(b) Subject to SECTION 2.13., each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans as the Company may request in accordance herewith; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Company to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000; provided that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Commitments. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of 15 Eurocurrency Borrowings outstanding.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date of the applicable Tranche of Loans.

SECTION 2.3. Requests for Borrowings. To request a Borrowing, the Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request (a) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 10:30 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing, or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 10:30 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be delivered by hand delivery or electronic transmission to the Administrative Agent in the form of Exhibit A. Each such written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with SECTION 2.2.:

(i) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing;

(ii) the Tranche of the requested Borrowing;

(iii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

(iv) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing;

(v) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; and

(vi) the location and number of the account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of SECTION 2.6. (a) or (b), as applicable.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be a Eurocurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month if such Borrowing is requested at least three Business Days prior to the date of such proposed Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing otherwise. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurocurrency Borrowing, then the Company shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

SECTION 2.4. [Reserved]

SECTION 2.5. [Reserved]

SECTION 2.6. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Unless a Pre-Closing Funding Election has been made, each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds in Dollars to the account of the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate thereof most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders, by 11:00 a.m., New York City time. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Company by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, as directed by the Company and as designated in the applicable Borrowing Request.

(b) If a Pre-Closing Funding Election has been made, each Lender agrees, subject to the satisfaction (or waiver in accordance with in accordance with SECTION 8.7.) of the conditions set forth in SECTION 4.2. other than the Acquisition Related Conditions, to fund an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of its Loans by wire transfer of immediately available funds into the Pre-Closing Funding Account by 2:00 p.m., New York City time one Business Day before the proposed date of Borrowing set forth in the applicable Borrowing Request (such date, the “Pre-Closing Funding Date”). Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to release all amounts deposited by the Lenders into the Pre-Closing Funding Account (such amounts, the “Pre-Closing Funded Amount”) and make such funds available to the Company as contemplated by paragraph (a) above upon the satisfaction (or waiver in accordance with SECTION 8.7.) of each of the Acquisition Related Conditions; provided that, (x) each Lender shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with each document or other matter required under SECTION 4.2. to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto and (y) solely for the purpose of the foregoing authorization, delivery of the certificate in SECTION 4.2. (h)(ii) shall be deemed satisfaction of the conditions in SECTIONS 4.2(a) and (c) and the Administrative Agent shall be fully allowed to rely on such certificate and shall not be liable for any action taken in reliance on such certificate. Further, it is understood and agreed that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or anything else to the contrary (i) the only representations the accuracy of which shall be a condition to the availability of the Loans on the Closing Date shall be (a) the Acquisition Agreement Representations and (b) the Specified Representations made by the Company in this Agreement (in each case as and to the extent set forth in SECTION 4.2. (a)) and (ii) the Loans shall be available on the Closing Date if the conditions set forth in SECTION 4.2. are satisfied or waived in accordance with SECTION 8.7. In the event the satisfaction (or waiver in accordance with in accordance with SECTION 8.7.) of the conditions set forth in SECTION 4.2. does not occur by 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date that is two Business Days after the Pre-Closing Funding Date (the “Return Date”), the Pre-Closing Funding Amount shall be returned to the respective Lenders within one Business Day of the Return Date, and the Company shall simultaneously therewith pay interest accrued thereon from the Pre-Closing Funding Date to the Return Date, together with any amounts due thereon pursuant to SECTION 2.15., calculated as if the return of such funds was a prepayment of Loans in an equal principal amount on the Return Date. The Company agrees that interest shall accrue on the Pre-Closing Funding Amount from and including the Pre-Closing Funding Date as if the Pre-Closing Funded Amount had been advanced to the Company as a Loan hereunder; provided, that if a Pre-Closing Funding Election has been made by the Company, no commitment fee pursuant to SECTION 2.11. (a) shall accrue on any date on which the Pre-Closing Funding Amount is held in the Pre-Closing Funding Account. For the avoidance of doubt, except as contemplated by the two preceding sentences, (x) the funding of the Pre-Closing Funding Amount shall not constitute a Loan to the Company until such amount has been released to the Company in accordance with this paragraph (b), and (y) any return of the Pre-Closing Funded Amount to the Lenders in accordance with this clause (b) shall not constitute a prepayment of a Loan. For the purpose of this paragraph (b), (x) the “Pre-Closing Funding Election” shall mean the election by the Company to cause the Pre-Closing Funding Amount to be funded to the Pre-Closing Funding Account on the Pre-Closing Funding Date, which election shall be set forth in or accompany a Borrowing Request delivered not later than (i) 10:30 a.m., New York City time one Business Day prior to the Pre-Closing Funding Date (in the case of ABR Borrowings) and (ii) 10:30 a.m., New York City time three Business Days prior to the Pre-Closing Funding Date (in the case of Eurocurrency Borrowings), (y) the “Pre-Closing Funding Account” means an account in the name of (i) the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or (ii) a financial institution (in its capacity as escrow agent) designated by the Administrative Agent and approved by the Company, which account has been identified as the “Pre-Closing Funding Account” by notice in writing to the Lenders, and which account shall have terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Company and (z) “Acquisition Related Conditions” means the conditions set forth in (i) SECTION 4.2. (a), (ii) SECTION 4.2. (b), (iii) SECTION 4.2. (c), (iv) SECTION 4.2. (e), (v) SECTION 4.2. (f) and (vi) SECTION 4.2. (h)(ii).

