If offers are made by two or more Lenders with the same Competitive Bid Margins or Absolute Rates, as the case may be, for a greater aggregate principal amount than the amount in respect of which offers are permitted to be accepted for the related Interest Period, the principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans in respect of which such offers are accepted shall be allocated by the Agent among such Lenders as nearly as possible (in such multiples as the Agent may deem appropriate) in proportion to the aggregate principal amount of such offers. Allocations by the Agent of the amounts of Competitive Bid Loans shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The Agent shall promptly, but in any event by 11:00 a.m. (Local Time) on the first Business Day prior to the Borrowing Date, in the case of Indexed Rate Advances, and by 12:00 noon (Local Time) on the same Business Day, in the case of Absolute Rate Advances, notify each Lender of its receipt of a Competitive Bid Borrowing Notice and the aggregate principal amount of each Competitive Bid Advance allocated to each participating Lender.

(viii) Administration Fee. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay to the Agent, for the Agent’s own account, an administration fee per Competitive Bid Quote Request transmitted by the Borrower to the Agent pursuant to Section 2.11(ii) equal to $200 times the number of Lenders that submit Competitive Bid Quotes in response to such Competitive Bid Quote Request. Such fee shall be payable on the proposed Borrowing Date for the Competitive Bid Advance, regardless of whether any Competitive Bid Loans are made on such proposed Borrowing Date.

2.12.1. Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate multiplied by such Lender’s Available Commitment (or, from and after the Commitment Termination Date, such Lender’s average daily Outstanding Credit Exposure) from the Closing Date to and including the Commitment Termination Date, payable quarterly in arrears within fifteen (15) days after the last day of each calendar quarter hereafter and on the Commitment Termination Date.

2.12.2. Term-Out Fee. In the event the Borrower elects to exercise the Term-Out Option under Section 2.24, then, on the Commitment Termination Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent, for the account of each Lender, a term-out fee equal to 0.75% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Loans in respect of which the Maturity Date is being extended pursuant to the exercise of the Term-Out Option in accordance with Section 2.24 on the Term-Out Date.

2.13. Rates Applicable After Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.8 or 2.9, during the continuance of a Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Borrower (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that no Advance may be made as, converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Advance. During the continuance of a Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Borrower (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that (i) each Eurocurrency Advance and Competitive Bid Advance shall bear interest for the remainder of the applicable Interest Period at the rate otherwise applicable to such Interest Period plus 2% per annum and (ii) each Floating Rate Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate in effect from time to time plus 2% per annum; provided, however, that, during the continuance of a Default under Section 7.6 or 7.7, the interest rates set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above shall be applicable to all Advances without any election or action on the part of the Agent or any Lender.

2.14. Method of Payment. (i) Each Advance shall be repaid and each payment of interest thereon shall be paid in the currency in which such Advance was made or, where such currency has converted to the Euro, in the Euro. All payments of the Obligations hereunder shall be made, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim, in immediately available funds to the Agent at (except as set forth in the next sentence) the Agent’s address specified pursuant to Article XIII, or at any other Lending Installation of the Agent specified in writing by the Agent to the Borrower, by 12:00 noon (Local Time) on the date when due and shall be applied ratably by the Agent among the Lenders. All payments to be made by the Borrower hereunder in any currency other than Dollars shall be made in such currency on the date due in such funds as may then be customary for the settlement of international transactions in such currency for the account of the Agent, at its Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency and shall be applied ratably by the Agent among the Lenders. Each payment delivered to the Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly by the Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds that the Agent received at, (a) with respect to Floating Rate Loans and Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars, its address specified pursuant to Article XIII or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by the Agent from such Lender and (b) with respect to Eurocurrency Loans denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, in the funds received from the Borrower at the address of the Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if, after the making of any Advance in any currency other than Dollars, currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the country which issues such currency with the result that the type of currency in which the Advance was made (the “Original Currency”) no longer exists or the Borrower is not able to make payment to the Agent for the account of the Lenders in such Original Currency, then all payments to be made by the Borrower hereunder in such currency shall instead be made when due in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of repayment) of such payment due, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the Borrower take all risks of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulations.

2.15. Noteless Agreement; Evidence of Indebtedness. (i) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower 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.

(ii) The Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (a) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Agreed Currency and Type thereof and the Interest Period with respect thereto, (b) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (c) the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.

(iii) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (i) and (ii) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of the Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms.

(iv) Any Lender may request that its Loans be evidenced by a promissory note (a “Note”). In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender in the form of Exhibit D-1 or D-2 or both, as applicable. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 12.3) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the payee named therein or any assignee pursuant to Section 12.3, except to the extent that any such Lender or assignee subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in paragraphs (i) and (ii) above.

2.16. Telephonic Notices. In the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, the Borrower hereby authorizes the Lenders and the Agent to extend, convert or continue Advances, effect selections of Types of Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices made by any person or persons the Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of the Borrower, it being understood that the foregoing authorization is specifically intended to allow Borrowing Notices and Conversion/Continuation Notices to be given telephonically solely in connection with Loans denominated in Dollars. The Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to the Agent a written confirmation, if such confirmation is requested by the Agent or any Lender, of each such telephonic notice signed by an Authorized Officer. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Agent and the Lenders shall govern absent manifest error.

2.17. Interest Payment Dates; Interest and Fee Basis. Interest accrued on each Floating Rate Advance shall be payable on each Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, on any date on which such Floating Rate Advance is prepaid, whether due to acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest accrued on that portion of the outstanding principal amount of any Floating Rate Advance converted into a Eurocurrency Advance on a day other than a Payment Date shall be payable on the date of conversion. Interest accrued on each Eurocurrency Advance or Indexed Rate Advance shall be payable on the last day of its applicable Interest Period, on any date on which the Eurocurrency Advance or Indexed Rate Advance is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest accrued on each Eurocurrency Advance or Indexed Rate Advance having an Interest Period longer than three months shall also be payable on the last day of each three-month interval during such Interest Period. Interest accrued on each Absolute Rate Advance shall be payable on the last day of its applicable Interest Period, on the date on which the Absolute Rate Advance is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, at maturity, and on such intervening dates prior to the maturity thereof as may be specified by the Borrower in the applicable Competitive Bid Quote Request and agreed to by the applicable Lender in the applicable Competitive Bid Quote. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest accrued pursuant to Section 2.13 shall be payable on demand. Interest on Eurocurrency Advances, Competitive Bid Advances and Commitment Fees shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year, and interest on Floating Rate Advances shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 365/366-day year (except for interest on Loans denominated in British Pounds Sterling which shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 365-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 noon (Local Time) at the place of payment. If any payment of principal of or interest on an Advance, any fees or any other amounts payable to the Agent or any Lender hereunder shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a principal payment, such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment.

