(C) If there is at least one Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender, the relevant Loan Party or Subsidiary will make a prepayment of outstanding Loans pursuant to this paragraph (ii) to each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with the respective outstanding amount and tranches of Loans specified in such Lender’s Specified Discount Prepayment Response given pursuant to subsection (B) above; provided that, if the aggregate principal amount of Loans accepted for prepayment by all Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders exceeds the Specified Discount Prepayment Amount, such prepayment shall be made pro rata among the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts accepted to be prepaid by each such Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender and the Auction Agent (with the consent of such Loan Party or such Subsidiary and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Specified Discount Proration”). The Auction Agent shall promptly, and in any case within three (3) Business Days following the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date, notify (I) the relevant Loan Party or Subsidiary of the respective Lenders’ responses to such offer, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and the aggregate principal amount of the Discounted Loan Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date,

and the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of Loans to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such date and (III) each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender of the Specified Discount Proration, if any, and confirmation of the principal amount, tranche and Type of Loans of such Lender to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such date. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to the Loan Party and such Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to the Loan Party or Subsidiary shall be due and payable by such Loan Party on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with subsection (vi) below (subject to subsection (x)) below).

(iii) (A) Any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries may from time to time solicit Discount Range Prepayment Offers by providing the Auction Agent with five (5) Business Days’ notice in the form of a Discount Range Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such solicitation shall be extended, at the sole discretion of such Loan Party or such Subsidiary, to (x) each Lender and/or (y) each Lender with respect to any class of Loans on an individual tranche basis, (II) any such notice shall specify the maximum aggregate principal amount of the relevant Loans (the “Discount Range Prepayment Amount”), the tranche or tranches of Loans subject to such offer and the maximum and minimum percentage discounts to par (the “Discount Range”) of the principal amount of such Loans with respect to each relevant tranche of Loans willing to be prepaid by such Loan Party or such Subsidiary (it being understood that different Discount Ranges and/or Discount Range Prepayment Amounts may be offered with respect to different tranches of Loans and, in such event, each such offer will be treated as a separate offer pursuant to the terms of this Section), (III) the Discount Range Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $5,000,000 and whole increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (IV) subject to subsection (x) below, each such solicitation by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries shall remain outstanding through the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date. The Auction Agent will promptly provide each Appropriate Lender with a copy of such Discount Range Prepayment Notice and a form of the Discount Range Prepayment Offer to be submitted by a responding Lender to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m. on the third (3rd) Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to such Lenders (which date may be extended by notice from the Loan Party or Subsidiary to the Auction Agent) (the “Discount Range Prepayment Response Date”). Each Lender’s Discount Range Prepayment Offer shall be irrevocable and shall specify one or more (but no more than three for any Lender) discounts to par within the Discount Range (the “Submitted Discount”) at which such Lender is willing to allow prepayment of any or all of its then outstanding Loans of the applicable tranche or tranches and the maximum aggregate principal amount and tranches of such Lender’s Loans (the “Submitted Amount”) such Lender is willing to have prepaid at the Submitted Discount. Any Lender whose Discount Range Prepayment Offer is not received by the Auction Agent by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept a Discounted Loan Prepayment of any of its Loans at any discount to their par value within the Discount Range.

(B) The Auction Agent shall review all Discount Range Prepayment Offers received on or before the applicable Discount Range Prepayment Response Date and shall determine (with the consent of such Loan Party or such Subsidiary and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) the Applicable Discount and Loans to be prepaid at such Applicable Discount in accordance with this subsection (B). The relevant Loan Party or Subsidiary agrees to accept on the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date all Discount Range Prepayment Offers received by the Auction Agent within the Discount Range by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date, in the order from the Submitted Discount that is the largest discount

to par to the Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par, up to and including the Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par within the Discount Range (such Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par within the Discount Range being referred to as the “Applicable Discount”) which yields a Discounted Loan Prepayment in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lower of (I) the Discount Range Prepayment Amount and (II) the sum of all Submitted Amounts. Each Lender that has submitted a Discount Range Prepayment Offer to accept prepayment at a discount to par that is larger than or equal to the Applicable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Loans equal to its Submitted Amount (subject to any required proration pursuant to the following subsection (C)) at the Applicable Discount (each such Lender, a “Participating Lender”).

(C) Subject to subsection (x) below, if there is at least one Participating Lender, the relevant Loan Party or Subsidiary will prepay the respective outstanding Loans of each Participating Lender on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in the aggregate principal amount and of the tranches specified in such Lender’s Discount Range Prepayment Offer at the Applicable Discount; provided that if the Submitted Amount by all Participating Lenders offered at a discount to par greater than the Applicable Discount exceeds the Discount Range Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the principal amount of the relevant Loans for those Participating Lenders whose Submitted Discount is a discount to par greater than or equal to the Applicable Discount (the “Identified Participating Lenders”) shall be made pro rata among the Identified Participating Lenders in accordance with the Submitted Amount of each such Identified Participating Lender and the Auction Agent (with the consent of such Loan Party or such Subsidiary and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Discount Range Proration”). The Auction Agent shall promptly, and in any case within five (5) Business Days following the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date, notify (I) the relevant Loan Party or Subsidiary of the respective Lenders’ responses to such solicitation, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Applicable Discount, and the aggregate principal amount of the Discounted Loan Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Applicable Discount, and the aggregate principal amount and tranches of Loans to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (III) each Participating Lender of the aggregate principal amount and tranches of such Lender to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, and (IV) if applicable, each Identified Participating Lender of the Discount Range Proration. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to the relevant Loan Party or Subsidiary and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to the Loan Party or Subsidiary shall be due and payable by such Loan Party on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with subsection (vi) below (subject to subsection (x) below).

(iv) (A) Any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries may from time to time solicit offers for discounted prepayments by providing the Auction Agent with five (5) Business Days’ notice in substantially the form of a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice in the form of Exhibit O; provided that (I) any such solicitation shall be extended, at the sole discretion of such Loan Party or such Subsidiary, to (x) each Lender and/or (y) each Lender with respect to any class of Loans on an individual tranche basis, (II) any such notice shall specify the maximum aggregate amount of the Loans (the “Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount”) and the tranche or tranches of Loans the Loan Party or Subsidiary is willing to prepay at a discount (it being understood that different Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amounts may be offered with respect to different

tranches of Loans and, in such event, each such offer will be treated as separate offer pursuant to the terms of this Section), (III) the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $5,000,000 and whole increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (IV) subject to subsection (x) below, each such solicitation by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries shall remain outstanding through the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date. The Auction Agent will promptly provide each Appropriate Lender with a copy of such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice and a form of the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer in the form of Exhibit P to be submitted by a responding Lender to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m., on the third (3rd) Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to such Lenders (which date may be extended upon notice from the Loan Party or Subsidiary to the Auction Agent) (the “Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date”). Each Lender’s Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer shall (x) be irrevocable, (y) remain outstanding until the Acceptance Date, and (z) specify both one or more (but no more than three) discounts to par (the “Offered Discount”) at which such Lender is willing to allow prepayment of its then outstanding Loan and the maximum aggregate principal amount and tranches of such Loans (the “Offered Amount”) such Lender is willing to have prepaid at the Offered Discount. Any Lender whose Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer is not received by the Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined prepayment of any of its Loans at any discount.

(B) The Auction Agent shall promptly provide the relevant Loan Party or Subsidiary with a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received on or before the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date. Such Loan Party or such Subsidiary shall review all such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers and select the largest of the Offered Discounts specified by the relevant responding Lenders in the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers that is acceptable to the Loan Party or Subsidiary in its sole discretion (the “Acceptable Discount”), if any. If the Loan Party or Subsidiary elects, in its sole discretion, to accept any Offered Discount as the Acceptable Discount, in no event later than by the third (3rd) Business Day after the date of receipt by such Loan Party or such Subsidiary from the Auction Agent of a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers pursuant to the first sentence of this subsection (B) (the “Acceptance Date”), the Loan Party or Subsidiary may submit an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice to the Auction Agent setting forth the Acceptable Discount. If the Auction Agent shall fail to receive an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice in the form of Exhibit J from the Loan Party or Subsidiary by the Acceptance Date, such Loan Party or such Subsidiary shall be deemed to have rejected all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers.

(C) Based upon the Acceptable Discount and the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, within three (3) Business Days after receipt of an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice (the “Discounted Prepayment Determination Date”), the Auction Agent will determine (with the consent of such Loan Party or such Subsidiary and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of Loans (the “Acceptable Prepayment Amount”) to be prepaid by the relevant Loan Party or Subsidiary at the Acceptable Discount in accordance with this Section 2.10(c)(iv). If the Loan Party or Subsidiary elects to accept any Acceptable Discount, then the Loan Party or Subsidiary agrees to accept all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, in the order from largest Offered Discount to smallest Offered Discount, up to and including the Acceptable Discount. Each Lender that has submitted a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer with an Offered Discount that is greater

than or equal to the Acceptable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Loans equal to its Offered Amount (subject to any required pro-rata reduction pursuant to the following sentence) at the Acceptable Discount (each such Lender, a “Qualifying Lender”). The Loan Party or Subsidiary may prepay outstanding Loans pursuant to this subsection (iv) to each Qualifying Lender in the aggregate principal amount and of the tranches specified in such Lender’s Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer at the Acceptable Discount; provided that if the aggregate Offered Amount by all Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount exceeds the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the principal amount of the Loans for those Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount (the “Identified Qualifying Lenders”) shall be made pro rata among the Identified Qualifying Lenders in accordance with the Offered Amount of each such Identified Qualifying Lender and the Auction Agent (with the consent of such Loan Party or such Subsidiary and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Solicited Discount Proration”). On or prior to the Discounted Prepayment Determination Date, the Auction Agent shall promptly notify (I) the relevant Loan Party or Subsidiary of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and Acceptable Prepayment Amount comprising the Discounted Loan Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Acceptable Discount, and the Acceptable Prepayment Amount of all Loans and the tranches to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (III) each Qualifying Lender of the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of such Lender to be prepaid at the Acceptable Discount on such date, and (IV) if applicable, each Identified Qualifying Lender of the Solicited Discount Proration. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to such Loan Party or such Subsidiary and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to such Loan Party or such Subsidiary shall be due and payable by such Loan Party or such Subsidiary on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with subsection (vi) below (subject to subsection (x) below).

(v) In connection with any Discounted Loan Prepayment, the Loan Parties and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Auction Agent may require as a condition to any Discounted Loan Prepayment, the payment of customary and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses from a Loan Party or Subsidiary in connection therewith.

(vi) If any Loan is prepaid in accordance with paragraphs (ii) through (iv) above, a Loan Party or Subsidiary shall prepay such Loans on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date without premium or penalty. The relevant Loan Party or Subsidiary shall make such prepayment to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately available funds not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and all such prepayments shall be applied to the remaining principal installments of the relevant tranche of Loans on a pro rata basis across such installments. The Loans so prepaid shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest on the par principal amount so prepaid up to, but not including, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date. Each prepayment of the outstanding Loans pursuant to this Section 2.10(c) shall be paid to the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable, and shall be applied to the relevant Loans of such Lenders in accordance with their respective pro rata share. The aggregate principal amount of the tranches and installments of the relevant Loans outstanding shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the tranches of Loans

prepaid on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in any Discounted Loan Prepayment. In connection with each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.10(c), each relevant Loan Party and Lender shall render customary “big boy” letters to each other and the Auction Agent regarding Excluded Information.

(vii) To the extent not expressly provided for herein, each Discounted Loan Prepayment (which for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any open market purchases of Loans or Commitments otherwise permitted by the terms hereof) shall be consummated pursuant to procedures consistent with the provisions in this Section 2.10(c) or as otherwise established by the Auction Agent acting in its reasonable discretion and as reasonably agreed by the Borrower.

(viii) Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, for purposes of this Section 2.10(c), to the extent the Administrative Agent is the Auction Agent, each notice or other communication required to be delivered or otherwise provided to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) shall be deemed to have been given upon the Auction Agent’s (or its delegate’s) actual receipt during normal business hours of such notice or communication; provided that any notice or communication actually received outside of normal business hours shall be deemed to have been given as of the opening of business on the next Business Day.

(ix) Each of the Loan Parties and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Auction Agent may perform any and all of its duties under this Section 2.10(c) by itself or through any Affiliate of the Auction Agent and expressly consents to any such delegation of duties by the Auction Agent to such Affiliate and the performance of such delegated duties by such Affiliate. The exculpatory provisions pursuant to this Agreement shall apply to each Affiliate of the Auction Agent and its respective activities in connection with any Discounted Loan Prepayment provided for in this Section 2.10(c) as well as activities of the Auction Agent.

(x) Each Loan Party and any of its Subsidiaries shall have the right, by written notice to the Auction Agent, to revoke or modify its offer to make a Discounted Loan Prepayment and rescind the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Notice, Discount Range Prepayment Notice or Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice therefor at its discretion at any time on or prior to the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date.

(xi) Any failure by such Loan Party or such Subsidiary to make any prepayment to a Lender, pursuant to this Section 2.10(c) shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default under Section 8 or otherwise.

(xii) To the extent the Auction Agent is required to deliver notices or communicate such other information to the Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.10(c), the Auction Agent will work with the Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent will cooperate with the Auction Agent) in order to procure the delivery of such notices and/or the communication of such information to the applicable Lenders.

(xiii) Nothing in this Section 2.10(c) shall require the Loan Parties or any of their Subsidiaries to undertake any Discounted Loan Prepayment.

(a) If Indebtedness shall be issued or incurred by any Loan Party (i) not permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 7.2 or (ii) that is intended to constitute Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of the Term Loans, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds

thereof shall be applied as soon as practicable but in any event within five (5) Business Days after such issuance or incurrence toward the prepayment of the Term Loans on a pro rata basis (except, as to Term Loans made pursuant to an Incremental Facility Amendment or a Refinancing Amendment, as otherwise set forth in such Incremental Facility Amendment or a Refinancing Amendment, or as to a Replacement Tranche B Term Loan) as set forth in Section 2.11(d); provided, that all prepayments under this Section 2.11(a) shall be accompanied by the Repricing Premium, if applicable.

