WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the Borrowers may establish Additional Term B-1 Commitments (the “Additional Term B-1 Commitments”) with existing Term Lenders and/or Additional Term B-1 Lenders; and

WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, Additional Term B-1 Lenders shall become Lenders pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Each Additional Term B-1 Lender hereby agrees to provide the Additional Term B-1 Commitment set forth on its signature page hereto pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.01(c) of the Credit Agreement. The Additional Term B-1 Commitments provided pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to all of the terms in the Credit Agreement and to the conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the Guarantees and security interests created by the Collateral Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, each Additional Term B-1 Lender hereby consents to Amendment No. 1 to the Credit Agreement.

Each Additional Term B-1 Lender, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent acknowledge and agree that the Additional Term B-1 Commitments provided pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute Term B-1 Commitments for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other applicable Loan Documents. Each Additional Term B-1 Lender hereby agrees to make an Additional Term B-1 Loan to the Borrowers in an amount equal to its Additional Term B-1 Commitment on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date in accordance with Section 2.01(c) of the Credit Agreement.


Each Additional Term B-1 Lender (i) confirms that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with copies of the financial statements referred to therein and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement; (ii) agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or any other Additional Term B-1 Lender or any other Lender or Agent 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 the Credit Agreement; (iii) appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (iv) agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Credit Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

Upon (i) the execution of a counterpart of this Agreement by each Additional Term B-1 Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower and (ii) the delivery to the Administrative Agent of a fully executed counterpart (including by way of telecopy or other electronic transmission) hereof, each of the undersigned Additional Term B-1 Lenders shall become Lenders under the Credit Agreement and shall have the respective Additional Term B-1 Commitment set forth on its signature page hereto, effective as of the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date.

For each Additional Term B-1 Lender, delivered herewith to the Administrative Agent are such forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters as such Additional Term B-1 Lender may be required to deliver to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.01(a) of the Credit Agreement.

This Agreement may not be amended, modified or waived except by an instrument or instruments in writing signed and delivered on behalf of each of the parties hereto.

This Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and verbal, among the parties or any of them with respect to the subject matter hereof.

THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 

B-2


Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as would be enforceable.

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement.

 

B-3


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the undersigned has caused its duly authorized officer to execute and deliver this Joinder Agreement as of April [        ], 2012.