2.18. Notification of Advances, Interest Rates, Prepayments and Commitment Reductions and Increases. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each Aggregate Commitment reduction notice, Borrowing Notice, Conversion/Continuation Notice and repayment notice received by it hereunder. The Agent will notify each Lender of the interest rate applicable to each Eurocurrency Advance promptly upon determination of such interest rate and will give each Lender prompt notice of each change in the Alternate Base Rate.

2.19. Lending Installations. Each Lender will book its Loans at the appropriate Lending Installation listed on the administration information sheets provided to the Agent in connection herewith or such other Lending Installation designated by such Lender in accordance with the final sentence of this Section 2.19. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation and the Loans and any Notes issued hereunder shall be deemed held by each Lender for the benefit of any such Lending Installation. Each Lender may, by written notice to the Agent and the Borrower in accordance with Article XIII, designate replacement or additional Lending Installations through which Loans will be made by it and for whose account Loan payments are to be made.

2.20. Non-Receipt of Funds by the Agent. Unless the Borrower or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Agent prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Agent of (i) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The 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 Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Agent, repay to the 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 Agent until the date the 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 days and, thereafter, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan or (y) in the case of payment by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan.

2.21. Replacement of Lender. If the Borrower is required pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 to make any additional payment to any Lender or if any Lender’s obligation to make or continue, or to convert Floating Rate Advances into, Eurocurrency Advances shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.3 or if a Lender does not approve a waiver or amendment with respect to this Agreement or if a Lender acting as Agent hereunder resigns, is removed or is replaced as Agent or if a Lender is a Defaulting Lender (any Lender so affected an “Affected Lender”), the Borrower may elect, if such amounts continue to be charged or such suspension is still effective or such resignation or removal has become effective, to replace such Affected Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement; provided, however, that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) an Eligible Assignee which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Agent shall

agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash at par the Loans and other Obligations due to the Affected Lender pursuant to an assignment substantially in the form of Exhibit E 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 (ii) the Borrower 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 Borrower hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Affected Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5.

2.22. Market Disruption. Notwithstanding the satisfaction of all conditions referred to in Article II and Article IV with respect to any Advance in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars, if there shall occur on or prior to the date of such Advance any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls which would in the reasonable opinion of the Agent or the Required Lenders make it impracticable for the Eurocurrency Loans comprising such Advance to be denominated in the Agreed Currency specified by the Borrower, then the Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders, and such Loans shall not be denominated in such Agreed Currency but shall be made on such Borrowing Date in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be, as Floating Rate Loans, unless the Borrower notifies the Agent at least one Business Day before such date that (i) it elects not to borrow on such date or (ii) it elects to borrow on such date in a different Agreed Currency, as the case may be, in which the denomination of such Loans would in the opinion of the Agent and the Required Lenders be practicable and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be.

2.23. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from the Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Agent’s main Chicago office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, the Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 12.2, such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the Borrower.

2.24. Term-Out Option. The Borrower may, by irrevocable written notice to the Agent given not fewer than five (5) Business Days prior to the Commitment Termination Date, elect (such election, the “Term-Out Option”), effective as of the Commitment Termination Date (the “Term-Out Date”), to extend the Maturity Date for all or a ratable portion of all Loans outstanding on such date to the first anniversary of the Commitment Termination Date; provided that such extension of the Maturity Date shall become effective only if, on the Term-Out Date, (a) there exists no Default or Unmatured Default, (b) the Borrower shall pay the term-out fee to the Agent for the account of each Lender pursuant to Section 2.12.2 and (c) the Borrower shall not have previously exercised the Term-Out Option. In the event the Maturity Date shall be so extended, (i) all Loans that are subject to extension pursuant to this Section 2.24 and outstanding on the Commitment Termination Date shall continue as Loans following such date, (ii) all Loans that are not subject to such extension but are outstanding on the Commitment Termination Date shall be repaid on such date, (iii) all of the Commitments will terminate on the Term-Out Date, and (iv) the Borrower may not borrow or reborrow any additional Loans on or after such date.

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

(i) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12.1;

(ii) the Commitment and Outstanding Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 8.2); provided, however, that (a) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender and (b) any amendment or modification that increases such Defaulting Lender’s commitment hereunder shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender; and

(iii) any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Article XI but excluding Section 2.21) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Agent in a segregated account and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent in the following order of priority: (a) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; (b) second, 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 Agent; (c) third, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrower, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender in respect of any Loans under this Agreement; (d) fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of

such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and (e) fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction, provided that, with respect to this clause (e), if such payment is (x) a prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans which such Defaulting Lender has funded and (y) made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 are satisfied, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of Loans of each non-Defaulting Lender prior to being applied to the prepayment of the Loans of such Defaulting Lender.

In the event that the Agent and the Borrower each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.

3.1. Yield Protection. If, on or after the Closing Date, the adoption of any law or any governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law), or any change in any such law, rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender or applicable Lending Installation with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency (any of the foregoing, a “Change in Law”; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder, issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “Change in Law” regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented):

(i) 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 (other than reserves and assessments reflected in the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances),

(ii) imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation of making, funding or maintaining its Loans or reduces any amount receivable by any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation in connection with its Loans, or requires any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation to make any payment calculated by reference to the amount of Loans held or interest received by it, by an amount deemed material by such Lender (in each case, other than with respect to any taxes and other than with respect to any cost reflected in the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances), or

(iii) subjects any Person to any taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities (including interest, additions to tax and penalties) with respect to the foregoing, on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto (other than Excluded Taxes and without duplication of any Taxes and Other Taxes indemnified by Section 3.5),

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Person or applicable Lending Installation of making or maintaining its Loans or Commitment or to reduce the return received by such Person or applicable Lending Installation in connection with such Loans or Commitment, then, within 15 days of demand by such Person, the Borrower shall pay such Person such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Person for such increased cost or reduction in amount received.

3.2. Changes in Capital Adequacy Regulations. If a Lender determines the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender, any Lending Installation of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender is increased as a result of a Change (as defined below), then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender, the Borrower shall pay such Lender 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 determines is attributable to this Agreement, its Loans or its Commitment to make Loans hereunder (after taking into account such Lender’s policies as to capital adequacy and liquidity). “Change” means (i) any change after the Closing Date in the Risk-Based Capital Guidelines (as defined below) or (ii) any adoption of, change in, or change in the interpretation or administration of any other law, governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline, interpretation, or directive (whether or not having the force of law) after the Closing Date which affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Lender or any Lending Installation or any corporation controlling any Lender (provided, however, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder, issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “Change” regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented). “Risk-Based Capital Guidelines” means (i) the risk-based capital guidelines in effect in the United States on the Closing Date, including transition rules, and (ii) the corresponding capital regulations promulgated by regulatory authorities outside the United States.