(b) Subject to clause (e) below, if on any date any Loan Party shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Recovery Event, then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied as soon as practicable but in any event within ten (10) days after the date of receipt thereof toward the prepayment of the Tranche B Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(d) on a pro rata basis (except, as to Term Loans made pursuant to an Incremental Facility Amendment or a Refinancing Amendment, as otherwise set forth in such Incremental Facility Amendment or a Refinancing Amendment, or as to a Replacement Tranche B Term Loan); provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Tranche B Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(d); provided, further, that with respect to any prepayment event referenced in this paragraph (b), (i) the Borrower shall not be obligated to make any prepayment otherwise required by this paragraph (b) unless and until the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds from all such Asset Sale and Recovery Events, after giving effect to the reinvestment rights set forth herein, exceeds $5,000,000 (the “Prepayment Trigger”) in any fiscal year of the Borrower, but then from all such Net Cash Proceeds (excluding amounts below the Prepayment Trigger) and (ii) the Borrower may use a portion of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay or repurchase First Lien Senior Secured Notes or any other Indebtedness secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Liens securing the Obligations (the “Other Applicable Indebtedness”) to the extent required pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Other Applicable Indebtedness, in which case, the amount of prepayment required to be made with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds pursuant to this Section 2.11(b) shall be deemed to be the amount equal to the product of (x) the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds multiplied by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans required to be prepaid pursuant to this paragraph (b) and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of such Other Applicable Indebtedness required to be prepaid pursuant to the terms of the documents governing such Other Applicable Indebtedness and the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans required to be prepaid pursuant to this paragraph.

(c) Subject to clause (e) below, if, for any fiscal year of the Borrower commencing with the fiscal year ending September 30, 2015, there shall be Excess Cash Flow, the Borrower shall, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, apply an amount equal to (i) the ECF Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow less (ii) the aggregate principal amount of all prepayments of Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans made during such fiscal year to the extent accompanying permitted optional reductions of the Revolving Commitments and the aggregate amount of cash used for all optional prepayments of Term Loans made during such fiscal year, toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(d) on a pro rata basis (except, as to term Loans made pursuant to an Incremental Facility Amendment or a Refinancing Amendment, as otherwise set forth in such Incremental Facility Amendment or a Refinancing Amendment, or as to a Replacement Tranche B Term Loan\). Each such prepayment shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) no later than five (5) Business Days after the earlier of (i) the date on which the financial statements of the Borrower referred to in Section 6.1(a), for the fiscal year with respect to which such prepayment is made, are required to be delivered to the Lenders and (ii) the date such financial statements are actually delivered.

(d) The application of any prepayment of Tranche B Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11 shall be made, first, to ABR Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans; provided that, if such application

would be inconsistent with Section 2.17(b), then Section 2.17(b) shall apply. Each prepayment of Tranche B Term Loans under this Section 2.11 shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid and by any amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.20.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.11, (i) to the extent that any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Disposition by a Foreign Subsidiary or Domestic Foreign Holding Company giving rise to a prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11(b) (a “Foreign Disposition”), the Net Cash Proceeds of any such prepayment event pursuant to Section 2.11(b) from a Foreign Subsidiary (a “Foreign Prepayment Event”), or Excess Cash Flow would be (x) prohibited or delayed by applicable local law, (y) restricted by applicable organizational or constitutive documents or any agreement or (z) subject to other onerous organizational or administrative impediments, from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans as provided in Section 2.11(b) or (c), as the case may be, and instead, such amounts may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary or Domestic Foreign Holding Company (the Borrower hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (as determined in the Borrower’s reasonable business judgment) to otherwise cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to within one year following the date on which the respective payment would otherwise have been required, promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law, applicable organizational or constitutive impediment or other impediment to permit such repatriation), and if within one year following the date on which the respective payment would otherwise have been required, such repatriation of any such affected Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable law, applicable organizational or constitutive impediment or other impediment, such repatriation will be promptly effect and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly (and in any event not later than five (5) Business Days after such repatriation could be made) applied (net of additional taxes, costs and expenses payable or reserved against as a result thereof) (whether or not repatriation actually occurs) to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11 to the extent provided herein and (ii) to the extent that Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition, any Foreign Prepayment Event or Excess Cash Flow would have an adverse tax cost consequence with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow (which for the avoidance of doubt, includes, but is not limited to, any prepayment whereby doing so Holdings, the Borrower, any Restricted Subsidiary or any of their respective affiliates and/or equity partners would incur a tax liability, including a tax dividend, deemed dividend pursuant to Code Section 956 or a withholding tax), the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary or Domestic Foreign Holding Company. The non-application of any prepayment amounts as a consequence of the foregoing provisions will not, for the avoidance of doubt, constitute a Default or an Event of Default.

(f) In connection with (i) any optional prepayment of borrowings hereunder, the Borrower making the prepayment or (ii) any mandatory prepayment of borrowings hereunder, the Borrower making the prepayment shall, in each case, subject to the provisions of this paragraph and paragraph (d) of this Section, select the borrowing or borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender holding the applicable Class of Term Loans of the contents of the Borrower’s prepayment notice and of such Lender’s pro rata share of the prepayment. Each such Term Loan Lender may reject all (but not less than all) of its pro rata share of any mandatory prepayment (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of this Section 2.11 by providing notice to the Administrative Agent at or prior to the time of such prepayment; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, no Lender may reject any prepayment made with the proceeds of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness. Any Declined Proceeds remaining thereafter shall be retained by the Borrower (“Retained Declined Proceeds”).

(g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Lenders holding any Initial Term Loans shall always be entitled to pro rata payment in respect of such Initial Term Loans.

(a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date, provided that any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election substantially in the form of Exhibit H-5 no later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the third (3rd) Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor), provided that no ABR Loan under a particular Facility may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan in excess of one month when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such conversions. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

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

2.13 Limitations on Eurodollar Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than twelve Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.

(a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Each ABR Loan, including any Swingline Loan, shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) (i) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of the Loans, the rate that

would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.14 plus 2%, (y) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations in respect of a Revolving L/C Disbursement, the rate applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility plus 2%, or (z) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations in respect of an Institutional L/C Disbursement, the rate applicable to ABR Loans under the Tranche B Term Facility plus 2% and (ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or any fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility plus 2% (or, in the case of any such other amounts that do not relate to a particular Facility, the rate then applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility plus 2%), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment).

(d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.14 shall be payable from time to time on demand.

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

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.14(a).

2.16 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

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

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

the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans, (y) any Loans under the relevant Facility that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest

Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, to ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans under the relevant Facility to Eurodollar Loans.

(a) Each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Tranche B Term Commitments or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, of the relevant Lenders. Each payment by the Borrower on account of commitment fees hereunder shall be made pro rata according to the respective Revolving Commitments of the relevant Lenders.

(b) Except as otherwise provided herein from time to time, each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Tranche B Term Loans shall be made (i) in the case of principal, pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Tranche B Term Loans then held by the Tranche B Term Lenders, and (ii) in the case of interest, pro rata according to the respective amounts of accrued and unpaid interest on the Tranche B Term Loans then due to the Tranche B Term Lenders. The amount of each principal prepayment of the Tranche B Term Loans shall be applied to reduce the then remaining installments of the Tranche B Term Loans as directed by the Borrower by notice to the Administrative Agent. Amounts prepaid on account of the Tranche B Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

(c) Except as otherwise provided herein from time to time, each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Loans shall be made (i) in the case of principal, pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loans then held by the Revolving Lenders, and (ii) in the case of interest, pro rata according to the respective amounts of accrued and unpaid interest on the Revolving Loans then due to the Revolving Lenders.

(d) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the applicable Lenders (or, in the case of amounts payable to them, to the Swingline Lender or Issuing Lender, or, in the case of amounts payable to it, retained by the Administrative Agent) promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date

therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon, at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility, on demand, from the Borrower. If the Borrower and such Lender shall 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. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such borrowing. 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.

(f) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by the Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower.

(i) shall legally impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate; or

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount that such Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable by such Lender hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly and in any event within five (5) Business Days pay such Lender, upon its written demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy

or liquidity requirements (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the Closing Date shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity requirements) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material and to the extent reasonably determined such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender’s Commitments or participations in Letters of Credit hereunder, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction.

(c) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) with appropriate detail demonstrating how such amounts were derived shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(d) This Section 2.18 shall not apply to taxes, which shall be governed by Section 2.19.

(a) Unless required by a Requirement of Law, all payments made by any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (including any interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto), now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority (“Taxes”), excluding (i) net income Taxes (however denominated) and franchise Taxes (imposed in lieu of net income Taxes), in each case, (x) imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender by the United States of America, or by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which such recipient is organized or in which its principal lending office is located, or in the case of any Lender, in which its applicable lending office is located or (y) that are Other Connection Taxes and (ii) any branch profits taxes imposed by the United States of America under Section 884 (a) of the Code or any similar taxes, imposed by any jurisdiction described in (i) (clauses (i) and (ii), the “Excluded Taxes”). If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) or Other Taxes are required by law to be withheld by an applicable withholding agent from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be increased by the applicable Loan Party to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable under the applicable Loan Document at the rates or in the amounts specified therein, provided, however that a Loan Party shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to any recipient with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes (A) that are attributable to such recipient’s failure to comply with the requirements of paragraph (d), (e) or (g) of this Section 2.19, (B) that are United States federal withholding Taxes imposed on amounts payable to such recipient pursuant to any Requirement of Law in effect at the time such recipient becomes a party to this Agreement (or designates a new lending office other than a designation pursuant to Section 2.21 at the request of the Borrower), except to the extent that such recipient or its assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of designation of a new lending office or assignment, to receive additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to this paragraph, or (C) that are United States federal withholding Taxes that would not have been imposed but for a failure by such recipient (or any financial institution through which any payment is made to such recipient) to comply with the applicable requirements of FATCA (clauses (A), (B) and (C), the “Non-Indemnifiable Taxes”). Nothing contained in this Section 2.19(a) shall require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the relevant Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Loan Parties showing payment thereof. If any Loan Party fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest, additions to tax and penalties, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or in respect thereto that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure.

(d) Each Lender (or Transferee) that is not a “U.S. Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) two (2) executed original copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI or W-8EXP, or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C (a “Non-Bank Tax Certificate”) and a Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all applicable payments by the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any Non-U.S. Lender that is a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise not the beneficial owner (i.e., who has sold a participation) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two (2) executed original copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, together with the applicable Form W-8, Form W-9 and other required attachments, and, in the case of any beneficial owner claiming the “portfolio interest” exemption, a Non-Bank Tax Certificate (provided that, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is a partnership, any Non-Bank Tax Certificate may be provided by the Non-U.S. Lender on behalf of the beneficial owner(s)). Any forms described above shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation). In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction and shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence, expiration or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(e) A Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of any withholding tax other than U.S. federal withholding tax, with respect to payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate, provided that such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in such Lender’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice the legal position of such Lender.

(f) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Loan Party or with respect to which any Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.19, 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 2.19 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (including any taxes imposed on such refund) 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 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 but only if such repayment is required because the initial refund was permitted in error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Loan Party or any other Person.

(g) At the times specified in Section 2.19(d), each Lender (or Transferee) that is a “U.S. Person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver two properly completed and duly signed original copies of IRS Form W-9 or any successor form that such Lender is entitled to provide at such time, in order to qualify for an exemption from United States backup withholding requirements. If such Lender fails to deliver such forms, then the Administrative Agent may, notwithstanding Section 2.19(a), deduct and withhold from any applicable payment to such Lender or Transferee an amount equivalent to the applicable backup withholding tax imposed by the Code.

(h) If a payment made to a 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 or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

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

(j) For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 2.19, include any Swingline Lender, any Conduit Lender and any Issuing Lender.

2.20 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.20 submitted to the Borrower by any Lender which is submitted within one hundred and eighty (180) days of the incurrence of any loss or expense covered by this Section 2.20 with appropriate detail demonstrating how such amounts were derived shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.21 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.18 or 2.19(a) with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested by the Borrower or designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of eliminating or reducing amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.18 or 2.19(a); provided that the making of such filing or such designation is made on terms that, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage (except to a de minimis extent), and provided, further, that nothing in this Section 2.21 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18 or 2.19(a).

(a) The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender that (A) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.18 or 2.19(a) or (B) defaults in its obligation to make Loans hereunder, or is otherwise a Defaulting Lender with a replacement financial institution; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) prior to any such replacement, such Lender shall have taken no action under Section 2.21 that has or will eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.18 or 2.19(a), (iii) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement (whether or not then due), (iv) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.20 if any Eurodollar Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (v) the replacement financial institution, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vi) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein), (vii) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated (and thereafter, to the extent related to such earlier time), the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.18 or 2.19(a), as the case may be, (viii) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights

that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender, and (ix) in connection with the replacement of a Lender pursuant to clause (A) above, such replacement results in a reduction of the amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.18 or 2.19(a).

(b) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination pursuant to Section 10.1 (a “Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all affected Lenders, the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in this clause (b) being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, at the Borrower’s request the Administrative Agent, or a Person or Persons reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, to the extent the Administrative Agent’s consent would otherwise be required in connection with an assignment of such Loans, shall have the right (but shall have no obligation) to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lenders, and such Non-Consenting Lenders agree that they shall, upon the Borrower’s request, sell and assign to the Administrative Agent or such Person, all of the Loans and Commitments of such Non-Consenting Lenders for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by the Non-Consenting Lenders and all accrued interest and fees with respect thereto through the date of sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated at par pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement. Any such required sale and assignment shall be treated as a prepayment for purposes of Section 2.20 and the Borrower shall be liable for any amounts payable thereunder as a result of such sale and assignment. If the Proposed Change constitutes a Repricing Transaction in respect of any Loans held by such Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender the Repricing Premium (if any) as if the outstanding Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender were prepaid or repriced in their entirety in connection with a Repricing Transaction on the date of the consummation of such assignment.