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Company to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the NYFRB Rate from time to time in effect or (ii) in the case of the Company, the interest rate on the applicable Borrowing; provided that no repayment by the Company pursuant to this sentence shall be deemed to be a prepayment for purposes of SECTION 2.15. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

SECTION 2.7. Interest Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Company may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. Eurocurrency Loans may not be converted to Loans of a different Type. The Company may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under SECTION 2.3. if the Company were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, telecopy, or electronic transmission to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Company.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with SECTION 2.2.:

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Company shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) If the Company fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Company, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.8. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall automatically terminate on the earlier of (i) the end of the Availability Period and (ii) the Closing Date (after giving effect to the Loans made on such date). The Company shall provide the Administrative Agent prompt written notice of any commitment reduction pursuant to clause (i) hereof.

(b) The Company may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $25,000,000.

(c) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election, Tranche and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Company may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments with respect to any Tranche shall be made ratably among the Lenders of such Tranche in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Tranche.

SECTION 2.9. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Company hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (i) with respect to the 364-Day Tranche, the then unpaid principal amount of its 364-Day Tranche Loans on the applicable Maturity Date with respect to such Loans, (ii) with respect to the 3-Year Tranche Loans, the then unpaid principal amount of its 3-Year Tranche Loans on the applicable Maturity Date with respect to such Loans and (iii) with respect to the 5-Year Tranche Loans, (A) on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December of each year (commencing on the last day of the first fiscal quarter of the Company ending after the third anniversary of the Closing Date), an amount equal to 2.5% of the aggregate principal amount of such Loans outstanding immediately after the Closing Date and (B) on the Maturity Date of the 5-Year Tranche Loans, the then unpaid principal amount of such Loans.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Company to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain a Register pursuant to SECTION 8.4. (d), and an account for each Lender in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder and any promissory note evidencing such Loan, the Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Company to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Company to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note for its Loans substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto. In such event, the Company shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to SECTION 8.4.) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its assigns).

SECTION 2.10. Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Company shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section.

(b) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or electronic transmission) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time three Business Days before the date of prepayment and (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the Tranche and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by SECTION 2.8., then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with SECTION 2.8. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in SECTION 2.2. Each prepayment of Loans shall be applied ratably to the Tranche or Tranches of Loans specified by the Company in the applicable notice of repayment, and each prepayment of Loans of any Tranche or Tranches shall be applied against payments otherwise required under SECTION 2.9. (a) (if any) in direct order of maturity (unless otherwise directed by the Company). Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by SECTION 2.12.

