Not later than 4:00 PM (Phoenix, Arizona time) on each Borrowing Date, each Lender shall make available its Revolving Loans in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent at its address specified pursuant to Article XIII. The Administrative Agent will make the funds so received from the Lenders available to Holdings at the Administrative Agent’s aforesaid address. Each Advance of Revolving Loans shall be made from the several Revolving Lenders ratably according to their Pro Rata Shares.

2.5    Interest Rates.

2.5.1    Interest Rates. Each Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the date such Advance is made, to but excluding the date it is repaid, at a rate per annum equal to (a) in the case of Revolving Loans, the Revolving Loan Interest Rate for such day, and (b) in the case of Term Loans, 3.25% per annum, in each case subject to Section 2.5.2. Changes in the rate of interest on any Advance of Revolving Loans will take effect simultaneously with each change in the Revolving Loan Interest Rate.

2.5.2    Rates Applicable After Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, during the continuance of an Event of Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice from the Administrative Agent to Holdings (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.3 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that each Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate otherwise in effect from time to time plus 2.00% per annum (the “Default Rate”), and the Letter of Credit Fee shall be increased by 2.00% per annum, provided that, during the continuance of an Event of Default under Sections 7.2, 7.5 or 7.6, the interest rates set forth above shall be applicable automatically to all Advances without any election or action on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. After an Event of Default has been waived, the interest rate applicable to advances and the Letter of Credit Fee shall revert to the rates applicable prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default.

2.6    Fees.

2.6.1    Upfront Fee. The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender according to its Pro Rata Share of the Loans on the Effective Date, an upfront fee equal to 0.25% times the sum of such Lender's Revolving Commitment plus such Lender's Term Loan Commitment as of the Effective Date.

26

QB\85665838.185665838.5

2.6.4    Prepayment Fees. Borrowers shall pay a prepayment fee for the benefit of the Lenders based on each Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan upon any prepayment of the Term Loan in an amount equal to the Prepayment Percentage times the principal amount prepaid. The “Prepayment Percentage” shall equal (a) three percent (3.0%) to but excluding the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement, (b) two percent (2.0%) from and including the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement to but excluding the second anniversary of the date of this Agreement, and (c) one percent (1.0%) from and including the second anniversary of the date of this Agreement to but excluding the third anniversary of the date of this Agreement. Such fees shall be due and payable on the date of the applicable prepayment. For purposes of this Section 2.6.4, acceleration of the Loans following an Event of Default shall be considered a prepayment in full of the Loans; accordingly, the prepayment fee described in this Section shall be part of the Obligations and may be included by the Administrative Agent and Lenders in any judgment taken against the Borrower. The Borrower acknowledges that the prepayment fee described in this Section is a reasonable estimate of the cost to the Lenders resulting from the prepayment or acceleration of the Loans and is not imposed as a penalty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no fee shall be payable under this Section 2.6.4 as a result of (x) a termination of this Agreement in connection with a restructuring or refinancing of the Commitments with Administrative Agent, (y) any prepayment made with excess cash arising from Borrower's operations, or (z) any prepayment made with proceeds of asset sales by Borrowers.

2.7    Method of Payment of Loans. Each Advance shall be repaid and each payment of interest thereon shall be paid in Dollars. All payments of the Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be made, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim, in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s address specified pursuant to Article XIII, or at any other Lending Installation of the Administrative Agent specified in writing by the Administrative Agent to Holdings, by 12:00 noon (Phoenix, Arizona time) on the date when due and shall (except (a) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations for which the Letter of Credit Issuer has not been fully indemnified by the Lenders, or (b) as otherwise specifically required hereunder) be applied ratably by the Administrative Agent among the Lenders. Each payment delivered to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly, but in any event within one (1) Business Day of receipt thereof, by the Administrative Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds that the Administrative Agent received at its address specified pursuant to Article XIII or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by the Administrative Agent from such Lender. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to charge the account of Holdings maintained with UMB Bank, N.A., for each payment of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligations and fees as it becomes due hereunder. Each reference to the Administrative Agent in this Section 2.7 shall also be deemed to refer, and shall apply equally, to the Letter of Credit Issuer, in the case of payments required to be made by a Borrower to the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to Section 2.14(f).

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

(a)    The Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder, and (iii) the original stated amount of each Facility Letter of Credit and the amount of Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding at any time, and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrowers and each Lender’s share thereof.

(b)    The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms.

(c)    Any Lender may request through the Administrative Agent that the Loans made by such Lender be evidenced by a promissory note, substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 or E-2, as applicable (each a “Note”). In such event, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender such Note or Notes payable to the order of such Lender.

2.9    Telephonic Notices. The Borrowers hereby authorize the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to extend Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices made by any Person or Persons the Administrative Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of a Borrower, it being understood that the foregoing authorization is specifically intended to allow Borrowing Notices to be given telephonically. Each Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent a written confirmation (which may include e-mail) of each telephonic notice authenticated by an Authorized Officer. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall govern absent manifest error. The parties agree to prepare appropriate documentation to correct any such error within ten (10) days after discovery by any party to this Agreement.