2.23 Limitation on Additional Amounts, Etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 2.18 and 2.19 of this Agreement, unless the Administrative Agent or a Lender gives notice to the Borrower that it is obligated to pay an amount under any such Section within one hundred and eighty (180) days after the later of (x) the date the Lender incurs the respective increased costs, Non-Excluded Taxes, Other Taxes, loss, expense or liability, reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital or (y) the date such Lender has actual knowledge of its incurrence of the respective increased costs, Non-Excluded Taxes, Other Taxes, loss, expense or liability reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, then such Lender shall only be entitled to be compensated for such amount by the Loan Parties pursuant to Sections 2.18 and 2.19, as the case may be, to the extent the costs, Non-Excluded Taxes, Other Taxes, loss, expense or liability, reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital are incurred or suffered on or after the date which occurs one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to such Lender giving notice to the Borrower that it is obligated to pay the respective amounts pursuant to Sections 2.18 and 2.19, as the case may be; provided, that if the circumstances giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then such one hundred and eighty- (180-) day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. This Section 2.23 shall have no applicability to any Section of this Agreement other than Sections 2.18 and 2.19.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by (i) the Borrower to all Lenders of Term Loans of the applicable Class with a like maturity date or (ii) the Borrower to all Lenders with Revolving Commitments of the applicable Class with a like maturity date, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the respective Term Loans or Revolving Commitments with a like maturity date, as the case may be) and offered on the same terms to each such Lender, the Borrower is hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions with individual Lenders

that accept the terms contained in such Extension Offers to extend the maturity date of each such Lender’s Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments (the extension date of any such Extension (as defined below), the “Extended Revolving Termination Date” or “Extended Term Maturity Date”, as applicable) and otherwise modify the terms of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant Extension Offer (including, without limitation, by increasing the interest rate, premiums or fees payable in respect of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings) and/or modifying the amortization schedule, optional prepayment terms, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments in respect of such Lender’s Term Loans) (each, an “Extension”, and each group of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, in each case as so extended, as well as the Initial Term Loans and the Initial Revolving Commitments (in each case not so extended), being a separate Class; any Extended Term Loans shall constitute a separate Class of Term Loans from the Class of Term Loans from which they were converted, and any Extended Revolving Commitments shall constitute a separate Class of Revolving Commitments from the Class of Revolving Commitments from which they were converted), so long as the following terms are satisfied (or waived):

(i) except as to interest rates, fees, premiums, amortization, prepayments, AHYDO Catch-Up Payments and final maturity (which shall be determined by the Borrower and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer and which shall be no earlier than the maturity date of the Class of Revolving Commitments for which such Extension Offer was made), the Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Loan Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Revolving Commitment (an “Extending Revolving Lender”) extended pursuant to an Extension (an “Extended Revolving Commitment” and the loans made pursuant thereto, the “Extended Revolving Loans”), and the related outstandings, shall have covenants, events of default and guarantees, if not consistent with the terms of the Revolving Commitments, which shall not be materially more restrictive to the Loan Parties (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Borrower), when taken as a whole, than the terms of the Revolving Commitment unless (x) the Revolving Lenders receive the benefit of such more restrictive terms or (y) any such provisions apply after the Revolving Termination Date (as determined in good faith by the Borrower); provided that (1) the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extended Revolving Commitments and (C) repayments made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments) of Loans with respect to Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis or less with all other Revolving Commitments, (2) all Letters of Credit shall be participated on a pro rata basis or less by all Lenders with Revolving Commitments in accordance with their percentage of the Revolving Commitments, (3) the permanent repayment of Revolving Loans with respect to, and termination of, Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such Class on a non-pro rata basis as compared to any other Class with a later maturity date than such Class, (4) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Commitments and Extended Revolving Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans and (5) at no time shall there be Revolving Commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Commitments and any Initial Revolving Commitments) which have more than four different maturity dates,

(ii) except as to interest rates, fees, premiums, amortization, prepayments, AHYDO Catch-Up Payments and final maturity (which shall, subject to the immediately succeeding clauses (iii), (iv) and (v), be determined by the Borrower and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Term Loans of any Term Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Term Loans (an “Extending Term Lender”, and together with Extending Revolving Lenders, “Extending

Lenders”) extended pursuant to any Extension (“Extended Term Loans”) shall have covenants, events of default and guarantees, if not consistent with the terms of the Term Loans, which shall not be materially more restrictive to the Loan Parties (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Borrower), when taken as a whole, than the terms of the Term Loans unless (x) the Lenders of the Term Loans receive the benefit of such more restrictive terms or (y) any such provisions apply after the Latest Tranche B Maturity Date),

(iii) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Latest Tranche B Maturity Date of the Class of Term Loans for which such Extension Offer was made and at no time shall the Term Loans (including Extended Term Loans) have more than six different maturity dates,

(iv) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans extended thereby (without giving effect to amortization for periods where amortization has been eliminated as a result of a prepayment of the applicable Term Loans or amortization changes),

(v) if the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, in respect of which Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrower pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as the case may be, of such Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, 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 Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, have accepted such Extension Offer,

(vi) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing, and

(vii) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrower.

(b) With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.24, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Section 2.10 or 2.11 and (ii) no Extension Offer is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment, provided that 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 such Borrower) of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments (as applicable) of any or all applicable Classes be tendered. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.24 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, any pro rata payment or amendment section) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit or restrict any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.24.

(c) No consent of any Lender or any Agent shall be required to effectuate any Extension, other than (i) the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one or more of

its Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments (or a portion thereof) and (ii) with respect to any Extension of the Revolving Commitments, the consent of the Issuing Lender. All Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other applicable Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrower and other Loan Parties as may be necessary or advisable in order to establish new Classes in respect of Revolving Commitments or Term Loans so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary, advisable or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such new Classes, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.24. In addition, any such amendment shall provide that, to the extent consented to by the Issuing Lender, (a) with respect to any Letters of Credit the expiration date for which extend beyond the maturity date for the non-extended Revolving Commitments, participations in such Letters of Credit on such maturity date shall be reallocated from Lenders holding Revolving Commitments to Lenders holding Extended Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms of such amendment (provided that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding Revolving Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such Revolving Commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including, without limitation, the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly) and (b) limitations on drawings of Revolving Loans and issuances, extensions and amendments to Letters of Credit shall be implemented giving effect to the foregoing reallocation prior to such reallocation actually occurring to ensure that sufficient Extended Revolving Commitments are available to participate in any such Letters of Credit. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extensions the respective Loan Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the latest termination date of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments so that such maturity date is extended to the latest termination date of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments (or such later date as may be advised by local counsel to the Administrative Agent). No Lender shall be required to participate in any Extension.

(d) In connection with any Extension, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.24.

(a) The Borrower may at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date (on one or more occasions), by notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), without having to seek consent from the Lenders, request (a) one or more increases of the Tranche B Term Loans or one or more additional tranches of term loans (the “Incremental Tranche B Term Loans”), (b) one or more increases in the amount of the Revolving Commitments (each such increase, a “Revolving Commitment Increase”) and (c) in lieu of Incremental Tranche B Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments Increases, issue pari passu or junior secured loans or notes (“Secured Incremental Notes”) and/or unsecured loans or notes (“Unsecured Incremental Notes” and together with any Secured Incremental Notes, “Incremental Equivalent Debt”), together with any Incremental Tranche B Term Loans and any Revolving Commitment Increase, referred to herein as a “Credit Increase”) or any combination thereof in an aggregate amount not to exceed (x) $125,000,000 plus (y) unlimited additional amounts; provided that solely with respect to this clause (y), the Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio (determined on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to such Credit Increase

and any contemplated use of the proceeds thereof, including any prepayment of Indebtedness and any potential Acquisition or Investment in connection therewith, but assuming, solely for purpose of such calculation under this Section 2.25 and not for any other purpose hereunder, at the time of incurrence thereof (1) that a borrowing of the maximum amount of Incremental Loans available thereunder after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments, (2) that all Loans under such Incremental Commitments are Consolidated First Lien Debt and (3) excluding, for purposes of clause (b) of Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio, the cash proceeds from the borrowing of the proposed Credit Increase) shall not exceed 4.50 to 1.00; provided, however, that at the option of the Borrower any such unfunded Credit Increase may instead be tested at the time of the initial funding thereof in lieu of testing at the time of entering into such unfunded commitment plus (z) the amount of any voluntary prepayments of Term Loans and voluntary reductions of Revolving Commitment to the extent such voluntary prepayment or voluntary reduction is not funded with long term indebtedness (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the proceeds of any Credit Increase); provided further that upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment referred to below, no Event of Default shall exist and at the time that any such Credit Increase is made (and immediately after giving effect thereto); provided that if such Credit Increase is executed in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or other permitted Investment, at the option of the lenders providing such Credit Increase, the documentation relating thereto may modify such restrictions consistent with customary “SunGard” provisions; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, the Incremental Tranche B Term Loans, Revolving Commitment Increase and Incremental Equivalent Debt may be incurred pursuant to clause (y) prior to the utilization of any amounts under clauses (x) or (z) above even if incurred substantially contemporaneously therewith and the amounts incurred pursuant to clauses (x) or (z) shall not be included in the calculation of clause (y); provided further that any such Indebtedness incurred pursuant to clauses (x) and (z) above are hereinafter referred to as the “Unrestricted Incremental First Lien Indebtedness”; it being understood and agreed that (I) the Borrower shall designate any such Indebtedness as Unrestricted Incremental First Lien Indebtedness on or prior to the date of such incurrence by notice to the Administrative Agent and (II) the Borrower may redesignate any such Indebtedness originally designated as Unrestricted Incremental First Lien Indebtedness if, at the time of such redesignation, the Borrower would be permitted to incur under this Section 2.25(a) the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness being so redesignated (for purposes of clarity, with any such redesignation having the effect of increasing the Borrower’s ability to incur Unrestricted Incremental First Lien Indebtedness as of the date of such redesignation by the amount of such Indebtedness so redesignated)).

(b) Each Credit Increase shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000 (provided that such amount may be less than $5,000,000 on no more than two occasions if such amount is not less than $1,000,000 on each such occasion, and such amount may be a lesser amount if such amount represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth above).

(c) (i) The Incremental Tranche B Term Loans may rank pari passu in right of security with the Revolving Loans and the Tranche B Term Loans (it being understood and agreed that any such Incremental Tranche B Term Loans may be secured solely by the Collateral and may be guaranteed solely by the Guarantors), (ii) the Secured Incremental Notes may rank pari passu or junior in right of security with the Revolving Loans and the Tranche B Term Loans and (iii) the Unsecured Incremental Notes shall be unsecured; provided with respect to any Secured Incremental Notes, (x) such Secured Incremental Notes shall be secured solely by the Collateral and (y) an intercreditor agreement shall be entered into with the Representative of such providers of such Secured Incremental Notes substantially consistent with the terms set forth in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement or the Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable, and (ii) if guaranteed, shall be guaranteed solely by the Guarantors.

(d) The Incremental Tranche B Term Loans or Incremental Equivalent Debt, as the case may be, (i) shall not mature earlier than the Tranche B Maturity Date and shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity (pursuant to such amortization schedules as may be determined by the Borrower

and the lenders thereof) that is no shorter than the then-remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Tranche B Term Loans calculated without giving effect to prepayments of any amortization thereof, (ii) except as set forth above, all other terms of such Incremental Tranche B Term Loans if not consistent with the terms of the existing Tranche B Term Loan Facility shall be as agreed between the Borrower and the lenders providing such Credit Increase, (iii) will accrue interest at rates determined by the Borrower and the lenders providing such Credit Increase; provided that (with respect to any Incremental Tranche B Term Loans incurred on a pari passu basis within 12 months of the Closing Date), the all-in yield (which shall be determined by including interest rate margins, original issue discount (based on a four-year average life to maturity), upfront fees (which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of original issue discount) or LIBOR/ABR floors (but only to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor in the Initial Tranche B Term Loans would cause an increase in the interest rate then in effect thereunder, and in such case, the interest rate floor (but not the interest rate margin) applicable to the Initial Tranche B Term Loans shall be increased to the extent of such differential between interest rate floors), but excluding arrangement, underwriting, structuring, commitment, amendment or similar fees (regardless of whether paid in whole or in part to any or all lenders) and other fees not paid generally to all lenders of such indebtedness) applicable to any Incremental Tranche B Term Loans will not be more than 0.50% higher than the corresponding all-in yield (determined on the same basis) for the Initial Tranche B Term Loans, unless the interest rate margins (or LIBOR/ABR floors) with respect to the Initial Tranche B Term Loan is increased by an amount equal to the difference between the all-in yield with respect to the Incremental Tranche B Term Loans and the corresponding all-in yield on the Initial Tranche B Term Loans minus 0.50%.

(e) Incremental Tranche B Term Loans may be made, and Revolving Commitment Increases may be provided, by any existing Lender or by any other bank or other financial institution (any such other bank or other financial institution being called an “Additional Lender”), provided that in the case of a Revolving Commitment Increase, each Issuing Lender shall have consented (not to be unreasonably withheld) to such Additional Lender’s providing such Revolving Commitment Increases, if such consent would be required under Section 10.6 for an assignment of Revolving Commitments to such Additional Lender. Commitments in respect of Credit Increases (other than in connection with Incremental Equivalent Debt) shall become Commitments (or in the case of a Revolving Commitment Increase to be provided by an existing Revolving Lender, an increase in such Lender’s applicable Revolving Commitment) under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by Holdings, the Borrower, each Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender, if any and the Administrative Agent. An Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments 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 effect the provisions and intent of this Section 2.25 and the application of the proceeds thereof. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Credit Increases, unless it so agrees. Upon each increase in the Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.25, the participations held by the Revolving Lenders in the Revolving L/C Exposure and Swingline Loans immediately prior to such increase will be reallocated so as to be held by the Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Percentages after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase. The Borrower may use the proceeds of each Credit Increase for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement unless otherwise agreed in connection with such Credit Increase. Any Incremental Tranche B Term Loans, Revolving Commitment Increase and Incremental Equivalent Debt made pursuant to this Section 2.25 shall be evidenced by one or more entries in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent. In connection with the foregoing, the extent reasonably requested by the Lenders providing the Credit Increase, the Administrative Agent shall receive board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 5.1, and, to the extent required by Section 6.9, legal opinions consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent).