SECTION 2.11. Fees. (a) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee in Dollars which shall accrue at the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the unused Commitment of such Lender under the applicable Tranche during the period from and including the date that is 90 days following the date of this Agreement until the earlier of (i) the last day of the Availability Period and (ii) the Closing Date, payable in arrears on such date. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(b) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the administrative, auction and other fees separately agreed upon between the Company and the Administrative Agent (collectively, the “Administrative Fees”).

(c) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, in the case of commitment fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.12. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Company hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.0% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.0% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.

(e) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan; provided, that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(f) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at time when the Alternate Base Rate is based on clause (a) of the first sentence of the definition of Alternate Base Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.13. Alternate Rate of Interest. Subject to SECTION 1.6., if prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing:

(a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be made in good faith and shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Company and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy or electronic transmission, as applicable, as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.

SECTION 2.14. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) subject any Lender or Agent to any Taxes (other than (x) Non-Excluded Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment made by or on account of any obligation of the Company under any Loan Document, (y) Excluded Taxes and (z) Other Taxes) on its Loans, Loan principal, Commitments, or other obligations under the Loan Documents, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

(ii) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender; or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any Loan) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then the Company will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements or liquidity has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time the Company will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or amounts shall have been determined, shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Company shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 60 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 60-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(e) [Reserved].

(f) [Reserved].

SECTION 2.15. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under SECTION 2.10. (b) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to SECTION 2.18., then, in any such event, the Company shall compensate each Lender for the out-of-pocket loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the present value of the excess, if any, of (i) its cost of obtaining the funds for the Loan being paid, prepaid, refinanced or not borrowed (assumed to be the LIBO Rate that would have been applicable thereto) for the period from the date of such payment, prepayment, refinancing or failure to borrow or refinance to the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow or refinance the Interest Period for such Loan which would have commenced on the date of such failure) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would be realized by such Lender in reemploying the funds so paid, prepaid or not borrowed or refinanced for such period or Interest Period, as the case may be. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or amounts shall have been determined shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.16. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent hereunder by or on account of any obligation of the Company shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all current or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding (i) net income or franchise and similar taxes imposed on (or measured by) net income imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or participant) by the United States and any other jurisdiction as a result of a present or former connection between the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or participant) and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than as a result of entering into this Agreement, performing any obligations hereunder, receiving any payments hereunder or enforcing any rights hereunder) (ii) any branch profits tax imposed by the United States or any similar tax imposed by any other jurisdiction in which the Company is located, (iii) taxes that are imposed under FATCA and (iv) any taxes that are attributable solely to the failure of any Lender to comply with SECTION 2.16. (g) (all such nonexcluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities, collectively or individually, “Non-Excluded Taxes” and all such excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities, collectively or individually, together with any Taxes described in SECTION 2.16. (i), “Excluded Taxes”). If any applicable withholding agent shall be required to deduct any Non-Excluded Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased by the amount (an “Additional Amount”) necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to Additional Amounts payable under this SECTION 2.16.) such Lender or such Administrative Agent (as the case may be) shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the withholding agent shall make such deductions and (iii) the applicable withholding agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Company shall pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any current or future stamp, intangibles or documentary Taxes or any other excise or property Taxes, charges or similar levies arising from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document that are imposed by a Governmental Authority in a jurisdiction in which the Company is incorporated, organized, managed and controlled or considered to have its seat or otherwise has a connection (other than as a result of entering into this Agreement, performing any obligations hereunder, receiving any payments hereunder or enforcing any rights hereunder) (“Other Taxes”).