2.10    Calculation and Payment of Interest. Interest accrued on each Advance shall be payable on each Payment Date, commencing with the first Payment Date to occur after the Effective Date. Interest accrued pursuant to Section 2.5.2 shall be payable on demand. Interest on all Advances and fees shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year. Interest shall be payable for the day an Advance is made but not for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is received prior to 12:00 p.m. (Phoenix, Arizona time) at the place of payment. If any payment of principal of or interest on an Advance shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

2.11    Notification of Advances, Interest Rates, and Prepayments. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each Borrowing Notice and repayment notice received by it hereunder. Promptly after notice from the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each request for issuance of a Facility Letter of Credit hereunder. The Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the interest rate applicable to each Advance promptly upon determination of such interest rate and will give each Lender prompt notice of each change in the applicable interest rate.

2.12    Lending Installations. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Lenders may designate its Lending Installation; each Lender may book its Advances and its participation in any Letter of Credit Obligations; and the Letter of Credit Issuer may book the Facility Letters of Credit at any Lending Installation selected by Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, and may change its Lending Installation from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation and the Loans, Facility Letters of Credit, participations in Letter of Credit Obligations and any Notes issued hereunder shall be deemed held by each Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, for the benefit of any such Lending Installation. Each Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent and Holdings in accordance with Article XIII, designate replacement or additional Lending Installations through which Loans will be made by it or Facility Letters of Credit will be issued by it and for whose account Loan payments or payments with respect to Facility Letters of Credit are to be made.

29

QB\85665838.185665838.5

2.13    Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Borrowers or a Lender, as the case may be, notify the Administrative Agent prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Administrative Agent of (a) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (b) in the case of the Borrowers, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or the Borrowers, as the case may be, have not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of payment by a Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such day for the first three (3) days and, thereafter, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan or (y) in the case of payment by the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan.

2.14    Facility Letters of Credit.

(a)    Issuance. The Letter of Credit Issuer hereby agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to issue Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars (each, a “Facility Letter of Credit”) and to renew, extend, increase, decrease or otherwise modify each Facility Letter of Credit (“Modify,” and each such action a “Modification”), from time to time from and including the date of this Agreement and prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date upon the request of the Borrowers; provided that immediately after each such Facility Letter of Credit is issued or Modified, the aggregate Dollar Amount of the outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations shall not cause (i) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations at any time to exceed $25,000,000.00, or (ii) a Lender’s Revolving Exposure to exceed its Revolving Commitment. No Facility Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date later than the earlier to occur of (x) the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date and (y) one (1) year after its issuance; provided, however, that the expiry date of a Facility Letter of Credit may be up to one (1) year later than the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date if the Borrowers have posted on or before the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date cash collateral in the Facility Letter of Credit Collateral Account on terms satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to 105% of the Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Facility Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall have no obligation hereunder to issue any Facility Letter of Credit the proceeds of which would be made available to any Person (i) to fund any activity or business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of any Sanctions or (ii) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement.

30

QB\85665838.185665838.5

and each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Letter of Credit Issuer, a participation in such Facility Letter of Credit (and each Modification thereof) and the related Letter of Credit Obligations in proportion to its Pro Rata Share.

The Borrowers shall give the Administrative Agent notice prior to 10:00 a.m. (Phoenix, Arizona time) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance of each Facility Letter of Credit, specifying the beneficiary, the proposed date of issuance and the expiry date of such Facility Letter of Credit, and describing the proposed terms of such Facility Letter of Credit and the nature of the transactions proposed to be supported thereby. Upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Letter of Credit Issuer and each Lender of the contents thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s participation in such proposed Facility Letter of Credit. The issuance by the Letter of Credit Issuer of any Facility Letter of Credit shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Article IV, be subject to the conditions precedent that such Facility Letter of Credit shall be satisfactory to the Letter of Credit Issuer and that the Borrowers shall have executed and delivered such application agreement and/or such other instruments and agreements relating to such Facility Letter of Credit as the Letter of Credit Issuer shall have reasonably requested (each, a “Facility Letter of Credit Application”). The Letter of Credit Issuer shall have no independent duty to ascertain whether the conditions set forth in Article IV have been satisfied; provided, however, that the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not issue a Facility Letter of Credit if, on or before the proposed date of issuance, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall have received notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders that any such condition has not been satisfied or waived. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Facility Letter of Credit Application, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, with respect to each Facility Letter of Credit, a letter of credit fee at a per annum rate equal to 1.25% on the maximum stated amount of such Facility Letter of Credit (after giving effect to any scheduled increases or decreases) for the period from the date of issuance to the scheduled expiration date of such Facility Letter of Credit, such fee to be payable on or before the date of issuance (the “Letter of Credit Fee”).

(e)    Administration; Reimbursement by Lenders.

The responsibility of the Letter of Credit Issuer to the Borrowers and each Lender shall be only to determine that the documents (including each demand for payment) delivered under each Facility Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment shall be in conformity in all material respects with such Facility Letter of Credit. The Letter of Credit Issuer shall endeavor to exercise the same care in the issuance and administration of the Facility Letters of Credit