3.3.1. If (a) any Lender determines that the making or maintenance of its Eurocurrency Loans or Competitive Bid Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive, whether or not having the force of law, (b) the Required Lenders determine that (i) deposits of a type and maturity appropriate to match fund Eurocurrency Advances are not available or (ii) the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances does not accurately reflect the cost of making or maintaining Eurocurrency Advances, or (c) the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means (including, without limitation, by means of an Interpolated Rate) do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Reference Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate (including, without limitation, because the LIBOR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), then, in each case, for so long as any such circumstances exist, the Agent shall suspend the availability of Eurocurrency Advances and require any affected Eurocurrency Advances or Competitive Bid Advances to be repaid or converted to Floating Rate Advances, as applicable, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4.

3.3.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in Section 3.3.1(c) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in Section 3.3.1(c) have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the Eurocurrency Reference Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable (but for the avoidance of doubt, such related changes shall not include a reduction of the Applicable Eurocurrency Margin or the Applicable ABR Margin); provided that, if such alternate rate of interest as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.2, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this Section 3.3.2 (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 3.3.2, only to the extent the LIBOR Screen Rate for the applicable currency and such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), the Agent shall suspend the availability of Eurocurrency Advances and require any affected Eurocurrency Advances or Competitive Bid Advances to be repaid or converted to Floating Rate Advances, as applicable, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4.

3.4. Funding Indemnification. If any payment of a Eurocurrency Advance or Competitive Bid Advance occurs on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, whether because of acceleration, prepayment or otherwise (including, without limitation, prepayments required by Section 3.3), or a Eurocurrency Advance or Competitive Bid Advance is not made, continued or converted on the date specified by the Borrower for any reason other

than default by the applicable Lenders, or if an assignment of a Eurocurrency Advance or Competitive Bid Advance occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period therefor as the result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.21 (other than a request made to a Defaulting Lender), the Borrower will indemnify each Lender for any reasonable loss or cost incurred by it resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, any loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain such Advance.

3.5. Taxes. (i) All payments by the Borrower to or for the account of any Lender or the Agent hereunder or under any Note shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Taxes. If any Taxes are required to be deducted by law from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note by or on behalf of the Borrower to any Lender or the Agent, (a) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.5) such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (b) the Borrower shall make such deductions, (c) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law and (d) the Borrower shall furnish to the Agent the original copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof within 30 days after such payment is made.

(ii) In addition, the Borrower hereby agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar taxes or levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or under any Note or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Note (“Other Taxes”).

(iii) The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 3.5) paid by the Agent or such Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. Payments due under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days of the date the Agent or such Lender makes demand therefor pursuant to Section 3.6.

(iv) Each Lender that is a “U.S. Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall, within ten Business Days after the date such Lender becomes party to this Agreement, deliver to each of the Borrower and the Agent (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent) two duly completed copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.

(v) Each Lender that is not a U.S. Person (each a “Non-U.S. Lender”) agrees that, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, it shall, within ten Business Days after the date such Lender becomes party to this Agreement, deliver to each of the Borrower and the Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or W-8BEN-E, as applicable), W-8IMY (along with any applicable forms for its beneficial owners and any applicable statements, attachments, and certifications), or Form W-8ECI, or, in the case of a Non-U.S.

Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 and, as applicable, Forms W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, or W-8IMY (along with any applicable forms for beneficial owners, including Exhibit G-2, and any applicable statements, attachments, and certifications), certifying in each such case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without (or at a reduced rate of) deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes and that that such Lender is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax. Each Non-U.S. Lender further undertakes to deliver to each of the Borrower and the Agent (x) renewals or additional copies of such form (or any successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete, and (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, such additional forms or amendments thereto as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent. All forms or amendments described in the preceding sentence shall certify that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form or amendment with respect to it and such Lender advises the Borrower and the Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax.

(vi) For any period during which a Non-U.S. Lender has failed to provide the Borrower with an appropriate form pursuant to clause (v) or (vii) (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided), such Non-U.S. Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Section 3.5 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States; provided that, should a Non-U.S. Lender which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required under clause (v) or (vii), the Borrower shall take such steps as such Non-U.S. Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Non-U.S. Lender to recover such Taxes.

(vii) In addition to those certificates provided pursuant to clauses (iv) and (v) above, any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement or any Note pursuant to the law of any relevant jurisdiction or any treaty shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), upon the Borrower’s reasonable request, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission of any such documentation pursuant to this clause (vii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(viii) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent for any Taxes, Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes (but, in the case of any Taxes or Other Taxes, only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Agent for such Taxes or Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Agent in connection hereunder or under any Note and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such amounts were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant authority. The indemnity under this Section 3.5(viii) shall be paid within 10 days after the Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount so paid or payable by the Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or Note or otherwise payable by the Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this paragraph (viii).

(ix) If a payment made to a Lender hereunder or under any Note would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 3.5(ix), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date.

3.6. Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. To the extent reasonably possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its Eurocurrency Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrower to such Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5 or to avoid the unavailability of Eurocurrency Advances under Section 3.3, so long as such designation is not, in the judgment of such Lender, disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Lender shall use reasonable efforts to give prompt written notice to the Borrower upon becoming aware of the existence of any circumstances that would give rise to a claim for compensation by such Lender under Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 or that would result in the unavailability of Eurocurrency Advances under Section 3.3, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect any of such Lender’s rights hereunder. In determining the amount of compensation under Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5, each Lender shall act in good faith, and any demand for compensation under Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 shall be limited to increased costs, reductions in amounts received

and reduced returns incurred within 180 days of the date of such demand. Each Lender shall deliver a written statement of such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) as to the amount due, if any, under Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5. Such written statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error. Determination of amounts payable under such Sections in connection with a Eurocurrency Loan or Indexed Rate Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender funded such Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the interest rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not. Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount specified in the written statement of any Lender shall be payable on demand after receipt by the Borrower of such written statement. The obligations of the Borrower under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 and 3.5 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

4.1. Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective on the date (which may or may not be the date of the initial Loans hereunder) that the Borrower has furnished to the Agent:

The Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the date this Agreement becomes effective, and such notice shall be conclusive and binding on all parties to this Agreement.

4.2. Each Loan. No Lender shall be required to make any Loan (including its initial Loan) hereunder unless on the applicable Borrowing Date:

Each Borrowing Notice or Competitive Bid Borrowing Notice with respect to each such Loan shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that the conditions contained in Sections 4.2(i) and (ii) have been satisfied.