(c) The Company shall indemnify each Lender (or participant) and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes paid by such Lender (or participant) or such Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses)) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared by a Lender, or the Administrative Agent on its behalf and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount shall have been determined, absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. Such indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date the Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, makes written demand therefor, which written demand shall be made within 180 days of the date such Lender or Administrative Agent receives written demand for payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes from the relevant Governmental Authority.

(d) If a Lender (or participant) or the Administrative Agent receives a refund in respect of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Company, or with respect to which the Company has paid Additional Amounts pursuant to this SECTION 2.16., it shall within 30 days from the date of such receipt pay over such refund to the Company (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or Additional Amounts paid, by the Company under this SECTION 2.16. with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender (or participant) or such Administrative Agent and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, however, that the Company, upon the request of such Lender (or participant) or such Administrative Agent, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Company (plus penalties, interest or other charges) to such Lender (or participant) or such Administrative Agent in the event such Lender (or participant) or such Administrative Agent is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.

(e) As soon as practicable after the date of any payment of Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes by the Company to the relevant Governmental Authority, the Company will deliver to the Administrative Agent, at its addresses referred to in SECTION 8.1., the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing payment thereof.

Each Lender (or participant) that is not a United States person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent two copies of either IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI (or any successor forms), Form W-8IMY (or successor form) together with any applicable underlying IRS forms, 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”, an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, or any subsequent or substitute versions thereof or successors thereto (and a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F representing that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, is not a 10 percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code) of the Company, is not a controlled foreign corporation related to the Company (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code) and is not conducting a trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest payments are effectively connected), properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or reduced rate of, U.S. Federal withholding tax on payments by the Company under this Agreement. Such forms shall be delivered by each Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of a participant, on or before the date such participant becomes a participant hereunder) and on or before the date, if any, such Lender changes its applicable lending office by designating a different lending office (a “New Lending Office”). In addition, each Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Lender.

(g) that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(h) [Reserved];

(i) The Company shall not be required to indemnify any Lender, or to pay any Additional Amounts to any Lender, in respect of any withholding tax pursuant to paragraph (a) or (c) above to the extent that (i) such withholding tax is imposed by the United States and the obligation to withhold amounts with respect to such withholding tax was in effect and would apply to amounts payable to such Lender on the date such Lender became a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of a participant, on the date such participant became a participant hereunder) or, with respect to payments to a New Lending Office or the date such Lender designated such New Lending Office with respect to a Loan; provided, however, that this clause (i) shall not apply to any Lender (or participant) if the assignment, participation, transfer or designation of a New Lending Office was made at the request of the Company or was made pursuant to SECTION 2.18.; and provided further, however, that this clause (i) shall not apply to the extent the indemnity payment or Additional Amounts any Lender (or participant) would be entitled to receive (without regard to this clause (i)) do not exceed the indemnity payment or Additional Amounts that the Lender (or participant) making the assignment, participation, transfer or designation of such New Lending Office would have been entitled to receive in the absence of such assignment, participation, transfer or designation, or (ii) the obligation to pay such Additional Amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Lender (or participant) to comply with the provisions of paragraph (g)(i) above. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Lender shall remain subject to the obligations under SECTION 2.18.

(j) [Reserved].

(k) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (to the extent that the Company has not already indemnified the Agents for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Company to do so) attributable to such Lender (including any Taxes due to such Lender’s failure to maintain a Participant Register pursuant to SECTION 8.4.(f) ) that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this SECTION 2.16. (k) shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.

(l) Nothing contained in this SECTION 2.16. shall require any Lender (or participant) or the Administrative Agent to make available any of its tax returns (or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary).