31

QB\85665838.185665838.5

as it does with respect to letters of credit in which no participations are granted, it being understood that each Lender shall be unconditionally and irrevocably liable without regard to the occurrence of any Event of Default or any condition precedent whatsoever, to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer on demand for (i) such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of each payment made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under each Facility Letter of Credit to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.14(f) below and there are not funds available in the Facility Letter of Credit Collateral Account to cover the same, plus (ii) interest on the foregoing amount to be reimbursed by such Lender, for each day from the date of the Letter of Credit Issuer’s demand for such reimbursement (or, if such demand is made after 11:00 a.m. (Phoenix, Arizona time) on such date, from the next succeeding Business Day) to the date on which such Lender pays the amount to be reimbursed by it a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(f)    Reimbursement by Borrowers. The Borrowers shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer on or before the applicable Letter of Credit Payment Date for any amounts to be paid by the Letter of Credit Issuer upon any drawing under any Facility Letter of Credit, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind; provided that neither the Borrowers nor any Lender shall hereby be precluded from asserting any claim for direct (but not consequential) damages suffered by the Borrowers or such Lender to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (i) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Letter of Credit Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility Letter of Credit issued by it complied with the terms of such Facility Letter of Credit or (ii) the Letter of Credit Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility Letter of Credit issued by it after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility Letter of Credit. All such amounts paid by the Letter of Credit Issuer and remaining unpaid by the Borrowers shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to (x) the Revolving Loan Interest Rate for such day if such day falls on or before the applicable Letter of Credit Payment Date and (y) the sum of 2.00% per annum plus the Revolving Loan Interest Rate for such day if such day falls after such Letter of Credit Payment Date. The Letter of Credit Issuer will pay to each Lender ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share all amounts received by it from the Borrowers for application in payment, in whole or in part, of the Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility Letter of Credit issued by the Letter of Credit Issuer, but only to the extent such Lender has made payment to the Letter of Credit Issuer in respect of such Facility Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.14(e). Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including without limitation the submission of a Borrowing Notice in compliance with Section 2.4 and the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article IV), the Borrowers may request an Advance hereunder for the purpose of satisfying any Reimbursement Obligation.

(g)    Obligations Absolute. The Borrowers’ obligations under this Section 2.14 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrowers may have or have had against the Letter of Credit Issuer, any Lender or any beneficiary of a Facility Letter

32

QB\85665838.185665838.5

of Credit. The Borrowers further agree with the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Lenders that the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Lenders shall not be responsible for, and the Borrowers’ Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility Letter of Credit shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrowers, any of their Affiliates, the beneficiary of any Facility Letter of Credit or any financing institution or other party to whom any Facility Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims or defenses whatsoever of the Borrowers or of any of their Affiliates against the beneficiary of any Facility Letter of Credit or any such transferee. The Letter of Credit Issuer 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 Facility Letter of Credit. The Borrowers agree that any action taken or omitted by the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender under or in connection with each Facility Letter of Credit and the related drafts and documents, if done without gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding upon the Borrowers and shall not put the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender under any liability to the Borrowers.

(h)    Actions of Letter of Credit Issuer.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.14, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Lenders and any future holders of a participation in any Facility Letter of Credit.

(i)    Indemnification. The Borrowers hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Administrative Agent, and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees from and against any and all claims and damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements) which such Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Administrative Agent may incur (or which may be claimed against such Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Administrative Agent by any Person whatsoever) by reason of or in connection with the issuance, execution and delivery or transfer of or payment or failure to pay under any Facility Letter of Credit or any actual or proposed use of any Facility Letter of Credit, including, without limitation, any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements) which the Letter

33

QB\85665838.185665838.5

of Credit Issuer may incur (i) by reason of or in connection with the failure of any other Lender to fulfill or comply with its obligations to the Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder (but nothing herein contained shall affect any rights the Borrowers may have against any Defaulting Lender) or (ii) by reason of or on account of the Letter of Credit Issuer issuing any Facility Letter of Credit which specifies that the term “Beneficiary” included therein includes any successor by operation of law of the named Beneficiary, but which Facility Letter of Credit does not require that any drawing by any such successor Beneficiary be accompanied by a copy of a legal document, satisfactory to the Letter of Credit Issuer, evidencing the appointment of such successor Beneficiary; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to indemnify any Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Administrative Agent for any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (x) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Letter of Credit Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility Letter of Credit complied with the terms of such Facility Letter of Credit or (y) the Letter of Credit Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility Letter of Credit. Nothing in this Section 2.14(i) is intended to limit the obligations of the Borrowers under any other provision of this Agreement.

(j)    Lenders’ Indemnification. Each Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, indemnify the Letter of Credit Issuer, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Facility Letter of Credit) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Section 2.14 or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.

(k)    Facility Letter of Credit Collateral Account. The Borrowers agree that they will, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders and until the final expiration date of any Facility Letter of Credit and thereafter as long as any amount is payable to the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Lenders in respect of any Facility Letter of Credit, maintain a special collateral account pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (the “Facility Letter of Credit Collateral Account”), in the name of Borrowers but under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders. The Borrowers hereby pledge, assign and grant to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Letter of Credit Issuer, a security interest in all of the Borrowers’ right, title and interest in and to all funds which may from time to time be on deposit in the Facility Letter of Credit Collateral Account to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Obligations.

2.15    Replacement of Lender. If the Borrowers are required pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2 to make any additional payment to any Lender, or if any Lender declines to approve an amendment or waiver that is approved by the Required Lenders but that requires the consent of

all Lenders or all affected Lenders to become effective, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender (any Lender so affected an “Affected Lender”), the Borrowers may elect, if such amounts continue to be charged or such suspension is still effective, to replace such Affected Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to such Affected Lender, which such notice shall specify an effective date for such replacement, which date shall not be later than fifteen (15) Business Days after the date such notice is given, provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, and provided further that, concurrently with such replacement, (a) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and, to the Borrowers’ and the Administrative Agent’s reasonable satisfaction, which other bank or entity does not suffer from and is not impacted by the issue or event causing the replacement of the Affected Lender, shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash at par the Advances and other Obligations due to the Affected Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents pursuant to an assignment substantially in the form of Exhibit C and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Affected Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of Section 12.3 applicable to assignments, and (b) the Borrowers shall pay to such Affected Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Affected Lender by the Borrowers hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Affected Lender. If the Affected Lender shall refuse or fail to execute and deliver any such assignment prior to the effective date of such replacement, Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, execute and deliver such assignment in the name or and on behalf of Affected Lender, and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent executes and delivers such assignment, the Affected Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such assignment. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or be replaced if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and replacement cease to apply.