(f) This Section 2.25 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.10, Section 2.11, Section 2.17, Section 10.1 and Section 10.7 to the contrary. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby (i) agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the incurrence of Indebtedness expressly provided for in this Section 2.25 and (ii) waive the requirements of any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit the incurrence of any Indebtedness expressly provided for by this Section 2.25. Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document, the Loan Documents may be amended by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, if necessary or reasonably advisable, to provide for terms applicable to any Incremental Tranche B Term Loans, Revolving Commitment Increase and Incremental Equivalent Debt.

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

(a) The commitment fee under Section 2.8(a) shall cease to accrue on the commitment of such Lender so long as it is a Defaulting Lender (except to the extent it is payable to the Issuing Lender pursuant to clause (c)(v) below);

(b) If any Swingline Exposure or Revolving L/C Exposure exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) all or any part of such Swingline Exposure and Revolving L/C Exposure shall be re-allocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Percentages but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Loans plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and Revolving L/C Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Commitments and (y) such reallocation does not cause the Revolving Extensions of Credit of any non-Defaulting Lender to exceed the Revolving Commitment of such non-Defaulting Lender;

(ii) if the reallocation with respect to Revolving L/C Exposure described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrower shall within five (5) Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent (or such longer period as Administrative Agent may agree), cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) for so long as such Revolving L/C Exposure is outstanding;

(iii) if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure is cash collateralized pursuant to clause (ii) above or otherwise, at 105% of the face amount thereof pursuant to terms reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Lender, Borrower shall not be required to pay the Letter of Credit participation fee with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure so long as it is cash collateralized;

(iv) if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure is reallocated to the non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to clause (i) above, then the Letter of Credit participation fee with respect to such portion shall be allocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their Revolving Percentages; or

(v) if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.26(b), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lender or any Lender hereunder, the Letter of Credit participation fee payable with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Lender until such Revolving L/C Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated;

(c) so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateralized in accordance with Section 2.26, and participations in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Percentages (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein); and

(d) any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder may, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated non-interest-bearing account and, subject to any applicable Requirements of Law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder, (ii) second, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender hereunder, (iii) third, to the funding of any Loan or the funding or cash collateralization of any participation in any Swingline Loan or Letter of Credit 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, (iv) fourth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and Borrower, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, (v) fifth, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement and (vi) sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is (x) a prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans or Reimbursement Obligations which a Defaulting Lender has funded its participation obligations and (y) made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 are satisfied, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Loans of, and Reimbursement Obligations owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any Loans, or Reimbursement Obligations owed to, any Defaulting Lender.

(e) In the event that the Administrative Agent, Borrower, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and Revolving L/C Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Revolving Percentage and the Administrative Agent shall release any cash collateral previously required by Section 2.26. The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.26 are in addition to other rights and remedies that Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender and the non-Defaulting Lenders may have against such Defaulting Lender. The arrangements permitted or required by this Section 2.26 shall be permitted under this Agreement, notwithstanding any limitation on Liens or the pro rata sharing provisions or otherwise.

(a) On one or more occasions after the Closing Date, the Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or Additional Refinancing Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of all or any portion of the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans (or unused Revolving Commitments) then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this Section 2.28(a) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Refinancing Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans), in the form of Refinancing Term Loans, Refinancing Term Commitments, Refinancing Revolving Commitments or Refinancing Revolving Loans pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.28 or otherwise, (1) the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Refinancing Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of the Refinancing Revolving Commitments and (C) repayment made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments (subject to clause (3) below)) of Loans with respect to Refinancing Revolving Commitments after the date of obtaining any Refinancing Revolving Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments, (2) all Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Commitments in accordance with their percentage of the Revolving Commitments, (3) the permanent repayment of Revolving Loans with respect to, and termination of, Refinancing Revolving Commitments after the date of obtaining any Refinancing Revolving Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such class on a better than a pro rata basis as compared to any other class with a later maturity date than such class and (4) assignments and participations of Refinancing Revolving Commitments and Refinancing Revolving Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans. For the avoidance of doubt, any prepayment in connection with a Refinancing Amendment shall be accompanied by the Repricing Premium, if any is applicable.

(b) Each issuance of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness under Section 2.28(a) shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (x) not less than $10,000,000 and (y) an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

(c) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto and (ii) make such other changes to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents consistent with the provisions and intent of Section 10.1 (without the consent of the Required Lenders called for therein) and (iii) effect such other amendments 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 effect the provisions of this Section 2.28, and the Required Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such Refinancing Amendment.

(d) This Section 2.28 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.10, Section 2.11, Section 2.17, Section 10.1 and Section 10.7 to the contrary.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (a) each Issuing Lender agrees to issue letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower on any Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period (in the case of a Revolving Letter of Credit) or the Institutional L/C Period (in the case of an Institutional Letter of Credit), in each case in such form as may be reasonably approved from time to time by such Issuing Lender; provided that such Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the Revolving L/C Exposure would exceed the Revolving L/C Commitment, (ii) the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed the Total Revolving Commitments, (iii) the amount of funds deposited in the Institutional L/C Collateral Account at such time would not be at least 105% of the Institutional L/C Exposure or (iv) any Institutional Letter of Credit would be issued by an Issuing Lender other than Barclays or an affiliate thereof. Each Letter of Credit shall (A) be denominated in Dollars and (B) expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (y) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date (in the case of a Revolving Letter of Credit) or the Tranche B Maturity Date (in the case of an Institutional Letter of Credit), provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above).

(c) For purposes hereof, (i) Letters of Credit shall at all times and from time to time be deemed to be Institutional Letters of Credit in the amount specified in the definition of Institutional Letters of Credit and be deemed to be Revolving Letters of Credit only to the extent, and in an amount by which, the aggregate amount of outstanding Letters of Credit exceeds such amount specified in clause (a) of the definition of Institutional Letters of Credit, (ii) drawings under any Letter of Credit shall be deemed to have been made under the Revolving Letter of Credit for so long as, and to the extent that, there are any undrawn Revolving Letters of Credit outstanding (and thereafter shall be deemed to have been made under Institutional Letters of Credit) and (iii) any Letter of Credit that expires or terminates will be deemed to be a Revolving Letter of Credit, for so long as, and to the extent that, there are outstanding Revolving Letters of Credit immediately prior to such expiration or termination; provided, that, at any time during which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (A) Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Revolving Letters of Credit and Institutional Letters of Credit, (B) drawings under Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been made under Revolving Letters of Credit and Institutional Letters of Credit and (C) any Letter of Credit that expires or terminates shall be deemed to be a Revolving Letter of Credit and an Institutional Letter of Credit, in each case pro rata based upon (1) the Revolving L/C Exposure at the time such Event of Default occurred and (2) the Institutional L/C Exposure at the time such Event of Default occurred. To the extent necessary to implement the foregoing, the identification of a Letter of Credit as a Revolving Letter of Credit or an Institutional Letter of Credit may change from time to time and a portion of a Letter of Credit may be deemed to be an Institutional Letter of Credit and the remainder be deemed to be a Revolving Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire face amount of any Letter of Credit with an expiration date after the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date or that is issued by an Issuing Lender other than Barclays, or an affiliate thereof, shall at all times be deemed to be an Institutional Letter of Credit.

(d) An Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if such issuance would conflict with, or cause such Issuing Lender or any Revolving Lender to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law.

3.2 Procedure for Issuance of Letter of Credit. The Borrower may from time to time request that an Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to such Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein an Application therefor, completed to the reasonable satisfaction of such Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as such Issuing Lender may reasonably request including in the case of letters of credit issued by Barclays Bank PLC, an LC Extension Request substantially in the form of Exhibit H-4. Upon receipt of any Application, the applicable Issuing Lender will process such Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall the Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than three (3) Business Days after its receipt of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by the Issuing Lender and the Borrower. The applicable Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly following the issuance thereof. The applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent, which shall in turn promptly furnish to the Lenders, notice of the issuance of each Letter of Credit (including the amount thereof).

(a) The Borrower will pay a participation fee on all outstanding Revolving Letters of Credit at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Loans under the Revolving Facility, shared ratably among the Revolving Lenders and payable quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee of 0.125% per annum on the face amount of each Revolving Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender payable quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date. In addition the following fees will also be charged: an issuance fee of $500.00 per Revolving Letter of Credit, drawing fees of $250.00 per draw, amendment fees of $200.00 per amendment and $250.00 for renewals on each anniversary of a “evergreen” Revolving Letter of Credit.

(b) In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrower reimburse each Issuing Lender for its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with, issuing, negotiating, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender.

3.4 L/C Participations. Each Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each Revolving L/C Participant, and, to induce each Issuing Lender to issue Revolving Letters of Credit, each Revolving L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from such Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions set forth below, for such Revolving L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such Revolving L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage in such Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under and in respect of each Revolving Letter of Credit and the amount of each draft paid by such Issuing Lender thereunder. Each Revolving L/C Participant agrees with each Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid under any Revolving Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender for which the Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Revolving L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender upon demand at such Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such Revolving L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed. Each Revolving L/C Participant’s obligation to pay such amount shall

be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Revolving L/C Participant may have against the Issuing Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Revolving L/C Participant or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If any amount required to be paid by any Revolving L/C Participant to an Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 3.4 in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under any Revolving Letter of Credit is paid to such Issuing Lender within three (3) Business Days after the date such payment is due, such Revolving L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (A) such amount, times (B) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Issuing Lender, times (C) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any Revolving L/C Participant pursuant to this Section 3.4 is not made available to the applicable Issuing Lender by such Revolving L/C Participant within three (3) Business Days after the date such payment is due, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility. A certificate of the applicable Issuing Lender submitted to any Revolving L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 3.4 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Whenever, at any time after an Issuing Lender has made payment under any Revolving Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with this Section 3.4, such Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Revolving Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by such Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, such Issuing Lender will distribute to such Revolving L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by such Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by such Issuing Lender, such Revolving L/C Participant shall return to such Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Lender to it.

3.5 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower. If any draft is paid under any Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender with respect to such draft paid by the Issuing Lender for the amount of (a) the draft so paid and (b) any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by such Issuing Lender in connection with such payment, not later than 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice of such draft, if such notice is received on such day prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, or (ii) if clause (i) above does not apply, the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice. Each such payment shall be made to the applicable Issuing Lender at its address for notices referred to herein in Dollars and in immediately available funds. If any draft is paid under any Letter of Credit, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender in full on the same day that such draft is paid, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest for each day from and including the date on which such draft is paid to but excluding the date that the Borrower makes reimbursement in full, at (a) in the case of a Revolving L/C Disbursement, the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility and (b) in the case of an Institutional L/C Disbursement, the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans under the Tranche B Term Facility (determined without regard to whether the Tranche B Term Facility is in effect); provided that, if the Borrower does not make reimbursement in full on or prior to the second (2nd) Business Day following the date of the applicable drawing, then Section 2.14(c) shall apply; provided that, with respect to Institutional Letters of Credit, the Borrower may authorize the Issuing Lender to draw such payment from the Institutional L/C Collateral Account. If the Issuing Lender with

respect to an Institutional Letter of Credit shall not have received from the Borrower the payment required to be made by this Section 3.5 with respect to any Institutional Letter of Credit within the time specified in this Section, such Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the unreimbursed amount of an Institutional L/C Disbursement. In each such event, the Borrower hereby authorizes and directs the Issuing Lender with respect to an Institutional Letter of Credit to withdraw from the Institutional L/C Collateral Account an amount equal to such unreimbursed amount. The Administrative Agent shall promptly upon request advise the Issuing Lender with respect to an Institutional Letter of Credit of the aggregate amount of any such permitted withdrawal, and such Issuing Lender shall promptly advise the Administrative Agent of the amount of any such reimbursement it shall effect with the proceeds of any such withdrawal. Any amounts received by the Administrative Agent thereafter pursuant to this Section 3.5 in respect of an unreimbursed amount of an Institutional L/C Disbursement under an Institutional Letter of Credit will be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Institutional Collateral Account (it being understood that, thereafter, such amounts will be available to reimburse the Issuing Lender with respect to an Institutional Letter of Credit in accordance with this Section 3.5).

3.6 Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower may have or have had against any Issuing Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person. The Borrower also agrees with each Issuing Lender that such Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee. An Issuing Lender shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender. The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by an Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not result in any liability of such Issuing Lender to the Borrower.

3.7 Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the date and amount thereof. The responsibility of an Issuing Lender to the Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are substantially in conformity with such Letter of Credit.

3.8 Applications. To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 3, the provisions of this Section 3 shall apply.

3.9 Obligations of Certain Issuing Lenders. Each Issuing Lender that is not the same Person as the Person serving as the Administrative Agent shall notify the Administrative Agent of (a) the amount and expiration date of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender prior to the date of issuance thereof, (b) any amendment or modification of any such Letter of Credit prior to the time of such amendment or modification and (c) any termination, surrender, cancellation or expiry of any such Letter of Credit promptly upon the occurrence thereof.

To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and issue or participate in the Letters of Credit, Holdings and the Borrower hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that:

(a) The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at September 30, 2013, and unaudited pro forma statement of operations of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the twelve-month period then ended (including the notes thereto) (the “Pro Forma Financial Statements”), copies of which have heretofore been furnished to each Lender, have been prepared giving effect to the Transactions and all other transactions that would be required to be given pro forma effect by Regulation S-X (and such other adjustments as have been agreed to by the Joint Bookrunners), as if such transactions had occurred on September 30, 2013 (in the case of such unaudited pro forma balance sheet) or at the beginning of such twelve-month period (in the case of such unaudited statement of operations). The Pro Forma Financial Statements have been prepared in good faith by the Borrower, and present fairly in all material respects on a pro forma basis the estimated financial position and results of operations of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at September 30, 2013, and for such period then ended, assuming that such transactions had actually occurred at such date or at the beginning of such period, as the case may be.

(b) The audited consolidated balance sheets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2013, and the related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the fiscal years ended on such dates, reported on by and accompanied by an unqualified report from Deloitte & Touche, LLP, as the case may be, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at such date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the respective fiscal years then ended. All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by the aforementioned firm of accountants and disclosed therein).

4.2 No Change. Since the Closing Date, there has been no development or event that has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Each Group Member (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the power and authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other organization and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law, except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.4 Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to obtain extensions of credit hereunder. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary

organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to authorize the extensions of credit on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No material consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the Transactions, except (i) consents, authorizations, filings and notices described in Schedule 4.4, which consents, authorizations, filings and notices have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and (ii) the filings referred to in Section 4.19. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law) and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

4.5 No Legal Bar. The Transactions will not violate any material Requirement of Law or any material Contractual Obligation of any Group Member and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created by the Security Documents).