SECTION 2.17. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Company shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees, or of amounts payable under SECTION 2.14., SECTION 2.15. or SECTION 2.16., or otherwise) prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time at the place of payment, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 1300 Thames Street, Thames Street Wharf, 4th Floor, Baltimore, MD 21231 or such other location as the Administrative Agent shall designate from time to time, except that payments pursuant to SECTION 2.14., SECTION 2.15., SECTION 2.16. and SECTION 8.5. shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars. Except as provided in clause (c) below, each payment or prepayment of principal or payment of interest in respect of a Borrowing of Loans shall be allocated ratably among the parties entitled thereto.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Company pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant. The Company consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Company rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Company in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Company prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Company will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Company has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Company has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the NYFRB Rate in effect from time to time.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to SECTION 2.6.(b) or SECTION 2.17.(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

SECTION 2.18. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under SECTION 2.14., or if the Company is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to SECTION 2.16., then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to file any certificate or document reasonably requested by the Company (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions), to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such filing, designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to SECTION 2.14. or SECTION 2.16., as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under SECTION 2.14., or if the Company is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to SECTION 2.16., or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Company may, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in SECTION 8.4.), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Company shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under SECTION 2.14. or payments required to be made pursuant to SECTION 2.16., such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments.

SECTION 2.19. [Reserved].

SECTION 2.20. [Reserved].

SECTION 2.21. Defaulting Lenders.

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

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to SECTION 2.11. (a); and

(b) the Commitment and Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to SECTION 8.7.); provided that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby.

No non-Defaulting Lender shall have any obligation to fund any portion of a Loan which a Defaulting Lender has failed to fund.

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

(iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84- 14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement; or

In addition, unless sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding paragraph is true with respect to a Lender or such Lender has not provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding paragraph, such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Company, that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto).

The Lenders irrevocably authorize and direct the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under its Guaranty automatically as set forth in SECTION 5.15. (c) and authorize and direct the Administrative Agent to, at the Company’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Guarantor such documents or instruments as the Company or such Guarantor may reasonably request to evidence the release of such Guaranty.

The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error and the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. No assignment or transfer of any Loan (or portion thereof) or any Note evidencing such Loan shall be effected unless and until it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this SECTION 8.4.

(b) for costs or reductions resulting from the sale of a participation), except that all claims made pursuant to such Sections shall be made through such selling Lender, and (iv) the Company, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such selling Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Company relating to the Loans and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications or waivers decreasing any commitment fees payable hereunder or thereunder or the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on the Loans, extending the final scheduled maturity of the Loans or any date scheduled for the payment of interest on the Loans, or increasing the Commitments, to the extent such Lender’s consent would be required with respect thereto under SECTION 8.7. (b) ). Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(g) Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant (and any agent or professional advisor of any of the foregoing) any information relating to the Company furnished to such Lender; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant (or agent or professional advisor, if applicable) shall be subject to confidentiality provisions substantially the same as the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement.

(h) The Company shall not assign or delegate any rights and duties hereunder without the prior written consent of all Lenders.

(i) Any Lender may at any time pledge or otherwise assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority; provided that no such pledge shall release any Lender from its obligations hereunder. In order to facilitate such an assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority, the Company shall, at the request of the assigning Lender, duly execute and deliver to the assigning Lender a promissory note or notes evidencing the Loans made by the assigning Lender hereunder.

(a) The Company agrees to pay promptly following written demand (including documentation reasonably supporting such request) all reasonable and invoiced out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Agent (and its Affiliates acting as lead arranger and bookrunner in respect of this Agreement) in connection with entering into this Agreement, the syndication of the Commitments and the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of the Loan Documents or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of a single counsel for such Persons as a whole and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction (and, solely in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, of one additional counsel (and, if reasonably necessary, one additional local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction)), or incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the enforcement of their rights in connection with this Agreement or in connection with the Loans made hereunder or thereunder, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent and, in the case of enforcement, each Lender.