2.16    Limitation of Interest. The Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders intend to strictly comply with all applicable laws, including applicable usury laws. Accordingly, the provisions of this Section 2.16 shall govern and control over every other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document which conflicts or is inconsistent with this Section 2.16, even if such provision declares that it controls. As used in this Section 2.16, the term “interest” includes the aggregate of all charges, fees, benefits or other compensation which constitute interest under applicable law, provided that, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) any non-principal payment shall be characterized as an expense or as compensation for something other than the use, forbearance or detention of money and not as interest, and (b) all interest at any time contracted for, reserved, charged or received shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread, in equal parts during the full term of this Agreement. In no event shall the Borrowers or any other Person be obligated to pay, or any Lender have any right or privilege to reserve, receive or retain, (x) any interest in excess of the maximum amount of nonusurious interest permitted under the applicable laws (if any) of the United States or of any applicable state, or (y) total interest in excess of the amount which such Lender could lawfully have contracted for, reserved, received, retained or charged had the interest been calculated for the full term of this Agreement at the Highest Lawful Rate. None of the terms and provisions contained

35

QB\85665838.185665838.5

in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document which directly or indirectly relate to interest shall ever be construed without reference to this Section 2.16, or be construed to create a contract to pay for the use, forbearance or detention of money at an interest rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate.

2.17    Defaulting Lenders.

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

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

(ii)    Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.1 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder; third, to cash collateralize the Letter of Credit Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.17(d); fourth, as the Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to be held in a deposit account (including the Facility Letter of Credit Collateral Account) and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) cash collateralize the Letter of Credit Issuer’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Facility Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.17(d); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Letter of Credit Issuer as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; eighth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent, distributed to the Lenders other than the Defaulting Lender until the ratio of the Revolving

36

QB\85665838.185665838.5

Exposures of such Lenders to the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Exposures of all Revolving Lenders equals such ratio immediately prior to the Defaulting Lender’s failure to fund any portion of any Loans or participations in Facility Letters of Credit; and ninth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Facility Letter of Credit issuances in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Facility Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Credit Extensions of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Credit Extensions of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Obligations are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii)    Certain Fees.

(1)    For commitment fees: No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(2)    Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its ratable share of the stated amount of Facility Letters of Credit for which it has provided cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.17(d).

(3)    With respect to any fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (1) or (2) above, the Borrowers shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Obligations that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the Letter of Credit Issuer the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to the Letter of Credit Issuer’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv)    Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Obligations shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their

37

QB\85665838.185665838.5

respective Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrowers shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v)    Cash Collateral. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, cash collateralize the Letter of Credit Issuer’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.17(d).

(b)    Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer agree in writing to allow a Defaulting Lender to cure its default hereunder (“Permission to Cure”), the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Facility Letters of Credit to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Revolving Commitments (without giving effect to Section 2.17(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Defaulting Lender shall be allowed to cure its default hereunder in accordance with the foregoing requirements of this Section 2.17(b) without Permission to Cure if (i) such default arises out of such Lender’s failure to fund all or any portion of its Loans, or its failure to pay the Administrative Agent or any other Lender any amount required hereunder, within one (1) Business Day after the date due; and (ii) such default has not occurred more than twice before the pending default to be cured.

(c)    New Facility Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Facility Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

38

QB\85665838.185665838.5

(d)    Cash Collateral. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one (1) Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or the Letter of Credit Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the Borrowers shall cash collateralize the Letter of Credit Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.17(a)(iv) and any cash collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount.

(i)    Grant of Security Interest. The Borrowers, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Letter of Credit Issuer, and agree to maintain, a first priority security interest in all cash collateral as security for the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations, to be applied pursuant to clause (ii) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that cash collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer as herein provided, or that the total amount of such cash collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrowers will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional cash collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any cash collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(ii)    Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, cash collateral provided under this Section 2.17 in respect of Facility Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations (including, as to cash collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the cash collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such Property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(iii)    Termination of Requirement. Cash collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the Letter of Credit Issuer’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.17(d) following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer that there exists excess cash collateral; provided that, subject to this Section 2.17 the Person providing cash collateral and the Letter of Credit Issuer may agree that cash collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations and provided further that to the extent that such cash collateral was provided by the Borrower, such cash collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

ARTICLE III

YIELD PROTECTION; TAXES

3.1    Yield Protection. If, on or after the date of this Agreement, there occurs any Change in Law which:

(a)    subjects any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation, the Letter of Credit Issuer, or the Administrative Agent to any Taxes (other than with respect to Indemnified Taxes, Excluded Taxes, and Other Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, or

(b)    imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the Letter of Credit Issuer), or