5.1. Existence and Standing. Each of the Borrower and the Guarantors is a corporation or, in the case of Subsidiaries only, a partnership or limited liability company duly and properly incorporated or organized, as the case may be, validly existing and (to the extent such concept applies to such entity) in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization and has all requisite authority to conduct its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted, except to the extent that the failure to be in good standing or to have such authority would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.2. Authorization and Validity. The Borrower and the Guarantors have the corporate power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver the Loan Documents to which they are a party and to perform their obligations thereunder. The execution and delivery by the Borrower and the Guarantors of the Loan Documents to which they are a party and the performance of their obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by proper corporate proceedings, and the Loan Documents to which the Borrower or such Guarantors are a party constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower or such Guarantors enforceable against the Borrower or such Guarantors in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity.

5.3. No Conflict; Government Consent. Neither the execution and delivery by the Borrower and the Guarantors of the Loan Documents, nor the consummation of the transactions therein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions thereof will (a) violate (i) in any material respect any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or award binding on the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, (ii) any material law, rule, regulation applicable to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, (iii) the Borrower’s or any Guarantor’s articles or certificate of incorporation, partnership agreement, certificate of partnership, articles or certificate of organization, by laws, or operating or other management agreement, as the case may be, or (iv) any material provision of any indenture, material instrument or material agreement to which the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or is subject, or by which it, or its Property, is bound, or (b) conflict with or constitute a default under any indenture, material instrument or material agreement, or (c) result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien in, of, or on the Property of the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to the terms of any indenture, material instrument or material agreement to which the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party. No approval or other action by, and no notice, registration or filing with, any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, which has not been obtained by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, is required to be obtained by the Borrower or any Guarantor in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, the borrowings under this Agreement, and the payment and performance by the Borrower of the Obligations.

5.4. Financial Statements. The consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2017 and the related consolidated statement of earnings and cash flows for the fiscal year then ended, heretofore delivered to the Lenders, were prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles in effect on the date such statements were prepared and present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries at such date and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the period then ended.

5.5. Material Adverse Change. As of the Closing Date, since December 31, 2017, there has been no material adverse change in the business, financial condition or results of operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

5.6. Taxes. The Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries have filed all material tax returns which are required to be filed and have paid all taxes due (including pursuant to said returns or pursuant to any assessment received by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), except for (i) those not yet delinquent, (ii) those the nonpayment of which would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (iii) those being contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles.

5.7. Litigation. As of the Closing Date and except as disclosed in the Borrower’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, there is no litigation, arbitration, governmental investigation, proceeding or inquiry pending or, to the knowledge of any of the Responsible Officers, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and which, if adversely determined, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which seeks to prevent, enjoin or delay the making of any Loans.

5.8. ERISA. Each Plan complies in all material respects with all applicable requirements of law and regulations, no Reportable Event has occurred with respect to any Plan, neither the Borrower nor any other member of the Controlled Group has withdrawn from any Multiemployer Plan or initiated steps to do so, and no steps have been taken to reorganize or terminate any Plan, except, in each of the foregoing cases, as disclosed in the Borrower’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or otherwise where the failure to so comply or the occurrence of any such event would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.9. Full Disclosure. All information furnished by the Borrower to the Agent or to the Lenders in writing prior to the Closing Date in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby does not, collectively, contain any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any material respect on and as of the Closing Date.

5.10. Regulation U. Margin stock (as defined in Regulation U) constitutes less than 25% of the value of those assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries which are subject to any limitation on sale, pledge, or other restriction hereunder, and no part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used, whether directly or indirectly, for any purpose that entails a violation of any of the Regulations of the Board, including Regulations T, U and X.

5.11. Plan Assets; Prohibited Transactions. The Borrower is not an entity deemed to hold “plan assets” within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101 of an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) which is subject to Title I of ERISA or any plan (within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Code), and neither the execution of this Agreement nor the making of Loans hereunder gives rise to a prohibited transaction within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

5.12. Environmental Matters. After due inquiry, the Borrower has concluded that as of the Closing Date neither compliance by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries with Environmental Laws nor liabilities arising thereunder, is reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the Closing Date, neither the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary has received any notice to the effect that its operations are not in material compliance with any of the requirements of applicable Environmental Laws or are the subject of any federal or state investigation evaluating whether any remedial action is needed to respond to a release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment, which non-compliance or remedial action is reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.13. Investment Company Act. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

5.14. Sanctions Laws and Regulations; Anti-Corruption Laws. None of the Borrower, or to the best of its knowledge any of its directors, officers, brokers or other agents acting or benefiting in any capacity in connection with this Agreement, or any of the Borrower’s Affiliatesis a Sanctioned Person. The Borrower has implemented and maintains in effect policies and procedures reasonably designed to promote compliance by the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers and employees with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions. The Borrower is, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and the Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ respective officers, directors and employees are, in compliance with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions in all material respects.

During the term of this Agreement, unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise consent in writing:

6.1. Financial Reporting. The Borrower will furnish to the Agent for each of the Lenders:

In lieu of furnishing the Agent the items referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (v) above, the Borrower may make available such items on the Borrower’s website at www.gd.com, at www.sec.gov or at such other websites as notified to the Agent, in each case to which each Lender and the Agent have access, which shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of delivery of such items in accordance with this Section.

6.2. Maintenance of Existence. The Borrower will preserve and maintain, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to preserve and maintain, its corporate existence; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall prevent the termination of the business or corporate existence of any Subsidiary which in the judgment of the Borrower is no longer necessary or desirable, a merger or consolidation of a Subsidiary into or with the Borrower (if the Borrower is the surviving corporation) or another Subsidiary or any merger, consolidation or transfer of assets permitted by Section 6.6.

6.3. Taxes. The Borrower will pay and discharge, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to pay and discharge, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its income or profits, or upon any property belonging to it, prior to the date on which penalties attach thereto, and all lawful material claims which, if unpaid, might become a Lien upon the property of the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that neither the Borrower nor any such Restricted Subsidiary shall be required to pay any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim (i) the payment of which is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings if adequate reserves in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles are maintained by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, (ii) not yet delinquent or (iii) the non-payment of which, if taken in the aggregate, would not be reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

6.4. Insurance. The Borrower will, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to, maintain with financially sound and reputable insurance companies insurance in such amounts and covering such risks as are customarily carried by companies engaged in similar businesses and owning similar properties in localities where the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary operates to the extent such insurance is reasonably available at commercially reasonable rates; provided, however, that the Borrower and its Subsidiaries may self-insure to the extent they deem reasonably prudent.

6.5. Compliance with Laws. The Borrower will, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to, comply with all laws, rules, regulations, orders, or judgments to which it may be subject including, without limitation, all Environmental Laws, except for such breaches, violations and noncompliance that would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower will maintain in effect policies and procedures reasonably designed to promote compliance by the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers and employees with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions.