4.6 Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.6, no litigation, or to the knowledge of Holdings or Borrower, no investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the best knowledge of Holdings or the Borrower, threatened by or against any Group Member or against any of their respective properties or revenues (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby and (b) that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.7 No Default. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

4.8 Ownership of Property; Liens. Each Group Member has marketable title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its real property, and marketable title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its material other property, and none of such property is subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 7.3. As of the Closing Date, set forth on Schedule 4.8 is a complete and correct list of all real property with a fair market value of more than $1,000,000 as reasonably determined in good faith by the Borrower (including street address) (other than condominiums or co-ops) located in the United States and owned by any Group Member.

4.9 Licenses; Intellectual Property. Except as in the aggregate would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Group Member has all necessary licenses, permits, franchises, rights to participate in, or the benefit of valid agreements to participate in material Third Party Payor Programs and other rights necessary for the conduct of its business and for the intended use of its properties and assets to the extent necessary to ensure no material interruption in cash flow. Each Group Member owns, or is licensed to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted except to the extent that a failure would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No material claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person against a Group Member challenging or questioning the use of any Intellectual Property that is material to the business of

the Group Members or the validity or effectiveness of any such Intellectual Property, nor does Holdings or the Borrower have knowledge of any valid basis for any such claim. Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the use of Intellectual Property by each Group Member does not infringe on the rights of any Person in any material respect.

4.10 Taxes. Except for any failure, lien, filing or claim, as applicable, that would not be reasonably expected to, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect: (i) each Group Member has, and with respect to any taxable period during which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a member of a consolidated, unitary, combined or similar tax group in which NMH Holdings, Inc. (or any direct or indirect parent of NMH Holdings, Inc.) is the common parent, NMH Holdings, Inc. (or such direct or indirect parent of NMH Holdings, Inc.) has, filed or caused to be filed all tax returns that are required to be filed and has paid all taxes (including any interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto) due and payable (whether or not shown on a tax return) and any assessments made against it or any of its property and all other taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority (other than any tax the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the relevant Group Member); (ii) no tax Lien has been filed (other than Permitted Liens); and (iii) no claim is being asserted with respect to any such tax, fee or other charge.

4.11 Federal Regulations.

4.12 Labor Matters. Except as, in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: (a) there are no strikes or other labor disputes against any Group Member pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings or the Borrower, threatened; (b) hours worked by and payment made to employees of each Group Member have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Requirement of Law dealing with such matters; and (c) all payments due from any Group Member on account of employee health and welfare insurance have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of the relevant Group Member.

4.13 ERISA. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) neither a Reportable Event nor a failure to satisfy the minimum funding standard (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan, and each Plan during such five-year period has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, (ii) no termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five-year period and (iii) the present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by a material amount. To the best of the Borrower’s knowledge, neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a material liability under ERISA, and to the best of the Borrower’s knowledge, neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to any material liability under ERISA if the Borrower or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made. No such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or Insolvent which would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

4.15 Subsidiaries. Attached hereto as Schedule 4.15 is an organization chart of each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date.

(f) the Properties and all operations at the Properties are in compliance, and within all applicable statute-of-limitations periods have been in compliance, with all applicable Environmental Laws, and there is no contamination at, under or about the Properties or violation of any Environmental Law with respect to the Properties or the Business; and

(g) no Group Member has assumed, contractually or by operation of law, any liability of any other Person under Environmental Laws.

4.18 Accuracy of Information, Etc. No written factual information with respect to any Group Member contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other factual document, certificate or statement (other than (i) any projections, pro formas, budgets, estimates or other information of a forward looking nature with respect to any Group Member, (ii) information of a general economic nature or industry data or (iii) third party industry data which the Borrower has not independently verified and as to which the Borrower makes no representation) furnished by or by Persons directed on behalf of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, when taken as a whole, contained as of the date such statement, information, document or certificate was so furnished, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made and after giving effect to any supplements thereof. The projections and pro forma financial information contained in the materials referenced above were, and the projections hereafter delivered, when delivered, will be, based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of each Loan Party to be reasonable at the time made and no Loan Party knows as of the Closing Date any fact making such estimates and assumptions no longer true in any material respects, it being recognized by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact, such financial information is subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Group Members, no assurance can be given that any particular projections will be realized and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount.

(a) The Guarantee and Security Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, legal, valid and enforceable (subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights) security interests in the Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof. In the case of the Pledged Stock as defined and described in the Guarantee and Security Agreement, when stock certificates representing such Pledged Stock are delivered to the Administrative Agent together with the necessary endorsements, and in the case of the other Collateral described in the any of the Security Documents, when financing statements and other filings specified on Schedule 4.19 in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 4.19, the Guarantee and Security Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds thereof, as security for their respective Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Security Agreement) to the extent a Lien on such Collateral (other than the Pledged Stock) can be perfected pursuant to such financing statements and such other filings, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except, in the case of Collateral other than Pledged Stock, Permitted Liens).

then, and in any such event, (I) other than (x) an event described in paragraph (c) of this Section 8 in respect of a default of performance or compliance with the covenant under Section 7.1 or (y) an event with respect to the Borrower described in clause (i) or (ii) of paragraph (f) of this Section 8; provided that in the case of clause (x), the actions hereinafter described will be permitted to occur only (A) following the expiration of the ability to effectuate the Cure Right if such Cure Right has not been so exercised and (B) if the express conditions of the last proviso contained in Section 8(c) have been satisfied, and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, (A) if such event is an Event of Default specified in clause (y) above with respect to the Borrower, automatically the Commitments shall immediately terminate and the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all amounts of Reimbursement Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) shall immediately become due and payable, and (B) if such event is any other Event of Default (other than as described in clause (x) above), either or both of the following actions may be taken: (i) with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower declare the Commitments to be terminated forthwith, whereupon the Commitments shall immediately terminate; and (ii) with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all amounts of Reimbursement Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable and (II) in the case of an event under paragraph (c) of this Section 8 in respect of a failure to observe or perform the covenant under Section 7.1 (provided that the actions hereinafter described will be permitted to occur only following the expiration of the ability to effectuate the Cure Right if such Cure Right has not been so exercised), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Majority Facility Lenders with respect to the Revolving Facility may, and at the request of the Majority Facility Lenders with respect to the Revolving Facility shall, by notice to the Borrower, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times (except the following actions may not be taken until the ability to exercise the Cure Right under Section 8 has expired): (i) terminate the Revolving Commitments, and thereupon the Revolving Commitments shall terminate immediately, and (ii) declare the Revolving Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter, during the continuance of such event, be declared to be due and payable), and thereupon the principal of the Revolving Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrower accrued hereunder, shall become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower (to the extent permitted by applicable law). With respect to all Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit. Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of Reimbursement Obligations in respect of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other Obligations. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all Reimbursement Obligations shall have been satisfied and all other Obligations shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to the Borrower (or such other Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto). Except as expressly provided above in this Section, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

Solely for the purposes of determining whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred under paragraphs (e), (f) or (h) of this Section 8, any reference in any such paragraph to any Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed not to include any such Restricted Subsidiaries affected by any event or circumstance referred to in such paragraph that did not, in the aggregate when taken together with any other similarly situated Restricted Subsidiaries, as of the last day of the fiscal quarter of the Borrower most recently ended, have aggregate assets with a value equal to or greater than 7.5% of Total Assets of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of such date, based on the consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of such date.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 8, in the event that the Borrower fails to comply with the requirements of the covenant under Section 7.1 at the end of any fiscal quarter, until the expiration of the twentieth (20th) day subsequent to the date that the Compliance Certificate is required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.2(b), in respect of the period ending on the last day of such quarter, any net cash proceeds of any common equity contribution made, directly or indirectly to the Borrower, or any net cash proceeds of any issuance of Permitted Capital Stock of the Borrower, in each case following the Closing Date and/or following the end of such fiscal quarter and on or prior to such twentieth (20th) day, in each case in an aggregate amount equal to the amount necessary to cure the relevant failure to comply with such covenant may, at the election of the Borrower be included in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA for purposes of determining compliance with such covenant (the “Cure Right”), and upon the earlier of (x) the delivery by the Borrower of written notice to the Administrative Agent that it intends to exercise the Cure Right hereunder (it being understood that to the extent such notice is provided in advance of delivery of a Compliance Certificate for the applicable period, the amount of such net cash proceeds that are received as the Cure Amount may be lower than specified in such notice to the extent that the amount necessary to cure any Event of Default under Section 7.1 is less than the full amount of any originally designated amount) and (y) receipt by the Borrower of such cash proceeds (the “Cure Amount”), such covenant shall be recalculated giving effect to the following pro forma statements:

(i) solely for purpose of determining the existence of an Event of Default under Section 7.1, Consolidated EBITDA for the fiscal quarter of the Borrower for which such certificate is required to be delivered shall be increased by an amount equal to the Cure Amount, and such increase shall be effective for all periods that include the fiscal quarter of the Borrower for which such Cure Right was exercised and not for any other purpose under this Agreement; and

(ii) if, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations (but not giving effect to any payment of Indebtedness made with such Cure Amount (when calculating compliance with Section 7.1 at the end of such (but no other) fiscal quarter), the Borrower shall then be in compliance with the requirements of the covenant under Section 7.1 at the end of such fiscal quarter, the Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of the covenant under Section 7.1 as of the last day of such fiscal quarter with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or Default or Event of Default of the covenant under Section 7.1 that had occurred shall be deemed cured for this purpose under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) if the Borrower has delivered written notice pursuant to clause (x) above; provided that if the Cure Amount is not received by the Borrower prior to such twentieth (20th) day, such Default or Event of Default shall be deemed reinstated.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) in each four-fiscal-quarter period of the Borrower there shall be at least two (2) fiscal quarters in which the Cure Right is not exercised, (ii) the Cure Right shall not be exercised more than five (5) times during the term of this Agreement, (iii) the Cure

Amount shall not exceed the amount required to cause the Borrower to be in compliance with the covenant under Section 7.1, and (iv) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender or Secured Party shall exercise any remedy under the Loan Documents or applicable law on the basis of an Event of Default caused by the failure to comply with Section 7.1 until after the Borrower’s ability to cure has lapsed and Borrower has not exercised the Cure Right. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Cure Amount received pursuant to any exercise of the Cure Right shall be disregarded for all other purposes.

9.1 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Barclays, to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes such Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Section 9.1 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, and neither Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

9.2 Rights as a Lender. Each person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include each person serving as an Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent:

(a) shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that such Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its judgment or the judgment of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Requirements of Law; and

(c) shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the person serving as such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (x) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary,

or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.2) or (y) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to such Agent by Borrower, a Lender or the Issuing Lender.

No Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 5 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent may use an outside service provider for the tracking of all UCC financing statements required to be filed pursuant to the Loan Documents and notification to the Administrative Agent of, among other things, the upcoming lapse or expiration thereof, and that any such service provider will be deemed to be acting at the request and on behalf of Borrower and the other Loan Parties. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by any such service provider.

9.4 Reliance by Agent. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with such advice.

9.5 Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through, or delegate any and all such rights and powers to, any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such subagent and to the Related Parties of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent.

(a) Each Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Is-suing Lender and Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the Borrower’s consent, 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 Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above provided that if the Agent shall notify Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security as nominee until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through an Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuing Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 9 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring 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 Agent was acting as Agent.

(b) The Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right with the Borrower’s consent 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 Issuing Lender and/or the Swingline Lender gives notice of its resignation, then the Borrower may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, appoint a successor Issuing Lender and/or the Swingline Lender meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Issuing Lender and/or the Swingline Lender shall notify Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Issuing Lender and/or the Swingline Lender shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through an Issuing Lender and/or the Swingline Lender shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Administrative Agent directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Issuing Lender and/or the Swingline Lender as provided for above in this paragraph (except as to already outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans, as to which the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender shall continue in such capacities until the Revolving L/C Exposure relating thereto shall be reduced to zero and such Swingline Loans shall have been repaid, as applicable, or until the successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to the roles of Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender in accordance with the next sentence and perform the actions required by the next sentence). Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Issuing Lender and/or Swingline Lender hereunder, unless the Administrative Agent and/or such successor gives notice to Borrower otherwise, (i) such successor shall succeed to and

become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender and (ii) the successor Issuing Lender shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Lender to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit. At the time any such resignation of the Issuing Lender shall become effective, Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the retiring Issuing Lender.

9.7 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and the Issuing Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender further represents and warrants that it has had the opportunity to review each document made available to it in connection with this Agreement and has acknowledged and accepted the terms and conditions applicable to the recipients thereof. Each Lender and the Issuing Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

9.8 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20, each Lender shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within thirty (30) days after demand therefor, any and all taxes, interest, additions to tax and penalties and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not property executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.8. The agreements in this Section 9.8 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 9.8, include any Swingline Lender, any Conduit Lender and any Issuing Lender.

(a) In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Agents, the Co-Documentation Agents, the Syndication Agents, the Lenders and the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents, the Co-Documentation Agents, the Syndication Agents, the Lenders and the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners, on the other hand, (B) each Loan Party has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) each Loan Party is capable of evaluating, and understands

(b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Joint Bookrunners, Joint Lead Arrangers, Syndication Agent or Co-Documentation Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Lender hereunder.

9.10 Enforcement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent, or as the Required Lenders may require or otherwise direct, for the benefit of all the Lenders and the Issuing Lender; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of this Agreement, or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any bankruptcy or insolvency law.

9.11 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. Each of the Lenders (on behalf of itself, its Affiliates and Related Parties (and in its capacity as a Lender under any Specified Swap Agreement) and the Issuing Lender irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion,

(a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon the payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent obligations), termination or expiration of the Commitments of the Lenders to make any Loan or to issue any Letter of Credit and termination or cash collateralization, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, of all Letters of Credit, (ii) that is sold or transferred or to be sold or transferred as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document to a Person that is not a Loan Party, (iii) that constitutes “excluded collateral” (as described in Section 3 of the Guarantee and Security Agreement), (iv) if the property subject to such a Lien is owned by a Guarantor upon release of such Guarantor from its Guarantee Obligation, (v) upon the designation of a Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, (vi) if the property subject to such Lien is located in an area that has been identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as a “Special Flood Hazard Area” or other area having

(b) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under this Agreement and other Loan Documents if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary (including upon the designation of a Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary) or a Person required to be a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder; and

(c) to (x) subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted hereunder or (y) to enter into intercreditor agreements.