(c)    imposes any other condition (other than Taxes) the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the Letter of Credit Issuer of making, funding or maintaining its Loans, or of issuing or participating in Facility Letters of Credit, or reduces any amount receivable by any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with its Loans, Facility Letters of Credit or participations therein, or requires any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the Letter of Credit Issuer to make any payment calculated by reference to the amount of Loans, Facility Letters of Credit or participations therein held or interest or Letter of Credit Fees received by it, by an amount deemed material by such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer as the case may be,

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Person of making or maintaining its Loans or Revolving Commitment or of issuing or participating in Facility Letters of Credit or to reduce the amount received by such Person in connection with such Loans or Revolving Commitment, Facility Letters of Credit or participations therein, then, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Person, the Borrowers shall pay such Person, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Person for such increased cost or reduction in amount received. Failure or delay on the part of any such Person to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.1 shall not constitute a waiver of such Person’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Person pursuant to this Section 3.1 for any increased costs or reductions suffered more than 270 days prior to the date that such Person notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Person’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 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

3.2    Changes in Capital Adequacy Regulations. If a Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer determines that the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by

40

QB\85665838.185665838.5

such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, any Lending Installation of such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, or any corporation or holding company controlling such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer is increased as a result of (a) a Change in Law or (b) any change on or after the date of this Agreement in the Risk-Based Capital Guidelines, then, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Borrowers shall pay such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer the amount necessary to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital or liquidity which such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer determines is attributable to this Agreement, its Term Loans, its Revolving Exposure or its Revolving Commitment to make Revolving Loans and issue or participate in Facility Letters of Credit, as the case may be, hereunder (after taking into account such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s policies as to capital adequacy or liquidity), in each case that is attributable to such Change in Law or change in the Risk-Based Capital Guidelines, as applicable. Failure or delay on the part of such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate any Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to this Section 3.2 for any shortfall suffered more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law or change in the Risk-Based Capital Guidelines giving rise to such shortfall and of such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further, that if the Change in Law or change in Risk-Based Capital Guidelines giving rise to such shortfall is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

3.3    Taxes.

(a)    Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then the applicable Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.3) the applicable Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Administrative Agent receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b)    The Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c)    The Borrowers shall indemnify the Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Administrative Agent, within fifteen (15) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.3) payable or paid by such Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Administrative

41

QB\85665838.185665838.5

Agent or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Administrative Agent and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.

(d)    Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within fifteen (15) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.2(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (d).

(e)    As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.3, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(f)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(1)    any Lender that is a United States Person for U.S. federal income Tax purposes shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter

42

upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax;

(2)    any Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

a)    in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income Tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such Tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such Tax treaty;

b)    executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

c)    in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to any Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W- 8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or

d)    to the extent a Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, IRS Form W-8IMY or IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable.

(3)    any Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under

43

QB\85665838.185665838.5

this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(4)    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 Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers 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 Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(i)    Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g)    If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.3 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.3), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 3.3 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than

44

QB\85665838.185665838.5

the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h)    Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.3 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(c)    The Administrative Agent may at any time or from time to time after funds are deposited in the Facility Letter of Credit Collateral Account, apply such funds to the payment of the Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other amounts as shall from time to time have become due and payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders or the Letter of Credit Issuer under the Loan Documents, as provided in Section 8.2.

(d)    At any time while any Event of Default is continuing, neither the Borrowers nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through the Borrowers shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the Facility Letter of Credit Collateral Account.

(a)    without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, extend the final maturity of any Loan, or extend the expiry date of any Facility Letter of Credit to a date after the Revolving Loan Maturity Date (except to the extent expressly permitted hereby for Facility Letters of Credit that have been cash collateralized) or postpone any regularly scheduled payment of principal of any Loan (excluding mandatory repayments, which shall require the consent of all Lenders) or forgive all or any portion of the principal amount thereof or any Reimbursement Obligation related thereto, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon or Reimbursement Obligations related thereto or increase the amount of any Commitment of such Lender hereunder (provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary (x) to amend Section 2.5.2 or to waive the obligation of Borrowers to pay default interest as set forth in Section 2.5.2 or (y) to amend any financial covenant (or any defined term directly or indirectly used therein), even if the effect of such amendment would be to reduce the rate of interest applicable to any (1) Loan or (2) other Obligation solely by virtue of abstaining from the application of the Default Rate thereon, or to reduce any fee payable hereunder);

(b)    without the consent of all of the Lenders, amend the definition of “Required Lenders” or “Pro Rata Share,” or amend any of the provisions hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder;

(c)    without the consent of all of the Lenders, amend Section 8.2, this Section 8.3 or Section 11.2; provided, that the foregoing limitation in respect of Section 11.2 shall not prohibit each Lender directly affected thereby from consenting to the extension of the final maturity date of its Loans or expiry date of its Facility Letters of Credit beyond the Revolving Loan Maturity Date as contemplated by Section 8.3(a) above;

QB\85665838.185665838.5

8.4    Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission of the Lenders, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Administrative Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, and the making of a Credit Extension notwithstanding the existence of an Event of Default or the inability of the Borrowers to satisfy the conditions precedent to such Credit Extension shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence. Any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Lenders required pursuant to Section 8.3, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth.

The obligations of the Borrowers under this Section 9.6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

9.7    Numbers of Documents. All statements, notices, closing documents, and requests hereunder shall be furnished to the Administrative Agent with sufficient counterparts so that the Administrative Agent may furnish one to each of the Lenders.

With respect to each Borrower’s Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of such Borrower hereunder with respect to Loans or other Credit Extensions made to any other Borrower hereunder, such Borrower waives, until the Obligations shall have been paid in full and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall have been terminated, any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which the Administrative Agent or any Lender now has or may hereafter have against such other Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to secure payment of the Obligations or any other liability of the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders.

