comply with the provisions of this Section 11.15 shall not relieve the Borrower, or any other Loan Party, of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

Neither any LC Issuer nor any of its officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the use that may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; or (c) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit, except that the LC Obligor shall have a claim against an LC Issuer, and an LC Issuer shall be liable to such LC Obligor, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by such LC Obligor that such LC Obligor proves were caused by such LC Issuer’s willful misconduct, gross negligence or breach of a Loan Document as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, an LC Issuer may accept documents that reasonably appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation.

When the Termination Date has occurred, and the Loan Parties have delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent a written release of all claims against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent will, at the Borrower’s sole expense, execute and deliver any termination statements, lien releases, mortgage releases, re-assignments or releases of Intellectual Property, discharges of security interests, and other similar discharge or release documents (and, if applicable, in recordable form) as are necessary or advisable and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to release, as of record, the Administrative Agent’s and/or the Collateral Agent’s Liens and all notices of security interests and liens previously filed by the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent with respect to the Obligations.

Section 11.28 Amendment and Restatement. On the Closing Date, this Agreement shall amend and restate and supersede the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety. On the Closing Date, the rights and obligations of the parties evidenced by the Existing Credit Agreement shall be evidenced by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified and in effect on the Closing Date. All principal, interest, fees and expenses, if any, owing or accruing under or in respect of the Existing Credit Agreement for periods prior to the Closing Date shall be calculated and paid on the Closing Date. Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, each reference in the Loan Documents to “the Credit Agreement” or words of similar effect shall mean this Agreement. Each Loan Party (a) acknowledges and agrees that each Loan Document (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) and all other instruments and documents executed and delivered by such Loan Party in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, pursuant the Existing Credit Agreement, unless terminated or discharged prior to or on the Closing Date, shall remain in full force and effect on the Closing Date in accordance with its terms, in each case as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified and/or reaffirmed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and (b) ratifies, reaffirms and confirms that, the Obligations that remain unpaid and outstanding as of the date of this Agreement after giving effect to the Transactions (x) continue outstanding under this Agreement and shall not be deemed to be paid, released, discharged or otherwise satisfied by the execution of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall not constitute a refinancing, substitution or novation of such Obligations or any of the other rights, duties and obligations of the parties hereunder, and the terms “Obligations” as such term is used in the Loan Documents shall include the Obligations as amended and restated under this Agreement, and (y) are secured pursuant to the Collateral Documents (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement), unless terminated or discharged on the Closing

Date, in each case as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified and/or reaffirmed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all security interests, pledges, assignments and other Liens and Guarantees previously granted by any Loan Party pursuant to the Loan Documents executed and delivered in connection with the Existing Credit Agreement are hereby reaffirmed, ratified, renewed and continued, and all such security interests, pledges, assignments and other Liens and Guarantees, in each case, unless expressly terminated, superseded or discharged on and after the Closing Date, shall remain in full force and effect as security for the Obligations (as defined in this Agreement) on and after the Closing Date.

Section 11.29 Loans Under Existing Credit Agreement. On the Closing Date: no Loans are outstanding. The Revolving Commitments under and as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement shall continue as Revolving Commitments hereunder and shall be assigned or re-allocated among the Revolving Commitments hereunder and, after giving effect thereto and the continuation of loans and other extensions of credit under the Existing Credit Agreement under the immediately preceding sentence, the percentages of the Revolving Credit Commitments are as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto. In the event that, after giving effect to the foregoing conversions and continuations and funding of Revolving Loans on the Closing Date, any Lender holds any Revolving Loans in excess of its pro rata share thereof, the Lenders shall effect a settlement among themselves, in such manner as the Administrative Agent may direct, so as to cause each Lender to hold its pro rata share of all such outstanding Revolving Loans.

Section 11.30 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by 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:

(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 undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

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

Section 11.31 Flood Matters. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that, if there are any Mortgaged Properties, any increase in commitments, extension of maturity or renewal of any of the Commitments shall be subject to (and conditioned upon) the prior delivery of all flood hazard determination certifications, acknowledgements and evidence of flood insurance and other flood-related documentation with respect to such Mortgaged Properties as required by applicable Flood Insurance Laws.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the parties hereto has caused a counterpart of this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered as of the date first above written.