6.6. Mergers, Etc. The Borrower will not merge or consolidate with or into, or convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of (whether in one transaction or in a series of transactions) all or substantially all of its assets (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) to, any Person; provided, however, that the Borrower may merge or consolidate with any other Person so long as the Borrower is the surviving corporation and so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such proposed transaction or would result therefrom.

6.9. Subsidiary Guarantees. The Borrower will (a) with respect to each Subsidiary, except for Material Service Resource Company, that is, or shall be obligated to become, a guarantor under the Indenture or, except for any Subsidiary subject to Section 956(d) of the Code, any other indenture or comparable instrument cause each such Subsidiary to execute the Guaranty (or an assumption agreement to the Guaranty) pursuant to which it agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of the Guaranty, and (b) deliver and cause such Persons identified in clause (a) above to deliver an opinion letter of counsel and documentation as to the corporate power and authority of such Subsidiary, each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a Default:

7.1 any representation or warranty made or deemed made by or on behalf of the Borrower to the Lenders or the Agent under or in connection with this Agreement, any Loan, or any certificate or document delivered in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be materially false on the date as of which made;

7.2 nonpayment of principal of any Loan when due, or nonpayment of interest upon any Loan or of any fee or other payment obligations under any of the Loan Documents when the same becomes due and payable and such failure is not remedied within five (5) Business Days after the Borrower receives written notice thereof from the Agent or any Lender;

7.5 (i) failure of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (A) to pay when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any principal or interest under the Existing 5-Year Eurocurrency Credit Agreement or the Existing 2018 Credit Agreement (in each case beyond the applicable grace period with respect thereto, if any) or (B) to pay when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any principal or interest with respect to Indebtedness aggregating in excess of $350,000,000 (beyond the applicable grace period with respect thereto, if any) (such indebtedness described in the foregoing clauses (A) and (B) being referred to as “Material Debt”); or (ii) any event or condition occurs that results in any Material Debt of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries becoming due prior to its scheduled maturity or otherwise requires the repurchase, redemption or defeasance thereof prior to its scheduled maturity; provided, however, that, in each case, “Material Debt” shall not include any Indebtedness other than obligations for borrowed money to the extent that such Indebtedness is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which adequate reserves have been set aside in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles;

7.6 the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall (i) have an order for relief entered with respect to it under the Federal bankruptcy laws as now or hereafter in effect, (ii) make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, (iii) apply for, seek, consent to, or acquiesce in, the appointment of a receiver, custodian, trustee, examiner, liquidator or similar official for it or any Substantial Portion of its Property, (iv) institute any proceeding seeking an order for relief under the Federal bankruptcy laws as now or hereafter in effect or seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking dissolution, winding up, liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of it or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or fail to file an answer or other pleading denying the material allegations of any such proceeding filed against it, (v) take any corporate or partnership action to authorize or effect any of the foregoing actions set forth in this Section 7.6 or (vi) fail to contest in good faith any appointment or proceeding described in Section 7.7;

7.8 the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall fail within 30 days to pay, bond or otherwise stay or discharge one or more judgments or orders for the payment of money (to the extent not covered by independent third-party insurance as to which the insurer does not dispute coverage) in excess of $350,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in currencies other than U.S. Dollars) in the aggregate, which judgment(s) is/are not stayed on appeal or otherwise being appropriately contested in good faith;

7.11 any guarantor of the Obligations shall terminate or revoke any of its obligations under the applicable Guaranty (other than pursuant to the terms hereof and thereof) or breach any of the material terms of such Guaranty.

8.1. Acceleration. If any Default described in Section 7.6 or 7.7 occurs with respect to the Borrower, the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder shall automatically terminate and the Obligations shall immediately become due and payable without any election or action on the part of the Agent or any Lender. If any other Default occurs and is continuing, the Required Lenders (or the Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) may terminate or suspend the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder, or declare the Obligations to be due and payable, or both, whereupon the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which the Borrower hereby expressly waives.

If, within 30 days after acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations or termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder as a result of any Default (other than any Default as described in Section 7.6 or 7.7 with respect to the Borrower) and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the Obligations due shall have been obtained or entered, the Required Lenders (in their sole discretion) so direct, the Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower, rescind and annul such acceleration and/or termination.

8.2. Amendments. The Required Lenders (or the Agent with the consent in writing of the Required Lenders) and the Borrower may enter into agreements supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding or modifying any provisions to the Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or the Borrower hereunder or waiving any Default hereunder; provided, however, that no such supplemental agreement shall, without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby:

8.3. Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission of the Lenders or the Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and the making of a Loan notwithstanding the existence of a Default or the inability of the Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to such Loan 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 8.2, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All remedies contained in the Loan Documents or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Agent and the Lenders until the Obligations have been paid in full.

9.1. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in this Agreement shall survive the making of the Loans herein contemplated as to their truth and correctness as of the respective dates as of which they were made.

9.2. Headings. Section headings in the Loan Documents are for convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the provisions of the Loan Documents.

9.3. Entire Agreement. The Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding among the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders and supersede all prior agreements and understandings among the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders relating to the subject matter thereof other than the Fee Letter.

9.4. Several Obligations; Benefits of this Agreement. The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and no Lender shall be the partner or agent of any other (except to the extent to which the Agent is authorized to act as such). The failure of any Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall not be construed so as to confer any right or benefit upon any Person other than the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns.

9.5. Expenses; Indemnification. (i) The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Agent for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel to the Agent) paid or incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, syndication, distribution and administration of the Loan Documents, any waiver or consent hereunder or any amendment hereof. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Agent and the Lenders for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (which shall be limited, in the case of counsel fees and expenses, to the reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of (x) one counsel to the Administrative Agent (and one local counsel to the Administrative Agent in each relevant jurisdiction), (y) one counsel to all of the other Lenders taken as a whole (and one local counsel to the Lenders in each relevant jurisdiction) and (z) solely in the event of an actual or perceived conflict of interest (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender(s)), one additional counsel (and one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction) for each group of similarly affected Lenders taken as a whole) paid or incurred by the Agent or any Lender in connection with the enforcement of the Loan Documents.

As used in this Section 9.15(ii), “Related Indemnified Person” of an Indemnitee means (1) any Controlling Person or Controlled Affiliate of such Indemnitee, (2) the respective directors, officers or employees of such Indemnitee or any of its Controlling Persons or Controlled Affiliates and (3) the respective agents, advisors or representatives of such Indemnitee or any of its Controlling Persons or Controlled Affiliates, in the case of this clause

(3), acting on behalf of or at the instructions of such Indemnitee, Controlling Person or such Controlled Affiliate; provided that each reference to a Controlling Person, Controlled Affiliate, director, officer or employee in this sentence pertains to a Controlling Person, Controlled Affiliate, director, officer or employee involved in the structuring, arrangement, negotiation or syndication of the credit facility evidenced by this Agreement. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 9.5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(iii) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than thirty (30) days after written demand therefor.