(f)    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other of the Loan Documents, the obligations of each Borrower hereunder shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or any comparable provisions of any applicable Debtor Relief Laws.

The Administrative Agent shall have no implied duties to the Lenders, or any obligation to the Lenders to take any action thereunder except any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents to be taken by the Administrative Agent.

10.3    General Immunity. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to the Borrowers, the Lenders or any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them in the role of, or on behalf of, the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith except to the extent there has been a final determination, whether by mutual agreement or judicial finding, that such action or inaction was due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person.

10.4    No Responsibility for Loans, Recitals, etc. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify (a) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with any Loan Document or any borrowing hereunder; (b) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of any obligor under any Loan Document, including, without

QB\85665838.185665838.5

limitation, any agreement by an obligor to furnish information directly to each Lender; (c) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article IV, except receipt of items required to be delivered solely to the Administrative Agent; (d) the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default; (e) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness, sufficiency or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection therewith; (f) the value, sufficiency, creation, perfection or priority of any Lien in any collateral security; or (g) the financial condition of the Borrowers or any Guarantor of any of the Obligations or of any of the Borrowers’ or any such Guarantor’s respective Subsidiaries.

10.5    Action on Instructions of Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder and under any other Loan Document in accordance with written instructions signed by the Required Lenders (which may include electronic mail), and such instructions and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders. The Lenders hereby acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to take any discretionary action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall be requested in writing to do so by the Required Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder and under any other Loan Document unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent may, at any time, request instructions from the Required Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which, by the terms of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant without consent or approval from the Required Lenders, and if such instructions are promptly requested, the Administrative Agent will be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval under any of the Loan Documents and will not have any liability for refraining from taking any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it has received such instructions from the Required Lenders.

10.6    Employment of Agents and Counsel. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties as Administrative Agent hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact. The Administrative Agent will not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact except to the extent that there has been a final determination, whether by mutual agreement or judicial finding, that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of agents or attorneys-in-fact.

10.7    Reliance on Documents; Counsel. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any Note, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex, electronic mail message, statement, paper or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons, and, in respect to legal matters, upon the opinion of counsel selected by the Administrative Agent, which counsel may be employees of the Administrative Agent. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Sections 4.1 and 4.2, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory

81

QB\85665838.185665838.5

to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the applicable date specifying its objection thereto.

10.8    Administrative Agent’s Reimbursement and Indemnification. The Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent ratably in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares (i) for any amounts not reimbursed by the Borrowers for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to reimbursement by the Borrowers under the Loan Documents, (ii) for any other expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, for any expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any dispute between the Administrative Agent and any Lender or between two or more of the Lenders) and (iii) for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any other document delivered in connection therewith or the transactions contemplated thereby (including, without limitation, for any such amounts incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in connection with any dispute between the Administrative Agent and any Lender or between two or more of the Lenders), or the enforcement of any of the terms of the Loan Documents or of any such other documents, provided that (i) no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent any of the foregoing is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent and (ii) any indemnification required pursuant to Section 3.3(d) shall, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10.8, be paid by the relevant Lender in accordance with the provisions thereof. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 10.8 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

10.9    Notice of Event of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrowers referring to this Agreement describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders; provided that, except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

10.10    Rights as a Lender. In the event the Administrative Agent is a Lender, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder and under any other Loan Document with respect to its Revolving Commitment and its Loans as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, at any time when the Administrative Agent is a Lender, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or other transaction, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries in

82

QB\85665838.185665838.5

which the Borrowers or Subsidiaries is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person.

10.11    Lender Credit Decision, Legal Representation.

(a)    Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements prepared by the Borrowers and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Except for any notice, report, document or other information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility (either initially or on a continuing basis) to provide any Lender with any notice, report, document, credit information or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent (whether or not in their capacity as Administrative Agent) or any of their Affiliates; provided, that Administrative Agent shall promptly provide to each Lender such information as may be specifically requested by such Lender.

(b)    Each Lender further acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to be represented by legal counsel in connection with its execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, that it has made its own evaluation of all applicable laws and regulations relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and that the counsel to the Administrative Agent represents only the Administrative Agent and not the Lenders in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

10.12    Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and Holdings, such resignation to be effective upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent or, if no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, thirty (30) days after the resigning Administrative Agent gives notice of its intention to resign. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint, on behalf of the Borrowers and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent. So long as no Event of Default has occurred, Holdings shall have the right to approve any such successor Administrative Agent and such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders within fifteen (15) days after the resigning Administrative Agent’s giving notice of its intention to resign, then the resigning Administrative Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Borrowers and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Administrative Agent may at any time without the consent of the Borrowers or any Lender, appoint any of its Affiliates which is a commercial bank as a successor Administrative Agent hereunder. If the Administrative Agent has resigned and no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, the Lenders may perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and the Borrowers shall make all payments in respect of the Obligations to the

83

QB\85665838.185665838.5

applicable Lender and for all other purposes shall deal directly with the Lenders. No successor Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be appointed hereunder until such successor Administrative Agent has accepted the appointment. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Administrative Agent. Upon the effectiveness of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the resigning Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents. After the effectiveness of the resignation of an Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall continue in effect for the benefit of such Administrative Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. In the event that there is a successor to the Administrative Agent by merger, or the Administrative Agent assigns its duties and obligations to an Affiliate pursuant to this Section 10.12, then the term “Prime Rate” as used in this Agreement shall mean the prime rate or other analogous rate of the new Administrative Agent.