(b) The Company agrees to indemnify each Agent, Arranger and each Lender, each of their Affiliates and the directors, officers, employees, advisors and agents of the foregoing, in each case, involved with or having responsibility for this Agreement (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable counsel fees and expenses of one counsel to such Indemnitees taken as a whole and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction (and, solely in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, of one additional counsel (and, if reasonably necessary, one additional local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction)), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of (i) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto and regardless of whether brought by a third party or by the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates; provided that (A) such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, (B) such indemnity shall not apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses that result from disputes solely between Indemnitees (other than disputes involving claims against any Person in its capacity as, or fulfilling its role as, an arranger or Agent or agent or similar role in respect of this Agreement) or (C) resulting from material breaches of the Loan Documents by the applicable Indemnitee as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any actions or proceedings in respect of this Agreement effected without the Company’s written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), but if settled with the Company’s written consent or if there is a final judgment in any such action or proceeding or if the Company was offered the ability to assume the defense of the action that was the subject matter of such settlement and elected not to assume such defense, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses by reason of such settlement in accordance with this paragraph. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the applicable Indemnitees (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle, compromise, consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination (i) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnitee from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability, or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnitee.

(c) Neither an Indemnitee nor the Company shall be liable to the Company or any Indemnitee in connection with its activities related to the Loan Documents or in connection with any suit, action or proceeding (x) for any damages arising from the use by unauthorized Persons of information or materials sent through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems that are intercepted by such persons (except to the extent arising from the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee or the Company, as applicable) or (y) for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages; provided that this clause (y) shall not affect or limit the Company’s indemnity obligations set forth in paragraph (b) above. In the case of any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding to which the indemnity in this SECTION 8.5. applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Company or its equity holders or creditors or any Indemnitee, subject to the limitations and exclusions set forth in this paragraph and paragraph (b) above.

(d) The provisions of this Section shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable on written demand therefor.

THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (except that (i) the interpretation of Acquired Business Material Adverse Effect and whether an Acquired Business Material Adverse Effect has occurred, (ii) the accuracy of any Acquisition Agreement Representation and whether as a result of a breach thereof by the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) have the right to terminate its (or their) obligations under the Acquisition Agreement, or to decline to consummate the Acquisition pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement and (iii) whether the Acquisition has been consummated in accordance with the Acquisition Agreement, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles that would result in the application of the law of any other state).

SECTION 8.7. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on the Company or any Subsidiary in any case shall entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Subject to SECTION 1.6., neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Company and the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no such agreement shall (i) decrease the principal amount of, or extend the maturity of or any scheduled principal payment date, the date for the payment of any interest on any Loan or the date for the payment of any fee payable hereunder, or extend the Availability Period, or waive or excuse any such payment or any part thereof, or decrease the rate of interest on any Loan (other than as a result of a waiver of default interest imposed pursuant to SECTION 2.12. (e) ), without the prior written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby, (ii) increase the Commitment, or decrease the commitment fees of any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender, (iii) amend or modify the provisions of SECTION 8.4. (h) or this Section or the definition of the “Required Lenders”, without the prior written consent of each Lender, (iv) change SECTION 2.17. (a), SECTION 2.17. (b) or SECTION 2.17. (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender directly or adversely affected thereby or (v) to the extent any Guaranty is then in effect, release any material Guarantor (except as such release is otherwise provided for in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents) without the written consent of each Lender; provided further, however, that (i) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of such Administrative Agent and (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent hereunder may affect one Tranche of the Lenders’ Loans or Commitments more adversely vis-a-vis the other Tranche without the consent of the Lenders having more than a majority interest of the outstanding principal of Loans and Commitments of such adversely affected Tranche. Each Lender shall be bound by any waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this Section and any consent by any Lender pursuant to this Section shall bind any assignee of its rights and interests hereunder. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Administrative Agent and the Company shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Company shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document.

SECTION 8.8. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitutes the entire contract among the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.

SECTION 8.9. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

SECTION 8.10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute but one contract, and shall become effective as provided in SECTION 8.3.

SECTION 8.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 8.12. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender, or any Affiliate thereof, to or for the credit or obligations of the Company now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Company after such setoff and application made by such Lender, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 8.13. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.