9.6. Accounting. Except as provided to the contrary herein, all accounting terms used herein shall be interpreted and all accounting determinations hereunder shall be made in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles; provided that, if the Borrower notifies the Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the date hereof in Agreement Accounting Principles or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in Agreement Accounting Principles or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of Agreement Accounting Principles as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith.

9.7. Severability of Provisions. Any provision in any Loan Document that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of all Loan Documents are declared to be severable.

9.8. Nonliability of Lenders. The relationship between the Borrower on the one hand and the Lenders and the Agent on the other hand shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Neither the Agent nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Borrower. Neither the Agent nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower to review or inform the Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrower’s business or operations. The Borrower agrees that neither the Agent nor any Lender shall have liability to the Borrower (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by the Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such losses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought.

9.9. Confidentiality. The Agent and each Lender agrees to hold any non-public information (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry) which it may receive from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement in confidence, except for disclosure (i) to its Affiliates and to other

Lenders and their respective Affiliates (it being agreed that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential), (ii) to legal counsel, accountants, and other professional advisors to the Agent or such Lender or to a Transferee (it being agreed that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential), (iii) to regulatory officials purporting to have jurisdiction over the Agent or such Lender or its Affiliates, (iv) to any Person to the extent required by law or regulation or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (v) in connection with any suit, action or proceeding relating to the enforcement by the Agent or such Lender of its rights or remedies hereunder, (vi) to such Lender’s direct or indirect contractual counterparties in swap agreements or to legal counsel, accountants and other professional advisors to such counterparties (it being agreed that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential), (vii) permitted by Section 12.4, (viii) with the consent of the Borrower and (ix) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section.

EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ALL INFORMATION RECEIVED FROM, OR ON BEHALF OF, THE BORROWER OR ANY SUBSIDIARY RELATING TO THE BORROWER AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR THEIR BUSINESS, OTHER THAN ANY SUCH INFORMATION THAT IS AVAILABLE TO THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER ON A NONCONFIDENTIAL BASIS PRIOR TO DISCLOSURE BY THE BORROWER OR ANY SUBSIDIARY (SUCH INFORMATION, “INFORMATION”), IN EACH CASE FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT, MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BORROWER, THE SUBSIDIARIES AND THEIR AFFILIATES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE BORROWER OR THE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE BORROWER, THE SUBSIDIARIES AND THEIR AFFILIATES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWER AND THE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

9.10. Nonreliance. Each Lender hereby represents that it is not relying on or looking to any margin stock (as defined in Regulation U of the Board) for the repayment of the Loans provided for herein.

9.11. USA Patriot Act Notification. The following notification is provided to the Borrower pursuant to Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act of 2001, 31 U.S.C. Section 5318:

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT. To help the government of the United States of America fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each Person that opens an account, including any deposit account, treasury management account, loan, other extension of credit, or other financial services product. Accordingly, when the Borrower opens an account, the Agent and the Lenders will ask for the Borrower’s name, tax identification number, business address, and other information that will allow the Agent and the Lenders to identify the Borrower. The Agent and the Lenders may also ask to see the Borrower’s legal organizational documents or other identifying documents.

9.12. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

10.1. Appointment; Nature of Relationship. JPMorgan is hereby appointed by each of the Lenders as its contractual representative (herein referred to as the “Agent”) hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes the Agent to act as the contractual representative of such Lender with the rights and duties expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. The Agent agrees to act as such contractual

representative upon the express conditions contained in this Article X. Notwithstanding the use of the defined term “Agent,” it is expressly understood and agreed that the Agent shall not have any fiduciary responsibilities to any Lender by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and that the Agent is merely acting as the contractual representative of the Lenders with only those duties as are expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In its capacity as the Lenders’ contractual representative, the Agent (i) does not hereby assume any fiduciary duties to any of the Lenders and (ii) is acting as an independent contractor, the rights and duties of which are limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each of the Lenders hereby agrees to assert no claim against the Agent on any agency theory or any other theory of liability for breach of fiduciary duty, all of which claims each Lender hereby waives. Except as expressly set forth herein, the Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

10.2. Powers. The Agent shall have and may exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Agent by the terms of each thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The 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 Agent.

10.3. General Immunity. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to the Borrower, the Lenders or any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith except to the extent such action or inaction is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person.

10.4. No Responsibility for Loans, Recitals, etc. Neither the 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 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 Agent; (d) the existence or possible existence of any Default or Unmatured Default; and (e) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness, sufficiency or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection therewith. The Agent shall have no duty to disclose to the Lenders information that is not required to be furnished by the Borrower to the Agent at such time, but is voluntarily furnished by the Borrower to the Agent (either in its capacity as Agent or in its individual capacity).

10.5. Action on Instructions of Lenders. The 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 (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 8.2), 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 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 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.

10.6. Employment of Agents and Counsel. The Agent may execute any of its duties as Agent hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the Lenders, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. The Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning the contractual arrangement between the Agent and the Lenders and all matters pertaining to the Agent’s duties hereunder and under any other Loan Document.

10.7. Reliance on Documents; Counsel. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any Note, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, 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 Agent, which counsel may be employees of the Agent.

10.8. Agent’s Reimbursement and Indemnification. The Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify the Agent ratably in proportion to their respective Commitments (or, if the Commitments have been terminated, after the Commitment Termination Date, in proportion to the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure) (i) for any amounts not reimbursed or indemnified by the Borrower for which the Agent is entitled to reimbursement or indemnification by the Borrower under the Loan Documents, (ii) for any other expenses incurred by the Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in connection with the collection and enforcement of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, for any expenses incurred by the Agent in connection with any dispute between the 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 Agent in any action or proceeding 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, whether or not the Agent is a party thereto (including, without limitation, for any such amounts incurred by or asserted against the Agent in connection with any dispute between the 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, however, 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 Agent and (ii) any indemnification required pursuant to Section 3.5(viii) 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 Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Unmatured Default hereunder unless the Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement describing such Default or Unmatured Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Agent receives such a notice, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

10.10. Rights as a Lender. In the event the Agent is a Lender, the Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder and under any other Loan Document with respect to its Commitment and its Loans as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, at any time when the Agent is a Lender, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Agent in its individual capacity. The 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 Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in which the Borrower or such Subsidiary is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person.

10.11. Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements prepared by the Borrower 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 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.