10.13    Delegation to Affiliates. The Borrowers and the Lenders agree that the Administrative Agent may delegate any of its duties under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates. Any such Affiliate (and such Affiliate’s directors, officers, agents and employees) which performs duties in connection with this Agreement shall be entitled to the same benefits of the indemnification, waiver and other protective provisions to which the Administrative Agent is entitled under Articles IX and X.

10.14    Execution of Collateral Documents. The Lenders hereby empower and authorize the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver to the Borrowers on their behalf the Collateral Documents and all related financing statements and any financing statements, agreements, documents or instruments as shall be necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of the Collateral Documents.

10.15    Collateral and Guarantor Releases. The Lenders hereby empower and authorize the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver to the Borrowers on their behalf any agreements, documents or instruments as shall be necessary or appropriate to effect any releases of Collateral which shall be permitted by the terms hereof or of any other Loan Document (including, without limitation, in connection with any asset sale permitted hereunder or in connection with any release of a Guarantor made in accordance with the Loan Documents) or which shall otherwise have been approved by the Required Lenders (or, if required by the terms of Section 8.3, all of the Lenders) in writing. In addition, the Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents if such Person is no longer required to be a Guarantor hereunder or if such Person is sold, transferred or assigned in accordance with and to the extent permitted by the terms of this Agreement. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of Collateral, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents pursuant to the foregoing. In each case as specified herein, the Administrative Agent may (and each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to), at the Borrowers’ expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Borrower such documents as such Borrower may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the security interest granted under the

84

QB\85665838.185665838.5

Loan Documents or to subordinate its interest therein, or to release a Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

10.16    No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. 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 Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the applicable Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, (B) each Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) each Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the applicable Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any obligation to each Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrowers and their Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrowers or its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrowers hereby waive and release any claims that they may have against the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby. Nothing contained in this Section 10.16 shall serve to release, eliminate, or otherwise reduce any duty or obligation of any party to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

10.17    Acknowledgements Regarding Erroneous Payments.

        (a)    Each Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer hereby agrees that (i) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer (whether or not known to such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect,

85

QB\85665838.185665838.5

and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer under this Section 10.17 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

        (b)    Each Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (i) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (ii) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

        (c)    Borrowers and Guarantors hereby agree that (i) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to such amount and (ii) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by any Borrower or Guarantor.

    (d)    Each party’s obligations under this Section 10.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or a Letter of Credit Issuer, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.

ARTICLE XI

SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS

11.1    Setoff. Each Borrower hereby grants each Lender a security interest in all deposits, credits and deposit accounts (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) of the applicable Borrower with such Lender or any Affiliate of such Lender (the “Deposits”) to secure the Obligations. In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of the Lenders under applicable law, if the applicable Borrower becomes insolvent, however evidenced, or any Event of Default occurs, such Borrower authorizes each Lender, with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, to offset and apply all such Deposits toward the payment of the Obligations owing to such Lender, whether or not the Obligations, or any part thereof, shall then be due and regardless of the existence or adequacy of any collateral, guaranty or any other security, right or remedy available to such Lender or the Lenders; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.17 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 Letter of Credit Issuer, and the Lenders, and (y) 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 setoff.

11.2    Ratable Payments. If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it upon its Term Loan or its Revolving Exposure (other than payments received pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, or 3.3) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Lender, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of the Term Loan or Revolving Exposure, as applicable, held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan and Revolving Exposure. If any Lender, whether in connection with setoff or amounts which might be subject to setoff or otherwise, receives collateral or other protection for its Obligations or such amounts which may be subject to setoff, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to take such action necessary such that all Lenders share in the benefits of such collateral or other protection ratably in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares of the Term Loan and Revolving Exposure. In case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made.

ARTICLE XII

BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS

12.1    Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) none of the Borrowers shall have the right to assign its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents without the prior written

87

QB\85665838.185665838.5

consent of each Lender, (ii) any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance with Section 12.3, and (iii) any transfer by participation must be made in compliance with Section 12.2. Any attempted assignment or transfer by any party not made in compliance with this Section 12.1 shall be null and void, unless such attempted assignment or transfer is treated as a participation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that clause (ii) of this Section 12.1 relates only to absolute assignments and this Section 12.1 does not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, (x) any pledge or assignment by any Lender of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to a Federal Reserve Bank or (y) in the case of a Lender which is a Fund, any pledge or assignment of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to its trustee in support of its obligations to its trustee; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment creating a security interest shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder unless and until the parties thereto have complied with the provisions of Section 12.3. The Administrative Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan or which holds any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until such Person complies with Section 12.3; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may in its discretion (but shall not be required to) follow instructions from the Person which made any Loan or which holds any Note to direct payments relating to such Loan or Note to another Person. Any assignee of the rights to any Loan or any Note agrees by acceptance of such assignment to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. Any request, authority or consent of any Person, who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the owner of the rights to any Loan (whether or not a Note has been issued in evidence thereof), shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder or assignee of the rights to such Loan.

12.2    Participations.

(a)    Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more entities (“Participants”) participating interests in any Term Loan or Revolving Exposure owing to such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Revolving Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents. So long as no Event of Default has occurred, Holdings shall have the right to approve any such successor Participants and such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the owner of its Term Loan and Revolving Exposure and the holder of any Note issued to it in evidence thereof for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by the Borrowers under this Agreement shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents.