In each case as specified in this Section 9.11, 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 and this Section 9.11.

(b) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 10.5 to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (such indemnity shall be effective whether or not the related losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses are incurred or asserted by any party hereto or any third party); provided that (i) the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Swingline Lender or Issuing Lender in connection with such capacity and (ii) such indemnity for the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lender shall not include losses incurred by the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lender due to one or more Lenders defaulting in their obligations to purchase participations of Swingline Exposure under Section 2.7 or Revolving L/C Exposure under Section 3.4 or to make Revolving Loans under Section 3.4 (it being understood that this proviso shall not affect the Swingline Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s rights against any Defaulting Lender). The obligations of the Lenders under this paragraph (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.17. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit, outstanding Tranche B Term Loans and unused Total Revolving Commitments and the Institutional L/C Exposure at the time.

(c) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 9 to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Secured Obligations arising under Specified Swap Agreements with Lenders unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Secured Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request from the applicable Lender.

Except as provided in Section 2.24 with respect to an Extension Offer, in Section 2.25 with respect to any Incremental Facility Amendment, in Section 2.28 with respect to any Refinancing Amendments, in Section 10.20 or as otherwise specifically provided herein, neither this Agreement, any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1. The Required Lenders and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) except as provided for hereunder with respect to Refinancing Amendments or Section 2.24, forgive the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, extend the scheduled date of any amortization payment (but not prepayment) in respect of any Tranche B Term Loan, reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder (except (x) in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Required Lenders) and (y) that any amendment or modification of defined terms used in the financial covenants in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or fees for purposes of this clause (i)) or extend

the scheduled date of any payment thereof, or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Lender’s Revolving Commitment, in each case without the written consent of each Lender (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default or of any mandatory reductions of Commitments shall not constitute an increase of Commitment of any Lender and that an increase in the available portion of any Commitment of any Lender shall not constitute an increase in the Commitment of any Lender) directly and adversely affected thereby; (ii) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this Section 10.1 without the written consent of such Lender; (iii) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders without the written consent of all Lenders (it being understood that, other than as specifically provided in this Agreement, including pursuant to (w) this Section 10.1 with respect to Replacement Tranche B Term Loans, (x) any Incremental Facility Amendment (the consent requirements for which are set forth in Section 2.25), (y) a Refinancing Amendment (the consent requirements for which are set forth in Section 2.28) and (z) an Extension Offer pursuant to Section 2.24, with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders or a particular Class of Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Term Loans and Revolving Commitments on the Closing Date), (iv) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release all or substantially all of the Loan Parties (or Loan Parties owning all or substantially all of the Collateral) from their obligations under the Guarantee and Security Agreement (except in accordance with its terms), in each case without the written consent of all Lenders (it being understood that any subordination of a lien permitted hereunder shall not constitute a release of a lien under this section and the granting of any pari passu liens in connection with the incurrence of debt or the granting of liens otherwise permitted hereunder from time to time (including pursuant to amendments) shall not constitute a release of liens); (v) amend, waive or otherwise modify any term or provision of 7.1, Section 8 (solely as relates to Section 7.1) or the definition of “Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio” (or any of its component definitions (as such in such Section but not as used in other Sections of this Agreement)) without the consent of the Majority Facility Lenders with respect to the Revolving Commitments, (vi) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Majority Facility Lenders with respect to any Facility without the written consent of all Lenders under such Facility; (vii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 9 without the written consent of the Administrative Agent; (viii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.6 or 2.7 without the written consent of the Swingline Lender; (ix) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 3 or the Institutional L/C Collateral Account Agreement or the Institutional Letter of Credit Fee Letter without the written consent of each Issuing Lender affected thereby; or (x) in connection with an amendment that addresses solely a repricing transaction in which any Class of Term Loans is refinanced with a Class of term loans bearing (or is modified in such a manner such that the resulting term loans bear) a lower Yield (a “Permitted Repricing Amendment”), only the consent of the Lenders holding Term Loans subject to such permitted repricing transaction that will continue as a Lender in respect of the repriced tranche of Term Loans or modified Term Loans (it being agreed that if the opportunity of consent is made available to all Lenders on the same terms, only the consent of the Borrower and any of the parties identified in clauses (i) through (x) shall be required for an amendment, modification, supplement or waiver referred to therein). Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender consent is required to effect any amendment, modification or supplement to any intercreditor agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement or in any document pertaining to any Indebtedness permitted hereby that is permitted to be secured by the Collateral, including any Incremental Term Loan, Incremental Revolving Loan, Refinancing Term Loan, Refinancing Revolving Loan, Refinancing Revolving Commitment,

Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Loans, Refinancing Notes, Additional Term Notes, Unrestricted Additional Term Notes and Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt, Permitted Second Priority Refinancing Debt, or Permitted Unsecured Refinancing Debt for the purpose of adding the holders of such Indebtedness (or their Senior Representative) as a party thereto and otherwise causing such Indebtedness to be subject thereto, in each case as contemplated by the terms of any First Lien Intercreditor Agreement or any Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the then Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the extensions of credit under the Facilities and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and Majority Facility Lenders.

In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Tranche B Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing, replacement or modification of all outstanding Tranche B Term Loans (“Refinanced Tranche B Term Loans”) with a replacement “B” term loan tranche hereunder (“Replacement Tranche B Term Loans”), provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Tranche B Term Loans (with appropriate adjustments to take into account any upfront fees or original issue discount) shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Tranche B Term Loans, (b) the Applicable Margin for such Replacement Tranche B Term Loans shall not be higher than the Applicable Margin for such Refinanced Tranche B Term Loans, (c) the weighted average life to maturity of such Replacement Tranche B Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinanced Tranche B Term Loans at the time of such refinancing, and (d) the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Tranche B Term Loans shall have the same relative rights and priorities under the Loan Documents as the Lenders of the Refinanced Tranche B Term Loans at the time of such refinancing.

If the Borrower wishes to replace the Commitments, Loans and other extensions of credit, as applicable, under any Facility (the “Facility Interests”) with ones having different terms, it shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three (3) Business Days’ advance notice to the Lenders under such Facility, instead of reducing, terminating and repaying such Facility Interests to be replaced, to (i) require the Lenders under such Facility to assign such Facility Interests to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with this Section 10.1 (with such replacement, if applicable, being deemed to have been made pursuant to this Section 10.1). Pursuant to any such assignment, all Facility Interests to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the Lenders under such Facility in the same manner as would be required if all Loans included therein were being optionally prepaid and all Commitments included therein were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Borrower), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon and any amounts owing pursuant to Sections 2.20 or 3. By receiving such purchase price, the Lenders under such Facility shall automatically be deemed to have assigned the Facility Interests under such Facility pursuant to the terms of the form of Assignment and Assumption attached hereto as Exhibit A, and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the Collateral during any such replacement.

The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, make one or more offers (each, a “Loan Modification Offer”) to all the Lenders of one or more classes of Loans and/or Commitments (each class subject to such a Loan Modification Offer, an “Affected Class”) to make one or

more Permitted Amendments (as defined below) pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Permitted Amendment is requested to become effective (which shall not be less than five (5) Business Days nor more than thirty (30) Business Days after the date of such notice, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent). Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Lenders of the Affected Class that accept the applicable Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the “Accepting Lenders”) and, in the case of any Accepting Lender, only with respect to such Lender’s Loan and Commitments of such Affected Class as to which such Lender’s acceptance has been made.

The Borrower and each Accepting Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the acceptance of the Permitted Amendments and the terms and conditions thereof. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Permitted Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Permitted Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of such Permitted Amendment and only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Accepting Lenders of the Affected Class. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Permitted Amendment shall become effective unless the Administrative Agent, to the extent so reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and/or an officer’s certificate consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Sections 5.1 and 5.2.

“Permitted Amendments” shall be (i) an extension of the final maturity date of the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders (provided that such extensions may not result in having more than one additional final maturity date under this Agreement in any year without the consent of the Administrative Agent), (ii) a reduction or elimination of the scheduled amortization of the applicable Loans of the Accepting Lenders, (iii) change in the required percentage with respect to the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders (including by implementation of a “LIBOR floor”) and the payment of additional fees to the Accepting Lenders (any such increase and/or payments to be in the form of cash, Capital Stock or other property to the extent not prohibited by this Agreement) and (iv) if the right to participate in such amendment is provided to all Lenders on the same terms, a reduction of the principal amount of the applicable Loans and/or Commitments or a conversion of the principal amount of the applicable Loans to equity.

10.2 Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the respective parties hereto to be effective shall be in writing (including by telecopy), and, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly given or made when delivered, or three (3) Business Days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, or, in the case of telecopy notice, when received, addressed as follows in the case of Holdings, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and as set forth in an administrative questionnaire delivered to the Administrative Agent in the case of the Lenders, or to such other address as may be hereafter notified by the respective parties hereto:

provided that any notice, request or demand to or upon the Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall not be effective until received.

Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Section 2 or 3 unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

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

10.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder, in the other Loan Documents and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder.

10.5 Payment of Expenses. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse each of the Administrative Agent and the Joint Bookrunners for all its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents

prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of one counsel to the Administrative Agent and Joint Bookrunners (and, to the extent necessary, one local counsel to the Administrative Agent and Joint Bookrunners in any material jurisdiction as to which the Administrative Agent reasonably determines local counsel is necessary) and such other counsel to the Administrative Agent and Joint Bookrunners as is retained with the Borrower’s consent, and filing and recording fees and expenses, with statements with respect to the foregoing to be submitted to the Borrower prior to the Closing Date (in the case of amounts to be paid on the Closing Date) and from time to time thereafter on a quarterly basis or such other periodic basis as the Administrative Agent and Borrower shall deem appropriate, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender and Agent for all its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of one counsel to all Lenders and the Agents in the aggregate, (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender and Agent harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other taxes, if any, that may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, and (d) to pay, indemnify, and hold (i) each Lender and each Agent and (ii) each of the foregoing’s respective partners, trustees, shareholders, officers, directors, employees, advisors, representatives, agents, attorneys and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnitee”) harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of the Loans or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of any Group Member or any of the Properties and the reasonable fees and expenses of one legal counsel for the Agents and all Lenders (and one local counsel to such Lenders in any material jurisdiction as to which the Lenders reasonably determine is necessary) in connection with claims, actions or proceedings by any Indemnitee against any Loan Party under any Loan Document (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided, that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of or material breach of any Loan Document by such Indemnitee (or any of such Indemnitee’s affiliates or their respective officers, directors, employees or agents), to the extent such Indemnitee has settled any claim without the consent of the Borrower (which is not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) or disputes between Lenders (other than with respect to a dispute with a Lender in its capacity as Administrative Agent, Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender). Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, each of Holdings and the Borrower agrees not to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee, except to the extent such claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs, and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws, are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, of or material breach of any Loan Document by, such Indemnitee (or any of such Indemnitee’s affiliates or their respective officers, directors, employees or agents), to the extent such Indemnitee has settled any claim without the consent of the Borrower (which is not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) or disputes between Lenders (other than with respect to disputes not involving acts or omissions by the Borrower).

In the case of any investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in clause (d) of this Section applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or other proceeding is brought by a third party or any Group Member or an Indemnified Party, and whether or not an Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto. All amounts due under this Section 10.5 shall be payable not later than thirty (30) days after written demand therefor. Statements payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 10.5 shall be submitted to the address of the Borrower set forth in Section 10.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Borrower in a written notice to the Administrative Agent. The agreements in this Section 10.5 shall survive termination of the Commitments and repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. This Section 10.5 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

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

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of:

(A) the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund (as defined below) or, if an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or 8(f) has occurred and is continuing, any other Person; and

(B) in the case of an assignment of a Revolving Commitment or any participation in a Revolving Letter of Credit, each Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no such consent shall be required for assignments to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund.

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s interests under any Facility, the amount of the Commitments or Tranche B Term Loans, as applicable, of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 (or, in the case of the Revolving Facility, $5,000,000) unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or 8(f) has occurred and is continuing;

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of each Facility. Section 10.6(b)(ii)(B) shall not be construed to prohibit assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of a single Facility;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500;

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

(E) No assignment shall be made to (i) a competitor (or any Affiliate thereof) of the Borrower and (ii) any other Person identified by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent in writing as of the Closing Date and (iii) (x) any Affiliate or (y) any fund that is administered or managed by an entity or an Affiliate, in each case, of the Persons described in the preceding clause (ii) (each, a “Disqualified Lender”); it being understood and agreed that list referenced in clause (ii) above shall be available to the Lenders upon request.

For the purposes of this Section 10.6, “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18, 2.19, 2.20 and 10.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments, Revolving Extensions of Credit and Institutional L/C Exposure of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative

Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Loans and the Letter of Credit are registered obligations and the right, title and interest of the Lenders in and to such Loans and Letters of Credit, as the case may be, shall be transferable only in accordance with the terms hereof. This Section 10.6(b)(v) shall be construed so that the Loans and the Letters of Credit are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities that are not a Disqualified Lender (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second sentence of Section 10.1 and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18, 2.19 and 2.20 (subject to the requirements and limitations of such Sections (including Sections 2.19(d) and (e) and Sections 2.21 and 2.22 as if the Participant were a Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.7(b) as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 10.7(a) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register of its Participants in compliance with Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in a Participant register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the parties shall treat each Person whose mane is recorded in the Participant register as the Participant for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding a notice to the contrary.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.18 or 2.19 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant except to the extent such entitlement to a greater payment results from a change in any Requirement of Law after the Participant became a Participant.

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

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

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign any or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without regard to the limitations set forth in Section 10.6(b). Each of Holdings, the Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one (1) day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance.