10.12. Successor Agent. The Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower, such resignation to be effective upon the appointment of a successor Agent or, if no successor Agent has been appointed, forty-five days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its intention to resign. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and which consent shall not be required if a Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint, on behalf of the Lenders, a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders within thirty days after the resigning Agent’s giving notice of its intention to resign, then the resigning Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Lenders, a successor Agent. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Agent may at any time without the consent of the Borrower or any Lender, appoint any of its Affiliates which is a financial institution as a successor Agent hereunder. If the Person serving as Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Agent and, with the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and which consent shall not be required if a Default has occurred and is continuing), appoint a successor Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date. If the Agent has resigned or been removed and no successor Agent has been appointed, the Lenders may perform all the duties of the Agent

hereunder and the Borrower shall make all payments in respect of the Obligations to the applicable Lender and for all other purposes shall deal directly with the Lenders. No successor Agent shall be deemed to be appointed hereunder until such successor Agent has accepted the appointment. Any such successor Agent shall be a commercial bank having capital and retained earnings of at least $100,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Agent. Upon the effectiveness of the resignation or removal of the Agent, the resigning or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents and may, at the Borrower’s option, be replaced as a Lender pursuant to Section 2.21. After the effectiveness of the resignation or removal of an Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall continue in effect for the benefit of such Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

10.13. Agent’s Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent, for its own account, the fees agreed to by the Borrower and the Agent pursuant to the Fee Letter between the Borrower and the Agent, or as otherwise agreed from time to time.

10.14. Delegation to Affiliates. The Borrower and the Lenders agree that the 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 Agent is entitled under Articles IX and X.

10.15. Arrangers, Documentation Agents and Syndication Agents. The parties hereto acknowledge that the institutions named on the cover of this Agreement as Arrangers, Documentation Agents and Syndication Agent hold such titles in name only, and that neither any Arranger nor any Documentation Agent nor the Syndication Agent shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgments with respect to the Arrangers, the Documentation Agents and the Syndication Agent as it makes with respect to the Agent in Section 10.11.

10.16. Release of Guarantors. In the event (a) of the merger, consolidation or sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of a Guarantor (other than a merger or consolidation with, or sale or disposition of assets to, the Borrower or another Subsidiary of the Borrower), or (b) there occurs a transfer, sale or other disposition of the voting securities (or other ownership interests) of a Guarantor whereby such Guarantor ceases to constitute a Subsidiary of the Borrower, or (c) any Guarantor shall have no Contingent Obligations (other than Contingent Obligations under the Guaranty) with respect to the obligations or liabilities of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (whether funded or unfunded), in each case in accordance with the terms hereof, then in any such case such Guarantor or the entity acquiring the assets (in the event of the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor) shall be released and relieved of any obligations under the Guaranty. Upon delivery by the Borrower to the Agent of a certificate of an Authorized Officer certifying to the Agent and the Lenders the foregoing, such Guarantor shall be discharged from all further liability and

obligation under the Guaranty and the Agent shall execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty; provided, however, that (i) the Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Agent’s opinion, would expose the Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Guarantor without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations (other than the Obligations of the released Guarantor), any other Guarantor’s obligations under the Guaranty, or, if applicable, any obligations of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in respect of the proceeds of any such sale retained by the Borrower or any Subsidiary.

11.1. Setoff. Upon (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default and (b) the Obligations becoming due and payable, or termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder, in each case pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.1, and in addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of the Lenders under applicable law, any and all deposits (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender to or for the credit or account of the Borrower may be offset and applied toward the payment of the Obligations owing to such Lender, whether or not the Obligations, or any part hereof, shall then be due. Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower after any such offset and application made by such Lender or any Affiliate of such Lender; provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such offset or application under this Section.

11.2. Ratable Payments. If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it upon its share of any Advance (other than payments received pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Lender having a share of such Advance, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of the Loans comprising that Advance held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its ratable proportion of Loans comprising that Advance. 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 ratably in proportion to their Loans. In case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made.

12.1. Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except that (i) the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance with Section 12.3. Notwithstanding clause (ii) of this Section, any Lender may at

any time, without the consent of the Borrower or the Agent, assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender; provided, however, that no such assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank or such other central bank shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder. The 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 in the case of an assignment thereof or, in the case of any other transfer, a written notice of the transfer is filed with the Agent. The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each such written notice and acceptance of assignment delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Any assignee or transferee of the rights to any Loan or any Note agrees by acceptance of such transfer or 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, transferee or assignee of the rights to such Loan.

12.2.1. Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more Eligible Assignees (“Participants”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents. 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 Loans and the holder of any Note issued to it in evidence thereof for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and the Borrower and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.5(v) from a Participant shall be delivered to the Lender who sells the participation). Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under 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 commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the

extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103-1(c) and Proposed Treasury Regulations Section 1.163-5(b) (or any amended or successor version). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Participant whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participating interest for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

12.2.2. 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 other than any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Loan or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest which forgives principal, interest or fees or reduces the interest rate or fees payable with respect to any such Loan or Commitment, extends the Maturity Date or the Commitment Termination Date, or postpones any date fixed for any regularly-scheduled payment of principal of, or interest or fees on, any such Loan or Commitment.

12.2.3. Benefit of Setoff. The Borrower agrees 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, however, 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.

12.3.1. Permitted Assignments. Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (“Purchasers”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents. Such assignment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit E or in such other form as may be agreed to by the parties thereto. The consent of the Borrower shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective with respect to a Purchaser which is not a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender (provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof); provided, however, that if a Default has occurred and is continuing, the consent of the Borrower shall not be required. The consent of the Agent shall be required prior to any assignment becoming effective. Any required consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Each such assignment shall (unless it is to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or each of the Borrower and the Agent otherwise consents) be in an amount not less than the lesser of (i) $5,000,000 or (ii) the remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment (calculated as at the date of such assignment), or if the Commitment Termination Date has occurred, the remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Outstanding Credit Exposure; provided, however, that if a Default has occurred and is continuing, the consent of the Borrower shall not be required.

12.3.2. Effect; Effective Date. Upon (i) delivery to the Agent of a notice of assignment, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit I to Exhibit E (a “Notice of Assignment”), together with any consents required by Section 12.3.1, and (ii) payment of a $3,500 fee to the Agent for processing such assignment, such assignment shall become effective on the effective date specified in such Notice of Assignment. The Notice of Assignment shall contain a representation by the Purchaser to the effect that none of the consideration used to make the purchase of the Commitment and Loans under the applicable assignment agreement are “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 hereto, and no further consent or action by the Borrower, the Lenders or the Agent shall be required to release the transferor Lender with respect to the percentage of the Aggregate Commitment and Loans assigned to such Purchaser. Upon the consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 12.3.2, the transferor Lender, the Agent and the Borrower 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 Commitments, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment.