(b)    Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents provided that each such Lender may agree in its participation

88

QB\85665838.185665838.5

agreement with its Participant that such Lender will not vote to approve any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Term Loan, Revolving Exposure or Revolving Commitment in which such Participant has an interest which would require consent of all of the Lenders pursuant to the terms of Section 8.3 or of any other Loan Document.

(c)    Benefit of Certain Provisions. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1 in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under the Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under the Loan Documents, provided that each Lender shall retain the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1 with respect to the amount of participating interests sold to each Participant. The Lenders agree to share with each Participant, and each Participant, by exercising the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1, agrees to share with each Lender, any amount received pursuant to the exercise of its right of setoff, such amounts to be shared in accordance with Section 11.2 as if each Participant were a Lender. The Borrowers further agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 9.6 and 9.10 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.3, provided that (i) a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.1 or 3.2 than the Lender who sold the participating interest to such Participant would have received had it retained such interest for its own account, unless the sale of such interest to such Participant is made with the prior written consent of the Borrowers, and (ii) a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.3 than the Lender who sold the participating interest to such Participant would have received had it retained such interest for its own account (A) except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in treaty, law or regulation (or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority) that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation and (B), in the case of any Participant that would be a Non-U.S. Lender if it were a Lender, such Participant agrees to comply with the provisions of Section 3.3 to the same extent as if it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.3(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender). Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, 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 any Term Loan, any Revolving Exposure, any Note, any Revolving Commitment or any other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Term Loan, any Revolving Exposure, any Note, any Revolving Commitment or any other obligations under the Loan Documents) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Term Loan, Revolving Exposure, any Note, any Revolving Commitment or any other obligations under the Loan Documents 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

89

QB\85665838.185665838.5

participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

12.3    Assignments.

(a)    Permitted Assignments. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (“Purchasers”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents subject to Holdings’ consent rights provided in Section 12.3(b), which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such assignment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit C or in such other form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent as may be agreed to by the parties thereto. Each such assignment with respect to a Purchaser which is not a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender shall either be in an amount equal to the entire applicable Term Loan, Revolving Commitment and Revolving Exposure of the assigning Lender or (unless each of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents) be in an aggregate amount not less than $5,000,000 (except such minimum amount shall not apply to (i) an assignment or delegation by any Lender to any other Lender, an Affiliate of any Lender, or a Related Fund of such Lender or (ii) a group of new Lenders, each of which is an Affiliate of each other or a Related Fund of such new Lender to the extent that the aggregate amount to be assigned to all such new Lenders is at least $5,000,000). The amount of the assignment shall be based on the Term Loan and the Revolving Commitment or Revolving Exposure (if the Revolving Commitment has been terminated) subject to the assignment, determined as of the date of such assignment or as of the “Trade Date,” if the “Trade Date” is specified in the assignment.

(b)    Consents. The consent of Holdings shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective unless the Purchaser is a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, provided that the consent of Holdings shall not be required if (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) in connection with an assignment or a delegation to a Person that is a Lender or an Affiliate (other than natural persons) of a Lender, (iii) if such assignment or delegation is in connection with a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of any Lender’s loan portfolio, or (iv) such assignment or delegation is required or deemed advisable by any Governmental Authority to which Administrative Agent or any Lender is subject; provided further that Holdings shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within three (3) Business Days after having received notice thereof. The consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective. The consent of the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be required prior to an assignment of a Revolving Commitment becoming effective. Any consent required under this Section 12.3(b) other than with respect to the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(c)    Effect; Assignment Effective Date. Upon (i) delivery to the Administrative Agent of an assignment, together with any consents required by Sections 12.3(a) and 12.3(b), and (ii) payment of a $5,000 fee to the Administrative Agent for processing such assignment (unless such fee is waived by the Administrative Agent), such assignment

QB\85665838.185665838.5

shall become effective on the effective date specified in such assignment. The assignment shall contain a representation by the Purchaser to the effect that none of the consideration used to make the purchase of the Term Loan, Revolving Commitment and Revolving Exposure, as applicable, under the applicable assignment agreement constitutes “plan assets” as defined under ERISA and that the rights and interests of the Purchaser in and under the Loan Documents will not be “plan assets” under ERISA. On and after the effective date of such assignment, such Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Document executed by or on behalf of the Lenders and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party thereto, and the transferor Lender shall be released with respect to the Term Loan, Revolving Commitment and Revolving Exposure assigned to such Purchaser without any further consent or action by the Borrowers, the Lenders or the Administrative Agent. In the case of an assignment covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of, and subject to, those provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents which survive payment of the Obligations and termination of the applicable agreement. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 12.3 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 Section 12.2. Upon the consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 12.3(c), the transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall, if the transferor Lender or the Purchaser desires that its Loans be evidenced by Notes, make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes are issued to such transferor Lender and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Purchaser, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their respective Term Loans and Revolving Commitments, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment.

(d)    Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non- fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States of America, 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 Term Loans and Revolving Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender, and participations of each Lender in Facility Letters of Credit, pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, 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, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by each Borrower and each Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e)    Dissemination of Information. The Borrowers authorize each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Purchaser or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender’s possession; provided that each Transferee and prospective Transferee agrees to be bound by Section 9.11 of this

Agreement.