(g) (i) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may assign all or a portion of its Term Loans to any Debt Fund Affiliate, Non-Debt Fund Affiliate or Purchasing Borrower Party; provided that:

(A) if a Purchasing Borrower Party is an assignee, no Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing or would result therefrom;

(B) the assigning Lender and Non-Debt Fund Affiliate or Purchasing Borrower Party purchasing such Lender’s Term Loans shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit G (an “Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption”) in lieu of an Assignment and Assumption (which shall include a customary “big boy” disclaimer by all parties thereto);

(C) for the avoidance of doubt, Lenders shall not be permitted to assign Revolving Commitments or Revolving Loans to any Purchasing Borrower Party or Non-Debt Fund Affiliate;

(D) any Term Loans assigned to any Purchasing Borrower Party shall be automatically and permanently cancelled upon the effectiveness of such assignment and will thereafter no longer be outstanding for any purpose hereunder;

(E) no Purchasing Borrower Party may use the proceeds from Revolving Loans or Swing Line Loans to purchase any Term Loans; and

(F) no Term Loan may be assigned to a Non-Debt Fund Affiliate pursuant to this Section 10.6(g) if after giving effect to such assignment, Non-Debt Fund Affiliate in the aggregate would own in excess of 20% of all Term Loans then outstanding.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Non-Debt Fund Affiliate shall have any right to (i) attend (including by telephone) any meeting or discussions (or portion thereof) among the Administrative Agent or any Lender to which representatives of the Loan Parties are not invited, and (ii) receive any information or material prepared by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any communication by or among the Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders, except to the extent such information or materials have been made available to any Loan Party or its representatives (and in any case, other than the right to receive notices of prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Loans required to be delivered to Lenders), or (iii) make or bring (or participate in, other than as a passive participant in or recipient of its pro rata benefits of) any claim, in its capacity as a Lender, against the Administrative Agent or any other Lender with respect to any duties or obligations or alleged duties or obligations of such Agent or any other such Lender under the Loan Documents (other than for payments due).

(iii) Each Lender participating in any assignment to any Non-Debt Fund Affiliate or Purchasing Borrower Party acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such assignment, (1) any Non-Debt Fund Affiliate or Purchasing Borrower Party then may have, and later may come into possession of information regarding the Borrower, the Sponsor, their respective affiliates not known to such Lender and that may be material to a decision by such Lender to participate in such prepayment (including material non-public information), (2) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on any Non-Debt Fund Affiliate or Purchasing Borrower Party or any of their Subsidiaries, Holdings, the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries, or the Administrative Agent, has made its own analysis and determination to participate in such assignment notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information, (3) none of any Non-Debt Fund Affiliate or Purchasing Borrower Party or any of their Subsidiaries, Holdings, the Borrower or their respective Subsidiaries, or the Administrative Agent shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against any Non-Debt Fund Affiliate or Purchasing Borrower Party and any of their Subsidiaries, Holdings, the Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries, and the Administrative Agent, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information and (4) that the Excluded Information may not be available to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders.

(iv) any Non-Debt Fund Affiliate may, with the consent of the Borrower and with written notice to the Administrative Agent, contribute any of its Term Loans to the Borrower (whether through any of its direct or indirect parent entities or otherwise) and, to the extent agreed with the Borrower, may in return receive (1) loans or Permitted Capital Stock of Holdings or any parent entity of Holdings (to the extent not constituting a Change in Control) or (2) an unsecured loan from the Borrower that (v) does not have a cash interest rate in excess of the interest rate applicable to the Loans so contributed by such Non Debt Fund Affiliate plus 3.0%, (w) is subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations of the Borrower, (x) is not subject to any scheduled amortization, redemption, sinking fund or similar payment and does not have a final maturity, in each case, on or before the date that is 91 days after the Term Loan Maturity Date, (y) does not include any financial covenants and (z) does not include any covenant, default or other agreement that is more restrictive (taken as a whole) on the Loan Parties in any material respect than any comparable covenant in this Agreement. Any Term Loans so contributed pursuant to this subsection shall, without further action by any Person, be deemed cancelled for all purposes

and no longer outstanding (and may not be resold by the Borrower), for all purposes of this Agreement and all other Loan Documents, including, but not limited to (A) the making of, or the application of, any payments to the Lenders under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (B) the making of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (C) the determination of Required Lenders, or for any similar or related purpose, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. In connection with any Term Loans so cancelled pursuant to this subsection, Administrative Agent is authorized to make appropriate entries in the Register to reflect any such cancellation. Any non-cash gains from the cancellation of such Term Loans shall not increase Consolidated EBITDA or Excess Cash Flow for any purpose hereunder. The cancellations contemplated by this subsection shall be deemed to be optional prepayments by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.10, and the principal amount of any such Term Loans so cancelled shall be applied on a pro rata basis to reduce the scheduled remaining installments of principal on such Term Loans (including the installment due on the Term Loan Maturity Date).

(h) Notwithstanding anything in Section 10.1 or the definition of “Required Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the “Required Lenders” have (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (ii) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (iii) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document:

(i) all Tranche B Term Loans held by any Non-Debt Fund Affiliate shall be deemed to be not outstanding for all purposes of calculating whether the Required Lenders have taken any actions; and

(ii) all Tranche B Term Loans, Revolving Commitments and Revolving L/C Exposure held by Debt Fund Affiliates may not account for more than 50% of the Tranche B Term Loans, Revolving Commitments and Revolving L/C Exposure of consenting Lenders included in determining whether the “Required Lenders” have consented to any action pursuant to Section 10.1.

Additionally, the Loan Parties and each Non-Debt Fund Affiliate hereby agree that if a case under Title 11 of the United States Code is commenced against any Loan Party, such Loan Party shall seek (and each Non-Debt Fund Affiliate shall consent) to provide that the vote of any Non-Debt Fund Affiliate (in its capacity as a Lender) with respect to any plan of reorganization of such Loan Party shall not be counted except that such Non-Debt Fund Affiliates’ vote (in its capacity as a Lender) may be counted to the extent any such plan of reorganization proposed to treat the Obligations held by such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate in a manner that is less favorable in any material respect to such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by Lenders that are not Affiliates of the Borrower. Each Non-Debt Fund Affiliate hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent (such appointment being coupled with an interest) as such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate and in the name of such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this paragraph.

(a) Except to the extent that this Agreement expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular Facility, if any Lender (a “Benefitted

Lender”) shall receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other Lender, such Benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of the Obligations owing to each such other Lender, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest; provided further that no amount received from any Loan Party shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligation of such Loan Party; provided further that the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (v) any payment or prepayment made by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Loan Party pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (w) the application of cash collateral supporting Letters of Credit and Institutional Letters of Credit from time to time (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (x) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in Letters of Credit to any assignee or participant or the termination of any Lender’s commitment and non-pro rata repayment of Loans pursuant to Section 2.22, (y) transactions in connection with an open market purchase or a Dutch Auction, or (z) in connection with a transaction pursuant to an Extension Offer, Refinancing Amendment or Incremental Facility Amendment or amendment in connection with a Permitted Refinancing, or Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 10.6. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section shall not limit the ability of Holdings, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary to (i) purchase and retire Term Loans pursuant to an open market purchase or a Dutch Auction or (ii) pay principal, fees, premiums and interest with respect to Refinancing Revolving Loans, Refinancing Term Loans, Refinanced Tranche B Term Loans, Incremental Revolving Loans or Incremental Term Loans following the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, any Extension Offer or Incremental Facility Amendment or exchange, as applicable, on a basis different from the Loans of such Class that will continue to be held by Lenders that were not Extending Lenders or Lenders pursuant to such Incremental Facility Amendment, as applicable.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, without prior notice to Holdings or the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by Holdings and the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Holdings or the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount then due and payable any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final other than payroll or trust accounts), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of Holdings or the Borrower, as the case may be; provided that if any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (i) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders and (ii) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of set-off. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

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

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

10.10 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

10.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

10.12 Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders or among Holdings, the Borrower and the Lenders.

10.14 Releases of Guarantees and Liens.

10.15 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority (including any self-regulatory authority), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower; provided, however, that with respect to disclosures pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) of this Section (other than disclosures pursuant to routine regulatory examinations) and clause (e) of this Section (as such clause relates to suits, actions or proceedings in which disclosure is being sought by a third party), unless prohibited by applicable Requirements of Law or court order, each Lender, each Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent shall (x) notify the Borrower of any request by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof or other Person for disclosure of confidential and non-public information after receipt of such request and (y) if such disclosure of such confidential or non-public information is legally required, furnish only such portion of such information as it is legally compelled to disclose and exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to the disclosed information.

For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower after the Closing Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 10.15 FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BORROWER AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

10.16 WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL. HOLDINGS, THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

10.18 Replacement of Holdings. Notwithstanding any contrary provisions of this Agreement, Holdings may, in order to achieve the effect of substituting a corporation as the immediate parent company of the Borrower, form a corporation that is a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings (such corporation being referred to herein as “New Holdings”), and transfer (subject to the Lien of the Guarantee and Security Agreement) all its assets (including all outstanding Capital Stock of the Borrower) to New Holdings; provided that (a) the arrangements for the formation of New Holdings and the transfer of assets from Holdings to New Holdings are reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (b) New Holdings shall become a party to this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which Holdings is a party and shall assume all obligations of Holdings thereunder pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (c) the Administrative Agent shall receive such documents, certificates and legal opinions as the Administrative Agent or its counsel may reasonably request with respect to the foregoing, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any replacement of Holdings effected pursuant to this Section.

10.19 Mortgaged Property Acknowledgment. Each Lender by making or acquiring a Loan or interest therein or issuing a Letter of Credit acknowledges that (x) any Mortgage encumbering any Mortgaged Property hereunder was or will be entered into without consultation with local counsel in the

jurisdiction where such Mortgaged Property is located and (y) no title insurance policies were or will be obtained with respect to any Mortgages encumbering any Mortgaged Property. Consequently, there is a substantial risk that the Mortgages encumbering any such Mortgaged Property may be invalid or ineffective under applicable law and, in such event, the Lenders would not have any recovery as a secured creditor or under any title insurance policy with respect thereto. Each Lender agrees that neither the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Joint Bookrunners, the Documentations Agents, the Syndication Agent, the Borrower (and its Subsidiaries) nor any of their officers, directors, agents, attorneys, affiliates or other representatives shall have any liability to any Lender as a result of the foregoing.

Each Lender and Agent (a) hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of any intercreditor agreement entered into pursuant to the terms hereof, (b) hereby authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to enter into each intercreditor agreement and any other intercreditor agreement entered into pursuant to the terms hereof and to subject the Liens securing the Secured Obligations to the provisions thereof and (c) hereby authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to enter into any intercreditor agreement that includes, or to amend any then existing intercreditor agreement to provide for, the terms described in the definition of the terms “Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt” or “Permitted Second Priority Refinancing Debt” or other “First Lien Senior Secured Note” or the Administrative Agent, as applicable or as otherwise provided for by the terms of this Agreement; provided that in each case, such intercreditor agreement is substantially consistent with the terms set forth on Exhibit I-1 or I-2 annexed hereto together with (A) any immaterial changes and (B) material changes thereto in light of prevailing market conditions, which material changes shall be posted to the Lenders not less than five (5) Business Days before execution thereof and, if the Required Lenders shall not have objected to such changes within five (5) Business Days after posting, then the Required Lenders shall be deemed to have agreed that the Administrative Agent’s entry into such intercreditor agreement (with such changes) is reasonable and to have consented to such intercreditor agreement (with such changes) and to the Administrative Agent’s execution thereof (it being understood that junior Liens are not required to be pari passu with other junior Liens, and that Indebtedness secured by junior Liens may secured by Liens that are pari passu with, or junior in priority to, other Liens that are junior to the Liens securing the Secured Obligations).

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered by their proper and duly authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.

The Lenders and the Agent are sometimes referred to in this opinion letter as “you”.

In connection with the preparation of this letter, we have, among other things, reviewed executed counterparts of:

We have also reviewed unfiled copies of UCC Form-1 Financing Statements naming (i) each Delaware Credit Party, as debtor, and the Agent, as secured party, copies of which are attached hereto on Exhibit 3 (the “Delaware Financing Statements”), (ii) each Illinois Credit Party, as debtor, and the Agent, as secured party, copies of which are attached hereto on Exhibit 3 (the “Illinois Financing Statements”) and (iii) each California Credit Party, as debtor, and the Agent, as secured party, copies of which are attached hereto on Exhibit 3 (the “California Financing Statements”), to be filed in the Uniform Commercial Code filing office of the

References in this opinion letter to the “Illinois UCC” mean the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect on the date hereof in the State of Illinois. References in this opinion letter to the “California UCC” mean the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect on the date hereof in the State of California. For purposes hereof, (a) the documents listed in items (a) through (i) above (each in the form reviewed by us for purposes of this opinion letter) are called the “Operative Documents” and (b) the documents listed in items (b) through (i) (each in the form reviewed by us for purposes of this opinion letter) are called the “Security Documents”. References in this opinion letter to the “IP Security Agreements” mean the Trademark Security Agreements and the Copyright Security Agreements, collectively. The term “Organizational Documents” whenever used in the letter means the certificate or articles of incorporation (or the equivalent thereof), as applicable, of each Credit Party, and the by-laws or limited liability company agreement (or the equivalent thereof), as applicable, of each Credit Party, as in effect on the date hereof.

Subject to the assumptions, qualifications, exclusions and other limitations which are identified in this opinion letter, we advise you, and with respect to each legal issue addressed in this opinion letter, it is our opinion, that:

With your consent, we have assumed for purposes of this letter and the opinions herein:

(a) that each document we have reviewed for purposes of this letter is accurate and complete, each such document that is an original is authentic, each such document that is a copy conforms to an authentic original, and all signatures on each such document are genuine, and that all natural persons who have signed any document have the legal capacity to do so;

(b) that each Operative Document and every other agreement we have examined for purposes of this letter has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the parties thereto and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of each party to that document, enforceable against each such party in accordance with its respective terms and that each such party has satisfied all legal requirements that are applicable to such party to the extent necessary to entitle such party to enforce such agreement and that each party to any Operative Document is in good standing and duly incorporated or organized under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization (except that we make no such assumption in this paragraph (b) with respect to the Covered Credit Parties);

(c) there are no agreements or understandings among the parties, written or oral (other than the Operative Documents), and there is no usage of trade or course of prior dealing among the parties that would, in either case, define, supplement or qualify the terms of the Operative Documents; and

(d) that the status of the Operative Documents as legally valid and binding obligations of the parties is not affected by any (i) breaches of, or defaults under, agreements or instruments, (ii) violations of statutes, rules, regulations or court or governmental orders, or (iii) failures to obtain required consents, approvals or authorizations from, or make required registrations, declarations or filings with, governmental authorities, provided that we make no such assumption to the extent we have opined as to such matters with respect to the Credit Parties herein.