12.3.3. Designated Lender. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 12.3, any Lender may from time to time elect to designate an Eligible Designee to provide all or any part of the Loans to be made by such Lender pursuant to this Agreement, provided that the designation of an Eligible Designee by any Lender for purposes of this Section 12.3 shall be subject to the approval of the Borrower and the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Upon the execution by the parties to each such designation of an agreement in the form of Exhibit H hereto (a “Designation Agreement”) and the acceptance thereof by the Borrower and the Agent, the Eligible Designee shall become a Designated Lender for purposes of this Agreement. The Designating Lender shall thereafter have the right to permit the Designated Lender to provide all or a portion of the Loans to be made by the Designating Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the making of such Loans or portion thereof shall satisfy the obligation of the Designating Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan was made by the Designating Lender.

Reference is made to the 364-Day Credit Agreement dated as of March 16, 2018 (as amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among General Dynamics Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Agent for the Lenders. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as therein defined.

(the “Designating Lender”), (the “Designated Lender”), and the Borrower agree as follows:

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Designation Agreement to be executed by their respective officers hereunto duly authorized, as of the date first above written.

THIS GUARANTY (this “Guaranty”) is made as of March 16, 2018, by and among each of the Subsidiaries of the Borrower (as defined below) identified on the signature pages hereto (the “Initial Guarantors” and along with any additional Subsidiaries of the Borrower which become parties to this Guaranty by executing a supplement hereto in the form attached as Annex I, the “Guarantors”) in favor of the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Holders of Obligations (as defined below), under the Credit Agreement referred to below.

WHEREAS, GENERAL DYNAMICS CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the institutions from time to time parties thereto as Lenders, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in its capacity as contractual representative (the “Agent”) for itself and the other Lenders, have entered into a certain 364-Day Credit Agreement dated as of March 16, 2018 (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, and as in effect from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), providing, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, for extensions of credit and other financial accommodations to be made by the Lenders to the Borrower;

WHEREAS, in consideration of the direct and indirect financial and other support that the Borrower has provided, and such direct and indirect financial and other support as the Borrower may in the future provide, to the Guarantors, and in order to induce the Lenders and the Agent to enter into the Credit Agreement, each of the Guarantors is willing to guarantee the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Definitions. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement and not otherwise defined herein have, as used herein, the respective meanings provided for therein. For purposes of this Guaranty, “Holders of Obligations” means the holders of the Obligations from time to time and shall include (i) each Lender in respect of its Loans, (ii) the Agent and the Lenders in respect of all other present and future obligations and liabilities of the Borrower of every type and description arising under or in connection with the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iii) each indemnified party under Section 9.5 of the Credit Agreement in respect of the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to such Person hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (iv) their respective successors, transferees and assigns.

SECTION 2. Guaranty. Each of the Guarantors, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, fully, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees (each, a “Guarantee”), to each Holder of Obligations and its successors and assigns (i) the full and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Advances when due, whether at maturity, by

acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, and all other monetary obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (the “Guaranteed Obligations”) and (ii) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 3. Obligations Unconditional. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional irrespective of the absence or existence of any action to enforce the same, the recovery of any judgment against the Borrower or any other Guarantor (except to the extent such judgment is paid) or any waiver or amendment of the provisions of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document to the extent that any such action or any similar action would otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor (except that each such waiver or amendment shall be effective in accordance with its terms).

SECTION 4. Guaranty of Payment. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that each Guarantee constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance and not merely of collection.

SECTION 5. Waivers. Each of the Guarantors further agrees to waive presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the Borrower or any other Person, and also waives diligence, notice of acceptance of its Guarantee, presentment, demand for payment, notice of protest for nonpayment, the filing of claims with a court in the event of merger or bankruptcy of the Borrower or any other Person and any right to require a proceeding first against the Borrower or any other Person. The obligations of the Guarantors shall not be affected by any failure or policy on the part of any Holder of Obligations to exercise any right or remedy under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document.

SECTION 6. Satisfaction. The obligation of each Guarantor to make any payment hereunder may be satisfied by causing the Borrower or any other Person to make such payment.

SECTION 7. Reinstatement. If any Holder of Obligations is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Borrower or any Guarantor, or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to any of the Borrower or any Guarantor, any amount paid by any of them to such Holder of Obligations, the Guarantee of such Guarantor, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

SECTION 8. Maximum Amount. Any term or provision of this Guaranty to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of each of the Guarantees shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by the relevant Guarantor without rendering the relevant Guarantee under this Guaranty voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

SECTION 9. Assignment. This Guaranty shall be binding upon and enforceable against each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Holders of Obligations.

SECTION 10. Third Party Beneficiaries. This Guaranty is intended for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Holders of Obligations and their respective successors and assigns and shall not be enforceable by any other party.

SECTION 11. Governing Law. This Guaranty shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York, but giving effect to federal laws applicable to national banks.

SECTION 12. Notices. Any notice, request or other communication hereunder to the Borrower or any Guarantor shall be in writing and be duly given, effective upon receipt, if delivered personally or sent by prepaid registered mail to its address or by telecopier to the number set forth below:

SECTION 13. No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Guaranty. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Guaranty shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Guaranty.

SECTION 14. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Guaranty shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Guaranty shall be prohibited by or invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Guaranty.

SECTION 15. Merger. This Guaranty represents the final agreement of each of the Guarantors with respect to the matters contained herein and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior or contemporaneous agreements, or subsequent oral agreements, between the Guarantor and any Holder of Obligations or the Agent.

SECTION 16. Headings. Section headings in this Guaranty are for convenience of reference only and shall not govern the interpretation of any provision of this Guaranty.

SECTION 17. Taxes. Section 3.5 of the Credit Agreement shall be applicable, mutatis mutandis, to all payments required by any Guarantor under this Guaranty.

SECTION 18. Release of Guarantors. In the event (a) of the merger, consolidation or sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of a Guarantor (other than a merger or consolidation with, or sale or disposition of assets to, the Borrower or another Subsidiary of the Borrower), or (b) there occurs a transfer, sale or other disposition of the voting securities (or other ownership interests) of a Guarantor whereby such Guarantor ceases to constitute a Subsidiary of the Borrower, or (c) any Guarantor shall have no Contingent Obligations (other

than Contingent Obligations under the Guaranty) with respect to the obligations or liabilities of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (whether funded or unfunded), then in any such case such Guarantor or the entity acquiring the assets (in the event of the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor) shall be released and relieved of any obligations under its Guarantee. Upon delivery by the Borrower to the Agent of a certificate of an Authorized Officer certifying to the Agent and the Lenders the foregoing, such Guarantor shall be discharged from all further liability and obligation under this Guaranty and the Agent shall execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee; provided, however, that (i) the Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Agent’s opinion, would expose the Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Guarantor without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations (other than the Obligations of the released Guarantor), any other Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty, or, if applicable, any obligations of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in respect of the proceeds of any such sale retained by the Borrower or any Subsidiary.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Initial Guarantors have caused this Guaranty to be duly executed by its authorized officer as of the day and year first above written.