In addition, for purposes of this letter and the opinions herein we have also assumed with your consent: (i) each Credit Party has the requisite rights to any Collateral existing on the date hereof and will have the requisite rights to each item of Collateral arising after the date hereof, (ii) value (as defined in Section 1-201(44) of the New York UCC) has been given by you to the Credit Parties for the security interests and other rights in and assignments of Collateral described in or contemplated by the Operative Documents and (iii) all information regarding the secured party on the Delaware Financing Statements, Illinois Financing Statements and California Financing Statements, as applicable, is accurate and complete in all respects.

We have also assumed that each of the Agent and each Lender has filed all tax returns and paid all taxes required under the California Revenue and Taxation Code or any other applicable statutes relating to the payment of taxes based on income.

We advise you that pursuant to Section 23301 et seq. of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, a party to the contract may, under certain circumstances, void the contract if the other party (irrespective of the jurisdiction of organization or domicile of such other party) fails to file any required California tax returns and/or pay any required California franchise or other income taxes.

The enforceability of any guarantee contained in the Operative Documents may be subject to California statutory provisions and case law to the effect that a surety or guarantor may be exonerated or discharged, in whole or in part, if the principal or the beneficiary of the guarantee alters the original obligation of the principal, fails to inform the surety or guarantor of material information pertinent to the principal or any collateral, elects remedies that may impair the subrogation rights of the surety or guarantor against the principal or that may impair the value of any collateral, fails to accord the surety or guarantor the protections afforded a debtor under Division 9 of the California UCC or otherwise takes any action that prejudices the surety or guarantor unless, in any such case, the surety or guarantor validly waives such rights or the consequences of any such action. See e.g. California Civil Code Sections 2799 through 2855; California UCC Section 9602; Sumitomo Bank of California v. Iwanski, 70 Cal. 2d 81, 73 Cal. Rptr. 564 (1968); Union Bank v. Gradsky, 265 Cal. App. 2d 40, 71 Cal. Rptr. 63 (1968). While express and specific waivers of a surety’s or guarantor’s right to be exonerated are generally enforceable under California law, we express no opinion as to whether any guarantee contained in the Operative Documents is fully enforceable.

In preparing this letter, we have relied without any independent verification upon: (i) information contained in certificates obtained from governmental authorities; (ii) factual information represented to be true in the Operative Documents; (iii) factual information provided to us in a support certificate signed by each of the Credit Parties; and (iv) factual information we have obtained from such other sources as we have deemed reasonable; and we have examined the originals or copies certified to our satisfaction, of such Organizational Documents and other corporate records or limited liability company records of the Credit Parties as we deem necessary for or relevant to our opinions. We have assumed without investigation that the information upon which we have relied is accurate and does not omit disclosures necessary to prevent such information from being misleading.

The terms “knowledge,” “actual knowledge” and “aware” whenever used in this letter with respect to our firm mean conscious awareness at the time this letter is delivered on the date it bears by the following Kirkland & Ellis LLP lawyers who are the only lawyers at Kirkland & Ellis LLP that have had significant involvement with the negotiation or preparation of the Operative Documents (herein called our “Designated Transaction Lawyers”): Christopher Butler, P.C., Amy Peters, Brian Tweedie, and Lauren Dies. Samantha Good, a partner admitted to practice law in the State of California, has reviewed this letter for purposes of our opinions herein which are matters of California law.

Each opinion (an “enforceability opinion”) in this letter that any particular contract is a valid and binding obligation, is enforceable in accordance with its terms or creates a security interest is subject to: (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally and judicially developed doctrines in this area such as substantive consolidation and equitable subordination; (ii) the effect of general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity); (iii) an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; and (iv) other commonly recognized statutory and judicial constraints on enforceability including statutes of limitations. “General principles of equity” include but are not limited to: principles limiting the availability of specific performance and injunctive relief; principles which limit the availability of a remedy under certain circumstances where another remedy has been

elected; principles requiring reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing in the performance and enforcement of an agreement by the party seeking enforcement; principles which may permit a party to cure a material failure to perform its obligations; and principles affording equitable defenses such as waiver, laches and estoppel.

Each enforceability opinion is also subject to the qualification that certain provisions of the Operative Documents may not be enforceable in whole or in part, although the inclusion of such provisions does not render the Operative Documents invalid, and the Operative Documents and the law of the State of New York contain adequate remedial provisions for the practical realization of the rights and benefits afforded thereby.

Each enforceability opinion is further subject to the effect of rules of law that may render guaranties or other similar instruments or agreements unenforceable under circumstances where your actions, failures to act or waivers, amendments or replacement of the Operative Documents (i) so radically change the essential nature of the terms and conditions of the guaranteed obligations and the related transactions that, in effect, a new relationship has arisen between you and the Credit Parties which is substantially and materially different from that presently contemplated by the Operative Documents, (ii) release the primary obligor, or (iii) impair the guarantor’s recourse against the primary obligor.

We also express no opinion regarding the enforceability any “fraudulent conveyance” or “fraudulent transfer savings” clauses in the Security Agreement or any similar provisions in any Operative Document, to the extent such provisions purport to limit the amount of the obligations of any party or the right to contribution of any other party with respect to such obligations.

We render no opinion regarding the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any Operative Document with respect to any Credit Party to the extent such Operative Document involves any obligation (including any guaranty) of such Credit Party with respect to any “swap” (as such term is defined in the Commodity Exchange Act) if such Credit Party is not an “eligible contract participant” (as such term is defined in the Commodity Exchange Act) at the time such obligation is incurred by such Credit Party.

We render no opinion with regard to usury or other laws limiting or regulating the maximum amount of interest that may be charged, collected, received or contracted for other than the internal laws of the State of New York, and without limiting the foregoing, we expressly disclaim any opinion as to the usury or other such laws of any other jurisdiction (including laws of other states made applicable through principles of Federal preemption or otherwise) which may be applicable to the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents.

Our opinions regarding the creation and perfection of security interests are subject to the effect of (i) the limitations on the existence and perfection of security interests in proceeds resulting from the operation of Section 9-315 of the New York UCC and (ii) certain provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including Section 547 with respect to preferential transfers and Section 552 with respect to any Collateral acquired by a Credit Party subsequent to the commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to such Credit Party.

We express no opinion (i) as to the priority of any security interest, (ii) as to what law governs perfection of the security interests granted in the Collateral, except as provided in opinion paragraph 11, (iii) regarding the perfection of any security interest in money, letter of credit rights, Collateral of a type represented by a certificate of title, any property for which a federal statute or treaty provides for registration or specifies a place of filing different from that specified in Section 9-501 of any applicable Uniform Commercial Code, commercial tort claims, crops, farm products, timber to be cut, as-extracted collateral, or consumer goods and (iv) the effectiveness of any supergeneric description of the Collateral in any Security Document.

We also express no opinion regarding (a) California Civil Code Section 1717, which provides that, where a contract permits the party thereto to recover attorneys’ fees, the prevailing party in any action to enforce any provision of the contract shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees; (b) California laws governing restrictions on distributions (e.g., Cal. Corp. Code Section 500 et seq. and Section 17254); (c) California laws governing foreign corporations (e.g. Cal. Corp. Code Section 2115); (d) Section 1698 of the California Civil Code, which, among other matters, provides that a written contract may be modified by an oral agreement to the extent such agreement is performed by the parties; (e) Section 1670.5 of the California Civil Code, which provides that, if a court finds a contract or portion thereof to be unconscionable at the time it was made, the court may, (i) refuse to enforce the contract, (ii) enforce the contract without the unconscionable clause, or (iii) limit the application of the unconscionable clause to avoid an unconscionable result; and (f) the characterization of any provisions of the Operative Documents as “Environmental Provisions” for purposes of Section 736(f)(2) of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

Nothing contained in this letter covers or otherwise addresses any of the following types of provisions which may be contained in the Operative Documents:

(i) provisions mandating contribution towards judgments or settlements among various parties;

(ii) waivers of benefits and rights to the extent they cannot be waived under applicable law;

(iii) provisions providing for penalties, liquidated damages, acceleration of future amounts due (other than principal) without appropriate discount to present value, late charges, prepayment charges, interest upon interest, or increased interest rates upon default;

(iv) provisions which might require indemnification or contribution in violation of general principles of equity or public policy, including, without limitation, indemnification or contribution obligations which arise out of the failure to comply with applicable state or federal securities laws;

(v) agreements to submit to the jurisdiction of any particular court or other governmental authority (either as to personal or subject matter jurisdiction); provisions restricting access to courts; waiver of service of process requirements which would otherwise be applicable; waiver of the right to a jury trial and provisions otherwise purporting to affect the jurisdiction and venue of courts;

(vi) choice-of-law provisions, except to the extent such choice of law of New York law as the governing law is made in compliance with the statutory laws of the State of New York;

(ix) provisions that authorize you to set off and apply any deposits at any time held, and any other indebtedness at any time owing, by you to or for the account of the Company; or

(x) requirements in the Operative Documents specifying that provisions thereof may only be waived in writing.

Except as expressly otherwise set forth in this letter, our advice on every legal issue addressed in this letter is based exclusively on the internal laws of the State of New York or the Federal law of the United States which, in each case, in our experience is generally applicable both to general business organizations which are not engaged in regulated business activities and to transactions of the type contemplated in the Operative Documents between the Credit Parties, on the one hand, and you, on the other hand (but without our having made any special investigation as to any other laws), except that we express no opinion or advice as to any law or legal issue (a) which might be violated by any misrepresentation or omission or a fraudulent act, or (b) to which any Credit Party may be subject as a result of your legal or regulatory status, your sale or transfer of the Loans or interests therein or your involvement in the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents.

Our opinions in paragraphs 9 and 10 are limited to Article 9 of the New York UCC, Illinois UCC, California UCC, or Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in Delaware, as the case may be, and our opinions in paragraph 11 are limited to Articles 8 and 9 of the New York UCC.

For purposes of the opinions expressed in paragraph 10 with respect to the Delaware Credit Parties, we have reviewed the statutory provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in Delaware, as set forth in the Commerce Clearing House, Inc. Secured Transactions Guide as supplemented through December 9, 2013 (the “Guide”) and, with respect to such Delaware Credit Parties, our opinions in such paragraph 10 are based solely on such review and on the assumption that such statutory provisions are given the same interpretation and application in Delaware as the corresponding provisions of the New York Uniform Commercial Code are given in New York.

With respect to the Delaware Credit Parties only, for purposes of paragraphs 1 through 4 and 6(i) our opinions are based on the DGCL and the DLLCA, as applicable (without regard to judicial interpretation thereof or rules or regulations promulgated thereunder), as published by Aspen Publishers, Inc., as supplemented through December 16, 2013. We note however that we are not admitted to practice law in the State of Delaware, and without limiting the forgoing we expressly disclaim any opinions regarding Delaware contract law or general Delaware law that may be incorporated expressly or by operation of law into the DLLCA or into any Organizational Document entered into pursuant thereto. With respect to the Illinois Credit

Parties only, for purposes of paragraphs 1 through 4 and 6(i) our opinions are based on the IBCA (without regard to judicial interpretation thereof or rules or regulations promulgated thereunder). With respect to the California Credit Parties only, for purposes of paragraphs 1 through 4 and 6(i) our opinions are based on the CGCL (without regard to judicial interpretation thereof or rules or regulations promulgated thereunder).

None of the opinions or other advice contained in this letter considers or covers: (i) any federal or state securities (or “blue sky”) laws or regulations (other than our opinion in paragraph 8 regarding the Investment Company Act) or Federal Reserve Board margin regulations (other than our opinion in paragraph 13) or (ii) federal or state antitrust and unfair competition laws and regulations, pension and employee benefit laws and regulations, compliance with fiduciary duty requirements, federal and state environmental, land use and subdivision, tax, racketeering (e.g., RICO), health and safety (e.g., OSHA), and labor laws and regulations, federal and state laws, regulations and policies concerning national and local emergency, possible judicial deference to acts of sovereign states and criminal and civil forfeiture laws, and other federal and state statutes of general application to the extent they provide for criminal prosecution (e.g., mail fraud and wire fraud statutes).

We also express no opinion regarding any laws relating to terrorism or money laundering, including Executive Order No. 13224, 66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (published September 25, 2001) (the “Terrorism Executive Order”) or any related enabling legislation or any other similar executive order (collectively with the Terrorism Executive Order, the “Executive Orders”), the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-56, the “Patriot Act”), any sanctions and regulations promulgated under authority granted by the Trading with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 1-44, as amended from time to time, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C. §§ 1701-06, as amended from time to time, the Iraqi Sanctions Act, Publ. L. No. 101-513; United Nations Participation Act, 22 U.S.C. § 287c, as amended from time to time, the International Security and Development Cooperation Act, 22 U.S.C. § 2349 aa-9, as amended from time to time, The Cuban Democracy Act, 22 U.S.C. §§ 6001-10, as amended from time to time, The Cuban Liberty and Democratic Solidarity Act, 18 U.S.C. §§ 2332d and 2339b, as amended from time to time, and The Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Designation Act, Publ. L. No. 106-120, as amended from time to time.

We also express no opinion regarding any federal, state and local laws, regulations, licensing requirements and policies relating to health care, Medicare, Medicaid or CHAMPUS (including those of any state regulatory agency or Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services).

We express no opinion as to what law might be applied by any other courts to resolve any issue addressed in this letter. We advise you that issues addressed by this letter may be governed in whole or in part by other laws, but we express no opinion as to whether any relevant difference exists between the laws upon which our opinions are based and any other laws which may actually govern.

This opinion letter speaks as of the time of its delivery on the date it bears. We do not assume any obligation to provide you with any subsequent opinion or advice by reason of any fact about which our Designated Transaction Lawyers did not have actual knowledge at that time, by reason of any change subsequent to that time in any law covered by any of our opinions, or for any other reason.
